This is what ask myself,
If the dollar is going down why are price still go up on a daily basis?

Greed

An average Nigerian is greedy and ready to extort everyone around him/her without blinking an eye.

Then government not being able to regulate prices/control ultra-capitalism

Nigeria economy is actually just "Anywhrre belle face"

No regulations. No price controls. Excessive greed.

We will need at least 3-4months before prices start dropping.. which will also be borne out of competition and not government regulation.

These 3 really annoys, sometimes I ask myself, Are these really difficult.
We can't even do price control in this country, it has gotten to this worse point.
I really hope we can get out of this situation & make things work.
Am still clinging onto a little hope.

It's achievable. That's one of the ways we can achieve balance and control greedy capitalist middlemen / retailers.

But Nigeria is a free market".

If only we can cap cement at say 3200. If you sell more, they lock up your shop!

If we have a govt controlled pricinh on granite supply. Iron supply, etc..

Let Govt. also control percentages paid to Engineers / contractors..

It will add a bit of stability to every industry.

I do not even believe he intended that anyone would assume so.

I believe “We are our own Problem” some greedy fellows benefits from the inflation hence the reason they're ready to create problems for whomever tries to solve the issue.

They even create fake scarcity.


We need a Lasting solution.

Imagine.

The only thing that dropped the price is COMPETITION.

if they had a agreed to sell for 10,000 despite importing for about 4,000... we won't have been able to do anything about it.

I’m not a fan of government intervention is business because it’s requires a responsible government for it to work and most are not especially not Nigeria. People will still take advantage of the system e.g Fuel subsidy, Fertilizer.

I bought 12.5kg gas for 9,000 yesterday. A 100% increase from 1 year ago.

Nigerians which way forward.
