The ex-wife of billionaire businessman Musa Danjuma, Caroline Hutchins Danjuma, has lamented over the economic hardship.
Taking to her Instagram page, she revealed that she visited the Sunday market yesterday, and she was left saddened by the pieces of foodstuff. According to her, she used to go there with her grandma.
Sharing her market plight, she questioned how Nigerians are coping as she noted how a tuber of yam is 10k, paint bucket of potatoes N9k, bag of rice 85k, Avocado pear 1k/1.5k. She revealed that the trader wasn’t smiling, so she couldn’t ask for a discount.
Caroline stated that she was so sad that she had to shop for her domestic staff inclusive and wasn’t so keen on pricing in the market; however, she felt bad for the masses.
“I went to Sunday market yesterday, I used to go there with my grandma, nostalgic. Hmmm. How are you all coping? A tuber of yam 10k, a small paint bucket of potatoes 9k, a bag of rice 85k, avocado pear 1k/1.5k (the woman wasn’t smiling before I asked for a discount). Two pieces of Totus Fish 5k. How are you all coping? I was soooo sad I started shopping for my domestic staff inclusive. How are you all coping? I wasn’t so keen on pricing in the market; I just felt bad for the masses.
Everything is expensive. It is well with us.
Just want to take out time to check up on you all today. Maybe we need group sessions for mental and emotional therapy; I am willing to start it up with some of you…
Sending you all big hugs. The sun will soon shine on us all”.
Similarly, Nkechi had lamented after spending N150k on a few foodstuffs at Sunday market in Ogba. She questioned what was the way forward, as she noted how Nigerians aren’t complaining about the economy anymore as she questioned if they are comfortable with the hardship.
