If this is true then a bag of rice should be N2000 in Nigeria. So I ask, where is d rice? If the whites can travel all the way from Britain to say the bloody and jihadist elections of the animals in Nigeria is credible, free and fair. How come a hungry, sinking fulani man in Benin Republic. Same way they told u they're out of recession
Mad people, animals.

NOC1:


For the past 6 months the Rice I am eating is locally made and processed in Nigeria.
No sand, charf and does not spoil over the night.
God bless Nigeria.

You aren't far from the truth go to the market what you will see is local rice, even the rice bagged in foreign rice bags are all local rice.

lexy2014:


Has ebonyi not been producing rice b4 2015?

He asked for confirmation and I showed him.

Myde4naija:
why not, ask from your friend up north to confirm.


If you stayed in the south you will agree with me that we are not doing enough when it come to agriculture.

I don't need 2 ask my friend from up north. Am asking u. What are ur findings?

How are we not doing enough in d south when it comes to agriculture?

Lymasaba:

Stores, Kitchen , belly , toilet bowl or simply ask google

They query good news but accept bad news with joy so that they say we told you

lexy2014:


Has ebonyi not been producing rice b4 2015?

Don't mind him.Ebonyi rice has been a very popular brand in Nigeria from onset before the birth of the Jihadist occupying Asorock.

"Abakaliki rice"

If you know you know. War-ravaged Rwanda of those days is developing exponentially recently, and we are here celebrating rice production. We deserve better!

Isoduwa:
Mumu people na rice Una dey overtake last time Zimbabwe beat Nigerian for the most valuable passport

NOC1:


He asked for confirmation and I showed him.

U did well by confirming that u have local rice at home. Am not against what u did. Now based on d report as presented in d article, was ebonyi not producing rice b4 2015?

Afonja007:
Nigeria Are funny people, USA is world biggest producer of beef meat there in America you will eat meat till your fat like yokozuna but here in Nigeria you will hear something like this, Nigeria is African biggest rice producer for you to see the rice na mirage

You are actually living in a dungeon, not Nigeria

Ijaycool:
This is true.
I wish to congratulate the Government who initiated the route that led to this.

Although let's not over blow it, it was embarrassing that Egypt produces more than us.
1. Nigeria is like 13 times more populated than Egypt hence we normally should gap them wella.
2. Rice is a more primary food in Nigerian diet than Egyptians. It's like congratulating Lagos for making more Amala than Enugu does.

Lol. Funny analogy.

wildernessVoice:


There is nothing like hate.
We want to see affordable rice in the market and not claim of large production.

Go and play with sand

lexy2014:


It's true how? How can we b producing 4million tonnes& all we c in market stalls is Thailand?

Those Thailand rice you are buying in the market 70% of them are local rice bagged in foreign rice bag, that is how rice sellers make large profits because they know that we preferred foreign rice to local rice, moreover you can't distinguished some local rice from their foreign counterpart.

chudez0147:
Since i borrowed #400 from MTN, they keep sending me messages like recharge #400 and win 3 houses in Lekki.

They think i don't have sense abi?

Dont mind them.

So were u there when they were rebagging d 70% of local rice into brand new branded stallion bags? Who told u that local rice& foreign is indistinguishable?

adecz:
Ghost rice!!
And Bubu thinks all is true.

Its available in markets with remarkable improvement, they just need to keep working on making it much better.

Jamestown123:
But bag of rice is still 14 to 15k

it was more than 25k before now. So expect more drop in price as production continues to improve.

Amossity:
When we are importing rice, we obtain it as low as 8k to 8500 per bag, now we are producing and even overtaking base on our naira land reporter and rice is still being sold at 19k to 19500 per back.. Brother Buhari abeg how you take calculate am... NXT level calculation or wat

Do you know that the price of dollar will affect the price other all commodities?

Same here. We dont even read properly anymore to comprehend the fact before we start adding sentiments, taking sides in political fights wey no concern us.
shame

Guruindahouse:
Egypt was producing 4.3 tonnes annually but production has reduction by almost 40 percent this year, attributed to the Egyptian government decision to limit cultivated to preserve water resources

Am I the only one that read the reason why we overtook rice production in Egypt?

lexy2014:


So were u there when they rebagging d 70% of local rice into brand new branded stallion bags? Who told u that local rice& foreign is indistinguishable?

Don't mind them, they are Sai Barber zomb**s

keep overtaking and let's keep dying of hunger.

big fools.

Joromi12:
except for ofada i have never seen local rice in the market na

because they are well branded now. Olam rice is made in Nigeria. No different with the foreign ones.

Myde4naija:
go to the north you will definitely be convinced that this news isn't fake at all.

Very correct. Its circulating and becoming popular in the north even among the elites.

Scam and lies.
That was how Jonathan deceived gullible Nigerians that there is cassava bread everywhere.

Who has eaten the rice here?
Lake rice I know is imported rice, packaged in Nigeria. If truly the production of rice is real, yes we have locally made rice here, but the rice can't feed Lagos for just a day.


Nigerians and the way they hug lies be like 5 & 6.

Eeser:

13 times take style too much sha.
Just reduce small.

I meant 3, no mind me. I have fixed it.

my friend you don't know what you are talking, can you just google the population of Egypt before you came here to disgraced yourself

Ijaycool:

Meanwhile what a rational government should do, is instead of banning importation of rice, make Nigerian rice better, cheaper and healthier, then let's see how Thai rice will sell.
...but a government of Cows will close the boarder against rice which is primary Nigerian diet, without putting in place facilities that will carter for the shortage.
Hence they import rice illegally through unthinkable unethical, even poisonous process.
Laslas na to kill us been dey their mind

If Nigeria should triple her rice production quantity, it will not be sufficient, if relatively affordable, to meet the Nigerian market demand.
#Keep it up

Bodingo:

Lets confirm your claim, can you snap the bag or the rice and upload the picture asap

I really don't understand how you guys can't find Ngerian stone-free rice in the market? Who dey eat foreign rice these days? Stone-free sweet rice is bae.

Joromi12:
except for ofada i have never seen local rice in the market na

in Abeokuta, Nigeria rice dey kuto market just ask for it u will definitely get it

mchc1001:
my friend you don't know what you are talking, can you just google the population of Egypt before you came here to disgraced yourself

I already replied someone to state that I meant 3, not 13. No vex

And you think you are wiser than the people in government?
If they continue allowing importation do you think people will want to go into rice agriculture?
If you even think Buhari is dumb, give the Vice an element of doubt.
Stop sitting in the corner of your room & start criticising, you have no knowledge of what is going on
