Nigerians Who Can't Afford New Fuel Price Should Trek Or Buy Bicycles - Omokri

Former Presidential aide, Reno Omokri, has asserted that Nigeria’s economic condition is not the worst on earth.

Naija News reports that Reno, in a post via Twitter on Wednesday, claimed that many countries would die to have Nigeria’s economic conditions.

Giving reasons for his opinion, the social-political activist gave an analysis of Ghanian living conditions and that of Nigeria.

He also admitted that things are not easy in Nigeria, and the government must increase the minimum wage and work with the private sector to improve the economy.

He tweeted: “Minimum wage in Ghana is GHS446 or $40.
“Minimum wage in Nigeria is ₦30,000 or $38.

“A litre of fuel in Ghana costs GHS12.486 or $1.14
“A litre of fuel in Nigeria costs ₦617 or $0.78

“A bottle of coke in Ghana is GHS7, or $0.62.
“A bottle of coke in Nigeria is ₦250, or $0.31.

“Nigerian universities tuition average ₦50000 or $65.
“Ghanaian universities tuition average GHS17,145 or $1503.

“Please Fact-Check me: Things are not easy in Nigeria. The government must increase the minimum wage and work with the private sector to improve the economy. Having said that, Nigeria is not the worst country on Earth. Quite the opposite.

“There are many benefits to being a Nigerian. Many countries would die to have the economic conditions we have in Nigeria. Things are not perfect. They can be a lot better. But Nigeria is still a great nation”
