The respondents, in separate interviews with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Tuesday, lamented the high cost of living, claiming they could hardly cater for their family needs.
Others, however, believed the situation was getting better with the improvement of the Naira to Dollar exchange rate. A civil servant in Bayelsa, Goodness Ebibai, said he could no longer adequately stock his home with food, fearing that it might get worse with the school resumption.
According to Ebibai, things have become very difficult for him as it is daily becoming nearly impossible to provide quality meals for his family.
