I was once in ur shoe
Struggled with it for over 13yrs
Even as a married man when wife is away
But when I did the following:
I drew closer to GOD and started serving in a unit devotedly
Took fast of consecration too
God busy with work

That was all
Try this steps, it works

God will give you grace man

The results were doctored in such a way that . . .
I disagree!

Any reasonable person who wants to doctor results of the last election will not doctor a mere 8,794,726 votes out of a legible 93,469,008 registered voters. And the sooner we start being honest with ourselves, the sooner we'd find a remedy.

First, well done for seeking help here, though it is not the right place.

You were brought up in an unhealthy home where you were abused as a child, and should seek professional psychiatric help before you are completely destroyed.

I've read government has threatened private companies with imprisonment if they don't pay the 70k minimum wage, but I of course don't believe they will carry out the threat.

They sure will not find it easy to imprison a person who pays their driver or house help less than 70k, and they will close their eyes to local governments who can't pay it neither.

The problem with this your train of thought is that most of those "countries" actually produce something hence their economy can afford to tax that much
Yours do not even have a welfare scheme that does not involve sharing rice😄😄
So yeah let them keep charging you oh😄
Smh
The government does not give a flying fuq about my welfare! And yes, we don't produce anything. But that will not stop the government from taxing me.

In fact, the fact the government does not care about my welfare is the reason they will tax me even more. Government does after all need my tax to pay themselves millions and buy presidential planes and treat themselves in UK and send their kids to Harvard, especially now that income from crude oil is drying up.

As a side, less than 8 million elected the current president while I couldn't bother to vote. I ignorantly believed my vote does not count so I stupidly refused to cast it. Now listen to me wailing ebi npa wa, lol.

The sooner I wake up from my slumber and realise that my government does not care about my welfare, the sooner I might start taking more interest on election day so fools don't elect my government.

You started your entire write up with you agree that the government is incompetent and then ended by saying the promise of an incompetent government in your last paragraph.

Are you saying you believe the promises of an incompetent government?
No, Brendaniel, I am not saying I believe the promises of an incompetent government, since an incompetent government can not fulfil its promises. Besides, the incompetent government did not promise the astronomical increase in prices that I have predicted.

What I am saying is an incompetent government will introduce inefficiencies which will be reflected in price increases, so expect things to cost a whole lot more than they currently do.

Our incompetent government has already threatened private industry with sanctions if they do not pay the 70k minimum wage. That increase will be reflected in prices across the board.

Just think. A private school teacher who was paid 30 or so k will now have to he paid 70k. How much do you think school fees will need to rise to cover that increase. Ditto, gari and transport, and wages, eventually.

Budaatum. Oxford research finds Hydroxychloroquin is helpful on COVID.

https://journals.plos.org/plosmedicine/article?id=10.1371/journal.pmed.1004428
You obviously did not go to school, so I don't expect you to understand what you read.

Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) has proved ineffective in treating patients hospitalised with Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), but uncertainty remains over its safety and efficacy in chemoprevention.

Panadol is likely as effective in treating patients not hospitalised with Coronavirus Disease 2019, but it wouldn't be used to treat hospitalised patients now, would it!?

Here's an anecdote. I once fell ill, and during diagnosis, Guillain-Barré syndrome was suspected and I was given an intravenous treatment that was 3 doses. After the second dose it was determined I did not have Guillain-Barré syndrome, and the drug I was being given was pointless. I searched the drug online and found a dose was £500. I had received 2 doses, which was 1k, and so told them not to bother with the third. But they insisted I take all 3 as it would do me more good than harm. All I could think was, what if I was paying for this? £1500 down the drain!

Have you paid the school fees of those you are responsible for? I don't want them to turn out stupid like you please.

I may not really have had any problem with subsidy removal if the government had done their homework before removing it, I think I've explained this thing to you before...
Our government is incompetent. No argument there.

Before subsidy removal, the World Bank and co did numerous studies on the impact of subsidy removal, and money was given, which the government should have added to to help alleviate the impending sufferings, but here we are.

Fact is, government can not continue to afford to subsidise, and fuel and most other things are bound to become a lot more expensive.

Tinubu said the Nigeria economy will be in trillions, and this is how we will get there. Minimum wages of ₦70k is likely to be ₦700k in a very few years time and it still would not make fuel any cheaper.

After setting it free what happens next?
Next, it is sold at the price the seller wants, and buyers have a choice whether to buy or not.

We will have to ensure there is no prize fixing of course, and that sellers don't collude to set prices, which, considering iya loja setting gari price in the market might not be so easy, but its still the way to go.

And before you ask, yes, it will be more expensive than it currently is, just as free market has made the dollar dearer.

Made me think to add the following to show the lies some live.

Ruby Franke, a mother of six who gave online parenting advice via a popular YouTube channel, was sentenced to four prison terms of between one and 15 years each, on aggravated child abuse charges on Tuesday.

Franke, 42, who had 2.3 million followers on her now-deleted 8 Passengers video channel, was arrested in the southern Utah city of Ivins last August after her malnourished 12-year-old son, with open wounds and bound with duct tape, climbed out of a window at the home of Jodi Hildebrandt, owner of a self-improvement counseling business, to ask for food and water from a neighbor.

CrimeDominique Pélicot Admits He's A Rapist by budaatum(op): 2:19pm On Sep 17, 2024
Dominique Pélicot tells French trial: ‘I am a rapist’

A 71-year-old man accused of drugging his wife so he and scores of strangers could assault her has told a French court: “I am a rapist,” as he returned to the dock after illness.

“I am a rapist, like the others in this room,” Pélicot said, referring to the 50 other defendants in the mass trial – men he allegedly recruited online to rape his then wife, Gisèle Pélicot.

He added: “I am guilty of what I did – I say to my wife, my children, my grandchildren … I regret what I’ve done and I ask for forgiveness, even if it’s unforgivable.” He added: “She [Gisèle Pélicot] did not deserve this.”

Alluding to the other accused men sitting on benches in court, he said “they all knew” he was inviting them to rape her. “I am guilty of what I did,” Pélicot said, saying he admitted “the facts in their entirety”.
