There must be something fundamentally wrong with a religion that'd cause so many of its followers to show extreme blood lust simply because they don't "understand" what the religion is truly about. Murder is pretty serious and these guys point to their religion as backing for their blood lust.
I think it's the way the northerners practise their own brand of Islam honestly . I grew up around Muslims down here in the South and in all my years I don't see southern Muslims talking about murdering of anybody perceived to have insulted the prophet .

Nobody sees u as a lesser Muslim for marrying a Christian down south . The brand of Islam practiced in the north is less tolerant of other religions and very toxic .

Even my barber when I was in the north who happens to be a southern muslim confirmed to me that the northern Muslims will not queue to pray behind u if u are a southern muslim leading the prayers .

Yesterday's match was a forgettable one . I watched the match till around 89th minute and went to sleep . How can we not have a shot on target for almost 1 hour 30 minutes of football ? 🤷🏼‍♂️

That match just shows we are a team without a manager that knows how to tweak things to get a difficult result . After the end of first 45 mins I was expecting the manager to tweak things and have a team with different tactics and mentality come on for the second half . Unfortunately ma same same we play for second half .

My fear now is even if we find a way to beat Porto and qualify for the next round , other more disciplined opponents will use the Porto tactics and give us more problem .

I'm a fan of Arteta but he needs to learn to do things differently ; if not we will keep losing knockout matches under his watch . Porto just played like a more disciplined and focused Newcastle yesterday .

Will blocking access to it stop anyone from accessing it?
Some clever by half person probably advised Tinubu's government to go for a 2 pronged attack .

They clamp down on binance as a platform providing P2P service for those who want to buy virtual dollars and go after BDC operators for those that want to buy physical dollars .

What that advisor didn't tell them is that it is just a temporary solution that won't achieve much success in the long run .

Why ? Because the BDC operators will lie low for a while and not converge at their regular selling points like broad street on Lagos island , Eko hotel roundabout and other locations where abokia converge physically to sell dollars . This only mean dollar will be more scarce and when those abokis decide to sell codedly it will be at a price reflecting scarcity of dollars .

The binance and other FX exchange ban is also a temporary fix that won't hold for long . Other platforms will come up and both buyers and sellers will still transact business albeit with attendant risks .

Everybody knows these strategies will not hold for too long , but let's wait and see where it will lead to

No sir, it is you and PO that do not get it. The ideal thing is to have a stabilized currency which will in turn affect the custom rate. But if the exchange rate moves from 1500 to 1600, the 'consumption to production' man is suggesting that custom should deliberating keep their rate low so that he and his fellow importers can benefit. If you as a common Nigerian says this, I will okay with it as it will help make life easy for us since we are an import nation, but for a 'consumption to production' man to make this kind of suggestion shows that he was all about rhetorics with his 'consumption to production' mantra.

Will what you are trying to explain also work for exporters? would you also agree that CBN should give you 1500 when by the time your vendor pays you and the exchange rate is now 2000?

So almost all manufacturers import raw materials to the Continent where every rich and developed country source their raw materials.

Only Amadioha, your god, knows who gave you guys warped mentality.



Including importers of junk from the high seas, importer of used electronics, used clothes, chalk, toothpicks etc. which most of you are involved in.

Do o, you hia.
Mention one major industry u know that don't import raw materials in this country .

Is it the plastic industry ? Is it the factories making fruit juice ? Is it the pharmaceuticals ? Is it the agro tech ? Is it those making paper ?

Like I told ur fellow compatriot up there , some of u are ignorant and u are proud of it.

Some of us have seen enough Form M's in this life time to know that the Nigerian manufacturing industry is heavily import dependant.

You guys always think you are wiser than everyone else. You hide under "when manufacturers want to import raw materials" when we all know that it is the core importers you and him are talking about.

Every single think you wrote here has to do with import, if he really knew what he was talking about when he was saying comsumption to production, many of the things you will be saying here will be export. So, if it was export you were talking about, would you also agree that CBN should give you 1500 when by the time your vendor pays you and the exchange rate is now 2000?

The man clearly does not understand the scale of the problem, there is no reserve to sustain subsidizing imortation.
You still don't get it ? 🤦‍♂️

Omo!

For 4ck sake! Nothing concerns CBN in this matter ! He's talking about customs duties ; as in the fee u pay to the government when u import any item into the country .

Customs duties also affects manufacturers cos they need to pay duties on raw materials they bring into the country before they produce anything with it. Don't u get ?

Let me break it down for u once more with example . Let's say animal care that produces animal feed locally needs to import chemicals they need to use in their factory .

When they already benchmark they will pay duties at N1000/1$ and within 3 weeks customs increased the exchange rate for paying duties to N1250/1$. That will lead to an increase in their costs. When they eventually clear it , process the chemicals and make animal feed ; poultry farmers will buy it at a higher than normal price .

The poultry farmer too will sell his eggs and live chicken at a higher price and then u will start wondering why there is increase in the price of egg and chicken we produce here in Naija.

I know u and APC minions think Peter Obi is speaking as an importer of foreign goods; but whether u like it or not the constant arbitrary increase in customs duty is definitely not favoring u and ur family
PoliticsRe: Peter Obi Makes U Turn on Production, Advocates Subsidy For Importers by BlueRayDick: 7:03pm On Feb 21, 2024
Some of u just lack comprehension and u are too proud to ask more knowledgeable people to break it down for u before u start running propaganda with what u don't understand . How did what u quoted as Peter Obi's comment on duty charges correlate with the misleading topic of this thread ?

For educational purposes , let me break it down for u.

When a manufacturer for example wants to import raw materials for production of goods and services ; they open Form M at the prevailing market rate at that time; leats say N1500/1$ . When the raw material gets to the country , the manufacturer will be required to pay customs duties in naira to Nigeria Customs. Now that's where the problem is cos the federal government through customs has increased the rate of customs duties several times arbitrarily in the last few months.

It's more like u already made provision for customs duties to be paid at N900/1$ and by the time ur cargo is in Nigeria ; FG thru customs has already jacked it up to N1050/1$. The manufacturer will have no other choice than to pay the duties at that rate , but he will pass that incremental cost down to me and u who are the final consumer of the product that eventually comes out of the factory .

That is why price of locally made goods keep increasing .

It's myopic to think every "importer" imports foreign made goods to sell. For ur information, almost all manufacturers import raw materials to use in the manufacture of their product and that's why Peter Obi is advising the government to tone down on the continued increase in dollar rate for customs duties or else prices of goods will keep going up .

Abeg wetin she dey talk and why these people nor dey regard OBJ?

a tribalist who believes Yorubas that are complaining need to endure and not lament because Tinubu is Yoruba.

She says Yorubas that are complaining , those saying "ebi n' pawa", and those doing videos showing they are recording low sales at their business place; they should exercise restraint and allow Tinubu rule as the first real Yoruba to be president in this country .

She is not convinced Obasanjo is Yoruba enough particularly due to the fact that he was ex-military and was more interested in working with other tribes while he was president .

She believes if Yorubas keep complaining loudly about the hardship in the land , other tribes will mock us .

In a nut shell, she's a privileged agba Dorian who believes those lamenting about the hardship in the land just want to give Tinubu bad name. She obviously cares more about her support for Tinubu & his hardship inducing policies than the suffering the people are going through .

Section 81(1) of the Constitution reserves the power of budget preparation
for the executive. After preparation, the budget is to be “laid” before the National Assembly. This constitutes the
National Assembly into the statutory approving authority for the Appropriation Act
If it is indeed the executive that prepares the national budget, how is it that Tinubu the head of the executive submitted a budget that has N57.6billion allocation for purchase of luxury vehicles to the legislature for approval?

So the defense is if he doesn't include that "peace offering" in the budget at a time Nigeria is going through financial crisis they (the legislature) will not sign the budget and possibly impeach him? undecided
