The value of the naira caused them to jack up prices like that, let me just give a brief explanation:

A trader used to sell live chicken at 3k, before his profit was say 1k which means everything that costed him to raise the chicken was 2k, now hyper inflation happened and everything that costs him to raise the same chicken is now 20k.

How much do you think he will add to get the same value of profit he was making before to match the purchasing power of other goods and the services in the same hyperinflated economy?

The answer is 10k, so you see why it is not entirely their fault, the purchasing power of the naira has dropped...
Your explanation is a textbook one which is irrelevant and meaningless in the Nigerian context. Water leaf vegetable was sold at 20 naira per portion before subsidy removal,it's now 100 naira. Did God remove the subsidy on the rain or what.Before you say transportation,ask yourself if the transportation cost is for a tiny portion or for the whole merchandise. The same applies to many goods and services.
I was at justrite supermarket
and and saw a small tin of nescafe coffee made by Nestle in Nigeria for over 5k, beside it is a similar sized coffee tin made in India for 1250 naira despite the high exchange rate and freight costs. Is that not magic.
Nigerians are responsible for more than half of their problems

So no other president's has ever brought price shocks to Nigeria since 1960?
I can't think of any Nigerian president incompetent enough to do something of this magnitude.
Many of the presidents had price control and marketing boards but tinubu is very inept and made no attempt to stabilize prices. He even lost when he removed the oil subsidy, oil is priced in dollars and was 700 when subsidy was removed. It then shot up to 1500 and he ended up owing nnpc trillions of naira.
The man is an unmitigated disaster but Nigerian traders exacerbated the problem.

So they just started having greed, lack of empathy and wickedness after Tinubu was sworn in abi then greed , lack of empathy and wickedness left them after Yaradua was sworn in 2007 abi ?

Keep deceiving yourself
Tinubu gave them an excuse to bring out their worst character.
Tinubus so called reforms brought price shocks which the traders exploited not knowing that it would not benefit anybody in the long run

Tope's first class degree needs questioning. He forget the law of supply and demand. Nobody is hiking price, but the man that took fuel from N156 to N850 in a day with subsidy is gone. grin grin grin grin grin
Nigerias own case has nothing to do with supply and demand but price fixing, associations rules, wickedness blackmail and economic illiteracy.
Tinubu is a terrible leader but Nigerians dug a pit of despair for themselves with their greed and lack of empathy.

Of all the problems we have in Nigeria like crippling corruption, selfishness, kidnapping, banditry,419 , meaningless prayers, facetious love of God, the o.p decided to pursue a non issue with his prurient observations. I weep for Nigeria.
Babalegba(m): 2:19pm On May 25
I'm yoruba but tinubu is the worst president Nigeria has ever had to endure. He might be divine punishment for all those mindless needless insulting prayers that Nigerians offer all the time.
All those things listed are not really achievements. Tinubu has not solved any of Nigeria s problems, only building castles in the air with a proposed trillion dollars economy.
He is fooling people,debt is only bad when the money is not used judiciously. Countries use debt to prosper and advance. Dangote has more debts than me but he is richer. Nigerians should use their brain. They are being mugged.

Dangote gaining control is dangerous
Once he gains control and pushes everybody else out of business...

He is going to start dealing with the buyers
Not really. If Dangote raise prices then it becomes economical viable to import then the petrol importers who are actually selfish and unpatriotic will seize the chance.

You didn't answer my question.
I thought I did. I got the soil from my inlaws farm. Any fertile soil will do and you could always add manure
Babalegba(m): 4:12pm On May 18
Love800:
Where did you get sand from?
The sand used is critical. You need very fertile soil but you can also use manure to enrich the soil. If poor soil is used, the harvest will be impacted negatively.

Did you watch the video?

Did you see the images including Moorish statues?

Did you see the Europeans painting their faces black in their festivals celebrating the Moors?

How can you be looking at black people and saying they are not blacks?

Your colonial-imposed low self esteem has turned your head upside down to the point you cannot recognise your skin colour when you see it in a non-subservient position to “white people”.

It’s so tragic.
Anybody can make a video and put whatever content he likes in it. I've studied the Moor and Carthagian civilizations long ago and they did not have negroid features.
The past is gone but greatness can be achieved in the present and the future but not with the current mindset of black people.

Moors were not really negroes though. They were more like the Carthagians,an example would be Hannibal the Carthagian general.
They were more north African or Tuareg in appearance.

What is beetroot?
Beetroot is a root vegetable that is quite commonly eaten abroad but almost unknown here.
It is one of the few plants that gives noticeable results within two weeks, lower blood pressure, increased stamina and faster recovery. It is quite expensive here so I tried to grow it without much luck. I think people living in Jos would have better luck.

Let me get you clearly please, because I'm trying to form a hypothesis.

The ones you planted because they started growing out, where they big in size and you planted them whole?

Where they small in size and you planted them whole?

Where they big in size and you cut off some for consumption and planted the shooting size?

Thanks.

Also from your reply, one can assume that the bigger the container, the larger the harvested yam.

Thanks again.
I cut off the bit that was growing out making sure that there was a little bit of yam left in it. I would say I planted about one twelfth to one fifteenth of the yam so they weren't big at all.
The ones in the bigger sack did much better.
Pls note that the soil you use is crucial and will determine the level of success you get. If the soil is not rich then you will need manure

Did you use yam setts or whole yams?

I want to try yam sett in sacks.
The yams I bought to eat were already growing,I simply cooked the yam a and planted the bits that were growing. I used Dangote cement bags and some larger sacks. The ones in the larger sacks grew much bigger but the Dangote ones also did well.

I tried this sack farming last year in my compound and I regretted all my hardwork and money.
I also tried it and planted yams and beetroot. The yams came out really well, quite big but the beetroot was a total waste of time and effort.
Looks like success is determined by the choice of crops.

Lol, the o.p is desperate to find a tinubu achievement. Fact is there is none.
Tinubu is the worst leader Nigerians has ever had to endure. Economy in ruins, Nigerians starving, insecurity and banditry rampant, healthcare comatose. A common goat would make a better leader

You use your own people as human shields and then cry "war crimes" when things go bad?
Maybe don't become a Hezbollah terrorist operative.

There’s a special kind of joy in watching cowards who hide behind civilians finally get what’s coming to them. Just like Sinwar and Nasrallah. 😄
Lol. Hamas and Hezbollah are anything but cowards. I'm Christian but cannot evil. To understand any situation,you have to study the genesis of it. The Israelis are wrong. A man deserves to be treated decently and with dignity,anything else and reactions start manifesting.

Intelligent people know that the Mossad fools should be jailed for violating the rules of war.
When you bomb pagers anything can happen and innocents die, a driver, pilot and people like that would lose control and innocent people would die.
It was that stunt that made me to turn my back against Israel. They are not good people at all.

please i am looking to buy Sofa on Aliexpress is there anyone that can help me on how to go about it and get it to naija ?
Do you actually mean a real sofa, or is it a slang for something else.Lol.
If you mean real sofa chairs, there are plenty on AliExpress with postage included. You pay 200 dollars for sofa and 1200 for transportation. Do factor in custom duty as well as I'm sure no custom officer would see the sofa and not bring out his pen for calculations.
On the other hand you can take a picture of the sofa to a competent furniture maker and tell him to replicate it for for about 800k.

The sad fact is that tinubus trumpeted trillion dollars economy has proven to be a mirage. With the ways that things are going we'll be lucky to have a two hundred billion dollars economy.

A new report has thrown light on what Nigerians have long suspected,that Nigeria under Tinubu has become a pauper economy.
https://gazettengr.com/nigeria-under-tinubu-has-highest-number-of-extremely-poor-people-globally-world-bank/

Nigerians have undergone pauperisation while the harbingers of misery continue to live large gallivanting across continents at the expense of the broken Nigerian masses

Tinubu is the worst disaster Nigeria has ever encountered. The bad thing is that he wants a second term to inflict more pains on Nigerians and build roads for ghosts of Nigerians who died of hunger and suffering.

I don't understand why the man is being honored. He had the mandate to govern Nigeria but failed and that made people to vote for buhari who also failed.
Failure is being rewarded here. The money he borrowed to fight the insurgency was shared among themselves. Nigerians are still paying the price.

Next tomorrow will make it exactly a month since my package arrived Nigeria but with no further movement/updates. Guys, what should be the next thing for me to do? What is the fate of my package? It's just a tiny tube and fitting for my hearing aids worth less than N5k. I've purchased same product from same store sometime last year without issues.
Looks like a nipost package. No real need to worry,just give it two more weeks. They do deliver but mostly late
