This new yam was sold to me for 2000 naira because i was a customer. In my present it was sold to another woman with abeg for 2500.

It was my usual customer and I bought more than one.

The increase was due to inflation in the country in addition to transportation cost.

This yam was cheap because if was onitsha yam that was transported to enugu. I was told the transport cost 200k.

Hausa yam wouldn’t be cheap either the ondo yam here was very small and expensive. Benue yam is yet to arrive but that still would be more costly.

Play play food don dey turn another thing now

This is Nigeria

With abeg E reach to beg, brother

That yam I'm seeing shouldn't exceed 1000 maximum irrespective of location and it's not even a big one

With income of many families in Nigeria, how many can afford that tuber of yam?

That yam is even more affordable here in the UK when you put earnings into consideration. What a minimum wage earner here earns in about 30 mins can buy that same tuber of yam.

Not entirely true

You think prices of goods will remain fixed across the country? OP clearly stated that a woman bought the same size for 2.5k with abeg.

I don't think you really understand the situation of the country sha.

Possible. Abuja got yam in excess, and the city is closer to Benue.

I tell you.
Nigerian or African foodstuffs are cheaper here these days compared to Nigeria.

My tribe man must rule by force. His friends and cronies must rule with him.
Goodluck to them.
