How Are You Surviving? by HoluwaLoniGlory(m): 11:12am On Jul 29, 2022 |
I stroll out today, I decide to buy banana. the banana is N900. Why ma? I humbly asked. "banana is now costly ooo" she respond But I bought this same size of banana at N300 last year in camp. she said that is last year. Then, I decide to buy corn from a next woman. ma how much is your corn I asked. N250, she answered. what last year #50 corn. she responded that it's like your not in this country In the end, I had to spend extra N150 on corn. This is definitely not sustainable. Abeg, how much is my monthly allowance that I’ll be spending that much on corn? I am seriously worried for how things are going in this country, especially when it comes to food. Within the last one year, my monthly budget for food has tripled even with how; meanwhile the quantity has even reduced over time. Most of my budget is on feeding and transportation. that I could not buy any materials things for my self. Earlier last week, I wanted to get bread but there was no bread at all. The gist was that bakers are on strike, and it’s connected with their rising cost of production. If it’s a miracle that we are managing to eat daily, what then is the hope for the majority of Nigerians who live below the poverty level? With this crazy inflation, high cost of living, rising fuel cost, forex palaver, among other issues, Nigerians might just need to brace up for another recession and at the most unfortunate time. Salary week is here but don’t get excited. In fact, don’t be surprised if you can no longer afford certain basic things you used to buy in the nearby supermarket. Don’t get mad, it’s not their fault. I was asking my friend on whatsap what the "government can possibly do to help". then I got the shocking information that a certain government agency (Nigeria Customs Service) is partly, directly responsible for how things especially food products have become so expensive in this country! � This government agency is heaping misery on Nigerians through arbitrary duty charges on importers bringing in food commodities, which then affects the cost of finished goods and food prices that we all suffer. �� but for now I need to ask: how are you surviving? 77 Likes 4 Shares |

It takes me 500₦ to eat just corn and pear. What 150₦ conveniently does for me before. Everyone is just trying to stay alive. As no survival tactics seems to work anymore. Every new day means new inflated price of items. 110 Likes 5 Shares |

Economy crisis is a global menace. It's a global challenge and not peculiar to just Nigeria. It surges almost every part of the world.

Simple tips that can help you manage your business better. - Record all your expenses: This include receipts, invoices, quotations and other paper-proof documents. - Anytime you receive funds from a customer or client through a corporate bank account, and the client requests for a part of full refund, ensure you return the funds using the same bank account/medium it was used to receive it. -Don't receive funds from into your corporate bank account from those you don't have business relationship with. Don't receive funds on peoples' behalf. - Track your business figures : This could be done either in soft or hard form. You can either input them on an excel sheet (soft form) or get a diary (hard copy). Remember, once it's not documented, then, it's considered not done. - Bank statements : Always ensure to put proper narrations after making any bank transfer. This should also apply anytime you're on the verge of issuing payment cheques for services rendered to your business. Just scribe some wordings on the cheque stub. Wordings like "Payment for Rent" and " Transfer for vehicle Licence " will give your accountant less stress during accounts reconciliation or preparation. - If your business is heavily cash based, you can inform your cashier to always tell the bulk teller at the bank to give proper narrations to all your transactions. Narrations like " Cash Sales for Monday 30/07/2020” and "Deposit from Uncle Oyewole of Ijora photography " would be helpful to your business The banks on their part should on work their USSD and other related payment platforms in order to make it possible for customers to insert narrations while effecting transfers.
