Prices up, Sizes down

The issue is not that the prices of items in the market have gone up. The size of those items went down alongside.

The smallest size of Indomie noodles is retailed at 120 naira, against 60 naira from last year, but it comes out from fire looking like one and half pack.

If you live on Lagos Island or environs, you’ll be able to relate with the size of sachet water around here. It has always been small but in the last 6 months since a bag became 200-250 naira, the sachets grew smaller.

Are these manufacturers playing or what?

If you want to increase your price, for goodness sakes, leave the size of item alone.

I think they are just greed:y people who know that they can get away with whatsoever as long as they are in Nigeria.

We need to start boycotting all the companies doing this bull$hit.

ONE NIGHT

They met at a bar Him a fine, reserved young man Her a bubbly young woman Once she set her eyes on him She knew she wanted him So she went and she sat and they talked About life, love, family, work, About Everything They talked their souls away Late into the night It felt like they were old friends They bonded And when they raised their heads It was midnight And they were alone 'Let's go to your place' she suggested She could not bear to spend a second without him "Oh No! " Yours will be fine They left in the darkness of the night The security man opened the gate 'Welcome Aunty' He said "Thank you" She opened the door to her house and they walked in, He gazed into her eyes Her feet were unsteady She closed her eyes and waited And come did he The taste of his lips was a mixture of orange juice and alcohol and cream It drove her mad Carefully he kissed her And when his hands went to t...

Lagos Na Wa : 5

I write this with my face covered. Please don't laugh at me. Remember Lagos Na Wa Episode 1 where I shared the tale of how I almost was taken to Seme border? If you didn't read it, go through my wall. It is some where there. So after the Lagos tour, my rectum was dilated and ready to spill meaning I was pressed. I wanted to poop. Jesu! The urge was so strong and as soon as the bus entered the Island, it intensified. I carried my bum bum with the poo ready to drop and sat in the bus. I got to Elegushi bus stop, alighted. A man I asked for directions to pointed at ahead of him and said that was the gate of the Estate I was looking for. I ignored the Okada men at the bus stop and started trekking because I was scared of what the speed and bumps would do. That turned out to be a bad decision. Left, right, right and left. No gate insight. I convinced myself that I could do it. God knows I couldn't. My ancestors were just la...

The Error of 'Don't you Know you are a Girl? '

Part 1 Dear Society, When you want to correct a female going wrong, especially a child, do not remind her that she is a girl. Do not tell her to stop because she is a girl. Tell her to stop and change because her actions are wrong. When she wears a skirt and sits with her legs wide open, tell her to close them because it is wrong to sit with your undies exposed. When she talks arrogantly, correct her because it is wrong to speak that way. Don't tell her to be polite because girls should be. Sensible humans are polite. Politeness is not gender specific. When she dresses indecently, correct the wrongness of the dressing. Don't make it about her gender. Decency doesn't apply to one gender. When she is unable to cook at 18, remind her that it is only reasonable for an adult to be capable of making food for his/her survival. No gender needs the skill more. When she rides her car in a rough manner, remind her that wrong driving has sent many to their...
