It's not a lie that things are freaking expensive in the country at the moment. If it were to be that things are just expensive and people have enough money to afford basic amenities that would have been better, unfortunately, that's not the case.

To the extent that, the majority of us cannot conveniently eat twice per day. In the current economy, if you can afford two meals per day sef, you are a rich person, no cap.

The painful thing is that despite all these hardships, nothing seems to be in place to relieve us of this calamitous situation we found ourselves in.

However, there is hope!!

But before I talk about hope, we all need to adjust our mindset. There is an adage that says "If you say everything is doomed and there is no hope, you are right" and "If you say again that despite all the bad news, I will succeed, you will".

No matter how bad you are feeling, your own is not the worst! Some people have it more worst than you

Our hope is the internet! I once read a book that says, "the biggest beneficiary of the internet are third world countries". And this is true 100%.

Many people from third countries have gone to achieve great things because they leverage the opportunity the internet gave them. People have traveled abroad, win scholarships to study abroad without paying a dime, been hired by foreign clients, build projects for foreign clients, work at big multinational companies, sign international endorsement deals, become world-renowned athletes, and many more.

Yes, you will say it is not easy to achieve. Of course not! Which one is now easy? To not have money to take care of yourself, is this easy? or to not have resources to cater for your loved ones either young or old? or to complain about how bad everything has become?

See, you have to choose which one of the "is not easy" you want. To keep complaining about the status quo and do nothing OR to keep trying things until you get the result you wanted?

Here is my own saving grace thus far, I work with foreign clients from the comfort of anywhere I decided to work using my smartphone. If you are serious about turning things around for yourself, you will not joke with how earning as little as $500 per project can turn things around for you.

I sat down one fateful day and erase the sweet lie away from my head. What is the sweet lie? That the government, my rich uncles or family member will help me out of my misery. I pity people that are yet to wake up from that dream

I took matters into my own hands and thank God for how far I have come.

Attached is my earning for this month's project with one of my clients.

I'm sure it is no more a secret that the internet is a goldmine.

Put your act together and dig out your own gold. And don't be like some people that want to do everything all by themselves. There are secrets to making cash online and secrets are never thrown into the open.

This is how I have been surviving and I believe you too can use this to turn things around for yourself

It's been quite difficult o, but I've learnt and mastered some tricks which I will share.

1. I have 3 children, all under 10 so what I do now is to buy cereals, milk and milo in paint bucket. A paint of milk is 7500 and can last for 2 months compare that to the tin or sachet and you'll note a massive difference (its factory produced so the quality is the same as the one you see in stores)
2. Cook in bulk to reduce gas cost and store in small freezer plastic bags. Thank God power has been quite constant
3. Next term, I plan to change the kids school fees to one closer to our house to cut off school bus fees. I've done my due diligence and I have found one that has exceelnt standard albeit more expensive than their current school
4. No more going out unnecessarily. Work, home, run errands, church finish. Better to call people to stay in touch, rather than have them turn up suddenly on top say they wan greet una.
5. Other things sha

Which paint bucket do you mean. Please tell me it's the first one, the white one.

I'm angry

What's the basic asking price for ransom in your locality?

Lol, your mindset is that the North is same, for the record I am in North Central. Leaving Enugu State back to Akwanga is one of the best decision I have ever made.

I really don't need to convince anyone. This is a place where an average Nigerian can live comfortably if you have what you do ; remote job, a business, etc.

Do search for Nasarawa State on Google yourself, check for kidnapping news and see how many have occurred.

I sure know it's not same everywhere, but you can't rule out the possibility of it happening especially while on transit to your preferred destination considering the level of insecurities now in the country.

And I am seriously considering leaving Lagos, though I am not tech savvy and if I want to go into business which can you advice one to do in such place, and how did you get to know Akwanga. You know Google will not give all necessary details, I an still weighing my options of going back to where I served or settle in neigbouring Ogun State... These jobs are not encouraging before I exhaust my savings to keep up.

Dust you PVC and make sure you are obidient and useful. I told folks supporting Buhari in 2015 that this guy has nothing to offer, they called me all sort of names, some foolish youth even told me they would vote for him even if he presents nepa bill as certificate. Today the chicken has come home to roost.

Nobody is calling me TANIOD again because men don collect hunger wotowoto. Make the mistake of 2015 and 2019 again in 2023 and continue collecting.

As for me and my household, God is sustaining us and we will never see shame.

God no go shame us.

The same way PO has nothing to offer

Economy crisis is a global menace. It's a global challenge and not peculiar to just Nigeria. It surges almost every part of the world. Nigeria and some other developing nations will only feel it more due to economy and bad government policy

No be you dey defend Buhari government? A total failure that brought hardship on u.

Hunger never wire you reach. Continue.

I served in same Akwanga, have been there almost 2 years. I am a native of Enugu State. I understand your point in the risk of traveling, it's every where. Personally, I don't fancy rushing home for anything.

I am into agrbusiness I own a sweet potato farm and offer soil management services for commercial farmers (I am a graduate of soil science) and Nasarawa State is an agro state, I also teach in a private school. If I want to take time off to relax I travel to nearby Markudi (I have a relative there).

Enugu is expensive and I had nothing doing then, I learnt graphic design but the market seem saturated. Where I stay, there are a lot of business opportunities if you wish to venture into business. Business works with location as a factor. As for rent, you can get a good self contained at ₦40,000, single room at ₦25-30k

Of course, there are a lot of security hullabaloo in the country, but it's not a reason to give ourselves tension and not push for what we want. No be today security wahala start nah.

If possible just leave Nigeria for us, we're hell bent voting Tinubu.

Even with that,scammers & 419 ev'rywhere to milk u dry of ur little income. Then comes wicked chronic debtors who want ur hustling business to colapse. Then family members calling u 4 help every now & then. Plus beggars who come 2 ask u 4 their own share. On top evrytin,sum lazy girls go come ask u to buy them recharge cards. Wait-o,how much u dey earn self 4 dis contry? The tin tire me!

Bro, this one na correct question, many things to ve considered about living in other part of our current Nigerian security situation.

Bro, just like you have robbers, cultists and ritualists down south but you are still alive ( glory be to God). There are also bandits and kidnappers up north but na God dey save him children.
Believe me there are alot of southerners up here who are still going about their normal day to day life without the slightest fear.
Bro, sometimes I consider myself lucky to be living in the northern part of the country.

Apart from the north, I don't think there's any place in nigeria that me and my four younger siblings would be able to survive on less than 50k a day, still eating three square meals. Even if I decide to get married now and give birth , despite the prevailing economic challenges, I would still find a way to carry everyone along quite comfortably in our late parent's house,

By the way, we are orphans and my younger ones are still tender. Twice, I have been asked to come over to Lagos and ogun by friends for a better job but I declined as the salary that was promised was not more than a 100k.
If it were only me, I would have jumped on the offer but I fear that after removing the cost of transportation, feeding and other costs, there wouldn't be enough money left to send to my younger siblings in kano state.

Although, I still wish to relocate to the southern part of the country if God expands my sustenance. I just love and admire the can -do- spirit of the folks down there. I want to be among the folks thst are moving boldly forward. Here in the north is quite boring for an ambitious graduate like me who's surrounded by illiterates and fanatics who always resign everything to fate rather than striving to improve themselves and their environment. Their mentality of views of life is so achaic and ridiculous. Sometimes I can't help thinking that my mates in the south are already way ahead of me by virtue of their environment.

Seriously, if one does not have a sure plug to stay with in Lagos there is no point coming only to end up barely surviving there except you have a well laid out plan or a good mouth watering offer or at best above average pay. House rent alone is consuming large portion of one's income, transport and now high cost of foodstuffs.

For me, I will keep my options open for now, my issue is just the language barrier and knowing someone. All the best for us and our expectations.
