in this kinda issue,I just keep mute than side anyone cause both parties are making points.

Closing down shooting of video outside will make our production look inferior somehow. but from another view of it, if FG should ban it, I think that will put more pressure and bliv on the producers to work more on getting the best outta wat we have here in Naija.

kabrud:

Bros, why are you fuming from both sides of the mouth spitting saliva everywhere because you want to get out of the evil forest?

Do you need to tell us these stories when you have been ordered to leave?

Is it not better you use that declaration as an opportunity to bloody get out rather than coming to nairaland and start fuming? Go and pursue your agenda and stop disturbing us here.

Absolute nonsense. If with your "education" you are still being ruled by an illiterate, it is appropriate you make a self appraisal because that kind of education is miseducation. Yes, they are heading ministries and there is nothing you can do about it. The more reason they gave you quit notice.

Read it again.
I have the exclusive latitude structure my words and sentences, as long as they are grammatically correct, in any manner, putting emphasis wherever I want to, to achieve both my visual and subliminal goals.
That, of course, is something that I do not expect the '18 and 12' scorers in a quota educational system to understand.
That is why I advised vedaxcool earlier on to keep very quite when a '65 or 66' scorer speaks.



Well, in this very case, the hosts and parasites are very clear.

Peter Okoye and the rest of Nigeria's music and entertainment industry, for example, are creators, creators of value , wealth , foreign exchange and exporters culture and name recognition(priceless by every standards).
These people understand the nuances of their industry, and they respond accordingly to the demand and supply dynamics of their marketplace.
Now, you have Alhaji Lai Mohammed, a politician, a man no creative ability or imagination, a minister by the grace of Buhari's nepotism, the equivalent of a tapeworm in the underbelly of the Nigerian political and economic life, trying to dictate, by imperial hubris, how an industry show run their business, ignoring how demand and supply dictate the marketplace.
Lai Mohammed is symptomatic of how tapeworms behave: Hubris

Good point.
You know, the British, our former colonial masters, actually have manual on how to destroy and or permanently keep a nation or a people going round in circles. It is quite simple. Create a system that ensures that the most sensitive and critical tasks or positions are given to the laziest or least qualified.
Go back to the history of Nigeria , and this MADE-IN-BRITAIN template for national failure is what you will find.
Again, go back to Nigerian history and see that the only times when qualified people occupied critical positions in governance are the only few times Nigeria has seen positive changes and progress.
So, yes, once gain, illiterates are in sensitive positions in governance, and once again, we are paying very hefty prices for it, and will do so for a very long time.

I used to assume you support me silently buhahha I personally don't care of your silent support which changes nothing. Please can you swear I get paid for your posting and if true God should never grant me any thing in this life I need and if false You will never earn for yout entire life N2000 and all forms of evils will befall you? It is a shame you cannot think rationally and see the point being made! Education is more important than silly music video, No? Preserving human life through treatment abroad due to the absence of good facilities here is more important than music video, No? You see you people cannot reason well that is why you we put in the same bracket education, health and music video is just plain stupid!

GEJ, a supposed PhD holder was the president of this country for over 5 yrs. In addition to an extremely high revenue accrued to the state, the foreign reserve was depleted, yet, nothing to show apart from cheap rice.

plaetton:


My dear friend, I going to be gentle with you by suggesting that you take time and objectively look at issues, without the propaganda components.

Pls examine your post objectively.
High revenues in the federal coffers also meant high revenues for all three-tiers of government. Not so ?
High revenue in federal coffers also meant higher expenditures in education, agriculture, security and defense. Not so ?

Is the purpose of government to do piggy bank for the citizens or provision of social and economic investments and value to the citizens ?

Now, you mentioned depleted foreign reserves ? Where did you get this nonsense from ?
When does $30b in foreign reserves = depleted ?
How much foreign reserves did OBJ inherit in 1999?

Do you remember that GEJ proposed a sovereign wealth fund to save the excess reserves ? o you know who opposed him and sued his government to stop it ? The opposition, led by Tinubu , Mohammed, etc and governors, who wanted to spend whatever was available in the federal coffers.

So, please, my good friend, desist from peddling such lies and useless propaganda.

Apparently, your merit educational system must have taught you that "depleted" is synonymous to "emptied".
Pls, consult any of those books in your merit system for clarification.
Moreover, why was the foreign reserve being depleted despite the robust revenue accrued to the state under his administration as opposed to gradual increase being witnessed under the present administration with lean resources? Besides, where are those areas he expended the "increased expenditure"? Power, roads, health or agriculture? Pls share the "report" with us because nothing is on ground. The only thing we saw was cheap rice.

https://www.vocabulary.com/dictionary/depleted
An adjective describing something that has been USED UP.

https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/deplete

Origin
Early 19th century (earlier ( mid. 17th century) as depletion): from Latin deplet- ‘emptied out’, from the verb deplere, from de- (expressing reversal) + plere ‘fill’ (from plenus ‘full’).


Perhaps it's time for you to shut up and stop showcasing the wonders( ) of the educational quota system.

In those 5 yrs the Nigerian middle class, perhaps most authentic and reliable metric for economic progress, expanded for the first time in almost 4 decades.
Of course for an almajiri whose brain is wired to seeking one meal a day, I am not surprised that you only noticed the lower price of rice, a monumental achievement at that, too.

Enemyofpeace:
Federal government has no single point, they should as a matter of fact keep shut and bury their heads in shame. If they so much care about Nigeria and Nigerians, they should stop sending their children to school overseas, stop going for medical treatment abroad, stop looting our treasury and put things right in Nigeria. They made us to be where we are today.

My pleasure to educate you, if only you can be grateful.

If you had taken a simple lesson in secondary school economics, you would have known that the there is no such thing , no homogeneous group known as ordinary Nigerians when measuring economic progress.
But there is a homogeneous group called the middle class.
The middle class,being the intermediary class between the rich and the poor, are the most watched class and measured class for economic and social mobility.
When the middle class grows or expands, that signals economic progress( 2010-2015).
When the middle class shrinks or is decimated by the unexpected moronic and suicidal economic policies of incompetent buffoons in governance(2015 - present) , then obviously, economic and social stagnation is noted.

Therefore, the average Nigerian that you speak of is either a poor person struggling , with the dream of joining the middle class, or a former middle class person , cast out like a fallen angel back into the dungeon of the poor, thanks to putting the serious and critical job of governance to the products of a quota system.

And still have the temerity to post this to further disgrace yourself.

Well,you know, come to think about it, if a person scores 12 or 18 in jamb , and has no shame about it, and therefore no incentive to do better, I should not ever expect that person's IQ or learning curve go up in adulthood.

Hi

nextprince:


Still warped and senseless analysis from a product of merit educational system.
Middle class this and that without a single correlation to the realities. In that empty Economics you learnt, state's resources vis-a-vis the standard of living of citizens must have been omitted as a topic.
By this akpu logic, countries like Rep of Niger and some other poor neighbouring countries don't have good Economists I guess. Or you are the only Economist in the world, even though relating the state's resources to the well being of a country's citizens has proven to be a herculean task for you. Assuming the so-called middle class were even better then than now, then tell me what you understand by "recession"

That apart, where are these middle classes you are busy making noise about? Who are they? Bla bla bla, no single report to substantiate claim, are you confusing nairaland for beer parlour?

Again, let's even assume these imagined middle class exist, who constitute the bulk of noise makers in this administration? Are they the paupers or the same middle class? By implication, the poor Nigerians were very much satisfied with their poverty then and this is the time to make noise abi?

Again, still on this fictitious middle class, was the govt resources intended for them or for every Nigerian? Is that why the ogogoro master was celebrating the creation of more thieves millionaires during his administration?
Now, the yet to be answered question is, why was the govt expenditure more of recurrent than capital, since the only index of development (as you have been trying to prove) is enrichment of some imagined middle class, even though we all know that is the worst form of public financial expenditure, and coincidentally, by a PhD holder from a merit educational system?
What happened to roads, power, health and a host of other infrastructures necessary for development that should have reasonably justified the "increased expenditure"? Or is it just about enrichment of some "middle class"?
