If you are familiar in buying tomato, you will agree with me that January, February and early march are season for tomatoes.
You can a big basket of tomato for as low as N5000 during it season but the case is different this year.

A big basket of tomato now cost between N16000-25000. We never even enter it expensive period yet.

Prepare yourself for alternative or stock up because this year, there is likely probability that tomato will be very expensive than other years.

you are very right...

I have come to agree that middle men are the cause of high cost of all commodities in nigeria today.
This is how it work, once middle men sell at an exhorbitant rate with gain sometime higher than cost price, the produccers will see it and increase their own price to enjoy the hike.
Continuation of this ugly trend is what we suffer today.
