Twitter comrades are lamenting about the amount that the dollar sold for on Wednesday. Ever since the fuel subsidy removal, different complaints have been springing up from Nigerians due to how difficult the economy has become.

Dollar selling for as high as #850/$1 has added salt to the injuries and many people couldn't stop complaining.

One user, @chude_, said: "Dollar is now N815. Fuel is now N540. Bag of Cement is now N4800. A 114% Salary increase for elected politicians and judges. Renewed hope for Politicians. Renewed Shege for the poor masses. May this Administration favor me & my family IJN."


Another user said "You forgot electricity tariff. His promise to tax us more is becoming a reality."


One user, @Christmt470, tweeted, "Hahahaha dem go get sense by force after their own person dealt with everybody regardless of tribe and religion or political affiliation. All of us Dey collect Woto Woto, na only politicians n their associates they enjoy their govt while the average citizen bear the burdens "


@Itsyungkell said "They are now quiet very significantly. I don't see their shalaye anymore..they are seeing the reality..thank God P.O case is still in court..there is hope for good governance."


@imbigdangerous: "When I said it’s all showmanship, you thought I was hating? There is no Dollar Liquidity in the Market. Let the Naira breef, don’t suffocate it. Agbados will now understand the Economics of Renewed Shege. Can you build something on nothing?"


One user even said he's missing Buhari's administration, "When he said he will continue from where Buhari stopped, we didn’t get it!
Nigeria is the only place yesterday is always better than today. We’re gradually missing Bubu "



A recent tweet from Paul Okoye, aka, rudeboy concerning the latest dollar to naira rate has gotten numerous comments from Nigerians.
