Media personality Nedu has spoken about the rising cost of living in Nigeria, saying the country is becoming increasingly difficult for ordinary Nigerians to survive in.
In a video shared online, Nedu said Nigerians work and receive their salaries, but the money often disappears quickly due to the rising cost of basic needs.
He mentioned school fees, house rent, food, transportation, fuel and healthcare as some of the expenses putting pressure on families.
Nedu also said the economic situation could push some people into desperate decisions, including hurting or betraying others. He added that such actions were not necessarily because they were “born wicked”, but because survival had become a daily struggle.
He further noted that Nigerians were dealing with other challenges, including insecurity, kidnapping, difficulties accessing healthcare and uncertainty about the future.
Despite the challenges, Nedu said Nigerians continued to wake up and try to survive, urging people not to allow a difficult economy to make them lose their humanity.
He also appealed to those in positions of power to create an economy where hard work could translate into a better quality of life, saying Nigerians deserved to provide for their families with less stress and live with more hope.
