One needs to be careful of the rice he or she buys in order to avoid falling victim to this. Officials of Consumer Protection Council, CPC, recently raided some shops selling rice in Uyo, Akwa Ibom state capital where contaminated bags of rice were discovered.

According to reports, the owners of the shops get imported and contaminated rice, wash them and dry in the sun and rebag them for consumers to buy.

Idongesit Ikono, a journalist with AIT who was present during the raid shared the news as he wrote;

BEWARE OF THE RICE YOU BUY

Consumer Protection Council, CPC, raided some rice shops at Nyong Essien street and a very popular rice shop on IBB Way all in Uyo. These shops get imported and contaminated rice, wash them and dry in the sun and rebag them for you and I to buy and consume.

VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Any Mama Gold, Cap Rice, Stallion rice you find in the market or shops are contaminated, washed, re-bagged and dangerous to your health. Don't buy them anymore because, according to CPC, importation of those brands stopped since 2015.

First of all , The only people with so much greed that'll go this far are BiaFRAUDIANS



Secondly , it's not neccessarily contaminated rice, it could be wet or dampness from overstocking or hoarding, I have seen this before , if you leave your bag of rice near wall or somewhere moisture can penetrate, Rice automatically searches for water , so ....


But bottom line remains it's wicked and cruel to was and repackage rice for fellow human beings in the name of profit , If i know my nna friends at all , they probably bought the rice and forgot it in a container since 2010 , they've made more than enough profit

Those rice came packaged as spoilt from Birnin kebbi, and they sold it to other people as good rice. SON should trace the makers of that rice and slam them into jail. Very wicked people.

In order to support local rice

THIS IS WICKEDNESS OF THE HIGHEST ORDER. The building this fake production is found will be seized and sealed up by the federal government and the law breakers charged to court for prosecution.

The other day it was FAKE BREWERY that was discovered in the outskirt of Lagos.

The fake brewery was producing fake malt, beer and other types of alcoholic drinks.

There was the discovery of a secret METAPHETAMINES PRODUCTION PLANT producing metaphetamines and some other illicit harddrugs some where in Lagos and the South East some few years back.

These bad guys went as far as engaging a Colombian as their expartrate staff. Thank God there was a misunderstanding between the drug men which draw the attention of the public and the police.

Why are Nigerians so desperate for money at the expense of human lives?

Sorry to ask, I don't know if it's from my eyes or phone, but what I am seeing is just powdered stuff like sand and dust, except for the first pic, which I can trace some element of rice in it.

Those that will fall victim of this are the imported products addicts. For me, nothing beats my Abakiliki rice both in nutritional contents, taste and free from storage chemicals. This is one strong area buhari has changed the narratives for good in Nigeria.

The whole country is aware that your brothers the idiotic pigs of Biafra are responsible for most of the adultrated goods in the market. That rice was packaged by some flat headed criminals in a warehouse in Aba or Onitsha
