AlhajiCSO:
cry

observe the yam properly you'll discover that some have burns around it.
these are probably whatever left from those yam fulani herdsmen burnt when they attacked the Benue people around last week or so.
the owner is just selling it off to avoid it rotting and to survive idp.
pathetic for Benue people.
e no go better for fulani herdsmen
e no go better for Tinubu.

You're funny AF

This is the period when Yam is dirty cheap in Benue Axis... Ever heard of Zaki ibiam ? perhaps that's where Op got his? Well, yesterday I passed through Benue and stopped somewhere in agatu. I bought something like what's in the picture.

At first I felt I bought it so cheap o. however seeing these pictures I feel like I was robbed. And that's because I bought it along the road. Op has his own car and can go down to real time traders not along the road sellers.

Mine was 5 mighty Yam rubbers for 2500 because I was on commercial bus. Very beautiful yams I Kid you not... Have you seen a bag of oranges? Did you know you can get one for 500 in Benue? Do you think "food basket of the Nation" their motto is a joke? My friend my friend.

Benue land is very fertile. Food basket of the nation. Imagine if we had functional rail to move farm produce in bulk from Benue to Lagos in no time and petroleum products from Lagos to Benue

Lagos is not the only state in Nigeria, for starters.

Nothing wrong with road transport but the middleman and legal thieves on the road is our major problem.

Even with the railway,they will continue extorting the vulnerable farmers.

Nigeria was just designed not to work. This is an example of the fact that only benue state can feed the nation but no, the witches at the top don't want it and janjaweedds are been used to achieve that. One day Biafra will go and lead a good life.

In Lagos you can only get 1 big tuber of yam for that 2500 or one medium size and a very small one put together for that amount with abeg.

I don't eat yam like that so I only had it once last year. This year I'm not sure if I'll even eat it. Don't even remember it exists.
haven't eaten for a year now used to be our usual but now it's a luxury. Cut ur coat according to ur material, shame
