Boko Haram responsible for scarcity of tomato in Nigeria – Lai Mohammed

  
While speaking on Channels Television, the Minister of Information and Culture said: “People talk about the price of tomato but they forget one thing; they forget that the price of tomato today is a direct result of the fact that we have lost two years harvest to Boko Haram insurgency.
Most of the people you see riding Okada (motorcycles) in Lagos are people who would have been in the farm to produce consumable items. Do you farm where there is war? 

We have lost two seasons of harvest, in addition, we have had very poor rainfall last year and this year. These are the combined factors responsible for the scarcity of tomato. Go and ask economists and agriculturists, they will tell you.”…. or direct u to google….
