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.” https://www.dailytrust.com.ng/border-closure-ogoja-rice-to-hit-market-with-reduced-price.html? 33 Likes 4 Shares

Wiseandtrue: I don't understand how some of you are always waiting to see how things in this country will fail. Then you still turn around and complain about the same country, there are a lot of indigenous rice farmers now both in small and large scale, this is just one of them and I didn't read anywhere these guys mentioned they will be supplying Lagos with rice for Christmas so please use your head when commenting next time. 188 Likes 12 Shares |

Wiseandtrue: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  62 Likes 3 Shares |

Some opportunists we have in this country will still buy that rice, re-bag it(with foreign rice bag of course) ...and still get mind sell for 25k.. Chai I hope this is stone free though, because with what I've eaten so far in the name of local rice, I'm considering beans and plantains for Christmas. 13 Likes 2 Shares |
