Yuck!

Your ignorance and stupidity stink to the highest heavens

I can smell your bad breath from 6000km away

What does economic security have to do with being a welfare state?

How can someone pushing for higher fees and promoting the local over the foreign, be termed as anything negative.

You lots are not ready to revive Nigeria from the pathway of doom.

You criticize the leaders for using foreign cars, but you also insist on the use of those foreign cars.

You have universities here in Nigeria, but even the poorest Nigerian is still aspiring for foreign education.

Nigeria is not rich, and Nigeria should stop undercharging for services and underpaying for labour.

Both the leadership and follwership need to get that into their heads.

It’s one thing to ensure that local transactions within the country are conducted in local currency but it’s another thing to go after privately-owned legally acquired funds domiciled in bank accounts

You’re advocating that forex inflows should be forcefully converted to naira and the balance taxed untill it drops to half . That’s your own idea of an economically viable monetary policy.

What does economic security have to do with being a welfare state?

It’s the other way round : The ultimate goal of a welfare state is to provide economic security to its people

You’re conflating issues :
Buying foreign cars vs patronizing local auto is a different matter which is even partly what I was advocating for by saying turning the country into a production base .

That has nothing to with targeting funds in a private account

Being a welfare state is just one of the many aspects of a socialist economy . And this is a key part of APC’s political ideology .

Lol look at them

This is why you 9-5 job workers should stick to civil service and farming and let capitalists run the economy .

You people from that side are naturally not entrepreneurs . You have no idea how to run a business , how will you run a country ?

Stick to your salary Jobs, you say no
Stick to farming , you say no
Stick to your carpentry and artisanal businesses. , you no gree .

You say you must run the country. Say you dey sophisticated. But you think a country can grow under a socialist system of welfare benefits , and government patronage and control . A palliative economy while free enterprise suffers .

Instead of turning the country into a production. base , na to dey shook eye for other people money. Is that the best you can do ? I dont blame you tho. You cannot give what you don’t have .

But go and do your research, those countries that went the way of Karl Max and Lenin , where dem dey now ?

Throwback:
Very good!

We don't spend dollars in Nigeria. Collect the naira equivalent and spend.

Why government will tolerate that rubbish is quite puzzling.

Nigeria is about the only foolish country that tolerate that nonsense. No sense of economic security.

Next is to ensure domiciliary accounts only get credited with foreign currencies from international transfer to cater for those who work rotations abroad or those who work remotely, and once the account is credited, any amount beyond a certain threshold should be converted to Naira, while whatever is left should be taxed at a monthly rate that ensures that the money is reduced to half of what was left as a forex in the domiciliary account. That will help discourage any plan to retain forex as a means to store wealth in the domiciliary account

This double blow will ensure that those stockpiling forex cash do not have anywhere to offload it within the Nigerian economy.

All forex trading outside of the banking system should carry life imprisonment for economic treason.

I can vouch that 50% of all the forex trading going on in the past 6months, is not serving any economic purpose besides storing wealth.

CoronaVirusPro:
That’s a good measure.

Foreign transfers should be received in Naira.

Peter hasn’t even spoken in a while

That terrorism charge will not stick and they know it
That’s why they're trying to shift it to a case of usurpation cos of the title of Ezendigbo in Ajao Estate .

They conveniently forget that there’re self styled Obas in Igboland who are going about their business freely.

They should give the man bail jare . They’re just endangering the lives of the Obas In Yorubaland.
Cos if something happens to him inside this Yoruba prison …

This was murder !!

Botragelad:
Not these blokes dressing up as the army. Lol

This is just what ISIS do, kidnap women, flog them or wed them off, use them as slaves. Bloody awful. Keep joking about with TERRORISTS while they take over your country.

If the Nigeria government are useless, they should get foreign guns(mercenaries) for hire who have no ties with these terrorists and track them down!

They would have raped shege already out of those women. Including that little girl you’re seeing .

Spits*

Can someone please interpret what they’re saying ?

Where’s that Yarimo ?

Come here and be useful

Tell us what percentage of that went towards Buhari and his government aides’ numerous foreign trips abroad.

Okay

I came across one article on nairaland copied and pasted from a shady blog Fiji.ng

It claimed that Osun , Kwara states and Zamfara states are among the self-sufficient states in Nigeria that can pay salaries without federal allocation .

Meanwhile according to this same blog, majority of the oil producing states in SE and SS that supplies the very crude oil that is the lifeline of Nigeria and also supplies the gas that powers the thermal stations to generate electricity for the industrial hubs and homes accross Nigeria are not self sufficient 🤣

But the funniest part was quickly how tribal bigots emerged from under the rug and gathered to boast and throw insults. It seemed like they messaged each other . Over a set of questionable statistics ??

I never even heard of Fiji.ng

But let’s take osun for example , I know the state very well . What is in Osun State Their biggest product/export is Davido . Then the gold that they discovered recently . But they only get 13% derivative tax on the gold and none on Davido😂

What about Kwara State? Unless you’ve never been to Ilorin , that’s why you’ll believe this statistics. Is the Coca-Cola or 7up bottling company along Coca-Cola road that generate the IGR ?

My message to these chest beaters : whatever helps you sleep at night

Fiji.ng to the rescue . 🤣🤣

theredaddy:
Hilarious ! you can say that again, One of was just still bragging to me Yorubas & hausas are the worst hit under the present hardship .. as if we don't have igbos as Neighbours or see how they live tew, 300% inflation naa your mate

They claim every household in their region are millionaires yet only one state out of that region can generate IR to pay their workers .. why will people just be decieving themselves

Oga you wan dey masturbate over a fictitious list by Fiji.ng

Who be Fiji lol ?

Whatever makes you happy

ILoveNG:
Even their states are not performing, but Tinubu is the cause of their problem.

Unfortunate lives!

You’re masturbating over an article by Fiji.ng

Lmao . I know Osun and Kwara. There’s nothing there

shortIGBOman:
Anambra
Enugu
Abia
Imo
Ebonyi

These states fail to make the list.

What stupid list ?

You created a list and gathered your fellow lowlifes to come and masturbate together

Who be fiji.ng 🤣

omohayek:
Hilarious, considering Lagos, Ogun, Osun and Kwara are amongst the states listed as being able to pay their workers, while not a single state from your region is. Who exactly is "ebi" supposed to "pa" again?

Dey deceive yourself with fake statistics.
Is that not what you people are good at ?

Osun state that will collapse without FG help is suddenly self sufficient 🤣

Godfullsam:
An average Igbo thinks too high of himself.

How on earth will you even entertain the thought that, if igbos leave lagos, the Lagos economy will collapse?

No be mumu be that?!

I have read the OP’s post again and I don’t see where he said anything like that . He is only asking his brethren to not invest in residential properties in Lagos .
The issue is with your deluded brain not the OP

Lol because they’re not in power

Igbos please don’t fall for this nonsense . If they really want to secede , they don’t have to mention igbos anywhere in their statements.

The Ibos (Igbos) are the “wandering Jews” of Africa , gifted , aggressive , Westernized , resented, envied and despised by their neighbours in Nigeria

So it was widely acknowledged that Igbos were the sophisticated tribe , infact the only tribe described as westernized . I would’ve loved to see how they described some other tribes.

“Resented , envied and despised by their neighbours for their successes “ Well that’s pretty obvious to even a blind man. The hate the other tribes have for igbos is still there today , a clear reflection of their own feelings of perpetual inadequacy around an Igbo man

the Feds have cultivated a little clan in discovering that they could run the country without Ibos , who were the backbone of commerce and civil service in the North and on the South

The Igbos and the south-south tribes were the ones literally carrying the country at the time .

Okay so the rest of country decided to run the country without Igbos . And they’ve ran it for the past 50 years , what is the current state of the said country ? They only succeeded in running the country into the ground.

Nigeria today should be a yardstick of measurement for the intelligence of the people who have been running it .

The Nigerians are proud and latently xenophobic , with a special rancour towards the US that comes of being a guilty offspring who disappointed parental hopes
They conduct the war with incredible ineptness both in the battle field and public relations

Look how they describe the federal side . Proud, Xenophobic and Inept. That ineptness is what they carried over into government once they started controlling it after the war ended. They lack resourcefulness , imagination and creativity. Did anyone really expect they could manage this country and achieve optimal gains in all indices of development ?

Tackle security at the grassroots and local level

I am sick and tired of governors waiting for the FG to do everything relating to security because the police is under federal control

There’s no law preventing the empowerment of the various neighborhoods watch and vigilante groups around the country . There’s no law prohibiting governors from recruiting graduates and smart people into the neighborhood watch , supplying them with control centres and buying drones that can monitor the remote areas from the air

There’s no law stopping the governors from arming forest guards with shotguns or pump actions to take on the bandits , kidnappers and robbers that live in the forests .

The governors are too daft.

Edusouls:
98,000 people no be beans ooo and this are the documented ones ooo, many many people are living with the virus without even knowing, some are hidden, Guy anambra na hot bed for infection

Bro try to read first before commenting

44,000 were documented so they estimated double to include those who may be undocumented

RepoMan007:
Igbo states have little outsiders so that figure is very high compared to Ogun.

Ogun state has Igbo's, housas, and many tribes in good proportion unlike Anambra.

But why should it even be something to rejoice or make mockery about ?

Some never-do-wells were making mockery when Anambra announced that it had 98,000 people living with HIV .

Well…

Somebody will say where are the cows ?

The south was supposed to be united to present a united front against banditry and herdsmen ravages. But some states sold out . The bastard Hooe Uzodimma was the sellout in the east .

Ogene001:
Benin Republic IDP camp don full
God bless ESN, something they wish they had

Which ESN?
ESN is a terrorist group , let’s be honest bro
They abandoned the mandate of protecting the forests and farmland and instead were forcing people to sit at home killing scores of my innocent brothers and sisters .

Terrorism means deliberately inflicting acts of violence against a civilian population with a goal to kill , maim or intimidate .

That’s what ESN was doing and they even took responsibility for it.

FG need to remove IPOB from the terrorist list and replace it with ESN

This man is just a politician

No be today Hausa/Fulani don dey chop Nigeria .

Vultures have gathered to declare it a lie

What happened during election was a lie too ?

Actually no . Depends on your mindset or your intent for saying so
