Oshiomhole claims Nigerians Now Saying Food Is Becoming Too Cheap(AFRICAN EXAMINER) – Adams Oshiomhole, senator representing Edo North, has said some Nigerians are now complaining that food prices are becoming too cheap.
He said he has even heard opposition members accuse the president of deliberately bringing food prices down.
Oshiomhole said critics are unhappy that food prices are dropping, claiming the government is manipulating the market.
He described the tax system as progressive, saying it places a higher burden on high earners while giving relief to low-income Nigerians.
In October 2025, the African Democratic Congress (ADC) accused the federal government of artificially lowering food prices through import waivers.
