Monrovia –The President Pro-Tempore of the Liberian Senate, Nyonblee Karnga-Lawrence, has reinforced her support for locally produced rice by placing an order for 130 bags of “I Love Liberian Rice,” a product of the Community of Hope Agriculture Project (CHAP).
The commitment was made following a meeting with CHAP’s Chief Executive Officer, Bishop Robert S. M. Bimba, at the Liberian Senate.
The engagement centered on strengthening domestic agricultural production and reducing Liberia’s reliance on imported staple foods.
