Stop Panic, Food Inflation A Global Phenomenon – Bwala Blasts Nigerians
Daniel Bwala, a former spokesman for Atiku Abubakar, the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the February 2023 presidential election, has described the rising cost of food in the country as a global phenomenon.
He said this in a post on X (formerly Twitter) on Monday
Bwala, who recently met with President Tinubu and declared his support to work with the All Progressives Congress (APC) administration, said he will accept any offer by the President because he promised to support his agenda.
Speaking on the prices of goods in the UK compared to Nigeria, he said a little bottle of palm oil is sold for N38,000 in the UK while hair cut in London equals N45,000.
He wrote: “Food inflation is global ohh. This small bottle of palm oil is sold for £20 pound sterling, i.e. 38k naira. Hair cut na 45k for London.
“The good news is that it is projected that global food inflation will drop by the end of this year. So cheer up my people.
“For those Naija people in the US and UK cursing @officialABAT on social media, what they are not telling you is that in the UK they can’t wait to chase Rishi Sunak and in the US, you already know what’s up with Joe Biden.
“There is no perfect President or perfect democracy, let nobody fool you. forget the noise, your presidential candidate could have done worse.”
He emphasised that President Tinubu is working hard to find solutions to the problems he met on the ground.
“President Tinubu is working hard to find solutions to our problems created over decades of Mal-administration.
“Let us have faith in our country and our leaders and offer solutions rather than insults,” he wrote.
