In support of the federal government’s commitment to food security and economic stability, major sugar refineries nationwide have committed to maintaining stable sugar prices throughout Ramadan.
This pledge was declared following a recent tour conducted by Dr. Doris Uzoka-Anite, the Minister of the Federal Ministry of Industry, Trade, and Investment.
The minister visited the leading sugar producers such as Dangote Sugar Refinery Plc, BUA Sugar Refinery Ltd, Flour Mills Limited, Bestaf Ltd, Golden Sugar Company, and the Coca Cola Hellenic Bottling Company (CHBN) etc, and after her visits she said “”Rest assured, there will be no increase in sugar prices, especially during Ramadan.”
She also praised the different producers for their dedication to quality sugar production, while also emphasizing the need to be better.
She said: “I have witnessed their dedication to high-quality sugar production. While commendable, our collective goal demands a higher standard.”
The sugar industry’s dedication to maintaining price stability throughout Ramadan is an example of how the public and private sectors may collaborate effectively to accomplish shared objectives. This promise from the sugar refineries, backed by the determination of the federal government, is a comforting step in the direction of the growth of the country.
