the raw material used to make the pure water sachet is made locally. Low density Polyethylene (LDPE) is been produced at Eleme petrochemical industry in Rivers state.
In onitsha pure water still goes for #10 per sachet.
#NigeriansexploitingNigerians
what about the chemicals? btw, what gives you impression that all sachet water manufacturers buys their nylon from factory that produce using LDPE from Rivers State?

You don't know economics. Give us in clear terms the reason behind the 20 naira that a sachet pure water is sold.
It is imported inflation cos other prices have gone up and we all patronize same market. If u fail to raise your own u will be left for dead. Even labour will soon start real agitation for. Salary increase!

...since i was born and now am a youth, I have always seen Data Bundles reducing and reducing from back to back to back ranging from AIRTEL - ETISALAT - GLO - MTN. So, the CHANGE has always been there, but it's now very Visbible to the Blinds and Profound to the deaf.

Some of the most dangerous things in this world are sincere Ignorance an conscientious stupidity.
ignorance you are indeed....Buhari is doing his best, its just a matter of time, things will fall in places, for nigeria to be good for once, there must be sacrifices.....the only pained people of this administration are the thieves who Buhari has blocked every possible way of stealing..or are you among them? tongue grin

It goes beyond elementary school that's why we have tertiary institutions. Have you ever heard of environment of business? They are political, Economical, socio cultural, technological e.t.c. He's right for blaming the government weather apc or pdp because any bad or weak economic policy affects business resulting to inflation, fall in value for money e.t.c

Go to Alaba int'l market or Onitsha main market and ask Alhaji Issah or chief Dubem why he sells his LG TV set at exorbitant rates while every other person sells at a normal price. Maybe you should also ask multichoice or DSTV why they keep increasing their charges without corresponding measures to justify those charges. We bought the same bag of rice at the same cost and you come back and fix your selling price far above mine just to make excess gain, thereby causing economic hardship for some people only to come back and blame Jonathan or Buhari. I believe that government can commit economic blunders but sometimes we aggravate through greed. That's my point.

how dollar take affect the pure water wey them dey make for back yard abi is the water imported?


It's not about those producing the pure water but those producing the materials...


Price of materials av increase, so they will increase the amount too.


A bag is sold for #100 in company while #150 if u wanna buy from retailers in lagos.


You won't believe some of these guys always buy their materials from lagos, imagine the cost of transportation and the increase in material price.

Effect of SHAME called Change

this is why people like you will remain stupiid. Instead of blaming the greedy company, you began to beat around the bush. YOU NEED EDUCATION. THIS ACTION CAN ONLY BE JUSTIFIED IF FUEL PRICE OR MINIMUM WAGE INCREASES.

THIS COUNTRY CAN NEVER PROGRESS UNLESS NIGERIANS START TO REASON LIKE CIVILIZED HUMAN.

They should arrest the director for being part of the conspiracy to bring the country down. The director of the company is one of the evil Nigerians that want the dollar to be devalued for their personal interest.

SeverusSnape:



The chemicals and materials used to produce the sachets are imported.

#3300-#5000? That's too much, as of last week it was #3000-#3300 in lag, even if it will go further it shouldn't be more than #3500 here.


Things for Niger delta dey alway dey different, a litre of fuel sells for #105-#120 here in Akwa Ibom state.

The Raw Materials used in Producing the Nylons/bottles are normally imported. It comes in bead sizes, now the manufacturing company now melts these beads to form the various nylons/plastic bottles used in packaging this water we all drink! that's why the price of water has risen. grin

When a tout or fish seller talks, the ooze of freshness fades. I'm not surprised because I've met your types at newspaper stands and motor parks. People like you always argue from your canal knowledge, myopic and restricted understanding.

Motor parks, newspaper stands, that is where lousy losers & dirty touts like you hang around.
