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

God bless you , I saw the full article on nairametrics yesterday and the reason for te surge is because hatcherys are totally booked and no more day old chick's available for the next 6 months or so .

Those had old stocks. Wait until they get new stock baba.
And 6000 is too much for a poor country bro. This is why I said, if u are earning 30m per year in Nigeria, u are struggling as long as u have family.
Most of the bills of those around u will be upon u. U cant watch them die. I spend between 30k to 40k on eggs per month.

I think it might be for 2 reasons, festive period such as Ramadan and Easter and the 2nd might be in other for the govt to accept the $900m Chinese Poultry investment Scheme on Mr Presidents table .
President Tinubu should pls reject Chinas offer because they China would gain more while our economy , poultry farmers like myself will lose more,and may then our economy will rely on China massively in the future for our poultry eggs and meat, then China would grow from Poultry to other areas of our Agric sector .
Let a nation and it's citizens farm and produce what it eats. We are what we eat , if you eat GMO or mostly fertilizer agric products you may develop Cancer and other ailments.
We have arable lands and labour force to produce our own foods , so why begging a foreigner to do that when you know they are more financially and technically exposed meaning they will kill and discourage our local farmers and home based investors.
What we need is tools , modern farm equipments , soft loans etc that will grow and modernize our Agric sectors

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.
I remembered when I used to buy crate 600 Naira. In year 2000.
Re: Egg Prices Surge To ₦8,500 Per Crate by Image123(m): 10:47am On Mar 30
After all the rants and wailing, you still buy. And you are blaming who?

Na. All the chickens are comrades and are protesting the harsh economic conditions. High cost of feed leading wide spread malnutrition (heard some chickens are now eating styrofoam like say dem wan lay plastic egg). Excessive heat caused by power failure so they have to roam about to get breeze but that leads to insecurity as some people that no longer have leftover to feed their pet dogs have turned them to fowl bandits.

So everyone in a home having a job means things should be expensive? Or its only food that is the expense of the home?
