you talked about how high the price of garri is and you still wrote this, 'What pains me most now is that Meat Pie and Egg roll is now #500 Naira per one'. Would someone that is hungry bother about meat pie?

People with Families, how are you coping?

Satchet Milk now 200/250 Naira, Nylon sugar now #100, what about Garri Ijebu cup?

What pains me most now is that Meat Pie and Egg roll is now #500 Naira per one... Lke how??

Until you people stop attributing the problem of the nation to a political party you won’t have any headway. 85% of APC members were once PDP members, the same Pdp that finished Nigeria , LP members are Aggreived PDP and ApGa former members. There has never been any govt that favored Nigerians, there is no how you want to sugar coat it. It’s a battle that is meant to be between masses and elites but your hate for individuals is making you feel it’s about party. Make una continue, the politicians will keep sharing themselves into different political parties since they know you only want to VOTE OUT and not VOTE IN

people are working hard and yet can't make ends meet and you are here supporting a clueless government

Must we use all our hard-earned money to buy only food?

Is the solution by continuous complaining or do something about the situation?
Nobody should complain or protest because there's nothing the incompetent government would do to alleviate their suffering
Re: How Are People Coping- Things Are So Expensive by traware(m): 12:44pm On Aug 26, 2024
Nigerians are kind of silly aren't we?
Come out of your homes and protest about these issues from August 1st to 10th 2024,we said no and hid in our homes when we saw Russian flags.
Did we all believe the issues the protest was supposed to be about would just disappear?
Please and please,all of us should keep quiet and enjoy our misery in peace since we are all too chicken sh.it to do anything about it.

It’s remarkable how Tinibu was able to surpass the worst imaginations of his opponents. Imagine mocking a person and saying that the person can’t score up to 40% to pass an exam, only for the person to score 0%.

Things are extremely rough due to unemployment and expensive food commodity. I don't even know how to survive this week
If employment improves, hunger will reduce.
When you pay a person 50,000 ..that person still goes ahead to give other people help by sharing 3k or 4k to other family members.

It may seem small but these improves situations.
Now if people don't have jobs, how do you want them to care for other people

That is exactly what is watering down most of the conversations here. The moment you make it about APC, you have politicized the issue and you would be naive and unserious to think it would go down well with those on the side of APC, and who unapologetically believe that we are facing the consequences of poor decisions of the past 30 to 60 years. Whether you agree with them or not is a totally different issue that will always destroy the main focus on any thread or conversation.

To those smart enough to read between the lines, the likes of Helinues post comments targeting their antagonists on the opposite side of the political divide. This issue should be about the good of Nigerians in general, and honest conversations about our way of life and how we can work through the current adversities among the majority. People should stop policising these conversations. It is not about APC, APC is not a bloodline. They are politicians from PDP and other parties that formed a new party, and above all, they are all Nigerians mostly trained in politics on the streets of Nigeria.

Shee na people weh get money dey patronise thos people that you mentioned?
Shee na person weh don chop beleful go sew clothes and make hair?
It's still the same people earning salaries that will patronise them.
It's tough all round, though some places better pass the others.

Education should be blamed in the current Nigeria. Some people believe because they are educated, they can't do some work ..

Hahaha all those hairstylist , fashion designers , some of them are earning far reasonable than someone working in the office.

People should stop queuing behind those who already created their own path, create yours too.

But remember, nothing like an overnight fortune, you must have done something before such happen, only few lucky ones got fortune overnight
