Is Nigeria better off in comparative cost of rice production when compared to Thailand and India? There are too many misplaced of priorities in our country. Instead of closing border why can the governmen place tax or tariff on rice importation from neighboring countries to generate more revenue or better still allow economic integration with Thailand and India on rice production through exchanging of what we are better off over what this two countries are worse off. Just like USA and China on soya beans and many others commodities. 5 Likes |

The day we start telling ourselves the truth in this country that’s the day our progress will begin, till then we can keep deceiving ourselves. Simple transparency in governance we don’t have. We play politics with very serious issues and expect progress? How?? 1 Like |

The border closure is unsustainable. As one of the more developed countries in the region, with our booming youth population, we can't afford to increase the cost of living under any guise. Do we know how much rice costs in other countries?? Much less. Even in Canada. A developed country that does NOT produce rice locally. A country where even the poorest earn more than N400,000 monthly, rice costs less there per kg. An 8 kg bag of parboiled rice costs $10 which equals N2,700. That is N337/kg. Whereas in Nigeria, a poor country, with incessant starvation and a minimum wage of N18,000 per month, a 50 kg bag of rice is now going for N21,000. That is a whopping N420/kg. This border closure is bad for the people of Nigeria. 5 Likes 1 Share |

There is no deficiency in local production.. rather what we have is greedy enterprenuers.. Some will use their last card a buy hopefully to resell in December period..but am laughing.. They forget the presidency just formed an economic advisory committee...watch as some people will lose billion and million in the name of storing rice .. Before December.. federal government will push in rice it's stored and those the seize from boundary closure and will sell it at lower price. . 3 Likes |

Gaddafi1: What you are saying is a mere assumption. There is no evidence that points to the fact that the border closure will make Nigerians go into large scale farming. The cost of doing business in Nigeria is high and this is the main issue. We are now in globalization era and this means whatever that is produced in Nigeria should compete in price and quality with imported ones if we are serious. If we produce rice that competes in quality and price with imported ones, importation will die a natural death and our focus should be on strengthen our capacity to produce competitive rice. This by force approach will just punish the citizens for nothing and will not achieve any sustainable improvement. Mark my words, they will open the border again at some point after wasting our time 3 Likes 1 Share |

Border closure my foot, all these foreign rice that litters the market are from where, they just ended up making things more difficult for people. The test of that local rice is nothing to write home about. In fact all the processes involved in the production of the local rice are poor, they need to improve. |

He lamented that the allocation of N83 billion to the agriculture sector in the 2020 budget proposal was abysmal and needed to be revisited. Honesty, when I saw that figure too, wasn't impressed, for a nation that wants to depend on Local consumption, that amount was too low, and that of Education too..the significance of these two ministries are being underrated. Quality education makes better citizens. 4 Likes |
