If this is coming from the Presidency, then let us wait for other media sources/unbiased statistics to confirm this. It is almost too good to be true that within less than 6 months of closing the border, we are not only self sufficient in Rice but have even surpass other countries who are gaint exporters of rice....Our rice must grow very very fast and harvest within 1month to even come close to this record.

Pack ur bag dey go China...their rice sweet for that side

No...na Canada I dey plan to go.

Yes o! I even bought A BAG of rice today for #1000!
# bunch of un-repentant/ perpetual liars!

What's next?

This country gat A+ in lying.
This one shocked me....

Godsonkemz:
Yet a common man can't afford a bag of rice in Nigeria.

No be every Nigerian dey suffer like u na. Think positive and emancipate yourself from 2019 poverty thinking mentality.

hisexcellency34:
Yet the economy is still in critical condition

It's a gradual process

Nigeria can lie for Africa!
Go ask Israel how dem take become giant for everything and their economy na correct.
Dem nor use lie do am but practical application.

This government will find a place in the Guinness book of records as a regime that has out-lied any organized human government since the modern era. Who's statistics gave these figures, maybe Audu Ogbe and liar Mohammed, again. God have mercy.

A thing of joy cos we are on the right part to self sufficiency. If we are self sufficient, we can think of export and earn foreign exchange.

Export that stone tasteless low quality rice to which country? Maybe Somalia or central Africa Republic

audio rice

Urahara22:


I'm curious . Was rice consumption in the 60s low because Nigerians were damn too poor to afford rice or was it low because Nigerians didn't really fancy rice then ?

as at then most of our parents still dey village. Few people in urban areas they ate local produce. Salad was once big man food too. Today foods hawker self sell it

Pls if you have any land for lease in Lagos, kindly contact EMONARCH GC on 0802 068 4442, 0903 053 9748.

Low quality rice full of stones yet expensive to buy

do4luv14:
It would had been more better if PMB had keep GEJ Agric minister,

it was there the plan was laid carefully, to make nigeria self sufficent in quality rice production,

not what we are seeing and buying now

List one important achievement of him under Jonathan. Where is the cassava bread they promised Nigerians? Name one brand of Nigeria rice that was in production during his time. Post your fact here, I am waiting.

Growth don't happen in a day.... Even the great USA once battled recession....

Topccy007z:
I wish it's true. Because to me rice is still quite expensive

Surprised too but it's actually true.

Please note that Nigeria's GDP is around 9.1 one of the highest in the world, please do not be pessimistic, with continuous good governance we will get there

rottennaija:


Bros, don't be too pessimistic, if we continue in this direction, eventually, we will get there. Egypt and other countries didn't get to where they were with leaders Nigeria had been cursed with from independence.

Have faith. Give it time. In time, in time.

corruption too has plagued Egypt. This statistic is a PURE lie

please tell them oo, enemy of progress.

You can't claim that you are the largest producer of a product and yet such product is not affordable to its citizens!

Until the citizens can access these products at an affordable price,all what is been said is merely audio!

Nigerians have never been optimistic.... How is the country gonna develop when you guys only see the negative sides of the country.....

pressplay411:


Surprised too but it's actually true.

Best Rice in the world is Thailand Rice. Long seeds and sweet when cook.
