A Nigerian twitter user, Fisayo Soyombo, has lamented the kind of locally made rice which has flooded the market since border closure.
Sharing the pictures of the rice on twitter, Mr. Fisayo said it felt exactly like sandy soil the moment he turned it into water.
He lampooned Nigerian farmers for pushing such unfinished products into market all in the name of locally made products.
He wrote…
“Just because we closed our borders for a few weeks, see the kind of nonsense rice we’ve flooded our markets with. This one even felt like sandy soil the moment I turned it into water. Is this honestly the best we can do as a people? Who cursed us with mediocrity so wickedly?
