But our problem lies with the middle men. They'll buy it cheap and sell at a higher prizes!

No one is deceiving anybody, there has definitely been an improvement in local rice production and it's a gradual process with the first and most important step being making sure local producers of rice are encouraged and what other better way can we get that done than making sure the careless inflow of foreign rice through our borders is put in check?

And for the Lady who smuggled 1 derica of rice through her breasts, that's solely her business, I'm surprised you could even raise that as a point

Once again, why all these fuss about rice??!... How many Nigerians have always been able to afford rice, especially since Buhari took over in 2015??!

The food in itself is overrated in my humble and dietary opinion.... Some outside Nigeria would think rice is the sole meal that keeps us alive in this country. The rice in my house lasts longer than any other food, cos I would rather eat swallow, bread, beans, etc than the unnecessarily hyped carbohydrate source.

Let's give this a rest jor.... Most of us are already beginning to sound dumb.

Nigeria on the beat.

More rice cultivation next year. Sebi una want rice. We shall see. Rice go full market next year.

That's not true.
Rice is like Garri in most Nigerians homes.

The thing is, they are some things you may want to eat, but due to the location you live in your environment, the nearest meal u can buy.. aside Garri.. will be the Rice family.
As for Bread, most of us don't even like bread that much. I don't either.

Poor analogy... You should pick better correlation to support your emotional rant.

How can you even compare phones and rice??! Have you been drinking??! Lol...

Are you saying if rice is banned or disappears from our diet (theoretically), we will all die of hunger??!...

You chose to miss the crux of my submission all in your haste to be defensive... So, let me reiterate or clarify... 1. Border closure is not solely about rice consumption.
2. A reduction in the demand, supply, and consumption of rice will not cause famine or malnutrition as it is not, and has not been the cheapest carbohydrate source in this country for years now.
3. There are more pressing issues (economic issues if you may) than availability and/or affordability of rice.

Maybe, I came off a bit harsh in my use of "dumb" (I unreservedly apologize), but I have simply called a spade what it truly is.

...As for arrogance, I prefer to be honestly pompous than to be pretentiously and hypocritically humble.

Santuscom Agro-Hub Investment Nigeria Limited, producer of Ogoja Rice, has said it will crash the prices of local brands as it begins harvest at its 1,000-hectare farm in Okpoma, Yala Local Government Area of Cross River State.
The Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Santuscom, Chief Paul Santus, made this known while speaking with journalists on the farm’s effort to cushion the effect of rising prices of rice domestically as a result of the closure of the land borders.

Chief Santus said the Ogoja Rice brand would sell for N14,000 ahead of the Christmas and New Year celebrations.

Since the recent closure of land borders by the Federal Government, prices of the commodity have risen to as much as N18,000 to N22,000, depending on which market.

Explaining further, Chief Santus said, “We at Santuscom Agro-hub Investment Nigeria Limited, producers of the popular Ogoja Rice brand, are concerned with the skyrocketing prices of rice after the closure of land borders by the Federal Government.

“We want Nigerians to understand the action by the government, and notwithstanding, we want to assure Nigerians that as a company, we will do everything possible before the Christmas and New Year celebrations to crash the prevailing and the current market prices of rice as we will be selling at N14,000 per 50-kg bag of rice anytime from now.

“Everything is ready for us to commence serious production of high quality and stone-free Ogoja Rice that would be very affordable and accessible by consumers in any part of Nigeria.”
