You fools yahoo boys are not your problem you didn't

maasoap:


Lol. You still don't get the point. It is not about earning mega buck, it is about get value for your money. It is not about buying expensive gadgets and all, it is about paying far above the real value of items and that's these yahoo boys are known for and what the writer was talking about.
Yahoo boys would pay 15k for a 7k worth wrist watch. They would gladly pay 20m naira for a piece of land not worth 10m naira. Don't tell me that you haven't seen or heard this kind habit about them.
Freelancers work for their money, it's hard earned. Yahoo boys steal.

DuBLINGreenb:


Shut up it is because no jobs, no start up funds, no capital, no business loans, no youth oriented programs, no government policy to get graduates owning a house in 5 years as you have else where, where you can use government loan to go to school, buy house buy car, still go to private lenders using only credit score collect money for other things, still collect phone from Apple and pay small small from either your salary and so on

Incase you fall on had times you have several safety nets
Like if you read Oliver twist all the orphans, homeless people etc at a certain time would go to government facilities to collect free food, them churches have such houses too

If you read John Grisham's the street lawyer, the state had homeless shelters for homeless people, whenever their was heavy snow or something each shelter starts accepting people till it's full to capacity.

Till today emergency blankets, coffee and a small stipend is given to needy across the world, for countries where it snows during heavy snow police and other government workers and agencies go from place to place looking for homeless people to shelter so they don't freeze and die.

We in Nigeria OUR DARLING NATION I've seen dead bodies on the street, mad people in the rain, excrement by the side of the roads Wetin we never see?

This is why I will not take any vaccine, government that cannot feed me, cure malaria, prevent dysentry by providing common pipe borne water wants to give me free vaccine of how much? If they can hoard food, palliatives people donated to us and gave them to them to share, it shows they can do anything those people want us dead.
They should use covid 19 money to reduce malaria in Nigeria, more people die of malaria than Covid 19.

I think you are still missing the point. Yes the government is thrash and bereft of ideas. but again we are looking at micro economics here. In your small locality the impact of the reckless spending of yahoo boys is paramount and significant. some people say yes they keep the money flowing around yeah its cool but on the flip side they contribute to price hikes too especially in real estate

DuBLINGreenb:
You fools yahoo boys are not your problem you didn't elect yahoo boys into office they owe you nothing

Yahoo boys cannot and did not cause any inflation, government did with their excessive borrowing, excessive spending and looting and over pricing everything to get their cut from every contract like the RCCG road saga road redeemed church repaired for millions is what govmt spends 2 billion per kilometre on, and Ganduje stuffing babariga and Tinubu ordering bullion vans to his homes like pizza delivery and people sharing money during elections these are what causes inflation. Not 500u.s dollars one small boy somewhere picked or even 2k u.s dollars for one small scammer cannot cause inflation in the full Nigeria with over 200million people.

Everyday yahoo boys, everyday yahoo boys, I believe it's those old fools ruling sponsoring all these kind of headlines and news as distractions, one thing you don't even consider is imagine no yahoo at all calculate how much poverty would be in Nigeria, the south Will be much worse than the north in poverty. Because money doesn't get to us here the people I don't mean the govmt.

Because of tribalism atleast northerners get federal and state jobs, I was in the north for 3 years couldn't get one job because of my name and state of origin, I will go they'll tell me openly "oga this your name, them no go fit even do mistake accept you" and for 3 years from Abuja, Kano, Jigawa, and so on I didn't get one job my friend from Benue changed his name to Musa and he can speak Hausa, the man who gave him the job told him openly he wanted to give the slot to an hausa person and that's the reason he is giving it to him to make sure it's his fellow Hausa man, he told him this in Hausa (foolish man die for Mumu man backyard) he is working for customs today. I refused to change mine so I had to return to the south south before Joblessness kill me. Most Benue, kogi, Kaduna, Nassarawa even if they are not Hausa they'll claim to be Hausa and most of them even bear Hausa names or these generic Aliyu, Musa, Shehu and co. Just to survive there, they also speak Hausa, you need these to survive in Our DARLING ONE NIGERIA
But the only option open to you who is from the south, especially South south of you don't want to change your name and learn Hausa Man Know man find one uncle or aunty who is a big man or woman if you no get just forget it na Militancy get you last last come join us for gun boat

Incase you are wondering I graduated with a good result, They didn't open my envelop once, all they looked at was the name, they didn't even read the C.V (who get that time), the ones that manage to open the envelope just look at the c.v scheming through looking for State of Origin, I studied something very appealing and generally application especially to politics and government work. I just wanted Government work atleast for experience and start up, that's what I was interested in, I applied to Nimasa, customs, Corporate affairs commission, immigration, judiciary etc e no get where I no apply

So please and please Leave yahoo boys face your Evil leaders who will not build hospitals but go and use other countries hospitals their governments built for them.

They will not give you government grants or loans but will go and patronise and invest in other people's foreign countries companies and industries built with their own government grants and loans

A content a happy life is what one should be attracted to. Those guys in Cameroon are 10 times more fulfilled than an average hustler in Lagos. That is why we kill ourselves chasing money so badly that we engage in nonsense just to get it.

Baselm:
Anyone who lives in Warri will know this is so true. As a matter of fact, I have given up buying anything that can wait in this town. Everything you are buying in this town is at a Yahoo boy price, I was in a keke some weeks ago and a fellow passenger who was a mechanic was narrating how a yahoo boy gave him 200k just because his car stopped working. The man said it was just the battery terminal that got disconnected but he didn't let the boy know.

You can hardly get a non yahoo boy kinda jean wear in this town, rent is shooting up to Lagos standards, it is just a terrible state.

hustla:



You're a mumu

Dollar is almost 500 and pounds is nearing 700 every minute

Dollar is also scarce and its what they use in importing jeans from china. Naira is essentially useless and if you try to buy from aliexpress, decent jeans are like 22K naira from 7K some years back

obynzo:


I get your point but not as recklessly as one who makes easy money from defrauding people. i also engage in freelancing so i know this.

JAWBONE:
In my opinion, they have ruined the housing market in Lagos especially in Lekki and caused massive inflation there.
Yahoo boys are the reason why a Lekki landlord would charge 100k to short let a 3 bedroom house for a DAY. And also 750k for a self-contain a year. They can charge that because they know someone will pay. And most of the time it's g-boys.

missiret:
why are some people pained because of this write-up? I don't understand o

KevMitnick:
Things have become really bad for the average citizen because these boys don't even negotiate prices of goods and services anymore.

Joydan95:

God bless you my brother.... Is it Yahoo boys that made us that gave Ghana light not have light for 24hours when Ghana enjoy light like heaven?? Someone in government handles the contract of importing generator into Nigerian and that is his main stream business cos he had an agreement with the government that they get certain percentage from it.

zoeA:
Bros all this big grammar na for who?

joinpreneur:
Most of the comments above are senseless, bias and totally null and void. The op brought a salient issue on what contributed to the increase in price of some essentials. Therefore, making life difficult for the less privileged.

No matter how it's christened, whatever is bad can't be called good. And God will punish whoever deserves to be punished over this issue.

He'll punish anyone who oppresses the poor.

The government oppresses the poor. They'll face the consequences.

If you're here too and you're into any fraudulent activity, Trust me, you can't escape it. You're setting strange fire for yourself and your posterity. By the time the fire is done...hmmm

And those of you waiting on God. Shebi you know how to fraud, but you chose not to. You keep your integrity! Haba! There's a great reward coming. Don't compare yourself with anyone.

maasoap:


Lol. All these arguments are nothing but deflections. If Nigeria supply gas to Ghana and we don't have stable electricity, how does that prove that yahoo boys are not disrupting the local economy and causing micro inflation with the way they are pumping free money into the local economy and paying far above the worth.
We have many problems, right. But that doesn't mean free inflow of mega dollars, proceeds of scam is not one of them.
