Nnamdi Nwabasili, alias N6, a rapper and on-air personality, has described how the Bola Tinubu-led administration’s severe economic policies forced him to close his perfume business.

@akintollgate: “Very sad!”
@onlineguru__: “Sorry to hear this is a sad situation. The only business still thriving in Nigeria now is Food business because no matter how bad the economy is people will still eat.”
@zion_lion9ja: “Import has reduced drastically but they will not tell us. Then I ask, what is consuming our FX? Corruption, money laundering.”
@mrblingy: “Person go chop first before smelling nice. It’s a blood bath out there.”
@puffshow1: “So sad, but you can still bounce back, source for locally made perfumes and investment 70% of your existing capital. Let start patronizing made in Nigeria. Let fight this FX together.”
@smldite: “Closed 12 of my barbing saloon businesses only in 2024. I’m just tired.”
