Recently in the Rivers State a basin of garri was sold at #5,000 which was blamed on the flood that affected several parts of the country.
But its unfortunate that most communities which the flood didn't affected by the flood also increased the price of the commodity due to increased demand.

In the state some communities which produces the commodity in Etche, Ogoni, oyigbo, ikwerre etc, has been ordered by the governor to crash the price of garri since their communities weren't affected by the flood.

Now the price has crashed from 5000/per basin to 2,200/per basin in some part of the state.

Can he do that?

martyns303: Can he do that?

He already did and the price in my area has crashed to #2,200 per basin

its not really the farmers fault, they were on their own selling at 2500 when FG came to buy their Garri to supply flood victims, FG started buying the Garri at 4500 and before you know it people that were not flood victims did not have any one to buy again. If its you does it not make sense to sell it to the FG at 4500.

Garri again.

Garri group e don land 4 una.

Truly the price reduced a bit in Anambra state.

Beans still dey high like Gold.

Imagine how a family of 12 will cope.
Something has to be done as soon as possible.

This flood really cause garri inflation.

Atleast our GARRY activists can now give us breathing space & stop wasting their bandwidth. You people should appreciate the efforts of seun osewa for this.

ItsModella: Where is Seun shaGARRI and co? good news finally...seems like their battle for "Garri for all" is paying off.

Our garri party has finally prevailed, this calls for celebration - we are having a garri-nite!

perhaps if people started to import, local producers would forced to reduce prices further

Finally, a thread that satisfies the yearning of the NL garri squad. The garri siege on NL should be over with this.
