grandstar: Sound argument. Only thing I would add for clarity is that importers of rice and other products need to pay fair duties so the government can generate revenue for investment in key areas that will continue to improve our competitiveness. Smuggling through the border must be eradicated at all costs as it makes the comparative advantage math unfair. |

MisterGrace:don't mind him... no body is angry because the border is locked up,,, but because there is no enough local rice to go round the nation ND as such it becomes expensive how will u buy a bag of local rice for 18k. then how much is minimum wage? we are not producing enough then u quickly import foreign rice into the government warehouse then close the border quickly because u want to make money for the pooor citizens heads.... that is wickedness, .. if the rice cheap self e for good we for still happy chew the stone way day inside |

Obiwank: The government is the cause of the smuggling. The import duty is a merciless 60% hence the smuggling. |

grandstar:Rice is a staple food. It is not a luxury for a few rich people that you can decide to overlook. We cannot keep losing billions and billions of dollars to its imports. We need to start encouraging local production. 5 Likes 1 Share |

Thai and Indian business men are already bringing their improved seeds to plant in Nigeria. The border closure is a blessing . It will bring FDI into Nigeria. Dangote and Coscharis are going into rice big. OLAM and STALLION are already making big. If anyone criticizes Buhari fo.r closing border, you have my permission to curse him 1 Like 1 Share |

Hangulsaram:There is everything wrong with it. Why must we buy it a high price in the first place? The whole idea of limiting importation of foreign rice is to boost the local production. It makes no sense that we are buying the locally made rice at a higher price when we can buy the foreign counterpart at a lower. They need to give the farmers more incentives to produce at a lower cost instead of making policies that is making life harder than it already is for the average Nigerian. |
