Nigerians are starving and some of the causes are based on wicked policies and not necessarily a general paucity of funds within the government. Take for instance, the low protein consumption amongst Nigerians. This is because of the federal government embargo on the importation of beef, which has been in place since the end of the war in the 70s. Most Nigerians don't know this, but you can't import beef into this country. This policy was ostensibly enacted to help local farmers, yet, most of the cows slaughtered in this country on daily basis are all coming in from Mali, Chad, Niger and Mauritania! Is that not importation!? The foreign herders come in, sell, change their earnings into dollars and disappear through the borders without paying any sort of taxes!

The federal government has turned the Fulani herdsmen into some sort of monopolies in this area. They set prices and since you can't buy elsewhere, you must buy from them! In the east as at today, a cow is chasing half a million naira! How many pieces will the guy in the restaurant cut this thing to make a profit?? Even when there are obvious shortages in terms of supplies nationally, the government will never allow for importation to augment what is on ground. This has led to a situation where Nigerianns eat their meals with little or no meat. And this shows in the physical appearances of most Nigerians. Folks need to force the government to lift this ban. If the Fulani herdsmen have chosen kidnappings and arson to herding, folks should be allowed to import beef from other areas like Australia, Argentina or even other African countries like Kenya and co. Visit other West African countries and you will notice that even though they are poorer than us, they feed a lot better than us...

Point of correction OP. That is not a big Yam. That you paid big money for it doesn't make it big.

1. If I pay 1,300 for that yam, I no go fit sleep for night. Say wetyn?

2. Na oil city wey no dey grow yam you dey, so I understand why.

3. Even if you cook am in full, plus the gas, energy used, time spent cooking for me, I still no pay that amount. Kilode?

4. I'd rather use that money to take transport to Owerri, buy yam eat Belle full for inside the money, then transport go back to PH go relax. I cannot come and kill myself.

I remember posting the pear and mangoes i bought on two different occasions in Benin with the prices, and people went crazy. Some even said I was lying. Oya doubting Thomases food don set.

Wow, the yam is really big o

Lucky you. Here in the EAST, there's no #2,500 Yam. That Yam you bought for 2,500 goes for 6k here in the EAST. Price of things are too expensive here. That's why most families can't afford to eat in a day. It is that bad.

Hunger is really dealing with People here. FG must do something about this before, a pandemic will break out in the East.
