The celebration is marked with the slaughter of rams to mark the day of Eid.
“You can see what is going here. Look at the market, there are plenty of rams but few buyers. Many sellers are here with their rams and no buyers.
Most sellers were hopeful that in the days leading up to Friday, the day of the sacrifice, more people would buy rams.“For every ram, I bought and transported from Jigawa State, it cost me N1000 naira. I brought 20 rams, I sold nine. Taking the rest back means spending the money I sold the nine rams to transport them back. Instead, I will have no option than to sell them at takeaway prices so I can just go,” said Alkali Sabo.
