When you say average for feeding a family of 6, I am assuming that you mean a family of father, mother and 4 children.

Each person will eat a meal of #1,500 on the average for each meal. That is 9,000 each day for feeding alone.

This will be 9,000 x 30 days, #270,000

This is just the beginning o

Given time with no action, salt will become so costly that it would be out of reach.

It depends on the feeding formation. If it involves only striker without the midfielders and defenders then 200k should be enough in a month. But peradventure you include all parties then budget 500k base on inflation.

The average cost of feeding a family of six depends on how fast you learn the old national anthem. The earlier you learn it fast, the better for the family.

Thank you very much

400 x 6 = 2,400 naira

2,400 naira x 3 = 7,200 naira per day.

7,200 x 30 days = 216,000 naira a month.

Most Nigerians don't earn upto #200,000 per month yet they're feeding, clothing and sheltering themselves. The quality is what seems to depreciate rather than the quantity. Who else have noticed that 80-90% of fish barbecue businesses have shut down since Tinubu took over as president? Nigerians are feeding on less desirable,less delicious and less nutritious meals today. Everything about Nigeria reminds me of the novel 1984 by George Orwell.

Exactly.

People hardly buy meats in the market.

You see meat sellers having refrigerated meat for days before they're able to sell it off.

Balanced diet-
Parameter- ₦1500= a balanced meal price per person
₦1500 * 3square meals *6persons= ₦27,000/day
₦27,000 * 7days= ₦189,000/Wk
₦189,000 * 4wks= ₦756,000/month


An unbalanced diet-
Parameter- ₦800=an unbalanced meal price per person
₦800 * 3square meals *6persons= ₦14,400/day
₦14,400 * 7days =₦100,800/Wk
₦100,800 * 4wks= ₦403,200/month


A Survival mode
Parameter- ₦350= Survival meal price per person
₦350 * 3square meals *6persons= ₦6,300/day
₦6,300 * 7days =₦44,100/wk
₦44,100 * 4wks= ₦176,400/month

People survive on something less than that as you say, but you should ask what type of survival?? People eat very very unhealthy meal, survived on illegal money and patronage, have their kids doing crazy things outside to survive.
No family of 6 can survive in anything less than 2400minimum per meal and that is being very very very conservatives, and this is only food oo.. Nigeria corruption can never reduce until workers can eat, shelter, and cloth on their own with what they ear.. Civil servant are corrupt because large majority of them earn a very pauper salary that can't even survive them for a week...

You're assuming #400 per person/meal ?

That's not realistic nah

It depends, on income and budget of the family, lifestyle of the family, exposure/level of education, environment and location.

From your calculation, it should be 27,000 per day, not 9000 per day.
1,500 x 3 x 6 =27,000

You gave a literal overview. I simply classified them base on what is attainable regardless of lifestyle or social-economic value.
A family of six earning below the survival mode is experiencing acute starvation that requires urgent attention.

Remember, you can buy food and foodstuffs at a cheaper rate in some locations to another location.
And some family despite their high income can't still feed well.

Give your own na
A family of 6 say the east 5 cups of rice in one sitting that's 2000 already ( if they eat local rice ooh)
The stew would cost 6000 minimum let's say 4000 for the stew that's 6000 for one meal for the day

Breakfast if they eat 1 bread that's 1500( they would most likely eat two) , Milo is 400 milk is 400 ... That's 4900 for milk, 1500 for bread

That's over 6400 ... If they add egg that shoots to over 8500

Dinner they eat soup of 5000 garri for 6 people would be 1500 minimum.. That's 6500

So we have a net spend of 18 to 20,000 per day

Nothing fancy , not even drink , not even bottle water... Didn't add gas
