Let them keep wailing from Onitsha to nsukka.

Bola Ahmed Tinubu will win next year's presidential election and there's nothing obidiiots can do about it. If they try bringing IPOB, they will be severely dealt with.

Bloody drug pushers..

This is uncalled for

iamoyindamola:
Someone said majority of us can't survive in a working nigeria
That statement is deep but very correct

This was said in a reaction to Kizz Daniel arrest right?
We saw how Rufai who speak like an ethical person but when presented with a chance to violate rules and ethics he didn't hesitate to violate them. Isn't it here that someone is calling icing on the cake

Wetin u no know big pass u.

Oga no need for long talks, have this government failed or not??

Like you, I was once making excuses for this government, even after their disastrous first term, I kept saying, that oil prices had fallen and that was why our economy was in a recession only for us now to actually be suffering EVEN as oil prices are now soaring, so you can see that this government is totally inept and incompetent.

There is no straightforward answer to this your question as it is too simplistic.

Donjazet search Dr. Ola Brown's Economics, Banking And Finance in Emerging Markets(Economies), read Hayek's essay titled Pretense of Knowledge, read Varoufakis and Acemoglu so that you will be informed on economic principles guiding development.

nihilistjnr:
Literally every major economy did exactly what Tinubu was recommending during the pandemic.

That round of QE between 2020 and 2021 is partially responsible for global inflation we're now experiencing, but if you want to criticise Tinubu for suggesting QE in 2020, you might as well criticise almost every single central bank in the world.

You are right about that.
I support government spending but I don't support printing more money to spend rather I support cutting costs to weather the storm, but I won't dismiss the idea completely if faced with a political choice.

Oasis007:


.... that Dólt is empty but he seems overrating himself..... LMFAO

It is funny that despite the free lessons Ibime and co have been teaching on Economics he has not learn a thing he will type longworded sentences lacking in substance and meaning to wow the uninformed person.

donjazet:
Just imagine this absurdity.

If you ask me these questions, who I wan ask??

Did we not support and vote for these government to solve these problems?

Did Buhari and Tinubu not campaign to build new refineries, repair the existing ones and increase our oil output?
What happened??

Did this government not campaign on reducing the value of dollar to naira?

In 7 years, we have seen no increase AT ALL in power generation, instead it has gotten progressively worse.
So of what development do you talk about when insecurity and inflation is abound everywhere?

Do you know that all schools in Abuja are on lock down for close to a month now because of heightened insecurity challenges. This is the federal capital itself.
Is this not shameful?

Politicians over promise during campaigns and under deliver during governance when elected because they are limited by budgetary and revenue constraints. How much was crude oil selling our major source of income when this government came into power and how many barrel were we producing?

donjazet:
My friend shut the hell up and stop being an unthinking propagandist!

All other government are taking steps to reduce the effects of inflation in their countries and have successfully done so, few months ago fuel was soo expensive in the west but it has consistently gone down for 2 months now due to government policies.

What has the Nigerian government done to alleviate and counter the effects of inflation, instead you have this sick decrepit old man even calling for more printing of the naira in order to make our currency lose all it's value kpata kpata.

Have you heard of quantitative easing? That's what Tinubu meant by printing more money to spend, it works in the shortwhile but it's not sustainable. Tinubu was speaking in Keynesian terms you can criticise it without dismissing it completely. My friend you have a lot to learn so that you won't come off as boastfully ignorant

donjazet:
That's why I get pissed at people trying to highlight the "good" parts of this government.

Which nonsense "good part" when every single citizen is feeling the heat of your bad governance.
I'm ready to stake 20k for any of this APC supporters to travel by road from Abuja to Kaduna, and then from Kaduna to sokoto. Let's see if you make it alive.

There was a viral post on Twitter yesterday where people shared a part of an old olu maintains song sang in the 2000s where someone in the video was complaining about the high cost of fuel at 40 naira per liter.
And everyone was laughing in the comments saying if only he saw the future he would be thanking God.

For 15 years prior to 2014, the dollar was stable and always averaging 150 naira such that when it got to 200 naira, there was massive outcry, today dollar is about to run to 1000 naira and propagandists here are trying to brainwash you telling you it's out of governments hand, is it not foolishness?

We are experiencing an oil boom right now but instead of Nigeria to enjoy like other oil producing countries, we can't do anything about it, instead our excess crude account has been emptied, our debta has ballooned beyond healthy levels, 90 percent of our budget is ran on borrowed funds while our earnings are used to pay debt.


After seeing the massive economic failure of this government, you still say Nigerians should reward and retain this government, you are a demon!!!

A pure demon!!!

For a start how many barrel of oil are we producing per day?
Will economic growth happen overnight without investment in critical infrastructures like power, education, roads, ports, and security?
On economic diversification you can't diversify an economy overnight it takes years, careful planning, and growing pains.
How will you deal with the monstrous wage bill of civil/public service without incurring the wrath of the people who see government as their own pie of the national cake?
How about our bicameral legislatures who are eating fat with little or nothing to show for their existence?
These are challenges that we must confront and your man will be overwhelmed by them within months

donjazet:
By your logic, let me ask you a question?
If you know that someone was an armed robber who killed people on the highway but in the same vein built a church or place of worship in his community, how do you think such a person should be regarded?


We are not perfect beings but if your bad sides far surpasses your good sides, then you should be outrightly condemned. That's why a bad government must be outrightly condemned, in doing so you set the bar or standard of performance very high.

This your line of thinking is why governance performance is very low in this part of the world.

A governor is given a budget of 500 billion naira, he uses 100 billion naira to build roads, schools etc but then squanders the remaining 400 billion, sharing it with his fellow cronies to the detriment of his subjects and you are here telling us to actually praise the governor for the works of the 100 billion when we know the person is a thief.

You see the problem with your logic?

My logic is an armed robber should be criticised and punished for his crimes and he should be praised not for using money from the proceeds of crime for building cathedrals rather such should be pulled down to serve as deterrent to others, but he should be praised for fetching water for the one that is thirsty to quench his/her thirst. This is my logic and it is clear from the onset but as usual you like inferring that which isn't intended or meant by using logic wrongly.

Nigeria to take delivery of 130-ton railway crane and supporting boom flat cars for the lifting of stranded trains on rail tracks . They can also be used for rail-laying, bridge erection, installation of components along the railway and loading/unloading of cargoes.

Some will downplay the positives and amplify the negatives so much for not being haters, you can hide your creed but your companions will expose it for the observant. From the foremost of our problems in this part is our hypocrisy and being sentimental with truth.
In the same vein you criticise the failures/shortcomings of individual(s), you should also praise their successes no matter how small they are don't downplay them or disregard them completely by attributing them to someone else.

Incredible. Spanish radio claim Barcelona jointly set-up a holdings company to which it paid €150m of its own money to buy its own assets (to inflate value of sale). La Liga rejected it as not "new" money. Barça must now pay €37.5m tax on this payment.

Capaldi:
You are talking in the nonsense. The creativity in Tuchel's system comes from the wing-backs primarily and the attackers similar to Conte and Klopp current system. Who creates for Son and Kane? How many chances created and assists did Liverpool entire midfield have last season yet they scored 94league goals . When the wing-backs have a bad game like against Everton we will always struggle to score or create. Same thing will happen to Liverpool if Robertson and Trent have a bad game. Scapegoating Jorginho is just utterly premature.

I agree with you that creativity comes from the WBs in Tuchel's system but there's a thing called plan B which Kane and Son provides in Conte's system while Salah, Firmino and other Inside forward offers in Klopp's system, who do we turn to for plan B in our system?

Agbadorians trying to argue that the vice president has some sort of power over the president himself.

Effects of too much cassava and agbado laced with ewa and beans.

Who was in charge of privatisation when OBJ was president? Who has been in charge of economic team from 2015 till date? A renowned class rep should know better but what do I know.

Until we address our creativity problem many attackers will struggle to succeed at the club, sign a creative midfielder with an eye for a killer pass and one creative attacker then we watch Chelsea score for fun.

IPPiS uncovered a lot of ghost workers in the Fed Civil Service even though some of the gains made have been reversed by the activities of Nigerians operating the system.

EmmanuelScott1:
Nah the promises made to us in 2015 we dey wait and not those achievements.

Achievements wey no solve insecurity, poverty, unemployment, corruption, naira devaluation and e.t.c

So those employees of NRC, Julius Berger, CGC and host of other construction companies dotted across the country working on various projects are ghosts right? As far as prosecution of cases is concerned blamed the judges who are for hire those ones will dismiss cases based on technicalities despite evidence of corruption. PMB was against devaluation of the currency he argued that since we import mostly devaluation isn't good for us but the economic team headed by PYO supported it so blame PYO for the woeful state of the currency.

PMB Achievements so far, I pray and hope that whoever emerges next year should build upon his successes and address the challenges as government is continuum.

Who saw the Gray's 1v1 with Silva?

Tarkowski my man starts for Everton

Ibime:
Nothing special na him make Palace made him Captain at 20 years old due to consistent performance.

Cobham haters will watch one match, wait for one mistake and think they know everything. No be the same Chelsea wey Arsenal flog wotowoto two weeks ago with all our big defenders. If I know anything about Palace defence, it's that Guehi engages in the duels while Anderson does the clean up. Arsenal right now create a lot of work for centrebacks with their pressing from Jesus supported by Martinelli and Saka. Jesus may not be a composed finisher but he is the best disruptor/presser of backlines. Add the fact that Palace don't have a sitting midfield (they are playing a LW Jefffrey Schlupp in DM), you can see it will be an overworked day for the defence. Same way they wotowoto Chelsea two weeks ago with established defenders

Chelsea don't have a centreback better than Guehi at this moment except Koulibaly. If na lie, call the centreback name.

Chalobah

We should try and understand that English is not Hensben's language of instruction, even though he dribble himself into trouble most times with unnecessary takes.

Frenkie De Jong will probably join Chelsea.

Tuchel: "The 3-4-3 in general, the core and the strength of the formation is a bit deep with 3 defenders and 2 central midfielders so from this maybe the responsibility for the 3 attackers is a bit higher in a 4-3-3 or a 4-2-3-1 because they've, naturally, a bit more support."

"So we are relying heavily on our wing-backs in this system and still we think it is a good structure for the characteristics of our players. So given this, we should also not get confused that we demand the same of the players. The structure itself is never the problem."
"We got new quality in with Raheem which helps us a lot. We get our wing-backs going. Then we need to improve on the inner positions, to be fluid and clinical and create a little bit more support from behind. Let's see."

BlueRayDick:
Alright. I was actually referring to the Gimba post u posted earlier and this one as a rejoinder. But no wam!

No qualms too

BlueRayDick:
Nothing written in that guy's post justifies gifting Niger Republic those luxury vehicles. If Nigeria has refugees being treated well In Niger, Is buying Luxury vehicles to get them a way of reciprocating the good gesture?

Like u don't get? Those vehicles are luxury vehicles and not security patrol vehicles or anything of such. I've tried as much as I can but I just can't make sense of the whole Luxury vehicle gifting abeg

He asked me for evidence of Nigerian refugees in Niger Republic and I have answered that, this question of yours is misdirected.
