People in some finance firms(small staffing but heavy balance sheet), tech guys in bank

big telecom (MTN pays heavy),remote jobs

Multinationals, larfarge, Cadbury.etc

European/american firms/companies offering services in Nigeria (avoid Indian, Lebanese. Chinese will pay but long hours, hardly respect holidays and weekends).

Remote jobs if you can get it from here. (Stiff competition from Asian countries, India, Pakistani. You must be lucky and good)

Oil and gas guys. Those ones are O.G for income raking in.

Person wey we hear say dey pay inec for results sheets.

. They don see the handwriting. 10k n 2 derica of rice will not work this time.

Lagos and Abuja or PH maybe expensive because of rent and if you really have high income you would be able to afford to go off grid so electricity costs would not be significant. We are not talking of a luxury lifestyle here but comfortable living. Flying in Nigeria today is a luxury and it is even more expensive here than in high income countries. The most senior civil servants are not paid ten million naira per annum after decades of service and you are saying thirty million naira is not enough for you in an average Nigerian city? Can a senior civil servant in any state be described as poor?

They are talking about income earners you are mentioning civil servants? Like are you serious?

Most Civil servants are glorified paupers nowadays, unless the ones part of office rackets or contract inflation, diversion of gov funds etc.

Directors in ministries payroll earn about 1.2mil/m after over 25 years of service and lots of politicking. How do they pay their children's fees home and abroad, build houses support nuclear and extended families on 1.2 million Mind you the deputy cadre is about half of that amount.

Civil service is a cesspool of corruption that no government can clean up. You can't use them as a yardstick.
Back to the topic, 15 million is an okay income nowadays, it only gives you enough freedom to deploy your mind into earning better income. But you can't afford to be comfortable on 15 million, you will be shocked in no time.

Something tells me this guy will be picked up by Efcc or DSS soon on one charge.

This ones were allowing Akpabio, Bamidele and Yayi do whatever they like in the Senate.

Eye don peel, they av all been sold a dummy by the Bourdillon guyman. Atleast two Governors will also experience heartbreak.

Cashio:
Bro, I have two ACs in two rooms plus a standing AC in my parlor plus a fridge and a freezer. Before 2024, these appliances used to run almost 24/7 and it costs me around 3k every five days.
Baba, as at today, If I run those appliances like I used to, it costs me 5k daily. Right now, my parlor AC got spoilt and I was even happy it did so I'll save cost from there. The second AC I have disconnected that one since. My bedroom AC, na off and on I dey do am now. Money wey I dey use sub light alone is more than my annual rent.
Since this year, na only once I don sub DStv. Next will be during world cup.
17k to fill 12.5kg gas.
Before 2024, I used to cook soup and stew with 15k-20k weekly. Right now, na 50k weekly and we still have to squeeze the portioning and the volume of water to ensure it lasts one full week.

Like, bro, I am practically living like a pauper right now. Person wey dey go eatery tow or three times weekly before go chop varieties even as food dey house. Now like this, I dey even dodge to komot with my wife make she nor go see wetin she wan buy.

My head dey pain me bro.

Tinubu economic policies make u feel you are lagging behind but the truth is most people are suffering worse than you.
Rather than face the government they face God and keep praying for a better day while working twice as hard. It's the situation most Nigerians are in right now and others keep adapting like a frog in hot water.

He has seen the defeat ahead.

No inflation in Nigeria. We are all standing on Tinubu's cvvk.
NBS are becoming Obidients.

Kukutente23:
So his offence was joining his colleagues to oust an unpopular speaker

Just imagine how these folks are running Lagos

That's the the Baba sope kind of politics,The man decides their destiny.

. How civil servants dey cope sef.

Are they expected to go to work everyday at 1400/l?
How do they feed their families with all these inflation?
Why are they all quiet?

tonesky:
Wi*e has told Nigerians he will replicate the rigging of 2023 in Rivers State in Abuja. He used local touts, securiy agencies, and vote suppression in areas of oppositions stronghold. He specifically used aspirants to state house of assembly to rig at the ward levels. Abuja people should take note.

General elections are not so easy to rig. The Governor needs alot to be in in his favour asides money to achieve the rigging. Even inec people know when a particular constituency or state is impossible to rig, hence they rather save their neck than allow the money destroy them.

Not much rigging can happen in Abuja and Lagos except vote buying. can't say same for other states

You Decided to be a boy boy to Tinubu so why the complaina again?

Tinubu now needs to rely on the unreliable over pampered politicians in Lagos to deliver Lagos massively to counter this Makinde move.

Tinubu getting anything close to 50 percent in Lagos will be sheer luck or rigging.

I see Tinubu losing this election.North is heavily fragmented now southwest is getting splitted.

South south will be shared also, no block vote from anywhere aside South East that will queue massively behind Obi and North east that Atiku always wins.

CoolAmbience:
Tinubu can't leave Atiku out!

What will be the basis for that?

He should not even imagine it.

That would amount to disenfranchising the entire North.

Nigerians are entitled to democratic options. It was the same North that fought for him when he was going to be disenfrachised by a section.

If Nigerians do not want him, then he has to go!

Nobody owns Nigeria. We should stop encouraging such power drunk tendencies before Nigeria collapses.

This isn't about whether Yorubas are strategic or not. Did Tinubu do well? How many people ever get the opportunity to be Councilors in their lifetime, let alone president.

He should not have doled out the huge cutback earned from subsidy removal to State Governors. Most of them are very irresponsible people. He should have deployed the funds directly to completely overhaul critical sectors such as security, power, agriculture and transportation. This would have created millions of sustainable jobs for Nigerians.

He spent his entire 4 years politicking with these governors who know next to nothing about governance. He is a bold president by removing subsidy, however he could not translate that bold leadership into transformative impact for Nigerians. I really thought that he would.

Same funds the Governors are cutting out a percentage to fund his re-election.
They all went on road construction spree, buying vehicles for political acolytes and other shenanigans. some are even building airports in non viable states.

Human capital index extremely low, hunger everywhere from inflation, insecurity extremely high and the press which is the fifth realm suffocated and extremely compromised to only spread the narrative of the ruling party.

The people are waiting, not every state vote buying and result tampering will work.lets see the Nyesom Wike magic all the Governors want to perform.

Sorry Mr Abdullahi. The person that gave wind to your sail has abandoned ship.

Even Tinubu's people are confused. Same direction update since 2023.
We need another lamba, election is months away.

Hedonisco:
This Deji guy is just an annoying irritant, not much different from the Reno Omonkey fellow.

Everyone knows that without rigging, Tinubu can only win 7 states in Nigeria: Ogun State, Oyo State, Osun State, Ekiti State, Ondo State, Kwara State, and Kogi State. No more. No less.

Tinubu win in Lagos? How is that possible? Is like saying Tinubu will win in Abuja.
Inec sef go fear rig Lagos blatantly. He can't win in Oyo also unless Makinde plays ball to protect himself from Efcc harassment peradventure Tinubu retains the presidency.

Ekiti, Ondo and Osun ( win or lose, Adeleke is a tight corner now and will take a deal to remain as governor) is more like his forte in southwest.

Eriokanmi:
The last time I checked, Wike is a pdp man, called to serve in an apc-led government in appreciation of his efforts in scuttling the 2023 presidential election in rivers and Nigeria by extension, in favour of Mr tinubu. Since the apc, which is not even his party had already cleared fubara, wike's downfall has begun. He cannot meddle with the apc affairs as a card-carrying member of the pdp at that level.

There are several reasons this apc government is not getting it right. You can never bribe your way into power and think God will back you up. You go apply your wisdom taya and even exhaust it, without any solution. That's what is happening in Nigeria today to the apc. Even Jonathan the clueless had a better government and successful term. Nobody is talking now that crude prices had favoured the apc for years, yet with nothing to show

Great insight. The administration's performance is terrible.

The only thing working well under your husband is the subjugation of opposition and reduction of standard of living of Nigerians.

givedemwotowoto:
Presidential election is different from every other election in Nigeria.

Most Nigerians only vote in the Presidential election.

Tinubu lost Lagos at the Presidential election while Sanwo Olu won the same Lagos comfortably

Peter Obi had zero LG chairman in Abuja in 2023 yet he won Abuja by a wide margin that none of his opponents secured up to 25%

I have asked you before, who are you supporting, why are you afraid to mention your candidate?

Sanwo won Lagos comfortably Which Lagos?
Same one Oro was summoned?
Same one non indigenes were barred from polling units?
Same one sanwo olu was was attending Sunday service in harvester church to appease the youth?

Same election APC militia arm(agberos) were unleashed on non apc voters Oshodi, surulere, ojo, amuwo, eti osa, ibeju lekki and many more?

Same election that inec reflections became that of the party that was declared winner of the presidency?
Those are just preambles of all that transpired

Validated:
Natasha Akpoti should quickly dump PDP and join NDC to disgrace Yeye Bello

NDC won't work in Kogi...vote buying and result tampering too pronounced.

Saturnalia:
I can bet my balls that he is one of the sponsors of Boko Haram ravaging his State.

You go talk the one wey go make you go chop watery beans soon.

Stupid talk...most Britons will never see 50k pounds in their entire lifetime.

100k pounds is over 250 million now.
Half of that in treasury bills alone will take care of your need without needing a job again.

125 million at 17 percent per annum is almost 20million per annum free money.

Most Britons will leave that depressing island for 2 percent of that money.

What stopped them from challenging him after the first shot? They were cowards and complicit.

When did police work become a zombie institution? They are a rogue squad killing and raiding innocent people at will.
The one that gave him a bullet is just as guilty as Nuhu that did the shooting.

skultrick:
My landlord has increased my rent by 108%. So instead of paying 1.2m I will now pay 2.5m for a 2bed.

That's above my budget. So I am moving out.

I wanted ask, is it okay to inform the landlord a month before rent expires that I am not renewing or is a month too short?

Rent expires July ending, so it okay to inform in May or June?

Thank you.

If the apartment ticks all your boxes, discuss with the landlord on getting a discount on the new increment considering you have never owed him rent your good behaviour and use of his property.

If he is adamant on the new rent, then check around and get quotes for similar houses in that neighborhood, then make your decision to leave or step down to a mini flat.

Tinubu giving Atiku's bagmen sleepless night.

È Pele Mr Ayeni.

Akpakomiza2:
So what is the pathway for Atiku

Atiku will inherit a chunk of Buhari's Northern support, he has a strong reach in North east and always delivers most of the states there.

Also since Buhari is gone, Northwest is open for taking by either atiku or kwankwaso (most popularNorthern politician today). Tinubu will make do with what his APC governors can galvanise for him.

OgwuEgo:
To win Abuja is impossible, Abuja usually shows the mood of the nation in 2019 PDP won Abuja in 2023 Labour Party won Abuja. Elections can't be rigged here, too many enlightened people.

Yea. I know, reason why I laugh at the prospect of Wike replicating his River state election method in Abuja.

What's uncertain about suspension? They succeeded in reducing the party to just 2 governors and just a handful of lawmakers.
They should go to APC and get a red carpet treatment.
Wike suppose collect all the ministerial slot for south south. His level of Sabotage of PDP was unprecedented even in Tinubu's inner circle.

Alas, too bad he will soon be dumped in the dustbin of political history.
