When I faced panel in my final year, it was for something I didnt even do. I was sure my HoD was waiting for an excuse in that final year to deal with me because I show the man pepper when I was the President of the student association.

Small protest that student did because they wanted to start no school fees no test, I joined the protest in solidarity. I wasn't even in the front or do anything, I was just at one corner observing but because my HoD saw me while trying to maintain peace I was called the mastermind of all the whole thing. Infact before the end of that day, the news has gone round the town and the other 5 campuses that former accounting student President organized protest and wanted to beat the HoD. Our HoD infact told me I will not graduate with my set.

We were over 100 that protested, but na me and 5 friends name that they pasted on the school board for exam malpractice and school disturbance. They didnt even know one of my friend name, they wrote his description from head to toe. It was almost a week later they I heard that it was about classmates that we were protesting together that gave them my friends name.

The next 3 month we were facing and panel, begging lecturers and my HoD everywhere, prostrating on the road, going to our main campus to defend ourselves from being expelled and the likes.

Thankfully all the begging worked and our HoD wrote a letter to the school disciplinary committee exonerating me and my friends. That's what saved us from expulsion.

I went toe to toe against one wicked Obstetrics lecturer back in UNI, everybody hailed me and I felt like the new Afrika, baba came to class and asked those who felt 'Aworinde's stance was the best', even the most hardened cultists no get up, my 2IC in the so called struggle no get up, I look see say na only me, myself and I. I realized that I was not the only son of my father, and if I allowed strong headedness get the better of me, I will eventually fail myself and myself alone. Na so I "fold". Needless to say, I no follow anybody talk for one full semester, I no reply greetings, I no collect handshake nothing

Only a fool will allow his/herself to be egged on by those who have nothing to lose, make she dey there, suffice to say dem fit use erisco products do watery beans for am for kirikiri.

PDPGuy:
Gbam!

65k - 70k is okay for minimum wage, even for the most hardworking entry-level civil servants. Also, the national minimum wage law may be amended in a way that it would apply only to the federal and state governments, and corporations.

Na for this thread we dey argue whether 600K dey reach family of 4 live normal "middle-class" life and people say na because people no sabi live within their means. One egg na #200-250, I get more rice, beans and garri stored under my bed for uni than I can afford to store in my house as an adult without feeling like a big man...my wife buy bag of beans, half bagco bag for 20K. I priced roast corn a couple days ago...1 cob o, dem dey tell me #400...I price 3 for 1K, the woman no gree.

The underlying assumption is that NASS members will divert the capital expenditure into their pockets. . . . and that assumption is not incorrect

I hear it's now 5m.

“The NDIC has commenced the liquidation of Heritage Bank Plc: In accordance with Section 55 sub-section 1 & 2 of the NDIC Act 2023, the corporation has commenced the liquidation process of the failed bank with immediate verification and payment of insured deposits to the bank depositors.

“Depositors of the bank that have alternate accounts within the industry will be paid up to the insured amount of N5 million per depositor using their Bank Verification Number (BVN) to locate their alternate account. While depositors with funds in excess of N5 million will be paid liquidation dividends upon realisation of the bank’s assets and recovery of debts owed to the bank.”

Spy360:
For example the people that defended this bad government on this thread don't live in Nigeria.

Itsrm:
So now it's obvious the problem was not because heritage bank cannot be salvaged, Cardoso is just taking a different approach.

And I absolutely agree with you, 500k can no longer cut it. Maybe they'll increase it post recapitalisation.

sod09:
Above 60k is 60001
If I were the government that's what I will do and if ajaero try another strike he will end up in prison because the agreement is above 60k and 60001 is above 60k

In a press briefing addressing the potential impact of Silicon Valley Bank’s failure on Nigerian businesses, Emefiele asserted that bank depositors are the ultimate owners of banks since they have more to lose than shareholders. He emphasized, “I would rather dispose of shareholders than make depositors lose money,” a policy he maintained throughout his tenure.

While I would have preferred they remain on strike while they continue negotiations, even if they call it off, it's a win.

The government has committed to going above 60k which they weren't willing to do before. They also have one week to come up with a reasonable offer or strike returns.

sod09:
More than 60k 🤣🤣🤣
E no fit better for this ajaero why did you waste our time for this nonsense
Blueraydick you see why shutting down the power grid was a stupid move
The agreement wasn't even specified enough yet this slowpoke signed it
His balls should be cut off because he doesn't deserve it I knew he would fold
Why start something you can't finish

Cos both countries are quite different. A lot of those people that lost their jobs in the UK still have access to a level of free quality healthcare and welfare benefits that is unattainable to the average Nigerian.

You now add the emotional torture of seeing the politicians that put you in this nasty position all driving around in their customized luxury cars and building mansions with their ill-gotten wealth.

The day Nigerians check the country's expiry date and realize the country expired a long time ago, that is the day the leaders will feel the pain.

I visited someone who gave birth within the week and she was lamenting that unlike before when people give gifts, most people were giving her money.

People have calculated that 2 or 3k will not buy anything reasonable so they just give her the money

“The notice of strike was too short. It was given from the negotiation table and it was 48 hours or less. The approach of the current crop of NLC leaders is aggressive, arrogant, fascist and partisan. The body language is unmistakable. It is directed at bringing the government down. This NLC has no respect for the rule of law, not even an iota of decorum for democratic practices.

“If we cannot speak for the government, what about Nigerian Muslims whose lives your strike could turn into a sheer nightmare? Is this a deliberate attempt to make life uncomfortable for Muslims? Will NLC declare a strike one week before Christmas? Or is this about bringing down our Muslim-Muslim ticket? Is this part of the ‘religious war’ of ‘Yes Daddy’?

“This strike is ill-timed. It is a recipe for a topsy-turvy Salah. We advise NLC to postpone it till after the Salah. If NLC rejects our advice and goes ahead with its satanic strike, we will ask all Muslim workers who know that they will meet Allah yaom al-Qiyaamah (The Last Day) not to cooperate with NLC. They should reject the strike because it is an assault on the religion of Islam.

nihilistjnr:
You are conflating a political issue with an economic one.

Election costs millions of dollars in expenditure and alliances. Politicians must recoup. That's the unfortunate nature of the beast that there's no point arguing.

The issue here is whether trebling or quintipling minimum wage is a feasible solution to a cost of living crisis driven by inflation. There's on upper limit on the cost of goods and services, so when retailers hear that cleaners are now earing 100k, prices will go up and only find equilibrium when the purchasing power of 100k is on par with the old 30k salary...and then what happens next? Another strike?

I don't envy anybody involved because I don't think there's a solution that works for everybody on the horizon.. Nigeria is just too fückef at the current time. That's why I've been a japa proponent for a long time.

Itsrm:
100k is no longer what you think it is. If you come back to Naija today, you will blow that 100k faster than you'll finish one cigarette

nihilistjnr:
100-150k minimum wage for a lastma street sweeper or LGA cleaner sounds insane sha.
