A Nigerian man has called on his countrymen to protest over the change in the price of fufu in his locality.

 

The man lamented that the high price of the traditional food, fufu, which is now being sold as high as N100 per wrap is unacceptable.

 

According to him, this is the last straw.

 

Lamenting on Twitter, he wrote:

 

“Fufu is now 100 naira per wrap. This is my last straw and the camel has died. If you all won’t protest, I’ll do it alone. You can’t charge such a high price for fufu and expect me to stay calm.”
