b4 d APC warriors will settle and start defending nonsense, pls have it in mind DAT PDP wasn't d best option o.
But,
1: how did PDP manage to give us light (2 weeks uninterrupted under Barth nnaji) under Presidio GEJ. I believe it was APC DAT fought DAT man. cos dey like trouble.

2: why would APC under Oga buhari and his okon, fashola, on assumption of office increased d tariff of electricity without providing steady supply to justify it.

3: I have always told people DAT APC is an expensive govt and fashola proved it to be so. u r a minster in-charge of road, Oga, can't u declare state of emergency on our highways and get cracking instead of talking about toll-gates.

Provide first b4 tasking..... common sense.
D devil (PDP) u know is beta Dan d angel( saints APC) u don't know. APC dey Bleep up.

My brother, God bless you. I want to start a #BRING BACK BARTH NNAJI campaign. He is the only minister I know that gave us uninterrupted power supply while serving. I won't throw shades. I just want an effective person working not some elitist lawyer who has no care about the effect of his 'Tax them all rules' on the masses.

#BRING BACK BARTH NNAJI

Let's stop celebrating these people. The moment they add value to human lives and start working for the masses should be the only time they should be newsworthy.

I'm amazed how we are all blaming Buhari, Fashola, Jonathan even Lord Lugard. While I do not deny that a percentage of blame rests upon them and the structureless institutions, have we even thought to blame OURSELVES?

We elected them to power, they live amongst us (from the disco managers to the elected officials) ,we are related to them, they are protected by armed men who are related to us and who suffer the same pain. They still drive on our streets (whether in a convoy or not) yet, what do we do. We never ask them questions, accosst them to know where the sudden source of wealth came from, we never demand wat we voted thhem in power for. Instead, we are blinded by religious and ethnic and tribal divisions.
Will your boss remember you're a Muslim or Christian or Ibo or yoruba or Hausa if you repeatedly fail to do your work and are unproductive ? Yet, we push these old excuses forward to defend looters and sappers of the destiny of our nation and the inheritance of our children.

No one tribe has suffered the brunt of corruption. We have ALL suffered it.
Still we do not learn. We only become gladiators in social media spaces, fighting each other, wasting away energy on the wrong opponents.
Once again I'm surprised we haven't looked inwards, the so called leaders are a little percentage of the followers. Surely, THEY cannot be the problem. WE ARE. The docile, long suffering, priority misplaced, easily swayed, painlessly influenced, tribally separated and cowardice followers.

YOU AND ME are to blame. Cos we do not think and know that the people in places of authority (note, not just power) are OBLIGATED to account to us.

My thoughts exactly. Don’t put the cart before the horse.

Wow, this is the first time I'm hearing that someone actually got paid from that kind of insurance policy. How long did it take for the company to release the money?

Took about a month.

dominique:
He did a comprehensive insurance that's why he got paid. The one the op is talking about is a third-party insurance the government mandates every car owner to get. The money goes directly to the government's pocket and the car owner doesn't benefit from it in anyway. I'm yet to see anyone that has benefited from it.

It doesn't go directly to the government's pocket. It's insurance in case you hit another car. The problem is most people are ignorant of the fact that they can make claims with 3rd party insurance. Last year, a company's vehicle on 3rd Party insurance hit a Range @ Lekki Junction. After much grammar, I persuaded them to take advantage of the 5k 3rd party insurance. The Range was compensated up to about 85k cos d fender and tyre was off.

A divorcee also planning marriage after only 5 weeks meeting online?
I wonder why his marriage failed and if he is actually divorced!!!

Good point

A divorcee rushing into marriage is to be feared. He should even be begging you. He has THREE teenagers!!!!!! That means your initial love love no go long 'cos you will start dealing with issues from the get go. Better excape for your life and thank God for the lie barrier. You never enter the relationship, issues don dey pile up.

Lexusgs430:
You meet him 5 weeks ago(online) and planning marriage, with someone you have not seen physically?

I tire oooo, fast lane love, better watch yourself. You could be in lust. Have you also considered that he could also be unforgiving and a tad inconsiderate man? To have begged for so long and he hasn't yielded and he is also 'in this hot love' with you. You're in lust darling, don't let your desperation and eagerness to exit the single club turn you to a divorcee too. By the way, what's the difference between 32 and 35? Its in the same class.

Wow, you're a courageous man. Few people have the patience to start from scratch. Withh dogged determination and focused planning, you will succeed. Keep it up. God bless your effort. Just remember that you can make it without cheating anyone & be generous to those that deserve and do not deserve it.

By all means, go ahead. If you have evidence and can get a good copyright lawyer, who knows, you might be compensated. Make sure you have evidence though.

Analysis from uneducated people.
So, because naira gained 60 naira, you have the courage to dance around ??

The oil sale is only source of Nigeria income, what happens when the top dogs like Saudi Arabia and Iran floods the market with excessive oil ?? and they also sells way cheaper.

This your jubilation will turn to sorrow soon.
Let's watch and see.
Next month, $1 will exchange for 500 naira.

Doomsday Predictor, modern day Nostradamus. Clap for yourself.
While I admit that the economy is biting now, it will get better as long as we keep looking inwards and stronger policies are put in place.m our jubilation will not turn to sorrow 'cos we are fighting for the economy our. Children will inherit. Just because you want to call Buhari a failure doesn't mean you should wish this country be damned. There are other people living here asides Buhari... and mind you, there's no fear even if it rises to 500, more people will start looking inwards and by God's grace, the heat of the dollar will not only touch you too but burn you enough that you dump everything foreign and every negative language to push for progressive policies and a better Nigeria.
Think before you talk.

Thank you for the tips. Can you please drop a link to an app for oil change alerts?

plaetton:
What exactly is this " our way of life" that you are referring to?

And when did it become our way of life?

And where is your diaspora? Ibadan?
Get serious.
If you want to be the EZE, enter a bus to your village.

You insult the sensibilities of both Igbos and host communities with these ego- inspired, vainglorious display of arrogance and ignorance.

This EZE ndigbo nonsense is an embarrassment to Igbos.

I am glad they are being appropriately reprimanded for this juvenile nonsense.

Bros, whenever you want, I owe you two bottles of whatever premium drink you desire. An absolute shame a group of people will embarrass themselves and others without giving their action a thought.

imade is a Bini name. stop stealing our names.

Stop acting ignorant. His mum's name is Imade. One of the most beautiful,graceful and amazing women that ever lived. Her memory lives on.

snthesis:
unfortunately, this isnt about chris and anita. its an attack on Christians and the Family. What better way to sabotage the sanctity of marriage than the public dissolution of a prominent/well renowned "Pastor", the end game simply put, is baby Christians (even some Elect) that look up this so called "men of God" now have a precedence not to stay in marriages i.e. if "Pastor" Anita divorce "Pastor" Chris, then "who am i not to divorce my Husband and vice versa."

So if Pastor Chris and Anita enter hot oil, who are the followers not to enter ba? Only a fool will follow the steps of Pastor this and that and not what the bible says.
Iss there Pastor in the bible or heaven? The problem is most Nigerian Christians especially forget that their MOG is also a Man. It's only the God part they see.
The Bible said contend for your faith and fight for your own salvation with fear and trembling.
I have no comments concerning their personal lives but this I know. As they press towards the mark of Salvation, if God qualifies them by grace, then they are saved. All d follow follow people that haven't eaten 'belleful' and that don't even know anything about them but want to die on their matter like nairaland tribalists are just wasting their precious time. Allll man for themselves.

Good for him.

Of what use is glorifying Gucci and co. Same mentality that is ruining our nation. We should be ashamed it's only a Mai Atafo piece that is Nigerian there. So annoying, showing the bottom of someone's shoes all to prove a point.

As long as we remain slaves to Gucci, Pucci, Giambatistta and co, our industry will remain grounded. Our youth had better get their perspective off the ground.

timilehing:
Kids do it with cheap talks, mature guys do it in absolute silence and smile

Very true. The op and his brother have very limited reasoning. Is that how you tell God thank you by looking for those that have wronged you to avenge them?

If God now blesses him with more, what will he do? Crush them or splash dirty water on them? Mature people are grateful for progress and move on.

Happy married life to them.
From my candid observation, I think most male folks of this era do not regard the sanctity of marriage.
Married men having side chick's, keeping late nights and generally dishonoring the wows they made seem to be the order of the day.

Despite having women who deliver the sex, food, looks, money and even the lineage back to back.
It seems society has accepted the 'cheating ' toga as a normalcy. What a shame.

I pray it's not too llate for broken hearts, disappointed wives and philandering husbands.

It's is better to remain single till you can conquer the flesh.

Akanbiedu:
Old fox.

You got it right. An old clever cunning wise dangerous calculated fox. The worst of its kind. I'll watch my back for that type.

Happy married life to both of them.

Hello blackkie,

I must say thank you for this post. Reading from page one to the end was like attending a Jamb Class. I want to appreciate your open mindedness.
I am currently sourcing for clients and would like to speak with you. Also I will love. The farm link in Edo state.

LordAdam:
Abeg, do not call those politicians.

Soludo's only major achievement under OBJ was market recapitalization. He is a corporate ass-licker like Emefiele. And now a politician, we cannot have a politician there who will be doing APC versus PDP with critical monetary policies. His recent utterances prove he will use the position to score cheap political points.

Madam BBOG is another technocrat cum politician. If you read her recent tweet criticizing Emefiele, you will marvel at the level of ignorance she displayed, comparing Nigeria to Russia. She can manage ministry of women affairs not a critical ministry like finance. She will play politics with it.

PMB needs to bring technocrats with very little exposure in the political scenery, preferably with western financial education and experience to hold these lofty positions. Nigeria is the 21st largest economy in the world right now out of 190 countries. We cannot be playing politics or doing hit and miss with our economy. I know we have many of them, (our population is around 170 million, ninth largest in the world, so he cannot say we only have politicians to fill those positions) it is up to him to scour for them.

-Lord

I agree with you, their political affiliations have tainted their professional expertise. They, especially Soludu will be easily manipulated based on their exposure. We need people that answer to no one except the good of the country. Better suggestions anyone?

Banks are not charity organisations so their services shouldn't be free. N1/mille or per thoussand is d same thn and a fee of N1 is not out of place. If its too much for anyone, that person do his/her biz without involvn d bank.

2. Park well. Are you telling me That banks as financialists and economists have no idea what to do with monies deposited in their safety? Do you know how much they have in their possession. If I give you 50M tomorrow, you will collect charge from me ba?
That's what happens when people in strategic positions think backwards. Will you blame them, when all they specialize in is how best to aid politicians to loot funds abroad

Don't ever go to the public claiming banking must be with a charge. The advanced world may question your sanity.

PUHLEASE, how many banks in the world charge COT or this Phony maintenance fee or send out marketers out to prostitute on behalf of deposit generation.
Because they are too lazy to practice real banking, The public has to pay for it. Heritage Bank started with zero COT, they have broken even.
The charges will contact to appear under different names till Emefiele the puppet is brought to book or we secure a court injunction against such ( don't know how possible that is), either ways we need an assertive CBN governor, not a knowledgeable but manipulative person. The position of CBN governor and Finance minister is too critical for easily manipulative people.

kai... May God help dis generation.. We dnt hav any gud tin to offer rather than showin our six packs, flauntin cars, showin boobi & yansh, taking selfie etc while old pple ar busy siphonin our money and ruling us anyhow. Imagine, some gullible n senseless youths ar ready to die bcox of Buhari some even yab & curse themselves on social media.

Very true. Our generation has lost it. The people in power were already there by age 30 and above, we're so instagram, boobs, baby mama and papa and back to back nonsense focused. The. Leaders of tomorrow have started since the past. We dey here dey lounge foolishly. May God help us.

Some banks are yet to commence zero COT. If you have a zenith account. Go and reconfirm

That Waje kegs no be small thing oo. Na depot.

Pavore9:
I am fully aware of what l am saying. We are so sucked up into believing that we cannot survive without oil. Kenya have discovered oil few years ago and have not even began production nor eager to rely on it because just like their President said they don't want to make the same mistake Nigeria made, She found oil and ignored other things! A litre of petrol for over the years sold for N224 in Kenya till last year when it came down to N180 but the transport fare in Kenya is far cheaper in comparison to Nigeria that sells under N100 per litre, this you can verify from any Nigerian living in Kenya. Domestic flight is also cheap, the same flight duration between Lagos and Abuja that is above N20,000 in Nigeria goes for N8,000 in Kenya and Nigeria happens to a oil producing Country!

Do you know how many billions of dollars Kenya earns from tourism and agriculture? 75% of Rose flowers sold in Europe is from Kenya and every night different airlines depart with cargoes of fruits, vegetables and flowers from Kenya heading to Europe to be sold in markets across Europe the next day. Nigerians go to Europe to buy the same flowers Kenya exported there!

Nigeria will NEVER die because of the fall in price of oil rather the crash will wake her up!

A mature, clean and sensible argument.

Most beautiful queen?

I tire for the title ooo, was wondering when a pageant was held for all royal families in Nigeria. Most beautiful Queen ko, most handsome princess ni.
Wetin person no go see.
Next will be most finest lady

No weekends, close Like 11pm everyday , loss of work-life balance . No work life balance, just work balance. Technology not yet 100% digitalised. MPR meetings on Saturday tlll 5pm. You may be mandated to come on Sundays sef. Of what use is good pay when you can't even sspend it without the shadow of your company lurking behind you for tasks. Most people I know resigned from access bank without the prospect of another job so they could retain the remaining shreds of their sanity.

Money isn't everything.
