In today’s Nigeria, managing ₦100,000 for a whole month is no small feat. With inflation, rising fuel prices, electricity tariffs, and the ever-changing economy, this amount is barely enough for survival in many urban areas. Yet, for many Nigerians, especially entry-level workers, small business owners, and students, ₦100k is what they have to work with monthly.

So how exactly do people stretch ₦100,000 to meet their basic needs? Here’s a typical breakdown of how an average Nigerian might allocate their funds:

1. Rent — ₦25,000

Rent is usually the biggest monthly burden. If you’re not in Lagos or Abuja, you might find a self-contained apartment or one-room flat for ₦20k–₦30k monthly. For those in cities like Ibadan, Akure, or Enugu, shared spaces or more affordable buildings offer relief. In major cities, this amount might only cover a room in a face-me-I-face-you setup or a contribution towards shared rent.

Some even pay annual rent in bulk but mentally “deduct” the equivalent monthly amount when budgeting.

2. Feeding — ₦30,000

Food is a basic necessity, and ₦30k often covers staple foods like rice, garri, yam, beans, spaghetti, palm oil, and seasoning. For many, eating out is a luxury; most meals are cooked at home to cut costs. A simple breakfast of bread and tea, lunch of rice or swallow, and light dinner is the norm.

Protein (meat, fish, or eggs) is used sparingly, and families get creative with recipes to manage within budget.

3. Transportation — ₦10,000

Getting to work, school, or the market every day is a cost many can’t avoid. With high fuel prices, public transport fares have skyrocketed. Daily commuting in cities like Lagos or Port Harcourt could cost ₦300–₦700. A person spending ₦500 a day on transport could hit ₦10k in just 20 days.

Some cut down costs by trekking short distances or carpooling with neighbors.

4. Data & Airtime — ₦6,000

Life is online now — jobs, communication, news, entertainment. ₦5k–₦6k goes to mobile data and airtime. People opt for midnight browsing plans, small data bundles, or free Wi-Fi (if they’re lucky) to stay connected without overspending.

Even those not active on social media still need data for WhatsApp, mobile banking, and job hunting.

5. Electricity & Utilities — ₦5,000

Electricity isn’t stable, and most households mix NEPA power with generator use. Paying electricity bills, buying petrol or diesel for generators, and paying for water supply or sanitation eats into the budget. ₦5k barely covers it in many areas, especially with recent tariff hikes.

6. Miscellaneous / Emergency — ₦10,000

This is the cushion for unexpected expenses — buying drugs when someone falls sick, giving church offering, replacing a broken charger, or sending small money to family. Sometimes this portion disappears within the first week of the month.

People also dip into this for little indulgences like suya, snacks, or data top-ups.

So, is ₦100,000 Enough?

Truthfully, it’s not. For many Nigerians, ₦100k barely covers basic survival. There’s little to nothing left for savings, investment, or personal growth. The cost of living is high, and ₦100,000 no longer stretches like it did even five years ago.

Yet, people survive. Through side hustles, family , sharing costs with others, and a lot of prayer and discipline, many make it work — just barely.

If you earn more than ₦100k, be grateful. And if you’re earning ₦100k or less, you’re not alone — and your hustle is valid.

Just pause and ask yourself: Is there any religion more complete than Islam?

A religion that doesn't just guide us in prayer and fasting…
But teaches us how to sleep, eat, enter the restroom, and even what to say when engaging in intimacy with our spouse?

Yes, even in our most private and pleasurable moments, Islam offers us a beautiful and powerful du‘ā—words of protection and blessings.

The Prophet ﷺ said:

“If one of you says before having intercourse with his wife:

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ، اللَّهُمَّ جَنِّبْنَا الشَّيْطَانَ، وَجَنِّبِ الشَّيْطَانَ مَا رَزَقْتَنَا

Bismillah, Allahumma jannibna ash-shaytaan, wa jannib ash-shaytaana ma razaqtana

(‘In the name of Allah. O Allah, keep the Shayṭān away from us and keep the Shayṭān away from what You provide for us’)

…then if it is decreed that they should have a child, Shayṭān will never harm that child.”_
(Sahih al-Bukhari, 141)

But take note: by halal intercourse, we mean intimacy that occurs within the sacred bond of marriage.
In Islam, pre-marital and extramarital sex is strictly forbidden. It transgresses the limits set by Allah ﷻ and leads to immense spiritual and societal harm. Engaging in such acts invites the displeasure of our Creator.

Yet for the lawful couple, Islam elevates even this act of pleasure turning it into an act of worship, of blessing, and of reward.

Let us revive this beautiful Sunnah.
Let us honor the completeness of our Deen.
Islam is not just a religion; it is a way of life.

Really ?

As someone who has been on Nairaland for 16 years , here are my requests

1. We need a dislike button. It’s long overdue

2. DM option should be embedded directly on the site without the need to do this via exposing my email compulsorily . This is 2025 we really do need this feature on the site

3. Allow direct ing of videos albeit with a size restriction if you’re bothered about storage.

4. Can we have night mode feature please.

5. We need personalized feeds, where I can customize what I want to see

Those are all I can think about for now.

Fully in as someone who has been here a long time also

😆 🤣...you are the one that need serious help if you think[b] you can sue anyone[/b] for character assassination for using a word that does not have a meaning the judge can universally relate the meaning of anything that has assasinated anyones character.

All the judge needs to ask is what is the universal meaning of "Atago", if it can not be shown or proven in any English dictionary(which is what is used in Nigeria laws and courts), the case will not even last 2 minutes before it is dismissed.

You are even dafter than I thought




Have you heard of the word "CONTEXT" before?

Don't worry, wait till the[b] senate president [/b]caches you.

Blazetrailer:
You are an illiterate.

You must prove in court that "Atago" is character assassination.

To do that, you must show that Atago means a(not street or colloqual meaning ) a globally accepted meaning that assasinated the character of Akapio


You need an urgent help if you think someone is an illitrate because they don't understand ibo. Besides, you think that other don't understand your languege apart from you. Continue!

You have to be sued for character assassination unless you have a proof of what you are alleging.
