but nairalanda1 wants everyone to believe that the reason why the country is not functioning is because of subsidy

it's not the goals that matter. His presence can make two or three players useless in the opposition team as they will be busy holding him down and others will be able to score.

That's how important quality players are

Like it or not, the truth is that over a period of 1 year starting today, even ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS starting at below minimum wage in the USA will live a better life than the a Nigerian graduate earning ₦300K per month.

More important, they will likely achieve a much higher standard of living than their home based Nigerian counterparts in the next 5, 10, 15 or 20 years. Most people know this, that's why migration is a hot topic.

Let's be clear about what I'm saying. Every Nigerian living in the USA is not doing better than every Nigerian living in Nigeria. I'm not living better than my two friends in Nigeria who earn $1K per day working on oil rigs. One of them drives a Burgatti or something in that country, I'm not at that level so I don't even know the proper name of the car.

What we can be sure of is that if you gather 1,000 random ILLEGAL Nigerian immigrants in the USA and take pick 1,000 random Nigerians living in Nigeria and follow them for 10 years, 20 and 30 years, the ones based in the USA will have better HDI than the ones in Nigeria.

Everyone starts their life at sone level. There's nothing shameful about starting at the bottom. I've seen Nigerians and Africans generally come to this country illegally and start from ZERO and achieve a lot over 30 years, I've seen children born and grow up in this USA, get married and buy houses, things very few Nigerians their age can achieve. Me myself I started at $4/hr and if I can get to the USA middle class most people can do even better.

Maybe this is the nadir for Nigeria. Maybe. Very possible, but let's stop making false claims. You're even late to the argument. Very strident opponents of migration like @Sukkot and @Treadway have been on this for at least 2 years and as Nigeria has gotten worse they're gradually and sneakily changing their stance. You should look through their comment record or mine, you can read us going at it. You're not giving us any new lies, we've heard it all before.

Good Luck to Nigerians.

We are not like our parents generation. No silly fake story moves us anymore ! People back home lie so much.

Notice how their sob stories always sound the same and it's always an incessant emergency that only your money can solve. No matter the amount you send, their problems never end.

Extended family back home don't care about you, they care about what they can get.

Focus your money and attention on those that truly care about you. People back home lie to rob you dry

FG Update on FX/Naira:

*On FX Backlogs*

- We met $7 Billion in unpaid obligations
- We had reason to believe we needed to take a harder look at those obligations.
- Deloitte was contracted to do a forensic audit of what is valid or not. The results were startling
-- $2.4 Billion had issues
-- Not having valid import documents
-- Entities did not exist got allocations
-- Entities who asked for FX got more than they asked.
-- Entities that did not ask got allocations
- We wrote to the authorized dealer to explain. Sadly much has not been disputed.
- $2.3 Billion of the validly executed ones including Airlines have been cleared.
- What remains is $2.2 billion. We are confident we will address those. We have come to the end of the road.
- The Naira remains undervalued
- The Naira will stabilise.

*On Interventions*

- We have no illusions that interventions are necessary in our country. They help to channel resources to people however small.
- However, it is important to ensure that the framework is there to ensure it gets to those who really need it.
- The CBN will focus on it's core strength.
- We will be working closely with those whose core strength is in the intervention space.
- We cannot think and implement at the same time.
- We do not have the luxury of failed interventions.

*On the MPC*

- We were concerned that the transition was questionable. We took our time to ensure as much as possible that the MPC is impactful and complements the fiscal side.
- It signals we are moving the MPC in the right direction.
- The new CBN is fully focused on Stabilization of prices and lowering inflation.
- The MPC will reflect the new direction of the CBN focus and core mandate.

*On Communication*

- We are revamping the whole communication strategy of the CBN.
- We are engaging various stakeholders to get feedback on the various things we are implementing.

Rape is a no-no. Who else reckons a tougher penalty should be dished out to rapists.

It goes without saying that, your outfit doesn't give anyone the right to rape you. It's all about the rapist's mentality, no matter what you're wearing.

So as a lady when someone gives you guff like, wear a " decent" clothe or cover your face with religious gear so as not to lure men or let them rape you, all you have to do is say, how about you teach people to control any impulse that might lead to rape!

Don't get out of Nigeria. Nigeria is an amazing country to stay. Everything is working in this country called Nigeria. What else do you people want? There is constant light, our roads are good, the government is working, standard of living is pretty good.

Poverty is not in existence. There is quality education. What about the good health care system we all enjoy in Nigeria? If you ask me, I will say stay back in Nigeria, you and every other patriotic Nigerians will make it big in this country because trust me when I say, Nigeria is heaven on earth. It's no wonder it's called the giant of Africa!

Not wishing anyone dead.

But oh ye God that did it for Namibia, do it for mi fatherland, amen.

Botragelad:
Haha. How have you been buddy?

Botragelad:
They're proper desperate now, innit? No one is falling for their dodgy antics on the ships. The US and the Brits have been giving them a right kicking, and they've been smashing up their bases. So they reckon the clever thing to do is to threaten to blow up the global wires.

Well, maybe when they finally pull that off, their mates and the countries backing them will realise that these blokes are TERRORISTS and not freedom fighters!
