Lagos State Governor,Mr Akinwunmi Ambode and his Kebbi State counterpart,Alhaji Atiku Bagudu today launched the much anticipated Lagos-Kebbi Rice christened LAKE RICE,saying that the partnership which culminated into the launch was not only designed to ensure food security but showcase the ability of Nigeria to become a producing nation.Speaking at the launching ceremony held at Lagos House in Ikeja,Governor Ambode said the development was a great and historic moment for both states and Nigeria,as the rice would not only be sold at highly reduced price,compared to what obtains in the market,but is also very fresh and safe for consumption.''Today is an historic day for Lagos and Kebbi States.In March this year,we signed an MOU with an understanding that we,being proudly Nigeria,we want to come out with what is made in Nigeria and what is good in Nigeria.We took all that President Muhammadu Buhari said that we need to grow our food and we decided that we will prove a point and that is what today is all about.LAKE RICE is of good quality.The major difference between LAKE RICE and the ones imported is that the imported has a minimum storage of five to six years storage life span,but LAKE RICE is fresh,'' the Governor said.He said the partnership would in the nearest future lead to an expansion of production of the rice,saying that Lagos has the largest consumption market.Giving a breakdown of the prices,Governor Ambode said that while the 50kg will sell for Twelve thousand Naira only,the two five kg would go for N6,000 and Ten Kg for Two thousand five hundred ,adding that for now,an individual would only be allowed to purchase a bag to enable it go round.More photos below.
