A visit to Orie Ihitte Market | Southeast Nigeria
I really love the idea of @dswigle on #MarketFriday aimed at showcasing not just Markets alone but also Cultures of people across the World.
Normally, I won't have thought of an idea like this so it is definitely worth commending the efforts put in place to establish this community.
Earlier today, I visited a Market in my community though still waxing in size and populace of people and produce.
Crop products here are normally obtained from Farms of the Traders.
Onion crops can be seen displayed on the floor for sale
The bigger ones go for N200 ($0.54) while the smaller ones go for N100 ($0.27).
These are some other food crops too for display
The white crops are Beans in Bowels. Sold in paint rubbers for N1000 ($2.74).
I had a somewhat rough day navigating to the Market but I am happy I got my purchase at quite an affordable rate...
Stress is written all over my face after a hectic day from the Market.
Lastly, Governments of most Southeastern States are not doing well in terms of Road network and viral infrastructures
This is what the Road to the market looked like...
Coupled with torrential downpours daily, it gets worse by the day.

Thank you so much
I appreciate you
I am not sure I would be able to shop with the roads that bad! It would be mud up to my knees in some places. Coupled with the torrential downpours? Yikes! I would be in trouble!
Even though it is much smaller in quantity than you are used to, if they are carrying what you need right now, it is far better than having to go far away to obtain a few things.
