Celebrities / Re: Mohbad Vomited, Developed Goosebumps After Three Injections – CP by bakol: 8:43pm On Oct 06, 2023
You would have saved yourself of sounding ignoramus if you can simply watch the press briefing by the CP on YouTube. Lazy youths everywhere.

The CP did mention the three Injections the " auxiliary Nurse" gave the dead. These are PCM ( Paracetamol), Tetranus Injection and a very powerful antibiotics that normally could have been used for a very serious infection such a sepsis. The worst part was, the CP said these Injections were given via intravenous.

I guess you can enlighten yourself further.

Y are you dignifying all these babies who lack basic history of politics in Nigeria?

Hence, they speak and argue mostly out of ignorance.

Even Adams Oshiomole was in Labour Party prior to 2007 election. LP formed an alliance with AC then, for Oshiomole to contest under AC Governorship ticket in Edo State.

The same way some of you guys who lack historic experience are supporting the coup in Niger was the same way some were happy that Lauren Gbagbo then was captured by the Ivorian Army from his bunker and power was handed over to Alexander Qoutara....


Today, the same man has spent over 10 years in power....same with the late Robert Mugabe who took over Zimbabwe via a coup detat in 1980.

Coup detat is evil. Citizens shoukd be allowed to change their leaders.

SpatialKing:
Alassane
Ouattara, 81, president of Ivory Coast, has been in power since 2010. Under him, the country's constitution was amended, which allowed him to still remain in power beyond the time allowed by the Ivorian constitution.

This West African leader is also critical of the putschists in Niger and in support of military intervention to return Niger to a constitutional order.

Very well said. Some are never grateful for the little they have.

Zxcvbnmghtr:


How can I be? I am always contented with what I have. I have observed over the years and have discovered that people just love complaining in this country.

You will come across people who are able to afford good shelter, good cloths, good car, good education, good health care and so much more still complaining as if nothing good is going on in their lives.

The level of ingratitude by Nigerians is unspeakable. It is a norm to always complain no matter what.

As for me, am grateful and happy. Cheers no hard feelings.

Politics / Re: Sen. David Umahi Resigns From National Assembly To Take Up Ministerial Job. by bakol: 8:45am On Jul 28, 2023
Some of you are babies in politics and perpetual wailers? How is this an act of lawlessness? Is this the first time an elected lawmaker is appointed a Federal Minister in Nigeria?

The immediate past Minister of Education for State named Nwajuba was in the house of reps before PMB appointed him a minister.

Alhaji Atiku Abubakar was elected governor of Adamawa in 1999 before OBJ picked him as VP.

What the law says is for him to resign which he has allegedly done now.



Racoon:
After using fraudulent backyard means and power of incumbency to win the senate seat, Dave Umahi will now create a electoral lacuna by vacating the senate to take up ministerial appointment?

How can you be sworn in as a senator and then go to take up a FG ministerial appointment? What is wrong with this country sef? This lawlessness have to stop.

Politics / Re: Tinubu To Tax Market Men And Women by bakol: 8:59am On Jul 05, 2023
Sometimes , I feel this platform is made up of majorly secondary school children. There is a high level of lack of understanding being displayed here on public issues.

First, VAT is in an Indirect Tax under the purview of the FG. It is remitted to the purse of the federation account via the FIRS. Hence, your statement as to the fact that the FG does not have the business of collecting VAT from the informal sector is out of sheer ignorance.

Second, Govt is not taxing the market people and other informal sector, rather the VAT is payable by the consumers and not the market men/women. When you buy a tuber of Yam from Shoprite, the amount u pay is inclusive of VAT. SHOPRITE only has the duty of remitting that 7.5% VAT u paid to FG. Same thing is being projected here for the informal sector.

Third, the informal sector is part of the TAX NET of any government all over the world. In the case of Nigeria, some of them if not the majority of the Informal sector are outside the TAX NET because of lack of data. Government is now trying to bridge that GAP and some of you guys are just displaying ignorance on the issue.

To correct the wrong Information u guys are spinning, the market men and women are not the ones to pay the VAT. It is the consumers who patronise them that will pay it just the way you pay it happily at the shopping malls. The market men and women are to remit such to govt.

Everything should not be viewed from parochia angle.

Business / Re: CBN announces unification of FX windows, stops Naira4Dollar scheme by bakol: 11:54pm On Jun 14, 2023
In a simple language, what that means is that government has Unified the Fx rate as opposed to the fraudulent multiple exchange rates we had before where CBN official rate was around N550 at a time and the black market rate was around N750. Unfortunately, the CBN rate was highly not assesible to the ordinary man thereby forcing everyone to patronise the Black market rates that the market forces has no control over. That encouraged racketeering among the BDC operators and some officials.

Now, the forces of DD and SS will determine the movement of the Naira to USD. For a start, the CBN has pegged 1USD to N750. Now, the power has been taken away from the few BDC operators who were arbitrarily determining the rates.

Politics / Re: Details Of The Student Loan Bill Signed By President Tinubu by bakol: 9:02pm On Jun 12, 2023
Please, where did you study your own Accounting?

I will assume you are just a secondary school student who has just been Introduced to Financial Accounting as a subject.

A student loan given to acquire a life long Asset ( Academic Certificate) which will provide for you future economic benefits you referred to as a burden?

Your understanding of the concept of " liability" is highly pedestrian and showed you lacked basic understanding of financing.

Please , go and pick up your Etuk Udoh or Omuya elementary Accounting text books again and learn.
Hamachi:

Student loans are a financial burden which does not quite make sense on a pure accounting basis. So, you have signed up for a loan (a liability, surrender of your future earnings) and you have nothing to show for it. On the other hand, when you take a loan on a house (a mortgage), you have a liability (a mortgage) and an asset (a house), so when things get tough, you can sell the asset to cover that liability. And in a worst case scenario, you simply file for bankruptcy and walk away from it - with a beaten up credit score, but you recover fully in about 7 years (in US, bankruptcy is removed within 7 years from the person's credit profile). Easy. Simple. Elegant.

Now, we have a student loan. You take a loan and you spend money. You gain nothing tangible - no assets. You have an expectation of future earnings, but it's not a guarantee. However, once you are out of school, loan is due - regardless of whether or not you have means to pay for it, such as a job. Now, when things get very tough - let's say you need to pay rent and you need to eat and you would like to get a family - but the student loan is still there, and it's not going away. You can't discharge it in a simple bankruptcy. You can't make it go away in an easy way - it's a forever burden.


Summary

When we reach the point where politicians are running for office on a platform of, “free college for everyone,” you know that we have gone past the tipping point. “Free” college is just going to throw kerosene on this fire.

We are seeing some cracks around the edges, e.g. coding bootcamps and startup apprenticeships like Praxis, but what is needed is a better educated consumer.

PS

I saw a question on career section this afternoon. “Should I go to school X or school Y? (Money is an object, but I might get some financial aid at school Y.)”

School Y’s cost of attendance is more than twice that of school X. No thought of can I afford either one of these schools? No thought of preparing a financial analysis. We have a generation of irresponsible morons whose parents are mentally absent. That’s why we have a financial aid crisis.

💭Leadership is not about seeking personal glory, instead its about taking responsibility for the people you are in charge of.

🎯Some key takeaways:

✔️Responsible leaders take accountability for their actions. Instead of blaming others, they identify the problem and try to fix it.

✔️Therefore, to become responsible leaders professionals must remember to take accountability for actions and stop blaming others for their mistakes.

✔️One of the foremost qualities in a successful employee or leader is a willingness to accept Responsibility for one's actions and behavior, good or bad.

✔️Taking Responsibility means making decisions, taking action, setting high standards, learning from our mistakes and always doing what we say.

✔️Lastly, leadership is about setting an example. Let see his grandchildren, relatives & family members participate in these students loan

Which of the UK that increased minimum wage?

Junior Doctors, Nurses, Teachers, and Railway workers in the UK all have been going on strike since last year because of wage issue and government has not been responding to their demands.

Some Nigerians like to lament unnecessarily.

During the winter, electricity bill went as high as over 200% increase from what it used to be. It is now left for you to manage the usage of the energy based on your financial ability.

Regular electricity doesn't come cheap anywhere.

Some of you guys lack appropriate education on constitional issues.


Was the case of David Lyon of Balyesa not a pre-election matter?

Was the case of Zamfara APC governor in 2019 not a pre election matter- infact, that case too was on nomination and cancellation of the primary of APC that produced the governor?

The fact is, once Appealed, the case will be decided by the Supreme Court finally.

Main while, y are u guys clamouring for LP to be sworn in Abia even after the court judgement? Whereas, you guys are lamenting that APC should not be sworn in at the centre until Tribunal finishes the petitions. Is this not a total act of hypocrisy on you guys part.?

Ofunaofu:
Not only that the court lacks jurisdiction.

This is a pre-election matter and according to section 285 of the constitution, all pre-election matter must be filed within 14 days of the event.
This case was filed on the 11th day of May, 2023. Alex Otti emerged as the gubernatorial candidate of labour party for Abia State during the primaries held in June 2022

From a mere look, the case is status bared but the judge who is notorious in bribe taking, must have collected money to give this kangaroo judgement having been previously suspended by the NJC in 2016

With all due respect, equip yourself with knowledge on revenue sharing formular between the FG and the Federating States. The issue of population as one of the criteria for revenue sharing has since been laid to rest.

You may want to go through the Federal Allocations to Lagos State as the second most populous state in Nigeria ( According to 2006 census figure) compared to that of Rivers State and see for yourself if population has any daring effect on the amount given.

When, Lagos under Tinubu created additional 20 Local governments , it was not officially recognised by the FG. Unfortunately, the more your local governments, the more allocation you get monthly from FG with regard to Local Govt allocation. See Kano with 44 lgas.

It is this misinformation of Census as a criterion for revenue sharing that always lead to hyping of census figures in Nigeria. We need to stop such misleading information.

I don't think they would want SE SS and all non Yorubas to be counted for census or ever pay tax/levies again in Lagos since they don't count.

The supporters of the LP candidate in this election are naturally that of PDP. Check the results of Jimi Agbaje PDP vs Sanwoolu, Jimi Agbaje PDP vs Ambode, Dosunmu PDP vs Fashola etc...the trends are almost the same.

Moreover, the LP guy was also a PDP person.
