Warra Hell! Garri Price Sky Rockets

"Are you serious, that means trouble for all of us". This was the statement my sister made that got me rushing from my room to the palour to find out what was happening. The one that I heard her say trouble so, I wanted to be alert.

When I got there, I asked what the exclamation (of are you serious) was all about.When I was told, me sef shock, I said "warra hell".

What was I surprised about? There has being a serious, sky rocket increase in the price of garri. Yes our local Garri ooo. A basket that use to cost between N350-N400 naira, now goes for N1000.
Can you imagine, this is more than 100% increment o, I still find it hard to believe that garri is now this expensive.

The sellers are saying its as a result of flood and increment in the price of fuel. Inflation is staring at us in the face, if garri can increase, what won't increase? It's Alarming.

I pray inflation doesn't drive us to the extent it did Zimbabwe(I have blogged about Zimbabwe's inflation rate before,see it HERE).

Now people would start full practice of the garri multiplication theory.

Garri Multiplication Theory: Put garri in a bowl, add water and leave for few minutes. The garri would rise abi swell, and viola what do you have, double quantity of garri
