The way the rapid increase in the price of goods is skyrocking is becoming alarming, because just of recently
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.
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
It's sad to say that in just mere 9 months of Tinubu in office, the country has been forced to experience a All-Time-High hardship which we did expected, but not too soon, and the manner it is today, because I'm sure all through Buhari's 8 years in office, never did we have a nation wide hardship and rapid increase in the price of goods the way it is, because looking at how rapid the prices of goods are increasing, without a substantiating increase in minimum wage, as it's now high time the Federal government take prompt action to address this national menace, before it's too late, as there is a high chance if price keep skyrocketing, then people are likely to protest in mass.
