Today in ubeji at Warri, boys went into the town to see the market women selling food items at exorbitant prices.

Unfortunately for a garri seller,she was selling garri of N750 for N1500 and the boys threw everything on the ground.

They were upset with the recent hike in prices by the market women.

Good moves,Nigerians can be greedy and wicked

A 100% increase in price yet na President, senators, governor's na I'm greedy pass abi? He that is greedy is what is less will be greedier in much. An average Nigerian is worst than the politicians they are pointing accusing fingers at. #fact!


Meanwhile they just wasted the lifeblood of the common Man. They should have apportioned it amongst those children standing there instead.

Do they really deserve to be treated like this

100% in support of dat.

What if they purchase the goods at expensive prices too Even though some of these traders are greedy

throwing her market away like that is unfair... just make she doesnt sell again.... thats fair enuf

Noted

I'm in support of the move. We are the major problem of ourselves in this country. Poor people exploiting themselves, it doesn't make any sense.

I may not totally support those boys, but sometimes people need to be taught a lesson as deterrence to others.

How will throwing it away help? They can't even be smart enough to share it out to people for free

If I am the woman, I will just go home and stop selling garri, and allow hunger to reset their destinies. 

A woman who went through hell to import the garri from another state amidst this lock down and exorbitant transport fares and police harassment plus buying the garri which is now costly from the villages, and you now expect the woman to sell to you normal price?


Why can't you lazy lots get into your farms and cultivate cassava and sell garri instead of being the unofficial price regulators who destroy poor women's properties because you are stronger than her. 

Oya, Go to the next filling station and destroy it because the man is selling above pump price if them born you well. Na police guards will use you test guns.

Greedy or not, they should set up their own garri shops and sell cheaper instead of destroying another person sweat.

what gave them the right to do such?

lawless shithole country!

Warri no dey carry last!!!

Small issue like this, market men & women go just inflate price. We are really doing ourselves as a nation.

Personally, I'll imbibe other regions to do this to stem the nonsense these market men & women do

Most Nigerians are shallow thinkers. Why not COMPEL her to sell at normal price instead of throwing away? It's not useful to anyone, it's now a waste,! Is this how so called leaders of tomorrow will govern the people?

They should have threatened her instead of throwing the grains away.What a waste!

I don't support the increase but if you try that shit with my family member, be rest assure that you will pay for the garri.

This is wrong and the same time stupid...

If you're not pleased with her price, you move to the next shop, and if the price is still the same, you settle for another commodity you can afford.

If she decides to lay a curse on them now, it will follow them to their fourth generation.


Itsekiri youths are not known for this gross stupidity, and for those two dumb sex workers laughing, one day, it would reach their turn.

You watch too many nollywood films


If curse dey work.. Ayam sure nepa officials and all politicians will be dead by now

The revolution is gathering momentum. first it was Katsina police station burnt, Onitsha Traders pursue security men now waffi guys on the beat.

Politics can't cure hunger

On the surface their action looks justified.
But did they find out how much she bought it?
Did they find out the cost of her transportation?
Did they find out other indices involved in the price equation if they had remained the same?
There is a reason why it's almost nationwide that the price of garri,in particular,has gone through the roof.
If other indices remained same,they are justified,if not,they were just being callous and irrational.

To have compel her to sell at usual price before Covid-19 would have been better than waisting the commodity

This is madness and man's inhumanity to fellow man. Those id1ots that did this should be fished out and made to pay for this wickedness.

Fools, their strength is on poor helpless people but they won't have the courage to challenge the politicians destroying their destiny.

The price of a "custard paint" of garri is about 1500 naira in many areas now, so it is certainly not the woman's fault!!

Jobless and senseless criminals.
Other market women will stop opening shops to avoid the same fate.
This will further cause more hikes in price.

Foolish people always engage in self-sabotage

This is unfair from both sides

If our youths are proactive like this, greedy traders and businessmen won't continue to exploit the people. They should also extend same to filling stations selling above the approved pump price. This is how revolution starts, the people decide enough is enough. When the government see the people putting things right, they too will sit up.

Bro, these women are going extreme with the hike, just last week I bought a basket of garri for #700 at Effurun, some days after it was sold for 2k, that's evil Manh, we should stop this issue of elderly respect when the elders are killing us with their own greed.

As much as this is condemnable, many people will go hungry because of the selfishness of a very few. 80% of us earn our income daily, we aren't rich, if you hike price, how do you think we going to survive?

Kai. We are our own enemies. We Nigerians are just something else.

More of this.. Imagine buying half bag of rice for 17500.
