I was just walking to work when I saw a roadside akara vendor and decided to patronise her since it has been ages since I last had it.

When I ordered the #400 worth of Akara and got just 4 small-sized balls, it took a great deal of unprecedented self-control, calm, and composure for me to have accepted the package.

E be like say you been dey sleep since but you just wake up to reality now

All we do is talk and talk and complain and complain rant and rant.
We all know the problem is APC. What are we going to do about that except rant and rant?
If there is nothing, everybody should manage it like that and let's hear word.

It is becoming increasingly extremely dangerous to buy such things outside now considering the rate of inflation and the desire of these vendors to make profits. One can only imagine what will be used as alternative of the expensive ingredients to make those food.

Be careful out there, guys!

The president has made it clear he doesn't read social media, I doubt if he reads, listen or watch any media at all, Nigerians can cry a river, consolation for those who didn't vote for him.

E-diot! You sounded as if you got something extraordinarily cheap, but now, see your face.

I had a similar experience last week. Nothing beats cooking your own food these days, and stop eating snacks anyhow. Because, a little snack could eat dangerously into your daily budget... Just like this.

As if cooking your own meal is anyway cheaper.
