As a bachelor I Just strolled out of my street to go get bean because the last basket I bought March has finished.

Madam give me beans..

She replied how many cups I say 4 hoping I might cook 2 and use the remaining later this week..if I haven't gone to market then.

I paid gave her 1k hoping to get change... But to my surprise she was asking for additional 600.

Meaning 1 cup was #400.

I stood there and didn't know when I burst out laugh. A Cold laugh
I couldn't cry, I laughed because I was shocked beyond words.

Before the year ends death toll might rise in this country due to starvation. And no one is really saying something about this outrightly.
Why can't we call for help from ecowas and un intervention now that some of us are still alive.

If I a bachelor financialy okay is complaining this way. what about those with multitude of mouths to feed.
I can't just help to imagine what's going on in some home's right now.
I was surprised when I went to buy too and I was told 1 cup is now 400.I thought the seller wanted to cheat me.

Last week Thursday, I was opportune to buy a derika of the tiniest size of honey beans for N1,100. Just about three buildings away, the same specie of beans was sold for N1,500, cos I priced theirs first.

On Saturday, I said let me go buy more for N1,100, but the price had changed over night to N1,200. My brother, I didn't think twice before buying it because I knew that if I mistakenly turn my body and return it, they would have added another increment.
That was how I ended up buying a small paint bucket of beans for about N7,200.

It's not funny at all! That invariably means that a cup of beans is truly N400, because original derika cup contains 4 milk cups.

To increase subsidy, u don't stress urself. U just announced during speech on ur swearing in as a president. U increased price of everything without stress and masses trying to cope. National assembly, and VP got billions of naira to renovate and buy cars, without stress. Ur and ur VP spent 8.6billions within just few months for traveling, no stress. Now, to increase minimum wages, u now turned their representatives to errands boys and girls with different meetings upon meetings and offering them just 60k. What for? They broke down how they came up with the 615k, then u also should break down how u reached the 60k and let everyone hear.

That your last sentence lol... Dey really need to tell us how to spend 60k in this administration

I don't agree with the strike action or the demands of the NLC, they should channel the energy into calling for a full reversal of fuel prices

That's the only solution to the mess werein

Bros, deal with it. We are in for a long run...

Today we are buying fuel between N800-1000, everyone is quiet about that. A custard of Garri is 4k now. Imagine , Garri, the last hope of a common man.

This is just the answer.

Kudos!

We just start!

This was the advice I got from meta AI this morning.... Abeg help send am to Tinubu and shettima. I dey conm


Here's a candid advice for the Nigerian government to help lessen economic challenges:

1. *Diversify the economy*: Reduce dependence on oil revenue by investing in other sectors like agriculture, manufacturing, and tourism.
2. *Improve infrastructure*: Invest in roads, power, and transportation to facilitate economic growth and attract foreign investment.
3. *Fight corruption*: Implement effective policies and enforcement to reduce corruption, which discourages investment and hinders economic progress.
4. *Promote entrepreneurship*: Support small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) through access to funding, training, and favorable policies.
5. *Invest in education and skills development*: Equip citizens with skills relevant to the modern economy, and improve access to quality education.
6. *Encourage foreign investment*: Create a business-friendly environment, simplify regulations, and offer incentives to attract foreign investors.
7. *Manage resources effectively*: Ensure transparency and accountability in resource allocation, and prioritize projects with high economic impact.
8. *Foster economic inclusion*: Implement policies to reduce poverty, inequality, and unemployment, and promote economic opportunities for all citizens.
9. *Improve macroeconomic management*: Maintain a stable exchange rate, control inflation, and manage debt effectively.
10. *Encourage regional development*: Implement policies to promote economic growth and development in all regions, reducing regional disparities.

By implementing these measures, the Nigerian government can help alleviate economic challenges, promote sustainable growth, and improve the standard of living for its citizens.

There is nothing like famine.
I think is inflation and inadequate control of economy prices and policies.

One moderator post about life in kebbi some three weeks ago discussing how food is cheap and much in quantity in his mother's mama-put restaurant.

Leave protest alone and use your energies to do meaningful things... like farming. Rain is falling now. Make hay while the sun shines. Even if he reverses subsidy, it will have little impact on the prices of commodities. Fact is that there are too little people producing food for the over 150million people they claim live in Nigeria. It cannot work. It is not sustainable. No nation can survive it and no government is going to farm for you. Farming is the only sector that can employ and enrich as many people as are willing to go into it. All these debate on subsidy and minimum wages are just noise and distractions. You people should wake up please. Do not let this rainy season pass by or else we will really be in trouble. cry
