How Are Nigerians Surviving? by OriOko88(op): 6:57pm On Jul 04, 2024
I just got paid my salary today,. So I dashed to the market to buy some food stuffs before the meagre money got exhausted. What I met in the market was just outrageous and inexplicable. Things are so so expensive,infact its now unbearable.

5kg of semo is now 13k
A congo of white beans,3,300
Brown beans, 4000
Grade A beans(oloyin) 4500
Garri. 1400 a congo.
5 pieces of pepper. 400
Rice. 2800
Titus fish. 1500
Infact I was standing at the same spot in the market for close to 30mins thinking how I will spend the 40k I took along. I had to settle for two Congos of white beans,a congo of rice,3 cups of gaari, 2kg of semovita, 1k pepper,350naira pack of maggi.(that one also shocked me. It used to be 150.)and 3k titus fish. Wanted to buy Milo,the woman said 4500. I shock.

People were just lamenting everywhere in the market today, even I ranted inside the brt.

The inflation is just too much,infact it has gone above the ceiling. Nigerians are rt now the most enduring citizens in the world rt now. Price of commodity increases every two days. No wonder many foreign companies are leaving. It's just unbearable. Shey na like this we go dey. Lord show us the way embarassed embarassed embarassed embarassed

If I start explaining my complaint now, I won't finish until the end of this month. The painful thing is that no one cares about your complaint. You'll go to the market with 50k and come back with half a sack of goods, as if you didn't buy anything

The hardship never reach my side and na baba God handwork. If the hunger reach my side, I'll just throw in the towel and leave this hellhole. I once got an European visa and didn't use it so I can get it again if I want to. For now, business is going on fine and man is still enjoying life small. Otito diri Jesu.

Best for Nigerians to protest instead of complaining on social media all the time.

It means the situation is seriously favoring you and your family.

Bia nwoke, How exactly are you relocating to Europe on a tourist visa. Nigerians sometimes conflate visit and Settlement/PR visa.

You are not wrong. The situation is somehow favoring me. I'm transferring the hardship to clients by raising the cost of my services and I kind of have steady clients. This is something salary earners can't do. As for the visa, I changed my mind, didn't want to dump everything that work for me here to the unknown in Europe. Are you seriously asking how I will stay over there permanently with tourist visa. Those ones that marry white women for green cards, are they from Jupiter?

I'll rather do that than go through what I see some people go through now. I recently advised an acquaintance to japa and that I will buy him flght ticket if he is able to get a visa. The country is hard now so any which way na way as long as we don't commit serious crime.
