What about the other one?

The unknown gun girl

.

Una dey ment for this nairaland!

Tobijays:
nah, d only reason he is thinking about it is because of the all time EPL goals he could break! But if he leaves Shearer still remains top! Harry Kane banged in 30 league goals last season if he stays he is going to win the golden boot this season with the new style of play of TOT

And that too...

Gamesmart:
Why does it not warrant this treatment?

My brother, it doesn't take more than a week for any reasonable guy to recognise a girl who is stark broke. And when you go ahead to continue a relationship with that sort of female, it gets really ironical and irritating when you begin to complain that she's after your money. What were you expecting a broke girl to be after before, aside money? Your smiles?

When you fetch ants infested wood to your house, you certainly should be ready for the consequences.

Tchalalala:
Finally he can win something, but not being a pessimist, I doubt if he can thrive outside English league or Tottenham

You raised a valid point.

Having spent his entire playing career in the English top flight, doubts linger as to how he may adapt to the German environment, alongside his family.

If he has any reason to turn down this transfer move, that may well be the "why".

Location: Lagos.

Shop owner: Igbo woman.

Period of occurrence: Buhari's era.

Conclusively: Anyone looking at that girl can easily know she's broke and probably just hitting her 20s. That she spent the first fare after agreeing to meet, was wrong. But hunger has a way of twisting the senses. And her initial action wasn't enough to warrant this treatment over a bill that doesn't even look to be above 5K.

But my ultimate concern is, why is this video just reaching nairaland?

Stingy irresponsible men everywhere, there's no need for all these.

Why I no surprise say you dey here ?!

MrsTwrite:
It's his choice!

It's not his choice. It's the choice of the Nigerian masses and electorates who gave him the leadership mandate. He's subject to our specifications and demands, not the other way round. He's the employee of Abia State indigenes, so he is obligated to satisfying the needs of the people.

If the people insist he works and operates with Innoson vehicles, it amounts to scandalous audacity for him to do otherwise.

Throwback:
Illegal and futile actions.

The military will not dictate for the country that already has a democratically elected and legitimate President.

Bazoum remain the President of Niger and he has not dissolved his cabinet.

The Minority Arab must complete his 5yr tenure as President.

Go and tell this your story to the Junta in Niger republic.. .

Allow us to focus on the failures of your dusty Iragbiji failure!

Or better yet, go and help the Arab minority of Niger republic reinstate Bazoum as the President.

VeeVeeMyLuv:
It is very frightening. You are not alone

I have been having sleepless nights since this President assumed leadership of this country.

Omoh, if the Nigerian Judiciary decides to continue in their habitual corruption and lack of integrity with respect to the cases at the PEPT, na to find any means available leave this cesspit by next year!

henrimoto:
O'bob, na big man Pikin you be then o. Na una be the very first set wey first dey use MTN. 36K then, na when Naira still get value o.

I still can't believe I bought a Sim card for 36K as at over 18years ago, anytime I sit down to think about it. Omoh, it wasn't a joke!

Skyehigher1:
once they arrested him now they will continue to shouting marginalized

Please don't quote me with this kind of grammar again.. !!

MT:
You raised the bolded in your write up and I will like to learn from you.

Do you mind mentioning 2 or 3 of these economic measures that Tinubu Administration missed to force down parrallel market exchange rate down to the official rate?

I read that guy's subsequent request to this your comment, and much as he made some valid points, he failed to actually address the core root of this foreign exchange quagmire that we've been enmeshed in for well over a decade now.

- The CBN has failed and is continually failing in its fundamental role of being a watchdog and regulatory body over commercial banks and financial institutions. This is solely because the independence of the apex bank has long been compromised on the altar of political interests.

- The level of foreign currency racketeering that's going on between commercial banks and politicians/elites is so mind-boggling that about 80 percent of the foreign currencies in Nigeria are in the hands and bank accounts of these dubious individuals, to the detriment of tens of millions of Nigerians. If you walk into any major bank headquarter today as an ordinary citizen and try to purchase just a thousand dollars, you will end up with so many procedural bottlenecks that it might take you up to 3 days to get that money, after filling a litany of forms. This is not because the bank possibly doesn't have those dollars in their vaults, but because they're more interested in selling them to the elites, than giving them to you at the official rates.

- These politicians and elites are in turn, almost entirely the owners of the Bureau De Change agents you'll find spread all over the country. They buy these foreign currencies from commercial banks, give them to their black market agents to sell at increased rates to you and me. They succeed in creating an artificial scarcity of foreign currencies in the banks, so they can profit from selling the same currencies to you and me.

- Tinubu was first supposed to address the issue of foreign currency racketeering between banks and the elites, using the CBN as the disciplinary instrument. After which he was supposed to clamp down on BDC agents, eliminate the scourge entirely and only leave room for government monitored and regulated BDC outlets, strictly manned by the CBN. But he conveniently ignored this major source of the FX discontent because he is one of the major beneficiaries of FX racketeering and illegal BDC operations.

- Just imagine having a country whose economic flow as regards currency trades lies on speculations by "abokis" running the BDC market.. !

This is just one aspect of the solutions he ought to have implemented before rushing to completely eliminate subsidy. I can sit down to explanations on other positive measures, but time isn't a luxury I most often bask in.

VeeVeeMyLuv:
Did I just hear you say REVOLUTION? PLEASE don't make me laugh

Wake me up when Nigerians get serious. With this confused nationhood of Nigerians, it can never happen

I'm literally pained.

I may be having my modest earnings in foreign currencies, but the situation isn't the same for the people I care about. My monthly expenses have skyrocketed since the first week of June, because the economic collapse is impacting on the finances of my people, leading to more calls for assistance. Calls that cannot be ignored.

People who have lived along the middle class margin are now sliding helplessly into lack and fearful penury. Now I have to step up and assume responsibilities I ordinarily shouldn't have. And it hurts even more that Nigerians are suffering but still see the need to be reasoning along tribal and religious lines.

Like, are we cursed as a people? None of this is making any sense, walahi!

In 2015, I and my folks voted against Goodluck Jonathan, despite the fact we're Cross Riverians and share the same region with the man. He was giving his best to the economy, but the measure of corruption in his administration was beyond logical explanations, coupled with his lackadaisical attitude that was responsible for his failure to have set the operational template for the restructuring of this country. He failed us in that regard and we rallied against him cause we thought that Daura President was going to tackle corruption, even if he performed averagely in other aspects.

Yet, we're stuck in a rot today and Yoruba people are still boldly defending Tinubu, even in his evident failings..

Nokia Xpressmusic

The kind kuntus wey we don fvck for this life because of this Xpressmusic Nokia eh !

Even if you're not buying it for them, once Naija babes see this phone for your hand that year, knack dey be just one or two phone calls away.

And we invaded sefan.ru with this phone in search of games sha. One of my nigga use that site watch porn tire!

henrimoto:
..That slim sweet phone. Na bigger boys phone then.

See that no. 8 and 9, ....na very strong phones them be then.

Hmnnn .. how time and things changes.

Before the Nokia 3310, there was this very strong Alcatel button phone with blue fonts. Got it for 29K when I was around 14years, and I even paid in two instalments. The MTN sim I put in it was about 36K .

Omoh, one of the best things Obasanjo ever did for Nigeria was deregulating the telecom industry and giving room for competition.

So going by your narrative other oil producing countries that have functional refinery/refineries been run by their government are not doing it right because government has no business running business?
Even when electricity was privatized what happened ? The problem is the maladministrative peeps in our FG and all strata of leadership positions.

Wittyness[/quote]Please, kindly mention three democratic countries with self-sufficient domestic petroleum supply that have their governments wholely owning and running refineries.

Apart from 11, 14 and 15, I used the rest .

Abeg where is my sexy "Bird"?

Blaze14k:
Why is this coming now when the judgement of election in tribunal is very close?

Has no correlation whatsoever with the election tribunal and its pending cases.

Righthussle:
How will this move affect the price of garri in the market?

It won't affect the price of garri in the market.

But it will further deplete the small money left in you people's FX reserve. And if Tinubu is unfortunate enough to have an Attorney General like Abubakar Malami, the payments will be duplicated so more money can be stolen and loaded in underground warehouses.

Angelfrost:
Fuel prices
Gas prices
Transport fares
Food prices
Bride prices
Olosho prices
Healthcare prices
Drug/Medication prices
Etc...

The poor have been choking for at least 2 weeks now... Now, the poor are about to drop dead.

I ask for the umpteenth time: Does this nation have enough security and prisons??!

The looming revolution and anarchy will be historic if things don't change positively and fast... With the way he is testing the patience of the North with this Niger matter, it might start there... Adamawa was just a test drive.

I promise you, I can't wait for that revolution!

wittywriter:
Selling isn't a good business strategy.


Wittyness

The refineries should be sold with the Federal Government retaining a 20percent stake in each of them. Private companies should be expressly allowed to fix and run them, with the NNPCL being a regulating body between the private investors and the Nigerian state.

Again, government has no business running business, but una no go hear!

Any Nigerian sincerely waiting on the Port Harcourt refinery to begin crude processing by december, is a clown who just fancies being fooled.

Angelfrost:
Tinubu is making prophets out of naysayers...!

They all said Naira will depreciate from #1000 to $1 by December this year... Seems CBN is way ahead of them.

At this rate, it will be #1500 to $1 by Christmas... This is damning and historic.

If you'd followed all my nairaland comments from the very week Tinubu disposed subsidy and floated currencies, I vehemently hammered on this very outcome. I tried to explain how this very FX harmonisation policy was going to be very detrimental to the naira, which might possibly result to the collapse of the economy, because you cannot float a currency whose availability you cannot guarantee to keep up with public demand.

Unfortunately, the usual APC propagandists came at me in droves, calling me all sort of names, telling me how I knew next to nothing compared to their Chicago drug baron who they claim had a super degree in Economics..

Hell, I gave the Economy 6 months from July to be on its knees. Looks like I was even being too liberal with the reality on ground. Fuel marketers will import the next batch of petrol by this month end or early September, and there's no way in hell pump prices are not going to rise, given the prevailing circumstances.

Absolutely nothing cheap lasts in Nigeria!




Absolutely nothing, this country is an experiment to test human endurance!

Nigeria is a contest ground for all the demons in hell to show off their degrees of wickedness and propensity for evil.

We're in agreement..

I saw it on a friend's status and I laughed hard.


Whatever Trouble Tinubu is brewing, it won't be just Nigeria with Niger .ALL AFRICA countries hates Nigeria and will be involved directly or indirectly!


You leave fire wey dey burn your country,go find trouble for another place.

Every sane Nigerian knows Tinubu is not well in the head.

WildChild00:
How will your country now earn foreign exchange Africa waking up

And by your reasoning, giving express liberty to Western countries to exploit natural resources, is the only way African countries can earn FX?

Omoh, una dey sha try to dey carry big heads up and down wey sense no dey inside.. !

Olatunbosun Oladapo is IPOB..

And the punch newspaper is their propaganda medium meant to tarnish Tinubu's sterling government.

We the Patriots of Nigeria who have seen the gains in Ebola's mediocre governmental policies and decisions so far, reject this fake news in its totality.

Lol.

Very weird thread.
