“How are people eating?” TOYIN LAWANI laments high cost of living in Nigeria (VIDEO)

Saturday, June 13, 2026 - Fashion entrepreneur Toyin Lawani has expressed concern over the rising cost of food items in Nigeria.

In a video shared online, she questioned how many Nigerians are coping with the current prices of basic food items, describing the situation as difficult for many families.

According to her, a small basket of Irish potatoes now costs about N30,000, while four pieces of plantain sell for around N2,500.

“How are people eating? How are people fending? Things are ridiculously expensive,” she said.

Toyin added that even N1 million no longer goes far when shopping for food, saying, “You carry one million naira to market, it will buy you nothing.”
