BurnaBoy said 'inshallah'

He didn't read the room.

They have seen how Nigerian banks are thriving through unrestricted *raping of its customers.

You aren't stingy, you just don't have enough.

Igbo presidency, Yoruba Presidency, Fulani Presidency......the only people benefiting are the politicians irrespective of their tribe. What has remained constant is the suffering of the masses irrespective of their tribe.

Don't stop her bro as long as she isn't using it to set a standard to what you should do on her birthday. Don't kill that part of her as her joy could come from seeing you happy. Collect the money bouquet gather the money and save the money which would likely go back to her one way or the other.

If your story na fake na Ijebu thunder go fry your nyash.

You seem to be a mathematician, but you failed this calculation.
With his level of involvement, you think you know the rot in the system more than he does?
If the masses fail their part, no matter tough he is, he won't succeed.
Do the people even have a faint idea of what they stand to gain with people with his CV?

He knows the rot better than I do and he's trying to keep clean hands which is exactly my point.

You can never fight someone in the mud without being stained, you either not fight at all or prepare to get stained during the fight. The current crop of politicians in power will devour you once you show signs of weakness. He's only hoping for the best, it's not like he's putting in the work.

CSTRR:
It's the masses that should force him in through their votes.

Even if obi were to spend, how much can he spend to match the people with direct access to the Nigerian Treasury?
Can he be as a rugged as the people that control the army or the police?

It's the poor masses that should bring about a govt that would favour them.

If they can't do that, then they deserve their current leadership.

You can't vote for APC because of N5,000 or allow someone like wike to steal your vote, and then blame obi because tinubu won.

I disagree with you. As capable as soldiers may be on the battlefield, there is a reason armies still need generals: strategy and decision-making can be just as important as the actual fight.

If Obi is politically strategic, he can indirectly mobilize public sentiment by consistently drawing attention to the failures and hardships people associate with the current government. The rising cost of fuel, new and increased taxes, expensive food, and insecurity are everyday issues that many Nigerians can relate to. These are powerful political pressure points that any opposition can use to connect with public frustration and build momentum.

Tinubu, as an opposition politician, was also known for capitalizing on weaknesses and public dissatisfaction with the government of the day. The point is that opposition politics is not only about waiting for elections; it is also about identifying issues people are already unhappy about, amplifying them, and turning that dissatisfaction into political pressure.

Nteogwuija:
Lol, I beginning to believe that Obi is not a serious politician. That man is not ready. He's busy attending football matches and concurring to whatever Tinubu does.

Na Atiku be the real opposition.

Obi will still come third.

As much as I want Obi he doesn't seem to understand that Nigeria politics has no business with fairness for weak people, same reason Jonathan was outsmarted and sent back to Otuoke. Obi will likely be 3rd again either through votes or assignment by INEC because he has choosen weakness over being tough.

Opposition parties are useless. They don't know how to use these points to campaign against the ruling party. Tinubu will capitalize on that, he seems smarter.

Opmic:
Those supporting this government, please make sense out of this statement for us

You are asking those benefitting from the rot to make it make sense.

Sponsored by the US.

Obviously iPhone is the best phone on earth.

I have never used android phone in life. If you gift me android i might even insult you, I’m sorry

What makes it the best phone?

SeraphinaD1:
I am in Abuja and I need too. Please if anyone has a plug link me up. Scammers are plenty on this Nairaland, so please anyone with a legit source

Scammers won't let you know real sellers. I'm looking out as well.

If PDP were still in power, APC will set up such protest across every region of Nigeria against the ruling party to oust them out. Insecurity is a genuine problem this Govt has refused to solve coupled with the hardship, tax plans, and planned electricity hike which this idiotic govt would activate soon. I wonder why oppositions are not banking on those points, they just don't know how to play politics.

Bayoonanuga:
No shout-out to seun who use his forum to help and change your life I see the reason why foreigner didn't take us serious

I did give him a shout out. I probably need to make it a mention.

eepeepook:
Make person summarize this thing. I never chop night food. Eye go turn me if I read am.

Hehehe it's for those with patience to read.

My very first reward on this forum was a seven year ban.

When I joined Nairaland back in 2013 as a student, I was not looking for any business opportunity. I just wanted to relax, argue about phones and enjoy the comedy here. But those who were around in those days know how ruthless the bots could be. One mistake, and a seven year ban landed squarely on my head.

Seven full years.

I knew I could not wait that long, so I abandoned the account. By the time I eventually returned with a new profile, my reality had completely changed.

I was now out of school, working a low paying job and facing the harsh reality of adulthood. I was thinking very seriously about my future. I needed a way to improve my situation, and slowly, Nairaland shifted from being my relaxation ground into a hunting ground for opportunities.

I kept digging through different sections until I stumbled on a thread about freelancing on Fiverr:
https://www.nairaland.com/2947212/exclusive-how-make-level-2

That topic was 102 pages long. When I say I read it, I mean I sat down and read every single one of those 102 pages.

What kept me reading was the honesty. It was not just a thread of people bragging about success. Many people had tried the methods, failed heavily and returned to share their mistakes, complaints and frustrations.

Instead of scaring me away, those painful stories prepared me. I learnt what to do, but more importantly, I learnt exactly what not to do.

I had absolutely no digital skills I could confidently sell at the time. Writing seemed like something I could attempt, so I chose the writing niche.

Let me be honest. Nothing happened magically.

I had to learn on the job, keep trying and exercise extreme patience. But gradually, the late nights started paying off. Over the years, writing became a very meaningful source of income for me. Eventually, my monthly earnings crossed into six figures in naira. That was a financial reality that once felt completely impossible to me.

But Fiverr was a rollercoaster. I faced sudden account setbacks, bans and dark periods where it felt like I had to rebuild my life from scratch. I kept fighting back with tenacity, but the stress taught me a very clear lesson. Depending entirely on one platform or a single source of income is incredibly risky.

I am not saying everyone who opens a Fiverr account today will suddenly become rich. The platform has changed drastically. But I still believe that anyone who approaches it with patience and a genuine willingness to learn a skill can find a way.

Because Fiverr was becoming unpredictable, I began searching for a second stream of income.

I had always loved gadgets, so another Nairaland thread caught my eye. This one was created by Mikkyangel, and it was about importing phones and laptops:
https://www.nairaland.com/1257506/california-los-angeles-pickup-services..online

Just like before, I read the discussion completely and decided to take a leap of faith.

Along the line, a Nairaland member created a dedicated group for those of us selling gadgets through the forum. The goal was simple. We needed a place to build trust, keep each other accountable and resolve business disputes.

I joined them, and I still cannot fully explain how successful that business became for me.

I would buy laptops from the United States and ship them down to Nigeria. Most of my buyers were based in Lagos, even though I did not live anywhere near Lagos. I had no physical shop and no online store. Everything happened entirely on the internet. In fact, I rarely even saw the laptops I was selling.

Most of my goods were paid for before they even landed in Nigeria. The few I could not pre sell were kept by a trusted friend in Lagos while I posted them here on Nairaland to find buyers.

Over time, total strangers became comfortable sending me as much as 1 million naira without ever seeing their item, visiting a physical shop or meeting me in person.

All they had was my username and the reputation I had carefully built.

That level of trust is never an accident. I made it a strict rule to expose the true condition of every gadget. If a laptop had a tiny scratch, I pointed it out before taking their money.

If a problem arose, my personal policy was to refund the buyer long before they even had a reason to get angry. If I made a mistake, the buyer never paid for it. I preferred to lose my own money rather than destroy the deep trust a stranger had placed in me.

The business thrived for a good period. But then, the instability of the naira began to choke us.

There was a sweet period when 1 million naira could easily buy about three gaming laptops from the United States and still leave room for a solid profit. A while later, that same 1 million naira could barely buy one.

Purchasing power was dropping, and the exchange rate became a nightmare. You could buy an item at a high rate today, and before the laptop even arrived in Nigeria, the market would move wildly against you. After a few painful losses, I realised it was time to close that chapter and let the business go.

I have other things going on offline now, but looking back, this forum directed some of the most important turns in my life.

I am deeply grateful to Seun for building Nairaland. I am grateful to Mikkyangel for the gadget thread. And I am forever grateful to the person who created that Fiverr topic. That user has deleted their account today, but their impact on my life remains permanent.

Someone sat down and created a Fiverr thread, totally unaware that a silent reader would consume 102 pages and rewrite his financial story. Someone created a gadget discussion, never knowing it would teach another young man the true value of trust and shared knowledge.

But here is where the story takes a turn.

Even as I was gradually stepping away from the gadget business, I started noticing something very strange happening inside our seller group.

It was meant to be a place for gadget vendors, but members had quietly started doing something else entirely. At first, it looked like random chatting. But the closer I looked, the more I realised they had stumbled onto a solution for a massive Nigerian problem.

What exactly were they doing? I will reveal the full picture in my next topic. I need to drop my phone right now and go face my landlord over a serious issue.

If you are still looking for what to do, I urge you to dig around topics on this site.

240MILLION NIGERIANS WANT CONSTANT ELECTRICITY BUT DONT WANT TO PAY

DEN WONDER WHY WE'VE WAITED FOR OVER 65YEARS WITH NO RESULT..

NOBODY CAN GIVE NIGERIA POWER WITHOUT REMOVING SUBSIDY

Here's a 30K APC keyboard warrior.

Godfullsam:
How does this translate to more hardship for an average Nigerian who doesn't have regular power supply?

I know your lots would think an average Nigerian without electricity won't be affected but companies running on electricity would pay more for production, the poor also said the same thing about the TAX the govt would likely activate after elections. All these would be included in final prices of products for the average Nigerian to pay.

Chummynoni:
Lol. If not for this guy's pictures , I would have said all these never happened 🤣🤣

You never know that guy. Try read his topics you go shock.

More like Nigerians has forgotten but the govt hasn't.

When Nigeria's new tax reforms were being introduced, they dominated national conversations. Government officials repeatedly appeared in the media explaining why the reforms were necessary and encouraging Nigerians to embrace them. The Chairman of the Presidential Committee on Fiscal Policy and Tax Reforms, , was particularly visible, passionately defending the reforms and outlining their expected benefits.

Then, almost suddenly, the conversation faded.

Today, there is noticeably less public discussion about the new tax regime. The urgency has disappeared, public explanations have become scarce, and many Nigerians are left wondering whether the reforms are still moving forward.

That silence should concern every Nigerian.

History has shown that governments sometimes avoid aggressively implementing unpopular policies during politically sensitive periods. Elections often influence not only what governments do, but also when they choose to do it.

This raises a legitimate question.

Has the government simply gone quiet because it does not want the tax reforms to become a major political issue before elections? If so, could Nigerians be facing far stricter enforcement once the elections are over?

There is no evidence that this is the government's plan. However, the absence of clear communication creates uncertainty, and uncertainty often fuels suspicion.

If the reforms are still on course, businesses need time to prepare. Workers need to understand how the changes may affect their income. Entrepreneurs need to know what new obligations may be coming. Families deserve enough notice to adjust their finances instead of being caught by surprise.

Silence is rarely a good communication strategy when major economic reforms are involved.

Whether one supports or opposes the new tax law is beside the point. Every Nigerian should want transparency. Citizens should not have to speculate about policies that could affect their livelihoods.

If the government has paused implementation, it should say so. If enforcement has merely been delayed, Nigerians deserve to know the timeline. If nothing has changed, then regular public updates should continue.

The purpose of this article is not to create fear but to encourage preparedness.

If the current silence is simply administrative, then there is nothing to worry about.

But if it is political, Nigerians should begin asking questions now rather than after the elections, when any major enforcement measures would be much harder to challenge.

A well informed public is always in a better position than a surprised one.

Mentality of average Nigerian. Paper money made by men for men's use has nothing to do with God.
