Aggrieved fish sellers, carrying placards during a peaceful protest to the State Governor’s Office, Oke-Mosan in Abeokuta over alleged incessant increase in the prices of fish.ABEOKUTA: Fish sellers, under the aegis of the Fish and Seafood Sellers Association of Ogun State, staged a peaceful protest to the State Governor’s Office, Oke-Mosan, Abeokuta, decrying the incessant increase in the prices of fish.
They disclosed that many of them were already being forced out of the business due to reduced patronage while the inflationary trend had also swallowed their working capital. “The most painful part is that, let’s assume that you buy this fish say for N50,000 in the morning before afternoon it is N70,000 and the following day it will be N75,000. How can we survive in this kind of situation?
“Already many are leaving the business. We all decided to come out and let the government know about what we are going through, we beg them to help us before things turn the other way for us. To feed our families now is a problem because people are no longer buying this fish, they always complain that they are too expensive”.
