\What is the true situation of rice in Nigeria? How much does it cost? Let’s first take a general outlook on what the situation is all over the world

Rice is packed in sacks of different sizes which include 50kgs, 25kgs, 10kgs, and even 5kgs. These go for different prices and are dependent on the brand, color, and quality of the produce. For as long as memory can search, the price of rice in Nigeria has always fluctuated. This fluctuation can be seasonal or can be a result of exchange rates (at the time Nigeria was still a major importer of rice). Things are quite different today, but rice is still not as cheap as Nigerians want it to be.

I am also living abroad and we all know what sensible governments do when the people are facing extreme hardship, I have an uncle that is a farmer and owns several hectares of farmland in Montana, I know what the U.S governemnt did for him when Covid struck. I'm not here to debate about Governors, I'm talking about federal power here, the power to ban importation rests solely on the federal government, the power to release economic stimulus package for farmers is also within its duties, federal programs that rewards farming and buying local. Let's stop giving excuses where none is deserved. WHY MUST WE IMPORT RICE or OIL? Answer this simple question and set yourself free, why do we prefer the hard way rather than the sensible way?

Taiggarr:
You want rice in abundance and cheap pricing,GO AND FARM..
