Overseas, it's also a status symbol. That's why many people upgrade.

IPhone 8 is still good enough. One is just buying the hype, and not a phone.
Status symbol for the poor to impress the poor.
PoliticsRe: Wike Satisfied With Progress On Key Infrastructure Projects In Abuja by ArcFresky(m): 10:28pm On May 12, 2025
Cleanmouth:
Wike the Mr Project.

It took former Governor of Delta State Ifeanyi Okowa 8 years to construct one flyover (sub standard quality)

It took former Governor of Abia State Okezie Victor Ikpeazu 8 years to construct one flyover (sub standard quality)

It took Wike only 4 years to construct 12 flyovers in Rivers State using Julius Berger.

In just 2 years in FCT, Wike has completed 4 fly overs using good Construction Companies. All the roads are designed to last 30 years.

Wike na man you be ✅💪

Big stomach Philip Aduda, I see you
Celebrating Wike for constructing projects, is like celebrating your gateman for opening your gate.
Its his job.
You employed him to do a job.
The Job was done using your own money.
Anybody, with the right support can open your gate.

lies.
it was not broken, yes it was not perfect, it was used to serve a means.
The means was to get people to come and clean yansh.
Now yansh cleaners are more than the yansh available, thats when they know its broken.

Oya tinubu should ask let's see.

Taking off the 40 billion dollars off will ease the problem instantly we faces

Tinubu ask oh
No, you don’t still get it. The paris club loans were first taken in 1964 by Sheu Shagari to build the Niger Dam.

The debt reached $31 billion in 2004, so for 40 years we had been servicing a loan.

Obj was able to cancel by paying $12 billion, we still owed others $5 billion.

Now we owe a total of $95 billion, including external and internal. We can try to cancel, its all negotiation, but we will still need to pay at least $45 billion that we don’t have.

In other words, its negotiation, with something.

Which one be wale edun again grin


NGOZI that walked through thick and thin with Obasanjo to see that paris club write off our debt.

She was always travelling with baba like hand bag at the end we got what we wanted a whopping 12. 5 billion dollars yoke written off from our neck

How many foreign trip (France & UK trip) has wale edun gone with tinubu

Ngozi Ensures that we saved for raining days (over 45 billion + 25 billion was saved)

She Gave us the biggest economy.

She Ensure that naira remain strong.
First, getting a debt writeoff is akin to getting favours. You don’t need to work for it, you just ask.

Second, comparing both economies is unfair to Wale. Nigeria population, problems and other economic factors were significantly better.

Interesting how the part about him forfeiting over $450,000 in drug proceeds to the U.S. government didn’t make the cut. Just an oversight, or was mentioning his drug ties a little too uncomfortable?
I believe all the courts of this world has answered that. From Nigeria to USA.

Truth is solemn, sacrosanct and eternally unchangeable. Destroy it, it will resurrect, bury it, then boom it springs up again.
I am wondering what truth is springing up that has not yet released? Did you even read the judgement?

VnAhunnaPl:
David Hundeyin is a national treasure.
Have you read the released files?
Did you read the court judgement?

We Nigerians are too easily manipulated, can't even deduce hearsay from facts, can't even deduce that we are being manipulated.
Can't even understand that this is a fight betwween Political gladiators using their proxies, and distracting us from the main issues.

I will give you an example. David said the Dangote refinery has never refined any petrol products, claiming dangote was embezzling money?
What did this turn out to be?

The NNPC Portharcourt refinery that was importing fuel and selling it, like it refined it, where was David the investigator?

I will ask another one, when he was granted a Cambrige fellowship by a ficticious scammer, where was his investigative skills?

The earlier Nigerians understand all this manipulation tactics from David, Ben, Atiku and Obi, the better.

Till then, lets just keep deceiving ourselves.

Voting right won’t stop the suffering. It can only delay it.

I don’t blame us, many of us barely read anything in school, talk-less of understanding the economics at play in Nigeria.

No, NorthKorea is, the reason is simple, Russian Oil. Everyone, especially Europeans will suffer.

Even Europeans sanctions intentionally added loopholes, like you can’t directly buy Russian oil, on russian soil, you have move the oil to international waters, then transfer to another ship, before selling.

grin grin, as with all bullies, Trump took on the easiest to bully.

See, the US is strong because everyone uses the $.

BRICs, made up China and Russia together with other emerging countries (which the US cannot control) are moving from $, which will weaken the US.

Now Trump has to choose between BRICs (the future) and The West (loyalty), the West of which is currently in decline.

The question is, which would you choose?

The truth is that no other 'big' countries can shoulder these responsibilities the US have been shouldering for decades.
Only time would tell how these organizations are going to continue.
True, its also the reason everyone uses the $$.

When they disburse this funds/aid, do you think they use Naira or Cedis?

Or how else do you think the hook countries on $$.

Ask yourself, why are the US concerned of BRICS?
PoliticsRe: Lt. Col. Alari, 21 Fallen Heroes Laid To Rest In Maiduguri by ArcFresky(m): 9:37am On Feb 02, 2025
Difrent:
But this same things happen in the South too.... People sponsor other people's marriages
And theres mass marriages , especially in the Catholic Church that I'm aware of
So I don't really get all this noise about sponsoring mass weddings.

Citizens have different needs and its the duty of political leaders to attend to those needs . In many places up north because of the poverty, many eligible young people can't afford to get married , so politicians from time to time sponsor those eligible by paying dowries, getting the wife good and empowering the Groom so that he will be able to cater for his family.

If southerners decides they want their children to marry at a certain age, that shouldn't be forced on Northerners
That you prefer your young girls be prostituting on the street instead of being under the protection of a husband is your choice

Besides it's ignorance to believe most northerners are illiterate
They are well read. What they don't have and resist to an extent is western form of education. You will be surprised that that aboki cobbler is educated in Arabic and Islamic studies equivalent of a masters degree...
First, this is not a North vs South or me versus you comparison.
Yes there are a lot of educated northerners, but compared to other parts of Nigeria, they have the highest number of illiterates.
Now, Its not entirely the people's fault, but that of the leaders, which were actually the target of my earlier post.

Organising mass wedding is NOT giving the people what they need, what the people need is economic empowerment, which is directly related to the education or skills set, which you claim Northerners have but yet remain largely poor and useful to the elites.

Get the gist, the elites have weaponised poverty and economic literacy. Religious literacy is good, but it has only made most, tools for the elites.

That's why today, a Cleric can proclaim jihad on something and hordes of people answer with violence and vigour. Or a leader get thousands of votes just because he is backed by clerics, no questions asked.

Think, wake up!!!

Politicians announcing donations is akin to medicine after death.

Why don't we avoid deaths/war in the first place.

Either you equip the military properly or you resolve the boko-haram debacle by educating and empowering villagers.

Instead, this Northern Politicians as always want to weaponize illiteracy and hunger, while still embezzling money meant for the welfare of soldiers.

You will notice something, they are very good at organising large scale marriage, but they will never organise large scale education or training.
