Soon people will start buying foodstuff in the bars and nightclubs.
Fuel is already being sold at those places. And some people (including me) are already accepting Fuel as a legal tender.

The honest truth is that we lack preservation, so during rainy period like this tomatoes are usually very expensive

Honestly Waje is in the spirit

I believe you are educated and can find your way around the internet where you will come across countless information on post harvest preservation. If l talk about making powder from fresh tomatoes, you will say l lie again!

Thats Change for u

zizirecords:
Is Waje really serious that #7000 worth of tomatoes is expensive? Really? Stop mocking poor people abeg!!!

True she can afford it n it seems like a mockery of d poor bt have u tried looking at it another way? That she could probably b speakin out of empathy for d poor?

Una sure say dis DANGOTE Tin tomatoes factory for Kaduna no contribute to dis high cost?!!

Step by step

Na so e be o. Very very expensive!

Ebubeslym:

The cost of tomatoes is just outrageous..... One can't eat sauce again it's Dat bad!

floragregs:
For my area na 5seeds for 100naira

I gave up on fresh tomatoes like 3weeks ago,tomato puree plus rodo ti take over

Thank God my mum was wise enough to preserve the time it was cheap. People really need to preserve their commodities because you can never tell.

no, we lack interest in agIc

this is serious. they say Nigeria will be better. it's just left us all to make it better by our selves Cuz the government is gonna do nothing. Nigeria will be visibly better when our children's children's children are all gone. such a mess. SMH

Yours is better. Bought 8 seeds for 1000 Naira

That's what happens in a capitalist economy, isn't it obvious that the fx crunch has forced the Dangotes and other local tomato puree brands to look inwards for raw products for production there by buying out wherever tomato is available for production leaving us with little or nothing? Now local demand has increased with limited supply cos farmers can't store perishables after harvest courtesy of Nigeria's epileptic power supply. This is just the beginning,
