They don't know about this. They think Trump is just sharing money because America have in excess. The next thing is for them to covert it to naira as if they spend naira is US.

Abi now...let me buttress your point further.
I had to do some research about something I saw as a flash on TV about 74% of Americans living from pay check to pay check with no savings. Go to MarketWatch.com. There I found out this was true. I also found out that accommodation in the US is at least $500-600 per month, it is in thousands of dollars in some expensive states like New York and California.
Now convert $500 to naira per month at N360, that's N180,000 per month for accommodation! That's equal to N2.16 million per year. How many of our people who are running to America for greener pastures pay N2.16 million per year as rent while they are here in Nigeria?? People that can afford that kind of rent in Nigeria will never japa to America to go and hustle.
But when they are here and they hear that people earn $50,000-150,000, they convert the money to Naira and begin to salivate not knowing that some costs will take a lot of that money.

Before I go, here are the links to the website. Check out both of them. Perhaps it will help reset the brains of many Nigerians.

It's that one pisses me off the most. That's were I know most of the people here don't have sense at all.
Why will u convert the money to naira like you're spending the money here in Nigeria.




That was how someone made a post why he's not coming back to Nigerian because the Canadian government gave N600k. I simply told him to convert it to naira and spend it there.

These people are unbelievable.

My sister was screaming when I left the tap running while washing the plates.
You practically manage common water because you are made to pay for the amount of water you use. But here, when sister Clara is washing clothes the compound will be flooded with water.

These guys should stop talking as if everything is all perfect. American residents still die from various ailments too.

Really?? So even medical doctors are stupid?? Oga you are making a profound mockery of yourself.

If a layman makes a suggestion to an expert that is considered ridiculous by the expert, pray tell me, is it the expert or the layman that is stupid??

If Sanwoolu is asked about how to tackle the hellish traffic gridlock caused by tankers in Lagos, and he responds by saying "maybe tanker manufacturers can consider making tankers that can fly out of the traffic so there's more space for cars, tell me, who will be considered stupid between Sanwoolu and the tanker manufacturers in Germany?? That's exactly how the illustration you gave appears like.

You do not know that statements from the most powerful position in the world, should carry serious weight and cannot be a subject of ridicule or "sarcasm" during such difficult times as now.

At this rate, you are now radiating Trump's dim-wittedness in alarming proportions.
let me ask you a question ? so when trump said we need something like a disinfectant to fight this corona virus, you actually really thought he was saying we should all go drink izal and dettol to fight corona virus ? because if this is what you thought he was saying i really wuld have to question your mental health. you need to go to yaba left to go see a doctor for your condiition bro

Ohh na now una know say I suppose face my country ? But when Trump was busy running his mouth over other countries' affairs una no no caution him. Na he has failed woefully to maintain US position as world power. Champions are known in challenging moment and it is clear now that Trump is not smart. He had been riding on US past glory to intimidate others

You have to u understand 90% of American media are dishonestly reporting that he said people should start injecting themselves with disinfectant. How do u counteract that? How will u have time for the million other things facing POTUS. Plus people are threatening lawsuits

But he made a reckless statement which ignorant and desperate people could interpret according to their own understanding and act on it. He did the same thing with chloroquine and people died

The way people were refuting that he didn't make such statement in the other thread. Licking trumps ass like he gives a shiit about you guys.. Saner climes crew always praising US like their embassy officials view this thread and will commend u with visa for praising them. U guys always praise these people, it won't make them like u. It sucks, u guys don't fail to cease any opportunity to bring your country and yourselves down. Even if trump called Nigerians monkey and shit hole you'll still defend him. How low can our esteem get.
I'm surprised at the way some Nigerians particularly Ibos defend Trump like their lives depend on him. But I know all is because of hatred. God almighty will deliver them.

You are not serious. Trump is the President of the United States and continues to make idiotic statement after idiotic statement. He isn't some random celebrity or political activist his office has real power and his his statements have real consequences. The media is simply telling you exactly what Trump said yet you seem to think its an attack.
What about Fox News excusing his continued bumbling?

Why are you even defending this crap? ThierryJay

My man the fault lies with the MEDIA. They have a running war with Trump. Below is the verbatim transcript if what he said.

it’s the reduction in internet and network usage, Americans can’t die in hundreds of thousands without any media covering it.

No doubt, it's a nice place to stay but it also comes with a cost.

Truth is that it is sarcasm. Only intelligent people know when a sarcastic statement is made while the rest of the populace goes gaga
sacarstic statement from a president of the world while more than 50 thousand of his people are dead and more are on the line. That's show's he doesn't care about his people and the whole world. Do you know how many people are looking up to the US? This is the worst president of the United States. He is not supposed to be a president at all talkless of the whole United States.

They are reporting on the exact words he said. Why would you even defend a president advocating for disinfectant as a form of treatment. If Buhari said such would you defend it? It isn't the media's fault that Trump reasons like a 5 year old.

When he was promoting chloroquine people started overdosing on the drug. People are stupid and can believe anything said by someone in a position of power and run with it.

If Trump doesn't want to be criticised he shouldn't say stupid things and leave that to the experts.

Going by your analysis, China and India should have recorded 10 million infections and 500,000 deaths by now. Trump is opening up America. Let's wait and see the outcome in the next one month.

He is not intelligent he is just leveraging on the solid and wealthy system he inherited. What is the difference between Buhari that keeps quiet and a Trump that makes noise with no substance?
