Lol. So they could reduce the price of rice all these while, but they refused, yet making Nigerians go through so much pain. Our politicians are really wicked and heartless. How does this even get to the common man? I don't trust these governors one bit. 681 Likes 72 Shares |

Islie: How many people have N40k to buy 50 kg rice and how will the crowd be controlled that many will not be sent to untimely grave. Why is APC solution to food be rice that will not get to everybody? Nigeria is not a sociality country. Why not make economy viable.

Beremx:How many people can afford Naira 40,000 at this point in time? This change would have made sense right before the Nigeria fell in value and people started having to dig deep into their savings to survive. At this point in time many don't have money at all to spend. So what does 40,000 a bag mean to them? ![]() https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=59v89dfFd80?si=sOxrMpymhP_K0D1T 65 Likes 5 Shares |

This protest time is a time to know the true Nigerians. A time to know those who are the real lovers of the grassroots and truly deserve a national honour. Meanwhile, the horor of the present hunger has opened the eyes of many ignorant Nigerians about the importance of not trading off the future for a present offer of something inconsequential as 5k or a mere bag of rice that would be forgotten in no time. It is nothing but a political gimmick, a mere puff. Whoever is coming in as a Nigerian president must be made to realize that he needs to prepare himself well for the ever important and solemn business of lifting the country from obscurity the limelight 66 Likes 1 Share |

This is indeed a proactive step by the Federal Government to address the rising cost of living. Selling 50kg rice at N40,000 is a commendable move that will undoubtedly provide relief to many households struggling with food inflation. It's essential to recognize that the FG is taking tangible actions to cushion the effects of economic challenges faced by Nigerians. This initiative can help stabilize the market and ensure that essential commodities remain accessible to the average citizen. Let’s also acknowledge the effort to manage resources effectively. If this plan is executed well, it could set a precedent for future interventions aimed at alleviating poverty and ensuring food security across the nation. Kudos to the administration for this timely intervention! 92 Likes 6 Shares |

Beremx:Not a lot of people have even Naira 5000 to their name as we speak. Why do you think the rice is being handed out for free in the Northern States? It is because of this sheer reality which is the vast majority cannot afford even 1/20th of that cost. The reason the North is being prioritized in such a way must already be clear to anyone at this point. The government fears northerners than southerners. ![]() 44 Likes 7 Shares |

This is a step in the right direction! When FG takes initiative like this, it shows they are listening to the needs of the people. Affordable rice is a big deal, especially with all the rising costs lately. If we can get staple foods at reasonable prices, it will ease the burden on many households. Let’s hope this becomes a regular thing! 2 Likes 2 Shares |
