The amazing rice fields of Nomeh Unateze

Enugu state is blessed, so blessed that we are taking our blessings for granted. Imagine having a rice producing community hidden into obscurity and making sure successive governments ignore the potentials of the place just because some people think they have all the power to make decisions that only them can understand. This is the sad story of Nomeh Unateze in Nkanu East local government where good quality local rice is growing like grass, but where the government does not even know, or care. How then can we be paying lip service to our agricultural drive, or our promise to feed our people with our home grown resources? Sometimes, I wonder if we are serious as a people.
