Price Of A Bag Of Rice, Beans, And Other Food Commodities This Week

With the recent increment of food prices in Nigeria, households are feeling the squeeze, with necessities like rice, beans, and garri prices continues to skyrocket.

This predicament remains despite the federal government’s slowness in raising the national minimum wage, leaving many residents unable to satisfy their fundamental needs.

Across the country, there have been multiple appeals to both the Federal and state governments, urging a salary raise to enhance purchasing power and alleviate economic pressures.

Despite these calls, a resolution remains elusive, with the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Trade Union of Nigeria (TUC), and government officials yet to reach an agreement on adjusting the wage structure.

Meanwhile, President Bola Tinubu, at a recent event in Niger State, reiterated his administration’s goal to achieve self-sufficiency in food production before the end of his tenure.

During the groundbreaking of the ₦169.7 billion Bida-Minna Road in the Kakakpagi area of Katch Local Government, the President, represented by the Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, outlined plans for agricultural development and improved infrastructure.
