If everyone in a home has a job, this wouldn’t be an issue. I bought a crate two days ago for 6,400 Naira.

Vague reportage without evidence. The outlets quote NAN as source but NAN doesn't have any article on their website.

Nigeria is facing a fresh spike in egg prices, with a crate now selling as high as N8,500 in some retail outlets, driven largely by a shortage of day-old chicks (DOCs) that has constrained poultry production and tightened supply across the country.

Findings show that farm gate prices have risen to about N5,500 per crate, up from N5,000 in January 2026.

Retailers now sell between N6,000 and N6,500 depending on egg size, while supermarkets and large grocery stores price crates between N7,000 and N8,500, reflecting rising distribution and operating costs, News Agency of Nigeria reported.

Just few years ago (LESS THAN FIVE YEARS), a crate was not even up to ₦1,000.

Does this means that Nigerians will soon be buying one egg for up to ₦500 at restaurants?

Egg is supposed to be the cheapest and the most affordable food and source of protein. In fact in many parts of the world, egg is subsidised and cheaper than water.

What kind of government is this?
No light
No food
Waiting for all those senseless and defenders of evil and GREEDY PEOPLE to also blame it on the war in the middle East.
