Residents of the Apo community in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) of Abuja are facing economic crises due to the rapidly rising cost of living.

Mrs Stella, a market vendor, revealed that the rising food prices have adversely affected her business.

Despite the challenges, Mrs Stella is determined and is actively seeking alternative suppliers with competitive rates to sustain her business.
Similarly, Mr. Chidi, a resident of the Apo community, Federal Capital Territory (FCT) shared his distress and painted a stark picture of the daily struggles faced by families in the area.

Mr Chidi emphasized the impact on food prices and transportation expenses and stressed the need for stringent budgetary measures to cope with the financial strain.
As families adapt to these harsh economic realities, the community is bracing itself for further challenges ahead. With no immediate relief in sight, residents are calling for urgent interventions to address the root causes of the escalating cost of living and alleviate the burden on households struggling to keep up.
