the hatered on dangote by most Nigerians is totally unacceptable.
well that's one of the many problem people face when they become influential. hate and more hate.
any small negative rumor about you is quickly beleived and spread without fact checking.
A bag of cement in Ghana is 2,350 factory price.
Ghana has low production cost compared to Nigeria with their stable electricity.
Dangote cement price in Nigeria is 2,450 factory despite it's massive cost of production plus it's unofficial tax(area boys matching ground) and heafty insurance fee( dangote truck is most vulnerable to attack in Nigeria due to the fact that people beleive his fettish) poor man thinking if you ask me.

if the price of dangote cement is Nigeria problem, why is no sane individuals asking why the price of his other competitors not lesser?

BUA, IBETO, ELEPHANT e.t.c still sell at similar price range with dangote.
BUA cement is even more expensive than dangote cement here in Abuja with #100 difference.

FOLYKAZE:
Cement is sold at the rate of ₦3,000 per bag. It should go for ₦2500 as stated by DCP but we need to honestly add logistic cost, transportation cost, and other expenses like store rent, security, loading costs from the retailer and distributor end. Also note that retailers are selling for profit, not running charity.

dangote sells at 2600 and charges customer 3h for transport.
meaning the cost price is 2900.
ordinarily the selling price shouldn't be above 3200 nah.
why on Earth is it selling for 4k that I don't know?

Did you read the previous thread where one resigned cuz of hunger and not being paid??

see my guy, don't believe everything you read in the news.
the media has it way of inflating the whole situation.
a private soldier in maiduguri receives about #55k as monthly salary.
#20k as monguno allowance (not regular)
#45k as special force allowance.
also they are being granted bonus for every successful operation.
I'm telling you this first hand.
it was in the same news we read that soldiers are still using weapons used in civil war which is pure lies

Goalnaldo:
Soldiers and teachers ought to be the highest paid in the world especially Nigeria but the reverse is the case. In Nigeria, their reward is usually in heaven.

nigeria teachers don't deserve high pay.
they've lost that privilege a long time ago..
their attitude of oppressing their subject and their careless nature that costs students a lot is enough reason to.

heendrix:
So sad.... u got ur superiors treating you as tho y'all ain't humans while some are overstaying and are not released others are not paid or given food to eat and no one is talking bout a revolt that would be felt over the Nation

What we have in this generation are they really soldiers or Boys scout

some overstayed yes.
not paid or fed No.
sometimes their feeding is being delayed due to uncontrollable circumstances but doesn't change the fact that they are well fed.
they are paid their salaries in full, paid monthly special force allowance and also paid combat bonuses.

I respect this man more often than I don't. very real, direct and same time diplomatic.

Jamesz12:
Na dem Lie Mohammed people

I would have taken the story for real if it were other sources but not Sahara reporters.
it was the same Sahara reporters that claimed nigeria army are using civil war weapons to fight bokoharam..
you could imagine the level they've deeped their lies to.

nogragra:
Fighting on empty stomach and poorly equiped at that. Nigeria is dead. Tinubu get your head examined with your 2023. By the time its all over beggers in ebute meta will be richer than you. Fly wey no dey hear word na im dey follow deadbody into the grave.

saddist everywhere displaying massive ignorance in a bid to sound intelligent.
let me enlighten you a bit.
every special operation or victorious attack by soldiers in maiduguri comes with a whooping sum of 100k plus to private soldiers.
they are paid mungono allowance of 20k monthly as well as about 40k special force allowance.
all this with salary exclusive.
next time take your ignorance to the tunnel.

Brunosamel:
I don't know which one to believe, which one is true or not,
I weep for Nigeria soldiers cuz the government has failed and the top officials have failed them too...

if it were soldiers being killed and attacked, even without photos you'll jump into conclusion.
one way to spot a saddist trying to appear patriotic.
by the grace of God we with positive intention would always triumph in the end.
saddist everywhere..

oz4real83:
Do u still remember what they taught u in school as one of the characteristics of money that "it must be relatively scarce"?. If u keep on printing money, it becomes so common and loses that basic characteristic of money. That is why inflation is also defined as too much money in circulation but little purchasing power"

money in Nigeria is hyper scarce.
we need to print much more to make it relatively scarce..

Amaechi.
one of the few result oriented and proactive men we have in Nigeria.
the likes of Amaechi and el-rufai are two separate individuals who can grind out results by all means.
their past records and current records had slot of positives to take from..

Nigeria as we already know is already in a state of comatose.
the leaders are bad and greedy while the masses keeps creating liabilities and are also lazy.
the time for emotional thinking is way past us, the pace at which Nigeria is going backwards is beyond redemption.
the smart political elites have already seen this and are already planning their future outside of Nigeria so also the intelligent few amongst the masses.
I read on fronpage this morning when some individuals were rating their state govt performance. barely you find a governor who is being rated above 5. is it that bad that no governor is doing fine??
Edo state governor yesterday while exposing the nigeria govt who had to artificially print up to 60billion naira as allocations clearly pointed the faults of the masses too.
a part which I'm sure most lazy Nigerians would love to ignore but choose to wail.

in the words of obaseki.

“Everywhere else, government rely on the people to produce taxes and that is what they use to run the local government, state and the federation.
“But with the way we run Nigeria, the country can go to sleep. At the end of the month, we just go to Abuja, collect money and we come back to spend. We are in trouble, huge financial trouble.

the truth is unlike most countries, Nigeria has refused to be productive in generating revenue.
we love things at an extremely cheaper price.
majority of govt organization are running at loss.
in saner climes, organizations apart from security are profit generating.
they generate their own salary and remit to the govt but here in Nigeria, we generate nothing.
infact govt subsidize our running cost and at the end of the month we go home waiting and expecting salary.
the moment govt tried to increase tax so they can manage our ever growing liability the masses object.
these same masses including the educated ones would strongly stand against any proposal to regulate our birth rate.
they prefer giving birth to hundreds of children and expect govt to keep subsidizing the school fees of these kids.
money that should be channeled elsewhere would be used to manage the stupidity of others.
Nigeria has two options which is either to keep wailing till we are finally buried or we wake up from our slumber and start thinking how we can generate revenue from all sectors including the security sector.

Mekadone:
The sad thing with foish Igbos like you is when you foish si k brain dead Igbo tribes denigrate others daily on NL we do see your father running around naked like a bigoted clown that he his but immediately they are paid back in their own coin you igbotic clown of a father just merges from hellfire where he as been condemned with the kind of rethorics in your comment.

lol.
I'm not Igbo neither am I from the south.
I'm from the north.

Bbocep:
May you a Kanu rot in the deepest part of hell fire with your changed view. May it never be well with anyone from your entire household be it dead alive n unborn.

if raining curses on peoples unborn generation is your way of life..then you lack rational reasoning a d as though you ain't fit to control ebmven your younger ones.
fellas like you would suffer the consequences of other peoples action.
in life, we get what we give.

We don't reveal things of this nature, but it's a story for herdsmen in Rivers state.

I read a post on how some herdsmen attacked a community in Eleme LGA, Rivers state. I pray the story isn't true.

On that thread, I noticed how some Fulani people or apologists were insinuating things with pride, so I decided to share this true story.


Let's start:

Listen, let me tell you a true story you'll never forget.

In my community, in 2015/2016, after the election, PDP and APC turned their issues into cult fight in Rivers.

The cult groups in the community became violent and before we knew it, they started killing one another.

We thought it would end there, but they started kidnapping and hurting innocent people. If you're rich, run, else you'll be kidnapped or killed.

When all the rich men ran away, they started hurting the average ones. One of the cult groups was too bloody and merciless. After killing you, they'll cut your head and remove your eyes.

The other smaller groups merged and decided to call for peace but the violent ones kept terrorising.

That was how everyone left the community for them — only the extremely poor ones that didn't have where to run go were around.

One day, 2016, a group of Fulani herdsmen were passing by and saw a guy standing, one of the newly reorganized cult group members. They thought it's a cheap kill, so they shot at him, but it didn't harm him. Black magic, right? Who knows.

In the bush, was his gun. He picked his phone and called his other members to mobilize and come with weapons, since they were stationed at different points to guard the community from the other gang.

Few minutes later, they arrived and opened fire on all the cows — including those carrying them.

The herdsmen ran to God (you know what I mean). The cows were all ******. A surviving herdsman ran to call some army and they came, but the boys ambushed them and took the guns of all the armies.

Their mission wasn't to kill innocent armies, but to tell them to stay clear. As understanding as the army guys were, they realized these guys were deadlier than them — the only thing is the army is wearing authorized uniform.

They gave them back their guns and they left. The Fulanis always brag about how they never forget, and yes, that's true.

The herdsman went to gather his fellow herdsmen, used an old Hilux and came back to fight back. The herdsmen are fetish, the bad boys are worse.

Before they could get inside the community, they were ambushed, their guns taken from them, their vehicle burnt, and they sent all of them to God for judgement.

In summary, a cult boy in this state can easily kill his brother who is a member of another cult group, so hurting a stranger is just like hurting a fly. I hate cultism, but you can't help but thank them when they fight for you in the absence of the government who has refused to fight for you.

All I'm trying to say is: Fulani people should not start a fight they can't finish. No one has monopoly of violence.

Yes, the army is on their side, the government is on their side, but the people and God are not on their side.

Out of 100 Nigerians you meet, only 1 likes a Fulani man. There are lots of good Fulanis, but people end up judging a group based on the bad ones.

Please, you people should stop being violent. No one has monopoly of it. Rivers state people are peaceful people — we only suck blood when the gods are angry.


Stay blessed.

bro well said..
been a while, saw your comment on Chelsea page and needed to check your profile a d yes as usual there are plenty of intellect.

well to be honest, that's the right thing every right thinking individuals should do.
but it's a very difficult choice.
may Gobmd help us all.
El-rufai my kind of person, very objective in his doings.
these are people who Grew/Rose to the top.
they are not opportunist..

that Jago make me lose my mind.

to those cultist wannabe, let me warn you first about the act.
during innitiation,them go drill una, I mean serious beating which may eventually lead to your death( you could imagine losing your life while going bad).
secondly they might likely exploit you to the core, I mean they'll reap you of everything you earn and the funny part is that those street thugs you were better than would be the ones using you anyhow in the name same frat.
little peace of mind and more problems in life.
although few make it out with lots of regrets and scars but not all are lucky.

Everything being equal, a police officer have no right to fire his weapon on open space where there are civilians going about their daily business,,, but welcome to Nigeria a lawless nation where the law makers are the law breakers,,, it's a pity and I hope no life was lost in the fracas

that's only when things are being equal.
this is Nigeria, if all things were truly equal, they shouldn't have tried to beat the police in the first place.
and we know Nigerians only respond to force an d oppression, the reason why they beat police and fear soldiers..

aribasoye1:
It's not about talk and words, Nigerians needs action, enough of those words

if only you know how bad the situation would have if not for el-rufai proactive nature.
beleive even maiduguri would have been child play.
some powers are beyond his control..

they enjoy their company, but have little respect for them.
girls like bad and confident boys with good humour.
well even men respect guys with confidence and humour..

dhope:
I have heard Kwara State salary structure is bad but I didn't know it is too bad like this. My little piece of advice is to keep the job u currently have and double ur hustle to look for lecturing job with ur Master degree irrespective of the location u get it.

standard of living in kwara is cheap though.
but still it doesn't justify that kind of meagre salary.
well the man sef no help himself.
salary of 35k and e go marry wife..
himself no try nah, and e remain for that long ND poor job.
e no help himself nah!!

that philomath university in kuje Abuja, has no location, no website and no Facebook page.
so how on Earth is that university being approved??

this govt is fully sabotaged.
even loan funds,some people wan divert am.
bribe of about 80milion Dollars.
meaning the deal is worth billions.
who we offend??
few individuals want to hijack loan funds meant for the country development.
loans that should be used to exploit our resources so we can utilize them and payback but few individuals wan chop am all.
who we offend again I repeat..
this is just too much to handle.
tomorrow the currency will devaluate because we can't payback these loans and everybody would suffer the consequences of some few..
may God help us..

calling buharis presidency a failure is an understatement.

the only positives in the whole of his administration is the country's rail project.
he couldn't leave the other sectors the way he meet it, atleast if he can't improve them, he shouldn't be destroying them to the last..

Elonmuskfan:
The person who titled this thread “Igbo militants” is surely begging for it.

How people enjoy stoking tribal tensions and inter-ethnic crises by rushing to mention a whole tribe, is very disturbing even for a media house. Which one is Igbo militants?

How on earth do you flex with coining negative tribal affiliations in the media just to stoke tension and sell papers??

that's the terms they use in attaching to fulanis too.
all fulanis are bandits and herders in the eyes of Nigeria media.
I just hope your not being one-sided in your ascertion..

gone are the days where lower price dominate the market. now all you need to dominate the market is average quality, quality adverts and exhorbitant price.

I guess techno are waking up to those reality..

festacman:
Don Jazzy is a man with good heart.

However, the whole failed marriage tale looks like poorly-scripted Nollywood movie. The more you think about it, the more hazy it is. Looks like immigration document-driven marriage shenanigans.

In any case, it is incredible that Don Jazzy and Michelle Jackson were able to keep this failed marriage secret for 18 years inspite of the fact that the marriage wasn't a secret. 18 whole years in this highly SNOOPY generation! Come on, that's as old as Rema is, no pun intended. Even Kemi Olunloyo failed us this time.

Any way, Don Jazzy remains our guy. He is our own. We will always love him.

the marriage pictures are there nah.

just yesterday police station was burnt and prison inmates released.
I sorry for the people looking for the destruction of this country.
keep giving those foreigners more reasons to penetrate your country.
libya and Sudan would soon be child play at the pace were going.
since we don't know the value of our resources, foreigners would teach us the value..

33komkom:
How do you no they're ESN?

the sane way we conclude every news of attack by suspected herdsmen to be fulani.
people only know the value of suspected when it reaches them .

catfrog10:
We all know most of the owners are Igbos. Have you ever seen a Yorubaa spare parts dealer in your life? Do they even know the way or what it takes to import these parts from Japan and Korea? Have you ever seen a Yorubaa at the airport with handbag saying he is going to Tokyo, Yokohama, Singapore, Seoul, e.t.c to import auto parts? Let's be honest with ourselves, everything is not tribalism. Keep burning Igbos shops and think that will slow Igbos down? Only God can slow Igbos down on this earth!

always the victim.
never accepts the consequences of their actions.
always blaming people for their problems.
I weep for you lots.

This coach wey no Sabi score goal nahin wan do come back. I said it we can't keep depending on clean sheets we need more upfront. Playing 3 at d back against a team that has scored just one goal away from home in thier last 10 games is d height of stupidity from d coach.
