Golden Penny is currently #800 in some places.

Titus Sardine is aiming for #850.

Even water and garri will soon become a luxury.
Many Nigerians will either eat sand this year or revolt!

Buhari took the nation to the edge of the abyss in 8 years... It took his successor less than 6 months to sink it into the bottomless pit.

Tinubu is a bad luck. He only came to accomplish his own ambition. Only sane people were not deceived.

Time to go into farming is now. Farmers not crying that loud because of inflation, because they are cashing out big time.

How do we get food prices down? If I’m tasked to solve this problem, it’s a demanding job but opportunity I would relish. Nigeria has fertile ground and hard working farmers, which makes the task easier

1) Provide round-the-clock security to farmers. No more bandits harassing them while they farm.

2) Roads leading to major farms should be prioritised, so that farmers can bring goods to market quickly. David Umahi can partner with minister of Agriculture to see which roads across the country, especially in the middle belt can be prioritised for rehabilitation.

3) Storage facilities for both perishable and non perishable produce should be built across all states. According to Ngalale, part of the deal with Siemens will be providing green energy for storage hubs to store produce for longer.

4) All agricultural produce transporters, I would give them loans to buy modern efficient vehicles, to transport bigger produce from farm to market. No more using pickup made 100 years ago, doing overload on our roads anymore. The vehicles will be modern, and fuel efficient. Some would have chill compartment when needed. The lorries needed to move livestock will be big, humane to livestock and modern.
Overloading will be banned. Two drivers will be needed when driving from Kano to Lagos. One sleeps in the cabin while the other drives. Road transport police will periodically check for alcohol abuse, fatigue and overloading. This is to prevent drivers tumbling agricultural produce on roads due to poor road awareness.
As we build our railways, we can extend the railways to major agricultural hubs in the country and move some of the produce across the country by rail.

5) Where governors should be commended especially in the north over the years is distribution of fertilisers. We can always improve on that and train farmers on mechanised uses. Some of our farmers are already up to date on that but we can still do better.

6) As our refineries and power grid improve, cost of diesel, power should go down, which will reflect in prices coming down in the long haul.

I sincerely hope the local refining of crude oil will bring down the price of petrol. Else, am afraid things will only get worse.

They have started hoarding petrol at the refinery already.
Under fractional distillation process, you get petrol before diesel. So what are they saying?
Nigeria is not designed to favour the poor masses.
Who are the owners of this refinery? Make your research diligently.

But will you allow the customs police, military and the sundry outfits to continue their extortion of these transporters?

People that knows nothing about indices of development is praising Amoda for taking hard decisions instead of bringing down inflation, bringing down cost of living, bringing down insecurity, bringing down poverty.

Tinubu is a monumental failure
