Garri is now sold for N4,500 – Nigerians query Tinubu as old and new prices of food emerge

Prices of food under Tinubu’s government

Nigerians have expressed dissatisfaction with the current prices of food items since President Bola Tinubu took office.

Since Tinubu was sworn in as President and announced the removal of fuel subsidy, prices of goods and commodities have skyrocketed, causing discomfort for many Nigerians across the country.

Fuel prices have increased, food prices have soared, and the economy has raised concerns, prompting calls for the government to address hunger.

In a photo circulating online, a list showing the previous and current prices of food was listed.
