Last year, I posted about the Ram my stepmother got for me cheaply even when my mom does not support dealing with her; this year follow suit, and she has delivered another banger.

Although I have walked around the market to price Ram, unfortunately the price is so outrageous, and I can't even stand it.

This gives me the idea to plan my budget, and I gave her 800k for 3 rams with the hope that if I am not comfortable, I will buy one Ogunfe to support it. And here is what she delivered...

Seriously, I don't know how to appreciate her enough, but my mom is not comfortable with the RAM and said it's too small for that amount...

All this, my mother doesn't go out or know what things are being said in the market, but she keeps annoying me with her resistance to the good gesture of my stepmother.

Please, what do you guys think about the price?

Here is the link to last year's Ram: https://www.nairaland.com/8444225/got-these-3-rams-500k

Note that the first picture is for my father and already delivered to him, and the other 2 is for me and my mom and she stays with me.

You got three rams of these sizes for #800k in this Tinubu (mal) administration and you are still asking us this question? Your mum would have gotten two of those for #900k if she had gone to the market by herself. But wait o, you gave your dad one and kept two for you and your mum who lives with you. What of your step mother who did a wonderful bargain in buying those rams? Don't you think she deserves something too?

Let it not be innocent human beings your step mum has turned into rams like this sha.

This one she's getting it soft for you like this back to back.


Tell her I sent warm regards

I don't understand this pls explain the meaning of this phrase innocent human beings

I read your story last year, I would advise next year let your mom go to the market herself with a budjet amount .let see what she would get. However, Please don't tell her your amiable stepmother is the one getting you the rams again

Thinking like a toddler

Jealousy dey worry your mama...


Meanwhile, try dey appreciate your step mom more. Even if it isn't a full ram of her own - maybe due to financial implications, you can gift her cash or something.


I saw the other thread you did and people gave you that advice but you seem not to have taken it.


As for the price of the rams I don't know if it is a fair deal... 800k for the three splits the amount for each to roughly 266k. The last time I bought a ram it was around 40k for a full mature bigger looking ram than the ones you posted years ago.


I understand the economic realities of the country is different now. But I wasn't expecting the gap to be that wide sincerely. Some years ago that 266k was the price of a very big cow.


Which way Nigeria? It is well fah!

If your step mom give you a Avery big cow for hundred thousand, your mom will still not appropriate it ..
Your mom believe she is in competition with her...
But somehow I believe your step mom have a good heart..
One of those ram is more than 350k here in Yaba.
We all love our Mom but I believe your mom is the bad one in the family.
Sorry to say.
Typical of polygamous family

2024: I bought 2 rams for 300k each
2025: I bought 3 rams for 500k each
2026: I bought 3 rams for 800k each

Please confirm I am correct

I also want to know the 2023 price

I wouldn't call her bad, it's just some women's nature. She may be highly spiritual and think everything comes at a cost meanwhile the other wife is trying to please her. Unfortunately, she may never be able to please her because if someone makes up their mind not to like you, they won't.

Seriously, I don't know how to appreciate her enough, but my mom is not comfortable with the RAM and said it's too small for that amount...

Your mother has not yet priced market in this Tinubu economy. I saw one of these rams you are showing us for 800k. Who's your stepmums plug?

I don't know how old you are but as a man you have to be wise with women especially in polygamy. Women's nature can be funny and they play funny games, including your mum too. I know you will find it hard to believe but it's true. That's why I asked about your age. Get closer to your dad and see things from his perspective then learn how to manage both mothers. You are a responsible man and God bless you for the way you handle your dad's wives. I don't want to recommend some of the resources I always post here but go through my posts, you will find them. You will never understand women but there are certain traits that they have you must know and once you know this, you know how to manage them.

Lastly, you are obviously a Muslim. Find out how to give your mom a sermon on this part

Seriously, I don't know how to appreciate her enough, but my mom is not comfortable with the RAM and said it's too small for that amount...

I know about your religion and like other religions, there is something it says about the etiquette of receiving certain things or you want me to give you references? Don't give her the sermon yourself, find a way she will get the message maybe through your spiritual leader or someone she will hear from and think again about her reaction.

Edit: see screenshot

You have more AI advice but I like the perspective it gave about what may be on your mother's mind and our cultural contexts. I assume you are also Yoruba. You have already told us the price so I am not sure how you want to maneuver that offline. But Nigerians like to chook nose in everything, it's you that will know what to tell them and what not to.

Give us updates where your step mom dey get am o, cos u fit dey hear 400k for one ram at those size.

Which kind gun your step-mother dey use?
Omo because e be like say na who carry gun fit run that kind show ohhh.

3 Rams of these size for 800k ahhhh.
Guy dash her small money, the woman try

In order to be at peace with both mother, stop telling your mum, it was gotten for you by your step mum

These are very massive rams for that price, I remembered the one I helped my boss to buy last year, she gave it out to a Muslim friend for 800k, just a little bigger than the white and black...

Congratulations once more

Since you know your mum's mindset towards your step mum, why do you continue to tell her about her RIVAL.

Next time tell her it was a friend that helped you out. That's how to deal with women.
Be a man!

Lastly, where is your house?

You and this your step mother every year

The woman really like you or your papa

See eh! The price of a ram on a normal day is different from the price when it's ileya and Salah time.
It quadruple if not more than sef.
The landlord in front of my place have two of those Rams posted above, same size.
In December last year, I heard they prized one at 600k and he refused to sell.
Those two Rams with extra 7 small one he has are still there.
He has been selling smaller ones instead.
.
I guess he just loves them as per, cus the way he takes care of them, hmm.

The ram of that size is about #350k+ plus.

It's a good price.

Not each, he bought the 3 rams for 800k..

So divide 800k by 3, thats how much he got them

wunmi590:

No, I want him to answer the question. Last year he got for 500k each. This year, we are dividing it. He himself has been to the market to price and all comments above have not said any ram they've seen is 200k+

Like 800k for 3 rams...omooo... No vex why uno kuku buy cow?

So. 3 ebula is 800k...god what am my doing in this Lagos. Ebula wey dey chop only grass. Just tieing somewhere make e dey chop grass dey go?

See how bad economy has become. The same sizes of ranks he got for 500k last year now cost almost double the price this year. Yet some people said they “turned the corner”

Wow. She did good although it's her business, so I guess she did not even collect transportation fees from you.
I sampled the markets the other day for a friend, and 1 slightly bigger than those you posted was quoted for 450k. I just wake jeje

I am a Christian, my wife a Muslim, she usually buys ram for her parent every sallah, but this year she doesn't have much so I stepped in, if you see the ram I bought for 200k ehn u will think your step mother stole these rams she bought for you. Things are extremely expensive . Make u thank her wella

Hope ur stepmother never jazz u? Cos those rams are too small for that amount. Ur mom is right, Abi u wan believe say stepmom love u pass ur real mom?

You better be careful, what an elder sees while sitting if you climb 10 storey you can't see it.
