Nice submission Op. I had thought of this several times in the past. And I keep wondering why it's this way. But at the other hand, it's a global ish. It's not only in Nigeria.
There are certain countries that are exception to this trend. Businesses sometimes deflate prices to stay afloat in a low-demand market situations.

BusinessWhy Do Consumer Prices Continue To Rise So Dramatically In Nigeria? by lolaxavier(op): 4:10pm On Jun 02, 2017
https://i1.wp.com/brandspurng.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/market-metro.jpg?fit=800%2C450&ssl=1

In the current economic climate, it would be perfectly reasonable for a Nigerian to expect prices to come down.

With less disposable income available, demand is low. Basic economic theory says prices should follow. Where demand declines, so should prices. Yet in Nigeria this has not been the experience. Nigeria has seen astronomical rises in prices over the last three decades. In the 1970s, the price of a bottle of coke was 15 kobo, today it is N150. That’s a 99.9% price increase. This has been the trend for many products. In the days when NYSC ‘alawee’ was N200, we could eat a decent meal for about N2.

Today, N200 is barely enough to buy a meal from the side of the road and the N19, 800 ‘alawee’ is considered meager by many. The primary reason for the dramatic increase in prices over the years: the decline in the value of the naira.

As The Naira Depreciates, Costs Increase
Milton Friedman once said that inflation occurs when the growth in the supply of money outpaces real economic output (i.e. GDP growth). This offers one explanation to why the domestic value of the naira has decreased over time: the growth in money supply has been greater than the growth of Nigeria’s real GDP.

Because prices are valued in currency, when the value of a currency falls over time, the price of the goods increase. So while the price of a good depends on its own perceived value, it also depends on the market value of money.

The exchange rate provides the best explanation for the declining value of money. Relative to the dollar, the naira has lost 99.7% since its introduction in the 1970s. From N0.65 to $1 in 1973, to N7.4/$ in 1990, to N85/$ in 2000, to N148.21/$ in 2010, and now N305/$ in 2017.

The result of this chronic depreciation on consumer prices can be summed up in a simple example. If a pair of slippers is priced at N2, 000, and the value of the naira falls by 10%, while the market value of the slippers stays constant, the price of the slippers would increase proportionately to N2200.
This is because traders/producers transfer the burden of increased im-port costs to consumers in order to maintain their profit margins. Most times, they do this overtime.

Therefore, as long as the ex-change rate continues to decline, local prices will move in the opposite direction.

Local Production the Only Way to Ameliorate the Depreciating Naira
The exchange rate has such a significant impact on local prices because Nigeria is an import-dependent country. Most goods sold in Nigeria are either imported as finished products, or produced locally with imported raw materials. Without a stronger domestic economy, prices of our favorite products are likely to increase even more in the future.

To reverse this trend, the economy needs to increase local production (of raw/finished products) and reduce its dependence on imports.

As lucrative as the course is, it may be sometimes frustrating​ kick-starting in that field. I had my Bsc in Applied Geophysics and my masters in Exploration Geophysics but as fate would have it, I didn't get to find my way into the industry. At the end, I ended up in another field entirely and I have built a lucrative six-year career in it.

Ask her and the yeye girl will say 'oh he loves me and he's caring, he only beats me up by mistake ' or it only happens when he's angry. Na so ur papa dey take beat ur mama?? shiiioooorrrr.
The earlier you learn how to run for your life, the better. On no account should any real man or woman beat up his or her partner. It's a shame and a sign or cowardice. Say no to violence.

CrimePolice Sergeant, Bank Official Arrested For Bank Robbery by lolaxavier(op): 6:09am On Dec 27, 2016

THE Rivers State Police Command has confirmed the arrest of one Sergeant Promise Ukwuoma and an employee of Access Bank, Rumuolumeni Branch, Samuel Ndudiri, identified as members of a criminal gang who attempted to rob the bank.

The policeman and the bank worker were said to have been apprehended after a discreet investigation by operatives of the Intelligence Response Team with assistance from the Technical Intelligence Unit of the Nigeria Police.

According to an online statement, which was confirmed by the State Police Public Relations Officers, Mr. Nnamdi Omoni, the duo, were arrested at about 11.35 hours on Friday.

It will be recalled that operatives of the Command on Thursday foiled what would have been a major bank robbery in the state and arrested three suspects.



The three suspects and others on the run had brought a filled gas cylinder to the Access Bank premises in Rumuolumeni and had engaged in cutting the main door leading to the bank when security operatives stormed the place.

However, some members of the gang, including a police corporal, Gabriel Igwe, of the 19 Police Mobile Force, are currently on the run, while two AK 47 rifles belonging to the serving police personnel were recovered during Friday’s operation.

Ndudiri, the Access Bank employee, was said to have masterminded the failed robbery of the bank with the assistance of the police sergeant, who is from the Department of Operations, Port Harcourt.

“Arrest of a serving Police Sergeant and bank staff involved in bank robbery and recovery of two AK47 rifles belonging to serving personnel on 23/12/2016 at about 1135hrs.

“Sequel to the arrest and handing over of three suspects involved in Access Bank, Eagle Cement Rumuelumeni branch robbery to Intelligence Response Team by CP, Rivers State, for discreet investigation, IRT operatives immediately commenced investigation and with technical assistance from TIU (Technical Intelligence Unit), two key members of the gang were arrested.

“Sergeant Promise Ukwuoma of DOPS Port Harcourt and Mr. Samuel Ndudiri ‘m’, 38 years, a staff of Access Bank, Eagle Cement (Rumuolumeni) branch, who brought the job and masterminded the robbery were both arrested in Port Harcourt.

“Exhibits recovered are two AK47 Rifles with breach Nos. 523513 / 21173 and two AK47 rifle magazines fully loaded. One Cpl. Igwe Gabriel of 19PMF attached to RRT DOPS, now at large, is the owner of the second rifle with S/No. 21173,” the statement read.

Igwe, according to the statement, left the rifle at his beat and escaped when he got information that his gang member, Sergeant Promise Ukwuoma, had been arrested.

The arrested suspects were said to have confessed to the crime, even as the police maintained that efforts were in top gear to ensure the arrest of the fleeing members of the gang.

When contacted, the State Police Public Relations Officer confirmed the arrest of the police sergeant and the Access Bank worker, but insisted that he would not make further comment until he got an approval to do so.

“I can confirm to you that the IGP Intelligence Response Team arrested the sergeant and the bank staff, but I cannot say anything further until we get an official approval to do so,” Omoni stressed.
