Nigerians reportedly turn to selling sachet Fanta as they attempt to cope with economic hardship.
The video on this was shared on the social networking site, X, by a netizen identified as @OurFavOnlineDoc.
With the rising cost of things, soft drink sellers have attempted to reduce the cost of Fanta for those who can no longer afford to buy a full bottle.
A vendor was seen in the video pouring out some into a slender nylon, which she gave to a customer.

@qroniqls said: “Not sure that’s what she’s doing though.
As things are hard in naija, fizzy drinks shd not be a priority. After all they are unhealthy.
With this economic hardship, it’s good riddance to bad rubbish.
Aproko water to the rescue”
@stmajoraa said: “People must find ways to survive”
@thealexisJnr said: “What nonsense. Must you drink Fanta. Why putting it in a sachet. Who say Nigerians don’t have #500 to buy Fanta? We are just making things out.”
@flourish007 said: “Let’s be honest.
Since 2015, Nigerians have been trapped in a cycle of hardship. Yet many victims of this system are still eager to vote for the same party again in 2027.
It often seems like Nigerians have become accustomed to suffering—choosing to defend their oppressors while attacking those who speak up on their behalf.
When the people are truly ready, they’ll remove APC from office.”
@iykeinfos remarked: “That’s improvising… we done adjust sharp sharp, so maybe na the next increasement go move Nigerians 🤷🏾♂️Maybe or they’ll still adjust again. Failed Country producing Failed People together and people are happily calling themselves Proud and Patriotic Nigerians.”
