  10. This is mere book work, the reality is worse every product has very high price tag now. Someone even used her daughter to collect rice for her other 4 children. She went to the shop with her daughter collected rice and some ingredients. She told the shop owner that the girl should wait there that she wants to get other things and pay when she comes back…during closing time the shop owner took the child to the police then the traced the woman only to find out from her that she did trade by batter with the girl to feed the family. Hunger is in the land.

    1. Sorry dear. nBs is unable to do this as it is beyond the scope of their work. You'd need to consult the CBN or MoF for that.
      Unfortunately, the FG are yet to announce our exist strategy so it is difficult for us to forecast the length of time this recession will take. It is my hope that a sound plan will be drawn up and the populace will be enlightened further so we know how long this suffering will last.

      If this doesn't happen within the next 60days, I'd have no choice but to join the PDP in its demand for Mr President's resignation
