It's more medicinal

I totally understand your take on this issue. But quite honestly my brother, Abuja markets are no longer how you used to know them.

I'll rather drive to gwagwalada or Bwari to buy food items in bulk than to go die from stress from Mararaba market. Bottomline is, the disparity in the price of tomatoes in the space of just 4 months, is scary and alarming. That same basket of tomatoes sold for 7,500 last week at Kaura and Garki markets. How are the ordinary masses supposed to survive?!

And trust me, I'm way better at market shopping and bargaining than my wife. Most times she doesn't even go to markets if I'm not available to accompany her cause she's bad at it. She'll just hand out whatever amount is demanded without making the efforts to bargain, saying she doesn't want to end up having misunderstandings with anybody in an open market over pricing templates.

TruthinAction:
But the price of satchet tomatoes hasn't changed. So, why not go for it and add lots of fresh pepper. It will produce a very tasty stew.

Damnnn niggarrrr

So, are you eating your vomit now?

Since you've decided to be unfortunate enough to bring ethnic colouration and party affiliation under my mention.

No sane leader wakes up and makes two major economy deciding policies in the space of one week, without first putting up cushions to absorb the shock effects of those policies on the receiving masses. And in a country where our currency has mood swings worse than a menstruating woman, Tinubu's fire brigade approach was not properly thought out and planned.

This is not about Obi, Atiku, Kwankwaso or the Western puppet at Aso rock currently. It's about the fact that policies with deep rooted effects are being reeled out with absolutely no thoughts as to how they'll rub off on the people who are already struggling. While we're both sweating to stay afloat, this same elite class is busy apportioning salary increments, allowances and stupendous emoluments to themselves. They won't feel one bit of what you and I are feeling, but you'll still feel the need to come here and defend them with an empty stomach and a head full of problems and thoughts..

descarado:
You spend a lot making carrot stew than tomatoe stew. Bland if you don't season well. It finishes waaaay before tomatoe stew.
Heaven help you if it's not the sweat carrot.
If it's an alternative, believe me, Nigerians would have been making it.
Besides, tomato paste and loads of atadoro will do. Tomatoes have always been scarce at this time of the year till October since I was a kid in Nigeria.
Blame the worthless naira. Nothing new here.

nairalee:


you dont know that government's policies have effect on people and they have to take decisions to adjust to it?

Cassandraloius:
I use coconut milk instead and also use curry to prepare chicken curry or goat meat curry and lastly pepper soup/Banga stew.
Man must survive!

Tomato 🍅 is now the new expensive guy.
