I understand where you're coming from. All i'm trying to say is i can do without satchet water & so can a lot of people in my present location. As a matter fact, it still sells for N10 per satchet. The producers here may not be able to deal with reduced sales that comes with price hike.
Guy the only way forex wont affect the water you drink is if you go to the stream and drink water with your hands or your mouth direct.

dondo83:
very matured response and i give you kudos for that , however let me break it down on how it works. The money been spent at the moment is the supplementary budget of almost 600billion that was passed last year around September. in a lame mans explanation, if you want to build house and the builder gives you quotation, can he starts building without the owner giving him funds? The answer is NO.. so what Nigerians should do is to direct the wailing to the national assembly to hurry up and pass the budget then hold buhari accountable if he still uses we will when the budget is passed. For now na siddon look we dey until the budget is passed . cheers
Thanks for the compliments, but wait a minute you said **Hold Buhari* ahaha even you know that can never happen.So the way its going we may have to do another supplementary budget. when may comes.

only if school passed through you then you will know clean water is a major aspect to primary health care, alot of diseases affect rural areas due to villagers not being able to drink clean water. if the borehole is available it automatically prevents some illnesses ..

Also for the people lamenting be patient, without budget the government can only tell us their plans but cant roll it out! when the budget is passed then you can judge, wailing now is just a sign of ignorance
guy for one year? we go wait until one year b4 budget? so are they gonna remove spent monies from the budget when it is finally passed? the money they are spending now who is going to account for it, from what budget? see massive fraud going on right in front of our eyes.stay there, no wail

You have made good point, but technically if he still sell at the old price knowing fully well that the cost is now higher than usual, he's already running at loss, coz by the time he goes back to the market to replace his stock, he won't be able to with d money at hand. That's why at the end of the day most business men end up buying not as much as they use to buy.
Thank you very much @porozhniy see this reason as well ,same as the one I just gave you.

Do we buy spare parts every day? Why is the cost nylon bags and it's allied products still the same in the market? Yes,When it comes to clean and contained water, i have an alternative and i use it.
Come on man you can do better than this,why does the cost of a piece of land go up with time even though nothing is added to the land?
Answer, there is development around it.This is how world market works, when you are not in control of production from A-Z,certain things will add to your overhead at some point,cos if you sell at same price, you wont be able to buy bulk of new stock of same product.

we? Speak for yourself please. I arrange my lean resources to meet my basic needs and buying a bag of satchet water for N150 is not a basic need for me. 20 ltrs of water sells for N10 in my area & with a water dispenser i'm good to go. Yes, i believe we have alternatives needed to survive this economic downturn, you jst gotta look inwards.
So what's your alternative? You mention water dispenser. ?would the price not go up as well since its bought with forex? ?so where is your economics of scale?there is no substitute to chose from without forex when it comes to clean and contained water. As U speak right now yoyr phone /laptop was bought via forex so if you where to provide services with it right now the cost of a spare one will add to your overhead.

Of course the Government can control nd regulate this issue.

I didn't do much of Economics, but I remember that there is supposed to be an Agency or Ministry that is Incharge of Price Regulation nd Promotion, just as we have PPPRA nd DPR for Petroleum products...I just can't remember the name of the Agency or whether the are still in active existence
They cannot cos we are in a deregulated market ie free trade.price co trolley works wen govt subsidise certain goods and services. Lack of competition too.A good policy would be go t collect zero tax and import duty for all industrial machinaries and research equipment to encourage young minds. Will they do that? NO

I can't believe a Nigerian will utter the statement that other materials are imported for the production of pure water... can you tell me what and what are needed please... for your information nothing is imported unless they are buying new machines everyday. so stop guessing.
The sachets where do they come from?and the plastic where do they come from?and the moulds used? The extruder? These costs are passed on to the pure water distributor and passed on to the end user

It is glaring that Nigerians are their own worst enemies.Even the pepper and meat seller are using Dollars as an excuse to hike their products, no wonder the country is not moving forward.
This is what I was trying to explain to some of us Dollar rise will affect everything even the air yoy breath. As per pure water.the machinaries has serviceable parts imported with forex.the sachets are produced from polyethylene. Some of which are imported.the price ting on it are done by machine imported with imported serviceable parts.How about transportation .the vehicles needs parts imported with forex. So it will surely go up even the tomato seller will increase thier prices as cost of transportation would go up.due to parts.very soon petrol will go up as cost of import will increase.

Did you pass through the E/W Road 15 years ago?

Now, who will go to start building a "new" E/W Road when he can 'cheaply' remedy or upgrade or expand or dualize or repair the existing E/W Road?

Please, show just show us where a 'new' road is required to connect states in Nigeria?

Sir, when you hear that a road is being 'dualized', it means you are building a completely new traffic lane. Now consider it...what is it called, if not a new road?
Even at that. They have to dig up the old East West rd and start from fresh. And they also forgot the 2nd Niger bridge. Let's see if this govt will even continue

Their target was for the Naira to deteriorate up to ₦1,000/$. At that point we would have no choice than to allow the world bank and IMF to determine our economic, even political direction.

IMF and world bank are nothing but neo-colonial instruments to control the resources/economy of third world countries. They're like under-takers, they only come in when you have a burial, and they'll help you bury your loved ones, which is why Ms. Christine Lagard was in Nigeria few weeks ago. Because, they already simulated a total economic disaster leading to death of the Naira. If everything is all ok with Nigeria they'll be looking for how to rock our boat.
Well look what happened to Greece. Can't we learn from them

I'm so happy the IMF and the world bank have been disgraced. Hopefully, their forecast of economic doom for Nigeria has been averted. African nations should queue up on this model. Independence means independence, not partial independence.
How does the situation on ground relate to your statement?The Only reason The Dollar lost ground is cos no one wants to buy as it is,its too expensive so less demand. if people decide to buy to enable trade then the demand will be high again thus high forex.
