This is not the time to apportion blames but to rally in support of d government.

The situation at hands now is grievous and a matter of Demand and Supply. Where demand is higher than supply, the price is bound to go up.

As long as we do not print foreign currencies and our only source of foreign exchange is dwindling, d price of the dollar will continue to rise.

So what is the way out?

1) Leave the market forces to determine d real value. (Which we might regret in a short while giving Nigerians penchant for rounds tripping)

2) Adopt a control policy and fixed the rate at a reasonable value. (which might stifle investments)

ALTERNATIVELY

Block all importation of consumables except capital goods. By this, only goods needed for production purposes are allowed to be imported into the country. others such as drinks, luxury goods, consumables, food items( produce able in the country) are restricted.

EFFECTS :
1) suffer for a long period of time and later break-even.
2) we will be forced to look inward and locally produced what we need which will result in jobs creation and capital growth.

OLUWASEUN OSEWA is a capital FOOL while MYND44 is a small puppet. Ban me now.

Calling Seun names wouldn't promote your course. I think our brothers from the east need a platform like nairaland to promote their idea because her membership cut across different ethnic groups. The problem here is that rather than promote your course, most people here only sow seeds of hatred which is impacting on their real life relationship with other ethnic groups. Even if Seun is wrong, their are better ways of arguing your case. Tagging him a tribalist is to me unfortunate. I believe what Seun did by banning further discussion on biafra is absolutely right. the ban is an holistic one, entailing both pro and anti biafra agitators. Nairaland as a platform has its on mission and vision. If Seun would not allow his platform to promote secession, I think their are so many other platforms like d media (print & broadcast) and other online fora. IF CHANNELS TV CHOOSE NOT TO BROADCAST ANY ISLAMIC PROGRAMME, WILL MUSLIMS GO AND SHUT IT DOWN?

Nope, there is a Law. The decision of the Supreme Court in PDP VS INEC in 1999 regarding Atiku Abubakar and Boni Haruna, their must be fresh nomination. Falake stands disqualified

STOP MISLEADING PEOPLE.
BELOW IS THE DETAILS OF THE CASE, BONI HARUNA VS INEC

By Chris Agbiti
Only a few Nigerians can still, perhaps,
retain in their memories the event of July 16,
1999, no thanks to our collective malady of
amnesia. So, what happened on July 16,
1999? A brief narration of the chain of
events culminating in the said event of 16th
July, 1999 under review may be necessary
for a proper grasp of the lesson. The locale
was in Adamawa State of Nigeria.
The dramatis personae consisted of Atiku
Abubakar, Boni Haruna and two other
gentlemen. Alhaji Atiku Abubakar and his
running mate had just won the governorship
election of Adamawa State under the
platform of PDP in an election conducted by
INEC.
However, before their swearing in, the then
PDP Presidential candidate, Chief Obasanjo,
just out of prison and desperately in need of
a strong political machinery to realize his
presidential ambition saw the usefulness of
Atiku Abubakar as head of the political
structure of late Yar’Adua and thus,
persuaded him to renounce his mandate and
be appointed his running mate.
Upon his acceptance of the offer of
Obasanjo’s running mate by Atiku, INEC
as the electoral umpire officially wrote to
Atiku of its decision to conduct a
Bye_Election to fill the governorship vacancy
he had left behind. However, Boni Haruna,
the Deputy governor Elect, and the PDP,
would have non of the INEC decision to
conduct another election, as according to
them, the fact of Boni Haruna’s victory at
the poll had already conferred on him
certain constitutional rights that entitled him
to be automatically sworn in as the Governor
following Atiku’s abandonment of his
mandate.
And so, to the court they all went to
ventilate their grievances. The matter
commenced at the Federal High court and
raged on until it finally berthed at the apex
court. At the Supreme Court, it became
necessary for the court to interpret Section
45 of the then Decree 3 of 1999 (now the
1999 constitution) which provides for the
conditions under which a Deputy Governor
may be sworn in as Governor. According to
the said Section, a Deputy Governor shall
only be sworn in on the occurrence of such
eventualities as “death, resignation,
impeachment, permanent incapacity or
removal for any other reason”.
It never contemplated such abandonment as
happened in Atiku’s instance. However,
finding itself in such a challenge demanding
the assertion of its role of social
engineering, the Supreme Court, in a split
decision, felt a need to advance a remedy,
albeit uncanny, to the strange constitutional
ailment, and, EUREKA, came the ultimate
remedy that became the commencement of
a political terminal disease for Atiku.
The Learned Justices of the Supreme Court,
per UWAIS CJN (as he then was) found
succor in the dictionary definition of the
word, “ DIE” which according to him
finds synonyms in, “ breath one’s
last, deceased, depart, expire, finish, decay,
decay, decline, disappear, dwindle, ebb, end,
fade, lapse, vanish, wane, wilt, wither, fizzle
out” and finally decided that even though
Atiku was biologically alive, his renunciation
of his mandate as Governor-Elect to run with
Chief Obasanjo as Vice President, in
effect, had the same consequence as â
€œdie” within the contextual meaning of
the dictionary definition of death given
above.
And thus, Atiku was, in effect, pronounced
judicially dead, thereby clearing the coast for
Boni Haruna to be sworn in as the Governor.
While the above Supreme Court judgment
might, probably, have been treated with the
usual exchange of banter by Atiku and his
acolytes, it is doubtful whether he ever took
time to reflect soberly on the spiritual
implication of such weighty pronouncement
handed down from the sacred temple of
justice. Ever thought of why court is
regarded as a “Temple of justice”?

CyberWolf:
Was he duly elected? Who declared him winner? I don't know how you read your own law

The questions are :
1) was election conducted? YES
2) Was results announced? YES (inconclusive)
3) can he validly contest for election without a deputy? NO
Since election was conducted and results announced though inconclusive, and going by supreme Court judgement in Amaechi case that people vote for party and not individuals, also going by section 181 as stated above, d deputy we take over and he shall be swear in as the governor, given Apc eventually wins d supplementary election.

So the government didn't withdraw the money, they only borrowed it to the federal governt by buying t-bills and bonds. All the same the government collected it and used it for recurrent expenditure. is it not thesame thing

You are one of the most sensible persons on the Nairaland. Most people here are just dunce.

Op. I think you are right. Your boss doesn't deserve a person like u. D major reason why people get education is to be able to raise their head in d crowd, you just did that. The assertion dt d boss is always right is not always correct. Microsoft is what it is today because Bill Gate never employed dullard. He employed d best. Those that wl challenge him, stand up to him and do things their own way - independent. The same thing applies to Apple and other top notch blue chips company. But then we need to know d line of business ur boss engage in. If he's d kind that import tooth picks, frozen foods or into other banned products you wouldn't expect him to see good thing in d government. It wouldn't concerns him whether Nigeria economy grow or not so far he's making his own money. To hell wt him after all he is not even giving u monthly salary. He's not doing u any favour by employing you, rather he saw something in you that benefit him. You should be proud of yourself.

Be submissive but do not turn yourself to his slave. Know that you have a say and your opinion must be respected. Some men like women that will measure up to them not a kind of inferior partner and do not over protective of your marriage because u might end up a looser. You need to inform his parents If d abuse continue.
By the way, do you starve him of sex? Are you romantic as before? Do you dress up good at home or go around in one dirty wrapper all in the name of house chore?

Dearest colleagues, please herewith is a question I was asked in an interview that had me blabbing without arriving at any answer. Maybe u can help rectify d answer to it by injecting ur own view here. Thanks in advance as the question goes 'Differentiate between an effective and efficient staff; which one do u prefer to be in our firm'..i blanked really at dx..

EFFICIENT MEANS DOING THINGS RIGHTLY while EFFECTIVE MEANS DOING THE RIGHT THING. i.e if u are able to carry out jobs assigned to u verry well or u hv high turnover it then means u are efficient. on the other hand, u are effective if and when u are able to take up responsibilities and use ur initiative in solving problems without waiting to b directed. Being effective is far ahead of being efficient.
A good mgt expert will prefer someone who is effective for managerial post and efficient person for production post.
