That you gave it context at all showed inconsiderate and wickedness.
A man that supposed to hide under their usual plot of being quoted out of context. If in that your rural context that whole amount is used to cook a single pot of soup won't you look at it with disdain?
These are the people cooking fake statistics and false narrative to emilokan because of their belly instead of saying it as it is.

For people like this Tope Fasua who just open their mouth without first engaging their Brain, it is simple: Give him the same #10,000 and let him live entirely on it for One Month and then let us check his weight afterwards. grin

Yes, you can feed for several days with 10k.
I was just in Lagos last week.
I bought 3 frozen Titus fish for 5k, I even cooked vegetables, all for less than 10k
I just have a taste for that fish; I have not had it in a while, and I read online that it's actually the best fish to eat. Hence, I decided to send someone to get it for me.

A family in a rural setting could have easily bout those fish, cook it, and eaten rice and Eba for days.

Exactly!
They cook Nonsense Statistics and feed the President with it, making him believe he is doing well when in reality, he is collapsing the Economy and killing Nigerians with Poverty.

A 1Liter Bottle of Oil in any rural community is between #2500 and #3000.
Paint of Garri, is over #1,500
Derica of Beans is #2,500
Meat is costlier in the Rural Setting, than even in Town.
Tope wont buy Pepper (Tomatoes, Onion, Rodo, Dawa/Sombo, Tatashe, if he even knows what these are?), to cook a Pot of Stew and those costs over #2,000 for one pot of Stew.

Now, how long will it take that brainless Tope Fasua, to finish the above?
One Week?, Ten days?

Stop lying!
One piece of Titus, very slim, is #2,500 at the minimum.
If you already spent #5K on fish, what about Pepper, what about Garri, what about Cooking Oil, what about Gas (or they should remove their door and use it as firewood, because it is a rural setting?)
Now, imagine a FAMILY (Father, Mother, even if it just Two Children), how many days will this last them? huh

....and he said #10,000 would last A FAMILY for ONE MONTH, not three days!

The masses are foolish most of the times. These criminals in power will expect from the masses what they cant practise. Do u blame them? i wrote an interesting article on this. I asked why should the masses pay for what was caused by politicians and yet the politicians arent feeling the heat?
Like why?
Oh, we cant pay subsidy on fuel becus Nigeria is broke. Who made Nigeria broke? Politicians. Same politicians will get free fuel from tax payers money, So, tax payers will suffer. Govt officials get everything for free, health care, fueling, cars, houses, etc. Nothing is such a big scam than govt and it is crazy that the masses cant see through this. Honestly, humans arent as smart as we assume. Most humans are actually less intelligent than lower animals.
https://www.nairaland.com/8655497/why-must-masses-suffer-crimes
That is the article. The politicians should actually start the managment because they created it.
They should strt by cutting down their salaries and packages which is crazy. These guys will ruine our educational system, loot our money, then use the money to send their kids to developed world fro education, then post their graduation on social media to rub it on our faces. Then expect me to cut down my cost, pay heavy tax, while they ride on convoy, enjoy three square meal, then ask me to eat less. I hate everything about Nigeria. The politicians are evil. Wicked and heartless. I know how much I earn, good but I know how hard I struggle, like I have nothing left at the end of the year but this wicked govt wants me to pay up to 25 percent of my income as tax. From where? The money is not even enough. How do I pay it? where from?
20m per year is rubbish income now, u will barely survive with it and cant live quality life. They want u to take ur kids to lower standard school so u can pay tax while they send their kids to higher schools. If half humans see govt the way I see them, these id%ots wont have the guts to do the dirty shit they do. If they want us to suffer now and enjoy later, they should suffer with us. Period.

https://www.nairaland.com/8668324/n10000-feed-modest-family-several#139350878

The Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Economic Affairs, Tope Fasua, has clarified his controversial statement suggesting that N10,000 could feed a family for several days.

Fasua said he actually referred to “a person” and not a family.

He made the clarification in a statement posted on his Facebook page on Sunday, following criticism over a viral clip from his interaction with Kay’s Hikers Club in Abuja on May 5, 2026.

The presidential aide said the remark was made in the context of rural Nigeria and was immediately corrected during the session.

“My attention has been drawn to the viral two-second clip of my interaction with Kay’s Hikers Club held on May 5, 2026, at The Destination, Abuja, wherein I stated that N10,000 is enough to ‘feed a modest family for several days’.

“There is a need to clarify that I meant to say ‘person’, and not ‘family’, and we were speaking at that point in the context of rural Nigeria.

“I immediately clarified my statement right there and then and emphasised to the audience the need for serious personal financial management in the context of global hardships,” he said.

Fasua said the engagement with the group, made up mostly of young Nigerians, lasted over two hours and focused on the country’s economic reforms, taxation policies and opportunities within Nigeria despite prevailing economic challenges.

According to him, some participants were confrontational during the discussion, but he considered the outing necessary to encourage direct engagement between government officials and citizens.

“Still, I believe it was an important outing, such that should be encouraged between government appointees and citizens — especially Gen Zs,” he stated.

He added that discussions during the session touched on issues such as the challenges facing foreign retail chains and the growth of Nigerian-owned businesses.

“In fact, the first salvo of questions was around the issue of Shoprite’s challenges, when I promptly brought up the bustling alternatives like Ebeano, Sahad, JustRite, HyperCity, Bokku, Market Square and other Nigerian brands,” he said.

Fasua also criticised what he described as sensational reporting and selective use of clips on social media, saying comments made during lengthy discussions were often taken out of context.

“We live in a world where people judge by headlines. We also live in a world where the media cleverly maxes out their popularity with sensational headlines and where the selectivity of reportage can put people in awkward situations,” he said.

The presidential aide maintained that despite Nigeria’s challenges, young people should remain optimistic about the country rather than seeking opportunities abroad.

“I will continue to inform the youths of Nigeria that statistically, they are better off building their nation than running abroad to already developed nations where they are often faced with daunting challenges and hurdles,” Fasua added.

Indeed a rural context....
It will not be hard if he can mentions the name of that rural area now that, the context of a family is an individual and not a group of persons.

I don't know what to say about what you said sir. Perhaps you were being sarcastic!

I drove my wife to a nearby market around Idimu (Pipeline) here in Lagos yesterday and she wanted to buy Titus fish. She eventually didn't because she complained that a medium sized Titus fish is being sold between 5-6k. She had to buy another cheaper type.

If you claim to have bought 3 frozen Titus fish for 5k, maybe you are mistaking Titus fish for another cheaper type, or you bought the fish around a river-side market.

For an average market in Lagos, you won't find 3 pieces of Titus fish being sold for 5k.

In my opinion, the man must have been told that his statement was not in touch with current reality and could potentially demarket his principal further in the build up to the coming election, so he quickly fashioned an excuse!

When you have your kids, feed them rice and eba everyday from day one like you claim. Let them take eba and rice to school as they grow into kwashiorkor. On their birthdays, Easter, xmas, etc feed them eba and rice too. Tell your parents to stop eating other foods except rice and eba since it’s your craving, elesin
