It shocked me last night as I went to buy garri and was told it's now 600 naira for derica. Now the annoying thing is the garri most of these people have is old stock but they keep increasing the price and now selling times 4 of what they originally bought it. Is that not wickedness? I still bought garri from the same bag @300 and in my presence the woman kept hiking it. When I told her, but you've not exhausted that bag, she said if she goes to the market she'll buy at the new rate that's why... See greedy people?


What of we that buy things at the new rate everyday, are we not human beings?

What's really going on?

We can only cope by planting now

Plant where and how? Where's the space to plant?

The last time I bought garri in Lagos, it was at Oyingbo market December 2017 and I had free kgs to travel with, so I bought 5 buckets (4 litres bucket)each for N450.....for a derica of it to now sell for N600 is CRAZY!

Insecurity has declined farming activities.

It is really sad for many Nigerian families with declining purchasing power.

Even Nigerians in the UK doing minimum wage jobs can buy 4kg of garri with what they earn in an hour.

It is wickedness and stupidity, they will also buy other commodities at the higher prices, some people don't just think at all, we are only killing our naira

They sell old stock at higher price not out of wickedness but because they have to buy the new items at an higher price.

If they sell it N300, how will they be able to stock up their shops with full quantity?

I think that's what is in play.

That same is 900 here Smh...

Wow.. see compound farm 👀👀. If I try this in my compound na me and landlord go kwanta.

I saw where someone used only water, no soil to plant. It looked neat as the plants were hanging from poles. I'm thinking of doing something like that. I don't want a messy kind of farming. Though the guy added some chemicals that served as soil and other nutrients injected into the water.

Abeg let me know when you harvest your pepper o. I like pepper and now the thing don cost.

If you neat, your landlord can’t do no shit. That’s organic farming. I did red pepper, tomatoes and ugu leave.

Ondo State.

Buying is easy in Ekiti State but I think it goes for ₦800 there too

You don't know Lagos landlords. They'll say you want to take over their property. I no fit Biko.

Smh.. we are even worse than the govt. Even things that have spent 7 years in the shop some people will have mind to sell it at the current rate. Too bad.

There's nobody stronger in mind, spirit and body than a newly married Nigerian man.

EreluRoz doesn't eat garri. She eats long grain rice of N 100,000 for 25 kg bag.
