This page is a viral news repost exposing a farmer who hid cement blocks in cashew bags to inflate weight, sparking a massive discussion that quickly devolved into political commentary about corruption and hypocrisy rather than agricultural trade or farming techniques.
Pain points:
defrauded
“Back in the days during my childhood,we used to hide stones inside copper just to inflate the weight so that we can sell it on a higher price. On one fateful day,we were caught when the buyer decided to untie the copper. Omoh, you need to see how we take fly leave everything for the werey 😂”
“This is why we keep getting the worst of the worst as leaders because we ourselves we are terrible people and hypocrisy will not let us see that.”
“It is called fraud. It is called corruption. It is called dishonesty. It is called many things. But then ask yourself this very important question: Is what the man did worse than that of tinubu's?”
Unclassified: The discussion rapidly shifted from agricultural fraud to general political corruption and national character, with no further agricultural content.
