Congrats to the them o

I remember a day when I was in an Orthodox church, Baptist, in Oyo town.
The pastor was preaching, lambasting Rev Chris Oyakhilome and his congregation. The pastor said he wonders how a pastor with a divorce wife can still claim to be carrying God’s anointing. That people falling under his anointing are stupid.

Then I sat down to analyze the situation and conditions surrounding the issue critically.

Many of these ministers of God’s homes are intact, not because they are good, love or respect their wives.
The women have been the ones holding and keeping the home which is based more on African culture of perseverance even when persecuted in the home by the husband than the scripture.

Many of these women aren’t comfortable and enjoying the homes, they are just enduring, struggling and pretending to the public that all is well.
If all of these our Ministers’ wives are white or have the white mentality, many of them might have left the homes like Anita Oyakhilome. Including the Oyo Pastor lambasting Oyakhilome

When you start dey watch boxing?
Lets fury fight those AJ fought, especially Ruiz

Noregretz07:
I love Anthony Joshua tho but he needs to stfu
Fury is on another level who has proven himself. Wilder was a no no for Aj till fury knocked him out. This was at a time he came out of depression. The only thing Joshua is bringing to the table is techniques even at that fury is more technical, he has power, excellent foot work, defenses and head movement. Aj had better get to work. The money is the motive Laslas all the talk is to build up the fight. They would both cash out heavily[center][/center]

cooljoe:
AJ has Nigerian heritage, so one is almost obliged to support him. But men I don't seem him beating Fury. Fury is more skillful, is bigger, just all round better. AJ has the more powerful punch, but if Fury could come up with a game plan to neutrailze Wilder's right hand, doing so for AJ will even be easier. AJ will have to be on his very best game, and Fury having an off day.

02Kebreal:
Something inside me is telling me AJ would be beating black and blue.

Emmypure:
them go beat craze come out from this ofe mmanu guy

Kachi4christ:
Maybe u are just blinded by what fury did in his last fights against Wilder. The Wilder guy sef AJ go beat am, fury is just over rated cause he is pure British, AJ will beat him, by TKO inside 10 rounds star this comment

ksam:
I'm à big fan of AJ, but the kind beating wey him go chop ba, Just they fear me

EleventhWeirdo:
Of course good boxers don't retire; they are always retired

Yorubas would say, "tipa ti kuku"

Lol

bercarray:
Sorry, how do you guys, manage to advertise job vacancy, solicit for jobs and all without being ban. Mods don ban me tire, con delete my post join

frankyychiji:
This is sarcasm right?

kikero:
Because we sell power at a cost less than what we produce it, complicated by the fact that as much as 40-50% of people don't pay their bills, and even when there is meter, some bypass the meter....that means that the power sector does not have enough money to make the needed improvements

In fact the power sector is in a one trillion naira hole financially . All the discos and gencos are running at a loss.

Modified

Going through the thread I see that people are ready to blame everyone, Buhari and GEJ inclusive for the power problem.

The reason why we don't have light is because in Nigeria we think we can get a Ferrari for the price of a bicycle.

Yesterday I told someone the actual cost of power in this country as related by ex CBN bigwig Moghalu, and he accused me of lying.

We know power costs a lot of money, but accepting that truth, that in order to have stable power we need to pay as much as 60 naira per kWh is too painful

So we blame the Hausas, Buhari, the IMF, GEJ, the discos, the gencos, the executive list , etc etc.

Meanwhile most of us refuse to pay our bills, chase electricity workers with cutlasses , bypass meters, and cheat on our bills and we expect light 24/7

I think Nigerians tend to live in sugar candy land too much

CodeTemplar:
N70 per KWh isn't as bad as you think. If everyone is conscious of what eats up their power and the cost of alternative power source, they will jump at N70 that's predictable and can be planned with.

lexander:
do you research properly you can survive on a basic salary in advanced countries but can the same be said about Nigeria. If I was to pay you 30 thousand naira a month which majority of employers even state governments refused to pay can you pay your rent if it's monthly pay your bills and take care of yourself ? But that's how it works in other countries . Mind you a Nigerian senator earns almost 4 times what the president of the US is earnings so why can't the minimum wage in Nigeria be 4 times that of the US

agabusta:
Sincerely, I doubt if Nigerians can pay.

A market breakthrough price will be.like 60/70naira per kw unit.

Nigerians were formerly paying between 21 and 30 naira before the recent increase. And even as at then, if they supply consistent 15hrs in a month, an average 3 bedroom family house will be paying like 30k at the end of the month.

If a true price is charged and there is 20hrs of power, an average 3-bedroom family house eill be paying 50/60k per month.

Mistakemaker:
They don't have the resources really? But how come canan land is able to generate their own light? Are they now richer than states? Tell me something

Mistakemaker:
There is nothing like you doubt if Nigerians can pay.. Electricity should be pay as you go using metres and if your recharge finishes then you won't have light.. Are you saying poor people in overseas also can't pay for their light? U sef reason am naw

irepnaija4eva:
Gbam.. This what I have been hammering for a long time.. The states should handle power generation within there jurisdiction.

Such condition will bring about a substantial level of employment, and a huge internal revenue generation for the state, then maybe 10% of the profit should be attributed to the federal government....

Life Ana agaga..

allthingsgood:
Can u even pay for the 24/7 light.

Mistakemaker:
Generate it first.. Let those who can pay do.. Afterall not all Nigerians can pay for 2b naira mansion but some still live in them

MarrisManah:
Please how much is the price for 24/7 light...? We want to know.

kutashi:
Mumu economist! Which school if I may ask? What sense do you make of crap and disjointed information put up by Sahara nonsense called news! Is there any coherency in the information to you? Cut and paste news organisation to feed mumu like you! At any mention of Buhari, most of you just develop unlimited euphoria erection which will send you to early grave!

SamuelAnyawu:
In Nigeria we read with inbuilt Sentiment

wirinet:
You are an economist but poor at English comprehension. If you read the report and comprehend, you will realise that there is no correlation between the free fall of the naira and freezing of Baba Ijebu and other's accounts. The accounts were frozen over " alleged tax fraud and economic sabotage "

The report then continued with;


I don't see how you guys could link the scarcity of dollars at the parallel market to the freezing of 38 accounts. Except you are telling us that they were Dollar accounts with millions of dollars.

Nicklaus619:
I read it bro, talking about tax evasion, believe me that most companies and industries own by some of our politicians don't pay tax, and most of these companies are multi-million companies, if making every companies and industries pays tax is what will stabilize the scarcity of dollars then they have to do the right thing and make sure everyone of those greedy politicians that have confiscated companies and industries own by state to their own personal companies should be checkmated and made to pay tax too. For instant rochas okorocha's company even after leaving the office had made all his staff working on his personal company to be payrolled in the state nominal role while be could not pay pensioners and owing civil servants salaries and arrears.

Those that make sense to you, especially the clueless government masturbation on irrelevant issues where the problems lays way beyond all of that

agabusta:
It is Premium Times that is confusing its readers.

The report says Accounts frozen for Tax fraud, Premium Times on it's own introduced forex into the matter.

Simplyleo:
I'm not an Economist but I think the CBN got this wrong.

How can Baba Ijebu and 37 other companies be responsible for the free fall of the naira?

engineerboat:
Just ranting as usual.

Abouwaza:
Well I know Gbadamosi to be a great and intelligent man
Abiru on the other hand is also intelligent and successful banker
I'm only afraid he will represent a man and not his constituency

seunmsg:
As usual. He will open the live election update thread on September 19 and disappear on September 20 when the final result is announced. Rinse and repeat again for Ondo election.

helinues:
Sometimes, you need to think and relax before engaging in a conversation..
