Diva Rice, the first rice mill factory built at the cost of N450 million, has commenced production of polished rice in Imo State.


The factory located at Umuabiahu community, Mgbidi in Oru West council of the state, currently produces 300 bags of 50kg rice per day.

Managing Director/Chief Executive officer of Diva Trading World Services, Ifeyinwa Nnanna-Mbah, disclosed this during a press conference at the weekend.

Mbah, an indigene of Oru West, said she decided to invest in the mill because of the high demand of rice in the state and to create employment opportunities for youths.

“Initially, I used to produce my rice in the Middle Belt but on a second thought, I decided to set a factory in Imo State since there is no rice mill there. Today, this is the result of that decision that I took early last year. This factory cost over N450 million to establish because all the machineries were imported from China and we are still spending because we operate on diesel for 24 hours as we don’t have stable electricity power supply,” she said.


Mbah called on the state government to assist in the provision of accessible road and electricity supply to reduce the company’s production cost.

May God help Imo State to recover all her territories and oil wells. Amen

Permesso:
That means 10 oil wells has been secured already remaining 17 with will be concluded tomorrow, i see Imo state winning the case. This is why i urge our people to rarely close to centre to get our national share. With the close relationship between Hope and Buhari, it will go well for us. Wike is using our oil money to fight the federal too. It need to be reduced

biafraisdead:
Not really. 27 oil wells have been recovered already and another 17 is about to be recovered subject to the supreme Court judgment. The total number of wells is 44.

Permesso:
Hmm! There are many more we needed to discover and recover too from Rivers. This strategy to deprive imo state and igboland in general of development then should be corrected now. This left us with noting to develop and buid J.B Setraco and R.C.C standard type of roads, infrastructures because we lack finance.

44 oil well still small for me, rivers still has stolen thousands of oil wells.

huncho22:
. Even with 200 oil wells with governor like hope uzodinma he's still going to do sub standard roads why much does ebonyj state have yet they are building and constructing quality roads
