Rest.

We are not in a socialist settings.

Government has failed, in a lot of things, but one thing government should never get involved is, is price control, it kills productivity and competition.
Why should someone stress himself, go to farm, farm cassava, peel it , process it and government should have influence in the price or any other commodity at all.
What will be the motivation for manufacturing if not profits.
When people see how profitable a venture is , more people will enter it and competition, will bring the price down.

Government job is to monitor that the are doing the right thing, tax them and sanction them if they offend.

This your analogy is incoherent, the main issue responsible for price increase is inflation, govt has every responsibility to drive inflation figures down by good policy reforms, unfortunately the reforms introduced were not properly work out, see the resultant effects on all goods and services.

What has that achieved?

Proudlyngwa:
So what concerns Tinubu with all this, Na I'm dey produce those things

So nothing concerns govt with cost of things in the market? So what is the work of Tinubu? He must be useless and lame as duck then

EmperorCaesar:


Norther Christian go too vote APC in 2027

PBAT has a plan and he's clearly following it through

The massive vote he's getting in 2o27 will be unprecedented. We are already having a glimpse of what the new Nigeria would look like under him by 2031

.keep deceiving yourself. I just bought 4 items in a supermarket now worth about #10,000.
2 loaves of bread for #2500.
320g milk for #3400.
And 450 Cadbury Choco for #4100 .
These items last 2 years before your Emperor came into power were just about #3000. These are just to show you the level of depreciation in naira and inflation that Nigerians are grasping with.

Let's us continue to deceive ourselves and live in denial that all is well.
The chicken would soon come to roost.

CoronaVirusPro:
Nigeria will be in US shoes if not better than, if we were THIRTY-SIX TRILLION DOLLARS in debt.

This one is not so intelligent and sound..
Debt is calculated to G.d.p ratio.
Where did u think US raise the debts from? Or who do you think can borrow US money? Go and find out before you comment as an ill informed person

Sycophants in govt. Un serious bunch people just wasting public funds. Why establishing new schools when the old ones are underfunded..Naija is a comedy joke.

Ojuntana:
First of all, it is deeply concerning the change in rhetoric that occurs when the teeth of otherwise intelligent and resourceful professional are set on corn. The kind of gibberish that starts to flow is a sign that the corn being offered on a platter is indeed of the fermented stock. It intoxicates the gobbler with a resultant effect that's comparable with that of the famed 40 year whiskey.

That said, I find it insulting to Nigerians and their hardwork and intelligence when people make this silly narratives of fake life or window-dressed realities. This is more so when the people who make these kind of condescending statements are those who have benefited maximally from the society and have not ploughed back what can be said to be commensurate with what they've accrued for themselves from the proverbial cake.

Imagine a situation where a man who after enjoying the benefits of the high office of governor, and while leaving office makes a law that enables him to continue to enjoy the perks of that same office perpetually as if he were still an occupant.

Not only that, choice properties are allocated to him by him. He then turns around to accuse others of living a fake life.

Ditto this particular case as well. A man who was called to rewrite tax laws which will ensure more money goes to the political elites to fund their excesses and lifestyle both in and out of office turns round to accuse others of window dressing their realities.

I make bold to say Nigerians are among the most deprived yet hopeful and hardworking on the surface of the earth.

The average Nigerian has no social infrastructure or welfare system to fall back on in time of crisis save for a strong family structure.

The average Nigerian farmer works with the least of tools. Yet he's been asked to produce crops to feed the populace and export as well.

The average mechanic works with the basic of tools.
Yet he's expected to drive innovation in technology.

Same for the average carpenter bricklayer, tailor etc. No program to empower such hardworking Nigerians exist.

Rather, they are dumped on the lowest rung of the ladder and left alone to climb or drown while getting talked down on if they ask for a reprieve.

The UK spends 25% of its budget on social welfare and infrastructure. In countries like Saudi which are oil producing like Nigeria, home ownership is a right.

Shall we speak of countries like Norway where unemployment benefits sometimes exceed employment income for the citizens.

Nigerian leaders and elites are among the most corrupt and wasteful in the world. Yet, they hardly take responsibility for how the country has turned out on their watch. They are a bunch of greedy taskmasters who believe in being unquestionable and unquestioned.

FreeStuffsNG:
Blame Biden who slammed new sanctions on Russian oil tankers.

Oil has actually increased significantly to over $80 in the international market since Biden announced the new sanctions that will prevent almost 1m barrel of crude daily supply to the market.

So Biden is the one that plummetted your exchange rate black market from #735 to #1700. You never start. Your black market exchange rate was #735 when you floated it, not the official rate, black marker rate.
You destroyed your economy and you are calling Biden, you would call Trump. You never start.

Tayorshd87:
Yet d shit hole country educated u, house ur family protect u and yet u Wil still abuse the country 🤔


Even when u are successful in the country yet u still abuse it 😞.

It's very wrong ❌

I don't think you can comprehend what you wrote very well. Nigeria is a shit hole because the country handlers have made mess of the country, from health care to transportation etc. People like you with newly found love for the govt would soon be tired.
I believe Nigeria would soon become better when the right sets of people are elected but for now, criminals are in charge

wickedclown:
U see why e no go ever better for you and your generations

I don first tell you and it won't change... Your enemies will triumph over you and your children will spit on your grave and celebrate victory when you die.....

@Sissy3's what's happening why are you guys not banning all these abusive comments.
Why are we these toxics to one another.

@seunosewa pls do something about this forum. Some sane guys here are tired of all these uncouth acts. Pls and pls

Tayorshd87:
Abegiii no be there my wife born ?

So are u telling if nigeria is a shit hole then anybody that visits the hospital should die unless they travel abroad to treat ailments 😡

.dense people everywhere

Naira Land is truly allowing many wrongs to go unchecked. What did I say now that you are referring to me as dunce? Why are we turning so uncultured in this country?

Tayorshd87:
You mumu ooo
Thank God say no be Nigeria he happen people like u would have shouted Nigeria is a shit hole this and that ..

Similar thing happened in Los Angeles where they were unable to pull out the fire until Canada sent for fire fighters to assist them again.

If na nigeria people like u Wil still should the country is a shit hole because if na overseas them go don off am this and that.


NIGERIA CANN NEVER BE GREAT WITH PEOPLE LIKE YOU LIVING IN IT UNLESS WIND EASH YOUR GENERATION AWAY .

kids the truth 💋

You don't have an idea of Nigerian hospital. Go to Nigerian general hospitals and see how patients are dieing awaiting treatment. You dey joke, Nigeria is more than shit hole.

helinues:
I guess the price of goods and services across other countries remain same

Why are the Nigerian wailers getting petty more daily?

Make una drink Zobo if you can't afford sachet milk

Wickedness at the highest level. From #20 to #250 in just less than 10years. Does that make sense to any sensible human?

Naira is falling down, falling down.
Naira just keep falling, falling down. Chai

Wickedness in the world. What is the purpose of this war now.

The govt handlers are going any length to make everyone sees good in this govt. They always use any means to buy people over.

God have mercy on this nation.

Godwin4444:
says an inconsequential igbo

Can't Nairaland ban all these tribal sentiments and comments. Why not clean up these place for sensible contributions.

This forum is being polluted on daily basis. Pls do something

Anointedgem:
Good morning, my daddies, mothers, brothers, and sisters on Nairaland Forum.

Please, I need your help.

I'm using this medium to appeal to everyone that comes across this post to consider me, please. I'm not going to lie so I can be pitied, so I'll just be completely honest.

I'm here to beg so I can get something to eat. Any good person should help me with anything he or she can; I'll appreciate any amount, please.

I'm begging everyone in the name of God Almighty. I've exhausted every option I have, and that's why I'm here now. I have not eaten anything since Monday evening. This is due to the fact that I was evicted from where I was squatting. I have been running helter-skelter looking for where I can get a temporary place to stay.

Please, I am totally broke. I don't have any money; I will appreciate it if anyone can help me with any amount just for me to get something to eat today. Please don't let me die of this hunger! I swear to God Almighty, I've never done this before, and this is the last thing I want to do, but I have no other option now.

Please have mercy on me and help me.

My bank details are:

Bank: PALMPAY
Account Number: 906 137 3493
Account Name: Zainab Opeyemi Saliu


May God Almighty continue to bless you and your family. May you never lack any good things in life. May God Almighty continue to protect you and your family. Amen

I want to sell my Tecno F3 POP 1.

Price: #18,000

If you are interested, please call me at 090 6137 3493. I'm in Epe, Lagos State. I decided to sell my phone because I need to raise funds to buy foodstuffs and keep some money for my transport to Recreation in Epe here where I do cleaning job now for survival.

You have sold this phone since. How are we sure you saying the truth?

oz4real83:
Too many people living beyond their means in this country, until the govt starts taking concrete measures to curtail this trend, these killings will continue.

Even the politicians and govt officials are living beyond their means. The president, govs etc are all living above what they are to earn. So who is going to stop the Yahoo yahoo thing

Franking:
Such a foolish and insensitive comment. I bet you are struggling like everyone else but keeping up appearances.....

He is worst off. So many batists I know are so adamant and struggling. They just can't cope with the fact the baba has failed.
May God have mercy on them. Pls don't because someone is supporting Tinubu not render help unto them.
Pls help them as much as you can, so many batists and jagarbanjitis are suffering and pretending

Sonnobax15:
what a kind gesture from the Nigerian super eagle's flop

I can bet my two dangling balls plus my keke spare tyres that there won't be any stampede or whatsoever there

But down here,even to do ordinary giveaway with your hard earned money fit be your only free ticket to chilling inside jail till after the naming ceremony of Jesus Christ

You don't have an idea of what people are through here? Or you are aware but you just want to be politically right.

No content. No empathy and no substance.
0/10..so unpresidential. We miss OBJ the baba.

Empty talk. Thrash and nonsense.

E lofokan bale till dollars will enter #2000. Inflation is over 40%. Yeye government

As long as the foreign exchange is high, food prices and other essentials would always be expensive and affordable.

Govt has a mesa of the economy and monetary policies, the result is mass hunger we are experiencing now.

Let Dollars come down to less than #1000, things would normalize back on its own.

UncleAyo:
To the Nigerian Police and all necessary stakeholders,

While individuals and groups have the right to express their beliefs, the content and tone of this banner are provocative and directly challenge the core tenets of the Christian faith. Given the sensitive religious diversity in our society, such a statement has the potential to incite public uproar, disturb communal peace, and cause avoidable tensions between religious groups.

Reasons for Concern:

1. Religious Sensitivity: The message is confrontational and could be seen as an attack on Christian beliefs.

2. Potential for Conflict: Public displays of such messages may provoke strong reactions, leading to unnecessary public disorder or confrontations.

3. Violation of Neutral Spaces: Public spaces should remain neutral and inclusive, fostering respect for all religious beliefs.

In light of the above, I respectfully request the following:

1. The immediate removal of the banner to prevent any form of public disturbance.

2. Appropriate measures to ensure similar provocative displays are not erected in the future.

Ensuring peace, harmony, and respect among citizens of different religious affiliations is of utmost importance. I trust that you will take swift action to address this issue and safeguard the public order.

You are not serious at all. You think those that put that banners don't know what they want to achieve

To whom, for which power consumption. No regular power supply in Ikorodu for some months

How do one apply for this properties. They should make the process open and fair for all to see.
So many of the past govt housing projects are bought by politicians and rich people with government connections and renting the structures out to the less privilege.

nairalanda1:
MIllei also

1. Froze salaries

2. Cut all subisdies

3. Stopped spending on new projects

4. Sacked a lot of civil servants.

You sure you want that type of leadership for Nigeria?

Tinubu cut subsides only, you people cried. GEJ, Buhari did the same, you guys cried....so why are you praising a leader who cut a lot of subsides?

One governor sacked workers to reduce cost in 2001, you guys removed him from office next elections...so why are you praising a leader who did same.

And the workers and unions in Argentina protested against MIllei. Well well.

Also poverty has gone up in Argentina, the only benefit is hopefully the country is ready for investment.

You analogy is impecunious,
Tinubu removed subsidy and concocted a monstrous and colossal problem by floating the naira. Naira skyrocketing from #700 to #1900 was reason for the bad economy
