Very interesting times now!

If you have access to earning in foreign hard currencies or residual(Side) income even if it's just $100 monthly you'll not be too worried with the recent inconvenient hike in commodity prices in Nigeria.

Though a very painful and unfortunate hardship stare direct to the faces of struggling Nigeria citizens no thanks to the present CLUELESS Leadership /Administrators.
The present leadership have shown their insensitive wicked practices in so many forms but the good thing about earning online is that they can't control world economy with their archaic policies reason persons like us still enjoy earning online.
If you have access to internet + PC/Phone and you ain't earning even $5 daily then it's your own undoing.

Abia State ₦20 for sachet while a bag goes for ₦200


Take away pack which is free before is now ₦50 for the disposable one while the plastic goes for ₦150
I support the fee on takeaway packs and disposables. They are consisting a nuisance in drainage systems.

Come with your own plate or use a plate to be served.

He is correct. It's so in all of Enugu. I was there last month.

That city cost me 11k a day to stay in.
I stayed in a hotel though... 8 days.

Never seen a city so ridiculously expensive. Not even Abuja

Uncle calm down... It's not retailers and store owners that are fixing the price... I know a retailer who buys pure water @ 130 from the company and sells at 150. The manufacturers sells to them at a costly price so they have to also increase the price they give to consumers so as to get their required profit.






Tombrown3:
I was told the increase was because naija government tax them a lot. So we the final consumer has to pay the price. Nigeria will never better. I've stopped drinking pure water for past 2 weeks now sha.

the problem is we still buy whatever that increases over night and for the fact we patronise this product regardless of how mush is sells, other things will still increase!

Retailers will always want to make more gains! pure water has an expiration date, if we could swallow our pride and source for other ways of drinking water without paying 20naira for 2 months believe me they will all rethink this shit by the time 20bags of pure water lie in your shop for 2 weeks without selling one bag, they will reconsider. But no, naija will always buy.


I started to boil water and fill in a gallon for drinking, (which is even healthier) and my friend started laughing and calling me names, that I should just add the money and buy it instead of this, I gave him the lesson if his life! believe me if pure water is sold 100naira a sachet I can still afford to buy! But does is make it right?


MTN had issues with banks last month and immediately MTN card was sold 110naira, I can bet my ass, retailers are still selling MTN card that price till date!

sometimes I hardly know who to blame,the retailers or producers or the government.

#Insideunn#
This stuff is only happening inside school (UNN) outside school, a bag is still #130-#150 and #10 per satchet, school canteens are just exploiting students for no reason, they add extra 30,50-100% on commodities just to make more profit.....

For more than a year now. I drink mostly borehole water and have never fallen sick. Until we all learn to produce some things ourselves the people selling them will not stop exploiting us.
Purify your water yourself for your household. And you will be sure it is safe to drink.
Many of the so called pure water companies put unpurified borehole water in satchets and bottles. What then makes it different from your borehole water at home.

Learn to purify your own water for consumption.

10 naira where I am. Only people staying in the "yeast" are saying pure water is sold for 20 naira just to give the government a bad name. We are familiar with their childish schemes. How come things are that expensive over there? You people need to change your ways and start loving yourselves. Money is not the alpha and omega of the universe. Una too like to cheat unaselves because of money. Twale for them.
Shay na east Ikorodu dey for Nigeria Abi? Sometimes I really don't junderstand what is wrong with some of u Nigerians... Is this how the Nigeria will be great, when most of u see evil befallen the country and u guys refuse to speak against it, all because of what u guys are benefiting from it.

We are still saying same thing bro.

Now imagine the retailers refusing to by pure water from the manufacturers cause of high prices for a week. Now imagine 20 retailers doing same rejection. The manufacturers will run out customers! and you know what that mean, when your products are not being shipped cause of 50naira increase?

Like I said before, I don't actually know who to blame, but all in all, we the final consumers shouldn't be forced to pay this price!

Please how do you purify your water? I have borehole water I stay and I want to know if all I have to do is just boil it and drink.

The simplest way to purify water is by boiling and sieving (I don't know if I got the spelling right)

Buy a yard of white cloth (cotton) wash dry and keep clean.

Boil your water to the boiling point. Allow it to cool off.

Then tie the cloth on a clean bowl and pour the water into it. Once it's done your water is ready for drinking.

Note:
The sieving is to be dead sure it's void of particles oo. Nothing stops you from drinking it after boiling without sieving.


Another way is to use chemicals (chlorine etc.) You can google for that. But me, I don't like the use of chemicals for water treatment. ( Funny enough, most pure water companies use it)

We just buy water and start to drink believing once it is packaged it is safe for drinking. Don't be surprised when you hear that some don't even have boreholes. They use Well water grin and as long it's in satchets and bottles it is pure.

As for me I fetch directly from my borehole before the water enters the tank. You can get a plumber to fix a tap directly from the riser pipe close to the borehole well head. The water quality of my borehole is very good, I'm a Hydrogeologist, carried out the quality test myself

Igbos are naturally greedy when it comes to prices of essential commodities. How can you be selling a bag of pure water for 150 and above in this Buhari next level regime? Something that people will come back in two days to buy!
Here in Abuja, we still buy pure water for 120 per bag
