Beremx:
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?
"Farmers can't access farms" is a chronic Iie.
In Benue where herdsmen àttàck people in the bush, they still go to farm everyday, Benue is the largest yam producer in Nigeria.
U can say farm supplements are expensive leading to high price but farmers can't access farm is a chronic Iie.

EmeeNaka:
They used Fulani to wipe out the agricultural potential of Benue state. Now no one can purchase yam again
Statements like this are made by people who has never been to Benue all their Iives and it usually comes from lgb0s.

Last I confirmed somewhere in the north was 7k for a big tuber.



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.



Be letting them deceive you. I'm with farmers and know all their extornist behaviors you don't know. Continue to fall like mugu

Thieves. Eveyone wants to use their legitimate businesses to dupe people


Yam seedling costs 400 Naira max. So, wgy should yams sell so costly ?

A plit 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



How about the insecurities, farmers putting their lives on the line just to cultivate.

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.
Go farm Lazy Thing, na APC go cultivate tuber of yam for you lazy ungrateful things?

As much as things change, they tend to remain the same, 2017 you were complaining about the price of a tuber of yam, 2024 still on same yam matters.

By the time tinubu will be done with Nigeria only God knows who will remain in this country. Tinubu is determined to send many people to their early graves by hunger and malnutrition. Yet the gullible ones are still talking of his reelection in 2027.
