People Least Feeling Nigeria's Harsh Economy by djyoungmoney(m): 8:34pm On Aug 08, 2016
We all know things are not alright with the economy of the country as of now but in spite of this hard times,there still some set of people who are not really feeling the heat of the harsh economy.see the list after the cut .

Internet Fraudsters
Well they actually deserve to be top of the list because I don’t even think they are feeling the harsh economy one bit. They get paid in dollar and other foreign currencies which are pretty much stronger than the Naira in hundred places so you can imagine how much they make right now . Buying whatever they wish to buy in the country isn’t an issue. No wonder night Club owners, bar owners are not complaining because these boys are capable on of buying the whole bar in one night and even buy the most expensive cars in town.

Bar /Night Club Owners
Certainly the harsh economy will make various organisations lay its staff off and this is even happening in Banks, Oil companies and the rest. As Nigerians are known, they always believe Alcohol is a solution to a lot of things and this will encourage someone who just lost his job drink to stupor just to ‘’Erase’’ the bad memory or Forget about the pain of losing his /her job. As mention earlier internet fraudsters who are at the advantage of the dollar to the naira are always ready to party and buy as much drinks as possible.

Fake Religious Clerics
Businesses are crashing, organisations are laying people off, definitely there will be a lot of panicking and worries the next thing is to seeking spiritual help from an Alfa, Pastor etc to pray or help you out so they don’t lay you off from work or your business wont collapse .Well am sure we all know these people don’t pray for free , there will always be a vision they will see about you that will enable them source money from you, they will have somethings to purchase to help you ‘’Beg’’ God too .In desperation, the cost of praying, averting that fake vision they claim to have seen and buying Goat from the market wouldn’t even matter to you as long as they will help you talk to God and your job or business goes on fine. Why not just talk to God yourself.

Bakery owners
After Garri the next food that people survive on is bread. There is hardly a Nigerian home where they will tell you they don’t eat bread. Even food vendors the likes of the ‘’Ewa agoyin’’ sellers and the rest make bread a very important part of their daily sales. Well no matter the cost of flour and other things involved in baking the Bread, Bakery owners will break even at worse even if they don’t make profit.


Police officers
A man who just lost his job or his business isn’t going on well would be very frustrated and once you are frustrated you get provoked at the slightest opportunity which can result in fights and public disturbance. Well the police is always your friend they will help you settle the issue at the station and am sure you know they don’t settle issues for free .Many people will get drunk as a result of losing their jobs or their businesses not going well and stupidly they will still drive drunk and eventually get involved in an accident which will involve the police impounding their vehicles and remember your vehicle or motorcycle won’t be kept at the police station for free you will pay to bail it.

Psychiatric hospitals

Over thinking and other result of the harsh economy can lead to serious depression and over thinking which can cause mental issues. Am sure you wouldn’t keep someone who is mad at home with you. It’s the psychiatric hospitals that will take care of such people and yes it’s not free of charge to take care of a mentally disturbed person.

feel free to add yours
