        Mr @NGRPresident, Price controls distorts supply and causes scarcity, which leads to loss of confidence and economic recession.

        To understand how low/fixed prices cause scarcity try selling brand new Mercedes cars for N100k, see what happens.

        why should @Buhari not feel that way. A person without even a school certificate. What does he know about simple economics.
