I was thinking buhari lock Seme boarder, where the tomatoe pass enter, so nice to hear Ghana and Cameroon, reminds me of the time i lived in both countries, was really a nice experience.[i][/i]

Good one, no one should have monopoly over our lives. While will tomatoes be cheap in those countries even when the bring it here but the one produced in Nigeria will be expensive for us to purchase.

This is a good development

RenaissanceGuy:
We know inflation and high cost are usually hinged on low supply. Imagine Nigeria having ten of Dangote's refineries, there'll be competition leading to stable pricing.

You forget say they go sell market price, except FG will provide subsidy for them.

brain54:

What should we be struggling with

Jets?


The U.k still struggles with eggs!

There's a tomato festival in Spain and Italy where they throw tomatoes at eachother like a tomatoes war...

Receive sense abeg

Oya, make I carry this new go Iya Mushapha pepper stall for Bariga market tomorrow

I hope to blive these newspapers

APC latest stupid propaganda no doubt.

Mteewww! Something that use to sell at 5k to 8k before Buhari came in

It is well

You seem to be contradicting yourself.
Stable pricing is different from low pricing.
So if petrol sells at 500/litre and is stable at that 500,you will be okay with it?

Yet to reflect, this is what I bought 2000k at ogbogonogo market ,Asaba.
@Ahnie how you see am.

Tomatoes is very cheap in Cameroon.

A basket is less than 10k Francs

Tomatoes farmers sells in bulk, like more than 100 baskets, then transport via marine to Oron beach.

Good development.

This is the very reason some of us faulted that border closure...!


There has to be serious competition for prices to be checked!

Ever8090:
When will a crash start crashing all Nigerian politicians and their supporters to death...

right after crashing your miserable households

The tomato disease outbreaks in Nigeria really take us a step backward. We now employing other countries Agricultural farmers while our lost THIER jobs. May God help us conquer Tomato Ebola

This news is completely a fake news.

Ghana as a nation imports tomatoes from Burkina Faso and at the moment does not have enough to even meet demands and it's so expensive right now.

Fake fake fake fake fake news with respect to that of Ghana

all of you that faulted border closure are not wise. If you understand the implications of border closure on economic, You will praise Buhari for that policy. Borders must be closed if unemployment will disappear.

Living on a piece of land bought by you in an urban centre and still cannot grow tomatoes and some vegetables around your own house, rear some chicken, rabbits or snail, or fish where possible. Now Camerounians and Ghanaians have to rescue you with their simple wisdom. Nothing kills a child like self-inflicted stupidity

First thing that crossed by mind…

I just didn’t want to counter argue. Because I didn’t have the facts.

But where Ghana one see tomatoes export… when they themselves are struggling with getting enough for local consumption.

Ghana too imports from her neighbors.

Maybe we imported from Cameroon or other sources.

But definitely not Ghana!

Parachoko:
If not that Buhari closed out boaders in 2019, there's no way foodstuffs would have been this expensive

The Government should let foodstuffs be imported from our West African Neighbors

Nigerian farmers don really cash out on top our head since 2019, they don make enough money to expand and compete with our neighbors.

Bro, are you sure? When we are willing to go into full production?

clockwisereport:
Where is the crashing?

Una never know anything. The gaslighting just started.

001Lagos:
It crashed only on the pages of the Newspaper

No mind dem mumu news agencies

Nemesis0147:
Crashed ke?
Tomatoes no even dy Abj at all…it is very scarce here and even if you see it
Very costly!

I swear oo, my town in abj. There no tomatoes anywhere including the market . Nigeria should start importing tomatoes from neighbouring countries, not even only tomatoes including rice and all food items. We should not starve ourselves because we want to be consuming home made food

Slurity:
all of you that faulted border closure are not wise. If you understand the implications of border closure on economic, You will praise Buhari for that policy. Borders must be closed if unemployment will disappear.

Border closure that was selective... It has be total to be effective, not that some will be open in the north while some are shut in the south. Also, medical tourism, education abroad, imported shoes and clothing wares etc must be banned too. So, you don't punish anyone when you sincerely implement a policy in the overall interest of your country.

Closing of our borderlands without appropriate measure is the cause of this inflation,I just hope this new government do something about the border closure.

G00DHardDick:
Damn!

Tinubu the drug fool said he will continue from where the lifeless man stopped, And Some idiots are hailing him

Instead of you to advice him that he should open border. You’re here behaving rudely and insulting him as usual. I think we need to start coping America way of politics if we wanna develop

Islie:
The price of tomato has crashed in most Nigerian markets as supplies from Ghana and Cameroun have arrived the county’s markets. Daily Trust findings revealed…

https://dailytrust.com/tomato-price-crashes-as-ghana-cameroon-supplies-hit-nigerian-markets/

how true is this?

I won't get my hopes up until I go to the market. Though I won't be surprise when I see the direct opposite.

This is the benefit of trade liberalization.

Una no talk of ban on importation.
