Its actually a way to short term gain and long term lose.

Repeat business will be rare for that seller.

There must be w regulatory body for this sort of exploitation. If we all report it to them, mtn will need to stop.

Also consider posting this on mtn's twitter so more people see it.

Don't you bother asking your boss what you should do with the carvings he told you to put in the corner, and just go burn them.

When the man comes back for his 500kg bag of carvings, you will then truly understand if what you "can only find when you visit a native doctor" is your own superstitious belief or not.

NNPC boss, Mele Kyari, recently assured that the Port Harcourt refinery will commence operations this August.
I was looking for where they said Port Harcourt Refinery will begin operating in April 2024, and found Port Harcourt Refinery Begins Operations in December 2023, and also that Port Harcourt Refinery Begins Operation in July 2024.

I guess when they lie to us long enough we will eventually know them for the liars they are if we don't already.

Family › Re: Is This A Spell? by budaatum: 3:33pm On Aug 08, 2024
Its not a spell. Your brother is just greedy and can not cut his size to his cloth, and I won't be surprised if he is fat due to overeating (though it might be his income is too small to feed him).

He needs to reduce his consumption and go on a money management course. In the meantime buy him a money management book.

If you truly believe there are subsidies for billionaires then you should also do it and get the subsidy and handouts
Your argument is absurd. Here is me arguing for poor kids to be fed, but you would rather i pocket the handouts and subsidy myself.

Is it so impossible for you to think some billionaires would rather not get subsidy and handouts and would want kids fed with that money instead?

Not everyone selfishly only thinks of their own pockets, or mouths.

And why not the alternative to "become a billionaire so you can get your own subsidy and handout"?

Why not just scrap subsidies and handouts for billionaires and feed the poor and the hungry kids instead?

You are free to run away when you are unable to defend your position. America is a prosperous nation and the desired destination of billions because everyone can become anything they want if they work hard and put what it takes not someone in govt striving to have equality in outcomes

My favourite party is one that promotes personal responsibility, you kill what you eat, you cater to the children you bring to the world, you plan for your old age when you are working. You dont give birth because you want the society to raise them for you. You work hard to get what you want out of life. Not blaming and pointing fingers at someone holding anyone down

Its personal responsibility
The position you are arguing is not Kamala's position and nor was it cococandy's. It was some absurd imaginary position you cooked up and then asked to be defended.

Just on reading it the absurdity of claiming Kamala wants everyone to have the same outcome she wants for herself jumped out at me, since that might at least mean dump gets the same outcome she gets at the next election and must share the White House with her, which I'm certain you'd agree she doesn't want.

Opportunity is not the same as outcome, and feeding hungry kids does not make them necessarily as opportuned as children whose parents can't feed them. Some just don't think the future of a child should depend on the vagaries of the parent, and would gladly feed children whose parents are addicts or in jail or are just too poor to feed their own children. But I guess some would rather the child suffers for the sins of their parent.

@ the bolded
That’s the problem. Facts & figures don’t matter. Just keep regurgitating lines without evidence.

Rishi Sunak (CONSERVATIVES) is "the most liberal prime minister we've ever had on immigration".

Guess who made the quote above?
If you know who made that quote, you will see why your argument above falls like a pack of cards.
You might as well quote Kamala Harris to prove Biden is racist too, when they will tell you it's debate rhetoric.

Some of us can never forget the anti-immigrant laws going back to Margaret Thatcher, who made it possible for white commonwealths to continue to come here while black commonwealths were not, or Johnson's comments about burqas, and all their black washing wouldn't change that, not even after they reluctantly nominated Sunak as their leader whom they rejected until Truss blew them up.

No one is going to build a factory in the US to make low-value products, such as T-shirts. It’s all focused on complicated high-value products, such as motor vehicles, chips, electrical and electronic products, heavy components and equipment, etc.

I saw a post about CBN governor saying that Nigeria GDP will grow over a trillion dollars equivalent to 1.5 quadrillion naira . The economy should grow naturally not printing excessive cash.
What you saw the CBN saying does not mean they will print 1.5 quadrillion naira, lol.

If the do that, we'd need a wheel barrow to carry the naira to buy a loaf of bread, as the rest of your post rightly pointed out.

Farage will not resign, and the party he leads can't exactly remove the whip. It does put egg on his face though, and will haunt him going forward.

no one is talking about US here....Nigeria was better than a lot of countries that are better than Nigeria today. that's the point I made
That is not disputed, but "naira was bigger than dollar at a time" is not indicative of better, and China and Japan are not countries we were ever better than.

A pound was less than 70 kobo in my lifetime, and no one would with a straight face would argue Nigeria was better than UK. In fact, during that period, the first question I asked on arrival at the Apapa Port was, "when are we leaving this hell". My depression started when I was informed this was our destination.

The liars that set the nation on fire!

Nigel Farage said he was misled by Andrew Tate and “other folk with big followings” into incorrectly suggesting that the man charged with the Southport killings “was known to security services”.

The Reform UK leader engaged with misleading information that emerged in the wake of the tragic stabbings in the north west which had been allowed to spread across multiple platforms and was amplified by high-profile social media accounts.

Suggestions that the attacker was a Muslim extremist targeting little girls who had come on a boat from Syria and was being monitored by security services became widely shared by people, sparking protests which have now entered their seventh day.
