EducationRe: 5 Foods Undergraduates Eat When They Are Broke by Jamesrock(m): 7:54pm On Jul 28, 2018
Solomonudofia:
Running out of cash is a thing among Nigerian students. Except you are born with a silver spoon and you come to school with the spoon, you may not really understand what it means to be broke on campus.

Many Nigerian students understand this well, and they try as much as possible to adjust when their wallets and bank accounts begin to look deserted.

Yea, the semester will soon be winding down and it is only normal to adjust to the situation by eating whatever is available since your pocket won’t be rich enough to get you the meal you’ll like to eat.

So, when students are broke like this on campus, there are certain foods they eat to keep them going.

1. Garri



Popularly known as G4 on campus, anyone who attends a Public higher institution in Nigeria would understand the role Garri plays in the life of undergraduates.

This cassava flakes is more like the best food anyone can resort to when the semester is winding down and the pocket is getting empty.

Garri is arguably the easiest to prepare for students. It can go either with cold water, sugar, and groundnuts or hot water to make Eba

2. Concoction



When you don’t feel like taking Garri because you’ve had too much of it, concoction becomes the best alternative mostly for male students.

Concoction is the combination of rice and anything you can lay your hands upon just to quench your hunger.

3. Potato



The choice of potato as a fast food is very common among undergraduates studying in the Northern part of Nigeria.

This is because Potatoes are very cheap and the high price of yams is discouraging enough for students to choose these vegetables over yams.

4. Beans



This is believed to be the most popular source of protein for Nigerian students.

Beans is that food a lot of male students resignedly take with Garri when they are running out of cash.

5. Risky Burger



Risky Burger is a combination of bread and suya and apart from Garri, nothing is more readily available for students to reduce hunger pangs. This staple food must have been serving Nigerian students for a very long time.

It is such a popular staple that some universities have bakeries. Some broke undergraduates can’t afford to ignore any loaf that comes their way.

These foods are very important to broke students. However, these five make the list because they are very popular, if you know any other foods undergraduates eat when they are broke, tell us in the comment section.

For God's sake, Nigerians should wake-up to the reality that education is not cheap.

How are you confused?
You have gone to great lengths to list all aspects of her that is at great odds to what you want. You are not compatible and that’s something that’s obvious to him so what’s the problem?
See you can’t make a square fit into a round hole. It’s up to you really marry her knowing the frustrations you will face we won’t be in that house with you. But I have to say men like you annoy me a little bit. Even when itsbsoe blatantly obvious that you are not on the same page still you try and somehow make it work online for things to fall apart early in the marriage. But you knew what you were getting into, what exactly are you expecting? Miracles?
You are a grown man no one can tell you what to do at the end of the day. You know what’s going on already.

You're romantic while she isn't
these are individual differences bro, it will be selfish on ur part for u to force her to become what she's not, u both can't be compatible in all areas. try to meet each other halfway.
As for the romantic part ,it all fall on u bro, I'm sure if u teach her she'll learn, I don't mean constantly telling her how she's not romantic, I mean teaching her and guiding her through with ur actions. you'll be amazed at how much she'll improve. Good luck bro

I can relate with you,but the only reason she is like that is because her parents are well to do,she doesn't have any worry. I have a friend like that too,I introduced her to a part time job that would bring #50,000 a month,her response was her dad said she should not do it. She wants a government job where she would go 8-4,without stress. My conclusion is unlike me,I know the kind of family I come from,that alone is a driving force for me,its motivates me where as she feels life is not complex as long as she sleeps and wake up on her parents watch.
