I'm working on a project in a remote part of Ekiti state and in my leisure time, I usually take a walk into the forest.
I was walking around the forest today when this interesting fruit caught my attention. I was so fascinated by what I saw that I decided to pick one.
See pics below.


I'm thinking of a name for it already, cos the locals don't have a name for it

freesinzu:

Did you eat it

cassidy1996:
Name it, Recession fruit 2016

Ginaz:
Name it red juice.

curiositymaster:


I ate some, and I've never tasted anything like that in my life. It's a mix of quava, strawberry and apple.

freesinzu:
And u say the locals have no name for it

curiositymaster:


Yes

freesinzu:

Your really a tough guy, eatin a fruit u don't know its name, but how is the texture is it chewy, did you eat only the insides

Some ppl discovered the fruits we eat you know. And this one is even more attractive than the kiwi fruit

Swissheart:
Wow....I am fascinated . Where in Ekiti pls?

Baroba:
What's the skin texture like, is it leathery with hairlike strands on it.. It reminds me of kiwi fruit.Interesting..

So many things yet to be discovered and classified in this strange country of mine..

curiositymaster:


The texture, though rough looks edible to me. You need have a taste of this beautiful fruit trust me.
I'm thinking of marketing it to shoprite already, I need first have nutritionists analyse it.

ferhyntorlah:


The fruit looks like kiwi on the inside. Try to get it analysed at FIIRO (Federal Institute of Industrial Research, Oshodi) or IITA (International Institute for Tropical Agriculture) office.

All the best.

curiositymaster:

I'll put an update here once the analyses is done

Been following this thread, want to see the outcome of this.

freesinzu:


Probably it a diffrent variety, I tried google but could not get clear pictures of a similar fruit

ItzMePuffPuff:
do a Google reverse image search

freesinzu:

Reverse image search won't work, am trying to get the name of the fruit and there are no similar pictures online.

ItzMePuffPuff:
reverse image search is when you put the image in Google image search and it will show you the pictures origin
