Continue deceiving yourself.

Goat and chicken in rural areas are always cooked only on Christmas day.

Pomo is the source of protein in rural areas in the west
You need to travel more sir

dwarf Ram, dwarf Goat and local Chicken is the major source of protein for rural dwellers in the south west sir.

Many rare chickens in the west?

How possible is that.
Goat and local Chicken is the number one source of protein for poor or rural dwellers in the South west.

You need to travel out of your region.

Infact their goat and Chicken are always are causing problems.

Only the rich in the west will be able to afford meat now.

No more 500 naira meat for many of you especially for those who are unemployed and students.

As for those who still live with their parents, if you were talikng 2 meat now it will be reduced to half
Was there N500 meat before your blockade

Most meat that they cut for N100 for one even before the blockade.

Fish has always been an option for poor people in the south west even before the blockade. There's still fish of N150 for one, but I can't eat it tho.

And many rear their own local or broiler chickens.
Politics › Re: Blockade: Meat Scarcity, High Food Prices Persist In Lagos, Ibadan, Others by Iamgrey5(m):
Rice is still thesame price.

Beans is N800 from N650-700(Oloyin)

Tomatoes has risen from 100 to 200/ 200 to 500, local tomatoes is not in season

Abuja yam moved from 1000 for three tubers to N2400, local yam is not in season

Gari is still thesame.

Lafun ( white Amala remains the same)

I didn't price black Amala.

Palm oil remains the same

Beef has doubled in price


My own observations from Ibadan today.

I should tell you? Before this issue came up, when last did you visit the market?

I actually visit markets for the fun of it and also for research purposes (work related)

Chicken is ₦1450, turkey is ₦1650 (Egbeda, onipani, ketu, iyana ipaja. etc).

I am not talking about 1 week ago.
My guy you are slow tho !

You are talking about frozen food that has nothing to do with the report or Northerner food blockade.

Go and read the report again and give yourself a dirty slap.

I jst want to ask, why don't the south cultivate beans and tomatoes and all, is it that it doesn't grow over here or something??
South West cultivate tomatoes but it's seasonal.

We don't have irrigation system like Northerners.

Although it's time to look at that.

It’s a family issue,should be settled as such.

Although South West never asked you to go to war.

Food is currently at the cheapest in East in particular

Tomatoes and Cows full everywhere like rain water


Only west should work hard to get food security, they are currently balling in the East.

Please make your points without having to cook up fallacies.

As expensive as Lagos is, you can comfortably buy the above at the above prices in alot of locations in Lagos.
Please tell me Where you can buy N50 tomato in Lagos and N1500 broiler.

You Must be living in lala land.

You don’t know yoruba .. even tho you’re Yoruba

Or

I’m chatting with a kid that don’t know modus operanti of southwest politicians

Yoruba and media propaganda are inseparable

Even with the exit of print media.. their online urchins are pulling.

Only that Yoruba propaganda is getting outdated and not serious

No one takes it serious again

Look at this northern and southern embargo they’re pushing.. even tho yoruba knows too well that they fight is between Yoruba and Hausa farmers

What do you call it

Are people pushing it not paid to push it?

Or you think they’re out here on a flat stomach?

Wake up
Bla bla bla is all I see what you wrote above

Conjuring ridiculous lies off your arse

You mean I am Yoruba but I don't know my society more than you.

Truth is what your people love to hear

Shebo you were all over abusing Hausa Fulani to keep their market. That you’ve lots of alternative

Stick with your alternative and leave southern Nigeria out of it

As for the news

You never heard of Brown envelope journalism

Yoruba pay for article .. reason they call them Lagos Ibadan express way

It never means Yoruba owned them

Told you.. you’re a kid.
Yorubas will pay for article at Daily trust when they have Punch and Tribune that is widely more circulated and read.

You must be a kid

It's sad that yorubas keep suppressing news like this in other not to look too bad

Your people said strangers are Killing them and you said u would looking into the matter ?

What happened to dispatching a team to go to the spot instantly this is a matter of life or death na ?

The whole country have bad leadership , my own south east the worst but one thing about Igbos is with or without government support ...we can take this at all..... fulanis can only attack a village in igbo land n run ....but to stay and control locals ? That can never happen
Obviously it's an Igbo news agency that brought it to limelight.

North should keep sending food down east and southern minorities

And forget about daily trust Yoruba propaganda

Observe only daily trust and the nation have been on this propaganda on how tomatoes onions are perishing and how farmers are losing

Is a reverse psychology

Yoruba states are feeling the heat more than those farmers

Keep it going to Cameroon Niger eAstern Nigeria

Pls North should allow this embargo on southwest last

Na propaganda and mouth Dey get... na propaganda be all this
Local ipob tout

Daily Trust and Daily Nigeria belongs to Hausa Fulani people with its headquarters in North

Any propaganda from them is used to support them.

Don't let Yoruba matter kill you.

Okay.... Time will tell.

Your likes could not boycott foreign rice despite the price and readily available close substitute, and you talking of beef.
I have heard you. NO ARGUMENT Time will tell..
lol

You mean it's the same quantity of foreign rice that is being consumer now as at when it was 8k?

HacheNoire:
You seem not to be conversant with the product been mentioned. Tell me a market where a product like beef had been substituted or lost market share.

I gave examples earlier about the ban on imported rice. What did the ban do to price? Even with a readily available substitute.

You talking opportunity cost for a basic.

Quote me and requote me again when reality dawn's on you. BEEF WILL NEVER HAVE A SUBSTITUTE.
It seems you are living in Jupiter

in a price sensitive Nigeriahuh

Beef can even be substituted by ordinary eggs.

ok let break down to the simplest form

Beef is s source of protein often used to subsidize or compensate our excess carbohydrate diet in Africa.

Other source of protein include Pork, Fish, goat meat, Guniea fowl, Turkey, chicken, bush or forest meat, domesticated rabbit, snail and even egg.


Opportunity cost is alternative forgone e.g

For example, if My salary is 50k I can't afford beef for 5k so because of the excessive price, I will go for fish. I can get buy fish for 700h (alternative forgone is meat)


In the end, I got my protein but the cow sellers lose genuine opportunity to make money while the fish seller is cashing out.

Simple enough for you sir.

Hello! We talking beef here and not beer!

Are you same person I told to give an example of market where this has played out? It has never happened and why I call it fiction.

Again! Beef is the subject and not beer.
Bro what has beer got to do with opportunity cost?

Are you sure you did economics in Secondary school to begin with?

Seems you have comprehension problems.

My emphasis has been that consumer's will continue to pay for the staple product.

In factual reality, YOU CANNOT BOYCOTT BEEF.

It can't stand or hold. Pure fiction!
You have no Idea of what basic economics is sir, neither do you know the through definition of staple food.

Please answer the basic economics question sir

What is opportunity cost?

Move-on from beef grin. Where has this happened?

Suppliers will lose while consumer's pay through their nose. It's a lose-lose

Like I said, price will only continue to go higher and consumer's will keep paying.

Economics 101.
Ok bro

Customers will lose the sensation of beef taste shey? cheesy



Please you don't know the first thing about Economics.
Politics › Re: Ram Costs N1million In Lagos As Cattle Traders’ Strike Bites Harder by Iamgrey5(m): 11:42pm On Mar 02, 2021
HacheNoire:
I ask again. Where has this your economics realistically played out.

You can't take beef out of the market. The market can't boycott it and action will continue nly continue to take a toll on price.

Think you have to get an estimate of cattles slaughtered a day in Nigeria, then from there, you can start thinking about what happens to all the consumer's.


I unwarranted boycott is foolish, baseless and stupid. Rather, stakeholders should be on the table storming about a resolution.
I don't understand the point of your argument anymore bruv

The suppliers decided to pull out supply from the market and create artificial scarcity for a political reason.

The suppliers should be informed that the market doesn't work like that as the market will eventually move on after the initial shock.( if you have their Number)

It's the suppliers that will lose opportunity to earn money in the process.

Especially when there's enough substitute to their products.

Those selling the substitutes will also make a fortune in the process because the demand for their products and price of their commodity will increase.
