Hitting the Street is Inevitable

Everywhere you go to from Lagos to Kano to Port-Harcourt etc. people are saying the same thing in Nigeria they are crying about the high cost of goods and services in the country. As at January rice was sold for NGN 45,000 and now It will surprise you to know that a 50kg bag of rice is NGN 68,000. A bag of Sugar was NGN 62,000 and now it NGN 75,000 the same thing for Fuel, Tomatoes, Cement etc. all increment was within a space of one month.

My First question is what would be the prices of these commodities in December?

 Is the president trying to pass a message to the people. We are very good at adjusting and praying to God that already have heard us and bless our lands. The government don't seem to care. Just recently custom duty was increased from NGN 1300 a dollar to NGN 1400 to a dollar. The custom duty will drive increase in goods imported and it is the consumer that bears the cost.

When are we going to reach our Limit as Nigerians?

Savings worth nothing again especially when you convert it to dollar. Minimum wage cannot buy a bag of rice. Is it not time to hit the street and demand for better leadership and governance. We have three more years to go
