Lady displays kettle purchased in 1977

In the clip, the lady identified as @debbiesocials, stated that the kettle was bought for six naira, a sum that seemed almost unbelievable given the current economic climate.

She fondly recalled how the kettle had been her father’s favourite, used for years before being retired.

In her words:

“47 years old kettle bought in 1977 for 6 naira. My daddy bought this kettle for N6. Growing up, this was his favourite water jug. We stopped using it a long time ago. It has even rusted. How old are you and what can N6 buy for you in 2024.

“This is what a 47 years old kettle looks like. We keep most of these thing in the village cos of the wide space and we barely use them that’s why they’re still in good condition.”
