This the man Olaadegbuu is accusing of being a false prophet. . . . . ..

Alagba Olaadegbu come outside you've been exposed. You callous slanderous soul, better repent or go to hell.

This is totally uncalled for. Please delete that comment. Kumuyi is a revered man of God.

as for Olaadegbu, he's best ignored. This is someone who, if he's not hobnobbing Trump, is busy bumping his zillion useless threads. He should not be taken seriously.

Hi everyone. Can anyone recommend a good investment company/stock broker involved in treasury bills? I'm getting tired of GTB and their shenanigans.

Tinubu is paying subsidy. A blind man knows that.

Landing cost is over N1000/litre, yet we get fuel for between 670-900 at stations. So who is taking care of the differential??

The problem now is there is no explicit budget line for subsidy which makes it murky. Because the obvious question will be where is the money coming from? Who is paying and who is receiving??

I guess this happened Thursday? Cuz I followed that road yesterday and it was quiet and peaceful, though I could see remnants of the riot

Hmm

Nobody is blaming Ibos. It's just few mischievous elements like the op and his cohorts making noise all over.

Above is the famous Onyeka Onwenu investigative reportage of the monumental corruption and wastage of national resources in 1984 during the inglorious Buhari military junta regime era. This was when journalism was journalism not these days of brown envelope journalists like Sam Omatseye, Reuben Abati.

Meanwhile, the same political scenario and trajectory since post independence is still plaguing Nigeria till date. This just confirmed that the nation is under a curse.

Wow. Sensational reporting!!! 👍👍

I was surprised when I went to renew vehicle particulars.

So many things have changed. I was told that I will renew my proof of ownership alongside.

Has anyone experienced this?

Not really new na. Started since last if not mistaken

Mitsurugi:



This is not the issue. If there is security a large family is actually a bonus in agriculture. The issue is insecurity not family planning. When I served in Adamawa there was this man with a large family, his farm was enviable. Every member was a worker from the oldest down to the youngest after school hours. It was a company just like the days of old.

And that's the problem why the North has remained so backward. Like I said in the other thread, Children are no more than cheap labour for you guys.

“I had so much before - maize, guinea-corn, cotton, and many cattle,” said Alhaji Abubakar, who lives in an informal IDP camp area with his 23 children and three wive

Chai.

Cj4charles:
I keep telling those defending this Government to do that with sense, the Northerners have been giving birth to multiple children right from inception.. why then every thing changed since Tinubu came into power

And how has it helped them do far?? Consider virtually all indices; literacy level, standard of living, maternal/child mortality, etc. and you see the North lagging seriously behind.

Don't you think it's time we begin to tell ourselves the truth?

FYI, I'm not by any means holding brief for Tinubu,

2elliot:
China has a billion people, yet they are not blaming their population. The north is not backward because they are too populated, but it is because of leadership issues. That 12 children a singular northerner has is a big blessing if harnessed for farming and manufacturing. North has everything to develop themselves, except poor leadership and religious extremism.

There is a clear difference between one family having 10 children, and then 5 families having 2 children each. Same number but very different demographics.

You claim the "children being harnessed for farming and manufacturing" seriously?? 5-18 yrs old should start working in manufacturing firms??

I'm not holding brief for govt, as they can certainly do better, but families need to become more responsible: they should stop seeing children as sources of cheap labour but rather as assets who need to be trained (schooled) and nurtured till they can become productive members of society. That is how countries become rich.

Salewa97:
Fayose should focus on his own backyard before casting stones.

Northerners are resilient and hardworking, raising their children with values that many in the South could learn from.

Instead of blaming Tinubu, let's work together to uplift all regions. The real issue is leadership, not geography.

There is a limit to which govt can work. People also have to imbibe sensible population control measures.

I don't support him (Fayose) singling out the North (it's a general problem) but we must admit that's it's more prevalent there.

Yes Nigeria is not overpopulated in the true sense of the word, but the problem is the demographics. We have a heavily dependent, young consuming population. .

Even then governor Yari called it the ticking time bomb.

It's been a while I did any reasonable TB. The last one I did was through my bank app in the secondary market. The charges came unilaterally with no breakdown and the investment amount and charges were not much so I didn't stress my self to request for the breakdown.


Regarding your friends situation, the 79k seems to be 10% tax (WHT) on the interest of the TB. It still seems many people are yet to be aware that the exemption of WHT earlier enjoyed by TB's and CP's subscribers have expired. However, it doesn't seem to be reflecting in all banks charges. It seems some banks are deducting WHT while others are not (I stand to be corrected on this). I don't know why they should be difference in that aspect. It should be general. I only got to know this when some CP I subscribed was about to mature last year and they sent me forms to fill for deduction.

@bolded, evidently. From my experience, GT does not deduct WHT (or yet to commence)

I've seen letter from FIRs, and its pretty clear. OR Is it possible a bank that size will be unaware?

I'm just hoping they will not begin retrospective deductions. . .

Chikebrain:

I also bidded with my zenith corporate and the charges were alarming. WHT was 10% of interest with their own bidding fees.
Next I bidded with gtb and they didn't charge WHT on interest but on charges and total charges including WHT wasn't up to 30k.

I dont know if it's because it was a corporate account that's why they charged so much but one thing I'm sure of is that I'd never bid with zenith again. Their total charges are to the roof

I don't get understand the bolded part. Are you saying the there was WHT, but not on the interest?

Am asking because I use GT as well and there hasn't been any WHT on my TB investments so far.

Sigh. All sides should exercise restraint, that's all I know. I will never EVER support the mindless slaughter of innocent civilians in the guise of looking for terrorists.

War is not a good thing

All is well oo.

Somebody say; "I got the power!!!"

How much? 😁

Honestly I think say na only me notice. This govt has on panic mode since, and I really have to wonder what it's all about.

And don't tell they care about possible damage or fear of it being hijacked. Nah.

There is more to it.

This is serious. Enugu Lagos that is 150- 200k, How much would they now charge? Sigh 😔

SpaceX:
Trump has five kids and ten grandchildren. Between scamala and Trump who keep the society going? Why will you elect someone who failed at her primary assignment(giving birth)? Scamala doesn't have any idea on what it take to cater for someone. It's the duty of women to bear kids!!! And she couldn't do it!!

Amazing !! of all people, it's the p$$y grabbing, serial adulterer, pOrn-starr froliking Trump that best epitomises family values? compared to a relatively scandal free Harris, just because she doesn't have her own children?? Amazing

No I'm not judging Trump, just trying to understand the queer logic here 🥺

WritterNg:


Lol. 🤣

So Russia isn't afraid of striking NATO anymore?

Lots and lots of Russian missiles and drones have hit many NATO territories over the course of the war.

Do you know how many times Russian warplanes have flown into NATO airspace? Ask Denmark, Finland, Netherlands, Poland 😁

Or better still, Google it. You'll understand why 32 world powers including the US are scared shitless of Russia.

Una go dey make mouth Cho Cho.

When even Putin himself has made it clear he's not under any illusion he can successfully go against the NATO alliance, you dey make mouth here.

Naturally the alliance will not want to escalate tensions, and so would always have some restraint. However to claim they are 'scared shitless' of Russia is a sick joke.

nolamicautos:
See how some companies will start retrenching. Some will even break the companies to like 2 or 3 subsidiaries so they can be fewer than 25 staffs. May God help us in this COWntry 🐄

That is my biggest fear. Or some may make the job causal or part-time basis which the law also exempts.

I think the law still needs some amendments

GodHimself:
How please?

The reason I needed DSTV was because of movies (I'm not a sport person), and that I can get from Netflix at far cheaper rate. For News I use YouTube

Well for me it's still ok. Compared to DSTV

Hmm. Na wa o 😳

Obidients are weekend

Good question!!

The claim is that he was given subsidised dollars to enable the completion of the refinery. Honestly to me, that issue is neither here nor there. Bottom line is we can the result! He delivered!!

What about the billions devoted to TAT of our state owned refineries?? Why is no one asking about that??

Jeans601:


But dangote use our dollar at subsidized rate to build the refinery.

So?

Am not really a fan of Dangote, but I don't like the way they are treating him.

Govt should look dispassionately at the bigger picture. Is it more profitable to continue paying subsidy to fuel importers or to give a fraction of that money to Dangote, if in the end it guarantees cheaper fuel for us?
