Houseontherock1: Good point . My question to you is this . Why should any farmer sell cheaper when everything else is costly ? It is counterproductive from a business sense . If the government wants to control food prices , then they should start their own farms or buy from the farmers at competitive prices and sell lower . Dont forget that Buhari displayed pyramids of rice ( imported from Niger ) . The farmers stopped producing ? |

Donedeal1:Exactly Life is not all about money 💰 looting, embezzlement and stealing That's why government is there. No sane Government will completely allow market forces determine the price of it's fuel, electricity, and currency (naira)! When it knows the wages it pays is appalling, unacceptable and a crime against humanity. 1 Like |

They are using the word smuggling to make it look like a crime meanwhile it's just a food exportation.. but we have been exporting foods to other countries before, why is this one different? |

HugoBoss10: The farmers were given grants, loans during Buharis regime to help feed the country. They are owing and smuggling the food to get higher money. Tinubu is a don! |

As long as it's not illegal to export food items from Nigeria, this is witch hunt. Or probably another antics to shift blame - propaganda. This could even be complete false news as nobody was probably caught. If the price of foodstuffs is going high, I wonder how higher it can get by exporting to neighboring country |
Re: EFCC Arrests 21 Trucks For Smuggling Foodstuffs To Neighbouring Countries by faceland: 7:13am On Mar 06 |
21 truckloads is not childs play. Nigerians can't afford the food, so they transport it hundreds of kilometers to another country to sell at almost the same profit when you remove fuel and bribe money. |

It's criminal offence to take what belongs to Nigerians out of Nigeria. God bless the EFCC for this great multitasking job. 2 Likes |

DuBLINGreenb: Na so. It's all to create scarcity so people can revolt against the man in power. They're using everything they have to fight him and he is also dealing them blows too. |
Re: EFCC Arrests 21 Trucks For Smuggling Foodstuffs To Neighbouring Countries by faceland: 7:18am On Mar 06 |
Saidfx: People can't afford the perishable goods. 80% is better than zero percent. 21 truckloads is probably over 4 million naira in diesel alone. |

Anguldi: When you refuse to do your job, others will show you how and take the glory. Besides, it's a financial crime to convert money into foodstuff and try to smuggle it out so you can sell and recover it in money again. |

Brainlight: Leave them alone! They just saved the country of 21 trucks of food stuff. |
Re: EFCC Arrests 21 Trucks For Smuggling Foodstuffs To Neighbouring Countries by Spandau: 7:25am On Mar 06 |
HugoBoss10: Oga, the border had been closed against activities like that. It's treason to smuggle out food to neighboring countries when there's man-made scarcity in the land. Its called economic sabotage. Nigeria is a big enough market for such a business. |
Re: EFCC Arrests 21 Trucks For Smuggling Foodstuffs To Neighbouring Countries by Spandau: 7:26am On Mar 06 |
Melagros: It's part of their job to prevent economic sabotage. Stop complaining. It's results we want. |
Re: EFCC Arrests 21 Trucks For Smuggling Foodstuffs To Neighbouring Countries by Bridget95(f): 7:28am On Mar 06 |
Police and army must as a matter of urgency stop the export of all food items. Nigeria is in an emergency food scarcity crisis |

Yampotatocarrot: the government is trying to deflect attention away from its failure by blaming farmers who export food as the reason for the food inflation just as it did with Binance/BDC that took the fall for the high cost of dollars |
Re: EFCC Arrests 21 Trucks For Smuggling Foodstuffs To Neighbouring Countries by Houseontherock1: 8:02am On Mar 06 |
blaise26abj:If a farmer stressed himself and secured high interest loan to farm (for profit), I see no reason why anyone should tell him where or how to sell indeed. My only concern is when these same people prevent southerners from farming because of their cows |

Chinedumejoooo: There are responsibilities, duties and obligations that citizens owe their country. Nigerians are just too flippant about everything. Even to pay tax is wahala for them. |

Spandau: which polity? is the polity the source of the food that you say it will be "redistributed back into the polity"? how will it be distributed and what criteria will be used? |
