Nigeria just saw food prices tank harder than they have in over a year with beans, garri, maize and tomatoes all dropping by double digits. Brown beans got slammed the worst with a 33 percent drop year over year while white garri fell about 25 percent and maize dropped around 16 percent, according to the National Bureau of Statistics.
The government apparently pushed through some logistics fixes that helped move food around the country better after President Tinubu told ministers to clear supply routes. Enugu and Ebonyi still have the most expensive stuff while places like Yobe and Taraba stayed cheap because they sit closer to farming areas.
Beef prices jumped over 21 percent, though and rice crept up a bit, which shows the whole situation is still kinda all over the place depending on fuel costs and exchange rates.
