Nigeria Says It's World 2nd Largest Rice Producer. Facts Disagree (pictorial) by Sabasi: 5:52pm On Feb 19, 2017 |
Nigeria is now the second largest rice producer in the world, Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Malam Garba Shehu, has proclaimed. He said this at a special interactive session with the youths organized by Citizens Support for Good Governance in Nigeria (SGGN) in Abuja during the weekend. “No country will develop when you have to import virtually everything, including tooth pick and tissue paper. All the food we eat in this country was being imported. So, all of the money earned was just going to buy food. But as I speak to you now, Nigeria just achieved the record of the second largest producer of rice in the world. The rice revolution just started a year ago. Some of you from Nasarawa know the kind of things going on there. A newspaper did an investigation in Kebbi and they found out that there were 48,000 new millionaires in Kebbi state alone last year for growing rice. This over-reliance on oil has killed this country and we cannot continue like this. So, the diversification of the economy means more money will be in the hands of ordinary Nigerians. And there will be widespread prosperity all over the country.” Mallam Garba Shehu did not give any data to support his assertions, So here are the facts. Rank Country Annual Production (1000 metric tons) 2016 1 China 144560 2 India 104800 3 Indonesia 35560 4 Bangladesh 34500 5 Vietnam 28234 6 Thailand 18750 7 Burma 12600 8 Philippines 11915 9 Brazil 8465 10 Japan 7842 In the era of "alternative facts" AKA LIES, which even US President Trump has championed, we believe it is our duty as responsible investigative journalists to bring you the facts, no matter whose ox is gored. FACTS ARE STUBBORN THINGS. CONSCIENCE IS INDEED AN OPEN WOUND AND ONLY THE TRUTH CAN HEAL IT. https://nigeriacircle.com/nigeria-says-its-world-2nd-largest-rice-producer-facts-disagree-pictorial/
