no hope in sight sincerely. Price of goods has increased beyond reasonable expectations.

She too should go into farming as part of her own contribution to the national food effort.

Sitting in your comfortable place mouthing criticism is not enough.

Get into your booth, grab a cutlass and shovel and get into your backyard and work. Grow pepper. You are not more special than the farmers growing pepper.

If you don't have a backyard, get a small farmland somewhere. You can even employ a farm hand to help you.

Sitting on a high horse asking how people on N70k can afford pepper is not going to magically make pepper cheaper. Producing more pepper will.

Chinese and other serious people around the world get on with doing things. They don't wait for their government to subsidise everything for them, including pepper.

There is no country in the world where everything is cheap.

In Nigeria, Rice was around N150k a few months ago. Now, it is around N65k. Beans was also super expensive, but I hear it is much cheaper now.
If pepper is expensive now, as a seasonal product, a time will come when it too will be cheaper.

Do anyone force you to buy N55k pepper . Did they grow that pepper on Jupiter to be so ridiculously expensive like that?

not everyone will go into farming, I hope you know that. Insecurity has taken over the northern states where enough foods are produced. Very unfortunate situation in Nigeria

You can't see Helinues here.
Things are quite difficult beyond citizens bearable limits. It's not something to keep quiet. I see anyone who defends this government as heartless and self-centered.
If anyone tells you the reforms will work or is working, he's just using that to defend his personal pockets as a political jobber. No Reform is working and will never work. This situation we found ourselves will persist till even after 2027.
If you talk they will tell you grow your own foods. Even if you grow your own foods, when you remove all expenses after harvesting, you will still find yourself at loss. Farmers are also groaning, nothing is working as far as human warfare is concerned in Nigeria

So where are they selling pepper for N55k ? Is the pepper for party or home use?

I should address the issue? Which issue again. So even upon referring you to my earlier comments you are still saying this.

Who do you like this now?

Adetoun will answer that. You can hear her well on the video posted. Its just that inflation on foods is so much high and no solution in sight.

Leave Adetoun out of this and let's be logical about it. Even at supermarket, how many pepper would they pack together to make N55k?

how much is a bag of pepper. In our various homes, people can't afford the fresh pepper again. What people are buying is party jolloff sachets tomato 🍅 paste. The inflation on foods are unbearable.

Pepper is pretty expensive

Someone needs to do something about it.

Even if means they start importing pepper too, I don't care.

Was at Ilepo market on Saturday evening. That's the price of a bag of tomatoes of that size. Read that again, "tomatoes" without pepper. I wasn't told. I was there.

I'm currently in Ghana to explore life here.

We may never know how cheap living in Nigeria is until we visit our neighbours grin

Things are already cheap in Nigeria. We just need decent jobs to be able to live a better life.

What do you intend to do with 55k pepper? Are you hosting a party or something?

You said it is insecurity?
But I think its corruption that has lead the northerners to shadow those killers. Government has it own fault but if government fight boko haram as it suppose to be will you not be the same person pleading for those found culprit. THINGS CANT WORK Normal JN A CORRUPT SOCIETY.
YOU SAID TINUBU CAUSE IT? Yes the government should have started a farming scheme in every State? But will the corrupt citizen allow this idea to sail....
Most companies owned by government are just for milking the nation with corruption.

What about southwest where they have amotekun? Do u think people are ready to farm Let the lady start farming now. I am starting a farm in some months. And I have the one planted in my house.
The truth is Nigerian like ready made..
What are we really producing..
You don't need government to do those things. Most of our citizens has millions to run farming, what have they (musicians) with millions contribute to the society aside oppressing with securities and lavish life.
And for most our youth wasting time on online and illegal source of income.

If Pepper is selling @ N55k and we are claiming to be having farmers in Nigeria, I think it's better to have a rethink.

Please save the story of the herdsmen. Some strangers can't just come from no where and be disturbing you( farmers) in your own land. Sense no dey inside that excuse
