Is Ripe Plantain getting more expensive?

Which unit is Ripe Plantain sold in?
Markets report Ripe Plantain in 5 6 pieces, bunch (16 25 pieces).

Compare like with like, and check the unit before assuming one market is cheaper than another.
All figures are medians of prices recorded in Nigerian markets, published in Naira.
