Episode 14 — Why Food is Expensive in Nigeria

Open on YouTube ↗

In this video, I break down the hidden drivers behind Nigeria’s rising food prices beyond just inflation or global trends. From insecurity in farming regions to poor transportation networks, from government policy gaps to the overlooked impact of middlemen and food waste, this is a no-fluff, deeply thought-out analysis of why food costs keep soaring in our markets.

I also explore how climate change, lack of cold chain infrastructure, weak investment in local agriculture, and exchange rate volatility all converge to make the average Nigerian struggle to afford basic meals.

🎯 Whether you're a policymaker, a student, a farmer, or a concerned citizen, this video gives you a clearer picture of the structural and systemic factors we must confront if we truly want to make food affordable in Nigeria.
