Daniel Regha Raises Alarm Over High Price of Local Rice
Influencer Daniel Regha has expressed his frustration with the soaring cost of local rice in Nigeria. In a tweet on Monday, he shared his experience of visiting the market to purchase a painter of Nigerian rice, only to find that it was more expensive than imported rice.
Regha highlighted the significant price difference, questioning how the government expects Nigerians to support homegrown products when they are priced out of reach. He wrote, “I went to the market today, and a painter of Nigerian rice is more expensive than foreign/imported rice; the price difference is significant. Can you imagine? And the government expects people to buy homegrown foodstuffs.”
His tweet has sparked discussions about the affordability of locally grown food in Nigeria and the challenges consumers face when choosing between local and imported options.
