The last set of people who still enjoyed Nija small are those born in the early 1980s
If you didn't use coins,you didn't enjoy Nija at all.
I remember when I could eat with #5�
Amongst everything I deemed possible that could happen to Nija I never envisaged a time when we would buy garri #500 per derica undecided

That is about 31yrs ago, right?
Keep your own today and let your children/grand-children also comment on it in the next 30 years, I am sure that your children/grand children will then claim that you enjoyed during your own time too

Our parents enjoyed a good life and that was one of the reason a lot them had the opportunity to build one or two houses

I remember when my dad was building our apartment in 2002, we bought cement for 1600, despite the fact that he was not earning enough, he still saved the money that enable him to build an apartment for himself.

Things have change in our own tenure, all we have left is increasing of price every single day,........ you will buy something today, the next day when you get to market, the price is rise

For your do build a 3bedroom apartment now, you will need up to 50bags of cement 50x4200 is almost 210,000 thousand naira

if you ever ask me if Nigeria will go back to those days of cement of 80naira

My Answer is HELL NO, Probably in my dream, even this days people don't dream about Nigeria going back to those days, they dream about the next days

Industries, Markets, Warehouses and Factories sustain a nation.
Just imagine RCCG turning all these their mushroom worship centers across Nigeria into mini factories. To become productive.
Anyway, I won't blame them too. Wia is power?
Again, most Nigerians cherish what they are being given, more than what I put up there.
It's easier for a FACTORY to shut down in Nigeria than a Church or Mosque.

The Americas, Europe never joke with such.
In Fact, during COVID, small shops got up to $5000 dollars each as a boaster. Bigger shops got meaty incentives.

Lol, the wickedness in Nigerian rulers ehn, the people who enjoyed this good economy are those ruling us now, but they can't give us just a taste of what they enjoyed..


Is only Nigeria someone(Atiku and Tinubu) will offer a solution (buhari and osinbanjo) to a problem, and then turnaround after 8 years to say they are the real solution to the problem..

No hope for ordinary Nigerians

How much was basic salary? I want to check something.

Edith: So minimum wage was 3,000 naira per month and that’s 3% of minimum wage.
Today’s minimum wage is 30,000 and a bag of cement is 4,000 and that’s 13% of minimum wage.
So we can say that cement was 4 times cheaper and affordable in 1991 than it is today.

To match 1991’s naira purchasing power, cement have to sell below 1,000 naira a bag. Hmmm.

Just see the damage that APC/PDP has done to Nigeria in the past 23 years! shocked

If you want to fix things, vote out PDP/APC in 2023

Vote for a man who believes that Naira should be saved.

Vote for Peter Obi.

88 naira was huge money then. That's like almost a100 naira which is equivalent to today's 10k if not more.

1989 was when the price really went up, I remembered we started building one of our houses with #4.50k per bag in February that year, then it moved to #20 and then #38 or #40. In May of 1989 it was #38. The price went up really high that year

By 1991 it was already #80
