Kogi: Govt imposes levy on bread, explains action

The Kogi State government says a levy has been imposed on every loaf of bread sold in the state.

The State Commissioner for Information and Communications, Kingsley Fanwo, who made this known in a statement on a Friday said the levy was imposed to protect indigenous bakers. “The recent development was a measure taken to protect our Indigenous bakers and also protect our economy from the activities of bakers outside the state who bring their bread to Kogi without paying any form of levy.“There has been continuous complaints from out indigenous bakers about the activities of external bakers who pack their bread to the state in trucks and sell without paying anything to the state government.

“We assure the Master Bakers of our policy and readiness to keep listening to them in order to smoothen relationships and factors aiding their production as bread consumers have nothing to fear,” the statement read.
