A Nigerian father who chose to feed his 5-month-old son the traditional Nigerian dish “Eba,” made from cassava, bemoaned the outrageous rise in the price of baby food.
The father confessed his anguish in a video that has gone viral online by revealing that the prices of well-known infant food brands Cerelac and SME Gold have soared to N12,000 and N25,000, respectively.
Sharing the seven cans of SME gold and the fourteen tins of Cerelac that his little son has already consumed, he joked that he will have to start giving his child Eba morsels since he is running out of money for food.
He said, in part, “As from tomorrow, you go start to eat eba”.
