According to Ahmad, the cement seller told him the price of a bag of cement had been reduced to N7,800. The cement seller, therefore, offered to return a balance of N400 on each bag to the customer due to the reduced price.
Ahmad said on X: “Today I bought Cement at a rate of ₦8,200/bag, now, the seller called and said the price has been reduced to ₦7,800 so he will refund ₦400 for each bag. If not in the NORTH, where could this happen in Nigeria?” See his post below: Reactions as cement sells for N7,800 @JaxTalker said:
