.tomato paste....


while lands are wasting at kano

k

Na dere way

Chai!

This is just the their normal way when they are up to something not good.
1. Cry that the government is spending so much on tomato paste even when we know that Nigeria produces so much tomatoes.
2. Say "we are probing the issue" just to be seen as been effective.
3. Stop importation and create artificial scarcity.
4.Give Dangote the exclusive right to be the sole producer of tomato paste while effectively killing competition with unfavourable government policies.
5. We get to find out much later that despite giving him monopoly over the production of tomato paste,Nigeria is still spending so much more on importation.

I'm not hating on the government,but instead of dishing out just figures,pls kindly tell us what measures you have put in place or will put in place, to curb this negative economic trend effectively.

Can't they encourage and empower SME's effectively?with all the tomatoes that get rotten and spoilt all around the markets in Nigeria due to lack of processing facilities.

Wen would we start getting tins ryt in d con3? Let's wait & c wat dis regime would do abt dis.

Smh. This is pathetic. Farmers harvest bunch of tomatoes every now and then but half of it are wasted because of lack of storage facilities.

Naija!

it pathetic that some people who are at the helm of affairs prefare to monopolise importation and sabotage those who want to locally manufacture....this is not peculiar to tomatoes along,generator,petrol etc because of greediness...#By made in Nigeria to grow Nigeria

Dangote to the rescue and later some Igbos wull shout monopoly

Over $1billion? From when to when? Nonsense report.

Buhari must to hear this oooo

after answering all the questions in an interview correctly then the last question,
