Villa12:
in US they give free food to those who chose not to work as there are jobs over there. In Nigeria your leaders mission is to improvished the people which obviously they have achieved, then they throw handouts at them

omoredia:
Better for them. But i prefer a system where my handwork will count and not giving me handouts. My dignity is important.

Bitterkolatea4:
seems you dont even understand the news, this is no handout, these people are buying food with their own money just at about 15 percent subsidized rate.

seborrhic:

How in God's name is this a handout?
Lagos State buys goods wholesale direct from farmers or manufacturers.Instead of the price being say 2000 in the free market,they sell 1700 or 1600.So how is it a handout which you pay for.
Remember,the state will bear the cost of transport from the company,won't pay omoonile on the road and won't pay market levy,some of the cost that are added by the ordinary seller to get at 2000.
So how again is this a fu cking handout.
Some of you are really disgusting.

Biodun556:


Which state are you from let me check something

NorthernAgender:
No lagosians wouldn't understand that simple sentence you can't dictate to the owner .

Zooposki:
She looks dissatisfied. I wish I could give her a big hug.

chigo32:
Nigeria is a zoo country, look at how they turn its citizens to poverty level. Boast d economy because Nigeria citizens are hand working.

Didijiji:
AUSTERITY MEASURES

The last the military rule did this was in 1982

APC IS A CURSE TO NIGERIA

Vadese1:
How did we get here. Before now Nigerian were going their normal business before the drug lord call Tinubu came to scatter every thing in the country. Even as bad as the man from daura called buhari, despite his shot coming for the right years he ruled, Nigeria's never line up to beg and look for cheap food until this old drug lord took over. We all most rise to save this country if not now, but in the next election by voting a competent person. We most rise above tribal sentiment because hungry doesn't have any special consideration for any tribe.

LibertyRep:


The name 'Ounje Eko'.
In the past, Lagos, being a mini Nigeria would most likely have used a more cosmopolitan name for the initiative. Hence my comment.

jidowu84:
is this woman a lagosian? what is she doing in lagos? she better go back to ebonyi where she belong

Villa12:
Your leaders mission is to improvished the people which obviously they had achieved. Abi how many household can boast of 3 square meal daily under Tinubu government? Were Nigerians this improvished under Jonathan, yaradua and even Buhari government? It is a mission accomplished by your useless leaders. Then the next is to throw food at them like almajiri at the IDP camp.

Shikena:
There was no military rule in the 1984s

Glimpsetv:
They should please be very careful this time

This must not repeat itself🙏

HUMANIIST:
Honestly, we have terrible and shameless leaders in Nigeria, sometimes I'm ashamed to be called a Nigerian.

seborrhic:

All these is besides the point because your rebuttal is based on the assumption that I must be a Tinubu supporter.
Every reasonable person knows Tinubu is a disaster but my own argument is based on the fact the person I quoted said this program is a handout.Clearly it's not because it's neither free goods or is the discount even that great,25%.
People seem to forget that even in the most capitalist Nation on earth,the US,there are still food banks,social security guaranteed income for ALL American citizens not working and even this same discounted food markets for those that don't mind or are low on cash for varying reasons or need to save cash on food to meet up with other expenses.
This is because they understand food is the primary sustainer of life and if you eat,you can save or totally forgot other expenses on health,transport,travel or leisure

kokomilala:
@LibertyRe, you need to wake up and smell the coffee. After the sickening attitude of Igbos against Yoruba people in their own land, Lagos, during the last general elections, things are beginning to change. Ounje Eko is a timeless reminder that Lagos is Yoruba land. If this offends your sensibilities, you can simply refuse to buy from such subsidised market, or you might just leave Lagos.

Things are no longer the same!!!
