“They, therefore, want both the state and the federal government to allow the markets where the paddy rice is sold to operate.”
Kano State Public Complaints and Anti-Corruption Commission has reached an agreement with Integrated Rice Millers to make local rice affordable and accessible for consumers in Kano.
Chairman of the commission, Muhuyi Magagi Riminga announced the agreement after meeting with the Integrated Rice Millers Association of Nigeria at his office. The chairman, who regretted the high cost of rice during the lockdown, noted that the commission received the mandate of the government to check unduly hoarding and rise in the cost of food items in the state.
“Secondly, we noted that the markets from where they source the raw materials have closed down as a result of the lockdown, which might be the reason why there is an increase in the price of the product.
