I saw a thread on the cost of mangoes a Nairalander purchased in Benin.

Please see attached the Mangoes I purchased for N1200 in Ogbomoso, Oyo State.

Please note that Ogbomoso is home of Mangoes.

My purchase is a good buy compared to the poster that bought 5 Mangoes for N500. However, the Mangoes I bought are still somewhat expensive because it's about the rate of N30 for 1 Mango. Ordinarily, it should not be more than N5 or N10 per 1 if not for the crazy inflation we are currently experiencing in the nation.

Don't mind me, I love Mangoes so much.

So one is been sold for 33 naira apx

I love mangoes very much.

Mangoes and red apples, I can manage to understand, but why never oranges? The king of fruits. Hmm?

These unripe mangoes?

Why? Is it because they're sweet?

For me, I like oranges o. Especially very juicy ones that are sweet and a bit sour.

@Red apples, I know right? Especially when they're crunchy.

Aren't they unripe mangoes?

They are all ripe. That's how Ogbomosho mango's look like outwardly but MEHENN you will fall in love with it after taking one. It doesn't stick to the teeth and it's VERY SWEET

Why not red apples? Do you have an apple tree or something?,

Do you like have those fruit trees in your compound or have access that keeps you from needing to purchase them or something?

Yes bro. Most times i call Neighbours and friends to come plug and enjoy anytime it gets ripe because Here, where I’m leaving it’s not for sale.

Mango is seasonal and is almost exhausted for this year by June.
