58k at where? Maybe Benin republic......
Seems this thread is for me to testify, I just bought a bag yesterday evening at 74k at Berger Lagos state and I have to walk round like 4 shops for the cheapest, so I don't know what punch is talking about. It has actually reduced because the last time I bought in February it was actually 82k but to say it's 58k i think that's a lie or a paid propaganda.
Meanwhile, it was less than 20k before APC came to power and about 25k when Tinubu assumed office

You have a COMPREHENSION issue..

There are a lot of "unbranded" rice,unlike Big Bull,Stallion etc that are sold cheaper,in suburban area or villages/hinterlands....and they are actually destoned and polished but done semi manually..

I bought rice in Igedeland in Benue jusr last week..coming from a local mill for 53k...and it's good .

Stop arguing like a small boy..

50kg bag of rice was less than 8k in Jonathan’s istration before the real enemies of Nigeria took it to over 100k.
The only thing Tinubu is good at is propaganda and playing senseless politics with people's lives.
Mumu what was minimum wage during Jonathan, paltry #18k. What is it now #70k. That's over 300%. Mumu will expect prices to go down while minimum wage goes up grin

Ode 18k was equivalent to 109 dollars in 2014
While your 70k naira today is just 44 dollars.
Numkskull how will you know that 18k in Jonathan’s 2014 has more value than 100k in Tinubu's 2015

The reduction is not even as a result of APC policies.
It was because India has surplus harvest do removed embargo on rice exportation, they further remove export tariff from Rice. So, it's now so cheap.
APC is still confused as ever. It's only defection into APC that concern them now.

We shall overcome them...

Flashback: How Bola Tinubu spoke highly of Buhari in 2015, named PDP ‘Poverty Development Party

National leader of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, Bola Tinubu had during the presidential campaign in 2015, referred to President Muhammadu Buhari as the only solution for the security and economic challenges facing Nigeria.

During a mega presidential rally, the former governor of Lagos State recalled how some powerful nations in the world returned to army generals when they were challenged, saying “Major General Buhari would revive Nigeria’s economy”.

He named the current opposition People’s Democratic Party, PDP as the “Poverty Development Party saying they had nothing to offer.

His words at the time were; “Every nation has a period of their own challenges, when America was challenged, they turned to one great man, their ex-military general, General Eisenhower. When the French were challenged, they turned to their general, Charles de Gaulle.

“When Britain was challenged, they turned to their general. Today, Nigeria is economically and physically challenged so we turn to General Muhammadu Buhari. He is the right man for the job. If you talk about military experience, he has it abundantly, he has courage, simplicity, he has it abundantly.

“If you talk about great determination, a combination of vision and ability to perform, honesty and integrity, he has it abundantly.

“I laugh when the incapable government, ‘Poverty Development Party’ PDP were talking. They have nothing again to say, they now want to question the qualifications of General Buhari and look for his certificate”.

Following the manifestos in 2015 which projected the APC presidential candidate as a ‘saviour’, Buhari defeated the then incumbent president, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan with Nigerians expecting a total change in security and economy.

Short gun kee u there for mentioning dollars. I'm I spending dollars here? As a civil servant that I was and I am. It was very very hard for me raising only #600k to by fairly used Toyota Camry during Jonathan time. How much was my salary annually by the 18k calculation? But now I can easily raise #3m to buy clean faily used Toyota camry. It is all about purchasing power not some dumb incomparable amount these goods are sold today. Have some economics sense bro cry

Lies ! Lies !! Lies !!! This is just media propaganda to manipulate the minds of the people to think APC is really working . Rice was 21k for long grain in 2021 and 30k before Tinubu came into power . He scattered everything with his Naira devaluation,subsidy removal ,high cost of fuel and electricity with high level of insecurity. A bag of rice which I bought today is 80k for long grain and 70k for short grain .

In former president Goodluck's time, a bag of rice was sold for eight thousand naira. I wonder why the loud ovation to something that ordinary ought to put shame on them. Mind you, what ever APC's can't destroy, doesn't exist.
