The Only Two People Doing Well In Nigeria Currently by Winnerrrr(op): 5:42pm On Sep 02
Salary just dropped yesterday and i don’t have more than 40K in my bank account right now after settling debts.

Even my boss dey cut corners for office to cater for his needs, based on my observations the only people that are doing well in this country are:

1) Politicians and their cronies.
2) People making money online and earning foreign currencies.

everyone else is intertwined into one or more financial problems.

It's easy to say drivers earn 500k monthly but when you factor in expenses like fuel,spare parts,owomida levies from different corners you will notice they don't earn much.

Not true. Businesses are doing good.
Just because you are not doing good doesn't mean others are not. Speak for yourself.

This suffering cannot be sustained..

It's very sád that the man who said 'let the poor breathe, don't suffocate them'.. no poor or even middle class has breathe for a day under his government..

You raised and tripled fuel price from N190 to N570 on your first day in office.. as crude and crùel as that was, you still tripled the 570.. to now almost 1500 in the life of your administration..

If you still have doubt that they are after your life, then you need to be checked..🤔🤔

Was it always like this?

What changed since when things were much better?

How can you WORK with others to get back to when life was much better, without hyperinflation eroding the value of salaries, savings and investments?
