Do you realise that when there is a down turn in the economy the first place brand adjust to survive is Advert Budgets ?

I will give you an instance one Telco was our biggest and most reliable client but Buharis shortsightedness made him go all out to extort them to the extent they dropped of Nigerian ambassadors and sponsorships just to make ends meet but I dont expect you to understand because its above your brain grade for now ... You are doing all for me to mention my firms name here but I wont .. I would have loved to mention it and show you the scope of work we have carried so you can be ashamed of how much you have wasted you life so far being a sycophant but I will restrain my self out of wisdom... Take it from me this is Buharis last tenure . Abeg make I find one sunday buffet go before you spoil my day

Bros foreigners CANNOT be allowed to just EXPLOIT the economy without paying the necessary dues to the government.
Majority of these companies are involved in serious financial crimes against this country.
Government need to collect these dues from them.
If you go to their country you will be forced to pay or ship out.

FarahAideed:
My company worked for most of the Major brands in Nigeria and I can tell you for free since the coming of Buhari most brands have heavily cut down on Ad spends just to survive and it has affected the whole industry and Nairaland is not immune .. My ad business is still running as we speak but we make just a tiny tiny fraction of what we used to make before due to Buhari incompetence ..Please be advised that I voted for this same Buhari

Look bro I feel your pain but the way business is set up in Nigeria cannot stand the test of time.
Have you ever wonder why thriving private business are now collapsing because of Buhari's anticorruption stand?.
I once worked for a company that was engrossed in poverty alleviation scam.
They collect contract from state government to help empower people, but no one get empowered anyway.
The MD of that company was like a rat in the corridor of power.
Businesses that are not depending on government patronage CANNOT collapse because of stringent government policies.

FarahAideed:
You have a bias sectarianist, bigot and ethnic Jingoist with incoherent impaired speech as the president yet you think Saraki is the greatest problem ...My friend the major problem Nigeria has had since 1984 is Buhari, pray God to give you wisdom to open your eyes and mind

Why not since 1950?

JideAmuGiaka:
The joke is on you.
OBJ IBB GEJ PMB ATIKU are all criminals.

All he ask for is for you to answer Amen, stop dodging the prayer.

You better all pray that USA AND RUSSIA Don't fight each other soon. Who told you China is Neutral? Then what is BRICS designed to achieve? Russia and many parts of ancient Soviet bloc, alongside China are all on the same team

Why are you educating that guy?, they don't even know that a country like Ukraine could be deadlier than Russia.
There is a need for a balance of power in the world or else the world will become Americans strip clubs.

Odingo1:
Russia cant fight USA, they dont have that capacity.

USA have Japan, EU and Israel as it allies, China is neutral, Russia is currently under EU and US sanctions which is affecting Russia economy.

WOW, clap for yourself.
Even Americans won't want to give it a try..

Theonlycoolmonk:
Don't those retards, they forgot how bloody Mohammed crusades were, the door that happened right at our door step was how Danfodio conquered Northern Nigeria while spreading the religion of piss to them. Till date Muslims never let go off those oppressive and destructive behaviors that their religion is built upon.

You better go and Google search the CRUSADERS.

Theonlycoolmonk:
Assad is a tyrant because the west doesn't want him and the media have brain-washed people that everyone is now calling Assad a tyrant.

I am sure the people of Libya will may not believe the that Assad is what the west say he is given what they are going through now.

Talking about tyrant, when is the president of Cameroon going to be branded a tyrant? Of course he won't since the west are still gouging themselves off Biya.

Since the west are so generous in removing tyrant why aren't they knocking at North Koreans door at least we all can agree that NK deserves better?

Yes, Assad may not be the idea president but he is far from what the west is trying to paint him as.

You are a VERY SMART BLACK MAN.
They idolized a docile black man like Mandela and Demonized a pan Africanist like Mugabe.
Look at South Africa today, are they truly free?, the HARD FACT is that, intelligent and highly focused leaders will not find it easy with the WESTERN world.
We all knows all manners of propaganda that went on before Libya is brought to the sorry state it was now.
The funny thing is when the supposed DICTATOR GHADAFI was in power, Nigerians are not being sold as slaves in Libya.
I guess the mayhem and reproach that's going on in Libya at the moment, is the American dream for the world.

ollah2:
An average person is dumb, an average Nigerian is dumber, an average religious Nigerian is the dumbest. You read through the comments here and wonder why hate is imbibed in the minds of the Christians.

Some of them know the damn truth about Syria issues but they wouldn't admit it. They so much hate Muslims and Islam for no just cause.

Islam is the cause yet the attached says otherwise. Islam is the cause yet the US are on Syria's soil ILLEGALLY. Islam is the cause yet the US arms Al Nusra front called "moderate rebels when we know they are terrorist in disguise.

The simple reason for all this is because, they want Assad to step down or be their puppet.

Nna na this American government hypocrisy dey taya me.
They support and protect monarchs in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar but they are arming some rebels against a legitimate government in Syria.
This was how they destroyed Iraq and Libya.
If not for the fear that Iran might probably be sitting on Nuclear bombs, they would have look for an excuse to invade Iran.
Sometimes when we say humans are not different from animals, some fools will put on suits and start speaking nonsense.
This was how Americans and the Soviets turned the North and South Koreans to enemies, they also turned Afghanistan to battle ground.
The ONLY thing that PAINED me is that Syria is not a jungle, where America can be given the Vietnamese hospitality, so that by the time they eventually leave Syria, they will be leaving either as mad men or dead men.
Yes the Vietnamese dealt with America so those who think America is unbeatable better start having a rethink.
The Vietnamese made America to fight the war they shouldn't have start in the first place, for good 17 years, they lost and left in shame.
Some of their prisoners of wars are still being released up till now.
As for those who call themselves Christians supporting such barbarism, the day of the Lord is coming, you will explain to Jesus why you bear such EVIL FRUITS.

KingGBsky:
Why are you people all seeing it thesame way the west made us believe Gadafi was evil when they invaded Libya.
Assad is fighting a war against the militant armies who are armed by the Americans and European union. None of you are talking about the drones America and united nations keep launching almost on a daily basis with the pretense they are fighting terrorists.
America and European union are to blame you don't teach people how to run their country. Its a sovereign state for crying out loud

Nigerians are too myopic to understand you.
Some of the people who were happy to see the end of Ghadafi are now mourning and these includes Nigerians.

salvationproject:
Pls Nairalanders, today is my beautiful sister's birthday, What do you guys have for her.

How about Gillette shaving stick?

Geolalisa:
they are after the sea port in lagos, kano does not have. by the time they colonize the sea port in next 50 years, they will tell the south west that the northern land mass contributed to the viability of the seaport and that it was built and maintained by northern money. they may even come up with the idea that they share in the ownership of lagos because the refinery investment of their kano son- dangote.
why is this coming after the south west is being decisive about that atrocities of the herdesmen in south west.

Stop crying

I can take on a million and one ignorant, unintelligent and worthles, it's community service and somebody got to do it.

God bless you bro

Wasted

The COVEN of importers in Nigeria, the committee of WORTHLESS HEADS OF STATES, and the EU COVEN of backwardness have been sitting on this project, since I can remember.

ELKHALIFAISIS:
Why are many Yorubas so afraid of the exit of the Igbos from Nigeria, even though they pretend that it does not worry them? Definitely I have seen some Yorubas who don’t care if Biafra succeeds as well as those who even support it, but the majority of the Yorubas give unnecessary opposition to it that is difficult to understand.

I just don't get it, on Nairaland or in real life?.
If you know how Yorubas view Igbos, you won't be here deceiving yourself.

Odingo1:
The North and South West have succeded in stopping all the sea port and international airport in SS/SE from working,every dam thing in Nigeria is in lagos.Wonder how they want Nigeria to catch up with other African countries in development.
They keep on sabotaging any effort to have functional sea port in SS.
The federal government have make sure that Tin can and Apapa port is always in good shape but calabar port was allowed to decay.

Is this why Aba the China of the East is in that deplorable state?, look why not tell your governors to borrow brain if they don't have.
Between the market " Lagos " and the production hub " Aba " which one should generate more revenues?.
The day you people begins to ask salient questions from your leaders, and stop pointing accusing fingers in the other direction is the day your region will develop.

wink2015:
LET NIGERIA BE RESTRUCTURED AND WE ALL WILL BE BETTER FOR IT.

To much concentration of Authority at the federal centre.

Devolution of Power will make politics better in Nigeria.

Restructure ko, re assemble ni.
This country was four regions before some werey decided they need to split the regions.
Despite having 36 States Nigerians are still crying restructure, the proper word is FISCAL FEDERALISM.

walter08:
why building another seaport in Lagos when you can build seaport in other states. There are neighboring states and niger delta. Govt should know that lagos population and should not bring in something that will make the current population to explode. #SpreedDevelopmentToOtherStates

You mean Amaechi should stop LASG from developing their state?.
How about getting the technocrats in Lagos from THINKING, won't this be a good idea?.

djacob:
This Bastard is busy with Lekki seaport while portharcourt seaport is a big joke

Bastard because he stopped that WEREY Wike from doing his job in PH?

UbanmeUdie:




The truth is,
There was no such thing as vision 2020, neither was there any vision at all.

It was all hallucinations!

Show me a prospering nation and I will show you a country with a vision.

Show me a perishing nation and I will show you a country without vision.

Nigeria is floating,
Nigeria is drowning,
Nigeria is dying.

For where no vision is, the people perish!

Eeya e pele o.
Anyway, we had a vision in Lagos state since 1999.
We are still following our plan to the latest and Lagos keeps rising.
Catch us if you can, Lagos is 16 years ahead of the whole if Nigeria, SW is 8 years ahead of Nigeria.
If the FOCUS in ACN is allowed to WORK in APC good, if not, no wahala.
As LONG as the national reserve keeps rising, an evidence of less fleecing of the country and SW keep moving, I'm OK.

Bobby808:
But Buhari do not take the South South an inch relivant. To Buhari, the south south is foot mat to him. Have you forgotten the defferent hate and tribal dances he sent to that place? If you are talking of Edo state, I will agree with you because he Buhari has some respect for the ex governor and the King of the Edo people, besides, Edo is for apc. To the matter, Tinubu and the Yorubas in general especially the Lagos Yorubas have been flogged and malteeated like the slaves for the north since. Awo was kiiled by the north, Abiola, his wife, were all killed by the north, Obasanjo was almost killed but was jailed by the north. Generall Paul Diya was jailed by the north. So what is the Yorubas to Buhari? Tufinnubu will certainly go down and foold as usual.

See one of them, at last you are telling your story.
You and your people were in the bedroom of the North playing olosho during these periods if am right.
50 something years later you wail marginalisation and underdevelopment, this is despite sacrificing 3million yanmirins to forcefully remove yourselves from abokis bedroom.

mcquin:
Not everyone that voted against Jonathan is Yoruba. I wonder why every argument on Nairaland is reduce do Igbo/Yoruba war.

I concede. We made error in voting Buhari. What more do you want than a person acknowledging his mistake. It was a mistake however made in good fate as Jonathan wasn't the best for Nigeria.

Are you alright?, we the Yorubas did NOT make mistake by voting for Buhari.
We are still going to vote him again in 2019. Yorubas do NOT need any USELESS co operation with anybody in the East to make or take our decisions
See them, ordinary Governorship election in Anambra, they were shouting ACN is amala and ewedu party.
They HATED YORUBAS so much they voted against Chris Ngige as the Governorship candidate, they still went ahead to deny him a senatorial ticket.
Yoruba and Igbos had nothing in COMMON, we see things differently, so enough with this Nairaland co operation.
I don't want anyone to come and accuse me of betrayal after the election, make everyone follow their lane abeg.

headhunter1:
comparing Fayose to Tinubu is an abomination
it's like comparing rolls royce to kia picanto
Fayose and FFK is far greater than Tinubu base on yeroba leadership and protection of yeroba interests.
yes Tinubu is a political heavy weight in SW you can't deny that but come to yeroba interest and leadership
he's a failure and a selfish man.
Fayose deserves the title ona nka nka afo of yeroba land not gani Adams

May your home land and your people be LED by men like FFK and Fayose.
We are OK with Tinubu here, so buzz off.

SaiPapa:
As progressives we should speak out. How many of them know Fulani culture.just misleading ppl. We know ppl are sponsoring this nonsense. With their private militias. I am a core SSer but I love my President. We will deliver PHC come next year. Watch my brother. Do ur part as well. God bless u man.

Haters are coming for you.

docadams:
Tinubu has thrown his cap in the ring in PMBs corner against the expectations of many who rather wished he wrote a reprimanding letter to PMB..
We all know that squaring up with OBJ gives Tinubu orgasm. He hasn't lost any fight against OBJ and I don't see him loosing this.

Tinubu outfoxing OBJ since 1999, OBJ actually made Tinubu who he is today even as a president Obj could not stop BAT.
This movie should be titled the old fox and the rabbit, i hope baba is not about to pay for the rubbish he did to Lagosians for good two years,
imagine trying to FRUSTRATE THE GOVERNOR OF LAGOS BECAUSE HE WANT TO FORCE PDP DOWN OUR THROATS HERE.
Na BAT corner i dey sha, make i go buy pop corn, ;Di ;Dts about to go down.

deji17:
Precisely....Also, a visionary sees beyond the present. Buhari will not be President beyond 2023, even if he wins re election by 2019. By 2023, when power returns to South, Tinubu will expect to get the Buhari - North support on whosoever his candidate is then. It may be Tinubu himself, Osinbajo or somebody else that we don't know, like Osinbajo emerged in 2015.
That is why they call him a strategist. A good strategist is looking at many moves / steps ahead....

They don't know SW is playing for 2023, they think everyone is a maga.

truthstands12:
Its a big shame that one man Tinubu determines who the whole SW zone will vote for in 2019. Are you people not feeling the sufferings in this country? Why should one man tell the whole citizens of a region who to vote for? Nigerians, let's stand up and take our country back. The citizens decides who leads them not one man dictating for everyone. Enough is enough. Get your PVC.

See pain, it is called BLOCK voting.

gidgiddy:
Igbos generally dont care about the Presidency of Nigeria or the vice presidency. These political positions has not helped anyone

DUTCHDON:
This is Makoko in Lagos State. Do you know the money he looted to buy a his Falcon private jet could completely transform this community. Do you know most of the people in this community will likely turn to armed robbery or try and make the trip to Libya to escape abject poverty due corrupt officials like Tinubu.
How do you think America will look like if their 52 state Governors all bought private jets instead of providing adequate infrastructure?

People of Makoko are illegal immigrant from Cotonou, they are mostly fisher men and their families, they are also occupying this area against the government warning.
Gidi government owes them nothing and in fact, this dirty water world may be taken down soon.

rlauncher:
We Yorubas are not stupid. We were grossly underrepresented in the military then with Lagos the then FCT littered with soldiers of northern extractions.

Before going to war with a determined foe, you have to calculate the risks which we did. The odds were not in our favour, so we decided to play the game with maturity, sophistication and sophistry.

All we'd expected then was for the Igbos to defend their territory which they were already doing very well. We would deal with the Northerners later as soon as is practicable The Western Region had already secured agreement with the FG that there would be no attack on Biafra from western side, meaning Yorubas will not participate in the war against the Biafrans. Before you say jack, the Biafrans were charging westward with their war machines which prompted the Yorubas to enter into the war.

Now tell me, who is to blame for the loss of Igbos in the civil war.

They will never agree that they err by invading Ore, ' sure they don't even know the boundary of the so called Biafra.
