Rufai Oseni should ask Tinubu that question.

It is not everything PO should respond to. We have passed this stage, what we are focused on is to kick this current failed govt out of office. Period. PO is coming.
Kiss the truth.

You will think he's a worm the way he plays

I was physically in the Middle East in 2003 during the Afghanistan and Iraq war.

The US Air Force carried out all their air strike deliberately. Any news of a mistaken target was a cover up.

The Taliban are known for using human shield.
They have heavy weaponry and Arsenal with ordinary civilian's as a cover up.
The CIA know all those gimmicks.
I pity those women and children that allowed themselves to be used.

ogaemma:
Why will they bomb civilian's with terrorist?
Don't we have trained Air force pilots?
If no, then they should send them to Israel for training and let them learn how to aim only at their target and not attack indiscriminately.

Arostar2023:
Read before you react. There's no where I commended the army officers for carrying out a coup. I merely responded to someone that said that Ojukwu caused the war for selfish interests.

Secondly, was it the Igbo civilians that planned and participated in the coup? Did you not read that one of the beneficiaries of the coup , Aguiyi Ironsi was also killed. And several Igbo army officers were also slaughtered.

So if someone from your ethnic group commit atrocities. That makes it right to kill off other innocent people simply because they are of the same ethnic group?

Arostar2023:
So Ojukwu caused the pogrom against igbos? It was Ojukwu who ordered the killings of Igbos all over northern Nigeria after the military coup? Granted that Ojukwu (as a man he was) took advantage of the chaos to further his own ambition and ideology, but blaming him for what happened is mischievous.

onuman:
It's like one man left a market.

Toxic politics was started by Bola Ahmed Tinubu when he joined presidential race after ignoring all the presidential materials from the southeast that formed APC with him.
It's the turn of the Southeast to present a president for Nigeria.

Dude thinks we don't watch football.

Enzo is doing exactly what we hated jorginho for.

jattopeter:
You have a valid point sir , but what of the one in the Aso Rock?

SuperOnyi:





It's the same everywhere in the world. You can't disassociate them especially the Igbos and their Southern siblings i.e. those that answer similar names with other Igbo groups. The USA can never disassociate from the British no matter how much they have tried, I have heard people refer to "London" as America. The Germans cannot disassociate from Austrians, an uninformed outsider would always see them as one.

Heck, even an average Nigerian refers to Asians as "Whites" even though Europeans and "White" American would laugh at that. Yesterday, my lil bro was watching a Filipino movie (I hate that shít) and my momma kept referring to them as "Ndi Ocha" which is a term used for white people (and also light skinned people by the way). The point is: Even if I explain why they are not "Ndi Ocha" to an average American white Caucasian, my mother wouldn't stop calling those Filipinos "Ndi Ocha."

Finally, whether we like it or not, to outsiders: Austrians would always be connected to Germans, Americans (which are already mixed up with different ethnicities), Australians, and Canadians would always be connected to the British. The South African Boers would always be connected to the Dutch, and the same thing with Igbos and their Southern siblings with similar names.

As someone who grew up with different ethnicities and in the North, I never knew there were any people different from Igbos but answered similar names. I used to look up to a man in our hood, I called him "brother." I liked that man a lot and had huge respect for him maybe because he was confident with women . His name was Onyema and all of his kids answered Igbo names. We Northerners didn't care that he said he was different from an Igbo person, we still saw him as one even though we nodded when he'd explain that he wasn't Igbo.

Funny enough, he had Igbo friends and felt safe with them when things got usually crazy in Arewa (North).

So boss, until the end of the world, people would always do that shít. I have an Igbo mother and I have never heard her talk about some "Igbo" people in the south south. I learned more about this people on NL and the internet. Lol.

RussellRutherfo:
Are you dumb so he won't introduce himself properly before demanding his passport.

You are mad. In Nigeria here where just about any hooligan/airport rat have some form of fake ID given to them by the officers who they collect bribes for on their behalf.

RussellRutherfo:
Did he introduce himself properly and is he on his uniform?!

ogbonti:
I do not blame him for recording them - most of those airport officials are always looking to prey on innocent travellers

NDLEA is not supposed to check anyone's passport - they are not immigration

phantom:
I'll look for it.

YoruBads:
The man said clearly that the coup was not an Igbo coup.


That's why Yorubads don't quote his book concerning the issue of the coup

diggz:
Abeg Dey should start the guy that came back from loan ahead of Nkunku. If possible start Tosin as 9 instead abeg. No need for that fraud!

Blazetrailer:
Lol...utter nonsense! More gibberish and even more buffonery in an attempt to appear more ignorant. I read halfway and could not contain my disdain for brazen half knowledge. Who truky need more schooling here on economics and exhange rate systems.

To start with, someone who does not know the full meaning of a floated exchange system and can not distinguish it from what is being practiced currently is even more ignorant than others he claims he is trying to educate(school). No floated exchange rate system has majority of its forex with the Central Bank/Reseve Bank. That sits with commercial banks. Again, no fully floated system sells forex to black market sellers at a rate different from the ruling market rate. This certainly is not practiced by US Federal Reserve,Bank of Canada, Bank of England, Bank of Australia, etc...who practice fully floated system. Those are just two examples, there are many more.

You could want to argue that these Banks I metioned above also intervene when the market hits a disequilibrium, that is right, but none of them take from their foreing or local reserves to try and force the rates back to equilibrum. They use monetary policy instruments like the LIBOR, prime rates, treasury bond rates/ risk free rates, etc to adjust things. NONE, I repeat, NONE sell forex to black market people at a different rates to the market under the guise influencing the rates to equilibrum and then monitor by taking feedbacks from the same sellers, in a system that has or intelligent information system to ensure credible data and integrity of the feedback/ reports from the BDCs.

Another mumbo jumbo from you is that the aim of unifying the exchange rate was not to eliminate black market, but the question to ask you then is what exactly did the government mean by saying they were unifying the rates?....should that not mean the elimination of multiple rates as there were two rates before the unification?

Nothing has changed, really, the only thingbthat has happened is that the Nigerian government devalued naira(IMF/Reuters/Bloomberg and other credible sources called it out as devaluation in February 2024 when CBN came to announce that there was an error in the system used to calcukate the market rate by FMDQ) amd as such the rates quoted were lower than it should be......imagine? As if they were using MS excel to determine rates before.

To support the existence of black market in a floated exhange rate system as normal using India(uses a managed floating system), Brazil( floating exhange rate system but pegged to USD, EURO and Yuan for imports and exports making it a managed one) and Russia( which uses intervention system before the
war and sanctions crises) while stating that Nigeria uses a fully floating exchange system shows how shallow and ignorant you are with regards to international finance and exhange systems. At this point, I knew you didn't know more than the surface on the subject you were claiming expertise in


I initially thought you had the stuff hence I was willing to engage but reading through all you have posted here, it is not different from what a government spokesman would say. It is devoid of any critical review to be sure of it is correct or not and if there are alternative views to explaining them. As someone else posted, it is lie-lie economics they sold to you all and you swallowd hook line and sinker, without thinking, as they predicted..

Lol...lie-lie economics, announced by the govt., peddled by the lowly intelligents.

Blazetrailer:
I have never seen a more confused contradictions and juxtaposing of realities of the exhange rate systems in one shot...

Two key ones

1. That Nigeria is running a fully floated exgange rate system.? This has been debated several times here on Nairaland and all came to the major conclusion that going by the definition of a floated exhange rate system, Nigeria was not running a floated exhange rate system...all na wash.

2. That there is one unified exhange rate in Nigeria and no black market? (I stopped reading at this point) Why do they have a different rate from FMDQ and a different rate from.BDCs? Why do you even have BDCs when there are banks??

The fact that you are not aware or pretend not to know there is till a thriving black market in the forex system shows how insulated and disconneted you are from what is truly going on.

Kobojunkie:
While at the same time, Nigeria's foreign reserves lost approximately $1.3 Billion. Does anyone else see something here? 🙄🙄🙄

By the way, why is there still a black market when almost 18 months ago we were promised that all forex windows would be collapsed into just the one by the CBN? 🙄🙄🙄🙄

I agree with this rating though.

Atleast in the last 2 seasons, Bundes Liga has improved a little.

astonished:
You are beneficiary of the useless, barbaric & banana republic mistakenly for a country, we are not surprised at your nonsense writeup & your defense.

Nigerian people are very coward, timid & senseless, apart from politicians, civil servant, government officials, govt foot soldier, senseless OBI Supporters, most well meaning Nigerian realized the need for the country to breakup for betterment of the citizens.

People like you should be eliminate, citenzen need to fight tactical & target gurriela war before the country can breakup, because politicians and evil beings like you won't allow
