LAGOS LAUNCHES SUBSIDISED FOOD MARKET + LIST OF PRICES, LOCATIONS 🎊 The Scoper Media

The Lagos State Government has launched its promised subsidised food market across the state.

The Eagle Online recalls Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu said this was a way of easing the hardship on the people.

Sanwo-Olu, who spoke at a media parley, said the project, tagged: β€œOunje Eko,” will see the cost of food subsidised by 25 percent at the market.

A statement on Saturday by the Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Gbenga Omotoso, said the market kicks off on Sunday (today, March 17, 2024).

Omotoso said: β€œIn order to prevent sharp practices and ensure the foodstuff reaches a large number of Lagosians, a voucher system will be introduced as the pilot scheme kicks off.

β€œIndependent payment solution providers and food vendors have been identified and carefully selected to operate the process.

β€œThey will also provide real-time data on the exercise for monitoring.

β€œFor the purpose of transparency, prices of the items have also been listed. A 5kg bag of rice would sell for N5,325 while 1kg goes for N1,065; 5kg bag of Beans – N6,225 while 1kg would sell for N1,245. Prices of other staple food items will also be made available through various media outlets.

β€œThe markets will be open at 27 locations in Ikeja; six in Lagos Island; nine in Ikorodu; five in Epe; and 10 in Badagry divisions.

β€œMr. Governor has called on all Lagosians to cooperate with the operators at the various locations, monitor the process, and provide feedback through official channels of the Lagos State Government.”
