Where is their farmland? From Calabar south to Marina, across 11/11 through to 8th Mile. Where else is Calabar?

Lol. Have you ever heard of the central and northern Cross River? They are the highest cassava producers.

Oga read my posts well. Central is Akpet, they neither speak nor understand Efik, they are not calabar, they are cross river, northern cross river. Even the Efiks (Calabar) treat them as a different class. Calabar as a place ends around 8th mile. I told you before Northern Cross river feeds Calabar, Calabar as a people (Efiks) are lazy, proud and they love partying. They don't have farmlands. They don't even fish in their waters there at Marina

Last week, A man came from one of the villages to sale garri in Akpan Andem market Uyo. He was selling 3 cups for #500 and he was arrested by those garri sellers in the market. Akwa ibom have it so bad. There's a union for even vegetable and pepper sellers.

That’s the problem we have in AKpan Andem market, the unions. They bring out about 3 bags of garri and choose who to sell for that day and at a particular price. They chase you away if you attempt to bring in your stuff and sell at a cheaper rate. Very wicked set of people. I don’t know why government can’t do something about this. And these union people are all elders and deacons and even pastors in church o

So Cross River voted for Tinubu ?
I have come to realize that most of you making using hunger to make jest of people here are fools, one way wired idiots attracting more hatred to Peter Obi.

How can one be so stupid to think that anyone that complained about hardship must have voted for the incumbent president ? How daft could some people be ?

Stop disgracing yourself oga.

Otu Bassey is of which party again please? Which party controls at the center?
Not knowing the source of one's problem is complete stupidity!

Keep displaying your emptiness in the public.
Is Otu Bassey responsible for macro economic policies in the country ?
Are things cheaper in states ruled by other paties ?
Why such stupid remark when the people of Cross River voted for LP in the presidential election and made sure the party won the state ? So in your moronic view they must also vote for lp governor even when they have a better alternative ? So why didn't LP clear all the elective positions in Anambra Obi's own state ?

Some of you will just come online and start mocking anybody without using common sense.

Who's empty here?

What a shame that you just blabbed with no sense of proper reasoning.

What is Otu's job as the governor of the state? Did he not promise to make living better for the citizens while campaigning? If he is not in charge of macro economic policies at the center, how does that insulate him from the responsibility of ensuring food security for the people of the state? Is he not part of the national executive council where decisions concerning the entire country are taken? What has he put in place as the leader of the state to fight poverty? You deviated from that absolutely and got insultive.

When people scream that they are hungry, do they refer to the President only? What about other leaders, at other political levels? You sit there and watch leaders embezzle state funds, while you defend rubbish in the face of mounting hunger in your state.

No wonder you support leaders who make you live miserable lives while you eulogize them.

Who cares if you voted LP at the federal level? How would that make the difference if you chose a wrong leader in a better party?

You should be ashamed of yourself.

Oga, go and sleep if you do not have any reasonable this to say.

Garri is N1500 per rubber here.
People that have access to small piece of land should not complain about crops like cassava, cocoyam and maize. These 3 crops don't require much capital and manpower. If you can't do it by yourself, get a labourer to do it for you.

You people are azzsholes

APC is a Plague upon Nigeria and Tinibu is the PHARAOH.

We need a Moses and Joshua to lead us to the Promise Land.

Worse is that the ethnic bigots in the SW and their extreme Islam ☪️ comrades in the far north are not accepting that the alliance Tinubu initiated in 2014 has impoverished the masses in Nigeria, may even lead to reduction of Nigeria's population by half.

You still never get sense,
Was is gov Otu that removed fuel subsidy ?
Was it gov Otu that floated the naira ?
Was it gov Otu that closed border ?

Can any state insulate herself from the effect of unfavorable policies from the center ?

If the answer to the last question is yes, can you give example ?

We are talking about hyper inflation triggered by federal government policies

Ok since you believe Their APC governor is part of the reason why price of foods are on the increase in the state, can you now end this front and back argument by telling us the LP or PDP governor who have successfully curbed inflation in his state ?

Note that the last NBS report shows that Abia witnessed the highest food inflation in the north of march.

I am pro LP but I use my sense
