Traders ripping off consumers
Editor,The Ministry of Trade, Commerce and Industry recently recommended that retail price for sugar be set at Rwf 800 per kilogramme. However, some shop owners have refused to comply with the directive. I live in Bwiza village, in Kicukiro District. On Sunday, last week, a shopkeeper within the neighbourhood sold the commodity to me at Rwf1, 000.
Some shop owners still sell a kilo of sugar above Rwf800. The Newtimes / file.
