    Those who made cost of food beyond the reach of the common man should be blamed for this unfortunate incident.

    The World Bank and IMF advised that removing petrol subsidies and devaluing the naira would solve Nigeria's economic problems. Nigerians are enjoying the benefits of the advice in hyperinflation and the cost of food crisis. The deaths of citizens in stampedes are but a few examples of how ordinary Nigerians are paying a heavy price for the deceitful advice of predatory organisations using compromised politicians.
