Nothing surprises me as regards Nigeria. I won't be surprised if inflation reaches 20%. How can Dangote be selling cement for 3500 and product that shouldn't go far more than 1500 naira. And one idiot will tell me 'buy naija to grow naija' and CPC isn't doing anything to help the active poor masses 76 Likes 3 Shares |

things are not just hard but very very hard in this country. Getting a job is hard already not to talk about the age restrictions they use so as to disqualify the poor unlike the rich The few who are even lucky to graduate on time are being faced with issue of connection and even the few who are connected are asked to get more connections. Now, things are expensive and they expect the common man to be able to afford them. Thesame person who has no job and does not even knw when and where the next meal will come form, I weak for Nigeria. Even the super chicken who are supposed to make us haply are busy disgracing us.
