The truth is many women don't know how to be creative with the little they have. Many think good food is just about putting plenty meat in soup, but in reality you can creatively have a better meal for 5k than 20k if you sabi cook.
Home management and economics is a very important skill especially in this period that we find ourselves.

All items were listed there.


I m just a sensible woman that knows how to manage funds and run the home.
Why you even bother to reply na...

If the prices of the items listed are false, I for follow flog you. But you're on point.

Some people no wan live with the reality of matters and overdo pass their income level that's why many would find it had to go past their current level unless they realize and know their situation and live in it and with it, while planning to scale up..

You'd imagine someone with a monthly income of less than 300k living in an apartment of over 600k... After transport and food for the month, wetin wan remain? People wey dey stay for face me I face you no be human being?

Pastor Olumide spoke extensively on this. Even sending ya children to very expensive schools never guarantees anything.

So knowing ya income, live according to ya means and plan to scale with what you can salvage from the little you earn. That's the wisest thing to do.

Poor man dey find chicken wey e wan chop, apart from raising ya own, buying that bird twice a month sef go tell on ya meager earnings.

Abegi 🤧

My sis visited me complaining her husband gave her 5k to prepare food that it's too meagre.

I told her to manage it and whip any meal together so her kids can see what to eat when they return from school...madam kept insisting that the money won't go anywhere.


A family of 4......So in order to teach her how to manage with her husband for the time being since he's a good man....make she nor use her hands push him outside.

I told her to give me the money so I would cook the meal for her.then she can take it home.
I insisted on buying everything from outside.

She said there's no way I can cook with less than 5k.

She was even teasing me that we should use one of my bird join the experiment(lolz)

Here are the things I bought from the market
Pepper #200
Redoil 300
Melon 450
Maggi #100
Sachet tomato 150
Dried tilapia fish #500
Okpehi 200
A cup of garri 100(for experimental purposes)
Spaghetti #1000
Onions #100
Nawao...
How do 5 or more persons feed with one spaghetti pack?

Assuming you bought the vegetables, it will be more than that

Its advisable n cheaper to buy in bulk. Stop cheating yourself buying 3 cubes of maggi etc

Are you serious like there is no ground pepper sold for #200.Bro are you living in Uganda?
Well in naija here.there is #200 naira ground pepper.even #100 naira own dey.



People that are LEGITIMATELY working to earn money knows there is grounded pepper sold at #100.



What if my house is with the proximity of the market?
So you didnt even make use of anything fresh. grounded pepper with one shachel of tomatoes to share between egusi soup and spaghetti in your mind you are doing economics without knowing you have been thrown into poverty by Tinubu.
This isnt food this is mixture, you are just surviving not living.

Nobody is arguing with you, but whatever you are doing, you know in your mind.

If you like, say you cooked for an entire village with 2k and plucked beef 🍖 and fish 🐟 from the tree 🌴, no wahala.

On the contrary, that food is okay. The amount of protein may be low, but not completely absent. Nobody prays for this kind of situation, but in the event that it happens, op has proved to us that we can think outside the box and be prudent with the little we have.
Re: How I Proved My Sister Wrong By Cooking With 3,100 Naira. by MrDIY: 10:35pm On May 26
That food is just for one person or highest two if they want to manage, now imagine a family of 3 or 4 earning 150k or below monthly, I personally spend 9k currently with a family of 4, and we’re just managing, I earn just under 150k if you do the math you’ll ask me how do I survive, I’ll tell you,I survive from loan to loan, all thanks to Tinubu
cyberbro:
I highly suspect this account is being sponsored by the current government to influence public opinion and convince people that things are cheap whereas, it's not actually so.

This is just my thought, especially looking at the previous posts of this user. 'How to cook with 1 kobo and 2 kobo', na wetin full him profile.

My brother, I left Nigeria not too long ago, before then, I was in debt to the tune of about N1m to various loan apps. It was GOD who helped me to repay the loan. I totally understand what Nigerians are passing through, cos I experienced it personally.

To be honest, APC government failed woefully and haven't lived up to expectations at all. It is well with Nigeria, that's all I have to say.

The rest of the soup I had to package it for her to take home to her kids.
Life no hard...na you wan use beef/chicken/icefish cook.

We should learn how to improvise and think outside the box.

The chicken she wanted me to use to do the experiment and I nor gree.
Market price for this chicken is pegged @17k.
Apc supporters these days are being too stingy to their own hunger and stomach infrastructures! Oga try add proteins to your food. Una renewed hopelessness never start, 2.0 is coming up. You won't see crayfish and maggi to add in the next one. Only salt to taste 😂

@op: on a lighter note, her husband gave her 5k, you spent 3k what happened to the 2k, or is it 1900k balance, did she issue him a refund or you charged consulting fee, while she pocket the rest? 😀
At the post above, you mention, all the above quantitative aspects which looks good on paper or on the pages of an online forum, however, can these be tracked or measured in the same way qualitatively? If with all the above, majority still have to manage, cutting their expenses, for feeding here and there (in this case, less than U$D4) then your justifications for this government, matter of fact, it's predecessors and speculatively, any incoming one after this, is massively misguided.

Now, the reasons for every Nigerian Government's historic, present failure is the same: before ascension, they campaign extensively, criticize the incumbent, run from north to south portraying why your candidature would be better than the one "in power", embark on media spinning of feeding/serving/seating with the masses etc, only to get there, and realize, one does not have a clue about running the government, especially from a bottom-up, people-development approach, and so they take the easy way out, that is, to spend more money, setting up institutions(like the ones you listed) that have no impact on the welfare of yhe common people. While also, trying to save face, they run to supposed "developed countries" for 'expert' knowledge on how to be like Oyinbo countries. Sadly, so called "experts" (IMF, World Bank, WHO, Gates Foundation, USA, Britain, France, China, Russia etc) our politicians run to, will not admit, that their systems are no longer working, rather they offer us policies, and funding for stuff they know no longer works, will not work for us, even policies they have not tried, for us to experiment, so they can learn from the problems caused, what to do and what not to do.

In concluding, no Nigerian Leader (who on the ascension of office, the first thing he/she does in the first 24 months, keeps going abroad, courting Western alliances) will ever have any progress come to the masses eventually. If in doubt, look at all leaders since 99, the current one, being a prime example, who's major ambition is to Westernize Nigeria (Taxing everything, NIN etc) to the extent that there is nothing indigenously organic and governance sustaining; our traditional systems are being massively truncated, the masses are so hungry and despondent, we are now feeding on ourselves (kidnapping, violence, no value for human life etc). One unanimous or is it majority fact is THIS GOVERNMENT HAS NOT MADE LIFE EASIER FOR ANYBODY. Shikena
