Speaking about how he’s adjusting to the country’s current hardships, Uti Nwachukwu said:

UTI NWACHUKWU: The country is pretty hard now, there’s no one that is not feeling it. I guess it’s easier for me because I’m single, so I’m not trying to provide for a wife and children. So yes, I’m feeling it, but you go adjust yourself. I have adjusted myself a lot. With my fuel, for me not to feel it, everytime it gets to like three-quarter tank, I go and fill it up again, and still it’s like 13 to 15 to 16 thousand naira, you get what I mean. So that’s what I’ve done.

Because if I allow it get to the bottom, I don’t think I will ever fill it [laughs]. No, I will fill it, but it will chook me. And then with food, I have never been a waster of food before so I don’t waste food. I don’t live a frivolous lifestyle, I’ve never been that person to splurge on things or anything like that. I dey cut my coat according to my size. So if it’s not necessary, I won’t spend on it. However, the only way it’s affecting me is you know, where I spend my money is travelling. So now that tickets are high, before you travel, chai you go count how many million just for ticket, you’ve not counted hotel, you’ve not counted your shopping and your tuffing over there. So for me, I think that’s where it’s affected me. E dey pinch me now if I buy ticket. E dey pinch me well well! But yeah, because I’m single, it’s been a lot easier for me to adjust.

So I’ve adjusted and I pray I don’t have to adjust again. We’re tired of adjusting. It have do. We repent from all our sins, whatever we did Baba God, abeg, we dey beg you, please from our hearts, our minds, our actions, let the meditations of our hearts be acceptable unto you, please forgive us!
