PoliticsRe: 2023 FAAC Allocation For Nigerian States - Before & After Fuel Subsidy Removal by Baselm: 8:26am On Mar 20, 2024
mrvitalis:
Lol after subsidy removal? Lmaooo APC propaganda

We are paying more subsidy now than we have ever paid... And we are also paying more for petrol now than we have ever paid

Divide those allocation by the exchange rate the u know states are getting far less

For the unfortunate people quoting me to talk rubbish here it is

Nigeria sells crude and earns in dollars that the bulk of revenue

This dollar was sold at official rate to Cbn thats 450 per dollar

Now naira has devalued official rate is 1500 which is over 3 times the previous rate.. Plus we supposedly stopped playing over 1 trillion per month in subsidy

So the revenue should be 3 to 4 times the figures before may 29ths if we actually removed subsidy

It's not rocket science
Are you not aware that they have been borrowing to pay for fuel subsidies. The only savings from subsidy removal is that they stopped borrowing and owing NNPC. There is no money being saved anywhere from subsidy removal.

mrvitalis:
Yes absolutely most expenses are in dollars
I disagree, almost all their recurrent expenditures are salaries and are in Naira, most of their capital projects too are Roads and other form of constructions which should be at least 60% Naira. The USD component of their expenditures will be procurements (that cannot be sourced locally), foreign loan debt servicing and maybe estacodes.
PoliticsRe: Soldiers Tricked Us Into A Hall Then Opened Fire, Okuama Residents Speak by Baselm: 7:12am On Mar 20, 2024
This sounds like a cooked up story. No timeline to tell if it was before or after the killing of the soldiers.
If it was after, it only makes sense the soldiers demanded chiefs to follow them to ensure they don't get ambushed at the water front like they were ambushed and killed earlier and the refusal is a matter of life and death for them.

BusinessRe: Access Bank Funded N50B Contract Awarded To Wigwe's Wife By Abia Government by Baselm: 3:40pm On Mar 07, 2024
TINTINABULATION:
There is nothing so special here until we are privy to the Memorandum of Understanding between Abia State Government & Cranburg Construction. That is the document that will list all the roads to be constructed with the money. There is no law forbidding a private organization, such as Cranburg to approach its bankers for facility to execute a contract. If Access Bank finds her customer, Cranburg Construction credit worthy, then public opinion holds no sway
Conflict of Interest on the Governor, and the Wigwes, Nohuh

PoliticsRe: Nigeria Must Recruit Selfless, Transformational Leaders – Obasanjo by Baselm: 7:32am On Mar 06, 2024
That OOPL where the event is holding is a product of greed while you were president. Fayose revealed how all the governors were all made to donate.
There are still records of how you selfishly wanted to amend the constitution to remove term limits, bribing legislators in the process, so you can be president forever.
If you have another life, practice what you preach

PoliticsRe: N37 Billion Probe: Ex-Minister, Sadiya Umar-Farouq Gets EFCC’s 72-hour Ultimatum by Baselm: 3:32pm On Jan 05, 2024
I've always said this woman and the removed minister of power Saleh will bring the most embarrassment to the Buhari administration after they leave. NPOWER payments became chaotic the moment it moved to her ministry, also the school feeding program.

If not that the Saleh guy was removed, it would have been worse too.

Emefiele ended up being the biggest villain though.

PoliticsRe: Alarm Bells Ring As Nigeria’s Refineries Collapse By 92% by Baselm: 11:10pm On Dec 03, 2023
WhisperedNoise:
Buhari was a disaster. The man commissioned a non working refinery. In a country with PhDs and MsC holders, he took us all for fools


Tinubu is disaster Pro Max Refuel. He is determined to "out-foolish" his master.
How can Buhari be the fall guy? There were presidents when the refineries were working and generating money and they refused to carry out necessary TAM and rehabilitation. Buhari's administration started the rehabilitation of the dead refineries.

As for Dangote refinery, it will work when it works.
EducationRe: Nigerian Law School Places 5-Year Ban On Datti Ahmed’s Baze University by Baselm: 7:37am On Nov 25, 2023

Because he called Tinubu a drug baron on national television.
Even if it is, as the saying goes; "He who comes to equity must come with clean hands", another one says, " those who live in glass houses don't throw stones".

Isn't BAZE the same university Dino Melaye and other politicians get their law degrees from? Do they ever attend classes except for PR pictures?
PoliticsRe: Charly Boy: How Can Tinubu Be 71 When He Was Arrested In 1960 In Chicago by Baselm: 9:57pm On Sep 28, 2023
Chinjo2:
Tinubu claims to be 71 while his daughter is 62 that means Tinubu gave birth to her while he was 9 years old. This explains why what charlie boy said about Tinubu's age could be the truth.
Nigerians should learn to stand by the truth no matter who is involved.
Recently Joe biden son was accused of involving in drugs and fiream. Also, Donald Trump has been accused of several crimes bothering on fraud and bribery.
That is how you know a country that is ready to move forward.
If only Tinubu had sat down jejely after rulling Lagos for 8 years and making himself the king maker all these cases wouldn't have come up.
His quest for power has now caused him this irreparable damage.
I just hope he doesn't slump one day because Atiku is really going all out for him.
Is this the Folashade Tinubu that you claim in 62 years old?

PoliticsRe: Seeking For Investors Abroad Waste Of Time, Obi Tells FG by Baselm: 8:23pm On Sep 26, 2023
From Investors, bees and honey analogy to Bangladesh to deputy governor and woman who never queues. I always find PO's inability to maintain a theme and be coherent contrasting to the hype about him.

I thought Bees produce honey, not that bees go chasing about honey as he is trying to imply. Also, Macron is not an investor who is suddenly interested in Bangladesh because of 10 airbuses. Macron is a president not an investor.

Anyways, his audience always seem to make a sense out of his speeches, so it is good.
PoliticsRe: Fear In NNPC As Dangote Struggles To Get Approval To Operate Refinery by Baselm: 6:44am On Sep 23, 2023
The PIA does not provide NNPC the powers to be regulators in the oil and gas industry. NUPRC and NMDPRA are the regulators. Before PIA DPR, NCDMB are some of the regulators. NNPC does not have the power to grant License to Operate to Dangote Refinery.

This publication is a whole lot of balderdash.

It could be you revealing your nature because you are now a superior to your friend. It's not a coincidence you never considered him a bad friend all these while till now. Do some introspection.

PoliticsRe: Oba Of Benin Visits President Tinubu (Photos And Videos) by Baselm: 7:13pm On Jul 14, 2023
Tinubu was mocked throughout Benin when he visited this Oba during the election campaigns. They said he didn't pronounce the name or title of the Oba well.

The height of Tinubu mockery was in Benin City throughout the elections, some people literally greet each other shouting "Balablu" or singing "Baba wey no well".It was also visible in the result of the election as he was soundly beaten in Benin city.

This life is really a paradox.

My greatest lesson from the election is to never be distracted by what people say, just keep working hard for your goals.

CultureRe: Why We Cancelled Yoruba Cultural Ceremony, Isese Festival – Emir Of Ilorin by Baselm: 9:15am On Jul 09, 2023
The intolerance is not only against Isese, even way back in 2004 when Evang. Reinhard Bonke was to hold a 4-day crusade at the Kwara state Stadium, they vehemently protested even to the point of rioting until the crusade was moved to the outskirt of Ilorin in Budo-Efo around Ganmo.

I remember the case of another foreign pastor before or after Bonke, he wasn't allowed to use the stadium too, I think he was later moved to World Assembly ground at Offa Garage.

Ilorin Muslims are very intolerant and they use the Muslim political leaders and the Monarch's office to perpetrate their acts. Even in the mission schools which the state government took, the state ministries and agencies. These are some of the reasons why Hijab in state mission schools became an issue some years ago.

They dole what they can't take a fraction of on others. You will not believe the state is almost a 50/50 Christian-Muslim state with the way they take every political slot, appointments, and head almost every state office even to the schools.
