No. He should have gone to Kano to buy his onions so that it could be cheaper.
It's always an option. He should also walk there to eliminate transport cost.

budaatum:
According to the information we all are reading in this thread, beans are cheaper in Lagos than it has otherwise been.

You after all need to add transportation cost to get it from 5k in the north to whatever you sell it in Lagos, and you'd likely add the cost of your shop in Lagos plus staff to that to make any profit from your effort.

I do have a suggestion though. You can always travel from Lagos to the north to buy a painter at cheap 5k. And you probably wouldn't need to pay so much more than 5k if you walked there and back.

And so?

Lick your wounds.
What wounds? That I'm not being killed in a holocaust, or that I'm not rejoicing that some distant others are?

Point is, this organisation is anti-Islam, so I'd rather take whatever they claim with a spoonful of salt just as I would what Hamas claims. I do have telly though, and can see the ruble Palestine has been turned into, and can empathise with those who live there.

I think I'd rather pray for myself, thank you very much. And rather than give my money to a g.o. I'd rather invest it in mine and my children's education instead of fueling some g.o.'s plane.

Oh! You already said, lol.

what are you trying to do - pretend to be a professional?

you want to put away your tinker toys and play with the big boys?

law and legal agreements exist across all strata of industry

IT, engineering, banking , medicine

to an obvious unschooled lying illiterate like you - law ends at you being bailed from the police

if today, a company, a nation state, a county, a local government is drafting policy or laws on cybersecurity a lawyer with a working knowledge of cybersecurity will stream line the process.

i understand if this flies over the empty space between your ears - because you dont understand how binding legal agreements on technical matters require people well versed in both law and the technical subject matter
He would ignorantly claim a medical doctor is wasting time studying law too because its not something he's ever heard of.

She can't exactly believe in God like Nigerians do, or should I say Yorubas, since she claims she's not Nigerian.

You can't exactly believe manna will fill your belly from heaven in a land where most rely on the sweat off their brow.

She has ignorantly brought her stupid Nigerian tribalism to UK politics and ruined any chance of becoming UK prime minister in my opinion, because she's like reintroducing the tribal bigotry between the Irish and Scottish and Welsh and English that United Kingdom hoped it had cured itself of.

Is it from the mama selling onions outside your house who bought from the person in the nearby market who bought from the person who bought from Mile 12?

He did rape her technically, but not rape as tying her down as you suggested. There is a clear difference, but I'm aware its far too technical for you to comprehend.

The judge did not say it was not rape! He sentenced him for it.

And the school which taught him the nonsense they taught him will be sanctioned and likely be shut down.

1. COVID. More died under Biden than under Trump
I know this is far to complex for you to comprehend since you refused to pay for a quality education.

Still.

As of September 2024, COVID-19 was responsible for 1.2 million deaths in the U.S., with the majority of those deaths occurring during Biden’s presidency.
However, death toll figures under both the Trump and Biden administrations aren’t directly comparable because Biden has been in office for a longer period of time since the virus emerged compared to Trump. Once we account for the duration of each administration, the weekly COVID-19 mortality rate was lower on average during the period coinciding with Biden’s presidency.

Steadily bringing inflation down after his Infrastructure Reduction Act. and omnibus spending bills sent it up?
What caused inflation in USA?

AI Overview

Inflation in the United States has been caused by a number of factors, including:

Supply chain disruptions
The COVID-19 pandemic caused supply chain issues, which led to backlogs of work orders for goods and services. This created shortages and increased demand for certain products, which contributed to inflation.

Energy prices
Energy prices, such as those for oil and natural gas, increased, making production more expensive.

Increased wages
Higher wages can contribute to inflation, as companies may raise prices to offset higher labor costs.

Import costs
When importing goods becomes more expensive, companies may pass on some of the costs to consumers.

Demand shifts
During the pandemic, demand shifted from services to goods. Stimulus programs also gave shoppers extra cash to spend.

Home prices
The cost of buying or renting a home has been a major driver of inflation, due to slow new homebuilding and older Americans not moving out of their homes as often.

Inflation is when prices increase across a sector or the economy as a whole. Economists consider an annual inflation rate of around two percentage points to be a sign of pricing stability.
Not that you'd be educated by all this, and neither would you post any credible source that claims Biden or the Infrastructure Reduction Act caused inflation.

Foreign Affairs › Re: Explaining The Positions Of German President And German Chancellor by budaatum: 6:30pm On Dec 14, 2024
Nigeria tried this.

We had Tafawa Balewa as Prime Minister of Nigeria from 1 October 1960 – 15 January 1966, while Nnamdi Benjamin Azikiwe was President. We ended up with Johnson Aguiyi-Ironsi as Military head of state, and a civil war, and further military rule that lasted till 1979.

While I prefer the parliamentary system of democracy to presidential, I doubt we'd accept a president that is selected like Germany choses its.

The president is elected for a term of five years by secret ballot, without debate, by a specially convened Federal Convention which mirrors the aggregated majority position in the Bundestag (the federal parliament) and in the parliaments of the 16 German states.

Christianity Etc › Re: No Deportation Order Against Me, Says Nigerian-born Pastor Tobi Adegboyega by budaatum: 4:52pm On Dec 14, 2024
He must think God will hear his prayers and he won't be deported after committing a crime.

Adegboyega who founded SPAC Nation church said he arrived in the UK aged 25 in 2005 on a visitor’s visa but failed to legalise his stay.

The pastor said he assumed his family was handling his immigration paperwork.

“I lost track of time,” he said, referring to the nearly decade-long delay in applying to regularise his immigration status.

The 44-year-old reportedly lost his battle against deportation from the UK over an alleged £1.87 million fraud.

An immigration tribunal ruled that Adegboyega be deported to Nigeria after investigations exposed misuse of funds by his church.

I take photos of people at events often. Its a hobby of mine, and I don't charge for it as you'd only get a digital copy if you want it. You can go print it yourself.

What's annoying is people handing you their phone to take photos of them. I just show my full hands and walk off.

If I did it for work you are not forced to pay, but yes, the beautiful photos of beautiful you will be added to my wall.

It has reduced. There was a time when anytime you come to this forum it's either Nigerians are told they are zoo people, diasporians and diaspora wannabes term nigeria" that country"
Or the accent changers.
Not everybody though.
Actually, it is some Nigerians who inadvertently call themselves zoo people, and they don't seem to realise they are calling themselves animals.

Least, that's what they mean when I read them.
