You mean the way Tinubu is currently changing it - wey make you only fit afford 3 fufu and 1 200 naira kpomo meat?

zinaunreal:

You all are too self inferior and use to bleaching cream.

GTFOH!

zinaunreal:
Vdm looks dirty finally sha. I don't know if that's his color is naturally but I see alot of clean dark looking people

That is his complexion.

Ona too hate ona self.

Na so ona take dey manipulate people to go destroy their skin with bleaching.

helinues:
What exactly is the problem of this boy. Why is he always picking fight with almost everyone

Even the Ednut that brought you to limelight is now on low key with his doings.

Portable was denied bail yesterday, that one over doing caught up with him. If you see the way he was crying like a baby, hands eventually touched him

I am just hoping he won't learn in a bitter way.

If to say e dey support Tinubu and hype his government, you for say he is the best thing after Agege bread.


Reno is a case study...

Na so ona label am while he was insulting Tinubu, today, na ona personal lord and social media saviour.


You guys don't really have anything you stand for.


No honour whatsoever.

Yeye government.

Come force me pay income tax na, after paying through PAYE every month,. including VAT for every purchase and withdrawal.

Nonsense.

We will be scoring more goals against Morocco today.

Like 3 goals.

Flangelo12:
If I told you mu citizenship would you believe?

Na una hunger dey waya.

I intentionally don't want to travel and definitely not the US because of their gun laws.


But I am still a strong US fan because they are more accepting and liberal than the others.

Flangelo12:


You won't consider your fans in Nigeria?

US Nigeria fans don't really care about traveling.


Na ona wey dey always Yab, insult and attack the US - love processing visa for US.


While intentionally avoiding your beloved Russia, China and Iran

Let dem travel to Iran and Russia.

US this and that...

But any small thing, you don carry your life savings go do US visa, when you could have applied for that of Iran, Russia or China.

He won't do sh!t

Giving too much attention to irrelevants.


Next please...!

Very dumb topic

and even worse, on the front page


Next!

Sorry...

They look ugly on women.

Coconut head.

They never heed sound counsel.

But tomorrow, when they are threatened with deportation - they start screaming unfair, racism and other nonsense victim tags.

If you don't give people reason to label you wrongly - they simply won't.

Economic growth rate with taxes, with dwindling standard of living due to corruption.

nairalanda1:
I am not defending corruption, old man, I am attacking the assumption you yourself are making that because we are oil nation, we should live as the Saudis should.

Shame on you for saying I support corrupt leaders.

And read my post again, and you will see where I state clearly what we should do, and it includes fighting corruption.

I can't even remember if I started this argument with you.

But the person who brought Saudi into the discus initially was never me, if you understand my first post clearly.


So, if the other guy can bring Saudi to compare two very different system of government to justify whatever nonsense points he wanted.

It is only right that I do the same, including a better living like the Saudi.

Maybe, you will get the point this time.

Regardless, do have a nice day.

In some other countries, more revenue means better living indices.


In Nigeria, more revenue means more looting avenue with zero living indices to show for it.


Taxes otilo...

When you see these news, remember this is how your taxes will be looted, and you can't do nothing about it but will even pay more as looting fees.

Lithiumite:
Why would you compare potatoes with apples in the first place,you are nothing but a rabble rouser......simple arithmetic, divide the net revenues of both countries with their respective populations then see how misplaced your argument is,also on cheaper fuel, it's cheaper here in Nigeria than most oil producing countries.

But you brought the Saudi into the discussion.

You started the whole Saudi sh!t, you dumbo

But no, I shouldn't compare, when you are the one that started the comparison.


Someone really said you can't be mentally alright and support APC.

and for your population revenue bullshit, go read my reply to that Naira guy.

Done with you.

Flangelo12:
Respect to the Ford worker.

He deserves promotion.

Fk Trump.

You can't fawk Putin and Xi to their faces without consequences.

Brendaniel:
That's the U.S president being insulted face to face, yet the man who insulted him is still walking free, in Nigeria some people have been arrested for lesser insults over the internet against elected office holders and Tinubu supporters will tell you it is the best thing for the government under Tinubu to do...

They won't even try it in Russia and China.

CaptainZubi:
Thank God for the likes of Russia and China. God knows what the "world police" in the name of USA might have turned this world to. Russia and China have been in place to ensure that they don't overdo and checkmated wherever they can.

It would have been worse with Russia and China.

These are two countries that don't care about anything, not even human rights, except personal benefits.

At least, we get to enjoy the US human rights "hypocrisy" before any other thing.


Can't say the same about Russia and China.


The funny part about you guys is that, the West is still your travel first choice because of the "hypocritical" freedom and benefits, which Russia and China does not provide.

This is how all your taxes will be diverted, and you won't do nothing.

nairalanda1:
I am not a foot soldier for APC or OBi or atiku

So why can Saudis afford all these things?

Saudi Arabia has 40 million people, and produces 10million barrels per day...that means it earns in one year 220 billion dollars from oil sales assuming oil is sold at 60 dollars per barrel for the year, or per capita, each saudi gets 5500 dollars

Nigeria, has 230 million people, and produces 1.5 million barrels per day...that means it earns in one year 33 billion dollars...or per capita...143 dollars

That is why Saudi can afford all those things. For Nigeria to afford all that , we would need something like an income of 900 billion dollars-1.2 trillion dollars yearly. That is not possible on oil alone, but it is possible if, in addiiton to fighting corruption, nigeria runs an economy based on manufactured goods and services.

Or you can beg tinubu to take a loan of somewhere in the region of at least 800 billion dollars annually so that we can get all that...which would eventually leave us in debt to the tune of tens of trillions of dollars. The poor would suffer am the most.

You are still making same mistake that started all these back and forth.

The issue is not that we are as rich or sparsely distributed like Saudi Arabia - it is that we are uncountable for the little we are generating.

For the 1.5 Million daily barrel (even though Nigeria has the potential to produce up to 3 million barrel if not for corruption and oil theft) how much is being remitted.

$200 billion oil remittance theft probe from 2015 swept under the carpet.

Estimated daily 400k barrel lose.

Over $10 billion lose in 4 years...

and these are the ones in the public - you can then imagine the scale of the ones we don't even know.


Having said that, what are the impacts of the 'little' remitted to the government that will make citizens say...

"Ya, this is what the government has been doing to ease our life, and if we can generate more from other sources like taxes, we are confident that this government can do more".


You don't just jump into building houses in a swamp, you first fill it to standard, before starting the building.


Your government has failed in every single human indices...

Political thieves cases are dropped once they cross to the ruling party - people that loot the 'so called' little that could have make a great impact...

But no, it is because we don't pay taxes - and when we start paying taxes, we will start enjoying the dividends of good governance or we protest, amidst counter protest from your kind and political crooks waiting to steal more without consequences.

Shame on you guys...

Lithiumite:
Has the al sauds ever declared their assets for once,are they accountable to anyone,to the Saudis have the kind of political freedom you enjoy in Nigeria....Saudi Arabia is a homogeneous nation with one people,one religion,one philosophy compared to Nigeria,you refuse to support the current president who is trying is best to halt the decline in the economy and trying to set the country on a new trajectory just
because he isn't your tribe or because he bested your choice in 23.

Yes the decline from the obj/yard adua years started from GEJ.....Nigeria earned its highest oil revenues since the Gulf war era during the GEJ presidency but what did he achieve with all that money,he was infact even borrowing to pay salaries and subsidies.,buhari came to further tank the economy......what we are facing today is the result of the several years of rot in the economy and our problems didn't start today.

The funny part of this argument and comparison is that both has very different systems of government.

In a democratic system of government, officials must be publicly accountable including declaring their wealth for easy evaluation with after governance.

Comparing this with an Islamic monarchy system of government where a family is responsible for everyone's welfare is actually dump.

Even with the monarchy system where the government could have embezzled a huge amount of state wealth without any raising an eye brow - the Saudi citizen still enjoy the best of life such as:

- No income tax
- Free healthcare and education
- Heavily Subsidized fuel and food item.
- Good salaries and renumeration for most government workers.
- Housing assistance program.

The same oil running over 80% of their country.


But as I said before, two government systems with a democratic government having a better chance at governing legitimately due to the presence of checks and balances - sadly, reverse is the case.

Thanks to your kind who are their foot soldiers.

Tueh!

owobokiri:
Slow but steady..
It's slow death for Zelensky

Forget those.

Worse that will happen is that if they don't come to dialogue, it will spiral into something bigger that may threaten Russia existence on the long run.

Of course, with their illiterate Governor acting as a front for Oshomole.

NICOGRAVITY:
This is a complete misinformation.
That's a basket of fruit and the African man has a banana doesn't show anything wrong. It could be his choice of fruit. .should it be orange in his hand would you judge the picture?

It doesn't even matter.

He is allegedly a prisoner of war, and this is even ceremonious compared to how enemies (prisoners of war are treated) in other places.

He should even be happy that he is still alive.

Forget those Putin Psychophants who walks on their heads.

owobokiri:
Russia is dealing with Ukraine effectively

of course, for over 4 years now.

Family issue...

Except for every other person there that is not Muslim that I really pity.

Apart from that, this is clearly Muslim creation, and they have no reason to lament.


Next!

You mean end to northern IGR...

Never!

Ok...

Next!

Lithiumite:
Which nigerian leader is as rich as MBS of Saudi Arabia or the al maktooms of dubai......can you raise a finger and abuse the Saudi leaders as you always do tinubu here every second? What is the GDP of Saudi Arabia compared to ours, we don't come close,talk about their foreign reserves,we come no where close and you expect same lifestyle despite our huge heterogeneous population and insignificant income......when Nigerians start paying taxes,they will hold their govts more responsible and become more active in political processes.

Which of the Suudis loots national assets with reckless abandon and leave its citizens in penury?


How often your leaders genuinely declare their assets, even though they loot in the hundreds of billions.


Moreover, Nigerians will never hold any leader accountable till world ends because the leaders have your kind as foot soldiers will always be there to defend, pro-protest and even assume thouts to attack protest.


The tax is nonsense, and it will end up where the others have always end up.


Nigeria don't need more tax, it needs accountability.
