ABUJA – Reno Omokri has offered best solution to increasing cost of food items to Nigerians against the backdrop of plethora of complaints about hardship ravaging the country.
The self acclaimed ‘Table Shaker’ who took to his X account to suggest what to do in the issue of runaway inflation said resort to use of alternative made in Nigeria or local substitute will go a long way to ameliorate the hardship.
Reno said:
“If the high Dollar is placing wheat above the reach of Nigerians, let us make our bread with cassava flour. I ate cassava bread for two years in Aso Rock with President Jonathan. It is delicious. And it is made in Nigeria. When you can no longer afford foreign rice, eat beans. If beans are expensive too, then consume potatoes from Plateau, yam from Benue, and Cocoyam from Delta.
“If you go to the market and Birdseye custard and Quaker Oats are out of your reach, reach for akamu, ogi, or pap. They have less preservatives and more vitamins. If Kerrygold butter is now triple the price, get maishanu from Fulanis selling cattle. It is the same as Kerrygold, only that it has no chemicals or hormones, like Kerrygold.
“Look, a made-in-Nigeria alternative exists for almost every foreign product you consume. There is enough in Nigeria for everybody’s need, but for everyone’s greed.
Drive with Innoson
Call with Glo
Build with Dangote
Eat with Nasco
Let us make Nigeria a prosumer nation. That means a country that consumes what it produces.
