Olalekan Adetayo, AbujaThe Jigawa State Governor, Abubakar Badaru, and his Kebbi State counterpart, Atiku Bagudu, on Tuesday said the bulk purchase of food items as palliatives for the COVID-19...

He said the situation was further compounded by the fact that food items naturally become more expensive in May, June, and July.“For all of us that understand the farming cycle, we know that food are expensive in May, June and July.

“This is also exacerbated because there is bulk buying. CACOVID, states bought a lot to distribute as palliatives; Federal Government is also buying. “An off-season period met with this huge demand certainly, price will go up. We have started seeing them going further down. It takes little time to translate into cheaper prices and in retail stores.”He, however, claimed that prices have started coming down.

Just vibes

Nonsenses talk

This FGNigeria under MBuhari is legendary at the blamegame, chai!!! Always blaming ,never providing solution, no foresight, no vision.

Your father

Very sick excuse, coming from very very sick useless and nitwits we call leaders, prices of food has increased since the closure of our borders last year. When they don't buy from the local market like we masses, how will they know.

This is Bs...

But last time he blames previous administration! ...shielding them selves when masses are severely tortured from every angle under their watch , what's our crimes to deserve all this after lifting APC to the throne?!

Imbeciles in exalted offices

No surprise... This government na to blame them sabi

Total rubbish, the governor was trying so hard to defend the party or his administration that he failed to realise the nonsense coming out of his mouth. The hike in food prices has nothing to do with paliatives an eventuality that was hastened by the covid 19 pandemic.

When you elect nonentities, this is what you get.

To plan how economy would bounce back ziro, but to plan how to work against fellow party members A1...........

Highly irresponsible govt

Government Oya to si fraudster

In jigawa the price is not going down

When there is no solutions or ideas then someone or something is always to be blamed
