Think of how much tax payers money went into this publicity stunt? Very shameless. As long as unprecedented level of insecurity such as killings and kidnappings abound, even if they build pyramid of gold bars, it is useless. Tell the relatives of those killed in Zamfara, Sokoto, Katsina and Kaduna about rice pyramids and see if they will dance and shout sai buhari.
Beside what are these pyramids for really if not campaigns? Is rice cheaper? If you say they save forex, has naira appreciated against the dollar? .
This is like showing a sick and dying man the picture of a drug that is believed can heal him and then letting him die.

So, how would you then pay the farmer, transporter, wholesaler, supplier, miller, etc etc...out of that N6000.

What you are suggesting is tantamount to me suggesting that we should pay you a third of your salary instead of the whole lot.

Why I am making fun is that you people want cheap stuff, because you think that people should suffer loss so that you can have 50kg rice for 6000 naira?

No wonder your country is in debt. It really costs a lot in loans to keep things cheap.

Communist countries tried what you are suggesting now, and most of them went broke eventually.

Rice can never be 6000 naira for a 50kg bag for the simple reason that we don't have an economy that attracts forex and a strong Naira as a result.

Also, even then, rice cannot be as low as N6000 only. Rice price is determined by farmers, transporters, wholesalers and retailers., and millers. They determine the price they would sell rice to you so that they can make a profit.

Plus we import most of the rice we use. Cost of transporting the rice is another matter.

I don't support the rice pyramid. As far as I am concerned, Nigeria has a long way to go before we can call ourselves a major rice producer. Less than 10% of our agriculture is not mechanized, and we are not like Thailand and Brazil that have lots and lots of wetland...far more than we can ever hope for, to produce rice by the tens of millions of tonnes.


The point of my rant is that many Nigerians have this idea that things should be cheap to help the poor. That's not how an economy is run, and running our power and petrol industries on such a principle is why they are in a mess

So what exactly are the pyramids for if not camera? When we imported it was cheap and forex was at N197

backbencher:
How did PDP not return the rice to the 2000 naira they met it?

Nigeria has a problem with resource depenendecy which accounts for the increase in prices of eveything...we so don't earn enough forex to keep the value of the naira high.

It is why your PDP cannot return the price of bread to the N20 of some thirty years ago, or the 77kobo that beer used to cost in the late 1970's.

Which is why I scream on this site that you people should support leaders who would make us an industrial nation, exporting industrial goods, like cars, phones even blenders. And also vote for leaders who would raise our tax to gdp ratio....to around 40% ...so that we would have enough cash for welfarist projects, and be a really developed naiton in several years.

And forex that would make the naira so strong, that 5 kobo would get you one dollar.

But you want leaders who would give you cheap things, which is why you vote for PDP and why your opposite numbers vote for APC.You want leaders who would share money for you and keep prices so cheap so that you can go and buy imported stuff, while we have no jobs because our domestic industries have been overrun by imports you want.

Good evening. Economics is not about cheap goodies. or keeping things cheap, or expensive. Economics is about making sure that the economy makes enough money to create jobs, and pay the taxman their share....so that the government can keep the economy focused on creating jobs and profit, and innovation and more profit.

So because PDP was bad, APC has to be worse?

Then this goes to show PDP as the benchmark APC rely on and they can't seem to get half as good scores.

If the FG cannot do anything about those issues i mentioned,the manufacturer will definitely heap the burden of his production cost on the consumers and the consumer will be forced to buy the commodity that is affordable from another country due to the funds at their disposal or will outrightly decide not to purchase locally made but expensive products from Nigeria which will eventually affect the manufacturer whose commodity will be returned and they will run at a loss!

Have energy experts not advised the FG to decentralize the power sector through the amendment of the constitution?

The answer is an absolute NO!
There are states with the financial muscle to create and establish Power stations in their state but the law is saying that any power station must first be fed to the national grid!
If the states have the mandate or constitutional powers to provide power to their states, the burden will be taken away from the FG!
You are saying only 40% pay for power...How many energy consumers in Nigeria have electronic meters?
How many consumers have stable power supply in Nigeria?
More than 70% of power consumers resident here are on estimated billing.....why should they pay for services that they dont even get?

Stop moving the goalpost. I have proven to you we don't pay enough taxes. Accept it and know peace, and that's it.

Don't move the goal posts.

Again, we don't pay enough in tax,even in the VAT you went on about, and as such we don't have enough revenue to fund things. Your questions about African countries are not relevant to that discussion.

We are reliant on oil for 70% of our budget, and 30% of us pay income tax.Oil prices are also very very unstable all the time. Tell me, why won't we take loans.? Even during the GEJ era we took loans because we were not earning enough from oil even above $100 per barrel.

We are a poor resource dependent nation. Always have been. And the minute we face that fact, things will get better.

All you have said is all very well, but you still missed my point....where I said....that government setting the prices for the discos means they cannot make enough of a profit since the price set is below the price of production.

At the end, we can do all you said , and if the producer and distributor of power cannot make a profit, because they produce power above a cost of N80 perkwh and sell it at N49-71 per kwh, losing money, they would not be able to finance the sector.

And yes, many people don't pay for power. Power theft is a cold cold reality. And people praise power thieves. And even if meters come in, people bypass them. Sad, but it happens.

Then this goes to show PDP as the benchmark APC rely on and they can't seem to get half as good scores.

APC has not been better , because of the harsh fact that after six years in power, they have not taken measures to get our country from being dependent on oil.

That is why we still have problems economically.

Nigeria does not earn enough in forex, and if your government had removed subsides on power and petrol, attracting more and more income and dollars, and also made moves towards mechanzing farming, maybe we would have been better.

But like PDP, you guys want to share goodies. Economies is not goodies shared.

smallsmall:
You are a confused person and that is why you keep contradicting yourself in your "endless Edits".

Noice...

But you did ask a very silly question in your first response to the person that said A Bag of Rice was #6,000 before the so-called Paddy Rice Revolution (not sorted Rice, which is half the Volume of Paddy Rice, when sorted, just let us be clear on that) and wondered why it is over #30,000 during this fake and White Elephant Paddy Rice Revolution.

So, why isn't rice back at N2000, which is where your beloved PDP met it?

Why isn't coke at the N20-30 naira a bottle , which is where your PDP met it?

Our naira value falls because it is dependent on revenue from crude oil, which is not stable because prices of the same crude rise and fall, and because we spend a lot of our revenue subsidsing power and petrol, which means no investment, and thus no forex increase.

Which accounts for prices rising, and real income and wages not rising.

Which your party and APC have not fixed.

We should be asking you and this useless , deceitful Govt, the same question!
How was a bag of Rice costing #5,200 when this Nepotistic Bigot took Power in 2015, able to pay for all those Channel of Rice Supply, that we still bought it at that Price?

My neighbour just informed that she bought a bag for #36,000 on Monday, 24 january, 2022.
What manner of fake and even criminal, Rice Revolution is this?

Or were there no Rice farmer, transporter, wholesaler, supplier, miller, etc etc in the Rice value-Chain, ...when Rice was being sold for #5,200 in 2015, before we mistakenly elect this incompetent pretender?

Let us tell ourselves the truth, this Buhari was a once-in-a-life-time disaster, the sort of mistake that must never be repeated in five generations.
Everything he touched, he destroyed, from our currency, to Security, to Food, to Agriculture, to Unity among Nigerians, to respect for human life, even treasury looting now starts in the Billions of Naira (NPA, NNPC, NDDC, CUSTOMS, FAAN, MILITARY, Min of Finance, Aso Rock Kitchen and Clinic, the list ios endless.

[/quote]I agree with you and I also say the same thing about your party, PDP which is not different.

Go and vote for people ready to take us off oil, and you would see real change.

So what happens when rice was 6k in 2012? Was it subsidized or those people you listed where not making profit then?
Rice is cheaper than fuel in China. In Nigeria, rice costs more per kg than fuel. Stop spreading propaganda

rayopt:
Bro, you are really just wasting ur time trying to explain to people with closed minds. Believe me. Nigerians and their lack of wit are the real real problems in this country. I keep telling people, everything should not be about politics but they don't even understand.

If we argue small issue about governance, they bring in APC and PDP. The truth is, whether APC or PDP win election, price of rice is not going down to 6k. And Nigeria will remain in this position for the next ten years until we have reasonable people with reasonable discussions.

That's the problem

A lot of people are attacking me because they think I am attacking their party or their fave politician.

I am attacking the fact that we rely too much on oil revenue for everything, and we need to leave oil alone to develop better.

Rice is not N6000 because we rely on oil revenue to buffer the naira, and the forex we earn from oil revenue is not enough to buffer the naira. If we took measures like removing subsides, diversifying into mining, agruicututre, and improving our tax base, we would have a strong economy.

But all these measures bring about 'perceived hardships'...

backbencher:
No, seriously you guys don't get it.

N6000 is not enough to transport the rice from Kano to Abuja self. And you want the rice to sell for N6000 without paying the farmer, the transproter, the suppliers, etc first?

You should know that our naira value has fallen because we waste billions of forex subsidizing a lot of things...petrol inclusive, because we are poor...from oil revenues that are never stable because the price itself is never stable.....leaving limited forex to buffer the naira.

You guys are so obsessed with cheap things, that you don't think about the cost of keeping such things cheap....

Rice cost N6000 in the past because the value of our currency was a bit better, though our economy was not good either. As the population grew and our forex needs grew, we ran out of dollars to buffer the haira, and the value fell, and prices rose. Simple.


Anyway, if you want cheap rice, then we should mechanize all rice farming in this country...so that we can produce rice at levels of 30 million metric tonnes yearly...from the 5 million metric tonnes we produce. So that we can export it to bring in forex that we can use to keep the value of the naira up, and prices low.

6000 to transport a bag of rice or a truck of rice? FYI a truck of rice from Kano to Abuja will collect between 70-80000. That truck will carry nothing less than 200 bags. Do the maths and you will see that it costs far less than 6000 to transport a bag of rice.

Except of course you mean a truck should carry just one bag!

Even when it cost less than N1000, people were complaining about how expensive it was.

Buhari made a very large mess of our economy by not taking us off oil and on the road to industrial development., and by not diversifying and by not improving our tax basis.
