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

May be a rep from their association trying to sensitise people with regards to the reason for the price hike.

Anyway, let Eleme Petrochemical be revived to produce LDPE Low Density Polyethylene for the packaging of "pure" water, pending when Dangote's refinery & petrochemical plant is completed.

2el:
There have been sharp increase in d prices of pure water across d states due to one reason or the other.

1. The sachet which the water in contained in is imported

2. It comes as a plain roll and very large. the printers buy this plain roll and print the pure water company name on it.

3. Its in different sizes and measured in KG. 1Kg was N530 before, now its N1000.

4. Those printers use different chemicals and inks to print. These chemicals all has a hike in price.

5. They also hire labourers incurred other running costs to it.

6. A pure water company buy this finished roll at N1000 instead of N530 and buy the packing bags at N5000 instead of N3200.

7. The company pays staff.

8. The machines run on diesel.

9. Maintenance of service vehicles, pays rent.

10. Maintenance of machines.

11. Buy fuel for service vehicles.

12. Buy chemical for treatment of product.

13. Most hawkers are usually charged dues like in Abia and Edo sachet hawker pays as much at N60 for tax.

14. Retailers also tend to pay for lighting and ice blocks.

**Majority of the company that produce Low density Polyethylene (LDPE) @ Eleme petrochemical industry in Rivers state and Lagos state have shut down due to high running cost and those that are importing this product are in shortage of Forex.

It's really ironic that water is cheap in the areas which are highly susceptible to drought...and it's dry season! If I can remember a similar thing occurred during the fuel price hike as Northern States were selling at the regulated price of 87 naira while marketers down here sold at very high prices. Perhaps the high level of industrialization in the Southern states has created a cutthroat capitalist policy where the masses are exploited at the slightest provocation.

Don't be deceived. The op is lying. There's nothing like 70 naira a bag around here. Not even the companies themselve sell at that price.

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.
Bros, it's a lie. In Niger here it's ten naira. The bags, if you are lucky, you get them 120.

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.

I second ur comment bro.....
