I don't need 2 ask my friend from up north. Am asking u. What are ur findings?

How are we not doing enough in d south when it comes to agriculture?

I don't have the time to explain anything, if you really want to know make a search, if u think other wise it shouldn't be my headache

eluquenson:
Scam and lies.
That was how Jonathan deceived gullible Nigerians that there is cassava bread everywhere.

Who has eaten the rice here?
Lake rice I know is imported rice, packaged in Nigeria. If truly the production of rice is real, yes we have locally made rice here, but the rice can't feed Lagos for just a day.


Nigerians and the way they hug lies be like 5 & 6.

Under which rock are you living exactly? Miva rice, Mama's Pride, Ashi Rice just to mention a few.You have a smartphone, use it!

Oga Stats.

If someone says "about 10persons are in the room" that is not definite and based on.statistics.

But if the person says "10 persons are in the room", it is.definite.

Let me start from you, do you eat and how many people do you know that eat made in Nigeria rice? I am not talking of rice from politicians.

Go to the market for survey, there are now a lots of branded Nigerian rice. You may not possibly know because there is no much difference compare with the foreign ones. I eat Nigeria made rice from Olams, mama pride.

This is bad news to enemies of progress.
Congratulations PMB

I hate all this news that doesn't relate to what is happening real life...that's how they said we were the fastest growing economy in Africa, only for us to end up in recession....now it is rice they are talking about. Pray the price doesn't increase soon...

Nice one

lexy2014:


U did well by confirming that u have local rice at home. Am not against what u did. Now based on d report as presented in d article, was ebonyi not producing rice b4 2015?

Buhari stopped Importation of foreign rice to give room for local Rice

Samunique:
And........ where is the rice ?

The scripture says a Lazy Man will complain that he can't find his way to the city,go and check yourself before you wreck yourself.

NOC1:


For the past 6 months the Rice I am eating is locally made and processed in Nigeria.
No sand, charf and does not spoil over the night.
God bless Nigeria.

Same here and I prefer it more but the issue is the price, it's still high. If this news is authentic then I hope we resolve the price issue asap

homosapien:
Sai Baba is working.

Nigeria with fake news. How on earth will Buhari compare Nigeria to Egypt? Yet Rice price still remain 19k per bag.

Joromi12:

Trust me all those your so called foreign rice you buy are Nigeria rice. They are just repackaged for you patronage. To hv foreign colouration since they know we prefer foreign goods

PeterUdeme:

Its like when someone says new York is a beautiful place & then u are asked how. Next thing u say is ask ur friends. What if i dont no anyone? That doesn't show u no what u saying.

D time I will use to ask someone else, is d time am using to ask u. That's y I said, what are ur findings? I don't no y that should b difficult 4u to share. U should b able to say based on 1,2,3 things I saw, that's I feel that..... I don't need a second opinion yet cos u haven't said anything that will warrant one.

U also said this :"if u stayed in the south you will agree with me that we are not doing enough when it come to agriculture'"

And I asked u how is d south not doing enough when it comes to agriculture? Do u still need me to ask anyone I no?

Lol

So, your statement that '90% of Nigerians eat Thailand rice' is an ignorant guess?
A guess not founded on verifiable statistics?
A blatant lie?

I and those I know don't form 90% of Nigerians. You don't sit down in your kitchen and cook lies calling them statistics.

When next you lie, pray not to come across those who would challenge your lies.

Samunique:
And........ where is the rice ?

Because I'm still seeing imported rice everywhere. I wonder how this news developed

Stop deceiving yourself, most of these rice are not local rice. Forget about using phones to browse.

We produce rice in Nigeria since 1900, but our production is yet to increase, government are only deceiving gullible Nigerians who believe the economy is better under this administration.

Leave matter for Mathias

lexy2014:

and so ? But Buhari banning of Importation of Rice gave them more Chance, more local Farmers came in and the Local market increase and Grow because of that, but i don't know when Ebonyi started Rice production

GreenArrow2:


I really don't understand how you guys can't find Ngerian stone-free rice in the market? Who dey eat foreign rice these days? Stone-free sweet rice is bae.

Its what's in d market people buy. And its foreign rice u c in rice stalls

Dem go say na lie.....awon omo iran kiran!

objobj:

Yinmu, Nigeria is still eating foreign rice everyday.
Buhari stop giving LC to rice importers via apapa, but they(rice importers) bring rice via Cotonou, Benin Republic.
Rice importation is not stopped, hence you found Thailand and India rice everywhere.
