Qualifications for SNAP benefits have been relaxed and there is also a proposed stimulus.
https://www.newsweek.com/stimulus-update-payment-offset-gas-prices-1691473

Hasn't happened yet. It's a prospective bill.

And $200 isn't going to do anything.

Even though it is a global problem but other countries are dolling out palliatives to their citizens to help cushion the effects but here the lifeless government is hell bent on killing Nigerians with multiple taxes and obnoxious laws. Buhari is a certified failure simple

Where and where are they giving out money simply because prices are going up?
Pls state each country and the program for that purpose.
You stay in your village and start posting rubbish lies for the shallow low IQ mumus on NL.

Instead of the NL wailing wailers to prove that what the man said is not true, they will just start wailing and crying like dumb lunatics.

What he said is true, if you have prove that they are not then pls let's see them.

Racoon:
Useless people who always rationalise their incompetence.

Angola an oil producing African
country's currency gained 20% last week against the dollar and gaining. They are celebrating.
The Russian rouble lost 40% of its value due to the war in Ukraine and western catastrophic sanctions. Last week the rouble gained over 20% shocking the Americans and Europeans, making them scramble to look for more sanctions to add.
We in naija, no sanctions oh, increase oil revenue. Budget of $50 oil price now over $120, instead of naira to appreciate it is still depreciating. ₦600 to $1 today.
NO BE JUJU BE THAT?

I beg to differ. My vehicle is electric but to someone with a car that runs on fuel, it could have a huge impact. But the topic of this thread is Nigeria.

Maxymilliano:
Lai Mohammed reasoning and excuses is like that of a student that failed an exam and gave an excuse that the most brilliant students also failed.

Alhaji Lai is a colossal waste of space.

Just wondering o. I am sorry, please permit my ignorance.

Is it the global rise in food prices that created insecurity in Nigeria which drove away all farmers from the farms ?

Is it also the global rise in food prices that told us to close the borders without making any preparation for the after effects ?

Could it also be that it is the same global price increase that makes it easy for arms and ammunitions to easily pass through the borders while foodstuff and other necessaries couldn't ?

But insecurity hasn't bn addede to their problem like our pathetic state of living here.
Werey in disguised ni Lai Mohammed yi sha

He’s right but that doesn’t mean we have to give up.

This is coming from someone that always lie so it not new thing

Na God go judge una

The man is speaking the truth though but Nigerians are tired of this Government so no amount of explanation will enter our Medullas ���

What a disingenuous statement from a government official.

This man is a fool. How can an old man be talking like this? In 2023? Is he aware of what's happening on Ukraine and the sanctions flying upandan? Is Nigeria part of the war? Or doesn't the baga know that our economy has been unstable since their regime? U ppl make growing old a mistake.

Mumu talk!

Also what about electricity.

Someone should help me remind Mr. Lie Mohammed that the countries he was comparing Nigeria with have social security for their citizens. Primary and secondary education are free. UK and Canada have free healthcare, in other countries like US where it is otherwise, there is basic healthcare (Medicaid) for the poor, food stamps are also given to poor families so that their children don’t go hungry. There is also jobless benefit for the unemployed in the UK etc.

In Nigeria there is absolutely zero social safety net! Zilch! When this government pretended to create something for the ‘poor’, it became a conduit for them to suck the treasury dry. Set of wicked and evil vipers. Judgement awaits you and your generations.

This guy always lie why... Because he is lie

Where are all these witches and wizards Help me suck this man's blood, please �!
Do this for the love of the country!!

Not Nigeria’s Problem — Buhari Government

am not surprised u are only working for your money!

Too many unintelligent folks on the thread.

Nigerians have been experiencing high cost of fuel,food before the Ukraine-Russia crises,it only got worse.

Lie Mohammed is a master deceiver.

And my response was to a blatant lie.

No additional help is being rendered anywhere.

The link was to prospective assistance and if it's anything like the covid-19 assistance it will be inconsistent and insufficient.

Agreed. In the UK energy prices have increased by 54%, Public transportation increased, council tax and food prices have all increased. However, minimum wage is increasing from April, Government is giving rebates on council taxes for most households, compulsory interest fee loan to be repaid over 5 years is given to all households on energy bills and some employers are looking at increasing pay to cushion the effect of high cost of living and inflation. Though all these measures are still not enough but it is still something.

The question to Lai and the government is what are measures put in place to help the citizens here?

mmsen:

This is a prospective, one off paliative.

I disagree.
But how does that make the situation in Nigeria better? Believe me, people are suffering more there. So is it okay for the government not to assist citizens there?

Why don't you compare the other sectors? Is Nigeria working or you think we are acting comedy

UK and USA are not "advanced countries".... stop it please.....

Buhari will handle security
Osinbajo will handle economy
That’s how 2 old men deceived us with CHANGE ( and truly everything changed for the worse ) , till now we don’t know the direction of the NEXT LEVEL .
The hallmark of this government is blame game.
If it’s not PDP , it’s Jonathan, or low price of crude oil.
Oil has been on the high for months now , nobody is hearing anything about it .
How have the whole borrowing affected the poor masses ?
You copy only the negatives .
I hope your government copied paying ransom to terrorist , herdsmen and bandits from US as UK ?
Hope the ASUU strike was copied from there ? And their government officials go to medicals in other country ?
Funny the minister of education was among the protesters of ASUU strike during Jonathan tenure .
During lockdown the palliatives donated by private individuals and companies was hoarded for election campaign.
I want to see the APC election manifesto 2015, let them tick it , and see how they have fared ?
Blameless APC government .
We are watching .

Foolish set of people.

Usual bullocks for Brainless buffoons and doomed zombies
Pathetic, good for nothing, senile simpleton!

FYI, Nig has been enmeshed in gross inadequate food supplies due to bokoharm and banditry,EVER BEFORE THE GLOBAL CRISIS, and even at that, the US has been robustly assisting it's citizens unlike the shithole govt!

. # stop insulting the sensibilities of SANE Nigerians, eleribu, mashanfani eda gbogbo!

This man again!

Uprightness100:
To be Sincere, they are right on this.

The Ukraine/ Russia war is bringing the world into the Shadows of the Great Tribulation. Russia and Ukraine are responsible for 50% of the World's Wheat.
Russia is a very Major Force in Gas in the World. The Covid Plandemic also caused a whole lot.

Famines, Inflation, Hunger, are at an all time High.
But Guess what ? It's in times and Seasons as these that those who BELIEVE and TRUST in ANCIENT of DAYS, Live Large. I don't mean those who believe in GOD in Mouth or Just lips Service. I mean those who Depend on GOD indeed!

We Live by the Economy of Heaven and not by what the Nations say.
Do yourself good to Hop in to JESUS Christ indeed, Walking with HIM, Depending and Trusting in HIM. You will see and Understand Miracle.

Shut up your mouth jor. Did we start experiencing high price of things now or it has been since buhari came in as president. Prices have escalated long ago so they can't use the world problem to justify what has been happening long time ago.

When will Nigerian politicians start comparing the country with the good things happening in other countries?

Thunder will soon strike this old lying machine

No, it's not a global problem. Prices are high all over the world because prices of petroleum products have increased due to the gang up of Europe and America against Russia.

However, prices in Nigeria has been rising astronomically since Buhari became President. So the current high prices of goods and services in Europe and America is not same as the Economic recession and depression that Buhari and his gang of thieves have dragged Nigeria into.
