This is a pure lie.

There are so many good rice without stones in the country now.

I just hope the government find a way to control the price of rice. The price is very unreasonable for consumers.. meanwhile the marketers are a making double and even triple profit than they were making on the imported rice. I understand that this is because of high demand and scarcity.

This government lacks proper implementation of good policies.

Seriously I'm not against your opinion, but when are we going to get there, where excessive desire for imported goods @ the detriment of our own reign supreme.

It has reached an alarming rate to the extent that we craves for anything imported e.g. Brazilian hair, Brazilian yansh (boot pad), religions, even ordinary tooth picks!

My brother, somebody needs to spearhead the moves to return sanity into our society.

As for the local rice, Rome was not built in a day, we will get there. Meanwhile, imported Asian rice is still in the markets for those that can afford it. The importers passed through our seaports now & pay the necessary duty fees & this might be responsible for his higher price now.

Before, all these customs duties, clearance payments go to Benin republic & they don't grow rice for exports over there, they import from Asia, so, they are now sidelining Nigeria by the activities of smugglers who always evade payments.

As soon as he left the rice started having stones right?

F117nighthawk:
I tell u Nigeria and Nigerians can never and ever see any meaningful progress when we justify criminal act in which ever form,the law says ban on importation of rice,and some people still justify smuggling because of high price of local rice, how will u encourage local production if u don't ban importation.any country that want development will have to shut it's doors to importation and grow local productions, the world is celebrating CHINA and INDIA today forgotten that both countries shot it's doors to importation for over 20yrs,to develop technologically, today they are better for it

Who are they? the problem is that we like shifting responsibility. if you see issues take it up and work on it, if you are a technologist develop a destoning machine, if you can't, support those working on it.

Competition will bring the price down. We need patience to grow. An example is communication (gsm) it took the invent of globacom to crash the industry. The price will crash before 2 quarter of next year "mark my word"

Commentor:

9jahotblog:
CBN gave them funds to improve on their farming, but still they don't adopt technology in processing it. Is it the fought of common Nigerians niiiii.

9jahotblog:
cbn should be more focused more on the processing industry .enough of stones rice.

9jahotblog:
the main issues is from the government .why can't they do extremely well in the processing industry.

adenigga:


Yes, you are right!
They supposed to have put some measures in place to cushion the effect the policy might have on the masses.
But let's take one step @ a go!

It appears Coscharis doesn't know how to mill rice.

Can't you key into that sector and become a rich man?

Or you don't want to be rich?

Even the so called Nigeria rice are all full of Stones. They never improve on their production yield but can enforced total shut down on our land borders. The rate of appendicitis symptoms will increased tremendously in our various hospitals for this stones and tares in the rice. Very bad .

Officialgarri:
Farmers will praise and miss Buhari

Food marketers will praise and miss Buhari

Government workers will praise and miss Buhari

Npower beneficiaries —the youths— will praise and miss Buhari

Many Nigerians will praise and miss Buhari

Only a few, the wailers and Internet gangsters will speak ill of him, but las las, they will praise and miss Buhari.

This border closure was one thing everyone clamoured for in other to encourage our local farm, but no government had the balls to do it because of what they gain from it. Never shall those past corrupt governments ever come back to our political system
