It's Now A Criminal Offence For One Bushel Of Rice Not To Reach 100 Cups - Ebonyi Governor, Nwifuru 

Governor Francis Ogbonna Nwifuru has said it is now a criminal offence to sell one bushel of rice which is not up to 100 Cups, Igbere TV reports. 

Governor Nwifuru stated this during a meeting with stakeholders of Abakaliki Rice Mill. 

According to him, "Earlier today, I invited the stakeholders of Abakaliki Rice Mill for a crucial meeting, over certain indications that pointed to steady decrease in value of the industry, chiefly due to leadership problems."

"I have therefore directed that the operations of the Abakaliki Rice Mill must return to the best standards, where a bushel of rice must be 100 cups complete, while half bushel must be 50 cups complete. It is now a criminal offense to shortchange customers. The current leadership will serve out their remaining tenure and everyone has to obey their instructions."

"We all have to work together and explore the great possibilities of these Ebonyi signatures, like our Rice Mill, to drive our economy and make the lives of Ebonyi people, better."
