Cool FM on-air-personality Freeze has commented about the rising prices of food in the country, and the hardship Nigerians are facing.
In his latest Instagram write-up, Freeze praises the government for tackling corruption but is also worried about the poor state of the economy.
"I thought
corruption was the worst thing a nation can endure until I saw the
suffering and poverty my people are going through. A month ago, a keg of
vegetable oil was N4,200, one week later it rose to N4,800" wrote the OAP.
He further wrote "I
know the government is trying to fix Nigeria, and I know there is a
light at the end of the tunnel, but what about those that will die of
hunger and lack, inside the tunnel, never to reach the light? Everything
is going up and salaries are coming down, companies are shutting down
and with the airlines folding up, transportation is becoming crazy. I
look around me and all I see is suffering and hunger."
Additionally, he said "Yes,
I am proud of the fact that Nigeria is not as corrupt as it used to be,
but is this 'famine' the progress we are seeking? Is it really better
than the corruption we did away with? What do you guys think?"
