With the way farmers were killed this year by bandits and Fulani Herdsmen unchallenged, this was largely expected. I am even more worried about next year.

Insecurity, and bad FG policies in Nigeria, is the cause of all these economical mess...

Buhari has buried Nigerian economy with his bullshit policies. I'm still finding it difficult to believe he's not doing all these intentionally to punish and destroy Nigeria or is he not getting feedbacks on the policies he makes?

It's very like things get more expensive this coming weeks and purchasing power drops even more. Only essential commodities especially food will only see some patronage.

May God have mercy on this country

Lol

It’s only Nigeria that basic laws of economics don’t apply.

How does price rise with a drop in demand It’s only Nigeria that prices never come down…like never in my life, and market forces can do shii . tongue

In our commodity sector, every area is price fixing and monopolistic. U can’t enter that market in Ketu to sell rice and desire to drop your price (irrespective of your cost price), Market union will blast ur ass cry

Imagine a common driving school instructor was summoned to answer query for not increasing his fees after everyone in the local union agreed to hike fees.

Welcome to Nigeria cool

Sometimes people wondered how Zimbabwe currency became worthless. This is exactly how it started. If buhari can continue like for next 30 years the Nigeria currency will be worst like Zimbabwe.

It's a miracle to survive in Nigeria today... Every item in Nigeria now has either doubled or tripled in prices.
Yet we are quite.

A while back,the large crowd i meet when i go to buy on Fridays/Saturdays is alarming from my meat vendor.

I noticed for some months now,no more crowd even on Saturdays.
A lot of persons can no longer afford MEAT.
How we survive in this country and carry on daily is a mystery,living in this country is hardwork.
You are so right. I told someone recently that my purchasing power has reduced. I can barely eat without meat or fish, and I make stew/soup within 3-5 days. Now, I can't remember the last time I ate fish/meat. The sapa no be here o.

SOUTHERNERS, THERE IS NO BENEFIT IN TRIBALISM. I AM YORUBA, YOU ARE IGBO, SHE IS IJAW. THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE. IT DOESN'T CHANGE THE FACT YOU WERE BORN IN 9JA. WE ARE ALL 9JARIANS. LET US CHOOSE 1 LEADER THAT WILL RULE US. IF WE 4GET TRIBALISM, IT COULD BE ONE OF OUR GREATEST ASSET. THE WHITES WOULD LOVE TO A COUNTRY WHERE YOU CAN LEARN MORE THAN 4 LANGUAGES, MORE THAN 3 TRIBES LIVING TOGETHER PEACEFULLY.

P.S I spoke outta frustration

Things are costly, almost everything. I bought a Tecno Spark GO for 46k and gave it out as a gift; i promised my cousin that i will give him the same phone but last week, the phone was 53k, this is just a space of 6weeks.

So, what's happening? There's no alternative to food na... Are people cutting down on intake or what?

Just like Solomon had upon his destiny the covenant of abundance, same way a president has the covenant of hardship upon his life. As perfect as Switzerland economy is, if Mr. President takes over, hardship will manifest in a matter of days. Once he was there and again history repeats itself!

I don't think it's prudent to blame that man alone. Every president we had from 1960 to this day contributed one way to the other to what we are experiencing now.
