We get two of this for my house growing up. It is multipurpose; it is used by the most senior person in the house at each point in time to either drink tea or drink cold water .

Abraham Maslow clearly shared how societies should be: at the base of his hierarchy of human needs are the basic things; food, shelter, water, clothing, and sleep but even a University graduate in Nigeria can’t afford any of these conveniently.

Yet, the citizens are being gaslighted to believe they have been living fake life trying to stay alive .

Omo! Shey make T-Pain and APC kukuma drink the people’s blood , maybe their supporters will rest by that time sha .

Lmaoooooooooo

But on a serious note, this thing is actually not funny o.

The thing is u can be earning decently well and still be complaining bitterly in this economy because as much as u earn well; ur dependents whose income has been eroded with the whole inflation and current hardship will be on ur neck for assistance .

Except u are someone who is naturally self-centered and don’t care about others ; this T-Pain hardship hand go meet u if u are resident in Nigeria and earn in Naira .

Aside family members , u have friends , distant acquaintances and even community members who look up to u for anything at all to keep body and soul together .

I remember we had a discussion here about 600k salary earlier this year and most people thought 600k is enough salary to live a decent middle class life . Today , all of that is not relevant anymore ; everybody just Dey try survive . By the time u fill ur car tank , fill gas , drop money for monthly upkeep as a dutiful father/husband , recharge prepaid meter , buy groceries/toiletries , etc ; u discover u are looking towards the next salary or the next quarterly allowance.

But right here u will be told u have been living fake life from the day u were conceived as a foetus . May God help us !

Funny how the Nostradamus1 moniker has disappeared since Tinubu began cooking 🧑‍🍳 after he spent the whole electioneering period defending T-Pain.

I know he has probably changed moniker ; Nostradamus1 abeg if u see this post come let’s reason together . Let’s hear ur view and opinion about almost 2 years of T-pain’s administration .

raumdeuter:
Lee Kuan Yew did not achieve all that in 18months did he?

E lo fokanbale, A ma mu wale. Just keep faith and vote him for 2nd term

Na so!

Shebi Lee Kuan Yew was stupidly engaging in profligacy while Singapore’s economy was in comatose state na .

I know people who are born to suffer while Tinubu and his family chop the life of their head will definitely vote him for second term . Make he carry go !

KingTom:
Very insensitive, this man has brought shame and ridicule to my tribe. E go reach where person go dey answer strictly English and Islamic names because of him, I won't lie I had high hopes for him but he seems to find new ways to dash the hopes every single day, even when I placed my hands on my waist and stated that things were bad I never imagined it'll get this bad, and to think with his track record, more and more ways to afflict the public are in the offing. I have transfered my hands from from waist to my head, I am now wailing uncontrollably in the streets like a lunatic

The funny thing about T-Pain’s failure is that it is glaring for everyone to see. Even his staunchest supporters who are known to always parade stats and claim he built Eldorado ; dem don run out of content to defend him. You will never see his supporters openly accepting to debate any reasonable and self-evident achievement of his administration thus far.

He’s almost 2 years in office and nobody can point to what he has done to make the life of Nigerians better since he ascended the “throne” .

Na only him and his political appointees & families don experience positive change in fortune ; the rest of Nigerians just dey GBA dey go.

I’m glad he got the presidency tho, at least in the future nobody will lie to the younger generation that had it been T-Pain was given a chance to rule Nigeria, he would’ve transformed the country to Singapore as our own Lee Kuan Yew. 😏

Tinubu Presidency Spends N5.1billion On Purchase Of Another 26 Vehicles To State House In Three Weeks


Document from the public payments portal, Govspend, has shown that the Nigerian presidency under Bola Tinubu spent N5.1billion on buying cars between August 18 and September 9, representing 21 days or three weeks

Data published on the Govspend website showed that the State House paid N3.4billion on August 18, for the purchase of sixteen numbers of 2023/2024 model Toyota Prado, to the State House, Abuja.This would mean that each Prado costs N212million.

On September 9th 2024, N1.7 billion was spent to purchase 10 units of Toyota Camry V4, 2023, to the State House. This would mean that each Toyota Camry cost the government N170 million.

SaharaReporters' review of Public Payments platform Open Treasury portal earlier showed that the Tinubu-led Presidency under the tag “State House” spent the sum of N9.2billion on motor vehicles between in March and May 2024.This would mean that with the N5.2billion spent between August 18 and September 9, joined to the N9.2billion spent between March and May, 2024, the presidency spent N14.4billion on motor vehicles.

Nigeria currently battles with issues around revenue, relying heavily on loans to fund their budget.
SaharaReporters recently reported that Nigeria’s debt profile grew by over N46trillion under the current administration of Bola Tinubu.
Debt servicing which is also a result of reliance on loans also gulped N4.4trillion as of second quarter of 2024.

It is only the presidency that has the exclusive right to live fake life, the citizens need to adjust so T-Pain can continue to enjoy the fruit of his labor.

T-Pain dey buy 2023/2024 Model vehicles while citizens are being advised to cook with firewood and bath with Omo detergent.

GloriousGbola:
there are so called 'computer cut' keys that are supposedly more difficult for locksmiths to work with. your regular padlock key can be cut in less than a minute . (then again if you follow lockpicking lawyer on youtube..)

also people are careless. when workers are in the house i move the keys from their usual place because it is likely easy for someone with bad intentions to but the key in putty and get its impression.

the real problem though is you are sharing a compound with multiple people and there is a limit to how you can police them. Also your security guys can be in on it

Between me and you, I am 99% sure the thief gained access into the compound due to carelessness of one of my neighbours but he denied it when myself and another neighbor suggested it.

Here is why: The particular neighbour had someone work on his AC a week before the incident and the AC's location outside is not far from where the cylinder was stolen. When we showed the neighbor the CCTV footage to confirm if the guy is one and same with the AC guy, he denied (albeit unconvincingly).

I think he knows the guy but he doesn't want to be seen as the person who brought a thief into the compound. The thief most likely took his key when he came to work on his AC, used the chance to scan the environment and then figured a period when everyone will be out of the premises.

afrodoc2:
There is something i don't understand about Nigerians. How are people still living their lives in these conditions. It should be mathematically impossible for people to afford to pay for goods at these incredibly inflationary prices but someway somehow, Nigerians still find a way.

Can a Bible believing brother please explain?

I don’t know if I mentioned it here earlier this year or if it was on another platform; the new model/formula being employed by Nigerians to weather the storm is called BBS : Beg , Borrow or Steal .

BEG : A lot of people have sadly resorted to begging just to augment their income to be able to afford their basic needs. People literally beg you at the door of restaurants , supermarkets , in church , in markets where u want to buy food items and even at bus stops for bus stops where u are about boarding a bus.

About 2 months ago one young boy approached me when I was about to enter a restaurant to get food. The boy was hawking Okirika shoes and bags ; he asked I that give him money to get food because he hasn’t made any sales and he’s very hungry . I feared he was probably lying and would gamble with the money so I took him to one of attendants to sell him porridge and meat( cos I felt porridge will fill him ) . Omo! I was shocked with the way the boy rushed the food after he was served . I had to give him 1k after paying for the food and left.

BORROW : A lot of people have borrowed money from Opay, Palmpay and all those soft loan app companies to the extent that they now have negative credit score. That’s why if u are in naija , u will surely get calls from those loan apps making threats and asking u to tell ur friend or relative to pay them back their money with interest. Even people u never thought would ever be in such embarrassing position have no choice but to borrow when bills choke them. Unfortunately those loan companies are very crazy and will go to any length to embarrass their debtors . I’ve narrated how two different companies called me in respect of someone in the past. I know someone who got married to a relative , these useless loan apps sent one of their threatening messages to his mother-in-law that she should tell him to pay back his loan or they will deal with him 🤦‍♂️

STEAL: Petty theft is massively going on lowkey but being underreported in the media . Late last year ; in the very house I stay , one guy stole one of my neighbor’s cooking gas cylinder .

Our landlord doesn’t allow anybody to keep their cylinder indoors so when u move in, u are expected to fix ur cylinder outside while u run the gas indoor with a hose . The neighbor’s son got home from school that day , wanted to warm the food his mum prepared in the morning and noticed the cooker wasn’t responding when he switched it on. The boy checked outside and didn’t find the cylinder so he called his mum. When the mum came back from work she confirmed what the boy said on phone that the cylinder is nowhere to be found.

Fortunately we have CCTV in the compound so we asked Landlord to review the CCTV footage so we can really know what happened fir the sake of our safety going forward . Lo and behold ; we saw one middle aged man walk through the compound gate around 1.30pm in the afternoon when nobody was at home. The guy was well dressed and doesn’t even look like a thief in any way. He walked straight to where the cylinder was, removed regulator, picked it up and exited the compound with it.

Omo! I’ve never seen such smooth operation before in my life . What remained a mystery till date is whether the guy had a key which he used to open the small gate from outside or whether someone carelessly didn’t jam the gate(it’s a jam gate that can only be opened with a key from outside ). We had to change the gate’s lock the next day because we don’t know if the guy still has further mission in the compound . Till date I have not seen anyone that looks like that guy in passing , because CCTV caught his face .

This happened last year o, only God knows the kind of stealing that is going on lowkey in different areas now. I’m sure if such thieves are apprehended , they will claim it was hardship that pushed them into stealing .

You aren't serious.

Please refer to your constitution.

E choke, choken’t it ?

FEGEITOK:
Have you ever heard that criminal proceedings and civil proceedings can proceed independently?

Diddy is being pursued in both ways.

The laws that apply to both scenarios are different.

A right can be breached in the process of enforcing criminal law and the one wronged has a right to pursue civil remedies.

Can you please educate me on what rights Betta had that has been trampled upon by FG by removing her from office for breaking the law?

I want to learn

FEGEITOK:
The law is funny. she will be pursuing her civil rights (in the US) or her human rights (in Nigeria)

There is a wide berth between civil and criminal wrongs.

I am telling you on the basis of rights she will win, study discrimination cases to get my drift

The way you are going about this thing , you are making it seem like she has a case of wrongful dismissal which she can win if she institute a civil suit against her principal . Unfortunately you are wrong in that regard .

She was not wrongfully dismissed , neither was she discriminated against .

She contravened the law and she was rightfully dismissed .Case closed ! The law says you shouldn't transfer any public money into a private account or you will be assumed to have done that with criminal intent . She did that and was rightfully shown out the door .

What do you think judges do in court ? They simply interpret the law . The law was very clear and she contravened the law . She can’t argue that she was not allowed to continue to break the law or that she should not be punished for the law she’s broken.

If you feel for her , that’s just emotion and has nothing to do with the law. You can feel for a man who steals bread out of hunger in Kano and his hands gets amputated in accordance with sharia law; but the law is the law .

Ballzproblem2:
This not about my views on Islam ,Nigerians are just getting by now ,tinubu just dey do anything without consequences.

We are focused on wrong shit.

"Night vigil right vs night vigil wrong"


"Sex tape".


And all sorts of useless stuffs that don't make brain , I'm starting to think obi sef is part of the cabals, distracting Nigerians from plaguing issue.

Why tinubu they attend Arab summit? A country that has Christians and traditionalist?

Tinubu is attending because Nigeria is a member of OIC( Organization of Islamic Conference ) . Guess what ? It was Yakubu Gowon ( A Christian head of state ) who took Nigeria to join OIC in 1969.

In fact, Obasanjo ( a Christian ), Yar Adua ( A Muslim ) , Jonathan ( a Christian ) and Buhari ( a Muslim )have all attended OIC before Tinubu did as presidents.

Na Gowon carry Nigeria join OIC in his desperation to win the Civil war. He approached the Egyptian head of state back then for arms to prosecute the war , that one assisted him and then introduced him to other members of OIC which Nigeria had no choice but to join as an observer.

Na Gowon we supposed Dey channel our vexations to, not presidents who came after him and only maintained status quo .Babangida only regularized our OIC membership status in 1986 when he was head of state , but it was Gowon who registered Nigeria as a founding member in 1969

I go find time watch the series.

People dey say Trump coming in would mean these files (including those on his his narcotics case) get released, but I doubt sha, tho e for make sense to see the full extent of his involvement with the CIA...was it before Abacha, during Abacha, after, or even till today?

Even with Trump in power , I don’t think he would be able to influence anything that has to do with CIA and their assets .

USA has institutions that are greater than individual’s influence . For example CIA can oppose sharing details of their assets to the public despite the POTUS wanting info out in the open. The CIA can go to court where an independent judiciary will side with them (if they have a good case ) , while the POTUS will lose out . The US is not Nigeria where the wish of the executive is automatically the wish of the judiciary because the executive buys cars and builds houses for judges .

Theflint1:
Please what does it mean for someone to be described as an asset to the CIA and other US intelligence bodies...especially when the person in question is a foreigner.

Go and watch snowfall ; if u be CIA asset u be CIA asset .

CIA can take away everything u have in a jiffy , they can rid u of that illusionary wealth u think u have and they won’t even be remorseful about it.

I know u are talking about the recent David Hudenyin’s expose on twitter ; I just Dey siddon look mode .👀. I really want to see where all of these will end . I know David can be overzealous with the way he adds confinement to his “sauce” , but I want to wait this out and see where all of these ends.

Person show u data say electricity output has not increased under T-pain, in fact na under Bubu we get the most electricity output . You have no answer to that fact .

So what do you do next ? Find a way to drag Peter Obi who is not the president into the matter with innuendos and make fallacious claims about the so-called development of the country happening under T-pain’s government .

Oya show us with evidence the development that has happened to this country since T-pain took over . Show us a list of things T-pain has done that has won the people over to his side since he gained power . No ?

Meanwhile, I can show you videos of different people who were interviewed before T-Pain gained power who declared their 100% support for him; one year after assuming office they are regretting they ever supported/campaigned for him( all captured on camera ) .

I know it’s not easy to Stan a failure like T-pain and it’s really tough trying to look for one thing T-pain has done that has positive impact on the populace , but no be by force to squeeze water out of a stone na 🤷‍♂️

FEGEITOK:
She was a scapegoat.

Unfortunate, she suffered discrimination, but she can't sue because she needs to be in the good books of the party.

It is the practice of the system, she did nothing wrong.

If everyone else doing it was not sacked, then her sacking is discrimination pure and simple.

She actually did something wrong . Section 713 of Nigeria's Financial Regulations 2009 states that “Personal money shall in no circumstances be paid into a government bank account, nor shall any public money be paid into a private account“

“An officer who pays public money into a private account is deemed to have done so with fraudulent intention,”

If you pay government money into a private bank account , it is deemed you doing so with fraudulent intent ; it is very clear .

It’s just like getting caught trafficking drugs and you start claiming you didn’t do anything wrong because you know a lot of people who have been trafficking drugs for years and have made fortune from it.

I agree with you that she was used as a scapegoat tho.

GloriousGbola:
Ekun hand no dey this one. At least not directly. But whoever did this will get the axe.

That minister was a state trained jjc who has no experience in paper stealing in a hazardous environment

Hmmm.... Don't forget that Betta Edu didn't pay any money into her own personal account o, it was the account of one Bridget Oniyelu that the money was paid into. Just like this one that involves the money being paid into the account of one Unoh Omolara.

The only thing that wouldn't make Edun complicit is if they don't need his approval as minister to move N55m into a personal account.

One thing that is obvious in all of these is that a lot is really going on in the civil service. I remember during that Betta scandal, people defending her were arguing that there's nothing wrong in moving funds into personal account. More like they are so used to impunity that they don't even know its wrong.

GloriousGbola:
ne wetin dem take hook our bleaching minister be this

someone is in the one chance

I don't think T-pain will axe Edun like they did our lady minister

SaharaReporters' review of public payments portal, Govspend, has shown that a sum of over N55 million, was paid into the account of one Unoh Omolara, for the sendforth party of Udo Okonkwo Ekanem.

The payment was made by the Federal Ministry of Finance.

Okonkwo served as the permanent secretary, special duties of the ministry.The payment for the party was made on September 13th, 2024.
According to the payment description, the event was scheduled to hold at Transcorp Hilton hotels on September 6th, 2024.

Further checks revealed that the event was confirmed by the ministry of finance on its website.The ministry had noted that it celebrated the Ekanem in appreciation of his oustanding commitment.

This is despite the provision of Chapter Seven, Section 713 of Nigeria's Financial Regulations 2009 states that “Personal money shall in no circumstances be paid into a government bank account, nor shall any public money be paid into a private account.”

The money spent on the sendforth was twice the amount spent to set up 28 boreholes in Jigawa State.

According to details on the Govspend website, N28.3 million was spent on drilling twenty-three solar powered borehole and five numbers hand pump boreholes in Jigawa State.

This would mean that this money spent on sendforth, half of it would have provided same number of solar powered boreholes and hand pumps in other locations of the country.

There have been concerns over prudence in management of government resources by different ministries’ department and agencies.

Although, the government has expressed its commitment to accountability, experts say there are loopholes exploited by different government parastatals.

LPG is currently cheaper than pms - don't use like for like. 12k is now 11 litres and that is not going to carry your gen for 6 hours

Also I am buying 1350/kg

Govt has supposedly stopped lpg export so the price will drop but here we are.

Well, I don't have an idea whether it takes the same time to burn 1kg of LPG & 1 liter of PMS. I was only pointing it out to Theflint1 that a liter of PMS costs more than a kg of LPG.

I asked the price of LPG at NNPC filling station and they told me N1,500. I bought it for N1,350 at a gas plant elsewhere sha

For every neighborhood with steady power there are many others with awful electricity. We literally have Bands.

Tinubu has done nothing on power.

Your friend will buy a generator at 400K. Power it with gasoline at 1100/liter (12,000 for six hours) for the next few months.
Mid next year, he'll start enjoying power again.
The seasonality is GEJ and Buhari legacy. The outrageous cost of off-grid energy solutions is T-pain's contribution.

I understand but you are now making a new directive/legislation with no human face to trample on land owners' right. Was the directive there before they bought the land?

"We, the AntiTpain AntiBlueraypain see this as an assault on our rights and you are targeting some of us owning the lands because we didn't vote for you and majority are from the other region of the country. This will never happen in a sane country but under Blueraypain, it is
about to happen."

"Lands they are supposed to use to build factories for employment for our children they want to take it from us without full payment/compensation and dump refuse."
We will use every means to fight back including voodoo. Their legs will swell if they enter our lands forcefully".

You get the drift?

This doesn't even make any sense.

We are talking of areas that are neither residential nor their C of O has been issued. Nobody is talking about a land that has already been acquired with full title; they are virgin lands which belong to the state government by law.
