who knows anyone who has eaten this rice before
see me here .





I swear down,that lake rice is far better than all these so call imported rice.


It is stone free
It is more sweeter
It is a joint effort by both Lagos and Kebbi



How wish Nigeria can replace imported rice with lake rice.

And that useless state where their Governor used 1.2B for burials

They should all be acquired by Lagos and the entire states should be used to plant potatoes.

Why is your lake rice only sold during sallah?
