You people are so funny.

You support genocide in Gaza and Iran but you want cheap yam and cheap food.

God doesn't reward evil.

The fertilisers used to grow that yam pass through the Strait of Hormuz currently being blockaded by the blockhead in the White House you worship.
That's why the price is rising.
So enjoy your high prices and leave Tinubu out of your mouths.
Agbadorians can defend even what Satan himself admitted to have committed and own up to it.

Dem swear for una?

Insecurity is one of the main reason.

Benue state is the biggest yam provider's in Nigeria.
Today, due to insecurity many yam farmers cannot access their farms
Many fear of either the herdsmen killings or bandit's attack.
I know of a Tiv Farmer that could not harvest all his yams last year for fear of being killed in the farm
In Sokoto state, many farmers now pay taxes to bandit's before they are allowed to go to their farms.
Tinubu obviously knows that he inherited insecurity from Buhari, but after 3 year's Tinubu could not stop insecurity but rather insecurity escalated.
Tinubu have refused to resign after failing Nigerians.
Who is the CinC that has failed in his job of ensuring security of lives and safety of properties in Nigeria huh

Is unfortunate that Nigeria only have a President and do not have a Commander in Chief.
The bandit's are the real Commander in Chief

That is what a government is also for.
To plan for such exigencies.
Is it a sin that we cannot produce our own fertilizer from the same oil and gas we have.

So you can protect your elected leaders all you like and defend failure but you will still spend more of your hard earned money on basics and get poorer in the process.

Wars are a part of humanity and have existed since the creation of the world and wars in the middle east have occured with such predictable regularity that every regime has experienced the benefits of high energy prices including this one.

Ask them what they are using the excess, the receipts above the budget rate for.

Anywhere Yam occurs in the equation, substitute for bread. Yam and egg becomes bread and egg, yam and beans = bread and beans😋...and so on.
Re: Yam Prices Rise In Lagos, Consumers Lament by Azazyel: 9:31pm On Apr 26
I hardly eat yam sef. Potatoes and cocoyam are enough for me. Once people shift their attention from yams, you'll see how the price would drop like magic

Every incompetence must be blamed on Strait of Hormuz now
That's how some clowns blamed rising cost of bread on the war in Ukraine then
It seems Dangote fertilizers and Eleme Petrochemical plants are no longer working since we're now hiding under Iran war for rise in food prices

Dummies everywhere

Nah by force to chop yam.....i can live without yam for a whole year.......potatoes is an alternative and taste really good as pottage.
May God deliver you from the spirit of suffering
So you're happy that yam is out of your reach DND001 you can only afford potato
Same way you were in another thread telling people to come and learn how to manage suffering
Bro this one no be life you dey live so
Re: Yam Prices Rise In Lagos, Consumers Lament by Kukutente23: 7:28am On Apr 27
Lithiumite:
How many yams have you planted to make Nigeria food sufficient even in your back yard how many?

You people just blame senselessly, everyone knows nigerian food economy is dynamic and keeps fluctuating due to our seasonal nature of farming,everyone atleast with a brain,excluding your ilk of course knows we are going out of yam season and prices would naturally go up this period till October when we will be back in harvest season and prices drop again.

If you want cheap food where you will be able to buy food for dirt cheap,you must be ready to switch to GMO foods as they have abroad and be ready to die from the side effects.....we majorly consume organic foods here in Nigeria and its a blessing to us and cheap too.....organic food abroad is usually expensive too.
Lol
So how come Nigeria has the lowest life expectancy rate in the world and the West with their GMO have the highest
Stop thinking like a cave man
Tell your political god to build storage plants so yam can be available all year round
That's what serious govts do not give excuse for incompetence
Re: Yam Prices Rise In Lagos, Consumers Lament by Truvelisback(m): 10:16am On Apr 27
We haven't seen the season 2 of Tinubu yet. Wait till 2027.

Your state govts should do that too because they are the closest to the farmers,your state can equally grow and store enough yams and sell to the rest of us.....whats your gov doing.

Oh suddenly the gov is now responsible for food security?
But Tinubu did not blink twice before removing a gov from seat. That shows that he sees his office and powers as superior to that of a gov so only a dummy will be asking those with lesser powers to take over the responsibilities of a higher power
This nonsense of shifting presidential responsibilities to govs started under APC with their data boys and it's now getting ridiculous

Show me anywhere in Nigeria the federal govt owns any land......where are the lands domiciled?

What exactly are the responsibilities of a gov or is it only going to Abuja at month end to receive allocations and pay salaries?

Agric is on the concurrent list and all the fg can do is make policies while its the sub nationals that can engage in the physical part......the fg has lost billions to trillions of naira to agric initiatives such as anchor borrowers,Bank of agric,Research etc with nothing to show for it.....there is no way we can be self sufficient in food if the sub nationals themselves arent ambitious enough in that regard.

Federal govt owns lands in every state of the Federation
Go back to school and learn
Where did you get your own idea that the FG is only to make policies? Where did you learn your own govt that states are implementing units for federal policies?
That the Federal govt is corrupt and inefficient does not mean the state should take over its responsibilities since even the state can be corrupt or is more corrupt in most cases.
All of Nigeria's food reserve are with the FG. If the FG has failed to manage our reserves you can't blame to state for that
Besides, do you know the kind of capital required to research into strategic storage and build it? How many states can afford it? Other countries are self-sufficient in food without crying to sub-nationals. Only zombies reason that way
