| A serving of pocket-friendly okro vegetable soup. |
This soup tastes really really good believe me. I enjoyed it yesterday, ate some more leftovers today. Okro lovers will enjoy this with pounded yam, semo, garri, amala, tuwo and all forms of fufu. I want to see how one can eat healthy and delicious with less.
The exchange rate is not smiling at all. If you are abroad, you spend just a hundred Dollars on lunch, do you know that you have just eaten about thirty thousand naira in one meal?
God save Nigeria, may we never get to that low where we need to carry money in ghana must go bags to go grocery shopping. You may be eating three square meals daily without even scratching your head but truth remains that people are really really suffering in
this country.
