Are we talking about the same onions I know? N100 for 1?  That thing that was sold 2 for N5 back then? 

I haven't tried cooking without onions but, I doubt the taste would be the same as though you used onions or you would be satisfied with what you get.

Hate onions anyways so I don't mind the hike in prices. Purple stuff in my food. Yuck!

The last time i went to buy onions,the one i use to buy for 700 naira has sky rocketed to 2000 naira,i was only able one third of it.i wonder what's happening, not just with onion's a bag of cement i bought 1700 naira 5 days ago,a friend told me he bought it for 2500 naira today.God save us!

It is a proof that food prices are going up through the roof.

Get ready. You can even start an onion Plantation with as low as NGN200,000 and control 50% of Lagos market for Onions in the future.

If nobody is buying onions at least our Wives, Mothers, GrandMothers and MAISUYAs will buy and we have millions of them in Lagos alone.

Errmm, I thought the hike in prices was due to the crisis in the North that limited the ease of transporting the Onions from the North to other areas? What if I started my plantation and the crisis ceases and prices return to normal?
P.s., Maisuyas have started replacing onions with cabbage. . . . . . .

Onions are very good

I think its a general thing, because a small dustbin basket here in abuja that used to be 400 now goes for 1,600. we should all try to make life eazy for ourselves in nigeria.

what i need is the effect onion on body system

wow, i never took note of it, probably i will pay more attention.

Thank you, time for me to start importing onions, dont worry, I will drive the price down

No doubt d current crisis in d north z makin d northerners 2 fink negatively by withdrawin supplies of dz Onions whereas z cheap in d north. . . After dey say dey worshippin Allah GOD i wonder wat dia holy qurans r sayin abt dz. . .

onion is only expensive in 9ja.

i think it's all over 9ja

You can cook without onions & enjoy your meals. You have different spices in the market to garnish your soup & stew. Cooking without onions therefore is no big deal.

Why didn't you just come out to type, 'I hate muslims' instead of what you wrote up there? What proof do you have that what you said is true? None. Yet you just came here to castigate the way of life of millions of people.
Fine the crisis in the North is the main cause of the increase in prices, but it's not due to the Northerners 'thinking negative thoughts' and hoarding them. It is because the crisis has led to having the fear of going up North to get the onions by traders, and as a result, the few onions they suceed in bringing down are expensive.
And it is cheap over there because it is grown over there.
Nobody is hiding onions because they are thinking negative thoughts.

Onions is very good 4 d eyes. Hey whats all dis scarcity sef? Dis is work of Atiku 2 ruin Jonathan govt. Jonathan pls dis shld be included in ur manifesto.  FREE ONIONS 2 ALL IF VOTED IN.

I learnt d onions r being swept away by flood in d North, hw true can dat be?

@ topic. The effect of cooking without onions is that

a. If your soup goes sour, you cannot repair it.
b. My neighbours late dinners will no longer cause me to eat in the dream. Thus, my mum will stop taking me for deliverance. _yay!

Crises in d north caused scarcity,are u guys joking or what? Where is d crises in d north,so d secteral unrest in jos alone means violence in d north,onion scarcity was caused by d terrential rainfall last yr in d north west

Heard it is related to climate change. That's what happens when the rain falls when it should be dry and vice versa. May God help us.

Bigots.

I wonder why people just comment on what they know nothing about (no insult intended)
I live in the North and onion is very expensive over here too. Infact a basket of onion was sold for as much as N1500 in Riyom, a village in Plateau state where agricultural products are reputed to be very cheap.
