Recession affects Ileya Festival as RAM sellers lament low patronage

Ram sellers in Kaduna State on Monday expressed regrets about the low sale they had recorded, barely a week to the Eid-el-Kabir festival.

According to the News Agency of Nigeria, many ram selling points which include Zango, Bachama road and Rigasa markets in the Kaduna metropolis have many rams that remain unsold for days.

Alhaji Rabo Mohammad, who sells his rams at the Bachama Road market, told NAN that the ram sellers had never had it so bad.

 Mohammad, who came from Sokoto, with rams, said he sold only five out of the 50 he brought to Kaduna two weeks ago.
