Hian!!! So someone actually took time to write all this because of sachet water.

So people still buy sachet water for N5 in Northern states? Those guys are having it real good. As in N5, N5 can't buy u anything in PH.

Conversation Between An
Accountant,Bank worker,Economist,
Political Analyst,Trader on the
economy..


Bank Worker: I was at your shop today
i met your boy so i told him to give me
the shoe will haggle on last year for
8000naira,your boy looked me in the
eye and said the shoe now cost
36000naira,i had to look around to be
sure it was your shop i was and not
somewhere else,something we had
agree upon.
Trader: Come on don't you watch the
news Abi you of all people are not a
privy to what is happening,the other
day at your bank i was kneeling and
begging your bank manager to help
me with few dollars to import new
shoes.guess what he said "I am sorry
but for now there is a restriction on
dollars,i can't help." does he mean i
should close down my shop or
what,the government is not helping
matters.
Economist: the government is only
helping you,you don't know,if they
should flood in dollars even though
that is impossible except we go
borrowing From those Modern day
slave masters, you just have to
endure,can't you just source for your
shoes within Nigeria? atleast promote
local product.
Trader:Oh oh,which Nigerian
Company produces shoe? and if i say
you should buy Aba made now you
will start complaining it is too cost that
you prefer the "Bend down Select"
Bank worker: Too bad, it is not like it
is our fault,we don't have good
economy policies and that is where
economist are lagging behind.
imagine we import common tooth
pick,common tooth pick haha it is
over.
Economist: Hell No,how is it our fault
where were you when the
Accountants that were suppose to see
to our income and expenditures
where busy doing other
things,imagine Accountant will
account for money that doesn't exist.
They are.....
Accountant: Abeg,don't say what you
don't know,Accountants say what
they see,you have 5naira and i say it is
5naira,do i force you on our to spend
your money,we can only give financial
advice yours is to choose to
follow..but hey what is this
50000naira deducted from my
account,what for?
Banker:it is a new policy
All: which policy after the 1000 and 50
naira policy.
Political Analyst1: It is the fault of
APC,you voted change and you have
it.
Political Analyst2: How is it APC fault?
if PDP had left some reserve all this
wouldn't be happening,The
government is trying to proffer
solution....
Political Analyst1: and you think....
Bank Worker: Bar man,come and give
APC and PDP fellows more bottles
before they start the blame game...

Bloody thieves. Bloody bloody thieves.

Questions to be answered, do the producers in the North get these imported rolls at the same increased price as their Southern counterparts? Do the importers in the North get the same exchange rate or suffer the same shortage of dollar? Do the producers in the North experience the same miserable power supply?

If your answers to all these questions is yes, how then are they still selling at N5, and some people are making as much as 300% profit. WTF!!!! angry angry angry angry That is freaking exploitation. No excuse.

Tap water ti take over!!!!

5 naira it is in Kano. Just like someone said earlier, the southerners (South south, South east and south west) are the cause of their own problem, we southerners living in the north do buy things very cheap, sometimes when you hear how much my brothers pay for transportation in the south, one will begin to wonder if we are from same country, just as I have always said, the North would've been the best place to live if not for crisis, most of the southerners hate themselves and the level of greed is beyond normal, we always want to make 1000% profit all the time whereas the average Hausa man is contented with what they make everyday and we always think we are wiser than them yet they are also in position of authority, they take live very simple.

We the southerners need to tell ourselves the truth, we dislike one another that's why it is easier for government to take advantage of us. I have lot to say on this but let me go back to work.

N:B Southerners include (Yoruba, Igbo, Binis and everyone after river Niger).
My name is Temi, I am just here to make common sense.
