Buhari is just grinding this country down. FreeKogi2 HarassBuhariOutOfLondon BuhariMustGo EndSARS

This is good morning. Unless we stop our financial rascality better days are far

Omo ehn! Not one single thing is working in this country. What exactly are the senate and HoA doing?

I expected it, a country that printed and shared 60 billion naira last month. This further validates GovernorObaseki's statement on 'printing and sharing money', to make up the month of March budget allocation. May God help us 🙏🙏🙏

That's unfortunate for us

Wahala be like government that prints money whenever they wants to shop ..

Thanks to Buhari

Is it just in four years or ever since independence? When has inflation rate in Nigeria reached 19%?

We lack leaders at all levels who don't have the competencies required to run a nation. Hence, d economy wl continually nosedive. Competent leadership is a sine qua non to a vibrant and strong economy. Fix leadership and it wl be freedom for the geographical entity called Nigeria

Isn't this under-reported? Just last week I was at the store to re stock few stuffs. I got spaghetti 5pcs, a roll of golden morn, a roll of satchet custard, a dozen of Hollandia milk and a Tin of Bournvita. Piam 6,000. I didn't even need a nylon to take those stuffs into the car
