mamagee3:
[color=deeppink]Hi all, my boyfriend does not go out with me. We don't go to bars not go out to do stuff. He says he's a reserved person and doesn't like to do stuff.

But he would often promise to take me out but then doesn't go through with the promise even though I have successfully persuaded him to take me to dine out three times.

So what should I do about this?[/color]
If he doesn't go out with you, take him out fa.

Please can you give us these information these industralist have so we young would be investors like us can see how we cn walk arround these info and please tell us specific sectors in our economy that would tk off from 2017
Baba how can I give you other people's info?? Truth is such info ain't really difficult to come by. For instance, if Dangote is setting up more cement production plants at the pace he is going, what does that tell you about the real estate sector and housing market?

If Masters Energy is building an industrial cluster in the east, and a fertilizer plant is part of the cluster, what does that tell you about the fertilizer industry?

If the Chinese are setting up hide and skin processing factory in the north and you've got a pool of talented shoe makers in Aba, what does that tell you about the shoe manufacturers sector??

Lastly, to answer your question, pay closer attention to the agricultural and manufacturing sector between 2017- 19.

There was a lecture emir sanusi gave how nigerian govt caused recession. Wats your take on that?
With much respect to the Emir, I agree with most of his views but then as Nigerians we need to stop the blame game. That's what we see virtually everyday on Nairaland...the so-called Zombies vs Wailers bull crap. Nobody is discussing issues and creating ideas on how to make things work.

The Emir raised some very important points which aren't much different from what I said in the links posted earlier. You see, a case where we produce a commodity, export it and have the Europeans, Indians or Chinese process it and have it sent back to us will only leave us at the receiving end. And that's where the government needs to step in. Our technology is obsolete, that's why we cannot compete in terms of trade with the Chinese or Europeans. The Chinese were once at this stage we are right now. And what did they do, they sent their citizens abroad to study and learn from the US...now these citizens are back in the country making wave and China is a superpower which it wasn't some sixty or seventy years ago.

Our boys are all over the world doing one MSc course or the other. Why can't the government take away subsidy completely off petroleum products and put it in agriculture and fund research programs like is done in other climes. Let me explain, we don't grow wheat in Nigeria basically because we have swallowed it hook, line and sinker that wheat don't do well in the tropics. But then we saw what the former minister of agriculture Dr Adesina did with the wheat policy. Look, let's not kid ourselves, we cannot continue importing 4million MT of wheat per annum and that figure is rising by 5% annually!! The government and private individuals can set up research labs and fund them to look at how to grow wheat successfully in the tropics and process them to finished products. We can do this basically in all sectors, from hides and skin to groundnut, cotton etc...the list is endless. Just yesterday, I was studying the Malaysian model on oil palm and what they did isn't much different from all I have typed here.

Well sha, you can always refer to the predictions I make on Nairaland. Most often times, they come true. Check this out:

and then this:

You can also read my guide on how we can walk out of recession. Note these comments were made right before we slipped into recession. https://www.nairaland.com/3041326/cbn-relax-fx-policy-act#44592452

Having said this, I must say that the price of crude oil will pick up further in the next eighteen months. Although don't expect it to get to the $100 mark. And our feeble attempt at diversification (the rice industry comes to mind) will help save our much needed forex.

The wise ones are already investing. At the start of the second quarter, Dangote started building two 6MT/yr plants in Nigeria. I know of some industrialists that are putting plans in place to expand...I even had a talk one with one yesterday. You'd be amazed at the tons of information and optimism these guys possess.

I know there have been job cuts here and there, but look at the flip side, most industrialists are waiting on wings to make things happen from 2017 esp 2018...that's the year to watch out for!!!
BusinessRe: Recession, Personal Income And Planning by Allwility:
Nice write up

My predictions: I strongly believe that the Nigerian economy will swing out of recession before the end of the third quarter of next year. And when Dangote refinery comes on stream in 2018, the Nigerian economy will bounce back.

However, I am certain that the lessons of this recession will be lost on many and people will continue with their frivolous spending habits.

Here's a key: Those that invest massively this recession period, will reap the most when the recession is over. All things being equal, the Nigerian economy will experience a boom between 2018 and 2025 when there will be another burst.

FamilyRe: Exactly How Much Money Is Suitable To Cater For A Family (monthly Basis)? by Allwility: 9:22pm On Sep 01, 2016
For a family of four living in downtown Lagos, I believe 70k- 90k will comfortably foot feeding and utility expenses. Don't forget most of the soups you cook at home don't get exhausted that same day.
I remember back then as a corp member, while complaining about my meagre N19800 allawi, a wise woman told me not to complain any further...that there were families that didnt earn that much yet found a way to survive. It all boils down to your financial management and home keeping skills

Am I missing something here?

How the hell is the Igbo man supposed to know the Northerner's father's name is Buhari? So what then do we call the dog? Jimmy? I bet DJ Jimmy Jat would be offended.

What's the bigger crime here? Intent to disrupt public peace by the Igbo guy or intent to commit murder by the northerners threatening to kill him...Abeg the police should take a chill pill here jare.

And I'm ashamed to share the same colour of passport with all this tribal bigots running around on NL. I bet their opinions will change if the names are reversed.

Jobs/VacanciesRe: Obtaining Msc Only Increases Your Hope Of Getting A Job by Allwility: 1:50pm On Aug 12, 2016
There's much truth in what the OP said. In the past, the prerequisite to getting a job in most companies was an O' level result. Fast forward to today and you need an MSc or a higher qualifications for the same position.
I've always opined that the way to go for young graduates isn't the MSc route. An MSc doesn't make you any much better or extraodinary than a BSc holder. Remember the MSc is an addition of three semesters to your BSc...
My advice to young graduates has always been this: identify an area you'd like to specialize, volunteer to work for free or on internship basis, gather as much experience as you could possibly get and do lots of certifications. Hopefully you'd get your big break as you acquire more experience. Remember, companies pay you for what you can do and not the book knowledge you accumulated in school. You can always do an MSc much later...by then you'd appreciate whatever you are taught there.
