Dear Mr,
I hope that this correspondent meets you well.
My names are Mr Chucks Madi Kalu and I am using this medium to solicit your support on behalf of the Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (FMARD). The present administration under the leadership of President Muhammadu Buhari has put in place a policy to vigorously pursue and implement programmes to achieve self-sufficiency in rice production because of its strategic importance as a major staple food crop in achieving food and nutritional security, import substitution and the promotion of inclusive economic growth. This programme is also part of the Agricultural Transformation Agenda Support Programme (ATASP). .
The country is more than ever ready to boost rice production, create jobs and also improve the living standard of the people in the country, which is made up of Thirty-Six States, grouped into six geopolitical zones with a total population of over Two Hundred Million citizens. It is in continuation of this policy that the government decided to place a ban on the use of foreign exchange to import dozens of items, including rice.
As a result, the administration is to embark on the importation of thousands of small scale rice milling machines to support the local farmers in conjunction with other stakeholders. The process for the contract award for these machines has just been inaugurated and I am well connected to key administrative contacts, responsible for the award of these contracts. If you have the capability to bid for the supply of these machines, please get back to me ASAP with your price list and specifications. I will be more than happy to work with you and also link you directly with the top government officials in charge, so that a quotation can be presented in the ongoing tender to supply this products to our government.
Yours Sincerely,
Mr Chucks Madi Kalu.
