Things are really getting expensive everywhere but seems to be better in some locations than the other (greed and selfishness inclusive)!

Right! Transportation cost has always been the 'fall guy'

It really do masks the greed of these traders.

Catalysttt:
This is the yams being loaded on trailers from my side to other regions of the country...

Catalysttt:
The bags packed on the ground beside the trailer truck is a sack containing shear butter seeds extracted from the Shear butter fruits from the Shear butter trees here. This bags are being shipped to other regions of the country for processing as raw materials to be converted to other finished goods and commodities ( I heard it's used for producing oils) I don't know the type though, maybe turkey oil or controller oil as it's commonly called here or something else.

I needed to upload more images but it's not longer responding.

Maize is here, groundnut is here, millet is here, guinea corn is here, yam Is here, white beans and soybeans will soon be out too by November and early December!

Everyone deserves right to eat and be alive! Food should be very much available and affordable regardless of what excuse for everybody!

I'm on the firm believe that what is the basis of survival such as food should not be an object of debate.

Diesel is 950 -1000 but transporters still charging same price when diesel was 1600-1800

Askme2020:
I like your mindset. You must be a good fellow. Nice one sir.

Konquest:
If those food delivery trucks and trailers in the uploaded image and elsewhere have dual CNG-gasoline hybrid fuel installed in them, that would instantly drive the cost of haulage and food sold in the markets down. Nigerian is more if a gas-producing country than a crude oil country because of the massive gas reserves which have more value in USD than the fast-depleting crude oil reserves.

With the war between the Israeli on one hand and Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran on the other hand, if things escalate further and Israel massively bombs Iran as planned, the international price per barrel of crude oil will rise thereby causing a rise in the pump price for many countries and also making absolute nonsense of the cost of feeding and transportation that folks in Nigeria are currently complaining about. A rapid and massive deployment of CNG (methane) fuel [which is cheap far cheaper than PMS at N200 to N230 per standard cubic feet of CNG from NNPC and NIPCO CNG refill stations] and CNG conversion kits or outrightly purchase already factory-priduced large CNG trucks and buses by the states such as Niger, Kano, Lagos, Ogun, Oyo, Delta, Edo, Imo, Rivers, etc, and the central government is what would prevent the spread of more hyperinflation thereby making nonsense of the so-called minimum wage that is being implemented by some states.

RoyalBlu:
OP you say 5k for all these yams? (In the first slide)

When some folks in the north post images of things and their prices, I see a lot people arguing that it's a lie and can't be possible. Well, I think the southern greedy traders have conditioned the brain of many people over there to always believe that it must be expensive and no any other way else, it's pathetic to see some other people crying for food which is supposed to be the basis of our existence and affordable to even the poorest amongst us, while some other people in the other places have this same food in abundance. Not always about the government being the issue but also the traders and the marketers too! Over here in my region, philanthropy, help of mankind and sympathy towards fellow humans is the other here. If not for the terrorism and killings going on here, cost of living and raising children with the best of life affordable things even to the poor are a bit easy here, ranging from housing to feeding to transportation and other basic necessities of life.

ayindejimmy:
If our government really have sense these are areas intervention is needed. Help farmers bring their produce to the market
Other States like Lagos should assist traders to transport their goods especially food stuffs to Lagos . This will reduce the food prices . Not selling rice

Catalysttt:
what a yet another classic rendition! I salute your submissions sir! It's an intelligent proposals.... I've always nurtured this same thought. The war going on in the Middle east is an opportunity for Nigeria as a serious nation to make a fortune for itself

Catalysttt:
I don't need to do that!

Catalysttt:
Were there supposed to be agberos on the road? Can't they find something sustainable to do for themselves to earn a decent living?must they have to live off at others effort?
