While growing up things were quite easy, an I also know that life was also easy for the common man, not until 2018 that things start changing for the worst, from then till now the rate at which inflation have struck my country to an all time high is so alarming.
  Everyday price of things keeps on changing but the salaries of a civil servants still remain the same, the money that we use too feed from, buy water, pay rent, pay for light an even save from, now it can't even service our monthly needs for even half of the month.
 Most times I feel for people that have many children because too get basic needs in today's economy is very difficult,
  the annoying part is that the government an it agencies are doing nothing or less about the cost control of goods and services in the state.
An this has created a torn in the lives of many as situations keeps on getting worse by the day.
Am wondering if it's same experience in other part of the world.



Trade by barter was an easy and effective  means that enhanced good living,during that time the cost of living was at ease because people gave out what they had to get what they wanted in return...then the cost of living wasn't killing the living  because  buying and selling was made easy and as such life wasn't as difficult.

In recent years everything changed as the economy of the country deflated so as to affecting the lives of citizens  in cause of Borders locked down,no empowerment, no increment of salaries  and no payment of most pensioniers, no scholarships, no business developments in certain  undeveloped areas to enhance job opportunities....all of these contributed to the cost of living killing the living because the country is not developing/growing economically.

It would be a great achievement if the current government can come to the aid of citizens and make life better  for everyone out there ,by providing job opportunities, generating business developments in undeveloped areas,opening of borders etc...so as to stop the cost of living killing the living.
