Weldon bro!

But you kon wear big jacket, you dey Jand?

Bros, Nasarawa can be almost as cold as Jos sometimes. The guy too much.
But what is hectare? Cos 45,000 hectare in my mind is suppose to be like half of Nigeria . . .

klassykute:
they keep avin farms.. larg nd largest yet d price is still on a hike

Because you keep eating, without thinking about how to produce.

End time farm

He is Obasanjo's in law.

iluvdonjazzy:
yet price of rice is still expensive, we need price control in this country.

Price of rice has fallen to 15k for 50kg. If you compare it with 11k when Dollar was 200 Naira as against 15k now Dollar is 400 it translates to 7500 of 2014.

This is awesome . this is the way forward for our youths

Good job Mr Williams. You are making your impact but it is advisable you do it stealthily.

However, I salute your courage and determination and say more grease to your elbows.

Continue to make us proud.

ololufemi:
Good job Mr Williams but some of us know that you are the son-in-law to Chief, General, President Olusegun Okikiola Obasanjo GCFR. Technically, the farm may belong to your father-in-law. The great Ebora of Owu and the larger than life President of Nigeria.

At least you are making your impact but it is advisable you do it stealthily.

However, I salute your courage and determination.

President Obasanjo himself is not producing that much rice! Give kudos to someone heading a 600 member workforce while not missing salaries!

You don't know what the weather's like there?? Especially this time of the year.

Impressive. I wonder what his products look like in their final package.

Or you re pained that he didn't chose to insert drug in his anus and try enter Singapore and ends up been killed just like our flat headed eastern brothers?

on the contrary Mr owoda! Nuffn interests the igboman like seeing a successful venture. It's heartening 2 d average igbo man 2 see good progress (unfortunately same can't be said abt ur ppl). Ur ppl rather die of anguish and hatred for the successful person!

Be careful what you wish for

Venezuela should be a caution

ekanDamie:
if we have all this manufacturers why haven't we been self sufficient in rice production all
this while?

We have nearly 200 million mouths. Each one can finish a bag in 2 weeks if eaten daily. That's a lot of bags of rice.

we're u able to read d oda part where I included govt efforts?

zanogo:
with that crap you wrote,you are not happy

don't judge me using ur own standards! I knw its a norm where u com from 2 beef ppl dat are hardworking and resourceful. Where I com from,its not like dat. We celebrate and emulate hardwork and success!

AishyWemsy:
do you even know what you are saying? if you don't understand what I wrote up there you better mute. I am far from the kind of women you are describing. You know how hard it is to not prefer paid employment and want to set out on your own? you know how hard it is to risk your hard earned money? you know how hard it is to venture into agric business. so much risk had been taken. Go and find out the real meaning of an entrepreneur. if you are not creating a solution you are not one. It has nothing to do with his look. For someone to have that look and think SMART, then a lot of kudos to him. You know how many job he has created. He is smart, he is handsome and he is a solution provider. Go hug a transformer

Mtcheeeewww! Even thought u wanted to say something meaningful.....
E PAIN AM!

Legendbaba1:

he Has done well for himself.

Evergreen4:
We are yet to see the impact of these plenty rice farms and rice mills in Nigeria. When will the price of rice crash in the market

when you enter farm

The guy came for a Lagos\ Oniru\ Eko Atlantic sponsored Agriculture Seminar a short while ago. I was very impressed. He's so knowledgeable about farming. God bless his efforts more.

ur mad.. really mad.. is it every body dat has to go into farming.. mehn ur so mad

9jakohai:
Largely because most of the rice we consume here in this country is imported....and also because we do not produce enough for local needs.....as most of the rice produced in Nigeria is via small scale farming which isn't enough to satisfy demand.

Farms like Mr Williams' are the exception. If there were more of them, we won't need to import rice.

Also, your large scale farmer still has to import a lot of the equipment needed for the farm. That raises costs.

but dangote has and manh others nahh.. bro dey keep sayin larg.. like it can feed d nation.. nd keep givin us false hope.. i tried d buhari rice nd it was cool but not filtered.. nd its still #90... see wat m sayin?

Everyone doesn't have to farm, but you don't have to make pessimistic comments like you did.

Sorry man, didn't mean to sound rude too, I guess I got emotional because your comment seemed to belittle the effort of those that are walking the talk, diversification wise. Hope you had a great day?
