...so without foreign rice, you have no Nigerian rice? What kind of update is this?

What do you mean by alternative to rice?

For Christmas..
Who rice help... Give me confirm pounded yam and osiki (vegetable&melon) soup with all the peripherals (ponmo, stock fish, bushmeat (grasscutter) or ogunfe)

I can go for months without tasting rice... I don't even go to eateries or canteen and order for rice... It's my last option...

Let them sell it for 50k per bag, na dem sabi...

APC supporters are dull people, they are now spreading the message that rice is a luxury see how we are disgracing ourselves, you can't support Buhari and use your brain optimally

lefulefu:
rice is not really an oyibo based meal.if u want to eat like white ppl just be eating donuts,hamburgers and chicken everyday

Chubhie:
Dangote go don increase the price of his spaghetti to reflect market demands.

The double tragedy is that a new government will come and open the borders. No be naija?

after they open the border the price go still remain like that

ednut1:
local rice is expensive to produce and mill. Just like innoson cars costs too

when government didn't put the basic amenities in place before closing border

In recent times the price of rice has increased due to the closure of the Nation's land borders preventing foreign rice from coming through such channels. Rice which used to be around 12,000 naira per 50kg bag is now over 25,000 naira.

It's less than two months to the Christmas and New Year celebration and it's evident that most Nigerian home are stocking up on food items including Rice.

Rice has always been a staple food for Nigerians and also a festive food. It can be used to make different kind of meal e.g Popular Nigerian Jollof and fried rice which are the preferred meal to be served to guests at parties, special occasions and on festive days.

I was at ShopRite Ota yesterday and I noticed the way people are rushing to buy rice and other foods items due to their ongoing discount promo on groceries.

With these ridiculous hike in the amount of rice, Which meal do you think can replace Rice's and state your reasons?

I'm waiting for your responses...

Pounded yam and Isapa

Semovita plus Efo riro

Porridge with titus

Amala with ewedu plus point n kill

Tuwo with gbegiri

African Salad

Well...I already tot of skipping rice this xmas not because of the hike in price but because I'm tired of same old rice.

I plan on making small chops and goat meat pepper soup. Thats all! Rice HSA become boring.

Alternatively

Pounded yam with correct afang or Ogbono soup.

Spaghetti can suffice.

Just make spaghetti Bolognese with carrots, spring onions, green peppers, peas with whichever animal...chicken, beef. Very easy and timely option.

Ukodo(Yam porridge with Chicken or beef garnished with ozziza leaves with udah,) 100% better than rice.

what is she even saying? in the first place why should rice be expensive in nigeria? only in nigeria when u eat chicken u are regarded as a rich man and also in nigeria when u eat beef u are regarded as a member of the wealthy class...and yet chicken,beef are just basic necesecities in other countries.now rice wey be the cheapest commodity wants to be a meal for the wealthy in nigeria ..chai naija.

we can suppliment our african dishes with rice but that doesnt mean rice should be an expensive commodity.

This is serious. But on a normal note beans supposed hold body pass rice going by the nutrient. Rice dey quick dey break down pass beans. It dey take time before beans dey break down and used up by the body that's why e dey stay body pass rice wey be carbohydrate. But it be like say furnace dey that ur belle o wey dey help break ogbonje beans so fast for ur tummy. Like me, I fit eat beans beans beans every day without getting tired o.

I dey hardly dey cook stew self. Sometimes if I cook stew e dey spoil cuz I no fit dey finish am cuz I go still dey cruise ma fried beans dey go. I dey fry my beans, and e dey sweet gan. Sometimes I dey top am with moi moi. If I finish that one, na bye bye to hunger for that day cuz even if I get up the next day, I go just stay like that o till that kind 1pm before I go begin feel hunger o and I like am no be small.

Our body chemistries different sha that's why some food dey stay some people body tay pass some. Na so life just be.
