Some tomatoes and onion sellers in Enugu State have attributed the crash in prices of the commodities to their harvest season, leading to a glut in Enugu.
A market survey conducted by the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Saturday revealed that prices of the soup ingredients have crashed, compared to what they were some weeks ago.
The price of a big basket of UTC tomatoes now sells for N6,500 as it has flooded the markets.
