d world is a global village,agric is not an obligation as against our forefather's believe now we view it from Biz angle. I've said it that we need sound govt policy and realistic one at that
imagine Nigeria as biblical Egypt where they hv abundance and scarcity period only policy can help....

Medieval Egypt Bro... This shouldn't occur. Nigerians love lazy money, we love buying and selling. Bank will give you loan if you are a car dealer faster than if you're into agriculture. Nigerians don't like producing, we love important and export and that is one of the major reasons the naira is devalued from day to day.

Ademat7:
3month from now that's till August,OP time difference!!!
mind u we ll hv supplus by then but what we r clamouring is immediate solution, as as stated here
https://www.nairaland.com/3090266/opinion-immediate-solution-tomato-scarcity
while we prevent reoccurrence of this scarcity

But why should there be scarcity in the first place. I am ridiculously bewildered and totally flabbergasted that a nation with great mineral resources and good soil be it in the North or South be suffering from scarcity of Solanum lycopersicum aka Red Ball , aka Tomatoes

Why can't made Nigerians, business moguls focus on agriculture. There are three main things that humans have been living on and will continue living on, no matter how many we circulate the sun, that is FOOD, Shelter and Clothing.
I'm disappointed

vanpeele:
May the God of Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad (peace be upon them all) continue to bless you.

You don finish work.

Amen.... Which one do you mean by I don finish work

If you have soil at your back yard , if you have animal dung , and if you're patient enough for like 90days

Then do the following:::

Plant tomatoe in your Backyard and stop complaining.

Be innovative for chikes sake.

In the meantime buy Tomatoe paste, cook less of stew (My Yoruba Bros and sis this might be complicated but not impossible)
Learn how to cook soups that goes with rice , and you won't feel the scarcity at all.

P.S
It's not a law that most things you cook must have tomatoes.

Remain blessed

Okay then.... We will be expecting.

Hi all, I know these past few months have been hell on earth. I noticed that most of our recipes in the Southern and Western part of Nigeria requires soup as a compliment. I will be giving out few tips to save money and create long lasting and tasty soups.

1) Dried red bell pepper: Dried tatashe/ can perform wonders when you want a soup that you can keep adding water. It primary function is to thicken the soup. You can make a difference to your pot of soup or stew with a few dried pepper. Simply soak in hot water for 30 mins to 1 hr till it softens and add it to the rest of the ingredients, blend together, use as usual. I don’t have a recipe at hand however it would go like this:
-a couple of tomato puree sachets like 2 or 3 sachets
-10 dried red bell pepper
-2 onions
-Dried Chili Pepper
-other spices like garlic
-oil

Prepare your stew as usual

Soya cheese: it is a great substitute for expensive proteins. The downside is the energy and time it requires to peel, boil, cook and/or fry to finally get those meat-like substitutes.

-Instead of lime juice, you can get fermented/sour water from people who make ogi/pap/cornmeal. You can get it for free or buy from them cheaply. You need the same quantity as the soya milk to curdle. Just add it to the milk while it is boiling and wait for it to curdle.

Dried Chili Pepper or Sonbo: it is funny how most people often continue to use scotch bonnet pepper (Pepper) over dried chili pepper during hard times. If you want to make small and cheaper sauce for rice, yam, beans. Simply soak your dried chili pepper in hot water till it softens or soak overnight, add enough onions, ginger, garlic and other spices to douse the spiciness, fry as usual. If you do not really like hot sauce, please omit the ginger. You can use these combo to eat your rice, beans and yam.

Egg stew: the good thing about egg stew is that you do not need lots of eggs to create a substitute for Fried eggs. You still have the protein and pepper. You can use any pepper mix to create a perfect egg stew.

-Blend your pepper with onion, fry, you do not want a thick consistency if you are trying to make more.

-Season well

-Add your beaten eggs

-Continue to mix until it has solidifes

Lafun, cornmeal(tuwo) and wheat: these are morsel foods that you can substitute for Amala/eat/Semo/poundo yam and occasionally garri. Did I hear poor man's foods? I beg to disagree. Food is food. If it tastes great and is filling, then you don't have to justify it. The cheaper process that takes to make them does not mean they are inferior to other foods of the same category.

Beans soup(Gbegiri): it is a perfect and healthy substitute for soups that accompany morsels. Peel your beans, boil with onions till it softens, mash it and sieve (if you have a blender, just blend the beans with the rest of the ingredients or you could blend the beans and add it to the Pepper mix).

Okro/ogbono soup: this is the time to learn to make okro soup. You do not need tomato or Pepper mix to make a great soup. You can make a tasty okro soup with dried pepper and palm oil.

http://www.allnigerianrecipes.com/soups/okra-okro-soup.html

Banga soup (palm fruit): This soup is commonly prepared in SS and SE parts of Nigeria. Palm fruit extracts make up up the bulk of the soup. It is a great alternative to proper egusi soup or vegetable soups.

http://www.allnigerianrecipes.com/soups/banga-soup.html`

Melon soup: this type of melon soup is different. I believe it originates from Ijebu. It is not like the popular version of melon soup. The amazing thing about this soup is that you can eat it with rice and your morsels. You blend your dried melon with onions, scotch bonnet pepper or dried chili pepper, adding red bell pepper or dried red bell pepper is optional. Usually it contains more water, so you can add more water until you achieve the consistency you desire.

Ooooppsss , is it only me that noticed there isn't any tomatoe in Any of the pictures. This is serious. Even the artist didn't have tomatoes or couldn't just waste the 3 tomatoes s/he bought for $1.

Call it mere ‘infatuation’ or “social media madness”, you may not be wrong. But the truth is that American rapper, Curtis James Jackson a.k.a 50 Cent has been caught crushing openly on the charming Nigerian songstress, Ada Jane Okwori popularly known as Imelda J.

The New York-based rapper cum businessman publicly confessed his love for the Nigerian Afro pop star on his Instagram page when he responded to her comment on his page to the consternation of his ten million followers. “I love you back @imeldajmusic”, 50 Cent said with ecstasy.

Basking in the euphoria of new found love, Imelda J in return posted on her Instagram and Facebook pages that she admires the American rapper a lot.

“People, @50 Cent just made my day. I’m blushing right now. He is a legend with a large heart. He is so humble and talented. That’s why I will respect him for life. I admire him a lot. Plenty kisses up in the air for you. You are very humble”, Imelda J screamed.

Before now, the award-winning singer is said to have made some incredible appeal to the American rapper to revisit the country again, after he was in Nigeria for the first time during the Star Mega Jam in 2004. Apparently, many fans have expressed fears that this latest crush on 50 Cent, may pose a serious threat to the smooth feelings that have been angling between Imelda J and Koko master, D’banj.

The Benue State- born singer who just released her new single, ‘OwoYato’ ft Small Doctor has always had a crush on D’banj. At one time, she was captured through the paparazzi’s lens as the ‘Lady in Red’ at D’banj birthday party in Abuja recently.

With 50 Cent already falling heels over in love with her, it goes to ask if Imelda J still has any soft spot in her heart for our Koko Master? We won’t be surprised if 50 Cent flies into the country any time soon to ask for Imelda J’s hands in marriage. Who knows!
