[size=20pt]Their Project Buhari has failed, & the world is watching.
So they sent the facebook Mark Zuckerburg to light up some phoney excitement about Nigeria, followed immediately by Bill Gates.

And Buhari has warned them severally that his APC Administration is FANTASTICALLY CORRUPT. Such as Tinu & Ama. I no follow call any person corrupt o.

I eat this corn every week, it is sweet. So? Everything you eat made of corn that is imported is GMO. Actually, Nigerians cannot escape GMO products, they don't produce anything. You have been eating GMO for years my dear.
Re: Bill Gates Funds Nigerian Rice Production by Nobody: 1:58pm On Sep 14, 2016
GM food may not appear harmful to consume immediately but are designed to lead to infertility and perhaps later health problems.

Bill Gates has been hired by US government to help them depopulate Africa.

Is it not odd, that as the owner of Microsoft Plc he is not offering us help with ICT and technology?

I read an articles 2 years ago how an African country happily endorsed this GMO. Only to find out the pests that fed on the GMO crops were resistant to standard pesticides and weeds to standard weed removers. Farmers were forced to buy GMO pesticides and weed products from Monsanto funded company. There was heavy dependance on monsanto and it was expensive.

The country decided to rid this evil-driven company from its country and their stinking GMO money schemes.
Am tensioned that Bubuhari is not healthy enough to see reasons to draw a clear line on GMO. It will result to more poverty on farmers and ill health (long term) on Nigerians. embarassed

Nigeria is a bad place to be because majority of Nigerians, I repeat, majority of so-called Nigerians (Youths & all) are incorrigibly, thoughtless and hopeless bastards!

Maybe the country really deserves to die! And why not when day-in, day-out all you find are more unpatriotic, conscienceless, brainless citizens who feel they can turn deaf ears and blind eyes to the desolation of their ecosystem and still survive?! The same thing our politicians do reeklessly looting, diverting funds and still expecting infrastructure to magically grow out of thing air. Because we do what? We pray all day?!!

GMO's by and large have serious longterm health effects that will prove overwhelming for our backward health framework when it hits. It's a biotechnological shift that we've yet to hear the last of, frantic efforts are being made in the scientific community to refine the community meanwhile the fact that it creates life-threatening medical anomalies in consumers is already over-proven. With undesirable mutations and field-condition anomalous incidences in GMOs, the consequences on the normal crop life cycle and food chain are also worth guarding against.

So, i find it surprising that while those advocating caution on the thread are advancing arguments with valid empirical and researched evidences, those looking to eat free, cheap rice from the skies are running them down with abuses with no facts to render whatsoever. That to me signifies the kind of personal hopelessness that shows a society on suicidal paths.

Nigeria govt should be careful about these whites or foregn aids. That is how china came with infected tomato seed just because they want to sell their paste and tomato ebola is what we saw. Some of them are not our friend, they are not happy with the way this govt want to be self sufficient. NB: I AM NOT SAYING BILL GATE IS ONE OF THEM O. Just a warning

May God forgive your ignorance. Why are you so comfortable with your country's beggar status? Why should you celebrate a stranger's queer benevolence that has long strings attached? This same man is associated with a self-imposed task to reduce Africa's population by hook or by crook. The same man is associated with gm foods, homosexuality and so one. Keep celebrating

BS! Which of the food you eat today hasn't been modified genetically? Nothing you eat today grows in the wild, human modified them. The wheat you eat today were once just grasses, potatoes were formally poisonous, wild apples are tiny and not sweet, carrots were white and not this sweet, there are many varieties of tomotoes that can be transport easily without much damage. Did you think God created them just that way? No, people modified them over many years to what you eat now.
breeding is different from directly tweaking DNA

Ken4Christ:
Agriculture should not be left in the hands of small scale farmers alone. Nigeria should go into large scale mechanized farming. This is the only way to guarantee adequate food supply.

Our problem has never been fund. The Nigeria problem is mismanagement, misappropriation and diversion of funds. And this government apparently fighting corruption has not been able to stop it.

Months back, we were told 69 out of the 70 trailers of rice meant for the IDP camp were diverted. Even the one trailer that got there had a short fall of 150 bags of rice. Please, may be I am not updated. Can anyone tell us if they have received any feedback on the diverted trailers of rice?

Enough of the loans and foreign aids We have enough money in this country. Until corrupt people are dealt with and exposed to the public and the world to see, we are not ready for change.

How can the government be trying corruption, after one year plus, no one has been successfully prosecuted. All you hear of is trials and detention. They will tell us they don't want to publish the name.

Why fight corruption and hide their identity?. That means, there are dignified thieves.

Today, they will tell us 3.4 trillion naira has been recovered. Another day, they will say it's 78 billion. A dishonest government is corrupt.

We can't produce enough rice, we stop the legal importation. I said legal because importation of rice has not stopped. It is only making customs officers richer and making it more difficult for consumers.

The price of rice which is currently about N22,000 naira is not more than N12,000 at the Nigeria borders.

The government should rethink and change policies.

We hear of customs impounding rice but you will never hear of them impounding arms.

As far as I am concerned, we don't have sincere and sensible leaders yet.

I pray that in the very near future, some of us will have the opportunity to take the responsibility of leading this nation.
don't pray
Go and join a party and seize power
No one will give it to you
And yes money is our problem
We need 5 to 10 trillion just for tractors, tractors o not the whole agric o Just tractors
No fertiliser no irrigation no silos no freezers just tractors
Our whole budget is 6 trillion tentatively
Abi you won't pay civil servants salary and you think they will allow you to govern

Predictable you say? Which more predictable? To allow chance by nature to do something or to do it in the lab and be sure it will for sure happen. It is just like chosing the sex of your baby, you should know that you stand a higher chance in getting the sex you want through artificial insemination/sperm sorting than through normal sexual encounter.

BTW, please is the genes of the crop through natural process not modified?

Someone here made mention of the Reptilian European bloodline and I researched on this issue with Google. I found loads of info on this powerful Reptilian bloodline, its connection to this thread, to Illuminati, just to mention a few.

Visit http://www.bibliotecapleyades.net/sumer_anunnaki/reptiles/reptiles13.htm

It is a very lengthy but fascinating read. Not that I believe everything mentioned in the series of articles; the claims therein are puzzling, perplexing.
