A picture of a Nigerian man tied to luggage in the boot of a car, attempting to evade the rising cost of transport fares, highlights the country’s economic crisis.
Due to the removal of fuel subsidies and inflation, transport fares have surged, placing immense pressure on low-income Nigerians. The incident reflects the desperate measures people are taking to cope with the increased cost of living.
It also underscores the need for urgent government intervention, including transport subsidies and poverty alleviation programs, to reduce the strain on vulnerable citizens and address the broader transportation and economic challenges.
