Not to forget NASCO biscuit hahaha

I know of a bros whose area nickname is "NASCO calendar" and I think this name was gotten from his love for nasco and also a certain calendar from them.

Some still exist , but that 'childhood taste' we have of them, I guess , it's what is missing right now.

ddjay:
Nasco wafers still dey o,infact d company (nasco) is stronger now

yeah! The last time I ate nasco was in in early 90s, and it was an expired one .

f the north cause they killed someone I knew who was posted there to serve, they butchered him like he was a cow because of their barbaric nature, so yes "f the north", it us filled with scums with retarded brains.

north is not a one man's house, is an entity. Everybody can't be the same- change the way you think.

Raymondenyi:
that is totally your business Bro, I have spoken my mind..... that's d exact way I feel....

winilove:

delishpot:
Not seen some? You are still young

I wonder if fishy, speedo okin and Odin were popular all around Naija or were they mostly available in the Western part of the country?
One viscuite that also faded out was EFCO(was competing with cabin) and the Chocolate Cabin can't remember if it was EFCO too.

I still young.

That's the biggest of investment. Only her can empty Edo state 'coffer'. Fear 'woman investment'.

pulsa:
dude am already made, and would soon start investing this year, and I mean what i said, what else do you expect from me when all my life I have never crossed south west?, man don try.

trash! 'f d north' in ur post means what? To justify your 'never-crossed-the-sw'. You are fvcking not made, dude.

pulsa:
am a Yoruba man and if I were to invest in regions it will be southwest 50%,southeast 30%,southsouth 20%, f the north.

fvck it ! Keep it to yourself. Do I need to remind you that with this mindset, you won't even make what to give charity from? Years from now, you'll understand my point.

Francis5:
For some strange reasons, privileged Igbos feel very comfortable either directly or indirectly helping other Nigerians to prosper while leaving their own

Emeka Offor is doing the same thing with his SEOF

Okorocha was doing the same with his Rochas Foundation until he became Gov

In contrast, you hardly find Yoruba or Hausa-Fulani either investing in Igboland or extending charity work to Igboland. On the flip side, this shows Igbos are indeed a rare, superior breed.

But how did Igbos get it so wrong/right in Nigeria?

Regardless, God will continue to bless Igbos anywhere they are

Together with partners, I am putting together a few things I will be doing in Nigeria soon, but ALL will be in South-East (70%) and South-South (30%). That is my vow.

The way the languages you mentioned allowed your people to flourish in their place unhindered, I dont think your people have created or given them that enabling environment or hospitality which commensurates what they have towards your people and their businesses. They're only giving or have given to society that made them.


The last line in your post says it all- you are just the perfect example of igbo man(save for rochas and ofor) .

The worst thing is, you people think Jesus is one of you; but you are just too bad as a people and Christians
.

delishpot:
Seen all except that Tandi drink and yes, I don OLD

I have not seen some too.

Raymondenyi:
you are the only person that have commented reasonably... blacks are cursed, blacks are pigs.... blacks are next to devil.... The only race that have refused to advance on earth...... The only race synonymous, with bestiality, dirts, wickedness, savagery, intellectual myopia...... blacks are indeed a curse to humans a curse to this generation....... I do not expect anything more....

If this election was to be conducted in black American neighbourhood, you see same things.


***I spit on black race***

you have taken it too far.

The Petroleum Products Pricing Regulatory Agency said the Federal Government would be collecting N8 per litre as subsidy on petrol imported by the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation and other marketers.

Alhaji Farouk Ahmed, outgoing Executive Secretary of the Agency, announced this while handing over to Moses Mbaba, the General Manager Administration and Human Resources, on Thursday in Abuja.
Ahmed is among the heads of government agencies that were disengaged and asked to hand over to most senior directors in the office.

He said: “The subsidy as at today came down to minus N8 per litre for PMS.

“What I mean by minus N8 is that government now will collect N8 for every litre imported by NNPC and marketers as against payment to marketers and NNPC.”
Ahmed said at the close of work on February 16, the subsidy on petrol was N13.81k, adding that the landing cost was lower than the selling price by N13.81k.
According to him, it translates to what is called over recovery.

Ahmed said an Over Recovery Account had been opened with the Central Bank of Nigeria on February 3 and would be managed by the Office of the Accountant General of the Federation.

He said currently, about N2.6 billion had been lodged into the account with the December importation by NNPC and the marketers.

Ahmed added: “This is just the beginning because some of products just arrived in December.
“That’s why the subsidy over recovery is low.
“But for those cargo that are loaded in January for example, we want the over recovery to start manifesting.

“Then, by calculation, we will begin to know what the price will be for marketers and NNPC respectively.”
Commenting on the review of template for price modulation in the first quarter, Ahmed said the agency was building data, which it would analyse at the appropriate time.

He said the data would look at the trend and analyse how the market had fared in the last two and half months.

He added that the agency would also check what the over recovery accumulated into before advising the Minister of Petroleum Resources, Dr. Ibe Kachikwu.
He said stakeholders in the sector would meet next week to deliberate on the development, which would form part of the decision on the price going forward.

Ahmed noted that the price modulation review had some challenges but had led to the over recovery witnessed in the sector.

He said: “There are a lot of things and that’s why we are into over recovery because first of all, we looked at the pricing after we reviewed the template.

“The review instilled some efficiency and cost savings and that cost savings translated into reduction of pump price even though it is 50k and N1, but it is an indication that something is working.

“That is the whole essence of modulation.
“Cut cost, be more efficient and let Nigeria enjoy the benefit of that efficiency.”

Ahmed expressed the hope that with over recovery, there might be price reduction on PMS in March after the review of the template.

He called on the staff to support the incoming leadership of the agency and advised his would-be successor to continue with the legacy established by the agency to ensure positive change.

What's the news here?

Blackman, black heart, black everything.


The substance in human brain called "black substance", I think we have enough of it.

SLIDEwaxie:
what is the meaning of "bow to pressure" when the guy already told u he will hold on to policies he thinks it is good and delete the bad ones?

Don't mind these newspapers and their crumbs. He has the executive power to cancel the program and also to make it stand- I don't know whose pressure he has succumbed to right now.
