Una no like fulani bandits una still dey complain of price action of cows. I still feels that setting up ruga settlements in every state in nigeria will help reduce fulani menanace and hence bridging the costs of cows.

Please do you happen to have a picture of the size of the cow for that amount?

Also, how much do you think the total cost of the cow will be if one has to transport it down to the Bayelsa State and Rivers State?
I didn't take pictures, transporting to that place it's not usually easy.... But here we have cattle market every Thursday, even with 700k you'll get a good one.....

Laple0541:
Each region should invest heavily on animal husbandry especially private bodies to ease unnecessary over-reliance on cattle from outside the country or the north.

The government should equally improve the security situation of the country.
If each state is given 10,000 cows and professional agriculturists are hired to rear them, this would solve too much problems.

On this mandate we shall stand! Keep blindly defending your master while you lot continue to leave in abject poverty.

Cows are not imported and we have them in surplus. Some pillock will come out to say it's demand driving up the price when most can't even afford to buy it's tongue.

It's still expensive boss. A lot of people prefer beef to other proteins.
Lithiumite:
4,500 you mean, thats what a crate of eggs cost about $3 for 30 eggs....still way cheaper than beef which gives fir 7,500 about $5 a kilo and which gives you 12 cuts which a family of 4 will consume in 2 meals max but eggs will cover for 2 weeks at the least.

Fish on the other hand also cost about 5,000 on the average $3.50 which gets you about 9 to 10 cuts.

Am hooked on smoked dry catfish, very sweet with everything, even if you boil it with water onions pepper, garri don set, with beans, with Stew anything. And it is cheap you don't need fridge to store it
Lithiumite:
Exactly what I am saying,this beef dealership are reaping southerners off......boycott their beef and find other protein sources.

High price of food is a good sign of food insecurity and looming famine.
