In other news, the Dangote tomato processing factory shuts down. The factory located in Kano was closed after the farmers committed to supplying the factory with raw materials that abandoned the cultivation of tomatoes at the beginning of the rainy season in May.

The factory, which was the largest in Nigeria, has the capacity to process 1,200 tons of tomatoes per day.

Dangote launched the company in March 2016, to reduce the import of tomato concentrate, estimated at 400,000 tons per year.
