Senator representing the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Ireti Kingibe, has expressed concern over the worsening living conditions in Nigeria, stating that citizens are increasingly overwhelmed by daily survival challenges.
Speaking during an appearance on Prime Time on Arise Television, the lawmaker highlighted rising insecurity, economic hardship, and declining public services as major issues affecting Nigerians.
Kingibe noted that food insecurity has reached unprecedented levels, while taxes have become burdensome, with expectations of further increases. She also pointed to persistent electricity challenges and deteriorating communication services as signs of systemic decline.
