With the fast-approaching Christmas, Nigerians are gearing up for a likely surge in the prices of essential food items such as rice, beans, tomatoes, and other staples.
Market trends suggest that the festive period, often marked by bulk buying and panic purchases, may lead to significant price increases nationwide.
Traders at major markets have expressed concerns about the anticipated hikes, citing increased demand and potential supply chain disruptions as key factors.
The looming price hikes have sparked calls for government intervention to prevent unfair practices and ensure food affordability. 
Stakeholders urge the government to monitor market activities and address potential exploitation by unscrupulous traders.
As the holidays draw near, many Nigerians adjust their budgets to accommodate the expected increases.
