A thousand naira is equivalent to 74 cents,she should show us how many things that can get her in America.....that 1k will get you a derica of rice or beans or garri enough to feed a family of 5 with some change......4 packs of noodles that can feed 2 people,can get you a plate of lunch,2.5 gb of data to you for 2 days with some change

Half a kilo of cooking gas is less than 1k and can keep a family of 5 for 2 days or more,if not for trump 1k would have gotten you a loter of petrol with some change......she should come tell us how much 74cents can get you in her country.

I have similar view. The black man wasn't well colonized. South Africa with longer colonial history seems best in Africa. The so-called nationalists were jostling for personal positions left by the departing colonialist. That indeed was 90% of the motivation. There was no real love for country. What followed next was indescribable. From one country to another - corruption, mindless looting, coups and counter coups. And here we are today. Nowhere.

You dey mind them? Most of the people saying the N1,000 is valueless don't know what's happening beyond Nigeria. Can anyone feed comfortable with either $1 or £1 abroad? And ordinarily, N1,000 will feed a man on the street at any Buka. Quote me.
If you understand what the lady meant...you won't be typing crap...Your highest currency is 74 cents in value to the dollars ...why didn't you compare the value of 1000 naira to 1000 dollars ...infact compare 1000 naira to the highest currency in dollars 100 dollars...what did you get ?...

Dollar and Pounds equivalent of N1000 is actually 0.7USD and 0.5GBP respectively.

While his argument is flawed, he should be understood correctly.
What then would be or would you say is the equivalent of our 1 naira which is still legal in Nigeria😁😁

It's idiots like you that will carry ₦1000 to roadside sellers and buy ₦300 akara, ₦500 bread and start shouting for your change, then come online to say ₦1000 cannot buy anything in Nigeria. Should all of us start peddling lies because we're unhappy with the government?

Democracy is the worst thing that happened to Nigeria. It has become synonymous with impunity. One cannot help reminisce in nostalgia the discipline during military era. The unleashed vultures have even convinced many morons that worst democracy is better than best military rule. And those obligate morons are quick to vomit this thrashy ideology.

Re: Foreign Lady Shocked By ₦1000 Value In Nigeria (Photos/Video) by DesireV: 10:06am On Apr 25
Reference:
My solution. We need foreign management of our economy. We need apolitical, unbiased, qualitative leadership in our central bank and Ministry of Finance to guide government decision making particularly how we handle our finances. Because the people have reformed to a large degree. The problem remains the government and it's unending mismanagement, waste, corruption and visionlessness. We need foreigners in charge for a season to clean up. We need a mirror to tell us the truth.
I agree with your submissions except this solution. Can you kindly tell me one developed country today with foreign economy management? No country can grow except her people are ready to grow it. It is Nigerians that will make Nigeria work. Why will a foreigner be interested in making Nigeria work? If anything, they stand to gain from a shitty Nigeria. So, die that idea of a foreign management of the economy.
Secondly, economy management is political. CBN handles monetary while Finance ministry that handles fiscal aspect of the economy. The head of government decides who head these two.
Government policies, body language, and all affect the economy. It's not apolitical anywhere on this planet.

What we need is good, sincere, and patriotic political leaders who put the people and the country first.

This is a very senseless comparison.

Besides, if "Beer" is the benchmark, why have y'all been complaining about Obi building a brewery in Anambra as a governor?

Talking about a 3weeks ban like we breath in Nairaland?

Why not make the ban permanent Almighty Helinues?

See how you shameless see how $1 should be N1360 as a normal thing?
What can $1 get you in the US, and what can N1 get you in Nigeria? That should be the question we should be asking.
