How you can use 5k as a student for a week.

1 painter of garri 1300
3 packs of spaghetti 1800
4 cups beans of 600
2 satchets of tomatoes 200
2 Satchets of groundnut oil 300
2 cups of sugar 400
Groundnut 300

Total= N4900

A mixture of 2 cup of beans and spaghetti should last two days for you. use the garri, groundnut and sugar to be subsidising o

austerity measures!

garriAndsugar:
Oil beans 300 from mama put, add water, small maggi and boil. Filter the beans and use the water as soup with fufu 200 in the morning eat the beans with garri in the evening.

Next day buy 2 indomie 300 and fufu 200 add enough water and spices let it be like pepper soup, use the fufu to swallow with the pepper soup in the morning then eat the filtered indomie in the evening.

With these you might end up spending 500 to 600 daily

Once you step out from your house. The money will fly like a wind.

Despite the economy. I still believe 5k if well manage properly can go for a week.

Buy meat 1000,
egusi 500,
Obgono 500 and okro 300.
Smoke fish 600.
Use balance buy Garri, Oil, crayfish, ugu leaf. some days you go just buy fufu 200.
Make too much Garri nor blind your eye.

Cut the meat Very little that can go for a week.

Cook Two soup, egusi and draw soup.

Mix the ogbono and okro together.

Borrow money to buy 2kg wheat if you can,

You will need to skip meal like 101 Or 011 even 001.

It will carry you for one week if it's just only you.

Then again other factor need to come in. If you have freezer. Gas, light bills. 5k is no longer money again oh. Hustle hard.
This your advice funny die grin

Op it's like you go sleep for some days o

Then make a very low budget vegetable or pepper soup for swallow, you can even go without meat and expensive fish, go for the cheap ones, you can make food with bonga and okporoko, you can even learn how to make egg pepper soup without meat, then buy fufu from the manufacturer at counting price, no enjoyment and no unnecessary spending, Trek everywhere, no Airtime, no Data, Sub night Data if you need internet for something important, As E don red so, Try visit your friends and try to eat at their houses, there's no shame if you ask for help

Or you can buy one basket of garri for N1500, then be buying 1 eba with 1 meat everyday, tell them to put plenty soup, make more eba when you get home, separate the soup into 2 parts and manage for 2 meals a day, this is very realistic

You can be buying groundnut from the remaining change and drink garri sometimes

It seems you came from a very rich home, for you to say 5k is not enough weekly...

What does he wants to buy? That he can't manage 5k weekly just on food alone?


Before I graduated 12years ago, my parent used to send 5k to me for one month, I know how I'm going to manage myself...

School is one of the place you can curb and learn how to manage your present spending to suit your future spending, as things will keep being on a high side
Lol..You comparing this present economy with an economy before buharii Era, Seriously?

12 years ago a loaf of bread probably cost 40 Naira. Today, that same bread cost 200 Naira. 5,000 Naira was a decent money 12 years ago, a money a person could live on for a month and I lived on it.

12 years ago my pocket money that would last me for an entire session was just 5,000 Naira. Looking From where I am standing you are the one who came from a very wealthy home.

Sorry about the situation.

I want to assume that you have access to N5,000 every week and you are also a male.

With that assumption, try and cook beans for the week. Mix it up with garri once in a while. Take a lot of water too.

All that is just to ease your mind when the hunger gets unbearable. As a guy, try and be strong and also look out for something legitimate you can invest the N5,000 for next week in. Try not to lose your money in the process.

If you succeed in getting 5% to 30% return, then fully adopt it as a side hustle while studying. With that in place, you would no longer need to ration your food in subsequent weeks.

You need to clarify whether you want to manage 5k and still eat well or you just want to survive on 5k.

If it is the latter then garri is a sure bet.

1k garri will last a full week with excess. You can eat one egg a day for protein.

Then buy multi vitamins to make up for lost nutrients.

All of this is about 2.5k. Then try to eat one nice meal a week...just to keep yourself feeling like a human being.

As you do this, keep in mind that this terrible time shall pass.
