Even me that I have legal money in Nigeria, if given the opportunity I will attempt to smuggle the money out of Nigeria as dollars. Imagine investing in a country where the naira is so unstable that it turning to useless paper. If you look at this story well you'd discover that this money belongs to this guys but they are just looking for ways to take their investment to Lebanon as Nigeria economy don cast. Even dollar sef may cast soon. They are just printing dollars and giving people up and down as stimulus check. Na Yen me I want now oooo.
Investment › Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by 12inchess: 12:01pm On Aug 21, 2020
ultron12345:
Stupidity of the highest order.

Firstly, this write up is filled with lies. Since when did Madagascar's currency become higher than the naira. 1 Malagasy Ariary = 0.1 Naira. The Sudanese Pound is equivalent to 7 Naira, not 42 Naira. The Malawian Kwacha is not stronger than the Naira, it is not equivalent to 21 Naira. 1 Naira = 2 Malawian Kwacha. These are just few of the numerous lies up there. What do you hope to achieve by sharing these devilish lies?

Secondly,

1 Naira = 3 South Korean Wons

Does that mean Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya and others have a better economy than South Korea?

1 Gambian Dallasi = 2 Japanese Yen
1 Ghanaian Cedi = 18.2 Japanese Yen (Let's assume we don't know about Ghana's currency redomination)

Do these mean that Gambia and Ghana have a stronger economy then Japan?


Exchange rates do not represent the reality on ground. In fact, if we Nigerians were a serious people, we would have used this low exchange rate to turn ourselves into an export-based nation as this will make our exports cheaper and more competitive on the global market. But no, we must sit down doing nothing and complain. It's the Chinese, Lebanese and Indians that will come and take advantage.

China's dream would be to have the chance to devalue their currency to our level without being called a currency manipulator and getting slammed with sanctions from US and EU. Sensible countries like Vietnam keep their exchange rates very low to stimulate exports.

Nigeria's target should be to solve exchange rate instability, and not to be striving for N1=$1. The Naira can be 300, 360, 400, 500 to a dollar but let it be stable, so that investors and business people can plan for the future. Not today 300, tomorrow 450, next tomorrow 390, the other day 610. You collect dollar loan to invest in Nigeria at 1$ to N300, but when it's time to pay back, it's 1$ to 500. Exchange rate stability is what is needed. If we solve this and bring down inflation, it would go a long way in helping businesses.
Well no one wants to lose money. After investing X millions in nigerian treasury bills (which should be a relatively safe investment) only to go through 2 instability cycles with the Naira all reducing my investment. Shouldn't I carry my money and run? Let the indians and lebanese keep investing. They know how to better manipulate the system. And carry their dollars in cash in Ghana most go when they are travelling.

What is the most efficient way to convert 12 milllion to USD. I'm currently in U. S and I'm tired this treasury bills crap. The interest on investment can't even bit naira falling nor inflation. Is bitcoin a good idea? Is there any other better to invest other than naira? Investing in naira at this point is pointless.

Even the chief feminist have husbands that they are "kneeling" down for. Go figure. Oprah, Chimamanda, Beyonce. Is only a dumb woman that will believe all these feminism cock and bull stories. When Jay Z cheated shebi you feminist people were thinking Beyonce will leave him. But did she? Hahahaha. She turned their backs on them all.

Feminism of don't take nonsense from your husband, don't respect him, don't cook, everything share 50-50 is crap

I don't know why Nigeria cannot own nuclear bomb sef. Just that we cannot even provide common 24/7 electricity yet.... grin grin grin grin. If Nigeria develop nuclear, they will probably mismanage it with corruption and Kill us all with it.

WHAT HAPPEN TO NIGERIA'S LOCAL CONTENT LAW ?

With all the numerous universities in Nigeria we still go out of our way to find solace in Indians.

Not even a European or an American?
Local content law? Are you kidding me? Businesses have found a way around this since the 80s. All they need to do is employ one Nigerian figure head who they give shares in the company and that is all. They don't even need to employ Nigerians. The treatment of Nigerian workers by foreigners is an extension of colonialism and it would not change soon except the govt has sense. When I was working at an Italian company in Lagos, do you believe that these italians did not use the same rest rooms with us and also ate in a different canteen. In fact they were on all on a different floor. All in the 21st century. Shameful. I knew I'd never work there for long. And trust me they had a Nigerian figure head shareholder that comes to collect money 1 in a month.

Politics › Re: Nigerian Retailers' Shops In Ghana Locked Up As Police, Army, Flog Them by 12inchess: 11:36am On Aug 14, 2020
SmartPolician:
You are just being emotional and melodramatic

I have followed the debate online

The Ghanaians always insist that they have existing laws that forbid foreign-owned small-scale business in their country.

Their argument is that they are just few in the country. So, if they allow foreigners to come in their numbers, they will dominate the space and drive their people out of business.

Why question is, Why do Nigerians still go there to start small-scale businesses when they know that they have such laws in place?

Perhaps Nigerians are just being our lawless selves, believing that with some tips everything is possible.
Bro, you can't be in Ecowas and have such a law. Ecowas is like EU, there are laws governing member countries in terms of economics, movement and trade.
Politics › Re: Nigerian Retailers' Shops In Ghana Locked Up As Police, Army, Flog Them by 12inchess: 11:33am On Aug 14, 2020
Unless our govt is sick in the head, they need to reciprocate in kind. AFTERALL, we have some Ghanaians and Ghanian business here TOO. And some also may not be meeting requirements. If they don't want competition from Nigerians be it Yoruba or Igbos in their country then there shouldn't be ECOWAS. Fuc. k ECOWAS. Nigeria should just threaten to withdraw then you will see Ghanian president wailing to have us back. They benefit more from it than even us. But we have a weak leader.

Both Jesus and Mohammed. We read of them in a book brought by missionaries and jihadists. And if we want to believe whatever the book says, that is each persons copy of tea and individual spirituality. But to be killing Africans because of something written in a Jewish and Arabic book is just plain stupid.

They can use her platform to discourage other youths from turning to yahoo and benefits boys/girls.They need to sign agreement with her to reduce her sentence to 6 months to a year while she is compulsory using her skits and online presence for discouraging yahoo yahoo for a set period of time i. e community service. She is still to young for a long drawn sentence that will benefit nobody. As for Hushmummy.That one should rot in jail. She is old enough to know better.

After all singles are evicted, then it seems the viewers will decide which couples to evict until the last man stand. 85 million no bi joke. It really is just a game.

Privatization doesn't include giving a monopoly to one company. This is why anti trust laws exist in EU because it breathes competition. How about calling up different stakeholders to make bids for the refineries in an open bid process and not offloading everything to Dangote. Granted, he is a major investor in Nigeria and it is essential that critical infrastructure like refineries are citizen owned but he is not the only one.

Soon they will call the privatization people i. e Dangote et al. and sell them to him at almost no cost like jankara market. Smash and grab tactics. Just like the Italian mafia.
