Who still remembers BACCOSSI, the government’s Basic Commodities Supply Side Intervention scheme introduced in the late 2000s? This initiative aimed to provide essential goods at subsidized prices, bringing relief to many citizens.

BACCOSSI was designed to address shortages of basic commodities and make them affordable for the general public. The scheme brought in goods such as food, fuel, and other essential items, which were sold at controlled prices to stabilize the market.

BACCOSSI played a significant role in ensuring access to essential goods during a challenging economic period. By providing subsidized prices, the scheme helped many families afford basic necessities. Its impact is still remembered fondly by those who benefited from it.
