Less than two weeks to the Eid-el-Kabir celebration, ram dealers in Hadejia, Jigawa are recording low patronage. This has also affected prices as sellers have been forced to sell for cheaper rates. A ram in the market goes for as low as N20,000 compared to last season’s price of N25,000. A bull goes for N140,000 compared to last season’s N170,000. The sellers have blamed the economic situation of the country to be the main cause of the poor sales. The dealers, though the festivities are near, expressed optimism that things would change for the better.
