Ukraine should brace themselves up for x10 retaliation.

Russia NEVER forgives


Russia NEVER forgets.

When Russia do their own now, the west will start wailing and barking like rabid dogs.

This is the umpteenth time ukraine has sank a russian naval ship, nothing worse than russia has done before will happen.

The only thing saving russia from big disgrace is politics in the US has slowed arm supplies to ukraine

Kingkom:
Merry Christmas all.
I am new to the UK, September 2023. I am looking for a good credit card that can allow me to withdraw the cash and not just buying things with it. Please which one is good and advisable to apply for?

American express allows you withdraw cash but you get charged a hefty fee...I think 3% or thereabout.

You may also be able to get around it by buying stuff and sell it thereafter e.g crypto, shares

Don't let anything spoil your joy, kudos to them

Whizzdom:
Thanks.... I appreciate.

Pressure in your head probably caused your eardrum to burst. It typically heals over time, but best check with a doctor

Kingzrocky:
I will be 33 next year.
I must quit this miserable Security work.
I can't waste away like this.
Never.

2 things can possibly happen:

1. The man bleeps you and dislikes you, making him renege his offer or water it down

2. The man bleeps you and like it. He continues to ask you for more sexual favours as an implied condition of keeping the job


Think carefully !!

Peter532:
I don't know if I should be angry or just smile and take it as it is. This is someone that I fed, I clothed despite us being closed friends since we were kids. He knows everything about me that my parents don't even know till dates..We could go to a gathering together and I will be the one ordering and paying for everything we bought even recently because I always acted like the big bro and he accepted I guess .. Just last week I saw it on his status about is house opening invite. I later got a dm from him that same evening telling me about it that I should come through.

It came as a surprise I admit, even though I know he was doing quite well for himself. I know some will call it entitlement mentality but since I considered we were close like a brother we even ate from same plate last 2weeks, I thought I should have known atleast.

Note: I noticed so many people will come in here to call me names, even some accusing me to be someone with bad motives and sort I smile. Not everyone has a evil mindset like you or some persons you know, It's just that when you expect so much from people you hold very close to your heart you might get disappointed and it hurts badly.

Especially when you know you can't do that same thing to that person. I only brought it out here because I wanted to know maybe I'm overreacting because I feel a deep level of betrayal but hey I am happy for him and I will attend the house opening tomorrow.

WIth "friends" like this, you need no enemy.

Avoid the guy bro, I had someone like this too. Taking information and strategies from me, but keeping his "secret". Cut the guy off and stop giving him any information. Today, he is no better off.

When I got to where Mr Inugonum said that people vandalize transmission equipment they bought for billions, melt and used it to construct gates, I realised that ordinary Nigerians are the biggest threat to this country, not even the politicians!

If you dont invest in people and provide then with a basic standard of living, no investment in infrastructure would matter.

How do you expect to construct multibillion dollars infrastructure through communities where many earn less than 1usd a day and expect them to value it?

Oga go school, you refuse. Going to school is relevant beyond getting a job at the office.

"On November 17, 2023, the vice president’s office paid the sum to Royal Pacific Group, and the payment description states, “Payment in favour of Fraser Suites, Abuja, Nigeria, for the settlement of hotel accommodation bills for the service rendered to guests of Mrs Folashade Tinubu-Ojo”.

FIJ found records of this transaction on the BudgIT Govspend platform as scraped from the publicly available Open Treasury Portal. "

I remember telling someone in Nigeria to move about 2 years back.

Baba said he wants to hit it big in Nigeria before he relocates. 2 years down the line, bros cannot fund the budget for relocation to any decent country.

Many Nigerians suffer from Stockholm syndrome, that is why buhari is leaving, they decided to chose tinubu to continue from where he stopped. No be juju be that?

GOTVee:
Even though I'm a born again Christian, I commend the Federal government and our dear president Tinubu for his doggedness and resilience in turning our economy around for the benefit of the masses. Peter Obi that never implement any reasonable policy to better the Lives of any anambra citizen yet he wants to be president. Till today no state in the South East can boast of a common BRT bus service. All they know is to blame other regions for marginalizing them. Unserious Region that wants to stand alone as a country. Nonsense. May God punish Isreal for terrorizing Gaza. Amen

They way you carry "born-again" christian on your head, quoting it everytime something is said about tinubu. Hope all is well?

CoronaVirusPro:
His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) has spoken well!

Even while he is giving his best, its appealing to know that, he believes his doings requires prayers.

Only appeals to your likes bro, you must be suffering from the mental effects of long covid, unfortunately healthcare in the country is too shitty to treat or diagnose it

If this happened in Africa, they would have been writing to the embassy screaming African leaders are killing freedom of speech.

But here is the UK prime minister sacking someone just because he called for peace.

If na one African president dey kill people of other country, USA go condemn to The Hague but since it is Israel doing the killing, they look the other way and say they are fighting terrorists.

This world is the more you look, the less you see.

If as an appointee, you do not agree with your bosses point of view, you should resign to allow him work with someone who shares his vision.

This has nothing to do with freedom of speech

There's no basis for tithe payment/first fruit in the new testament. It is borne out of the concern that if people are left to give from a freewill. They may give below 10%.

Moreso tithing came with explicit blessings and curses which makes it fanciful to many pastors to drive compliance.

I do not think the absence of tithing is why churches in the UK are declining, rather less enthusiasm for religion.

In Nigeria, to travel using the roads which most do, you have to pray for "safe trip", unemployment is also very high, so you have to pray for a job.

Hospital, you pray to come out of the casualty ward alive. These many things we prayed and kept faith for in Nigeria, builds a very strong sense of spirituality those born here do not have.

In the absence of new migrants and after a few generation, all things being equal, the african-dominated chuches will follow same trajectory as their oyinbo counterparts.

t2luv1:


Partner I was this close to agreeing with you until you started mentioning China. Let us get this straight Capitalism in its purest form is only carried out in one country that I know of and that country is Nigeria. Even good Ole USA still has safety nets when one is done on his or her luck. In Nigeria partner you are all on your own. Capitalism as bad as it may be sometimes has raised more people out of poverty than any other social economics you could come up with

You spoke well bro.

That guy just yarn many rubbish.

All functioning countries have subsidies of one sort or the other be it in Asia or the West. In fact Asia likely has more at the moment, which is why it is able to effectively produce at low cost and dump globally even in low cost Africa.

The biggest damage here is government's reputation which is key to attracting local and foreign investors.

You told people no more subsidy, they imported volumes without cbn support. Now nnpc continues to sell at an artificially cheaper rate, leaving them to either sell at a loss or keep paying for storage

Government policy should be consistent and transparent

1stdami:
Hi guys,

Can anyone recommend a hotel / guest house that is affordable and close to Lagos airport please. I need to travel down there for an early morning flight.

Just go to the airport very late at night and stay at the passenger waiting area. Get a good place to rest.

Dennisochampa:
Hoebedients will not like this news....
They never like anything tinubu does no matter how good it is.
One thing I Sha know is that hoebi will never rule this country.
Let's join hands to make Nigeria great again.
It's been a difficult first few months of tinubu tenure I know but even the road to heaven is narrow and not easy at all.
With joint efforts and support for the sitting president, 9ja will be on its way to greatness again.

Agbado has finished this one's head.

Menclothing:


That’s why it’s private sector the employer and Hr should increase their work benefits

Government can’t determine how much I pay my staff

But have increased their salaries

How do you want companies suffering from high diesel cost, high taxes, high fx rate and inflation to increase staff salary substantially. No help or concessions granted to these companies to help them deal with these issues.

Inspite of high diesel cost, the government still introduced VAT o it to add to their pain.

ufotunang:
. But all the dollars and foreign currencies that have been sent to nigeria since all this while....why is forex still scare in nigeria.....a dollar is 1000 naira to a dollar, pounds ...is 1300 naira to a pound

Not all foreign remittance are brought into Nigeria. Many online remittance platform registered abroad simply get the foreign currency and credit the receiver with naira.

The difference between the official rate and black market rate means most people prefer to be paid at black market rate. Also, former CBN policies that prevented people from withdrawing usd across the bank counter discourage people from receiving funds into their dorm accounts.

Possible a significant portion of foreign transfer is now done directly crediting naira to the bank account and not necessarily funding a dorm account.

OGHENAOGIE:
politics is a game of competition and winning in America Trump wasn't the most intelligent when he rule America even Obama am sure isn't to despite his oratory powers...

Yes, ploticians are not often the best-in-class across the world.

Nigeria's case though is worse. Many struggle to even meet the minimum educational eligibility criteria run for office, leading many of them to forgery

Kingosytex:
It seems Shettima has a low IQ, does he expect all his ex-classmates to be VP?
The first class graduate is languishing in a local bank while he himself is a billionaire courtesy of the corrupt system of politics we have. He should keep shut because all he has, he got from politics.
He just buttressed the point. A nation where the sole measure of success is based on the amount of wealth one has is heading certainly heading for doom as everyone will do anything possible to amass the wealth.
Nigeria is a case study, many are now into rituals and all forms of evil just to amass this wealth in order not to be seen as a failure.

It's why Nigeria with so much talent has little to show for itself. The brilliant talents in the country are often relagated to the back, the not so smart ones whose educational qualification may not even be doubted are the ones that take power

Good day guys.
I need a honest analyses (positive/negative) and advice pls.

I'm a salary earner in Lagos with a monthly income [b][/b]less than eighty thousand naira.

I had ...

My humble advice, don't resign your job to do uber. Better you do both instead.

The good thing about a career is you can grow it rapidly if you are deliberate. I started my career in a consulting firm where people started started with 6 digits monthly as trainees and within 6-8 years most moved to 7 digits a month by honing their skills and seeking greater renumeration in the industry. Agressively pursue self development and seek growth opportunities.

Ride hailing may pay more now but may not give you such growth opportunities. Also, very little transferable skill should you decide to quit it in future.

Teeboy04:
Thank you for your feedback , I applied for a grant earlier this year and the grant was approved may this year .

It does not sound quite believable to me that Harvard is paying out research grant to non student/non faculty members for research. Somethings don't seem to add up in this your story

Throwback:


It is not impossible whenever the price of crude oil drops.

There is no fixed price, but market determined price.

It's unlikely the price of crude will dropped sharply below $70 a barrel. Even at the current price, the Saudis took a million barrel cut without opec. The breakeven point for american shale oil is also close to $60. So it's in America's interest to keep it above 60.

Nigeria's best hope is to bring down the exchange rate component or hope for a global recession that will drive down oil demand

ednut1:
have you bought international flight tickets before Who dey talk of local flights here ImNigeria to Canada currently is very high because its summer and people are travelling alot at this time. When its winter the fares become cheap because there is less demand for it. When my siblings went to uk in January it was very expensive because many people were also heading to the Uk to resume school. Dont come here to say what you know nothing about

Your assumption will only hold in a case of monopoly or monopolistic competition. The difference is too high to be seasonal variation.

I suspect the flights are one-way almost empty towards Nigeria and so charge higher for the return trip

odenkirk:
is norway a good country to live in?

Has one of the most equal and high standard living in the world.

To give you an idea, it has a sovereign wealth fund of $1.4trillion with a population of just 5million people ($280,000 savings per head)

The gulf states essentially learned from norway about how to invest oil & gas to develop a country.
