People are talking this eeediot too is talking? |
Trump will be in office by then. I doubt he will endorse her especially as he needs an ally in his trade battle with China |
Quest7777:You are not supposed to be comfortable on minimum wage. |
Fineman2:Trump is undefeatable! |
Always attempting to create laws they cannot enforce |
A man is supposed to get wiser with age. This one gets more foolish with age. |
I hope Obi knows that he is a major contributor to the decline in the Nigerian economy being the largest importer of basic household items destroying local manufacturers And exporting jobs abroad without ever Thinking of backward integration for his numerous imported products and establishing a factory here |
nairaman66:Your post illustrates the problem with Nigeria. We always find someone to blame but ourselves. The people you mentioned above as well as politicians and government officials, the police etc etc etc are first and foremost All NIgerians!!! You complaining today will be in a position of influence tomorrow whether as a teacher, a gateman, an imam a pastor a politician, a civil servant and 95% chance you will become the problem you complain about today because you are a Nigerian!! |
Abeg who is this one? |

This country is a country of useless people! |
naturalman:Very senseless comment. Dangote Refinery products are priced at an international benchmark. 1) he doesn’t have to sell his products in Nigeria 2) he will make more money not doing so. 3) there is always an international market for his products 4) it is better for him to bybass Nigeria and our wahala. 5) anybody who thinks he can “show” Dangote should not waste his time lobbying international investors. Dangote is bigger than Nigeria like it or not…..at least for now. Dangote is Nigeria’s no1 ambassador. His voice is vastly greater, he has more clout, what happens to him is more important to the global business /investment community that anything any govt official says or does. If anybody thinks he is trying to get at Dangote, let him know he is getting at Nigeria, you kill Dangote, you kill Nigeria. It doesn’t matter how he got to where he is, he is there now. Again Dangote is bigger than Nigeria. Dangote is not Aliko Dangote, Dangote is an institution and a pillar of Nigeria. You cannot destroy Dangote without destroying Nigeria. If you want to attack Dangote, learn from him…..play the fool until you are bigger than him. |
Enemies of the country are beginning to reveal themselves. Why would his products not contain more sulphur when he has to import his crude from countries with high sulphur because you refuse to give him Nigerian low sulphuric crude? See them o, they are revealing themselves. How can someone say we must have imported crude for energy security. These are the people that want importation to continue. Na them be this o!! Take note of the name. |
gidgiddy:It’s not your fault. |
gidgiddy:You (and others saying so) likely were not alive then or too young to know anything. In those days you could disappear for what you just wrote. |
Bobloco:So long as you keep your protests to the SE and don’t think you can use protests as a guise to destroy infrastructure in the SW like you did during Endsars! |
Paraman: MASTAkiLLAh:she is from Bayelsa |
God1000:Shhh don’t tell Mikel Obi. |
OkpaNsukkaisBae:Borrow yourself some sense. He isn’t an ordinary party member, he was the chief whip. If you have grievances you handle it internally. Can you have a general whose commanding officer is criticizing the battle plan openly? It is not done! Even That former NW chairman that has been criticizing up and down left the party before he started criticizing precisely because he was a former national vice chairman. Even El Rufai who has legitimate grounds to be aggrieved has kept mute plublicly. To whom much is given much is expected. Either criticize internally or if you are sincere and not self serving resign and then criticize. It is not done. |
OkpaNsukkaisBae:Because he knows awards and nominations in Nigeria are worthless. There is. I thing to be proud of when you share a nomination or award with all manner of crooks, 1mbeciles and charlatans? Just look at the manner of people with MON, CON, OFR etc. it devalues the awards. Talk less what the likes of ale reports and his ilk have done to awards in Nigeria. They are meaningless. In addition these awards are a money making scheme organized by scammers to massage the egos of mostly nobodies and the insecure. By attaching your name to them you are giving them legitimacy. |
Sapasenator:FAAC is net after foreign loan deductions. |
internationalman:Typical ignorant Nigerian.enlighten yourself. They had/have blacks, they exterminated most of them and hide the ones that are left. At some point the population of Argentina was 1/3rd blacks and up to half in some areas. Ironically Buenos Aires, their capital was once predominantly black. Argentina was built by black slaves. Their history and blacks are like 5and 6. As with all racists and to tell you how predominant blacks once were in Argentina, it is ironic one of their former presidents was half black. This was a result of a deliberate policy of whitening the population, through encouraging immigration of Europeans and leaving many black women with no choice but to marry whites over time for economic reasons and also because there was a scarcity off black men due to poor health etc. such is the history of blacks and Argentina that a majority of “white” Argentinians have black blood in them but they either do not know or refuse to accept or acknowledge it. Understand that there is hardly a South American country without a significant black population because in most cases the majority of the original inhabitants have been wiped out by disease brought by the explorers. The European explorers and migrants settlers settled to farm plantations with black slaves. So blacks and South America are like 5 and 6. Has it ever occurred to you that the countries that surround Argentina all have blacks, so why don’t you see or hear about black Argentinians? As far as white Nigerians you will be shocked there are more white Nigerians outside Nigeria than in Nigeria. I still remmember on my first day in a job in the Uk and my boss told me we have a Nigerian here and lo and behold this white man walked up to me. Apparently he was born and grew up in Nigeria in the 70s. Mandilas is a Nigerian, Leventis is a Nigerian and many other families…Trump’s son-in/law is a white Nigerian. Although not a Nigerian, even former British PM John major was once spent some years in Nigeria as a bank clerk in Jos. If not for the accident he had (he walks with a limp) causing him to return, his children could easily have been Nigerian. Nigeria was once a place where it was a privilege to be posted to in the eyes of the westerners and many of them had children here. I went to school with many who were born here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNSqBKzBeR0?si=h7CRfzdVh62BFVwX https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5L_GsCllHk?si=nK2CBf0DQDK9wdWD https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKbh-m5545M?si=PXF6c_cqrJsSAg83 |
Remman:Oga rest! I have already said my comments are predominately in respect to soya oil. Eat your soya and be happy! |
Etahi4:If you know about Argentina, you will already be aware that are probably the most racist country in the world. It’s in their DNA. Name one black Argentinian? They actually got rid of their black population. |
Remman:I am not changing topic, Yes with hindsight you mentioned beans and the thread was about beans but I was always talking primarily about soy Oil because the majority who consume soy especially in Nigeria and globally consume it via oil. I said it from the get go that those for whom soya is a staple (the Asians) eat it after a fermentation process that clearly alters the food just like cassava which is poisonous in raw form. However that you are not prepared to defend oil says it all. 90% of those who consume Soya (knowingly or unknowingly) do so via oil and for them the safety of soy oil is relevant again nobody can say it is safe because humans have not consumed oil long enough especially at scale like today. Therefore I stick to what I know for sure is safe before the same advocates who claim it is safe to sell oils, turn around next decade (when they have found a cheaper oil) to say actually soy oil does indeed cause this and that. Is it not the same AstraZeneca that told you Covid vaccines were safe that recently admitted they are not. Is it not the same people that said ivermectin cannot cure Covid that later turned round to say it does. Their excuse was not enough research, but somehow rushing out a vaccine that normally takes 10 years is enough research? Did I read “soya”, jump the gun and proceed to talk about oil when in fact the topic was about the meal, possibly and I put my hands up. But 1) soy even as a meal was until recently only considered by the mainstream as only good enough for animal consumption and 2) no one can say for definite soy oil is safe because human consumption is not even up to 1 life cycle. Therefore given the concerns raised, especially when medics and scientists have different opinions, I defer to the side of caution when it comes to soy oil. I don’t use it, though I am aware outside my home I cannot control what people use to cook the food they serve me. That is only a problem if I eat out a lot. The proliferation in the consumption of soy products is largely a result of economics and we know than when economics and safety compete, economics always win. |
Remman:Oga no be fight carry on and I hope you live longer than your grandfather. BTW Soy as a food was only introduced to Nigeria in 1908, it wasn’t eaten as an oil until recently. Oils like palm and groundnut oil have been consumed for over 5000 yrs in Africa, olive oil is mentioned in the Bible. There is a bigger body of evidence of the effect of consumption of oils like palm, groundnut and olive than soy. A man can smoke cigarettes his entire life and not get cancer, that does not mean cigarettes are not dangerous. Global consumption of soy oil is less than 60 years, nobody can say for a fact that it is safe. Those who consumed soya consumed it as a food meal after a process of fermentation not as an oil. |
Your brother next door in Uganda warned you, you cozied up to the west thinking they are your friends, now eye don open. |
Remman:Clap for yourself and carry on. No be fight. For the attention of others who Like I said food that is not natural to me I do not eat. Soy beans is alien to Nigeria and it is alien to the human diet. It was introduced to Nigeria in 1908. Our ancestors did not eat soy. In fact soy was not a food eaten globally until the 1960s. Like I said those who ate soy (Chinese) prepared it differently. |
Remman:Carry on eating soya. The same people that told you cow milk was good for you we now realize it was because they had excess of cow milk. The same people who told you butter was bad and margarine was good we now find margarine is bad and butter is much better. The same people who told you ribena was good for you we now find it is full of sugar, I spend my childhood eating plants annd blue and margarine because we were told it was healthy, decades later we now learn it’s one of the most dangerous things you can put in your mouth and so on and so forth. The same people who told you to take untested Covid vaccines, we now find out people are dying of heart attacks and the ivermectin they didn’t want you to use is more effective. They don’t want you using ivermectin because ivermectin is cheap and out of patent. Just as they want you consuming the type of oils they can plant. Soy, rapeseed, etc, they are bad oils. You clearly do not know how the Academic medical and pharmacy community and the corresponding big business partners and the research funding the receive work. No business is going to find the research of an academic to say his product is bad. On the contrary they will find research with a pretldetermined positive outcome like they did with milk. Nobody has ever said olive oil is bad or oranges are bad for you or yam or potatoes or pineapple etc etc because these are naturally occurring time consumed foods. Soya is new to the human diet. If a food exists and there is a debate split down the middle even in the medical community then it is a cue not to eat that food. If my parents didn’t eat it, I am not eating it. But hey feel free to eat soya and its products. But remmember one of the reason the west promotes soya is because it is the oil they can produce. The demonised palm oil for decades, now that they have an obesity crisis suddenly they are all using palm oil derived cooking oil and touting it as healthy. Like I said carry on with your soya. No fight there. And while you are at it look at the ingridients of the so called powdered or evaporated milk you are consuming, many of you do not know you are consuming processed palm oil. |
Remman:Soya increases estrogen in men. Estrogen is a female hormone. Look there are many things we consume that do not manifest immediately or take time to manifest. Like I said read up about soya. Soya is not normally meant for human consumption and even then the type eaten in Asia is fermented Soya. |
lionshare:You would think that would be the 1st directive |
