Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has said the country is yet to attain self-sufficiency in rice production. He was speaking at the 4th National Discourse organized in Lagos by The Companion, an association of Muslim Men in Business and the Professions themed ‘Food Security: Unleashing Nigeria’s Natural Potential for self Sufficiency’.

“We used to import $5 million of rice every day. Although local rice is enhancing the economy, it is still more expensive than imported rice,” he said. Professor Osinbajo said that countries normally place subsidy on their rice to make it less expensive.

His words: “We are still at the point where we can do so much better. Once we are able to mill our rice, then we can compete with imported rice in terms of pricing.”Immediate past governor of Osun State, Rauf Aregbesola, described Nigeria as a very poor nation that needed to stand up against corruption and improve on food security.

lonelydora:
Nigerians are too corrupt. And that's why we can't move forward as a country. Not only in Government organizations, the corruption in Private sectors are worse than what we see in government sector.

Why stash cash abroad? This is the only reason I hated how James Ibori, former govenor of Delta State, was treated. He is the only politician that stole and re-invested it in Nigeria. At least, he gave many jobless Nigerians little hope of living.

Even though they return all the looted money to nigeria,our politiefcian will still reloot it to their private accounts.

That is the cry of fraudsters everywhere. Always finding a way to justify dodgy behaviour.

Everything na hustle. We have to make this money.

Go to amazon or ebay or Newegg, and there is no duplicity. Brand new used refurbished, scratch and dent grade a grade b grade c. Not repackaging a damaged product as new. I buy lenovo refurb laptops direct from their website. I know your likee will buy remove sticker and sell as brand new. Hustle, no be so?

Atiku is the oldest mumu I have ever known in my entire existence. How can he allowed himself to be scamed by PDP thieves? They are still sucking him as I am typing now. One Omokri is telling him that he has a server in UAE; why can't his family members call him to order? Catholic Igbo are on one side telling him to go on; nawa for Atiku o.

Limitednow:
So are you calling Buhari a thief because he fought thrice upto Supreme Court, where did he get the money?

ceedan:
Will Osibanjo preach again after leaving aso rock?
This is the reason they will do all they can for Atiku to lose his case because if Atiku wins and their book is open I may even see my missing 100 naira that I have been looking for.

The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole, has said politicians’ sins are forgiven when they join the ruling party.

Oshiomhole made this statement on Thursday, while welcoming new members to the party, at the APC presidential campaign in Benin.

As he reeled out names of those who have defected from the PDP to the APC, he said: “I am told that there are a lot of very very senior people from PDP who have decided to join forces with President Buhari to take the broom to sweep away PDP and to continue to ensure that APC continues to preside all over Nigeria.

“It includes my own brother, my friend who comes from my own clime, Henry Duke Genebe. He is the former organising secretary of PDP and we also have former vice chairman PDP and leader of Edo North of PDP. We also have my brother Chief Esheshi Godwin. He is also former council chairman and my very dear friend. We have quite a number of other leaders who have come.

“We have quite a number of other leaders who have come… in fact, once you have joined APC, all your sins are forgiven.”

Osinbajo corrupt deeds started during his tenure as justice commissioner under Tinubu who is known to be the owner of apha beta that has been a conduit for the bleeding of Lagos State. The corrupt deeds osinbajo did as justice commissioner maybe mind boggling if fully exposed.That of Tinubu would require a separate book.
Short of sounding like a broken record,but the challenge I put forward several times has not been met and my assertion is just being proved right day after day:
'Anyone should show me one member of the presidency and the cabinet that doesn't have a proven present or past corruption scandal on his or her neck,including the dullard-in-chief and the VP.

Still waiting for the day that y'all will produce unmanned drones and sophisticated military wares.
We are suppose to be the power house of Africa, or atleast westafrica
There shouldn't be a G7 without Nigeria or atleast one African country.
But unfortunately, our military bosses have used our money to buy walking stick finish.
Bokoharam can't be sooo sophisticated that we are unable to attack their stronghold at one swoop, we have the jets, the helis and the army.
But then.. They want the war to go on for years, not minding the cost implication of ban rolling the war.
The politicians kuku can't do anythingss
As military men they chop their own, civilians too they steal their own.
Oh there was a country

Is he a ritualist?

Ten years ago — in May 2009 — billionaire philanthropists Bill Gates and Warren Buffett held a private dinner meeting with fellow billionaires in New York City. Oprah reportedly attended, as did David Rockefeller and Michael Bloomberg.

A year later, they revealed what the meeting had been about: Gates and Buffett had been consulting their fellow ultra-rich on philanthropy, and how to get them to do more of it.

In 2010, the two of them launched a campaign that they hoped would change philanthropy: the Giving Pledge. The idea was to persuade their fellow billionaires to pledge at least 50 percent of their wealth to charity. It was greeted with enthusiasm. “Society cannot help but be a beneficiary here, by virtue of at least some dollars and perhaps many,” concluded a thoroughly reported piece in Fortune on the secret meetings that produced the Giving Pledge.

That claim seems to have been borne out — as far as it goes. Ten years later, we are in a position to evaluate some of the effects of the Giving Pledge. Hundreds of billionaires have signed on, with Bloomberg and other big names like Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk, and Mackenzie Bezos among them. More than $500 billion have been pledged, and money is already being donated to a range of causes.

But somehow, it all feels a little disappointing. Despite their commitment to give at least half of their fortunes away, Gates and Buffett are both richer than when they started. Meanwhile, many other prominent billionaires haven’t signed on to the pledge. There are now 607 billionaires in the US, up from 404 in 2010, and more than 2,000 worldwide — and of that 2,000, only 204 have signed on to the pledge.

If I have that kind of money, my generation will enjoy that wealth and still pass it on. No one will suffer. What's the use of wealth when your kids don't enjoy it. Well, it is his money and he has the right to will to whoever.

Mobolaji Bajk-Antyony had no biological offsprings. How come he's this liar's grandfather?

Bank Anthony was married to Olamide Adeshigin, later known as Lady Bank Anthony. He belonged to a few social and business clubs in Lagos, including the Lagos Race Club, Metropolitan Club, Yoruba Tennis Club and the Nigeria-American Chamber of Commerce.[3] He was chairman of the Federal Rehabilitation Appeal Board established by Yakubu Gowon to assist Nigerians affected by the Civil War.

He held the chieftaincy title of the Baloro of Lagos.a

That is to tell every one who has ears to hear, that you brought nothing to this world when you were coming in

You will also leave naked without nothing when you are going...so, stop be-laboring yourself everyday working

hard to pile up wealth and money for the fools probably that are going to squander them 2morrow

labour for only what you can eat and have fun with fear of God..by this wisdom you will be fulfilled

All I see in that picture is a blind you with chain tied to your own head and Lucifer's iron ball dragging you behind.

They apparently have not told you before that America is primarily a Christian nation where more than 70% of the population believe there is a God as against most European countries where more than 70% will tell you they don't believe in God. Now, the same America that believes in God has roughly the same population as the whole of Europe combined, but their GDP alone is greater than that of All the countries in Europe combined.

The same America that has Christian foundation is currently on record as the most prosperous civilisation/country that has ever existed in the history of mankind! Far more prosperous than all the Western European countries that hardly believe in God. So, tell me again how christianity is what pulls people backward You better go and find the source of the problem of the youths in your country and stop blaming christianity!

AbuuBilaal:
I swear this wheyrey no geh sense. At all.

So, promiscuity is the source of development? Mumu.

UNHAPPY ENDING Osama bin Laden’s PORN stash that he perved over in his Pakistan hideout won’t be released by CIA

Terror chief killed in 2011 US commando raid hoarded 'modern' illicit videos too graphic to be made public, CIA director says

CIA chiefs are keeping a huge stash of porn owned by evil former al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden under wraps.

A trove of intelligence gathered from the 2011 US commando raid that killed the 9/11 mastermind is set to be released — with the exception of the illicit material.

JasperVII:
The last time i passed there the taxi i was in got stuck in a pothole covered with water, passengers had to come down and push the taxi. While some youths were standing at the road side waiting for vehicles that will fall into a pothole so they can push it out and be paid. It's quite sad that nothing has been done about that by the government.

erico2k2:
I was responding to the narrative as in Nigeria, no need quoting all those long narratives frm the west, is anything functioning as a govt in Nigeria?Taxes in Nigeria as no effect or collective input!

The bodies of at least 74 migrants have been washed ashore in western Libya, in the latest tragedy along the dangerous trafficking route to Europe. The Libyan Red Crescent posted photos of dozens of bodies in black and white bags lined up along the shore near the western city of Zawiya.
A spokesman for the aid organisation said there were still bodies floating out at sea as the agency had no way of retrieving them. He said the migrants were all adults, mostly from sub-Saharan African countries, and all but three were men.
The UN migration agency, the International Organisation of Migration (IOM), said the dinghy had set off on Saturday with 110 people on board. The agency said traffickers deliberately took the engines from the boat and then abandoned it to drift.
