To be sure, measuring the impact of 'Yahoo boys’ spending culture on the micro-economy, and ultimately inflation, could prove difficult, if not near-impossible.https://www.premiumtimesng.com/business/business-data/451854-how-much-inflationary-pressure-do-yahoo-boys-heap-on-nigerians-by-oladeinde-olawoyin.html 24 Likes 4 Shares

You fools yahoo boys are not your problem you didn't elect yahoo boys into office they owe you nothing Yahoo boys cannot and did not cause any inflation, government did with their excessive borrowing, excessive spending and looting and over pricing everything to get their cut from every contract like the RCCG road saga road redeemed church repaired for millions is what govmt spends 2 billion per kilometre on, and Ganduje stuffing babariga and Tinubu ordering bullion vans to his homes like pizza delivery and people sharing money during elections these are what causes inflation. Not 500u.s dollars one small boy somewhere picked or even 2k u.s dollars for one small scammer cannot cause inflation in the full Nigeria with over 200million people. Everyday yahoo boys, everyday yahoo boys, I believe it's those old fools ruling sponsoring all these kind of headlines and news as distractions, one thing you don't even consider is imagine no yahoo at all calculate how much poverty would be in Nigeria, the south Will be much worse than the north in poverty. Because money doesn't get to us here the people I don't mean the govmt. Because of tribalism atleast northerners get federal and state jobs, I was in the north for 3 years couldn't get one job because of my name and state of origin, I will go they'll tell me openly "oga this your name, them no go fit even do mistake accept you" and for 3 years from Abuja, Kano, Jigawa, and so on I didn't get one job my friend from Benue changed his name to Musa and he can speak Hausa, the man who gave him the job told him openly he wanted to give the slot to an hausa person and that's the reason he is giving it to him to make sure it's his fellow Hausa man, he told him this in Hausa (foolish man die for Mumu man backyard) he is working for customs today. I refused to change mine so I had to return to the south south before Joblessness kill me. Most Benue, kogi, Kaduna, Nassarawa even if they are not Hausa they'll claim to be Hausa and most of them even bear Hausa names or these generic Aliyu, Musa, Shehu and co. Just to survive there, they also speak Hausa, you need these to survive in Our DARLING ONE NIGERIA But the only option open to you who is from the south, especially South south of you don't want to change your name and learn Hausa Man Know man find one uncle or aunty who is a big man or woman if you no get just forget it na Militancy get you last last come join us for gun boat Incase you are wondering I graduated with a good result, They didn't open my envelop once, all they looked at was the name, they didn't even read the C.V (who get that time), the ones that manage to open the envelope just look at the c.v scheming through looking for State of Origin, I studied something very appealing and generally applicable especially to politics and government work. I just wanted Government work atleast for experience and start up, that's what I was interested in, I applied to Nimasa, customs, Corporate affairs commission, immigration, judiciary etc e no get where I no apply So please and please Leave yahoo boys face your Evil leaders who will not build hospitals but go and use other countries hospitals their governments built for them. They will not give you government grants or loans but will go and patronise and invest in other people's foreign countries companies and industries built with their own government grants and loans 418 Likes 58 Shares |

Most of the comments above are senseless, bias and totally null and void. The op brought a salient issue on what contributed to the increase in price of some essentials. Therefore, making life difficult for the less privileged. No matter how it's christened, whatever is bad can't be called good. And God will punish whoever deserves to be punished over this issue. He'll punish anyone who oppresses the poor. The government oppresses the poor. They'll face the consequences. If you're here too and you're into any fraudulent activity, Trust me, you can't escape it. You're setting strange fire for yourself and your posterity. By the time the fire is done...hmmm And those of you waiting on God. Shebi you know how to fraud, but you chose not to. You keep your integrity! Haba! There's a great reward coming. Don't compare yourself with anyone. 131 Likes 14 Shares |

Prices of things are actually normal in my neighbourhood despite the presence of a lot of yahoo boys, there are clothe shops that sell a pair of jeans for as low as #3k while some sell at #8k-12k it just depends on what you can afford and the quality (you don't expect to buy original designers for 3k na) you can even buy okrika for 1k if e choke. Price inflation here is mostly due to the weak naira, an original nike goes for about a $100 or more which is like 41k due to the exchange rate, i remember getting a pair of nike airforce at a nike store in early 2019 for 27k but going back to the store the prices have gone up, making it affordable to mostly the rich and fraudsters. There are 3-5star restaurants and also regular restaurants like chicken republic. The rent of houses depends on the location you want to live in,you can't get a house in an high-brow area and be expecting cheap rent. You just go for what you can afford sha, It's that simple. 81 Likes 5 Shares |

You are either shortsighted or not welll informed.Since I was born 45 years ago,all I have been hearing in Nigeria is he-go-better and things are getting worse in the country.Is it yahoo boys that crumbled our economy in the 80s when a naira was even stronger than dollar?Almost all businesses (hospitality,auto business,real estates,even almighty oil business) are crumbling in Nigeria.Is it yahoo boys that’ privatized NEpa and still no light but they issued crazy ,outrageous bill and nobody to question?Is it yahooboys that said all our road should not be motorable ?Last time,super eagle could not travel to ordanary Benin republic because that route is totally displorable and eyesore,is it yahoo boy?Are you surprised that Ghana is now taking over and most of our celebrities and well to do guys are trooping their recently to invest?

Believe it or not illicit flow of money has always been part of what has always driven the Nigerian economy From the ade Bendels in the late 1980’s and 1990’s From the drug barons who worked with Tinubu in the 1990’s toward the early 2000,s The yahoo themed boys who have worked from the internet era 2003- present Fraud money has been substantially part of whar has directly and indirectly run Nigerian economy Even from the govt corrupt practices, think about how much Abacha stashed abroad and yet that time 1993-1998 the economy was really really good even better than his predecessors yet the treasury was looted so much 20 years after it is still coming back And it will only get worse, this last year alone confirms it I can only feel sorry for the poorest people in this country 18 Likes 2 Shares |

ec0malchemist: Shut up it is because no jobs, no start up funds, no capital, no business loans, no youth oriented programs, no government policy to get graduates owning a house in 5 years as you have else where, where you can use government loan to go to school, buy house buy car, still go to private lenders using only credit score collect money for other things, still collect phone from Apple and pay small small from either your salary and so on Incase you fall on had times you have several safety nets Like if you read Oliver twist all the orphans, homeless people etc at a certain time would go to government facilities to collect free food, them churches have such houses too If you read John Grisham's the street lawyer, the state had homeless shelters for homeless people, whenever their was heavy snow or something each shelter starts accepting people till it's full to capacity. Till today emergency blankets, coffee and a small stipend is given to needy across the world, for countries where it snows during heavy snow police and other government workers and agencies go from place to place looking for homeless people to shelter so they don't freeze and die. We in Nigeria OUR DARLING NATION I've seen dead bodies on the street, mad people in the rain, excrement by the side of the roads Wetin we never see? This is why I will not take any vaccine, government that cannot feed me, cure malaria, prevent dysentry by providing common pipe borne water wants to give me free vaccine of how much? If they can hoard food, palliatives people donated to us and gave them to them to share, it shows they can do anything those people want us dead. They should use covid 19 money to reduce malaria in Nigeria, more people die of malaria than Covid 19. 61 Likes 3 Shares |
