Lagos State Bakers have called on the Federal Government to urgently intervene in the prices of baking materials, which may lead to increase in the prices of bread by 60 per cent anytime soon.
In a statement jointly issued by the Lagos Chairmen, Association of Master Bakers and Caterers of Nigeria, Kosofe and Surulere local chapters, Comrade Taiwo Akintola and Comrade Ibitoye Oladapo, the body expressed sadness over the current situation the bakers are battling with. “A bag of flour that costs N9,000 before COVID-19, now goes for N13,000, while a bag of sugar now costs N24, 000 as against the former price of N13,000.”
“And that is why we are pleading with Federal Government to intervene in this matter by talking to flour millers and baking material sellers to bring the prices down.
