Basket of Tomato crashes from N25,000 to N800

The price of tomato has crashed from N25,000 to N800 a basket. Few months ago, the price of the essential commodity skyrocketed following the spread of tuta absoluta also known as ‘tomato ebola’ in most of the states that plant and harvest Tomatoes in large quantities. As of this morning, a basket of Tomato in Kaduna sold for as low as N800.

      It may take time before prices in other states will go down because they already have baskets that they bought for N25,000 that they have not finished selling.

      Bad belle people, when things are bad, you blame it on Buhari. Now that things are good, you are finding it difficult to give Buhari the credit. Unfortunately you cannot give the credit to Jonathan. Bury your ugly heads in shame and swallow the bitter pill that Buhari made it happen. Hypocrites!

      You should not blame him as he knows nothing about governance and factors that affec the current economy situation of the country. His inability to reason properly and lack of knowledge is the responsibility of Buhari led government. I wonder why Linda continues to publish his useless comments.
