Residents and marketers on Sunday in Ilorin, the Kwara State capital, were shocked by a sudden increase in the price of tomato.

A basket of tomatoes in the aforementioned region has increased to N58,000. This was made known by marketers and residents of the state.

Abdullahi Latifat, while speaking with Daily Trust at Mandate Market, said the situation was beyond what the family could bear.
“Last week, the smallest bowl of tomatoes was sold for around N300 but now it’s N1,000.

“A big basket that used to sell for around N20,000 has shot to between N57,000 and N58,000.

Arinola, another resident said she had to reprioritise her budget when she came to the market because of the ‘skyrocketing’ price of the commodity.

A seller, Malam Hanas, said the price hike was because the season is gradually going, adding that it might get worse from Monday (today).

On his part, another seller, Mallam Surajdeen, said a small basketball that used to sell for around N1,000 is now N4,000 and more.

He said the situation, which they are helpless about, has affected sales.

I'm already tired with life. Survival is too expensive, no one to call for help. If u commit suicide now, they will say u have sinned and that you're a weakling. We Hussle day and night, we don't even sleep. As I write this, I Hussle like a wounded lion looking for money but times are just too hard. I want to go to bed, sleep and never wake up. I don't want to use my hand to do this. I'm tired and God knows

I love cooking fresh tomato stew without adding tomato puree. The scarcity of fresh tomatoes have made me to start using tomato puree to cook.
It is well with Nigeria

what APC cannot destroy does not exist.

APC supporters like LeoDeClown, Yarimo, and HelAnus buy it for #10,000 when they show the sellers their membership card .

Buy am na

Na wa o...


Na to convert all cookings to concoctions...laced with red oil..



On a serious note, it's time we embrace the local tomatoes, especially in the southwest...go for the southwest grown tomatoes and not the ones from the North..yes, the northern ones are better , fleshy and less watery..but then, situations like this...no kill yourself...Yoruba tomatoes is equally good.

It's well

Damn it
