and stop making false and unsubstantiated claims. My guard left his job to take advantage of the farming season up north. But youths in the south are lady, only woke in making noise on SM

Lol, the fact that youths in the south do not like farming means they are lazy? Where is your intelligence?
The fact that there are Almajiris, ex Almajiris who can work in the farm in exchange for water means Southerners are lazy?
The rich people in the North are the ones that own farms majorly, not an average youth. They invest lots of money in farming, they have cheap labour, thats why they are able to produce massively. Farming there is just like herding, the children herding cows are no different from slaves, looking tattered, uneducated, etc,same thing when you get to their farms. Will you now say those children are more hardworking than our children just because they spend every minute in the bush with cows?
Again, Southerners are more hardworking than any Northerner that I have met.

FORBES 30 UNDER 30.

BIG HEARTY CHEERS TO MALLAM DANLADI.

Not surprising. Onions alongside some other foods have always been cheaper in the north.

Not surprised though...am aware onions is gonna be cheap over there in the north

Southerners capitalize or rather take advantage of a situation to enrich themselves at every slightest opportunity...
They increase the price of everything beyond what it is supposed to be once they notice or sense a looming situation just to make wealth...our own selfishness and quick money in this South is too much

There should be a price regulation or rather price control

Correct talk

Then try to do the same and realize what the actual problem is.

Sure, it is cheaper in the north because that's the source of the produce
By the time you pay for high transportation costs, spend days instead of hours on the road, and settle the uncountable police and military checkpoints along the road....do you expect the price to remain as low as it was in the north? Plus, there is less harvest due to bandits/terrorists activities. Just few days ago you saw in the news how farmers are tasked by bandits before they can harvest their crops. A village paid millions as tax to bandits just to be allowed to harvest their crops.

Even that quantity of onions for ₦200 is expensive for Bauchi and the north in general. It had become expensive.

The way the different retailers buy it from wholesalers in the various markets is same way they would sell.
Are you trying to say all the market women and street side vendors in Lagos, Ogun, Osun, Rivers, Imo, Delta etc all sat down, discussed and connived to increase the price of onions?

onyechez:

Your type just talk anything on a public forum without doing due diligence. Do you know the hurdle in transporting the onions from bauchi..
So you know dey hear say north say they don't want to bring their agricultural yields to the south again for the main time. It seems you don't know what's going on in Nigeria as we currently speak. There are many northerners that bring this onions down south before now but because of the tribal clash that's why they have put trading activities to hurt.

No matter the condition, many goods are still arriving from North to other parts of the country. So pls stop forcing limitation on yourself

honest1480:
Why not take advantage of the price difference to make some cool money for yourself by buying it in large quantity and sell it in another State where the demand and price are high?

I can bet my left balls that you have never been to the North before I mean far North, did you think is easy to buy Onions from Bauchi and send it to Lagos or Port- Harcourt

goshen26:



So na Southerner de sell onion for market?


Bro/Sis, in case u don't know, this is deliberate action from the Northerners

Abeg no mind them, is it not the same nairaland a professor said hoarding of Agriculture products from the North is a challenge to the south!!!
People on NAIRALAND has short memories.

You don't even know what laziness means. Check up your dictionary.
You don't know them beyond what the media makes you think of them. Youths in he south are lazy. Its a FACT.

Now, I didn't say ALL YOUTHS. Go to Delta, Warri, Bayelsa, Anabra, Lagos etc and see them there.

Walk out of this thread while I Smoke my weed with anger

stop saying what you don't know. The price hike is not caused by South westerns it was increased by the same northerners cos of high cost of transportation and other factors

I've done my part.

How you guys make big issues out of trivialities beats my imagination.
Someone is already bleating on the front page how the South will go extinct if the North decides not to send “onions” to the South again.

Very funny set of people.

These things have their season. When it’s not their season, you buy very small quantities at very high prices. Simple Economics theory.
Now look at the sizes of those onions, very tiny things, just to tell you it’s not its season.
When the season for onions to be in abundance again comes around, I hope all of you will still come back to post how much you bought a basket of onions.
These things happen every year and onion is not the only food item that it affects.
Tomatoes are another good example of what I’m talking about.

Start your business already

This is true to an extent. But one cannot deny the fact that transportation these days is quite expensive. Most of the time, when you consider the cost of transporting these food items, they add their gain(albeit too high), and this becomes expensive for the end user.

I could be wrong but I do not think there's even onions in the north like that judging from these ones Op bought that are way too small in size.

If anyone is interested in buying from the north i can link you with sellers in kaduna.you can reach me on whatsapp 07035141209 or call

What limitation? You're the only one forcing the limitation on yourself when the truth is there for everyone to see.
Are you in all part of the country to see what is going on with specific goods not distributed to all or the high cost ?
Did I say many goods aren't arriving from North to other part of the country?
Is it not on NAIRALAND a professor said hoarding of some Agriculture goods from North is a challenge to the south?
I am clearly waiting my time on something that's not useful or just empty nothing more.

For Abule egba side of lagos..
One nah 30naira..

ur side still better

Small small onions dey irritate me, I hate to see them. I can only buy a few for making noodles and frying eggs, but I can’t stand them in large quantities.

Mariangeles/MariahAngel, do you feel the same way? I want to be sure I am not alone.

Media? Lol, well, since all your information about Nigeria is from the media, then I don't blame you
Well, I lived in the North, schooled in the South, ive been to all part of Nigeria, so go learn and come back. 80% of Northern women are jobless and do absolutely Nothing
Northerners are hell lazy people, its an embarrasment comparing the North to the South

Well, get rid of your brain, since nothing is kuku there except inferiority complex

Please whatsapp by clicking on my signature. I can deal with you or you would connect me with a good farmer over there. Please it's urgent. Thanks.

Whilst in some part of the country, the price of Onions is bout matching the price of Gold lol....i and some newly made friends visited a market in Ganjuwa, Bauchi and see the amount of onions I got for just #200 if I should get to buy same in Ibadan I'll spend not less than #500/600

I guess I'm loving Bauchi already tho the cold has been hitting sha

jesu that is like ₦2,000 onion in my area.. those northern side are really enjoying o
at cheaper price DM for your logo and flyer design

Your very stupid enjoying what onions ? come to the North and enjoy nah.


North is Hell fire did you think the freedom you enjoy in the South you can enjoy here in the North ?

Here in Zamfara State your limited to so many things as Southerner

moscobabs:
I always say it that if North decide to fight South, they don't need any other weapon to fight us....They should just stop sending foodstuffs to the South....na Hunger go kill us for them.

We Southerners think we are too educated to farm, our land is green with good weather and fertile but we decide to hold on to insufficient white collar jobs.

So pathetic

U are wrong mister, we have borders. For example, see the cost of rice, now assuming the southern borders are open, u think rice will be sold for 25 to 30k? I have frds residing close to the border, I know what's up.

Very typical, am I surprised? Definitely not.
You do not know Nigeria as much as I do. You are probably in your 30s or less.
I know you are lying though, so I am not going to trade words with you. You know nothing, its obvious, reason why you are quick to insults, that's all you do.
Youths down south are lazy. Take that to the bank.

I bought one small onion for N100 in PH last week.

That quantity of onions should be nothing less than 2k in PH atm

You are not the only one in this thinking. We tagged them lazy and parasites when in fact, they're the real hardworking people. Farming is not easy but imagine people from the desert farming the year round and feeding people from the rainforest!
All what we do here is sitting on crude oil by chance and assume that we are the real hard working people. Lol
