I don't know if it's everywhere, or just this River State that the price of groceries is this high. How's it in your place?

go plant it yasef now.
You una wahala no allow mallam truck onions to ya side.

Bought this one #200 now in my street...
It's becoming something else!!!

I'm just trying to imagine you cooking it and sb says I don't eat onions.

Wow! You're lucky. In my part of Rivers state (private), if you see that for 500, you'll rush it. The influence of oil companies and oil workers here have made everything expensive.

Anyway, we're not complaining. It's an opportunity for smart businessmen and women to travel to the North to get goods and come sell over here to make 1000% profit. Every damn thing is expensive here — including air to breathe. To me, it's an advantage.

We have no choice. One of that is #200 and some are even smaller.

I normally buy one custard rubber, but it was no where to be found.

I stayed for 3 days without onions then I had to stop at Igwurutali market on my way to work yesterday and buy!

Hambivert:
Haba!

OP, abeg if this is true you were sparogatively cheated on beyond measure!

WahrisDis

I rather not cook with Onions than to buy that for #500. This isn't about poverty or being broke.

See the one I bought for N100, here in Lagos.

Where in Rivers state ? I won't say you are lying but thats not true. I'm in Port Harcourt and onion is very cheap here.

I rather say you were cheated. Next time allow your wife to go to the market

This is the effect of destructions.
Here in the north we now have surplus of commodities and is selling at cheaper rate

ever since the riots and looting last thursday, no truck has entered rivers state, this is just a taste of what you will experience if the country breaks up.

There will be no onions, beans and tomatoes in the south, infact no agric produce at all.

The southerners especialy those in the niger delta will be worst hit, they dont farm and their youths are very lazy.

mariahAngel:


This is an exaggeration.

I don't believe it for one second.

A kilo of carrot in ph is now 3k!!! Formally #500.
Enter mkt and see for yourself!!!

all this one na fifty naira for my place

akure1stson:


if that onion can cost 250 in the north, then it can b sold at 500 naira in the ph

Exactly.
A tuber of yam sold for 100naira in Benue state is sold for 500 in neighboring Enugu state.
Courtesy of numerous police and army checkpoints.

pozehnani:
Serious!
In Lag, the two big ones are #50 each while the 2 small ones are #50 making it #150 for all.

This is getting out of hand.

Where in Lag? I bought 3 tiny balls of tomato for N200 just recently in an open market (e pain me). On the same day someone tried to sell half derica of tin tomato for N700 but I refused to be foolish, I tried another seller and got it cheaper (N500). No seller in an open market has monopolistic privileges, always remember this.

Amotolongbo:
where is the receipt?

Yeah! Or I don't bilivit

Hunger is coming... Thank God am not there to within all These... Thunder fire those Ediots that voted for change... I warned them... I bolted when I can oooo.. please block all the borders unah never started

Lolz.
More southerners will just go into farming and the gap will be bridged in less than 3yrs.
The woman in my village doesn't eat anything from the north.
Local goat,local cow,hen,bush meat etc.
Everybody grows his own tomato and a little extra to sell,only those in townships buy tomatoes from the north and production could be stepped up in d event of separation.
The most eaten food in the south is garri,yam and rice which are all grown locally.

In my area for now. Don't know what it will be like the next time I go.

Waaaat? 700 for tin tomatoes? Crazy!
Well.. a sachet now sells for 150. So I'm not really shocked. Still, errrmm.. huh! This just crazy. I wanna believe it's because of the ongoing crises stemmed from the protest. many traders can't go to the market now especially as I heard this early morning that Mile12 market was under fire with hoodlums shooting and looting stores and shops. So, traders are making do with the little they had before the whole brouhaha.

Hopefully by next week or before Xmas, things will have return back to normal. Otherwise, no stew for Christmas. Peppersoup all the way.

Just thank God that you are able to get it, a time will come when you would go out with your money looking for what to buy, but you may eventually not see it

Its even more expensive around oilmill.
Its as a result of the clash between the Hausas and ’IPOB’

Omihanifa:

Bros,
What are you saying nah,
I will buy those onions for 100 here in the north.

Haiiiiiu na to venture into onion biz be that ooo

In my place this one is not up to #50 ooo

Benblaq:

The whole of this is 50naira in the North..

Ehen!

Now, that explains it!
Thanks jare

Here in Enugu:
Those 3pcs of equal size is N20 each. 3 of them is N50.
That smallest one should be the jara.
That big ball can go for N50/ball.

Well, you guys should enjoy your oil money. Sellers there sees everyone as a staff of Oil Company.
When I was in PH, what I do was to come to Aba buy things I want and take them to PH.
You will see someone selling unripened pawpaw that was forced to ripe with hot water and she will tell u it is N500. Yet the fruit will have no palatable taste.

See the reason why tomato paste went up
