perragy: I'm a witness to what the poster said althrough. Sokoto is a very nice place live in. very peaceful, low cost of living and the serenity is heavenly. The only thing is that the sun there is grade 1. i mean its like FIRE!!!

u sabi sokoto b dat....

The whole process is Far from hygenic, dirty looking environ, unregulated practices,unfit for human consumables. Shame to the local council.

@OP,

Just make sure they don't catch you in Sokoto, you might not live to tell the tale

Super1759: smh, bh is really dealing with us and we are insisting people over the north should move out, this man is here chopping chicken

wetin man go now?

ogbeche77:
North is more peaceful than South? You must have really spent years in a maximum facility, you have definately lost touch with reality... Aside from sabon gari when your governor 'Kwankwaso' comes to drink every night, where in kano is safe again?

and are u d escort dat follow him to drink everyday. My guy, remove sentiment frm ur mind. I mean wat i said. Yes, north is more peaceful xcept cases of crisis here and there and dis recent BH issue.
And as i said there are many states in d north whose dont xperience crisis at all. SKT is an example. Due, purge ur mind of hatred.

u are right, there is heat and durin harmattan also, its very cold. They do hav xtreme weather of both season.

@OP and others, can u please take some pics of the north for us?

Residential and commercial areas, as well as places of relaxation and the people please.

I was born and raised outside Nigeria, the furthest 'North" I have been is plateau state, which was peaceful at that time, to the point of being dull.....lol

The north is one region we rarely get to see on the net. You can help us put an end to that.

The region deserves some limelight too.

omaojo1:

Please, do you have an idea of how much goats cost over there?

#6000 to #12000. But you dont want to go near a Goat market during a festive season as this.

Remove the job opportunity, except you are imply a graduating to skin your chickens for you.

INNO18: It's a great place to be. Low cost of living, job opportunity, and very little competition.

Don't worry if you have seen peckham and brighton, then you have seen northern nigeria.don't make london look so gorgeous here.

Ricky_Ross: Why did i click on this DRY thread?
Very forking and UNFORTUNATE pics

Thanks

With all due respect why not save your time and energy and just place the bird aboard a naval helicopter. In ten minutes it will be dead, skinned and roasted.

My two naira. No pun intended. Honest.

Igbos are the reason why there's "one nigeria". It's sad that igbos still pay the price for that notion. chicken sale here is according to size. That size is also #1200 here. I must say that place have good roads...kudos

That chicken is like maybe 1.5kg in weight and it is 1200 naira which is like 7.5 US dollars. This works out to be about 5 dollars per KG and people are saying it is cheap.
By what standard is it cheap. Where in the world do people buy whole chicken at 5 USD per kg? It is damn expensive, we have not even added the cost of dressing the chicken

avr247: Don't worry if you have seen peckham and brighton, then you have seen northern nigeria.don't make london look so gorgeous here.

I'm sure you mean Brixton and not Brighton.....lol Brighton is a nice area, just outside London.

In any case, both Peckham and Brixton have some pluses to them. Brixton is where the rich young whites like to hang out and parts of Peckham are actually quite nice.The areas before you get to the market and the council estates.

INNO18: that's what i'm planning to do. Expect a thread soon

Thank you.....I look forward to it.

Good pics,thanks op

C'mon are you comparing our handsome birds with your GMO frankenstein fowls that munch more steroids than Lance Armstrong. Good stuff don't come cheap.

Tnx all for your commendations and criticism. I promise to shock you all on my next thread. About roads in Sokoto. Trust me you wont believe some of these Roads are actually in Nigeria. Welcome to Northern Nigeria. Where a state Governor can spend a whole Annual budget on Road Construction Alone! Besides Uyo, Calabar and perhaps Enugu. No other road networks in the South Can match those of the North.

Indeed. Dressing the chicken is even the most expensive part. Can't imagine how much you would have to spend on the gown, shoes and wig.

slap1: Is Sokoto no longer in Nigeria?

Lol...well, he is kinda correct abt d low cost of living and others, bt as 4 d job opportunity, u gatta av connections too...bt once gotten, bro...its 4 life...north generally is a nice nd conducive place 2 b. Its jst ds their intinct to kill @ anytym dt scares one...true

sokoto is really a nice place to live. I remember my youth service there.. they have good roads, friendly people, functional health care services and food is cheap there. I remember mami market, NBA club , Customs club..... they ve got good hangouts too. I actually missed sokoto.

Obinnau: how conducive is it for studying?

What type of course will you study inside a meat market?
