What can NGN500 do for you?
The above question is a great way to start a debate anywhere right now.
You know how comparing items can sometimes put things into perspective? Well, let’s visualize exactly what NGN500 can do for us today.
Currently, NGN500 cannot buy 1GB of MTN data. It can’t buy a loaf of sliced bread, a movie ticket, bathroom slippers, a can of sardines, or even a filling meal.
In Lagos, Nigeria, today, NGN500 could buy you only a few small items, like some street food, a small bottle of water, or a piece of fruit, depending on the market prices.
Here’s a more detailed breakdown of what we might get:
Food: A small portion of street food like akara, a small piece of suya, or roasted corn, boli, eggroll. A small bottle of water or a small bag of plantain chips. A few pieces of fruit like oranges, bananas, or mangoes.
Transportation: Depending on the distance, it might be enough for a short ride in a tricycle (keke) or a bus, but it’s unlikely to cover a long distance.
Other: A few small items from a local market (crayfish, vegetables), a small pack of biscuits, gum, or a few sweets. That’s about it!
However, with that same little NGN500, you can Chat with a Doctor on the Whispa App for ANY health concern. Totally confidential, affordable, and judgement-free! That’s excellent value for money, right?
Like, you can literally consult with a Doctor via chat from this mobile phone you’re reading this mail on and get professional insights and advice for the price of one eggroll.
