Yams imported from Nigeria are now available in the UK.

I personally bought 3 tubers last week from an African store in the UK.

I was initially skeptical about the purchase as I worried that I might get home only to cut the yam and find out that it’s gone bad. However, when I cut and cooked the yam, it was very fresh, white and tasted superb.

This is no APC propaganda.

GavelSlam:
People would still find something wrong with this.

If in doubt, look below.

A small tuber of yam is 400 naira in Abuja, big one is at least 500 to 600 hundred naira whereas a bottle of palm oil is 450.. While a family of five can cook four pots of soup with a bottle of palm oil, can they satisfactorily feed with a tuber of yam? Crude oil? I guess u cook with crude oil at home. I'm not against d exportation of crude oil or whatever, but d exportation of yam is wrong.. Be sincere to yourself at least.

QueenOfNepal:
Another Lies from APC stables

Paperwhite:
[/b]"He said: “British Airlines just called and said they are willing to fly the yams..................................................

“DHL flies cargo planes into Nigeria daily, 747 planes and they go back largely empty. They have to fill the aircraft with sand bags to balance the weight. They said arrange let’s fly this thing, we will give you discounts. “The Russian Ambassador came to my office to ask if we can sell them fruits— pawpaw, avocado pears, bananas, mangos. He came in with his jet.”[b]
.Meaning that if they didnt fill the aircrafts with yams,they'll loose balance and crash? Chai!
This is just another well crafted lie from this propaganda government after the rejected yams brouhaha.British Airways will never discuss such an initiative over the phone but at a bilateral trade agreement or MOU considering aviation international policies on movement of agricultural goods.Expect British Airways to denounce this immediately

Exclusive32:
govt of knowingly lying and subdue lying and propagandas upon propaganda. The same yam they said was rotten at the point of exit are the same one they want to export to Niger republic.

Caseless:
you people don't read or ask questions, so I don't blame you.


Have you asked why the yams got bad?

Exclusive32:

you people are easily steer and deceive.

Caseless:
ask questions, read and learn.

The government has given you something to hold unto... Defending them blindly...

You always appear in Viewing This Topic Now Section in Threads that exposes this government...

What's bad is bad...

babaolofin:
This is good news to the exporter of yams. Thank God the importer in UK refuted the AIT story on yams being rejected or unprofitable while the sole importer in US gave the yam exported from Nigeria a good business deal. They both requested for more yams.

Thank God both importers from UK & US are not brothers to those people carrying Nigeria Coffin to Embassies abroad. The negative comments from people on nairaland against Nigeria yam is an extension of hatred that led their brothers to carry coffin to Embassies abroad. Later, having blackmailed this business, they will soon rush into the business to spoil it & use it to courier their normal known trade.

maasoap:

And most of the so called Ghana yams are actually Nigeria yams.

scaramucci:


How does the policy of exporting yam benefit our people? Governance should always be about our people. I would rather we export services.

googi:
A beg, which kind of insult be this na?

Me and dirty yam go dey fly inside the same plane fighting for space.

Seriously, Nigerians already buy farms in Central America and Mexico planting cassava, yams etc and turning them into gari and amola to sell in the USA.

Nigerians will do the same near Europe when price is high enough.

Instead of exporting raw yams for little price driving up prices at home, convert them to starch used in pharmaceutical products imported into Nigeria.

Is it a curse that Africans must sell at the lowest prices as raw materials and buy at the highest prices as finished products!
