But his company Heyden Energy is still making $$ from
Fuel imports and subsidy 🤷🏿‍♂️😂😂

Don’t come to uk as a student if u dont have financial support. No work visa. Stay at home. That’s all i av to say. Be doing soyinka

Wetin I go take UK student visa do?

Brenbentondiaz:


Leave these people to be fooling themselves. They think everyone is as braindead as they're. People that voted Tofa over Abiola. Their voting oattern is "vote the most popular candidate that can contest power against the candidate Yorubas are supporting". They're not smart at all (though they fool themselves that they are).

STFU. You guys have memorized false history. Abiola won in Anambra even though he ran a muslim muslim ticket. Tofa was also a good candidate who had a balanced ticket -Sylvester Ugo a Christian was his running mate.
OBJ/ATiku. A balanced ticket got 95% from SE even though Ojukwu was on the ballot.
Yar’dua/GEJ a balanced ticket got 95% from SE even though GMB had selected Okadigbo as VP. Igbos voted for a better ticket against their kinsmen.

You guys voted for GMB because he selected Osibabjo.. then you guys are blaming GMB without taking accountability for plunging Naija into this mess.

247man:


Lol u definitely don’t know what u are talking about

You have no idea how things work. You need to find an EU employer who would employ and cover ur health insurance for you to be considred for work visa. Naija agents go dey lie to una say job full everwhere like u be Soyinka or Jay Jay Okocha.

BlueRayDick:
Some of u just lack comprehension and u are too proud to ask more knowledgeable people to break it down for u before u start running propaganda with what u don't understand . How did what u quoted as Peter Obi's comment on duty charges correlate with the misleading topic of this thread ?

For educational purposes , let me break it down for u.

When a manufacturer for example wants to import raw materials for production of goods and services ; they open Form M at the prevailing market rate at that time; leats say N1500/1$ . When the raw material gets to the country , the manufacturer will be required to pay customs duties in naira to Nigeria Customs. Now that's where the problem is cos the federal government through customs has increased the rate of customs duties several times arbitrarily in the last few months.

It's more like u already made provision for customs duties to be paid at N900/1$ and by the time ur cargo is in Nigeria ; FG thru customs has already jacked it up to N1050/1$. The manufacturer will have no other choice than to pay the duties at that rate , but he will pass that incremental cost down to me and u who are the final consumer of the product that eventually comes out of the factory .

That is why price of locally made goods keep increasing .

It's myopic to think every "importer" imports foreign made goods to sell. For ur information, almost all manufacturers import raw materials to use in the manufacture of their product and that's why Peter Obi is advising the government to tone down on the continued increase in dollar rate for customs duties or else prices of goods will keep going up .

Tankio. U dey mind them. This blind followership has really exposed how thick-skulled millions of Naiia folks are. Fuel import gulps 70% of our FX.. so these custom incessant channges will catch them.
Naija Banks and Financial services use a lot software/banking tools all billed in $£€… they are going to be affected.

Heavy and Industriwl goods like Construction equipment, trains, trucks/lorry, transformer, MRI/CT scan machines will be affected.

Pharmaceuticals/drugs/chemicals for manufacturing will be affected. Everything is politics to these minioms🤷🏿‍♂️🤷🏿‍♂️🤦🏿‍♂️

Pemisire113:
Hey family, am glad to be here, am a 28 yrs old Nigerian lady with a great determination spirit. I couldn't attend a university to study a nursing degree which is my dream career but I attended a college of health with struggles due to financial incapability. I was raised by a mum who lost her husband at early stage. We are four am the third.

When I completed my secondary school i started working in a hospital as an hospital aid, I was able to raised some cash I proceeded to a college of health where i did a three years course and i graduated with flying colours.

I immediately moved to Lagos and start working in a hospital. I was able to raise some money that was in 2020. I did my pass port. I went online, I met some friends and i applied for a Dubai visa with the intention of getting there to do some care course, so I can work in care homes or hospital.

I got the visa. I traveled, i did the course i was able to get a caregiver job luckily for me with 2000 dhm salary. I was happy thinking my dream is gradually coming through i would able to save money, proceed with my nursing degree and take care of my mum, unfortunately for me, the issues of Nigerian cultists came up in UAE. They stopped all documentation for Nigerians, that was when the ban started. I waited a bit but nothing changed i had no choice than to come back to Nigeria in 2020. I quickly landed in Lagos and started applying to hospital all over again, i got a job again, salary was way below the offers i got in UAE, since then till now, i was able to raise 2M.

Now my people please advice me, which country can this amount take me to with flight tickets etc.

A country I can be able to work and may be further to earn a degree later.

Pls Advice me 🥺

Thank you sir /thank u ma

Be careful here ooh.. too many people would like to steal that ur meagre 2m here in the name of giving u faster and easier way/connect

Hard choice. Go back to uni in Naija and get a BSC in Nursing.. this will open a lot of opportunities for you-domestic and intl.

Soft choice. Keeping working in Naija to save more moneu. N2m now is not enough to buy flight

Aizenosa:
Advice get a work visa, student visa is limiting and funding living and educational expenses is not for the faint hearted and sometimes it doesn't tally up. The only good part is that you get a degree.

Which kain work visa… you be Soyinka or Stanley Nwabili with special skills? If not, student visa is ur easiest to get visa approved.

PortHarcourtcit:
Mr ITK, you may be the next person to be arrested because you and abure really plundered LP and the innocent Nigerians who thought that you are there messiah...

Go and buy food abd groceries from supermarkets first.. dem no charge you BAT price not PO ITK price

These guys were sharing the nations wealth amongst themselves

Even ordinary Job for a major parastatal common man no see

Imagine waiving five years taxes for which company cos most of the companies me I don work with and know of dey pay heavy taxes yearly🤔

Same guys got AMCON bailout. They ran their companies aground, took bank loans and failed to pay back… AMCON acquired their companies for kobo on yjr naira… now we Nigerians are saddled with their debts .

WeddingParol:
From Jonathan to Buhari and Balablue are all clueless set of people.

It is an aberration to call any of them a leader

Same politically-connected folks got import waivers, dollar allocation, FX at official rate… oil lifting contracts, and subsidy payments… same folks got tax waivers

anonymous1759:



You’re right Nigerian government subsidizes nothing yet , we’re complaining fuel prices is almost #700, university students are complaining that school fees is 100+ from 21k
At some point Nigerian institutions pay 10k per session In the university and you complain nothing is subsidized while some private universities pay 300k -400k.

At some point a bag of cement was sold #800 now is 7k-8k if you built your house in that era government made it possible for you .

Nigeria have some terrible people, the worst are the educated ones with bitterness hidden underneath them , they spread falsehood.
At this point Nigerians will believe They was subsidy before.

You’re the most self-destructive follower .. a minion who believes that his master is OK to enslave him?
How are we subsidizing oil produced in our backyard ? because govts from Abacha and GMB as NPF felt that it was more lucrative to export crude oil for refining and then import for consumption. From Abacha to BAT, govts have spent $30-$40bn in trying to fix those refineries. All contracts awarded to their cronies.
Naija is the only country without public transport that is subsidized even though 95% of services, goods and people are moved by rd and fuel.

Talk about education, what is subsidized? Just Ghana has a working system for poor and bright students going into university.
Ghana has national insurance scheme that provides health coverage to its citizens
The worst form of Nigerians are the most insular folks who havent had their passports stamped SOA/SOD

badoh:

And Mainstream Energy solution is owned by ordinary Nigerian abi?

For where .. it’s owned by Col Sani Bello rtd…one of the richest Nigerians ever.. but he’s very private. He was the biggest Naija investor in MTN. Pascal Edozie convinced him to write a big cheque. He was a former governor of Kano State. he was Aguiyi Ironsi’s ADC .Tinubu’s right hand man. He also owns Penstock Nig ltd

Babangidapikin:
So you are saying the three preferred bidders didn't meet the criteria abi you just wasted their time and gave it to whom you want. If they sue us now, it's Nigeria money you would use to compensate them ...

U dey mind them.. and they’ll sue

PureFace1:


The wealthy get it by hook or crook all over the world.

You want to use 24/7 power and want the government to keep subsidizing power

The remaining 75% is part of the debt Nigeria have to repay in the future plus the money for subsidizing power while revenue from Crude Oil that's Nigeria cash cow decrease. If you have sense you will know that it is just a matter of time before it dry up when debts and subsidy in power, fuel , education etc piled up.

If you have sense, you would know that our money was used to build that project that iis 25% and we also guarantee the loan 100%. What do we get in return nothing. Is there like soveriegn trust fund where our 25% of profits would be paid into? But cronies/investors will take 100%. Just like Dangote Refinery where we invested like $4bn with no ROI and also sold him FX at discounted official rate. Naija govt distributes pains and losses to masses … but passes on profits and ownership to buddies and crony capitalists .

What does Naija govt subsidize for poor Nigerians? Nothing

ijustdey:




https://www.thecable.ng/tinubu-well-raise-10bn-to-stabilise-naira-boost-fx-liquidity/amp

So they’ll borrow another $10bn to stabilize Naija. They had borrowed $3bn in Jan to stabilize .. and Naira has jumped. 200% .. from N650 to N2k. Our purchasing power has been eroded by 200% ..our net worth reduced by 200%? So what is the gain of floating Naira when we’re borrowing $13bn in his 8th month out 48 months to stabilize the naira..

Bankowner:
Just curious.

Who owns Penstock Limited?

Why was Mainstream Energy Solutions Limited, the initial bidder, bypassed?

A biz front owned by rich oligarchs like Otedola, Elumelu, Dangote, Wale Tinubi etc with politrickians .. normal
Normal Naija runs of fattening the ultra wealthy… while starving the poor. FG provided 25% loan and guarantees the loan 100%… and tomorrow, they’ll tell you that to subsidize power for the masses is bankrupting the govt

Nope. They are troublemakers. Wash your hands and fee off their case like Pontius Pilate and run. They are baby tigers and will feast on you when the time comes.

LegendHero:


Lol Awolowo contested twice but they went ahead to vote Azikiwe and Shagari twice in ‘79 and ‘83.

Abi with all the success of Awolowo, how does a people that love voting the right people not even give Awo 5-10% of their votes?

I can mention 10 things Awo did off hand, I’m sure one will need to go back to read a whole encyclopedia to remember 2 things Azikiwe did for the Ibo people as premier.

Did Awolowo win that election? Nope. Shagatri/Ekwueme was a nationalist team with competent team. Awo came into that election..bruised and battered by his fights and rivalry with Akintola faction of Action Group. His incarceration and trials during those times had decimated some of his political power and followership. Yes, Igbos voted for a better candidate.

Bolt is a slave work and they are heartless.
Bolt is the most useless platform in the world.
This morning I got suspended after one stupid passenger that gave me wrong direction reported my account.

Imagine driving for 15-20 minutes, to pick this evil passenger and he cancelled your order because of impatience.

And not done still
Reported your account and got your account suspended.

If not for the impractical government we have.
How can?
Person go to school,
Graduate and start doing taxi or bolt...
I now have peace of mind.
It is well.

You already have a lot of bad attitude and horrible customer service… This seems like not one of your encounters with riders.

You can go learn another trade/job/skill

yolkman20:
It's almost 2yrs we started the journey. I loved her on sight and I decided no matter what her past is, I'm ending up with this girl. I loved he wholeheartedly and things were even green when we got deep.

Fast forward to few weeks back, told her I'd love to meet met parents and her facial reaction was shocking, although she agreed and I made the call. The mum is supposed to get back to me and the next thing is, she started misbehaving. She changed totally that I can't even see her, sex her nor have this intimacy again.

Being a smart dude, I was able to get her and I started challenging her, last last, she opened up n begged never to go bk into it. She cried her ass off and swear with lot of things she'd never go back to him. To my surprise, it was when the love started boosting. She'd comment on his posts on fb n IG and if I complaints, na gbege...

Now, she has told her parent it's him she wants, unfortunately, she's from a strong Muslim home n dude is a xtain. The fam went against it and boom, the worst happened. Now! She's going against her parent's will cos they still see, talk and they've even nack

After so much pressure, she promised to come back only that she needs time. She said she'd diverted the whole love an she needs time to get it back. Fine, we talk, n have a good time, but she won't stop seeing him, posting him on status and bloc me from seeing it and sort....

I love this girl an she's my everything. I still decide to hold on after everything. But now, I'm getting tired and weak because it's obvious she's more to him than me even when she knows it can't work....

I need help on what to do....

Go buy paracetamol to help cure your malaria love 😂😂

Aboki wey de my gate earn over 40K
What does anyone do to be earning 35K ?

Maybe if you work in Anambra where the state government refuse to pay minimum wage sha, all thanks to legacy of the Pandora criminal Peter Obi.

So obi left office 10-12 yrs ago and instructed his successors govs Obiano and Soludo .. no to pay minimum way.. Obi na bad king like king of Lagos BAT

my question is genuine , my rent is part of the proof of fund and it costs $23k ,
The school said if I have accommodation then it will be subtracted and to show proof of accommodation I need rent receipt or house lease .
So I don’t mean I need an apartment at the moment . I need rent receipt or lease .
Thanks

Still not making sense. Ur math aint mathing. Landlords need ID/Visa pavg, School ID/ SSN to lease out their apartments

1stGenAmerican:


How will a rent receipt issued in someone else’s name be used for your I-20? Any of us that may know someone must be able to explain to the person named on the receipt how it’ll be used.

Wonder oo🤷🏿‍♂️

So cement went from
7k to 15k 115% in a month.. and u increased you staff salary by 50% lol

She looks 56.. bad lifestyle ??

Imagine if GEJ had done this?
Can BAT shutdown OANDO owned by Tinubus for collecting billions in $$ and selling fuel at prevailing market prices?
Can he shutdown Heyden Energy owned Gov Dapo Abiodun for collecting $$$ bn in subsidy and selling fuel at prevailing market prices??

Jeans601:


But needed an offshore account to hide money in his daughter name.

The joke is on you people who always try to paint obi a saint.

He spent over 700 million to prosecute presidential petition in court......how is he different

At least he a millionaire in $£€ before becoming a Politrickian. He was Chairman of a bank and one of its largest shareholders before he ventured into politics. So he had offshore account before he became a politrickian.

Now that your masters are in power, can they fix the country abeg??🙏🏿🤷🏿‍♂️

smokinloud:
You can't remove subsidy from everything and not expect hardship. If it were other candidates, we would experience same hardship. Unless, subsidy is re-introduce in the system. Nigeria is not ready for this reformation.

Just because you failed JAMB doesnt mean that everyone would fail it. Lol

Samtob90:

Hoarding obstructs free market and a crime against humanity. It is the responsibilty of government to deal with it.
Since you think government does not have right, you have no moral to blame government on hardship

Comprehension is your problem. No hoarding here. They changed their prices because $ prices keep going up everyday. Customs keep changing $$ value of imported goods everyday. Supermarkets sell 80% of imported products.
