[s]The stupid fool of a president closed borders instead of providing alternatives to push indigenous production which will force people to stop buying from abroad. He's just digging his grave here and in afterlife .

In Abia State, the much talked about Abia Rice (Osikapa Abia) could not be found in any market. It was gathered that the Abia Rice has no particular point of production but as produced at the various rice producing communities. Recently, the Chief Press to Governor Okezie Ikpeazu, Mr Onyebuchi Ememanka, told journalists the Ikpeazu administration has established four cottage rice mills at Ofeme, Bende, Acha and Uzuakoli with plans to establish additional mills in Arochukwu and Bende.[/b]



Abia state matter tire me

Thank God I stopped eating rice Fufu all the way

Let the Federal Government keep those boarders closed and make sure local rice is released into the market. We have to stop this "foreign" mentality in our dear country for Nigeria to grow.

Nawa o
When any rule is being made, humans will find a way to break it sha just to satisfy their desires.

And those Customs people too. Crazy people

And those local rice increasing their prices. Idiots.

You stupidly close border with no policy on price control in the markets.

Now the greedy ones have taken advantage to hike price of goods of so low quality.

Rice coming from outside the country sold at certain prices after the heavy tax yet it was affordable, same rice planted here are going higher than the ones with heavy tax.
What's the brain in the whole encourage local product scam

When there is a good market competition, brands ensure to improve there products in other to compete, now without competition local mills are going gaga and the first thing in there mind is to hike price instead of improving on there products.

Let's embrace the change the majority want.

so, u xpected me to read all these?.mtschew

Abaia,PH, Lagos and even Anambra depend on Abakaliki rice.

1.Price controls is bad economics. If we did that, many rice farmers in Nigeria would be broke...because they won't make enough of a profit.

2.Am against the closure of borders, but let's be honest, if we keep on imporitng , we stifle local production. Not good at all.

Exactly what killed the Aba shoe trade. Make shoes in Aba and stamp on it made in Italy to gain patronage at the xpense of your identity.

CANDYDADDY:


'Devil blessed black man with greediness,and he channelled it to his personal gain'


Government closed the border to improve our homeland product which will definitely result to large patronising

But some folks somewhere are already 're-bagging' local rice as a foreign one,exonerate the price of local rice to the extreme an average individual can not attain just because of their insatiable desire for great profits

At least the border closure is the only positive thing Buhari would ever done since he came into power

This border closure would only make Custom guys richer

The bolded is what's killing this country, always trying to make enough profit.

Why not think of making good quality as those foreign rice, too much profit is what they are after and not what can sustain their business.

If he can't regulate prices, he should at least work on other costs like taxes, transportation, bad road etc. that is hindering rice production and supply

AmazingELixir:



Guess many will avoid this post especially the horde of miscreants constituting nuisance on this platform, long read ain't their thing.

Meanwhile this got me cracked up;

"When asked about the Abakaliki rice from Ebonyi state and the Coscharis rice, he said the Abakaliki rice was also as scarce as others while stressing that they were yet to see Coscharis rice in Owerri. “For now, people that want to buy Coscharis rice, we refer them to the television where they saw the advertorials."

Nigerians are mean, I read that and I had to check about twice to confirm sey eyes no pain me

If one does not make a profit, you cannot emplpy workers, pay workers adequate salaries, invest in equipment, and grow your business.

Your problem is that you think that all the rich guys in Nigeria make profits to put in their swiss bank accounts. That's true for a small set of people...who at the end of the day would go broke.

I work in the private sector. The company that employs me once went through lean times. During which they were talking of sacking workers (thankfully they didn't!...and the profit making days came back).

If the GSM sector was subject to price controls, for example, and not allowed to make a profit...by now we would be having very slow pre-GPRS internet, and we won't be typing this from the comfort of our homes and offices, and even cars. Profits in the GSM companies made the Nigerian internet and telecoms network to grow...and nowadays many Nigerians have their phones in their pockets, and the internet in at least 40-50% of the country...including most of the of big cities, and even some rural areas. (I am old enough to remember the days of NITEL...and its precusor Posts and Telelgraph...when owning a phone was a major expense...when my family got a NITEL line in 1993, we were only allowed to recieve calls, making calls cost money, and making an international call was out of the question...now GSM has made this much cheaper . I can also recall the old days of the internet here in Nigeria...in 2004, I had to go to an interent cafe and connect on slow connection. Now, here I am at home on a fast connection. Internet cafes have become rare.).

No profits...no money for investments.

Even the phone and computer you are using exist because companies like Microsoft, HP, Nokia, etc, made profits that were invested in R and D.

MODIFIED

A big reason why roads, power, etc are bad in Nigeria, adding to the costs of rice production has a lot to do with price controls in the power and petrol sector. Poor power supply hinders the development of industrial scale farming, which would imporve our rice production.

Price control won't work as our cost of production is never the same.
You can control price better in monopolistic market

At the end of the day it's still the common man that will bear the brunt.
The policy makers will receive free rice from lobbyists.
Coscharis, Dangote & other large scale producers that lobbied for border closure so they could recoup their investments should let us know why their rice are not available to the public. Are they waiting till 50kg = ₦50,000 before they bring out theirs? Initially they kept claiming that the influx of foreign rice was stiffling local production. Are the local farmers & retailers saying that if they sell the local rice below 15k they wouldn't make profit?...
Meanwhile Bubu without steady power supply in naija which way?

E clear say na jollof beans and fried beans people go eat this Christmas.

if you try this on smugglers route in the north, you are a goner! no one dare open their cover!

Government should start arresting anybody caught selling long grain foreign rice, even if it has been re-bagged to look like local. That way traders won't sell them again. If the bird learns to fly without perching, the hunter must learn to shoot without missing.

other state are understandable but abia said they produce osikapa rice which is no where to be found since 2018

RIFAN should talk to their members to reduce the price, if the borders are closed and local rice is expensive, of what essence will the border do to the masses, instead of the policy to favour the masses, instead we are suffering in silent.
