That is the result a nitwit president will get when his government,without providing logistics for local production,keeps banning what Nigeria don't produce.He will only give room for desperate smugglers to be importing substandard products.

if government can't provide logistics for local production. that shows there is a room for you to exploit and make it. stop complaining.

you are really so dumb and naive that you don't know that the essence of most ban by the govt is to allow local produce dominate the country.

Is that the reason why your brothers must be smuggling poison? Keep the names calling rolling. If president bans an agricultural product, right thinking people should know that the President is trying to create jobs and opportunities. And not to indulge in smuggling poison. What happens to smuggling the real product if you must smuggle at all cost? Why go for poison? Yes of course, huge profits is the sole reason.

That guy called Cumshot is so dumb. Rice is a biannual crop, we don't need more than a year or two years to attain self sufficiency if people really want to take the advantage of this current ban on importation of rice. And here he is, running his mouth like tap water.

How did plastic rice enter nigeria? The same custom officials that discovered it knows the source. The plastic rice did not fly into nigeria just like that, customs officials are involve in smuggling actvities The nigeria boarder is very porous. Let the customs official do proper policing at the boarder

we all hear of the plastic rice but what is the ministry of information, NOA doing to enlighten the general public on how to safeguard themselves from falling victims of this rice..

Also how does the rice looks like,taste, its color when cooked etc should be the major concern.. This awareness will help the gullible Nigerians,uneducated folks..

Radio,television, social media, newspaper should have been used to informed the populace..

the dangers of consuming this useless plastic rice is my major concern now..

may God help us in this country..

Nigerians have been advised to be vigilant of the activities of smugglers at this yuletide season as all kinds of consumable are being smuggled into the country.

Controller incharge of Federal Operations Unit Zone ‘A’ Ikeja Lagos, Haruna Mammud, gave this advice during a press briefing on the seizure of suspected Plastic Rice by Officers of the Unit.

He said, “Today am happy to tell you that after our last week press briefing, we intensified our operations in search of the alleged “plastic rice” and with the support of some patriotic Nigerians most especially a member of the forth estate of the realm, we were able to locate where this rice were stored for distribution to the public as yuletide gift”.

“As I speak with you, we have successfully evacuated 102 bags of 25 kg branded Best Tomato Rice has no NAFDAC Batch Number and manufacture/expiring dates. Preliminary analysis on the rice after boiling shows that the rice is sticky and plastic in nature. We are still investigating to ascertain how many of this rice has been circulated and how best to retrieve it in order to protect and safeguard the health of Nigerians and to bring those behind it to book”.

Compt. Haruna praised the commitment and diligence of the officers and men of the FOU ‘A’ for living up to their responsibilities. He also appreciated well-meaning Nigerians who provided timely information that led to this discovery and seizure.

He advised economic saboteurs who see yuletide season as peak period for their nefarious acts to desist from such illegal business as the Unit has devised other operational modalities that will make them run for their monies and count their loses.
