Wrong comparison.
N3,980 of 1982 value is not d same as that of today.
Infact value for value N3980 then is almost N1m-N1.5m today.

Perhaps we should have used our wealth to build up industry rather consumption.
Looking back , that was not a great time .
It was a time of collosal waste of opportunity.
While we were busy consuming , South Korea was sending tens of thousands of nurses and doctors to Europe to help generate the forex for their industrial revolution. They had produced so many doctors and nurses from their educational system that they had no choice.

You are so on point, African states are built on the mindset of consumption rather than production, it got so hard in Nigeria that we can't even refine our oil.

We got it all wrong from the beginning.

Plus the monster called corruption that has infested every facet of our national life, can we ever get it right as a nation, l doubt, certainly not in this current generation of crooks both military & politicians who have sold the common wealth of Nigeria and Nigeria has become a laughing stock among the comity of nations, kill corruption and see how other indices will fall into place, as at 1982 most of the leaders we have then stole so much that their wealth keeps appreciating till date, according to Keneking useless politicians grin grin

Subscription money

Though it will be very hard to gather that kind of money at that particular time, cos I imagine what the person that earn #150 monthly will go through before buying this kind of car.
Averagely, teachers earned about 400 monthly. More senior teachers earned up to 800 monthly.
