I've always wondered why virtually all the goods are cheaper in Benin Republic than in Nigeria. Large population of Nigerians depend solely on cars imported from Cotonou to the ones cleared from our ports cos they are cheaper, though our ports generate more revenues than theirs.What about frozen foods? Have you wondered y they're cheaper there and we import from them? I don't even want to ask about "ok" goods( clothes,shoes etc) we buy cheaper from them.

Have you wondered why their fruits( pineapples,cherry etc) taste sweeter than ours? Don't wonder cos I'm more surprised than you are. Are they really into fruits farming? Or is their soil coated with sugar? Or is there something else we don't know?

All these questions elude me, since we (Nigerians) as the "Big Brothers" but depend mainly on our "small neighbours" for most of the goods we need is somewhat funny.
I guess there could be a better explaination for these. Share your opinions if you have any!
