A week ago I bought it 5,500 Naira but this week I bought it for 7,500 in Lagos mainland.
12mm iron rod(single piece) now goes for 8,500 Naira from 3,500 a few weeks ago.
Gravel small tipper is now 80,000 Naira depending on the distance.
Sharp sand 10 tons trailer is now 140,000 depending on the distance.

I am apolitical but this is crazy and crushing on the masses.
Landlords must certainly increase house rent after buying materials at these absurd rates.

NB: The cement seller informed me that the appropriate price of a bag of 50 kg cement is 10,000 Naira for any brand.(Dangote,Bua and Lafarge.)

Also bought a surface pumping machine 1 horse power 90,000 Naira from 35,000 Naira last year.(Inter dab) It is just scary!

Even if your papa wipe you oraimo cord... U go still blame tinubu...

For cement wen dangote dey produce, u dey blame tinubu say e dey expensive... Na wa o

Oga ..stop capping..

This is solely the fault of Tinubu...every damn commodity has reason up.. don't they have producers as well?

or Dangote is immune to the hardship dollar rates and fuel subsidy removal?


If you want to blame Dangote for cement..kuku blame farmers for food hike.. blame gas stations for fuel prices as well

Bag of cement we bought on Tuesday was 7200 naira. Maybe slightly less in some areas. Really going higher. Even iron prices have gone hight. Just to buy 3 doors now cost us about 4.9m naira and this was getting us 8doors in 2022. God help us all.

Not every local person is privileged to access some foreign currency.

But I wanted to focus on what you said about nothing backing the naira again and hence collapsing its value.

Smart countries like Singapore have for years used a hybrid approach to defend their currency. When the price of Gold falls, they shore up a significant portion of their reserves in Gold. Their Central Bank is mandated not only to rely on US Dollars but also on Gold.

Russia is also using this trick to exploit poor African countries like Sudan and others to tap as much Gold as possible in order to defend their currency.

Why is the FG not mandating the Central Bank to start building a Gold Reserve by first and foremost taking control of every Gold mine and deposit within the country?

--------Refs to Singapore: https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/singapore-s-central-bank-boosted-gold-reserves-30-in-january-1.1893589

Central banks worldwide have been building holdings of bullion as the dollar’s strength has waned in recent months, while retail buyers have also bolstered purchases as a shield from geopolitical uncertainty and rampant inflation. China increased its gold reserves for a fourth straight month in February, while Turkey was the biggest buyer of the precious metal among central banks last year.

Spot gold was little changed at $1,831.34 an ounce as of 9:54 a.m. in Singapore. It climbed 1% Thursday after a metric of US unemployment came in higher than expected, increasing the scope for the Federal Reserve to take a less hawkish approach. Bullion is down more than 1% this week, but is still slightly above where it was at the start of the year.

-----

You didn't plan well. Dollar is the currency that's digitally accessible most in the world.
If Nigeria were a country of 5 million people then storing gold will be a good thing but damm Nigeria population is 200 million and $15 billion gold reserve can't do anything to our economy.

To prove that your preferred choice is a failure

You are in a country that uses naira, and yet you have to save ur money in another currency other than your native currency in your native land, does that not show you that ur man has failed even you

It shows even you don't trust the man, you support


It's a shame


NO, It's shows that Nigeria is in a transition phase and the naira is not stable at the moment

One of the enemies of Nigeria. It's seems this hike in prices of goods and services doesn't reach your side and that gave you the latitude to blackmail someone that is feeling the pain of Tinubu's policies.
What some of you hailers of government refused to realize is, no matter how, every policy of government will either positively or negatively affect the people. And again, not all out problems require prayer but only action. Nigeria is one of the most religious country in the world but one of the most backward country in the world.
We cannot continue in this trajectory, the economy is not laughing at all and some of you still want to silence deferring voices. It shall not be well with evil politicians in this country.
Now, let me guess, you're still under the apron spring of your parents, hence, you're not feeling the brunt of this regime's policies.

He should sack as many as he needs to sack, to avoid being called out for the terrible situation in the country.


How long has the painful transition in Lagos lasted without ordinary pipe borne water supply to every building? 24 years plus?

How much longer should it last for before 20 million Lagosians take tap water for granted like Chicagoans? Do you know? Any idea

And you think Tinubu has not compounded the security problem with this excruciating economy, putting into consideration that poverty breeds insecurity. The insecurity will continue to multiply as far as people continue to deep into extreme poverty. A reasonable government will solve both hunger and security simultaneously but the unwise one will leave it undone and put the country into chaos.

It takes investment to solve the problem of poverty. Where's the investment coming from if every good is subsidized in Nigeria?!.

No wonder you're commenting like kid. You're still fixated in election issue while those that lose are talking about governance. This is the problem of some of you hailers and politicians, you don't separate politics from governance.
Young Man, we are talking of governance and have long passed the junction of politics.
Reformation does not birth excruciating pain that will results into the death of citizens and increase vices. The floating of naira and the removal of subsidy is not citizens' friendly because it has deepened the poverty line of the nation the more. This is a time bomb and is not time to play politics with it.
