Nigeria Hardship: “A five-litre of vegetable oil is N7,000” – Nigerian women questions Tinubu

• Nigerians are increasingly expressing their need for President Tinubu’s assistance amid ongoing economic hardships.

• Two women expressed sadness over rising living costs, including one who voted for President Tinubu during the 2023 elections, in an interview with Guardian.

As the country continues to experience economic hardship, more and more Nigerians are voicing their need for President Tinubu’s intervention.

Two women who spoke with Guardian highlighted their displeasure with the growing expense of life. During the 2023 elections, one of the women who stated she voted for President Tinubu stated;

‘’President Bola Tinubu, we all voted for you. We thought you would assist us. We are hungry! You can see that I have a load on my head. I have trekked a long distance with it. The money is not enough for the fare to my destination. Please pity the poor/masses. The masses came out to vote for you. I voted for you so you could win. We are hungry!”

In a separate interview, a different woman stated:

We are hungry! A tin of rice now sells for N1,200. A five-litre of vegetable oil is N7,000. Tinubu, is that good? Everything is expensive. We are hungry. Pity the poor. Have mercy on us, Have mercy on us. So that we don’t let us die of hunger. Don’t let us suffer”
