Mr Ass licker, your types are the worst kind of people to have as subordinates.

Focusmind:
Just find a way of "ass licking" them. My first boss when I joined the banking sector was a woman. I would praise her to high heaven. Sometimes she came with food from home and while eating it, I would be like, " Madam, this food smells nice and your husband must be enjoying". She would laugh and always found ways of trying to tell me things so that I would give her the kind of answers she would want.

I would praise her and her kids to high heavens to the extent that I had to come to her house to coach her son that was preparing for Federal government college entrance exam then. She was so impressed that I was favored among the staff under her. She was mean to the core and was dreaded by all, but I found favor with her. Sometimes, she sent me to her house with driver to pick up something and I practically warmed myself to her. It was a game I played very well since I could not change or select my boss. She was the one doing appraisal and a lot of things are taken into consideration. If you have been into corporate world, you would understand.

There was time she did 10 years marriage anniversary and invited everybody, including staff. I was practically serving food, doing every chore. When people left that Sunday evening, I went to the back of the house and started washing plates and coolers with her Nanny. She came to the back of the house to drop some plates and found me and shouted that I should leave the place and stop washing the plates. I said, " madam, don't worry, it was nothing." She stood there and was looking at me.

It was around, 8:30pm and I was about to go. She was staying in a massive duplex in festac, while I was leaving at Ire-Akari estate. She insisted that I should not go, that I should go and sleep at their boys quarter. But I told her that tomorrow was Monday and I needed to go home and prepare for work. She said I should not bother coming to the office in the morning and should take two days off. I did stay in their house, helped her kids with their weekend homework and other things.

In the morning, before leaving, the husband gave me N10k and one new Turkish suite that he has not used before. The man is well to do anyway. Since that day, I was one of the most favored staff, recommending me for promotion. This was someone that everybody saw as "wicked" and feared by staff. She could shout to people anyhow and woe to you if you fail to balance your investment account after close of business.

When an opportunity came for someone to be recommended for a new project, she didn't waste time and put me forward. It was not that I was not good on my job, but I needed to build good relationship with her to help my career. In life and in corporate world, your boss can determine the trajectory of your growth. You must manage the person and play to his/her sentiments and massage ego.

But you must know your job and be dedicated. Adding interpersonal relationship and managing difficult bosses are just the icing on the cake.

In other become a yes man so that you get into your female boss's good books.
That is just disaster loading.

It is quite unfortunate that you turned it around and made it about the subordinates instead of the real culprits which are some female bosses

Nijagogetsense:
Female boss are the easiest personality to deal with. It's not about them, it is about you.

When dealing with a female boss, one thing you need to master is your emotions. Forget your ego and stoop to conquer. Make sure you always compliment them. Anytime she make a decision, flatter her and say you look up to her. Bingo! You're starting to getting her fall into your trap. She will start thinking about you. Don't stop there, buy her gifts. Compliment her. Make sure you know more about her. Make her a friend. Be interested in her like a family. But never lose yourself. Be professional in your work. Watch as events unfold and she will be fond of you.

You read about the alleged offences of abokifx owner Oniwinde Here
https://nairametrics.com/2021/09/17/mr-oniwinde-the-owner-of-abokifx-is-an-illegal-fx-dealer-emefiele/

Ade3131:
You guys need to know that BDCs are licensed operators and not just some scaliwag dealers. Some banks have BDC registered as subsidiaries....

I need to understand the rationale for the ban of AbokiFX b'cuz we're yet to hear his real offence. Was it that he now buys and sells FX illegally?

Or his offence is that he owns a platform that reports the value of Naira against foreign currencies on the parallel market?

I know the government will be sued again and as usual, the government will be made to pay for damages.

If a good percentage of people are using abokifx to guide them when they want to buy and sell forex, then yes, abokifx is contributing to the fall of the naira, if indeed they're manipulating the rates.

gurunlocker:


Be like say everyone don dey useless... Come out, let's fight?

Abokifx if not your problem, stopping them won't change anything. All those absurd policies are not working and you are blaming abokifx. Blame the failure of an administrative instead.

Naira is doing a free fall currently, less than 2 weeks ago, it was 539 and today, it's 572!

This is a good suggestion. But isn't it an over reach?
I don't think the CBN has the mandate to do what you suggested.

daddytime:
Start with the major FMCG's (The Dangotes, Unilever, Nestle, BUAs et al

Ascertain the profit margin from each of their products, check out what percentage profit they are making on each product, weigh it in dollar terms against the official rate at which you sold dollars to these manufacturers, and then project and enforce to them how much they should sell to the citizens who are in the majority and the ones the leaders fought tooth and nail to come "serve".

It might be a seal?

I did a data cost comparison between glo and mtn using glo's and mtn's websites, yesterday. I was surprised. Mtn's data plans are cheaper than glo's data plans.

your own list is even confirming it.

I never thought Mtn's data plans would ever be cheaper than glo's data plans.

What kind of work does Dangote's daughter do

AuroraB:
Dangote's daughter isn't all over the place, doing nothing. Not because she's Muslim but she's got wisdom. She works 9-5 daily while you are slurping and swapping dog's spit for content. Next would be pole dancing or what

Mtcheww. ECOWAS that is filled with corrupt and bad leaders.

For years I have been saying this, many of the people in Nigerian prisons are innocent especially the men. The Nigerian police force is notorious for rounding up any young man they say on the streets especially at night, brand them killers, cultists, yahoo boys, rapists armed robbers etc. They parade these people and throw them in jail sometimes to be forgotten.

Yet many Nigerians especially young men are not taking this heinous acts seriously.

It gladdens my heart when i see that there are other men that are seeing and thinking similar to me. I have long argued that there is no such thing as toxic masculinity.
I remember arguing this with a classmate of mine. He argued that rape in south africa is high because of toxic masculinity. I asked him, since when is rape masculine? He could not say anything, rather he started sending me links to show statistics of rapes.
Rape is not masculine, so if it is not masculine how is it toxic masculinity.
Feminists just get up and coin whatever suits them and some men just swallow it hook, line and sinker.

Men are encouraged to be feminine under the guise of toxic masculinity. That is a stupid word.

TheDarkGamer:
Feminism has succeeded in making the feminine imperative the primary objective for all humans.

In the past, I used to think that feminism was an acceptable movement that would benefit all genders. I couldn't have been more wrong. I also used to think that redpillers or people in general that opposed feminism were extremists or selfish.

The problem is that, on paper, feminism looks like an okay movement. However, the reality couldn't be more wrong than this.

In reality, feminism is set to establish itself as the ultimate way of life with women at the top of the food chain. I know that you're going to start wondering, let me explain myself.

In fact, the word 'feminism' is gender biased and does not support what feminists say it stands for. If feminism was all about equality between the sexes, then why use a word that places so much attention on one gender. Why not use words like 'egalitarianism' or a phrase like 'equality between genders'?

Feminism acts like females are victims of an oppressing society, but at the same time they project women as independent human beings. Women are painted everywhere as vulnerable and helpless but they expect people to take them serious in other situations.

It just points to the universally known fact that women are naturally manipulative. They only use their feminism card in situations that they feel like and in other situations that require real work, they deflect.

It is also universally known that a woman greatest is her sexuality. She uses this to get all her needs and desires and to manipulate men in the process. Since men have low sex control, they become easy to control. Why do you think that in this feminist era, sexuality is broadcasted and encouraged, even in unhealthy doses?

This is because it gives women the freedom to exploit men and have control. Well, they can argue that it's not their fault and it's the fault of men. They aren't wrong, if only men can exercise more control over their sexuality then females would lose their stronghold. This is unlikely to happen though.

Another thing to note is that nowadays, masculinity is seen as the sexual ability of a man. To be honest, if as a man you have this line of thought then you are operating in the feminine imperative. Females control sex and if you are going to qualify your essence as a man by measuring your sexual prowess or ability, then you have been exploited and you are being controlled by feminine manipulation. This is one of the reasons that feminism is so strong.

In the past, men were judged on their ability to do things, dominate and be masculine. In the world today, it is the opposite. Men are encouraged to be feminine under the guise of toxic masculinity. That is a stupid word. Feminists are also trying so hard to erase gender roles which in the process destroys masculinity. This is the very essence of a man and the reason for the progress of civilization. Examine the media closely and you would see what I'm talking about. Virtually all the movies have feminist ideas and de-masculinating themes in them. I mean every single one, especially recent media.

I noticed this clearly in the fifth season of Money Heist. Manila is a transgender female who transformed from being a man against the will of her father. She also disregards her father's good wishes and advice, and sets out on her own. Typical American culture. In the scene where the army was coming to kill the robbers, they painted people and anything that opposed feminism as the bad guys. These people include persons who are not in support of homosexuality, and others. In another scene, Manila's father has repented and realized his 'mistakes'. When Alicia Sierra gives birth and Marseilles buys pink stuff for the baby, he asks why, dismissing it as conditioning. What if the baby wants to change genders in future? Only a discerning person would observe this, and since most people are still in the matrix they would not notice this and all this conditioning by the media would mould them into what feminism wants. It begs the question why?

Why are all the songs in the media about women? In the past, I still remember genres like reggae, highlife, country etc music being popular, but these genres are slowly fading away to make way for songs that revolve around women. Why?

If feminism benefits both genders, why all these propaganda and focus on only the female gender? With the way things are going, the future is definitely female.

There are a lot of things to discuss about this and in subsequent posts, I would talk more about it.

That quoted part reminds of men that:
1. brag about how long they last in bed
2. asking the girl if she enjoyed the sex
3. asking the girl if he is better than the other man she had sex with

Females control sex and if you are going to qualify your essence as a man by measuring your sexual prowess or ability, then you have been exploited and you are being controlled by feminine manipulation. This is one of the reasons that feminism is so strong.

Zabiboy I hope he answered your questions perfectly.

TheDarkGamer:
Feminism affects your way of life and how you enjoy your life.

In a feminist society, the focus is on females and males are seen as second class citizens.

As a man, you lose employment prospects, you are seen as a demon and a potential rapist, their propaganda also aims to condition men into unconsciously accepting their ideals through subtle means and manipulation, you are unable to voice out your thoughts and opinions because it would be termed as hate speech, you will be called a rape apologist or a misogynist. All these occur in feminist societies which are mostly in the west, but we have begun to see such behaviours and acts in Nigeria.

Also, since feminism aims to de-masculinate men and eradicate gender roles, other men can be a problem to you. Those men stupidly and blindly argue with you and may attack you to prove their worth to a woman.

Feminist propaganda in the media will affect your children if not guided closely, but it is not assured that even with guidance they will be completely free from the conditioning.

Feminism also makes you a victim of society. Women can sdo whatever they want and get away with it if they play the victim card. However, you cannot because while manipulating you to act feminine like, in situations that call for it, you will be asked to man up. That's plain hypocrisy and double standards.

Feminism will affect your mind and make you question reality. If you are openly voice out against it, then you will be attached by emotional and hypocritical females and also by manipulated men.

I fully realized how harmful this is because I just finished a three week course in my university in Canada. Part of our activities was to review resources about the school's policies concerning equity, inclusion and diversity. We also had to watch a video about sexual abuse. The speaker was a man who painted men as the problems on the society and his focus on his talk was about that. He made females seem innocent and men like devils. We understand that men sexually abuse females more and have less control over their sexuality, but he should have taken a better approach. Especially since the majority of his audience were high school graduates and young adults. Subtly, this kind of thinking would be planted inside the heads of males and females, and this would affect us.

It would be hard to speak up against that kind of teachings especially since Canada is a highly ranked feminist country with liberal rules. However, I will speak when I am opportuned to even if I risk the possibility of being rusticated. That shows you how deep feminism is. Why can't we speak against it, the same way they speak against men?

Then, there are the extremely unethical sides of feminism such as eugenics, abortion and planned Parenthood. One of the pioneer feminists, Margaret Sanger, introduced planned Parenthood. Her aim was to target blacks because she was a racist and felt that they were unfit for living. Eugenics is an area of science that deals with breeding of a whole race or species. Some Europeans like Sanger wanted to eradicate 'scum' in the society and create a perfect race. The same things the Nazis were doing. Those scum included blacks, mentally unfit people, physically damaged people, poor people, unintelligent people etc. The list also included people of their kind, and wa bit only limited to blacks. You have to wonder the rationale behind that. She was openly racist and supported the eugenics research, but also created planned Parenthood which today is mainly targeted towards the black community. What I'm saying is that feminists can start to eliminate men through abortion and other unethical means, while reserving the ones that meet their criteria for breeding purposes. I know it sounds extreme, but it's a possibility in the future.

Feminism has also taken over the media. I won't go much into this because I expect you know what I'm talking about.

Feminism has done a whole deal of wrong to the society and men at large. It affects you as a man in conscious and unconscious ways.

God bless you.

This is a good idea. But just like so many other policies before it, it is bound to fail. Why?
Because, our system of governance(our structure) would not allow it to bear fruit.
Our unitary system of governance would not allow it. This is coming from the FG, how many states are interested? How sure are you that the next president would even care about it or even the next state governor in a case where a state is interested?

Nigeria needs to sort out it's political system first, then all other things like sports, the economy, health etc would fall into place

https://www.completesports.com/oliseh-odegbami-amiesimaka-galadima-13-others-in-committee-to-produce-blueprint-for-nigerian-football

That is a good idea.

iconnecta:
good.
NCC should block it too.

then CBN should develop central APP and website for FX checking

Please could you explain the havoc abokifx is causing, it is obvious that Many of us are not even aware of it.

AutoReportNG:
You call this dumb? If only you knew the havoc abokifx is doing you will celebrate this move.. Next is shut down the website

How sure are you that abokifx manipulates forex rates?

property123:
I am cool with this decision. That site manipulate FX rates. Someone wakes up and click on the site and tells me that is the rate he will work with. Majority of FX buyers or sellers are speculators waiting to reap massive IRO at the detriment of the overall good of the economy. The black market needs to be eliminated by any means.

Google has an app for forex rates? Please what is the name of the app?

profmallor:
Lol, so this is CBNs solution to the economic crisis they have unwittingly landed us into. They should also write google to block their app as well useless and clueless CBN. They believe leave the innocent man, he is not the reason for their infinitesimal confusion.

It is possible that powerful politicians and businessmen are behind the BDCs.
It is also possible that the BDCs have nothing to do with the falling naira.

Paxxcarl:
Honestly but why can’t cbn enforce the official rate?
Which I believe is around 410 to a dollar
Scrap the furking black market for Gods sake

Actually he would still be better off. Because, he has dollars that he can convert to naira. Eg if he has $2,000 and converts to naira with an exchange rate of ₦500 to 1$, he would have ₦1 million. So you see even if things are more expensive, he would still have more naira to spend because he is converting from dollars to naira.

danowena:
I believe you are abroad and thinks ur dollar has more value because it gives you more naira. Then you are quite myopic because the cost of everything increases as the naira is devalued since every thing is imported.
Keep praying for the economy to go down rather for it to be stronger.
You also forget that whatsoever investments you make within the country is also reduced in value.

Hmmm. You are making sense. But note that the BDCs have not stopped functioning. The CBN just stopped selling forex to them. But they can source for forex from other sources, therefore, they are still in operation.

alizma:
You don't know how their action can work against the CBN measures to bring the rate down.
About 80% of the people using the black market get information on the rate from their site, now that BDC has been stopped, it is illegal for them to continue to post rate for the business they are not allowed to run again but unfortunately this guys can use their platform to create artificial rise in the rate which will eventually create rush among the buyers and before you know it, the artificial rate becomes the actual rate on the street (black market).
The only rate that should be publish is the bank rate, whatever you get your own outside is your own business which you can share as an individual but not as an organized body.

Are you saying that, abokifx manipulates forex rates? If yes, how do you know.

daroz:
But the website is still live (viewing from Europe) cos I don’t see how just shutting down the bank account will affect the rate manipulation.

How sure are you about this?

RichDad1:
The CBN is getting bolder finally.
These FX cabals will surely fight back. So they should brace up.
Funny majority of these aboki bureau de change are not Nigerians. They’re mostly from Niger republic.

What do you suggest?

Realdeals:
I was ruminating on the fact that CBN needs to monitors businesses that obtain FX at official rates from banks, most of them are greedy. They get FX at CBN rate to purchase goods and uses the AbokiFX rate in calculating selling price to the public, which isn't fair.

Blocking AbokiFX account won't solve it either.

But, what abokifx publishes, isn't it what is on ground?

lwisee:
Good move, most people sit behind their laptops, check the exchange rate on abokifx before giving you quotations.
The next thing you hear is 'Oga everything is expensive now ooo
Even 1 dollar is now N560 I swear, you can check abokifx'

Government need to shutdown the website as well.

How do you know abokifx publishes false narratives?

Nukilia:
CBN is now waking up to the monsters who have destroyed our economy with their false narratives!

GRTBR

Well done Abia state
