    Tinubu Needs to Fix the Prices of These Food Items ASAP

    Fuel subsidy? Exchange rates? We see you, Jagaban, but focus, please. We want to eat good, and it won’t happen if egg sells at ₦100 and sardine at ₦600. Fix up.

    We just want our new president to reduce the costs of these food items within his first 100 days in office before we die of starvation. We’re not asking for too much from our new president.

    Remember when you could get an egg for ₦20 or ₦30? This ₦100 madness has to stop.

    Turkey

    It’s so wrong that turkey is now a protein option reserved for festive seasons in many households. Jagaban, please, run it for us. Let’s go back to the days of having a kilo of turkey for ₦1700.

    Beverages

    Forget fit fam, the ₦200 price tag on Coke, Fanta, Pepsi and the rest is probably why people now drink water more.

    Noodles

    Have you seen any pack of noodles going for ₦50? Exactly. The status quo needs to return ASAP.

    Garri

    A paint bucket of garri has no business being anywhere above ₦1k. We don’t have an exact figure in mind but definitely below a thousand.

    Bread

    How did we get to the point where the price of sliced and agege bread are rubbing shoulders? Is this the upside down?

    Pure water

    Pure water needs to return to the days of ₦5 per sachet, and ₦100 per bag.

    Margarine

    Everyone involved in making us pay over ₦1k for margarine must answer for their crimes. 

    Sardine

    ₦600 for a tin of sardines is criminal, and we’ve had enough. It might come in a golden tin, but IT. IS. NOT. GOLD. ₦200 or nothing, Mr President.
