Nigerian man in UK showcases half tuber of yam he bought at N4k

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a UK-based Nigerian had flaunted a half tuber of yam sold to him at N4k.

The man held out the half tuber picked from a bowl and lamented that it cost 5 pounds, an equivalence of N4000 in the official rate.

He went ahead to say in the video that Nigeria is a good country. He was trying to say that yams are cheaper in Nigeria as against the UK. His assertion, however, did not go down well with some people who said he also receives good pay in the UK.
