Oluwo disclosed that the federal government has the capacity to control the prices of
grains and building materials which can best be achieved by stopping export of the
locally produced items and encouraging importation for a certain time.

“The inflation of food items is killing and calling for urgent action by the government.
In this wise, all borders should be opened excluding Niger Républic to control the
skyrocketing prices of goods,” Oluwo said.

“President Ahmed Tinubu should permit the importation of all food items except GMO
products. Ban must especially be lifted on importation of rice and all types of grains.

“The local producers or manufacturers of goods are our major saboteurs of the economy.
They should be checked by encouraging competition. Local items should not be
exported. To add to the local products, grains and building materials should be
allowed to be imported. Such will create competition and control the high price of
goods.

“I’m smelling saboteur. Most local producers are frustrating the government’s economic
efforts. Necessary steps to shame the saboteurs must be considered in and timely
enforced.
