What's the difference? Do mangoes rain there?

Guy go find work abeg. I don't have time for frivolous argument with a dimwit.

TheGiftedOne:
Good evening Nairalanders, I bought these 5 mangoes at the cost of #500 today at New Benin market, Benin City. I am greatly perturbed by the soaring prices of food items in the market these days. This country don your me.

For how much would you get this in your locality?

Nova1988:
I still don't understand how the South has more fertile land and the north is mostly desert but it's the north that produce more foods for the nation. how?

May God help us.

Which Lagos? Abi Lagos dey 2?

That mango in the picture is called German mango and is always expensive, I use to buy it 1000 at gate, cele and Ijesha bustop. Any body disputing this should bring it down to these places and people will rush it. For me that is my best mango.

I hate people that always argue blindly

Simple answer: Agricultural grants, subsidised cost of fertilizers.

80% of the Agricultural products coming from the North are grown with fertilizers provided by the government at hugely subsidised rates. That way, every ordinary farmer in the North has easy access to fertilizers as well as grant monies for start up capital.

Every other day you see news stories of government backed Agricultural initiatives, CBN sponsored incentives to ease farming and you don't wonder where these policies and monies mostly go to? I can confidently tell you that if the South was to get half of the Agricultural benefits accorded the North by successive governments, the South will long have had food autonomy to a reasonable extent.

I've lived and done business in several states of the North and I can tell you for free that Southerners are considered to be second class citizens when ironically, the South has the survival soul of the Nigerian economy and society. It's quite sad.

DoctorOlasDesk:
In the rural communities, these things are useless as they practically walk over them. Blame the high cost to logistics and spoilage. You also pay for the ones they don't sell that gets damaged

kals4luv990:
the north does not produce food na..food production comes from the middle belt nd this ppl ain't northerners
I know cause dats wer I grew up..

Nova1988:


when will y'all stop the victim mentality? no southerner is considered second class citizen in the north sir. I am a Fulani guy, I know what I'm saying.

It is the northerners that are considered as second class citizens, I know this because I've lived in Lagos since 2004.

Konjidam:
Op just relocate to kaduna, u go tire

Havertz10:
I referenced the plate not because I was under the impression that Benz owners use gold plate but I was trying to say that if the OP was living a form of privileged life that warranted such behavior from traders, he wouldn’t be using a plate like that or complaining about spending 500 for mango, and the fact that you couldn’t make that connection shows that you don’t have taste
