Stomach journalist. Food prices haven’t dropped anywhere. The prices keeps increasing everyday. Mannasseh was obviously buying the foodstuff in his dream.

Bagri rice selling in Bolga. Unbelievable!!! Burkinabés eat their home grown rice. I worked at Ouagadougou for close to ten (10) years and hardly did I vote across these multiplicity of foreign imported rice. UNCLE SAM is the commonest foreign rice one can find at the market. As for poulet (chicken) forget about the imported ones. They are not readily available. You will not find pig feet in the market. Aaww Ghana importing rice from Burkina Faso. Its shameful.

Maybe this Azure Mannasseh guy was overfed with dog meat when he went to Bolga, and so his assessment and analysis of the food prices at the market was heavily influenced by the excessive intake of dog meat at that moment. Why did he not mention prices of meat and fish? Why didn't he mention yam, cocoyam, plantain, cassava, cowpea, corn dough, onion, tomatoes, garden eggs, pepper, cabbage and other food and vegetables? Who is Azure trying to fool or impress? I feel sorry for the likes of him. The sacred truth is that prices of food stuff are still high.

Gari still sells at 30 cedis in most markets around the country. Fresh,cooked corn goes for 5 cedis and groundnuts also for 5.
So,where from this baseless conclusion?

Nonsense! Prices are not dropping in other markets because market people in the other markets are greedier than the word greedy.

Mannasseh, thank you for sharing the prices of foodstuffs. Can you also share the prices for building materials such as cement etc? Have they reduced the price for cement and if so what the percentage reduction?

Food prices generally see a downward trend as soon as we start harvesting maize and new yam start to flood the market. The downward trend continues until after January. Usually food prices are high from February to July. Exceptions are when the rains fail that ultimately affect the abundance of farm produce. I have seen harmattans and that is my observation of the years.
