€1 Bread In UK Sold For ₦48,000 In Nigeria

1 pound bread in uk is 48,000 naira in Nigeria.

This useless classist madness in Nigeria where people assume that something being expensive is equal to luxury will be the end of us as a country.

A loaf of bread of £1 is being sold to my people for 48,000naira.

Foolishness.

The I beta pass my neighbor mentality. A demonic prevalent mentality in Nigeria despite religion playing a massive role in the society.

Thank God white people humble you people whenever you go to their country. You think you can go there and raise shoulder for them the way you do over here?

Only those who stole people's money will buy it for that amount. No sensible person who worked for his money will do that. Does the bread give long life and guarantee good health?

This is happening in Nigeria because there is no regulatory body to control prizes of items sold in the country.

1) air flight used to ship it everyday that’s one reason

2) second and most likely reason is customs Taxes imported bread a crazy amount to protect local businesses

48 is barely $40 some people might be used to this bread in uk before moving here ( Nigeria )

Expatriate, diplomats , rich kids who grew up in the uk to rich parents , uk women married rich Nigerians men. This bread can be a way to feel connected to their Home. it’s a specialty product

It’s definitely not for everyone . You have Chinese special shops , u have Indians too in Nigeria

When Nigeria was still good under PDP I know people who order pizza and curry from the uk twice a week

Nigerians are the only people in the world who actively import and praise british food.

See mentality, so it's cool to use subsidized FX to import pizza. What value does that to national economy.

Nigeria should continue borrowing money to finance nonsense like this? PDP is a waster Indeed
Re: €1 Bread In UK Sold For ₦48,000 In Nigeria by AntiChristian: 5:47am On Aug 16
That's importation cost plus duties and profit margin. See wetin mrvitalis write above? He make sense?

Then buy the ones baked in Nigeria. The price was high deliberately to encourage consumers buying the ones baked locally.

You don’t get it…it’s not about the bread but the reason behind the cost. For it to be on the shelf with that pricey tag , means someone is actually buying it.

If you are silly enough to desire UK bread, then it is apt that they charge you that much. You have to pay silly for a silly desire
Re: €1 Bread In UK Sold For ₦48,000 In Nigeria by KosiGee(m): 5:58am On Aug 16
That’s crazy. That bread at £1.69 is N3151:00

It’s not even up to N3,500:00

At N48,000:00 😳😳😳😳😳. That’s crazy.

Re: €1 Bread In UK Sold For ₦48,000 In Nigeria by simpleseyi: 6:09am On Aug 16
Very very good. Mentally unstable Nigerians most of whom have looted public funds think U.K. bread is better than Nigeria’s bread such that they now use scarce FIREX to import £1 bread and pay 48,000 for it. Whereas £1 is less than 2,000 Naira. Ask your brothers and sisters living in the U.K., they all travel long distances within U.K. to buy Agege bread made in U.K.

That’s not true.. it can last more than 7 days.
Re: €1 Bread In UK Sold For ₦48,000 In Nigeria by ARISHEM: 6:16am On Aug 16
£1 is equivalent to N1800. Tell me why will I buy this for N48,500. Who ever buys it should be in the list of EFCC radar.
Even if price was a mistake and meant to be N4850 it's not worth it. That bread will rot in that shelf.
