Some food traders and consumers in Lagos State have lamented poor patronage ahead of the Eid-el-Kabir celebration.
The traders and consumers said this in separate interviews with the News Agency of Nigeria on Tuesday in Lagos.
They attributed the situation to high food prices and inadequate funds.
A foodstuff trader at Cele area of the state, Mrs Patience Akpan, described this year’s patronage as unusually low compared with previous Eid-el-Kabir celebrations.
“The patronage at this year’s Eid-el-Kabir is a far cry from what we experienced last year.
