Producers of sachet water in Effurun, Jeddo and Warri in Delta State, have embarked on a three-day strike which commenced on Friday, 15th March 2024.

They claimed that the strike became imperative “as the cost of production continues to bite harder on small business owners across the country.”

High prices of materials may send sachet water producers out of business– Association president

This was contained in a statement signed by the coordinator of producers of sachet water in the said areas, Cletus Ebohon, which was made available to journalists in Warri on Friday.

According to the statement, the price of a bag of sachet water would now sell for N450, unlike the previous N350, with effect from Monday, March 18, 2024.

A sachet of pure water is now fifty naira in warii,delta state

Naira is loosing value badly that's why. I don't know how a strike can preserve the value of a falling naira.

Crazy liars. They disguise cost of living crisis as high cost of production. How come northern states are able to sell for less after transporting material over extra distances?

Some still sell a bag for N200 and 3 cold sachet for N50.
