1000 Jean...100 meal ....Not in Naija anymore

You dey mind the OP

No better place than home

Osun people still eat a plate of food for that amount!

Afam4eva:

I think the OP is referring to taxis that pick several passengers at the same time and he compared it with the one that picks a single person in the states.

I also never knew people still buy a full meal for 100 naira.

That apartment one na mistake o.
Which kain 1 bedroom? Face me I face you or self contained? Self contain 1 bedroom fit reach 15k for Lagos o. And no face me I face u for America o unless na u build am when live like that. 1 bedoom for yankee for $900 go mean say complete apartment with bathroom, sitting room, kitchen and correct NEPA plus water corporation.

And N100 for meal. I just eat 2 wrap of amala with meat for N300 for Iya Kan Alamala place o. My guy own na N600. And this na buka o-no be resturant.

why don't you compare the purchasing powers? 70% live on less than $2/day in Nigeria.

never ending argument I refuse to fall for the bait its obvious the stats are not correct both for naija and us

pls op drop link of where u got ur info

I always tell people, if you have a good income and family, the best place to live is NIgeria. MOre oppurtunities are in the US but if you have a good opportunity in Nigeria, you are better off.

So we shouldn't go to obodo ndi ocha because things are expensive there?

Rubbish! We will go there, make money, buy those things in Nigeria and bring it over to the Obodo ndiocha.


Oh, I forgot! We will buy up their lands and make them tenants!

it is because of greedy looters like u that oba akiolu threatened to submerge the entire NdiIgbo into the Lagos Lagoon

What if our naira is 1naira to 1$ ?

that's if am working in naija knowing that my 60k naira salary is equivalent to 60k $ .

The comparism is between benue and america

Nna....I'm not sure whether you stay in gwom, Potiskum, or zambisa before you left naija....come home let me show you were food goes for7k and clearing cost could buy you a car in U.S.

Your comparison is totally flawed, are you sure you live in the states or you are quoting some figures from a blogger?

Get your facts right hommie!!!

This is what you get when they devalue your currency. They take all your crude oil, pay you in dollars and the money becomes useless when you convert it to your currency. The effects reflect on every other commodities.

The irregularities in the Brent Woods monetary system favors the advanced countries at the detriment of the poor nations richly endowed with natural resources.

Hmmmmmm.
So what are you trying to say even though some of your comparative analysis are wrong.
.

mikron:
in lagos u can get a bread for N50 and ewa agoyin (mashed beans commonly cooked by the togolese and Beninoise women) for N50. so yes the op is right

Is that good food?food that they have spit and finish inside.we mean better food with big meat.and will one spoon which is 50naira belle full you?won't you add plantain meat etc

Lordave:
So we shouldn't go to obodo ndi ocha because things are expensive there?

Rubbish! We will go there, make money, buy those things in Nigeria and bring it over to the Obodo ndiocha.


Oh, I forgot! We will buy up their lands and make them tenants!

lmaoo how about buying the whole of America?

the average house located in a not so expensive state when converted to Naira is around 50,000,000...for this amount you would get yourself a nice structure in Nigeria.
people rarely build new houses from ground up, only the super rich could afford to, the cost of buying a land will first run you down, to add property tax, insurance, and utilities. you go fear!

OP is partially right. The comparison is between people or workers of the same class and category in both countries. Like a cleaner in the US and a cleaner in Nigeria or a bus conductor / Agbero in both countries.

In most places in Lagos, especially motor parks, the average bus conductor can get a meal for N100 complete with meat.
One room accommodation are certainly available in Lagos for N4000 a month. Even less than that. And there are Taxis in which you will pay about N100 per trip. Of course you will have to share it with 4 other people.

Housing is definitely cheaper in Nigeria than in the US. We are not talking quality of the houses here, but just roof over your head.

well the salary difference explains it all

not everywhere is N100 in abuja. for instance from area 1 garki to berger through the express is N50. garki to garki 2 is also N50. many other places within abuja is N50. except u re taking a drop (chatter) then be prepared to pay from N300-N400 within town. the OP is in order

in osunstate #100 meal is too much. U won't finish it

Abeg no need to b continue. Dnt no y u pple like to discourage potential travellers. Abeg if u can't afford to stay in dat gademm country hit d next available flight n come back to ya stupid no electricty country whre government doesn't respect its citizen.

How dem take discourage u. He only told you what is obtainable (which is not entirely accurate). The basic salary balances the cost of living. Knowledge is power, remember?
