What Is The Next Line Of Action? Advice The Govt On What To Do#economy Recession by winnah(f): 11:33pm On Sep 04, 2016 |
[left][/left] What is the next line of action? Economy recession, we are already in. What part should we play as a patriotic citizen? And What do you thing the government should do in other to elevate us from this chaos. This is my own take; I believe in due time, things will get better. If the country fails, it's not only the Mr president that it will affect the most rather. it will affect every body(we all). Irrespective of the fact that am not happy with the way things are going, I still believe that sooner or later all this will make us stronger. but instead of us to criticise only, let's also be constructive in are criticism. Before China could be at its position today, they all surfer same fate that we are facing, Japan faces the same thing, south korea surfers the same fate. Don't also forget that some other countries are also going through the same problem that we are facing as a result of a fall or downward change in oil price. This isn't about party. Let's drop party sentiment and say the truth. Cause even if it was pdp they'll do nothing. America is great today, it's not because of the government, but the collective effort of the citizen. America is the highest indebted nation in the world and you barely hear them talk about it and if so, why are we selling our problem out to the world. For nigeria to succeed, it has to be a collective responsibility of you and I. My prof; would say that 'necessity is the mother of invention' am glad that we are going through this economy recession now because it has clearly opened our eyes. Thus the country was so so much depending on oil and neglecting other sector. At least it has bring back our tension to the drawing board. But at this juncture I have to end here but for the main time I have this for you. RECESSION GALORE! WE ARE IN ALREADY...SO, LEARN HOW TO MANAGE TILL WE GET OUT Here are some things to cut down on in order to make it out of this recession financially sane. *Generator usage* It’s bad enough the economy is crumbling faster than a cookie but how many Nigerians can recall a lengthy spell of uninterrupted power supply. Our standby household generators have for years, been doing what the government cannot do for us. Now that the situation is getting dire, generator usage should be restricted to specific hours and to take care of necessities. Comfort can wait till recession is over and we are out of troubled waters. *Eating out* Anyone who actually cooks will know that restaurants serve overpriced, often unsatisfying food. So instead of taking your hard earned money to pay for ‘fancy’ food, go to the market, buy raw food and head to the kitchen. You’ll save so much money. *Driving walkable distances* The cost of fuel is higher than it has ever been in Nigeria’s history, so why not kill two birds with one stone while going for short errands. Take a walk or go for a run while running your errand. Your body and pockets will thank you. *Bulk buying of groceries* Constant grocery shopping can be such a chore so we tend to buy in bulk. However, a disadvantage of bulk buying is that some goods may expire or spoil before you get around to using them, hence cut your grocery shopping list down to necessities. Get what you need and not what you think you will need. *New clothes and shoes* Your old clothes are perfectly fine! Oh you think people have noticed you’ve had that shirt for a while? Frankly, it’s nobody’s business. As long as your clothes are not obviously tattered, there is no use going cloth shopping every week to impress people and depress your bank account. *Hanging out* We all love spending quality time with friends and family but instead of going someplace where you’ll spend more than you budgeted for (more often than not), invite them to your house and plan activities everyone can participate in. You’ll create a stronger bond and more lasting activities while saving money. *Vacations abroad* Also known as “the king of excesses”, vacationing abroad is officially a luxury at this point in time. Why go and spend your hard earned ‘naira’ in a foreign country contributing to the growth of their economy while leaving yours in the backseat. Stay at home! *DSTV subscription* You don’t need to pay for all the channels. It’s not a competition. You hardly ever watch more than 15 of the channels on the premium package, so why the bother? The smallest bouquet has news channels for the grown-ups and cartoons for the kids. *Water as opposed to juice and sodas* Some people think there is an award for living lavish. News flash: there isn’t. Most of these processed drinks you desire to gulp down your throat with every meal are not even good for your health and they definitely cost more than water. Drink water, you’ll live longer. *Unnecessary phone calls* Restrict your airtime to calls with purpose (work, business). There’s no need to ask your friend what he/she is eating or staying on a call for an hour discussing what nail polish color to wear to an event. |
