Nigeria is already known as one of the poorest countries in the world but i believe the duty of governments of the country (if they are sincere to themselves) is to work to change the status and not to make policies that deepened the poverty situation.

Whether anybody likes it or not, the policies taken by this government which is responsible for the hardship Nigerians are currently going through would only render more Nigerians poor and poorer.

In a country where unemployment/underemployment is so high, people are struggling to even feed and survive. A very good example is myself. I am underemployed, that is to say my salary is poor and nothing to write home about. Not as though i'm happy about this as i am still looking for better opportunities.

Of truth, only N600 was left with me yesterday. I couldn't afford to have dinner and so i slept empty stomach that yesterday. There's this woman selling bread near a bakery along the road i pass to work. Her price is considered the cheapest, so many people buy from her. My plan was to use the N600 to buy bread from there, which i can manage throughout the day or even till tomorrow, hopefully miracle can happen and another money enters my hand.

As i went there this morning, the N600 bread is now N800. No surprise about that at all, knowing the country we are living in today. This spoilt the plan and i was confused, disturbed and broken down. I stood there for over 5 mins hopelessly, with hunger and anger in me.

That small time, one elderly woman in the shop was sobbing. I later realized she started crying after she couldn't afford the current price of rice. Another guy came and asked for a pack of indomie and was told N1000. He sighed bitterly and left. Then i saw another two guys who came to the shop, joined their money together (400+400) and bought the N800 bread and divided it into two, for each.

That was a nice decision though even though it would reduce the quantity, but as i didnt see someone to join too, i left the place to work without buying the bread.

Any alternatives for me?

There's absolutely no alternative for since everything is on the high side. I could have opted for rice and beans, but i wont know when i will start crying after mamaput has dished the quantity for me. Surely it will be small. So i decided not to go near there. What about Garri and soup? I dont know for everywhere but i can tell you, there's mow where i could find a plate of Garri and soup for N600. Even if there is, i would still cry over the quantity. What about noodles that used to do 'rescue mission'? Well, i just told you a pack is now N1000, when i had only N600 with me. What of biscuit? I refused to "waste" my last money on something that would not last me the next 1 hour after i have eaten. Akara? Have you seen the sizes of Akara in recent? N100 own looks very small, so i still decided not to buy.

At the end, all options failed. Till this minute, nothing has entered my stomach and i'm still holding tight to my N600. Yes i am hungry and weak but the N600 must be for something that can keep me for a while, hopefully another money would come my way before i am hungry again.

Sadly, my in quote "salary" is still far, till Thursday next week, but i have to survive however it is.

It's a very tough time for most of us Nigerians right now.

Lastly, government should know that
most Nigerians are not asking for luxury, just basic things made affordable for survival and food is obviously not affordable to many Nigerians today. Please government should do something about food crisis in the country.

May God help us, the common citizens.

if we don"t rise to speak in a loud way they can hear, people will die of hunger. The same death we fear.

(Global Petrol Prices)

having seen this, some idioots will say petrol is cheap in Nigeria than those countries. Meanwhile an average man in those countries does not buy petrol. While almost everybody buys petrol here because of electricity. Finally it is also worthy to note that all this country that are being compared with us does not have crude oil as we do or they don"t have at all.

Dey play rich pikin,thank god for what u have,u just spread ur mouth to talk noncense instead to encourage the person

how is she a rich kid?. She is just claiming what she is not.

[quote author=abc115 post=128661366][/quote]Mark my word. Tinubu can not make Nigeria any better. Let's start from his appointees, which of them is an expert on the portfolio given to him?.
All his appointees are politicians. Tinubu himself how did he get into power. If u study logic in statistics you will know what it takes to have a "tautology".

SoNature:
How one man can rewrite the destiny of hundreds of thousands of voters and still be made the Minister of FCT is the reason why the world cannot take Nigeria seriously!

if the person the vote was stolen for is in power, you should expect that everybody around him will be the same thief.

Africans and stupidity. Imagine perpetuating what a few white men designed for their selfish benefit. Imagine if it was Asians or Europeans that some race sat at a table and shared like cake. Even Arab tribe won't permit it. It can only be the black race tolerating rubbish. None would have the boldness to ask why.

who take them serious. How can u sell what does not belong to you. If the owner comes, u should go and collect ur money from the seller.

BigBlackPreek:
Good day familylanders.

I come here to air my current dilemma and ask for a way out.

I'm married with a kid, got separated with my husband last year Jan due to some little issues that weren't managed properly and got escalated..

We stayed in touch for A year cos of child welfare and the rest. He obviously had a relationship with another lady in his base, while I remain single

Sometimes this year, we started talking about reconciliation and the talks went well, we've seen our mistakes and accepted to work on the marriage.

He confessed to me he had a relationship with a lady but he told he was married with a child and he wasn't going to divorce his wife neither marry her (the lady) so twas a deal sort of and he has broken up with her ( which she confirmed)

He's come to see me in my place and I got posted for an official assignment to his state..He told me the girl has refused to leave even after he told her he has reconciled with his wife and the rest.

I got in yesterday and all hell was let loose, the lady was so violent and was saying all manner of trash,threatening fire and hailstone..

I simply asked her, do you know he was married? Did he tell you we were divorced?? Did you see my things in the house?

She answered "yes". She said she has no place to go..I was even willing to give her something to take care of herself but she said " no", she wanted my husband and I should start realising she will become a second wife..

My husband in all this have been calling people to talk to her and go without violence..She's called my in-laws to curse (dunno how she got their numbers)... calling friends to tell them she isn't moving out of the house

It's really messy here and I don't want to create a scene..someone advised me I should involve the Civil defence authority.
I really dunno what to do
Please advise me

your husband should have out her away without getting you involved. Probably do that before ur arrival.
Even if u get any force to pull her out, don't forget she is human who emotions has been toyed with. She is feeling been used.

So at 7500 or 8000 in their mind they have done well.

This is all because of Naira fall to dollar. You will not understand till u change 1k for 400 cfa to pay 25000cfa for one useless hotel. Which 8s about #60k meanwhile 10 months aga it would have been #22k by convertion rate. This conutry is completly finshed in the hand of Tinubu and his supporters.

Where the guns?. The people disturbing nah this kind gun them they use?.

Kobicove:
Which guy would be comfortable kissing a woman with full facial hair like this?

same on my mind. And if u manage to kiss her country people go say u dey kiss ur fellow man, And u won't blame them because they can only see from side.

The only reason why things are calm now is because people are being distracted by this football. Woo betard us if we did not win. This I have seen.

then increase production of crude oil. Sell to other people and also to Dagote. Because he is planning to buy from USA.

What's all this about this jobless south Africans. We have won Argentina, Brazil and Mexico in a world class tournament heaven did not fall so small South Africa can not do shiit.

nairalanda1:
You should forget about the tribe. It has nothing to do with what is happening.

For over 5 decades, you have lived with the illusion that fuel is cheap. The illusion is breaking, and we are seeing what other African countries are seeing...that fuel is expensive. Very much so.

Tinubu is trying so hard to maintain the illusion. But as you can see cracks are appearing

It is time we all accepted fuel was never cheap in the first place. Maintaining the illusion has cost us billions of naira and four refineres.

please compare Nigeria with other africa countries that have crude oil like Nigeria. Stop doing blind comparison.

HIGH COMMISSION OF THE FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA 971 FRANCIS BAARD STREET. ARC:ALMA -11083. PRETORIA

ADVISORY ON SAFE CONDUCT FOR NIGERIANS IN SOUTH AFRICA BEFORE, DURING AND AFTER 2024 AFCON MATCH BETWEEN SUPER EAGLES AND BAFANA BAFANA

The attention of the Nigeria High Commission Pretoria has been drawn to potentially inflammatory online comments made by a section of South African citizens against Nigerians living in host country, largely influenced by the upcoming 2024 African Cup of Nations (AFCON) semi-final match between the Super Eagles and the Bafana Bafana on Wednesday February 2024.

2. Most of the comments consist of veiled threats against "Nigerians cooking jollof rice" before the match, and "showing pepper to Nigerians if the Bafana Bafana lose to the Super Eagles", among others.

3. In this regard, the High Commission hereby advises the Nigerian community to be watchful of their utterances, be mindful of where they choose to watch the match especially in public places, and refrain from engaging in loud, riotous or provocative celebrations should the Super Eagles win the match.

4. Additionally, Nigerians should maintain the good conduct they are known for, and be law abiding before, during and after the match. Should any provocations arise, they should not be reciprocated but reported to the appropriate authorities.

High Commission of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Pretoria, South Africa
February, 2024

so what should we then do to south Africans living in Nigeria should incase they win and try to celebrate. Nigerian are just docile.

That nice to know. But I can assure them that if the prices of commodities remain this cheap, it would just be a matter of time before the people will rise.

When we are telling them to vote wisely they thought we are fools. Can someone please tell me one good thing tinubu has done since he becomes the president through the back door.

he said they have been able to reduce the amount of vehicles on the road thereby reduce air pollution.

essentialone:
How much does it cost to drill (dig) a Borehole, on an average?

there is already a tank on the ground.
there is already an overhead concrete scaffold with 1 tank above.
there is already a surface pump that transfers water from the big ground tank to the tank overhead.
also, a 1.5HP submersible pump and switch has also been procured.

From this stage what is remaining to have a complete Borehole, and how much will it cost, on an average?

depend on the are in place here it 90k to 180k
