🙄Nigerians now order Pizza from London through British Airways – Buhari’s Minister, Ogbeh tells Senate
The Minister of Agriculture, Audu Ogbeh, has revealed that Nigerians import everything, including Pizza from London.
Ogbeh disclosed that those who order Pizza from London make their orders in the morning through British Airways airlines.
He made the revelation while appearing before the Senate Committee on Agriculture on Wednesday.
According to Ogbeh, “Do you know, sir, that there are Nigerians who use their cellphones to import pizza from London; they buy in London and bring it on British Airways in the morning to pick up at the airport. It is a very annoying situation and we have to move a lot faster in cutting down some of these things.
”Nigeria is a nation of importers, toothpick every year costs us 18 million dollars; tomato paste costs us 400 million dollars. Meanwhile, a basket of tomatoes is less than N2,000.
“The farmers are losing money because the processors do not have enough funds to set up factories. Two factories have started off. I am sure by the end of next year we can comfortably tell the importers of tomato paste to stop.”
