I don't know who signed it. But as at now, Setonji Koshoedo is the National Secretary in acting capacity

It looks like JAMB has also been infected by the Igbophobia disease ravaging Nigeria. Out of 36 states, 5 Igbo states and Lagos (where Igbos live in large number) were affected by a contrived glitch that deprived hardworking and innocent students of their earned examination results. I am curious to see the names of those affected in Lagos. Won't be surprised if they are all or mostly Igbo names.

I watched the JAMB head on TV shedding crocodile tears and apologizing to the affected students. I was not deceived by that public stunt. There needs to be an explanation of how the glitch was so targeted and not nationwide. In civilized societies, there would be resignations and sackings.

Sam Anyanwu is no more the national secretary. The governors choose someone else to occupy the position temporarily

Good. So you've finally admitted that our net reserves hit $3.7 billion at the end of 2023.

And of course it will take you to ash your head at a celestial church to admit that Tinubu ad his superfluous purchases and presidential lifestyle was responsible for downing out reserves to that point.

Maybe, just maybe there's still some hope for you in this world.

Dbegining:
You're saying rubbish. Tinubu did actual plunge our NFR with his superfluous purchases.

And, those figures I put up there are from the CBN. So i should take JP Morgan's data ( a private firm) over the Apex bank of the concerned country. This your brand of weed must be for wild animals.

“The President directed that the forest guards be well-trained and armed to carry out their primary duty of flushing out terrorists and other criminals hiding in the forests for illegal activities.

President Bola Tinubu has approved the establishment of armed forest guards to secure Nigeria’s 1,129 forests from terrorists and criminal gangs.

This was made known on Wednesday by Sunday Dare, the special adviser to president Tinubu on media and public communication on his official X account.

“The President directed that the forest guards be well-trained and armed to carry out their primary duty of flushing out terrorists and other criminals hiding in the forests for illegal activities. The recruitment is a collaborative security effort between the federal and state governments.

“The Office of the National Security Adviser (NSA) and the Ministry of Environment have been tasked with overseeing and ensuring the full implementation of the initiative.

“Thousands of young Nigerians are expected to be employed as personnel of the newly established outfit.

President Tinubu had earlier warned terrorists that his administration “would not surrender an inch of the country’s territory to terrorists, bandits, and other criminal gangs operating inside the forests.” He vowed that Nigeria “would take back its forests.”

As of December 2022, Nigeria's gross foreign reserves stood at approximately $37.1 billion, while as of December 2023, they had declined to around $33.2 billion.

For net foreign reserves (which exclude certain liabilities and commitments against the gross reserves), the figures were approximately:
- December 2022: $30.5 billion
- December 2023: $25.7 billion


As at December 2024 it stood at $23.11billion according to the central bank.

Lastly, the figure i posted about 2012 (the bolded part yeah?) was NET foreign reserves.

Sense is chasing you. I hope it catches you before you pass this your torch to your children.

Qadaffi2idiamin:
Can i tell you that many nations whether developing, developed or (underdeveloped) if any has subsidies put in place.

In US, agro subsidies, in UK same even more with social welfare for the unemployed, in Finland, free education for some courses and cheap for some others, even in poor Mali as you may assume, more recently free education for all from Primary to university level.

Now Nigeria with all her wealth and natural endowment can't subsidize power, energy, nerither health care or education even agro?

What they heck are you saying? That a baboon becomes president and throws the entire nation into penury to please some skinny western folks wearing black suits?

Ogah... you need to study why nations fail and why nations succeed.

I understand the breakdown, but the issue isn’t just about costs. The question is: why are we still facing such high prices when we have a local refinery? We were promised that local refining would help reduce costs significantly. If we’re still paying almost the same as imported fuel, where’s the benefit? The system needs to be more transparent and efficient. It’s not about paying the balance; it’s about ensuring that the process itself isn’t overpriced or inefficient.

If you can remember that during the #Endbadgovernance protests# Nigerians were protesting for fuel price to reduce to 200 naira or 300 naira per litre of fuel.
At least tinubu should sell PMS at 300 naira per litre.

First off, the ways and means wasn't cleared. It was converted to a bond. 40years bond. A debt our children will have to pay. The matter is still in court.

He hasn't cleared he IMF loan cause we are still owning interest. He only paid off the principal amount.

Building our foreign reserves to $25billion is not prosperity. In 2012 under president Goodluck Jonathan, our reserves was at $43.8billion.

It was Tinubu that plunged the reserves to 3bullion in the first place when he went around buying yacht and escalades and a Private jet.

This propaganda will not put food on your table. 30k is not enough money to become a rascal online.

ibabz:
A simple google search would have saved you this embarrassment. You can win an election with propaganda but you can’t run a government by propaganda. You met $35b in external reserves and depleted to $3b and tried to raise it back to the same value you met it and you call that achievement? Pls we are not stu. Pid. If you’re working for your N30k per month is understandable but don’t think we don’t have Nigerians that haven’t been bewitched or hypothesized.

qtx:
What is the meaning of this?

Kelklein:
rather the reverse

Agbegbaorogboye:
It favours him
He'll simply campaign in the north about power shift in 2031. The north will buy it

jaxxy:
I don't think that's any of wikes business since he's a tinubu boy.

So he can put a tinubu stooge as candidate right? I will rather have atiku than tinubu boy wike stooge.
