Business / Re: Naira Makes List Of 15 Worst Currencies Against The US Dollar - Statisense by fineboynl(m): 8:03am
Most governors cannot even work with the even of the allocation is so doubled because the inflation is more than 109%.

Building infrastructure or repair of road expenses have been more than doubled. Cement, iron, roofing and feeding is not easy for anyone not even the government.

The states are more poorer just within a year. Truth is bitter is why alot of people are not talking

Politics / Urum Community Urges Soludo To Set Up Independent Panel Over Nullified Election by IzunnaOkafor(m): 8:03am
By Felix Oti

Against the public confirmation that Governor Chukwuma Charles Soludo did not tell the Anambra State Commisioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affiars, Hon. TonyCollins Nwabunwanne to cancel the December 30th, 2023 Town Union election of Urum Community, in Awka North Local Government Area of the State, stakeholders of the community have called on the Governor, Prof. Soludo to set up an independent election review committee on Urum elections.

The stakeholders, rising from an emergency meeting after Commissioner Nwabunwanne announced 30th of March, 2024 as date for a fresh election in the community, requested the Governor to stop the Commissioner from intimidating the community, as such is capable of igniting unimaginable crisis in the community.

The stakeholders, who spoke through the Chairman of Urum in Diaspora, Chief Ignatius Nnaemeka; the Chairman of Urum Concerned Citizens, Chief Matthew Nwodo; and the Chairman Urum Elders Forum, Chief Ozo Loius Umegbolu, insisted that the best option for Urum Community now is for a Government Review Committee answerable to the Governor, to first understand the position of things, then brief the Governor, before future directives.

According to them, the Committee shall be independent of the Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affiars, Hon. Nwabunwanne, because he has been compromised on the matter.

The Stakeholders believed that though they have all the evidence requested by Commissioner Nwabunwanne, it would be inimical to the peace they wished in their community to start throwing evidence around since they trusted that Governor Soludo shall set up a Committee to investigate the Urum imbroglio.

They insisted that since the Commissioner came out to deny what he had earlier said that Governor Charles Soludo did not have hands in the election crisis that erupted during and after the election, it won't be reasonable to push that line further but to call on Governor Soludo to set up an unbiased Committee to get all parties' report of the election.

The stakeholders further warned Nwabunwanne to stop mobilizing Urum People to speak in favour of his planned elections as if the community is divided, but to do the needful as an uncompromised umpire.

“This our position is because Urum as a community will not like to exchange words with our amiable Governor in public; rather we are calling on Soludo to wield into the case by setting up an independent committee to investigate all that transpired during and after the election and be convinced that we are justified by our demands,” the said.

Continuing, the stakeholders said: “We are shocked that the Governor was not aware of what happened in Urum and the claims by Commissioner Nwabunwanne which led to cancellation of our election 3 months after. The Commissioner claimed that Governor Soludo cancelled the election, only to later recant that the Governor was not aware.

“We are therefore calling on our capacity Governor to set up a Commission of Inquiry where every evidence we have will be submitted because Tonycollins, the Commissioner, was compromised. We don't see the possibility of getting justice from him.

“We are calling on the Governor to set up Committee of Inquiry for Urum because if Urum community is in crisis, Anambra State will also be in crisis, no matter how small the community is, it should not be allowed, not even from government's agent.”

The stakeholders also informed the Governor that his Commissioner has failed in his duty of ensuring and maintaining peace in Urum Community.

They restated their readiness to submit all the documents required because all the documents are in their disposal, noting that because Soludo's government is a responsible Government, the community will not bring some private documents to the public.

Urum Stakeholders wondered why Commissioner Nwabunwanne, after receiving reports from a delegation he sent to monitor the election immediately after the election, did not cancel the election, until 3 months after.

They insisted that a winner was announced before the looser started fomenting crisis.

The Stakeholders also queried the power the Commissioner has to cancel a Community's election after almost 3 months. They challenged Tonycollins to provide the law that empowered him to cancel the election.

“Who gave him the power? The law states that when a town wants to conduct an election, the town will come up with Electoral Committee, notify the government to supervise the election. The law did not ask the government to come and conduct election. The Ministry does not come to conduct election but to supervise.

“You can only write what you saw, and when there are issues you call parties to mediate, you don't go out later to cancel the election without informing both parties your findings and reasons.

“So, that announcement for a fresh election in Urum was a premeditated and compromised stance on the part of Commissioner Tonycollins Nwabunnwanne which is ill-intended. That announcement is capable of destroying the peace in the community.”

The Stakeholders described the Commissioner's several lies in his press statement and mobilizing of some Urum sons to speak in his favour as childish and uncalled for, as all his efforts were targeted at engineering crisis in Urum.

The community denied ever getting directives from the government or Commissioner Tonycollins to discuss the election outcome but a directive for the winner of the election with Stakeholders to go and beg the loser before he can issue certificate of recognition that he had written to the winner.

They wondered why an election with DSS report, Police report, report of the delegation the Commissioner himself sent to monitor the election and other reports were submitted to a government agent and Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs since December 30th, 2023, yet he has not deemed it fit to interrogate all those who participated in the election and initiate measures to punish those who perpetrated violence after the election against the peace accord signed, only to stay in the comfort of his office and cancel the election.

“We have seen that the Commissioner is compromised. The house of the winner of the election was partially destroyed; the AVG Chairman’s house was destroyed and looted, and some people were injured. What did the Commissioner do to those who caused the crisis after announcement? The only thing he came out to do is to say that they will cancel the election.

“To us, we see it as deliberate action to cause crisis in Urum community, and we don't want it, because, all these contestants are brothers. If he feels as an external person he can come and cause crises in Urum, it will not work and he cannot make us to hate each other.

“Governor Soludo can call on DSS and police for their reports on the election. The Governor can also call on those who came from the Ministry, even if they will lie to His Excellency, we have evidence.”

Speaking further, they said: “We conducted our election based on our constitution, and mind you, every community has its constitution. There is no uniformity of constitutions for communities in Anambra State.

“As the Commissioner continues to peddle lies against our community, mind you that there is no place in our constitution where election of those in lower position comes first. We have been conducting elections over the years. What we do and announce to everybody is the positions that were unopposed which would be written and submitted and that was announced by returning officer and there was only two positions that were under contest. The Constitution is what guides us and he will not cancel Urum election just like that after 3 months and fix Match 30th as new date for election, neglecting the position of Urum Town Union on dates of election.”

According to them, “The Commissioner only invited Urum Community on February 29, 2024, but because of the Exco Meeting they had with Mr. Governor that day, it was moved to 1st day of March 2024. In that meeting he told us in the presence of everybody to beg Chinedu, the loser of the election, so that he would release certificate of recognition to the winner.

“While saying all that, Chinedu started agitating, and he advised us to go and beg him, that it was better to beg Chinedu than to have the election canceled.

“For the past two months after the election, Commissioner Nwabunwan never called us, instead we were the ones prevailing on him.

“Again, anyone saying that the election was conducted twice was not speaking the truth. The election was not conducted twice. It was counting that was disrupted and continued, after which results were announced,” they concluded.

Business / Is Recharge Card Printing Business Lucrative ? by DigitVAlueman: 8:02am
Greetings nairalanders, please advise me, I am considering of going into recharge card printing business but my fear is that I don't know how lucrative it is. Just like any other business out there I know the amount of money I invested into it will determine the amount of gain I will make and also how fast I am able to sell it off. But my interest now is: does it have a fixed profit ratio to the amount invested into it ?
If so, and eventually I venture into it,

(1)how much can I be making as profit at the end of every sell in regard to the capital invested into it ?
(2)Can I calculate and know my profit earlier even before making sales.
Already I have something that I am managing of which at the end of each day I might be making up to #5,000, sometimes it could be more or less.
I have wanted to get a side hustle from the online space and this is the one I am considering now though I have tried some other ones in time past but they have not given me result so far. If I am to venture into this very one probably I will be giving up my work so that I can have time for it, to print and to sell

Now does the idea of giving up my work for recharge card printing business worth the while ?
Can I make it ?

These are the things I want the knowledgeable people in the house to educate me on.
Thanks for your Ideals.

Ghostagain:

It would make more sense if you actually showed me an older democracy than America. That is how a logical argumentation is done. It is not about just making a claim and then expecting everything to fall around your claim.

I'm not here to argue with you

I just wanted you to correct yourself.

Use the internet. (You made the claim, not me, I only disputed your claim that had no evidence attached)

There are host of countries older than America when it comes to democracy.

Greece
Switzerland
Iceland
Finland
San Marino
Isle of Man
Faro Island

(you can prove me wrong by posting evidence of why America is the oldest and not any of the ones I listed above).

Do not take my words for it, do your research as a "logical" student you claim to be.

Note : When responding, remember the keywords you used "Oldest democracy in the world"

This thread is so funny, from beginning to end I was just laughing 😂. Even here, the agents are busy repeating motivational quotes, that tells you a lot.

But @directorstan and the few other agents, you no dey tire? You guys say you are not scam and you swap your business name with other legit businesses out there when posting jobs. What are you then? You are committing grave sin because this is a way of scamming people's soul not just their money.

You were earning 200k monthly in 2023 and that paved way for you to have several properties 😂😂😂. Please don't kill me with laugh, I enjoyed this thread so much I had to read from first page to the last. This should be in the comedy section.

You just want to make noise, your talk doesn't have any bases, you don't want to do anything tangible for yourself and you want to succeed. NOISEMAKER,

Is it everything people post online. Besides the north people are conservative. Many of them beat their wives to pulp. But the wives can't talk. How many do you see online. Their religion allows them to treat a slave or servants as they like. The surrounding people won't talk.

But the case is different in the south.
