Yam sellers at Yan Doya, a popular market in Kaduna, have been lamenting low patronage because of high cost of yam which goes for as high as N10,000 per tuber. https://dailytrust.com/kaduna-residents-abandon-yam-as-100-tubers-sell-for-n1m/ 5 Likes 1 Share

In as much as this 10k per yam in the north sounds exaggerating, i have seen 6k own. Before APC came into power when I was in Minna the Niger state capital, I do buy 5pcs (set) of yam for #300-#800 max. When I was in Abuja 2017, my sister told me she bought a tuber for #700 and I said she wanted to do me 419. I never imagined a tuber of yam would get to 1k let alone above 5k. All thanks to APC. 491 Likes 58 Shares |

That is circa 10,000 per tuber And the agbad0 squad here on nairaland are threatening innocent protesters with death Which one do you think Nigerians fear more? Death by hunger or 'a sad APC BMC agbad0 members' words on a faceless forum? 🤡 188 Likes 17 Shares

Thieves. Eveyone wants to use their legitimate businesses to dupe people Yam seedling costs 400 Naira max. So, why should yams sell so costly ? A plot can accomodate 600 tubers and would only need some table spoons of NPK fron start till harvest, so why the expensive price. Most Nigerians thesedays heartlessly and indiscrimately increases the orice of their products to take advantage of their fellow human beings. Thieves 79 Likes 9 Shares |

Zwooks:the problem with people like you is that you feign ignorance about security of farmers. Is it to difficult for you to believe that farmers especially those who plant yams can't access their farms? Why did you skip that in the gibberish you just wrote? 191 Likes 12 Shares |

Lol. My dear Northerners this is the more reason you people have to hit the streets. Tinubu has impoverished u people the more and from statistics of June 2023 to July 2024 more than one hundred thousand Northerners have died as a result of hardship and hunger imposed on your region by Tinubu. My dear Northerners I urge u all to rise and protest. This is the only opportunity u have to get it right.

Last I confirmed somewhere in the north was 7k for a big tuber. Zwooks: First, you've forgotten how many villagers were killed by suspected Fulani herdsmen in Benue state - mainly yam farmers. Yam supply has greatly reduced. Then you forgot how many farmers in northern Nigeria have to pay bandits millions of naira before planting and harvesting. Cost of yam (food) production in those places are in all-time high. You also forgot the sudden rise in food transportation costs because of fuel subsidy removal. Now you forget that those farmers would also buy other stuff from the same markets as other people, where inflation has increased all prices. Won't they survive?? If you're indeed a farmer, you would know these things. 52 Likes 7 Shares |
