MoIbrahim:


So what you are saying is after they they finished growing, raising capital and expanding they started hustling to drop the price? I no see Econs for here o.

MoIbrahim:
Na so MTN and Econet SIM rise from 3.5k reach 17k, come finally reach 23k sef.


Today na how much dem be?

shugaboy6102:
This is what Nigerians needs to do to this govt. Rubbish

Blitzerz:

.... When price of fuel went up under buhari, people of your kind also asked "must we buy fuel"?
Don't worry
Very soon you and your kind will ask,
"must we survive"?


That time will soon reach

nototribalist:
I was in the market 2 days ago and I asked the lady how much is 25kg (half bag) she said it's 6,500, While full 50kg bag is 13,000.

Ghanaians are now bribing our media to write rubbish. We don't have the key to that border anymore. So stop wasting your time

apikipiki1:
Las las we go use beans do Christmas.

Nvc078:

Shut up...foreign rice has close substitute which you can easily make duo with. Stop this wailing.

Hedonini:
In whose interest is the border closure and higher food prices? Is it in the interest of the millions of poor, struggling Nigerians or is it in the interest of the capitalist, exploitative, mercantilist, greedy 'farmers' who (along with their employees and value chain beneficiaries) constitute less than 1 percent of the population?

Blitzerz:

Zombie.
And what level of production of the substitute have u attained?

No sense

daddytime:
Na when I go fill gas yesterday dem tell me say 12.5kg wet be 3800 before don turn 5k because of border closure, na so I weak like over ripe dodo wey dem fry.

Nvc078:
you're void of common sense. There has never been a case of local rice scarcity in the market,what's your point exactly?

Agboriotejoye:

Where's dat?
I experienced same at Ibadan. From 3750 to 4125. Thought it was a rip off

Agboriotejoye:

Can you pls explain what pushed the price up then?
Local rice, esp the stone free polished variety can't go round the way foreign rice goes. That's why the price went up. Most of those that are cheaper are stony. If local rice could flood the market, price will drop

Nvc078:

If you did basic economics, you could've known that higher demand increases price. Having said that,we should direct our energy towards increasing production than criticizing the govt over border closure. Mark my words,on the long run,you will be grateful to buhari for this

kingtinnie:




I hail you sir ....You see the real problem with this country is actually the greed of our people ... If only we can be patient nothing good and worthwhile comes easy

Sukueponmalu:
The way Pdp supporters have been ranting about this rice price thing.
I was thinking the price had increased by more than 100%.

GeneralShepherd:
Nigeria is better than Canada and Australia oo . Una never see anything

Blitzerz:


It's obvious u are not on touch with reality, neither did u attend economics classes in secondary school. Olodo

Even price of local rice has surpassed that of foreign rice in many places.

sharone21:

I guess you are a proud APC loyalist or party member....Q: What have u personally gained from this border closure for 3months apart what you think are the positives that u read online or in papers? So, until the price of rice gets to N50,000 (if Nigerians don't complain) before you believe the masses are suffering? Your type are like PMB who say they understand the plight of the masses but know nothing about it. Inside this already hard economy where he has crumbled many companies and many families are struggling to survive( some on the brink of divorce) and many singles scared of their marital fate in this Buhari's economy.... At best, u will tell me it will provide jobs....say na everybody go work for rice mill after crumbling other sources of income ( no safety in the farms, no constant electricity, fall of banks and stock markets, crumbling of transportation jobs to both big and small entrepreneurs etc) and won't the rice mill jobs go to family, friends and cronies of the rice mill owners? See, when we see FAILED government let us jointly state so.
