If I see Szobozlai, I see Trent, I see Diaz, I see Konate, my mind dey always rest.

2nd half multigoals (1-3)

kollysnut:
If my eyes are not paining me

Rice 400
Beans 400
3 fish at 300 that's 900
Ponmo 2 at 150 that's 300

So very possible my brother...

Even your inflated summation no still reach 2200 na. Where did he mention fish? Why ponmo go be 150? That Na beans 400 for your eyes?

Westchester:
Just two kpomo oo
Been wandering what made the food that costly

😂😂😂 You dey remind me of wetin Seun Kuti talk. Say average Nigerian man go won form say e fit afford am to prove say e sef na doing guy. When you suppose clear them right there that it's out of your budget and walk out.

We go dey stigmatise normal things but worship thieving leaders.

Saudi Arabia will be going home thinking how they managed a draw from the game. Saudi Arabia made so much mistakes in their own box, any other team would have scored at least 5 in first half but miscommunication and confusion was The Super Eagles mantra.

The classic curse of having too much attackers that it becomes confusion.

I don't think people are giving deep thoughts into their answers.

Some are mentioning countries that have high poverty population, that is increasing your chances of coming back as a poor person in for e.g Brazil. Some mention countries that have gone through holocaust, slavery and racism 😭

emperor4love:
no b gun de use kil there prime minister

Everyone was shocked by that. Extremely rare incident. Death by gun in Japan no dey pass 5 or 6 per year. Probably only the Nordic countries have better global rate.

Justiceleague1:
Ye be very correct but mehhnnn,those quakes!!!

Give me the quakes!! The political quake in Nigeria is worse. At least I stand a chance with earthquakes, I might actually survive. The capitalistic government Nigeria is operating without any single check/balance WILL eradicate the entire black population in it.

Please give me Tokyo, Japan

Waking up to BONSAI TREES blossoming with different colors in my yard, taking a walk and watching KOI FISHES in the nearby stream, going to AQUARIUM CAFES, having ANIME drawn on the wall of my corporate office building and bullet trains to show that life soft!

Japan, a country where gun is like a myth.

Nigeria...
But among the ruling class

I talk am. Una only hate una leaders because una no get access to them.

Cromagnon:
pointing facts is not siding with oppressor Mr man





name one person with land at birth without paying a price for it you lazy bones?





is loan a right? Na wa o
Bank should just dash you ppl savings because you said so?





name them






name one successful one





who is oppressing you
Is it their fault you're too dull to see through doublespeak?





so you can't go and learn it on your own
Did they include sex classes how to take public transport or how to build a house?
Do you know how to nack or not ,are you homeless, or do you not transport yourself?



I don't waste my time on victim Olympics
Get strong or get dead

No, no, I assure you, you're siding with your opppresors.

Name one person with land at birth? The children of your opppresors are given free land at birth in any choice location in Nigeria.

Is loan a right? See, as a black man you must begin to evaluate everything you see and like I told you the answer is in books. The banks are built by people who steal our resources and then in the same breathe refuse to offer loans to the people they impoverished. Do you think poor people can start up banks? Regardless of the debt Otedola has, how come they still give him loans whereas you without debt stands no chance.

Lmao name them? If you've not heard of this, then you should not be starting arguments about economics. The rest of your questions are just silly.

From your last phrase, I can tell you've already aligned with your opppresors. Talking about "get strong or get dead" hoping to be an opppresor in the future but it'll never happen for you. They're lying to you because they know you're not class conscious. You go do yessir yessir till your back break.

This Nigeria sef, man go won do business na sleepless nights e go dey get. I'm sure this O.P is not sleeping well at night anymore until the issue is fully resolved.

Overseas, you go know say the issue na smalls. After taking down a police report and bank report, you go know say u don dey vindicated. For Naija, I no surprise if O.P end up for jail without bail.

Also if you're selling goods worth over 1m why don't you have one small CCTV. These criminals knew this and targeted you.

THIS IS A SOCIAL DILEMMA.
I see a lot of people complaining on here, but that's all it would be. A complain on social media/virtual reality where only certain people can push narratives. You're powerless here.

Before social media, such complaints would be heard at newspaper stands. Heated arguments that gives a sense of what's really happening on the streets in the real world. Passers-by, even school children will have a sense of what's going on in the country.

Social Media is a tool our govt are using to disengage our revolution.

A lost country because of a lost generation.

Talk talk talk. When are we going to kill these animals? Me I'm tired of suffering o.

Kunlesina:
Mr President has done well by this provisional increment in workers' salaries across the Nation. In the past few months this man accended the throne, he has demonstrated to Nigerians that he truly has a listening ears and has the interest of everyone at heart. Without tribal or political sentiments, Tinubu is a leader Nigerians need at this trying time.

Haba! Your self esteem is so low that someone doing the least is good enough for you. You're weak. The interest of the political elites at heart you mean? The first place Tinubu turned to to look for money is from the already poverty-stricken masses by removing subsidy despite the several oil thieving allegations in Buhari's govt. He didn't even do oju aye and act like he'll go after them.

Tinubu is not the leader Nigeria needs ever, neither is Peter Obi. We must all become leaders in our own way by organising, resetting the values and deciding how we want the country to be. Follow Movement Of The People on Instagram for more information.

jumper524:
Tinubu is not like some state governors who owe their workers.
Even without federal allocation, he still managed the huge labour force of lagos.
Till date lagos state pensioners are more guaranteed of being payed than even FG pensioners.

It's a very positive from he the president, except Labour wants him to make it 100k while the dollar continues its free fall making the 100k more worthless than it can ever be.

And yes, the president is in a toggle to pay these cash while also managing inflation.
We should give accolades and hope for more not just destructive criticism when you can't proffer even 50% solution.

Nigerians sha! Everybody's acting like they don't know the solution. The thieves in the government are the reason for the inflation. The solution to the suffering is for government to cut down on waste and invest in the labour market and agriculture but our capitalists will not have it. They'd rather ask you poor proletariat to suffer some more.

Birniwa:
For a family of four like myself, 500k looks good. Below is how I break it down, on monthly basis.

Food and other provisions - 100k
Rent - 30k
Domestic Water - 10k
Drinking Water - 15k
Electricity - 10k
School fees for two kids (after taking average as 1st term is always higher) - 45k
Car Fueling and Maintenance - 75k
Cooking Gas - 9.5k
Contributory, Gift and Charity - 30k
Clothing - 30k
Occasional Outing With Family - 15k
Medicals - 15k
Save for the rainy day - 50k
Online Skills Learning - 10k
Internet and cable subscriptions - 15k

My expenses on monthly basis are to the tune of N429,500

If you think this is too high, just know that every individual cuts their suit according to their size. Moreover, if this appears too little to barely cater for your monthly provisions, I pray one day I match this type of stability and beyond.

You not paying your tithe? What of donations for church building and A/C

Childfree:
To be honest, had it been my friend is on nairaland and he saw what you wrote he'll definitely say it is me. Though I less care about some of your concerns.

That is off-grid living and homestead Life. Check out on YouTube and tick-tock to see people living this dream life they prefer.

This is the kind of life I also want.

For me life should be about living, not living to work. I don't subscribe to the 9 to 5, or the work work life that I see people doing. The only necessity in life is food, every other thing are just man's creation. As it is I am not even interested nor do I want the dream wants of the average persons out there; wealth, cars, mansions, alot of money... And the likes.

All I want is to get away from the city and the problems associated with it. The villages also have their problems so I also want to be away from it.

Live in the middle of nowhere in my tiny house. Live a sustainable kind of lifestyle and practice homesteading. Be happy and free.

Unfortunately I am finding it hard to see how it would be possible in this country with the insecurity and the number of bad people roaming about. I am considering moving to Kenya or Ghana.

PS; also in my late 20s.

I wonder what settings are in our frontal lobe that makes people like us think and feel this way about life. I bet you also notice little things in our earth like birds, flowers, rain, sunset...etc that does nothing for other people.

Brother, go find that genuine happiness in this bastardized capitalist world. Go to Kenya. I too have spent hours on youtube watching white people build cabin houses in the middle of nowhere and just engage with nature 24/7 as we were supposed to, its always very satisfying.

In my opinion, in homes, homesteading should be passed down from generation to generation. How to make textile, clothing, how to farm and preserve food should be taught to both male and female kids in the household. These are survival skills instead na phone them put for our hand. I'll not make that mistake with my kids.

I was very serious about going off grid 2 years ago but now I don't know if the dream is still achievable but I really hope you go for it.

turmacs:
don't be stupid, the OP clearly mentioned "app" and not "website"...One would think you'd be smart since you play chess, SMH.

Easy tiger

AImiron:
Safari
According to my phone’s data history. The app has the most data usage.

Hold on, and do you use safari often for it to be so or you feel Safari is consuming extra data than it should.

It's Safari as well here but I do use in downloading iso files for my ppsspp but the data consumed I'm seeing sometimes exceeds what I downloaded.

IntelligentWrit:
You even get money buy table water bruh

Na so table water dey small and bend? Na tap water nau lol besides even table water pay pass pure water these days.

Cromagnon:
if they own it then it's not yours
Nobody stop you from owning means of production like the rich





why
Do you think other countries don't raise taxes?

Guy you annoy me to the point wey be say I grind my teeth, didn't know internet comments could do that to me. And I've found its not your comment per se, it's that there are still people like you who are on the lowest level of consciousness who side with their oppressors in 2023.

Nobody stop me from owning means of production? Then where's my land at birth? Where's my loan from the bank at reasonable interest rate? Where's my seat at the org where rich people like Dangote and Otedola owe us billions of dollars!

"Other countries" use all sort of different methods to control prices of their goods. They even set up publicly owned organisations just to compete with certain industries because you always have to check capitalism, it's very exploitative in nature.

In the end, I can't blame you. Our govt have completed the full cycle of oppression and doublespeak. They've purposely excluded subjects that's supposed to raise your consciousness from your syllabus.

I have an assignment for you, go read all the books on CLASS CONSCIOUSNESS you can find on Google. The solulu to your delulu is in a book, black man.

I don't think people are actually reading this or understanding. They're going to orbit the moon just so they can create art to inspire people. This is going to cost billions of dollars in a world where poor people all over can't have food to eat. Gotta love capitalism.

Chewing gum and egg with water

If you're posting plantain and turkey on this thread, you're either the kids of the middle class who are assisting our political elites/bourgeoisie steal money/exploit poor Nigerians instead of politicising their positions and boycott the bourgeoisie so everybody can live a life of dignity.

Or you're in tech/yahoo

Taxing rich people that own our means of production, natural resources and our ports in a country where prices of goods are not regulated.

In the end, the rich people will increase the cost of their goods and the poor people will suffer.

I hate Nigeria.

OfoIgbo:
You are supporting a transgender president over a gay man. You queers have your peculiarities.

Now this is humour well delivered 😂😂

Ngaljau11:
0ne thing i love my people in NIGERIA here is our adaptive nature
we only complain for one or two weeks and we back to living as if the incidence never happened though

What's funny is they have the power to organise o. I'm looking at how quickly people are mobilising themselves for 'mohbad' and I'm saying "ok I guess they all share that pain".

Shouldn't that be the same energy for food inflation. Even in the north, they're complaining. We all share this pain nau...so what's stopping the mobilisation?

I feel God is giving us a second chance with this Tinubu/Obi saga. We have had a taste of Tinubu's govt for a year and it's very bitter, it is not the type to put faith in as there hasn't been any adjustments at the top. Same elitists pattern of government and more suffering at the bottom.

Maybe the courts and God can rescue us?

DoxxAnon:
Kpomodification! Abi what was he saying?

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

3pointsagree:
I totally understand and support this



Let's use cassava

You sound like those people on pranks that I see where they're told a joke that makes no sense and the person laughs just to escape the awkwardness and he's asked to explain to the joke if he truly understood the nonsense and then he can't 😅.


It's your turn, if truly you understand, explain the joke.

zoghys:
And you with a brain full of ideas, why don't you contest for councilorship in your area. Most of you come on social media to abuse your grandfather's mate just because this is a faceless forum. Ode omo jatijati

Even though I'm not a fan of social media since it's virtual reality and people take on personas, the man has the right to scrutinize those who decided to be leaders, grandfather or youth. Nobody forced them to take on this PUBLIC positions.

lawani:
He is only a journalist and sn anonymous one. Currency is only backed by durable things and not perishable commodities like cassava and presently no currency is actually backed as gold locked in bank vaults is meaningless. It has no effect on anything. Currency is backed by the people who have no choice but to accept it and by nothing else. Inflation is the rate of printing new currency and Nigeria does it a lot as a form of back door taxation.

When you say inflation is the"rate" of printing new currency, do you mean rate as in cost or rate as in frequency?
