Recession is not just a word, as the assertions below will reveal. Mrs. Obiageli Ezekwesili, co-founder of Transparency International, has asked Nigerians what they are doing to adjust to the recession.
Here’s what they had to say:
I wish to curate the best ideas that citizens have adopted in adjusting to the Recession. Do YOU have any? Use,#MyRecessionAdjustmentIdeas.?

@obyezeks @je_mc2 @obyezeks Eat food that doesn't dissolve on time. E.g. Eat Fufu & continually drink water! #MyRecessionAdjustmentsIdeas

I boil my borehole water and drink. I can spend the money for buying 'pure water or CWAY' on more important things.

Stop eating out, if possible, buy foodstuff in bulk, Boiling and storing water for drinking is good, it must not be bottle water.

Breastfeed longer. Bone infant formula. Gruel meals and pap are good complementary feeds. Stop infant formula. https://t.co/nFl3O9V1DD

Consume less. Waste less. Consider collecting "dog food" from restaurants. Consider eating "dog food". Or eat the dog.
