The current cost of kerosene has soared to between N1,350 and N1,600 per litre, prompting a shift in cooking methods among the populace.<\/p>\n<p>A News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) correspondent conducted a market survey in Enugu and found that charcoal has become a preferred alternative due to its lower cost. Grace Umeh, a charcoal seller at Garki Market, noted that despite the price of a sack of charcoal increasing from N5,000 to N8,000, customer demand has surged.<\/p>\n<p>Umeh explained that an average family of five typically uses up to 20 litres of kerosene per month, spending over N20,000. In contrast, a single bag of charcoal can last for two months, providing a more economical option for the same family.<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, Oby Okafor, a seller at Mayor Market, observed that families purchase charcoal in larger quantities due to the high cost of kerosene and other energy sources. Okafor remarked, &#8220;We have continued to experience good and profitable business for some time now in this charcoal business.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Christiana Ozor, a charcoal dealer at Achara Layout, reported that increased patronage has allowed her to sell more than two bags of charcoal daily.<\/p>\n<p>Buyers like Gilbert Nnamdi, a father of four, have found significant savings using charcoal. Nnamdi shared that with just N200 worth of charcoal, his wife can cook a pot of soup and rice for the family. He praised the efficiency of the new charcoal stove, which ignites quickly and produces minimal smoke.<\/p>\n<p>Another resident, who preferred to remain anonymous, switched to charcoal when kerosene prices hit N900 per liter. She expressed a preference for charcoal over cooking gas due to safety concerns.<\/p>\n<p>Food vendors also turn to charcoal as kerosene, making cooking gas prices unaffordable. Restaurant owner Ijeoma Dim highlighted that the increased costs of other cooking fuels have made charcoal a more attractive option. Mr. Ofor Anyawu added that charcoal sellers now benefit from the price hikes in other energy sources.<\/p>\n<p>Anyawu called on the government to ensure that all cooking energy sources are affordable and accessible to the masses, particularly given the country&#8217;s current economic challenges.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Enugu
