Some villages in Nigeria were far better than Saudi Arabia since in the 60s through to the mid 80s but today........
The difference is, they used thier resources to develop their place..

Here, politicians have embezzled our resources and tells us no money.. snake swallowed this, monkey swallowed that,.. borrowing $800m for palliative that would pay each Nigerians N1,640.

In Nigeria, we know our problem, how to fix it but won't do the right thing.

You are even saying 60s and 80s.

If anyone have traveled to any of the gulf states , UAE, Saudi, Kuwait, etc in the early 2000s and traveled there in 2023.. you will be shocked.

You could also use Google time-lapse and see the wonders in these gulf states.

But Nigeria is just jaga jaga.. always making excuses.... no be Ibori they said UK plans to hold onto the $130m they confiscated from him? Imagine what that money could have done in delta state?

Now, UK will use that money to strengthen their own infrastructure and we will huzzle for visa and buy plane ticket to go and see it.
Business › Re: Naira Hits N860/$ Record Low On Black Market Ahead Of Central Bank Meeting by Badgers14: 10:33am On Jul 21, 2023

where is the dollar to buy self?

the floating of the Naira is a great threat to the existence of the poor in Nigeria.
you float naira and remove subsidy at sam time.... jesus



without black market you won't able to source fx at a given time..

its like going to access a service in a government hospital with long queue to see the specialist which might take anytime from 2months.

are u willing to go to bank to wait 2 to 3 months to get Dollars? or you walk to the close by black market and get it today today as time is money
.
you might say there is dollars in the bank... please take a walk to the bank and demand for forex... they will say untill they get willing seller then they will contact u who is willing buyer... untill then no dollar for you.

black market will exist as long as there is scarcity of dollars in the bank.

same way private hospital will thrive once you can't access same service in government hospitals on time
You know, something I never quite understood is why would one need dollars when Nigeria currency is naira.

If anyone want to pay their supplier or pay for this kids education or medical bills abroad the simple way and common sense way would be to just walk into your bank and complete a form, the bank withdraws from your account and complete the wire transfer for you at an official rate.

The system of going to buy dollar in the black market and pay into your Dom account to effect these transactions are ridiculous... it's not like your bank will physically carry the cash to the foreign account where the payment is going.

We just k ow the right things to do in this country but will not do it!!

Help me out with this house.

Is there any iota of true love when a couple is making love together and the wife places her two hands to cover her breasts so that the husband could not have access to them and also put her face away to avoid kissing her man?

This is about to cause separation in a marriage.

you fucking lied, there is no where in the whole wide world that a court will accept an expired document to validate a claim as Evidence. not even underdeveloped country like Nigeria.
Easy on the cussing just learn.

An expired passport does not invalidate someones citizenship. It is still a proof of citizenship but can't be used for travel or for identification..

But expired passport does not invalidate someone's citizenship status.

so what validates Tinubu as a Guinean citizen in the eyes of the law?
In the eyes of the law, a Nigerian with an expired passport is still a Nigerian citizen.

In the eyes of the law, an American with an expired passport is still an American.

An Austrialian with an expired passport is still an Aussie.

it doesn't in the eyes of law. . You say Tinubu has a dual citizenship, then bring the valid evidence not a passport that expired since 2020.
Does an expired passport invalidate one's citizenship? It doesn't .

So if one has an expired Nigerian passport, they are still a Nigerian citizen .

But will need to renew their passport if they want to use it for travel..

How do we know it was not withdrawn? You dont know expiration and renewal is also a control mechanism to check if the use people who clain to hold a passport actually deserves to? Is a form of citizenship verification...

If u r in unilag and ur student id expires, r u mot still thr same person, the same admission but unilag who issued u that id wont even allow say imto any event where an identification card is required...

Again obidients u can build nothing on nothing how many time will i explain expired to you= that it means invalid =0.. You have nothing.. I wont reply you people again as it is waste of time... Una be d real coconut head..
Stay on the topic being discussed so you can understand better..

School admission and citizenship are like apples and oranges.

An expired passport does not invalidate anyone's citizenship status.!!

I don't always comment on nairaland but I think some people need to be enlightened.
Certificate of citizenship or naturalization to a country doesn't ever expire, and it is the ultimate proof of citizenship, whether through immigration, by birth etc. Passport is just a document to travel around and show to people that you are a citizen of a certain country. Yes, passports expire and has to be renewed but Certificate of citizenship doesn't. If my US passport expires, it doesn't take away my citizenship. Revocation of Certificate of citizenship is the only reason you can lose citizenship. So please get the facts right. If you are a Nigerian and you have an expired passport, you can prove your citizenship through other means, including your NIN, driver's license and other nationally recognized documents. I hope this throws light into the discussion. Woke Olanipekun is either naive or playing on the intelligence of Nigerians because he knows alot of people don't have the right information.
Mr. Wole can't come to the court empty handed.. he have to file something in court and that's what he did..

That's a skill from a veteran.

A veteran counsel, when they find themselves stuck in a difficult case or the facts are overwhelming against them or they want to buy more time in the case, they will sidestep/deflect the original argument and open up a different line of conversation in the case and pitch your tent there and see what happens.

(Recall, Mr. Olanipekun is not arguing on the authencity of the passport, he is sidestepping that and arguing the passport is expired cool grin )

This gives them time to find other grounds/arguments to support their case and get the masses talking..

Don't be surprised if this was originally leaked or posted online by someone affiliated to their camp.

Stop lying it was a copy of an expired passport which is my point.. So u dont even know crux of the matter and u jumped.. Tinubu lawyer does not have to defend anything because the expired passport is like tissues paper before the court.. It is expired mean invalid mean not existing.. Obidients must everything be spelt out for u people.. Carry expired passport to embassy na... After all u r the same person, ur nationality didn't change.. Una ho just dey argue without reasoning..
If you have a Nigerian passport, once it expires.. does that invalidate your Nigerian citizenship?

Similarly, if you have an American Passport or a British passport, if your passport expires, does that mean your U.S citizenship or your British citizenship have been invalidated?

ORIENTATION101:
no you re just the idiot here. Tinubu is not a Guinean by birth and he has no ancestral attachment to the country, he got his citizenship as honorary . If you say Tinubu is a Guinean in court, you have to provide it with valid documents not expired passport. The court don't care your emotions what they want is a clear Evidence to back up your claims.
An expired passport does not invalidate one's citizenship status.

Obidient i have told u people to have sense .. Burden of proof lies with accuser.. You have to prove is Guinean... The lawyer knows that is a herculean task for tha accuser why bother? You want him to help pdp? He might actually be cos me sef dont know but a court is a place of evidence... You have proof what u claim.. An expired passport is invalid and holds no water anywhere..
Focus on the topic and don't attack the speaker..

Research, "meta-arguments".

However LP and PDP got a copy of Tinubu's passport was not debated.. Tinubu's lawyer is not even disputing the authenticity of the passport..

His argument is not that the passport is fake but that the said passport is expired.

Good now u r talking.. Can ushow us Tinubu oath of alligence or renunciation.in fact why should Tinubu help u in a case the burden lies with u. ..

There are many chadians in Nigeria, malians and other countries.. How do u determine who is Nigerian? U must present documentary evidence.. That is my point.. Presenting and expired passport that is invalid is same as present tissue paper in court.. Do u get it now...
grin grin

You see, Tinubu's case is quite unique.. even if anyone loves Tinubu, his case is very tricky to defend.

First, according to the posts here in Nairaland, Tinubu's lawyer was not denying that his client ever held a Guinea passport, he is saying since his passport expired, he is no longer a citizen of that country.

And you are RIGHT by asking where is his renunciation?? grin

Ones citizenship is not solely determined by whether they have a passport or not.. there many Nigerians that do not have a passport. That doesn't mean they are not Nigerians.

Olanipeku knows exactly what he is saying.. He is telling that that passport is invalid which turns to the case from pdp into hear say. just like me here now saying u r a Cameroonian.. So it is word of mouth the onus noe falls on me to prove my accusation.
You might have misunderstood Mr. Olanipekun.. he said because Tinubu's Guinea passport have expired, he is no longer their citizen.
