The irony of it is that the OP sarrki does not even live in Nigeria, so I don't know what gives him the moral right to talk when he's not feeling the impact.

I support the border closure but it should have been done AFTER adequate measures had been put in place but our non-thinking government as usual never brings out well thought out policies.

My thoughts exactly

allthingsgood:
Abeg rest. Your analogy makes no sense. If they are multi-national, then they are in those countries u speak as well. Besides, our sea and airports are open for business. U must not use land

Not all of them have factories in those countries. Some goods are manufactured here and transported to neighbouring West African countries
They use land because of the cost of going through the Sea port and also the time factor It is faster and easier to transport small quantity of goods through the road than seaport or airport

allthingsgood:
Hogwash trash! Nigeria is the biggest market in Africa. Don't even go there. No company can ever complain of lack of customers pls

Lool. Bros I'm not talking about private companies in Nigeria. Ask anybody in a multinational company around you
Unless you're saying, we should only have indigenous companies in Nigeria

My concern is not of Rice in particular but for companies in Nigeria exporting their produce to neighbouring West African countries.
The border closure is really affecting the activities of these companies, they can't sell their goods and very soon, they'll begin to downsize thus adding to the already saturated labour market..

Best so far

Thanks bro. I have friends that graduated with 2.2 and are big boys now.

Oga don't depend on grade o, do your best to come out with good grades but if you can't don't let it be a stumbling block to your advancement.
Don't limit yourself
It can only be bad grade if all your life is dependent on academic records.
Everybody cannot make First Class, the reason we have 2.1,2.2 and third class.

EliteDude:
I could make do of a friend here. Any suggestion

It's a nice thing to do, just be careful.

Vatod:
where is the local rice. Still haven’t understand why something will be produced up there will be cheaper than what we produce here

Exactly my points bro. If a locally produced bag of rice is sold for 7-10k, I'm sure people would start buying them. But you'll see a local bag of rice been sold for 14k and foreign rice for 19k with better quality

Please find a friend to put up with for sometime.

Commentor:
No you haven't said to much.

No vex.

I'm sorry for the way I reacted boss, I know the closure is for the betterment of Nigeria. I just wished some infrastructures could be put in place before the closure. Peace

Commentor:
You spoke about regrets about made in Nigerian product and suddenly feel sensitive about someone ostensibly putting you down.

Rice production is the focus here, not all Nigerian made products. My point is, our local rice farmers should be able to compete in terms of Quality with their foreign based counterparts and to do so, the right environment should be provided by the government. Have I said too much?

Commentor:
The countries from where these produce come from have first class roads right?

Please don't even suggest they do.

By the way, if you say I would regret buying our local rice I would extend it to say a foreigner should not patronize your services as an individual because it would be inferior.

Sometimes I wonder if you people think before writing.

Excuse me! You don't have to insult me to drive in your points. Tackle what I've said, not telling me I don't think before writing!

Women and Celebrities sha. I no fit pull, scream or cry for my crush Nicki Minaj self. Highest I'll do is to take her picture Mtcheeew

You closed land borders with the aim of promoting local production which is a laudable development but have you provided the enabling environment for farmers to compete with their foreign rice planters. Buy a Nigerian made rice and you'll regret.
The government should provide good roads, electricity, fertilizers, incentives and watch smuggling reduce to the bearest minimum.

It's my keypad

Sell am for me na, Biko

Oga how you take put that ferry symbol for your topic?

Gideoniteprime4:
is corruption a single term that defines one thing?
bribe is a form of corruption, does it mean one who bribes receives death penalty?
buying contra-band goods is a form of corruption, does it mean one who buys contra-band goods receives death penalty?
election malpractice is a form of corruption, does it mean one who engages himself in it gets death penalty
please read ya history books very well
it might save a life one day

Baba you have successfully scattered my medulla oblongata

Penalty for Corruption in China is death Sentence na, so why won't their leaders be accountable?

ayoevans6:
my bro wizzy just well behaved that's y he doesn't get insult that much not by the money because there are countless number of times davido and others I can remember have been insulted directly

The retirement age for civil servants is 60years or 35years in Service. Baba should be resting and enjoying his retirement by now. I wonder what they want an 80 something year old President to achieve in third term.

olisaemeka1:
Same way we all waited for the first term to end but where still bundled into a 2nd term.

There is no smoke without fire ...besides now that all the 3arms of government have been merged into one. who would actually stop or resist it?

Lets stop decieving ourselves that we are still in a democratic era.. we all know that Nigeria is not practicing democracy presently ..so anything is possible.

lastly please. .who did we elect to rule us in Nigeria ,A PRESIDENT or THE PRESIDENCY?

You're right about that, we are no longer in democracy. The Cabal is The Presidency

Abeg who are those clamouring for Baba's third term? The problem with Naija is that once you have small money or power you refuse feedback, instead of giving baba the right feedback, some ignoramus are there praise singing incompetence. Only those gaining from the ineptitude of this administration are in support of a third term.

Greed and lack of love for fellow humans made us this way.
Religion, Nepotism, undue favouristm, illiteracy, just name it...
Africa? We have a long way to go.

Mtchewww. Una never see anything

@NiRfreak, you're right about that. Another reason is the number of dependent ladies we have these days, they depend on you for almost everything. It's tiring.

CNN, Discovery, Nat Geo Wild, and Cartoon network.

omenka:
I don't find the reply wizkid gave as funny but look at the whole bunch of folks laughing their asses off at the comment.

This life ehn, your *jokes* are recieved mostly on the basis of your social and financial status.

I'm sure if some unknown broke dude had made that comment, even Teni would have blocked him.

My people make una hustle oo!!

You just said my mind bro. If na nobody make that comment, the whole instagram would be on fire now. Feminist go call for the execution of the guy self, the comment self no funny at all, but people just dey laugh sheepishly. The ones wey wan insult am self, dey use style do so... Wetin money go cause

Quorax post=827070o83:

You dare not insult some 'baba' online o. If not 'SSD' go follow you chat offline

Oga you still never us what it did to you.

Korllami007:

Taniaa:
Even if you be bill gates them go still insult you

The insults can't be compared to that of a struggling or poor guy though. Which kind insult you wan even give person like Bill Gates?

I don't think it's advisable though. Let's wait for bankers in the house

How is this Bail? The case was transferred, they've not been granted bail.
Plenty things dey happen for this part of the world o
