I visited a rural area for a community project and spent 4weeks. I ate pounded yam with correct egusi soup and bush meat almost every day as lunch .

Drop location

I still bought some pieces of 2k yam today.

Yam is always expensive this period ,looking dry and sweet. New yams will soon be here.

NigeriaIsGreat:
you also refine your crude oil, manufacture your drugs, milk, and other essential items.

Life is not that hard you know, he actually laid emphasis on yam and went on to credit himself for having almost everything at home which he meant food items but you just wanted attack, easy okay free your mind soul

I priced yam today at oja oba, ibadan. 6pieces was 16k. I no buy am ooo.

You will now understand why the Igbos have the New Yam Festival .
No matter the economy , the lion cannot eat grass .
The lion will continue to eat the meat that it knows .
Even if a tuber of yam is #20,000 naira , we will still buy it ...
Odogwu bu Odogwu ...

yam is for big men now this is the country we found ourselves

Brandiebird:
Or in 7 to 8 months you could join the elite and sell your yam for 9-10k. That guy had a smart solution, all you had was whining and complaining. I'd pick his mentality over yours any day!

Slave mentality! A mentality of a typical African who has been conquered by corrupt elites and politicians.

The mentality of cowards, a population of over 250 million people can not rise and hold few corrupt elites who continue to mismanage their economy, who continue to inflict economic hardship, who continue to loot their destiny and collective wealth.

Instead of standing up to them, instead of demanding accountability, social justice, good governance and making a mess of these corrupt political vampires, they cowed and believed that growing 4 - 10 tubers of yam in their backyard is the right mentality and solution to their problem.
To you its adjustment, to you it's a smart move, it's surviving, it's whatever the government throws at us we will survive. SHAME! SOMETHING MUST BE ENDEMICALLY WRONG WITH A BLACK MAN

Oya Mr smart man grow everything. cassava, corn, okro, melon, pepper,rice and beans? Is it only yam you want to grow?

When I hear people like you talk like this, I remember how messed up, irreversible and hopeless Nigeria is

it was in this country that a big tuber of yam was sold for 100 naira to 150 naira, why is it 7k today? Ponder and reflect.

Have a good night rest!

Mohisah:
Lol lemme not throw u Superman punch😁

..super wetin?🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃

I last bought yam in February this year. Three (3) big sizes for N5,500.

Infact eh! plantain own worst, can't remember when last sef..

Yam fills the stomach more than potatoes

Nope potatoes fill it more
Google is your friend

Yams are cheaper in the North. It would have been a great idea to have someone purchase them for you from here and waybill it to your end, but the cost of waybill is a setback. Over here, 5 tubers retail for 7 to 9k.

I stand to be corrected, but I think Nigerians complain too much…

Everyone can plant yam now. Buy a tubber, find rice or cement bags. Cut yam into pieces protect them with ashes. Plant and water every morning and evening.
You'll be surprised after 8 months yams can grow so big in bags.
The policies have killed Nigeria. Let everyone device ways to survive.
Go on YouTube and search "Planting yams in bags" you will see several videos on it.

Yam no just gree listen to propaganda 😄😄😄

Unlimitk:
Lol here in benin
I don't buy yam again
Sweet potatoes is what I buy
Sweet potatoes is more nutritious cooks faster and has high fiber that fills the belly that u don't feel hungry
Nothing dey yam
Sweet potatoes self get vitamin a for eyes
U don't need to add salt or sugar
It already has sugar inside it
Sweet potatoes of 10,000 naira lasts for 2 weeks plus
And they rarely spoil inside and last long compared to yam
Na sweet potatoes I dey chop now

See what tunubu has caused. Babablu has taken away your right to freedom of choice. It's quite sad

Will you stop deceiving yourself

How many food items can you plant in a year? Only vegetables can work like this . The yams I planted since last year haven't grown to any mature stage and when I harvest them let's say they're 5 , how long will it take my family to finish it?
No country grows on subsistent farming government have to fully and truly support large scale farming, improve security for farmer and provide cheaper means of transportation

Sweat potatoes decay faster than yam if not properly stored and are now very expensive in Lagos. The smallest you can get in Lagos now is #500. You can only buy it in large quantities if you want to eat it daily or resell it.

alpharoyalty:
You forgot to add plantains.

crossriver average size of plantain is 3k

dominique:
I don't know where they're selling average sized yams for 9-10k, the ones I got about w weeks ago are 3 slender ones for 6k (2k each)

It's the time of the year when yams are scarce and expensive. By July/August, new yams will start becoming available. If you and some people can join money to buy yams from the abokis that sell in heaps in mile 12 market, it makes a lot of sense.

Haaaaa
You and people join to buy food?

The Agbado sifu has really destroyed this land

ambale:
Yam no just gree listen to propaganda 😄😄😄

Very rugged entity

one4GOD:

Unlimitk:
Yea bro
And it's more nutritious in every way even more than rice and more cheaper
Yam is very overrated and overpriced
Sweet potatoes also saves gas
Before 10 minutes it's done

I don't even know what the taste of yam feels like, na potatoes and beans be my daily food now.

As I'm typing this now I'm eating potatoes and beans

Stop being mischievous, it's government's responsibility to ensure food is affordable, in Europe and most working nations the cheapest things one could afford is food. Tinubu has failed this country
