i was talking with a lady who had just returned from a trip
to
her village
in Anambra State, Nigeria.

according to her
she had been shocked to find that

the prices of foodstuffs
like

GARRI
RICE
BEANS
ETC

were THE SAME

with

the prices of these foodstuff items

in

the
COMMERCIAL COSMOPOLITAN CITY
in
SOUTH-WEST(ERN) NIGERIA
( Lagos, Yoruba-land, Nigeria )
where

she resides as a function of the reality that
she is a top management staff of an international organization that sited
it’s operational offices in Nigeria in that location.



according to her,
this was not the case in the past

and
EEBOE-LAND NIGERIA
historically produced certain food stuff items
within it’s general locality

and as such
these food items
and
any linked derivatives
were always readily available

and
always cheaper in the villages
where the majority of the farm-lands were sited

and
usually generally cheaper in EEBOE-LAND
than in other locations.



according to her,
examples include(d)

CASSAVA
which was grown virtually by every household
in the villages
in their farms

and from which,
for example,
the SOUTHERN? NIGERIA food staple

GARRI

is derived

RICE
which she claimed was historically
produced in huge quantities
in
ABAKILIKI
( pronounced
AH-BA-KAE-LAE-KAE )



YAM
which she claimed was historically
a food staple
in EEBOE-LAND

.. a claim which
perhaps the late celebrated author CHINUA ACHEBE

( .. possibly
the greatest Negroland Africa writer/novelist of all time
– Nobel Prize for Literature
or
No Nobel Prize for Literature .. )

sort of inferred in his celebrated novel
THINGS FALL APART
where he writes about

the wrestler and warrior OKONKWO

and
mentions in a phrase that

“Yam is the King of Crops”

or

something along those lines.
