Flew Abuja to Uyo in 2015 and back with 22k.

Fuel used to be N65 per litre.

The only commodity whose price didn't really appreciate geometrically is beer...

If the price of beer were to move like that of fuel, a lot of us would be sober.

Do not panic, do not run, call your friends or family member, if you have a lawyer call one and then report yourself to the police

Do not tamper with the body in any way., the girl has family members, they will look for her. if you do that, you have worsen your situation

Tell your lawyer to get a doctor to do an autopsy as they move you to jail. be prepared to be accused of being a ritual killer and a kidnapper and be prepared to be on blogs, which will destroy your reputation, only after the police have done their investigation will they release you.

And hope you dont live in the ghetto or low to middle income home or you might be lynched.

after you have been released, quickly go online and clear your name by giving interviews to known bloggers, if you have money buy spaces on newspapers to clear your name. if possible visit the girl family to also clear your name, move on with your life or change location.

All these hassle just for companionship.

I'm not doing abeg. Thank God for single life.

Let’s be real, what are the actual statistics on financially stable singles who say they’re lonely and wish they weren’t? Honestly, if loneliness was unbearable, most of these people would have jumped into marriage already. It’s not like finding a partner is impossible; it’s just that in this economy, marriage itself isn’t some magic fix.

Nigeria’s economy is strangling everyone’s purchasing power right now. Inflation is through the roof, prices of basic things like fuel and food are insane, and salaries barely cover rent, let alone family or personal dreams. I know two couples both married who recently got divorced purely because the financial pressure became unbearable. It’s not just about love or companionship; it’s survival.

So many Married people are suffering silently, putting on fake smiles while juggling multiple jobs, side hustles, and constant financial anxiety. Their salaries or small business incomes “can’t do shit” sometimes they’re barely enough to pay bills, let alone provide a comfortable life or raise a family without stress.

Single people might complain about loneliness, but married folks carry the weight of responsibilities that don’t disappear with love school fees, medical bills, family obligations, and the crushing fear of what happens if the breadwinner loses their job or business tanks.

At the end of the day, neither side has it easy. The pain is real everywhere, it just shows up differently. Marriage isn’t a cure, and being single isn’t a free pass. The economy is the common enemy here, and until that changes, everyone’s just trying to survive in a system that’s making life harder every day.

My brother, Infact you over analyzed Nigeria's current reality, Most especially the part of "Many Mid-Income Earners Married Couples With Children" are silently suffering and wearing fake smiles outside.

I reside in a lowcost housing neighborhood, and i'm sincerely telling you it's very crazzzy. Imagine couples with children buying Sachet Toothpaste and other products on a steady for use while me that i'm single usually get the one with standard box.

I cannot count the amount of times i have heard many couples with children making calls to maybe their relatives, colleagues to tell them they are hungry, They haven't taken anything since yesterday. The funny thing is these are people that have Jobs and not lazy oooo. I haven't seen something like this before.

Sometimes, I have to lay low and pretend like i am in their situation too for my security and safety reasons. I have made up my mind on my plans and i pray everything goes well.

PerfectStranger:
You sound like a newly married man. Its always seems sweet and rosy at first

That is it!

He is not the first and he won't be the last.

This is one of the beautiful things about life.

To thrive or be stable in Nigeria going forward, it's pretty simple.

- Ensure you have a consistent, sustainable (growth options) and legitimate sources of income
- Have fewer children. This is the ultimate. The average Nigerian family need not have more than two children.
- For financially stable bachelors, avoid ladies who have too many siblings, especially if the siblings are still young or teenagers. The alternative is to check if her parents would be fully responsible for their care till they become adults. Too many Nigerian men take up the responsibilities of their in-laws whereas they should focus squarely on their new families
- Have fewer children.
- Avoid unnecessary expenses and keeping up with the Joneses. Shoe get size. Don't do follow when your power no reach.
- Have fewer children

Five years ago, I created a thread on managing expenses as a Nigerian: https://www.nairaland.com/6035550/nigerians-poverty-certain-acts-perpetuate

You literally foresaw the future.

You posts covered everything entirely.

Gerrard59:
I'm curious (no harm intended),

- On average, how many men did you interview?
- In what part of Nigeria did these interviews take place?
- What kind of questions did you ask these men?
- What is the age range of these men?

There are many more I could have asked, but let me stop here. Your survey is actually a very good one though, kudos.

Mr Gerrard.

My interviews were done in Lagos precisely.

ibechris:
I am a married man with four children. I basically survive on my passive income that brings in substantial amount of money.

I am extremely happy with my life especially in this current wicked administration and my only angst is,seeing people suffer economically.

No doubt,many married men and women with children are suffering terribly.

I do not think i have anything else to add to your submission because you seems to be very in touch with the reality of things on the streets in this current regime.

SocialJustice:
Being a family man under Tinubu is a literally a curse. One burden to another. Schools are about to resume. Daily feeding and transportation.

Infact, This cannot be emphasized.

The glaring despair on struggling family men faces most especially those in lagos state is mind blogging.

Even the financially okay ones are lowkey murmuring and complaining.

Recently I did my survey with regards to the current situation of Nigeria.

My interviews with single men and married men showed single financially okay men are more happier than married financially struggling men.

Share your experiences on the streets.

I supposed mr tpain have reset most of you "Ageism" fuuus brains now

Those who moved out without strong financial backing and adequate planning are gnashing their teeth in anxiety and depression now

...............................

30 Character is it afterall.

I go soon leave your site for you.

Lol

Believe this at your own peril

silibaba:
You nailed it bro.

What more can I say?

🙏🙏🙏

LoneSoldier:
Is this response directed to me or the other dude I quoted...

I presume you should already deduce i was referring to him and not you.

You did what's best for you and what will give you peace of mind and someone is questioning you about it. Yet you keep engaging him.

LoneSoldier:
Bolded one
How does grace and luck co-relate...?

Bolded two
Fulfilling what, didn't you see where I wrote one of them told me his marriage is in chaos, so he is knownly fulfilling his duties by having his throat cut off....

Bolded three
To each man his own, I have chosen that life.... And it suits my personality very well....

How do you guys Cope in conversing with Archaic and Low IQ People.

It's not every mention i respond to on here.

Mcslize:
You and I know, there are some men that are ozuor in the real world. We call them money miss road men.

Men that will appreciate a girl's beauty by crediting her account. Men that will credit a woman's account simply for accepting their friends request on Facebook.

Mumu men fool everywhere and that's why women are clamouring for marrying a rich man.

Mumu men plenty outside. And that's why some will marry rubbish put for house. All that any lady needs is to have yansh and breast she will bag one mumu money miss road man as husband.

If no be foolishness of some men, while will a reasonable man buy Ashani waka waka baby car and house and even go as far as proposing. No be JuJu be that?

The sad reality we should all accept is This caliber of men will always be in majority of men, Most especially in a country like Nigeria.

Most Nigerian men regardless of their status will do anything to have Sex with women

silibaba:
Women even experience it more than men.

Desire for sex is more in women just that they know how to contain it.

But once you are about to get them laid, nah dem dey first pull off everything for dem body self.

You are so on point with your analysis. But i would like to put some touches on the bolded.

Yes it's true we all assume women know how to contain the urge, But the assertion isn't entirely true. Ladies/Women are the No One Masturbators in the world. So while we think they are containing it, They are secretly busy helping themselves. To buttress my point, Check the Ever Booming intimacy gadget Industry and tell me their biggest customers

What makes this funnier is they can Masturbate literally anywhere and anytime. Observe and take a look at a lady or woman sitting down with her Legs crossed, Something is going on down there unnoticed. But it were to be a man, The bulge will be so visible

Secondly, The society is what is holding them back, Like shaming and all. Thirdly, They have discovered Most men are very aggressive when it comes to sex due to their High Testosterone. So they are leveraging on the situation.

Remove all these barriers and see Women start Raping men, Men always think they love sex lol but they have no idea. Women are BEAST when it comes to sex.

Khastro:
Before I got married, my GM would say "never mind about the extra expenses, you'll spend them anyways"

I can tell that things weren't rosy when I was single, they aren't particularly rosy now that I've been married for years.

So why not go ahead and get married (to someone with whom you share mature understanding and a choosing to be responsible to each other).

You and your MD dey craze😂

doncartel:
Nigerians will soon start marrying at 50 years old with the way the economy is going.

By 55 you have finished giving birth, your children graduate from university when you are about 75. You retire at 80 and contest for president like Tinubu and Atiku. Sounds like a good plan.

Brilliancepower:
Men in their 30s.. ? Are you just waking up from sleep.. Am 45, I don't have any gotham pressure to get married again. But I get three Pikins and only one is with me, he is 5, the eldest is 15 ( him mama dey form champion, me I face my work), I get a girl that is 2 (her mama dey form champion, she dey with am). I noticed bill killed my dad at 58.. unless if am to die early, bills nor fit kill me. Bills dey make men die!🙄

Rasing tomorrow Vagabonds😂

I'do rather "not marry and be childless" or better still opt for the best which Surrogacy than indulge in this baby daddy and baby mama shiiit.

Only if you know what Women usually tells their kids about you. Because in this kind of settings and normal settings, Women are the owner of Children.

Lamasta:
Who are the wealthy people that married while struggling and became wealthy after marriage

Are you minding the eediot

The Situation he is insinuating is always like 5% out of 100%. You will mostly find Religious Foools orchestrating this course.

This notion is one of the most valid reason why there is widespread and prevalent EXTREME POVERTY in the country

idahme:
I'm average financially but loathe any semblance of laziness combined with entitlement and selfishness, many ladies fall into this category I don't want to be the answer of ladies in this group praying for a millionaire as a husband this is why I'm taking my time. Mine has no reason to do with finance....

Like i usually say, I pity the GenZ and Alpha Generations and their Mothers because na Women dey carry Marriage for head like Gala and Lacasera

Them full everywhere "Both Gender" with Pride and Delusions. Even many Millennia Gen never find their bearing

The "People Are Marrying Every Weekend Gang" will come on here to spew their usual gibberish as usual. After finishing deceiving themselves, They will all retreat to the Realities on the Streets

mayDtolu:
The pressure on men to get married once they hit their 30s is honestly exhausting. In our society, the moment a man enters his 30s, people start acting like he’s overdue for marriage—throwing jabs, cracking jokes, or outright questioning his decisions.

Anybody wey get mind ask me this mumu question during this period.

Two Teeths don comot for your mouth

Think9ja:
Lol

In times like this, black people go just sit down look because them no get anything to offer. They (blacks) are actually a dumping ground to both US and China.

Blacks no suppose de exit I swear

Very useless and unproductive race.

Na Bleep and relationship matter just full their dumb heads

Mumu.

Advices and Choices dey full people mouth when dem don make money😂

Anyways, I trust the dem dem to do you the biggest favour so you can be so proud and very happy with this your decision🤣

With time, Your Akamu brain will start functioning properly again very soon🤣
