Nigerians are addicted to charging any outrageous price that the looters can bear leaving middle class if there is anymore and the working class crying.

Even worse they justify the obscene greed with high cost of labor, taxes, power, Agbero, bad road etc and dare you to walk away if you cannot pay. Knowing full well they pay their workers peanuts.

After buying and eating 50k rice at expensive restaurants, they used the hungry poor man to complain about the cost of food and blame Government, import cost, protect their exotic taste.

Until we learn how to protest against individual greed and profits that no other market in Africa can bear, everything would be outrageously expensive because there those money miss road that will pay!

Meanwhile, go across the borders where they sell everything cheaper.

Nothing like individual greed here.

You can't sell below your cost price.

Yes there are very very expensive locations but when the cheapest becomes expensive what do the poor do?

that's a big lie as far as the Nigerian situation is considered, many sellers are so greedy that they are ready to make x10 from just one market.

See ehn, I have stopped blaming our leaders cos Nigerians themselves are wicked.

Me n my guys were traveling the other day n two people were pressed, we entered filling station to use the rest. The attendant that held the key told us point blank that it's 500 per person n even the manager said same thing....we had to pay.


Na those kind of people u wan defend?

Some Nigerians even believe if the gain never x3 they ain't comfortable

So people started being greedy in 2023 or 2015 ?

The only reason you think Tinubu will win is through rigging and intimidation. That’s the only thing you’re banking on. Nothing else, not based what he has achieved as President. That’s a lot of arrogance.

When he is kicked out next year you all will feel very powerless, and perhaps learn some lessons that no single person can run politics in Nigeria with such arrogance.

This guy has never seen any outrageous profit he doesn't like and advocate for. He backed any imported product claiming imports are not the problem, just export. Even if you have no finished products to export.

Pure water sellers blame price increase on imports.

Money miss roads are ready to pay any price food at home and Nigerians food abroad, spoiling market for honest businesses.

You are complaing about price of ride from Airport, you have to pay the cleaners to use toilets and pay more for toilet paper "business".

What bugs me is how they make profits for selling cheaper across the border.

Yo Nigerians are greedy, sometimes last year I was in the country, my car was overheating, I stopped at that Zenith Bank on Elf Bustop, there is a woman who sells little things like biscuits soft drinks and co. I saw her buying sachet water from a truck but I was on the phone with my mechanic, the truck left before I could finish the call.
I asked this woman to give me a bag and she charged me N700.
The water truck sold to her at N300 a bag.
She insisted on N700.
I just paid for it and I asked her if she it has ever occurred to her that her greed might be the root cause of her poverty.
She insulted me and I took my water and walked away.
Nigerians are greedy baba.

Beautifulday:
I don't understand what you mean by greed. How much do you think she would have sold the pure water per single one?

You don't see anything wrong in someone buying something at N300 and reselling it at N700? By the way, I wasn't buying a single one, if you know the least thing about business, you would know that business is first about turn-over.... the way some of you think makes one stop wondering why the country has remained like this

Beautifulday:
Oga for get this long talk. Fuel increase is the root of all price increase. Bring fuel down, everything will come down.

Nigerians say price wey go up no dey come down. Has fuel ever come down in Nigeria before.

🧠 dey pain you?
The company that supplied the water with a truck they bought fuel for sold it to her at N300, they sold it at that rate after factoring in the cost of transportation, so what fuel exactly are you talking about?
The company that spent money to power their factory and transport charged N300.
You don't see anything wrong with her charging N700.
It is obvious Nigerians are responsible for the high cost of commodities and no matter what the government does, as long as people like you roam the streets nothing will change.
I am sure you are reaping your customers just like that woman

Another one encouraging outrageous profit and blaming government for everything.

Dangote reduced the wholesale price of cement to dealers, one of them decided to pass the savings at retail price.

The fellow dealers that hoard their cement wanted to kill him.

so Nigerians aren't greedy when fuel was down?

Then was fuel expensive in the 1960's?

If no, y do we still have thieves as leaders even then?

U people are so unbelievable, u present Nigeria problem like it started in 2023, so we don't have problem before Tinubu came on board right?

Hope u know it was one government in power when fela sang international thief thief?

You are the unbearable one here. No one said things have never been difficult before.

But in the history of Nigeria, goods has never gone up 3 to 5 times their previous prices.

Do you know what it means that in one year the price of egg moved from 50 naira to 300 naira?

A plate of food in the local bukka moved from 300 naira to 1500 naira.

What are you talking about please

Double your hustle, simple as ABC. Life is not fair to anyone

Very funny, apart from op's message, the rest are blank to me which is okay. I have been restoring my sanity since I started blocking enmass.

No time to check time jare

You are impossible and the reason price gouging flow freely because you can always put the blame on government.

Since Dangote reduced and made free delivery of oil, how many times have they been reflected at petrol stations?

When you cry that importation of foreign rice kill local production, the price of local rice went up after foreign rice was banned.

You nor dey shame price gourgers!

Christistruth03, everytime you blame sellers. You started blaming the sellers since your darling daddy and now the faaake certttifficcate hollldderr disappointed/ disappointimg you.

Do you mean to tell me that there were no sellers before the time of APC ? So Nigeria started selling goods and having sellers who wole up one day during the Era of APC and are ready to make 10× time more.

You see what lies and deciet can do to a soul if there is any. You lie too much just because you wanted a muslim president in 2015 and still lying today because you wanted a muslim man from your region to snatch and grab.

What happened to the sellers during the time Obasanjo ? Or during the time of Yaradua.

You are blaming sellers for the economic failures of your messsiahs back to back since 2015

mrvitalis:

If they sale 10x price why not start your own and sale 2x ?

U are definitely part of the problem

Dangote doesn't sell fuel to petrol stations. He sells to his partners MRS and they sell at Dangote set price.

NNPCL has their own stations and prices.

Other filling stations have their supply chains. They sell according to what they bought.

Removal of subsidy made all forms of logistics costly which reflects on goods and services.

Do you even know basic economics?

Of course! Government’s always got a reason to keep the prices high. Simple!

Good. You just revealed how ignorant you are.

All these arguments justifying outrageous profits are coming from the same people who campaigned that they were going to remove fuel subsidy. Guess what they are saying now.

Even the Buhari/Idiagbon we knew could not cancel fuel subsidy and praised the gut of Tinubu that cancelled it. Now this one is asking if someone knows basic economics. What a joker.

Your problem is politics and how to secure the key to Treasury. This is how you guys have turned those who had reservation about Tinubu into his supporters because they fear what people like you did when you were in power and that you will do worse if you ever get back.

The reason you blame Government for everything. Your Presidential candidates cannot even think straight like you, the followers.

Do not derail the topic, let ius go back to outrageous profits killing the masses.

You are quoting Buhari an illiterate to reinforce the failed actions of another illiterate Tinubu.

Can you compare the economy of subsidy and the economy of no subsidy?

Who will kick him out?
The fragmented opposition?
So long as Atikus greed does not allow him to form coalition with others and present a formidable candidate, it's a win for PBAT cos opposition votes will be shared among the many contenders

You guys are a bunch of knuckle heads arguing blindly and out of point but the first to label others when you run out of logic.
