Niger Bans Rice Export To Nigeria Following Closure Of Nigeria’s Borders by Mcreloaded(m): 3:31pm On Oct 14, 2019 |
Niger Republic has banned the exportation of rice to Nigeria following the closure of Nigeria’s borders. Since August 20, 2019, Nigeria has closed its borders in four geopolitical zones across the country, which include South-South, South-West, North-Central and North-West. In his address during a joint press briefing in Abuja on Monday, the Comptroller-General, Nigerian Customs Service, Hameed Ali, revealed that Niger Republic recently banned the export of rice to Nigeria as a result of the closure. He said, “The government, through diplomatic channels will continue to engage our neighbours to agree to comply with ECOWAS Protocol on Transit. “Goods that are on the prohibition list in Nigeria, such as rice, used clothing, poultry products and vegetable oil should not be exported to the country. “As a result of this closure, Niger Republic has already circulated an order banning exportation of rice in any form to Nigeria.” Hopefully Benin Republic is expected to do same as Nigerian farmers now smile to the bank with sales of local rice on the increase and beans with garri farmers smiling along with their tomatoes counterparts https://punchng.com/breaking-niger-protests-border-closure-bans-rice-export-to-nigeria/amp/ 14 Likes |

Nigeria yansh will now be more exposed since we are still not self-suffucient in rice production as about 80% or more of our local consumption is from importation.Nigeria is simply back to the 1983-85 era. 32 Likes 6 Shares |

Things might be but Nigeria is getting better. Though it's bereaved of some people's wisdom and knowledge to understand this because they listen and believe too much in those who play politics with everything. 21 Likes 4 Shares |
