Price of goods and services is not that expensive in Nigeria, the issue is that majority of us are very poor.
A two bedroom flat apartment still goes around 350k annually in some part of Lagos State yet many of us will still go to mountain for prayer to be able to afford that.

In some countries they pay me monthly and they still pay with ease.

A good education will create wealth.

The first thing I will do is making education free and compulsory for every Nigerians. Both old and young must get access to quality education.

Quality education is the bedrock of every nation that dreams of greatness.

Nigeria is a country blessed with talent, resources, and resilience — yet it continues to struggle under the weight of bad leadership, corruption, and poor governance. From unreliable electricity to the rising cost of living, it sometimes feels like every sector is crying out for help.

Now imagine this: you suddenly become the President of Nigeria — but only for one week. You have full control to make key decisions, sign executive orders, and implement reforms. No bureaucracy, no political godfathers — just seven days to make a difference.

What would you fix first?

Would you focus on the economy, to bring down the price of food and fuel?
Would you tackle security, ensuring that citizens can travel freely without fear of bandits or kidnappers?
Or maybe you’d go straight to education, reviving schools, paying teachers well, and making universities work again?

Some Nigerians say they would start by cutting government salaries and reducing the cost of governance. Others believe the first step should be arresting corrupt politicians and recovering looted funds. A few even argue that constitutional reform is the only real solution to Nigeria’s endless cycle of problems.

Whatever your opinion, one thing is clear — most Nigerians know exactly what they want fixed; they just haven’t had the power to do it.

So, let’s hear from you
If you had just one week as Nigeria’s President, with total authority to act, what’s the first thing you’d change and why?

Pls, mention the few areas that rent 2bed for 350k.

I will boost the Agricultural sector, Mandate all the governors to establish manufacturing industries in their respective states and pass it into law that no one, including me should travel out for medical treatment until the hospital in the states are well equipped and functioning.
