  12. In this country of ours,if the price of goods goes up,it never comes down. I guess we've so gotten use to it that we manage cus even when you complain,it changes nothing.

    God has just been faithful.

  13. Egg of 850 is now 1100. The annoying one is that federal government stopped importation of corn which makes d cost of the chicken feeds skyrocketed. May God help us in this country, I am scared.

  14. And Aisha B want to blow taxpayers money from shopping trip to buy wedding clothes in these hard times for naijas? Use SM to force a small wedding and humble her!

  15. It's really tough to be a Nigerian. Do you know that people rebag Nigerian rice and sell at the foreign rice price. I don't understand our government at all and I'm tired of complaining because I know nothing will be done. Why shut the boders when there is still foreign rice everywhere? shutting the border just made it more expensive and even the price of the local rice is more expensive than the price of the foreign rice (before the shutting of the boders) our government should be able to regulate the prices of goods and services.

    The way money vanish ehn.its tiring.

    Transport fare is another wahala on it's own.
    May God help us.

  16. SDK, it is the high Exchange rate that is responsible for it.
    Even Clothes and other stuff are affected. The foreign rice I buy is now 28000 per bag in Ibadan here while one Congo is now #1000 or #1050 in some cases.

  17. It is only in Nigeria that food prices sky rockets when the borders are shut down.
    You would think that imported farm produce would be more expensive than locally produced ones..
    But, the reverse is the case in this country..
    I hate everybody that voted in these clueless government with zero sympathy for the common man..
    Stop shouting "God help us" because our Almighty God is honestly tired that y'all have vehemently refused to use your God given brains to vote out these corrupt ancestors..
    I have serious phobias going to the market now because you can bet your sweet ass that you are definitely gonna be spending more on household commodity than what you paid for the last time, our groceries bills have gotten higher!!.
    With this Buhari economy, nah to born 2- 3 children sure pass even if you are a middle class citizen..
    Chizzy j..

  20. Everything is on the high. Went to the market yesterday with a list of things to buy and prices,turns out the prices I wrote was useless.

    Beans is now 350-450 per mudu (250-300 b4)
    Corn us now 350 per mudu (200 b4)
    Wheat and g/corn is also 350 per mudu (250 b4).
    Spaggtti is now 220.
    Tiny eggs 1000 for a crate
    Cassava flour is now 200.

    No more writing list and prices for me, cos I was just arguing and getting angry anyhow.

  21. It's becoming more frustrating to just feed here.

    Rice, Yam,garri and the rest are just too expensive that I almost burst into tears the last time we bought rice.

    Feeding six people ain't easy at all not to talk of the lil or no pay for us teachers.


    God please bless me so much so that I will never worry about food.

    Amen
