Food importation is not an email that gets delivered on same day. It will take sometime for the waiver to have full impact on the prises of food

The bakers are trying to be honest... Bread is still relatively cheap compared to other food.

Protecting local farmer dont always work out well. There are strong-willed middlemen who unionize to milk farmers and consumers from one end to another.
We saw that in a thread few weeks back when market women resisted on of their colleagues who was selling at lower price in Kwara state. They sell at intl market price. Controlled opening of the local market to foreign goods is better than total shutdown or opening. Have you wondered why food items that are majorly consumed in nigeria have been the most expensive? Cassava, Yam are exceptionally higher in price.

REDshouse:
Dangote will never reduce price of sugar and flour . .. same way he won't do for fuel after monopolizing the industry

This his the very sad reality, yet we still celebrate our oppressors because they are our tribes and religion

DeLaRue:
The government may have to remove restrictions on the importation of flour, sugar, cement etc

Granting import licences to just a few companies have not worked for consumers since Obj era. Those few that are able to import just take advantage by increasing prices as they like.

Stop licences. Allow everyone who want to import to do so. Fierce competition will bring down prices.

That's why I laugh at those who want the government to put all it fuel future in the hands of Dangote refinery, as if the duopoly in rhe cement sector has helped Nigerians.

Just like AntiChristian supports the CPC/-led APC, because they claim to represent radical Islam.
Meanwhile , their children and fathers do everything haram, drink, smoke, fornicate, while the sheep starve to death happily because...Allah Knows Best.

Tinubu isn't ready to solve hunger crisis in Nigeria. He makes a policy for zero tarrif on imported food items and gives a crazy condition for his policies.


Another massive protest loading soon.

It shall never be well with those who worked, supported and encouraged this calamitous APC regime to power

The problem we have here is the will power to enforce policies as well as the influence of the few on every government agencies.

Imagine the kind of guidelines or conditions the Customs is introducing for participants in the food importation which is meant to drive down food inflation and hunger. How many mills in Nigeria can process 100 tonnes of rice per day?

They're merely promoting their "master's" businesses.

jubrilELsudan:
