- Indomie
A carton of indomie went up from N1, 400 to N2,400 and the smallest Indomie size went from N60 to N80. Yes my people, even our beloved Indomie was hit.
- Transportation
Transportation also took a massive hit as normal bus fares of N50 have gone up to N70 and the ones of N100 now N150. The aviation sector also has its fair share of inflation as local ticket prices that were formally as low as 12,000 now starts from N20,500 if you book in advance. Lagos to the USA that used to cost between N350,000 and N400, 000 now costs between N600,000 and N700,000, while Lagos – London flights have gone from N250,000 to minimum N400,000.
Hello, leggedis benz
- Auto sector
The automobile sector too is affected as Tokunbo (fairly used) vehicles that had price tags of between N500,000 and N600, 000 now sell for at least between N1.3 million and N1.5 million.
- Insecticides
Insecticides like Raid for example have even been affected as it now goes for N830 as opposed to N450
We have to look for ways to co-exist with mosquitoes, peacefully.
- Sanitary pad
Always sanitary pad (14 pieces) is now N600 – N650. It used to be between N250 – N350. Wanted to say pregnancy may just be the solution, but even the price of pregnancy has gone up …
- Condoms
Durex Condoms now go for N700. When it increased to N500 from N300, we complained. Now it is N700, wahala dey. Bobos will be skin-diving, and non-marital pregnancy rate will definitely increase. And STIs?
Nna, something must kill a man
