We all know if they get any money from the removal of subsidy, it won't go into any development, it's just to enrich politicians.
They are just frustrating people (Nigerians) for no geniue reason.

■ You dey read at all? The changes are for the betterment of the country not just the section of the country that is poor. It is left to the poor to choose whether rise or die at this point. Nigeria cannot and should not keep lagging all for the sake of the poor. The poor need to step up.

2. Well, if people continue to live as they did before now... multiplying like rats, and living foolishly--- of course suffering will remain their lot. However, if people decide to finally cut coats according to their size --- commonsense --- then their is hope. I am not against the poor but the country was not built only for them and the poor need to help themselves at this point.

DREAMHOMES6970:


The same poor voted in APC again for 5k or 10k after what Buhari did to them. They should continue to suffer. Ten years ago before APC I could do so much with 100k or 200k. But now 1million seems useless. The question is how many people even have upto 500k now.

pansophist:
If this subsidy removal will reduce the birth rate of Nigeria, then it served it's purposes. I mean, how can our population tripled in just sixty years? Don't mind them. You can look at other countries in West Africa, their population is even not up to nigerian population. Maybe other west African countries don't like pu---y like nigerians

Funny as it is, no body will die out of hunger

The poor are already used to hard times and they already know how to survive this harsh condition because they are floating already since they don't have a standard

The rich suffers it more because they already have a standard and are finding it difficult to fall below standard because of class and position in the society

So in all, we must limit the number of children to two or three no matter our income

Then we can adjust in other things that bother on family

In my own case and for the past 10yrs now I and my hubby have cut down our expenses through combine cooperations

I have three children so I already prepared for it

For going to about two months now, I don't drive my car again to work but just to church

I don't go visiting people anyhow, we can chat or call unless when needed

I don't run Gen again at night, once we take dinner by 6/7pm, you are free to go to bed and if it must be on, just 1hr and you do whatever you need it for immediately

I regulates electricity at home because of prepaid meter and my husband makes sure we don't on unnecessary lights

I cook and store in the freezer to avoid going to the market all the time

I eat twice a day to save cost

I stopped watching tiktok because of wasting of my data

I un-installed candy crush because it sucks my data

Honestly, I have to cut down on so many things and still willing to cut down or more

With the above, I am not really feeling the harsh economy though because I have already cut down my cost of running my family during Jonathan's regime and am use to it before this shege Promax regime

The bottom line is that we must help ourselves

NVera:
Good day everyone.
With the unbelievable increments in almost everything in Nigeria, how does the poor survive?

Most people were complaining when petrol was #200plus, now it is #600plus.

A bag of rice can barely be purchased by the average family, some people are being paid peanuts as salaries, they are barely surviving.

With hope they keep believing things will be better, but the price of basic things keeps skyrocketing as if armed men are chasing them.

How do people earning #20,000, #30,000 per month survive? Some families with 3 to 4 kids, how will they survive?

The cost of daily transport alone is killing, do our leaders ever consider those living below par, how they survive?

The poor are getting poorer, everyone is complaining, people are frustrated, most people can barely see what to eat.

The poor among us, what should they do? Because with all this it's just like they are saying the poor should go and die.

Kobojunkie:
The country has been trading national progress for the sake of the poor for decades now and what has been the response from the poor in that time? To breed and multiply like rats. The population of Nigeria is expected to Ballon to over about 370 million in the next 25 years if current trend continues. Before the removal of subsides , the situation was already bad for the poor. Do you think it is going to get better 25 years from now if no drastic changes are made to correct the many problems in the country now?

2. The poor need to change. And adversity typically presents the best opportunity for the change needed.

Shut up!!! You will always defend stupid policies just for peanuts thrown at you. Most of you young people in Africa reason with your feet.

Will blame population for low development. We’re not even as many as other countries that are well developed. Standard of living is too low, and there’s no tangible growth or development done by the government. If there’s safety/security, do you know that sports when properly promoted by the government can give us millions of employment?

Help one another between berating government and doing the Opposing & Opposition Government stuff. Nothing stops the wealthier individuals or moderately okay elements in Nigeria society opening Free Meals Centers. In Jamaica, wealthy people used to run places where the very poorest could go and eat. These places served free and pay-what-you can meals once a day. People can donate food to the place or help out by cleaning, serving, washing plats and street children etc.

I don't want to credit Jamaica alone, my mum used to do something like this but small scale. I grew up wanting to establish permanent free food places on an industrial scale all over Nigeria with my name as the brand.

you can imagine a poor man with two wives and 10 kids living in a room and parlour! And you are expecting nigeria to change? It's either one to japa or stay and cut your coats to your size
