He said that he made over N7, 000 on the eve of Easter.

According to him, “My school fee is N30, 000 per term. Two days before this Easter, I made almost N13, 000. I don’t want my mother to pay my school fees again until I finish my secondary school. My daddy died many years ago.”

“The feed is around N16, 000 per bag,” says a dealer, Nneoma Okike. “The cost of each of my chickens should be around N15, 000 but nobody wants to buy at that cost. I sold all my chickens between N10, 500 and N13, 000. I lost.”
