Politics › Re: Electricity: How Do I Know The Band I Am On? by casualobserver:
PriceActionZ:
These are parts of what fg supposed use to educate her customers and forced DISCOs to create a portal and publicize it to educate them on which band they belong to. Or better still, when you pay on any portal, part of the token supposed carry a code that shows your band before the main recharge numbers. But since everything about this country is fraudulent, and not transparent, it will be very hard to accomplish. The discos won't want to do that because someone who supposed be in band A will work himself or herself to band Z, while enjoying stable lights and someone that hardly gets 10 hours of light will be forced to pay for band A. That is the kind of country we are.
It is difficult to educate the poorly educated and the uneducatable. You have access to the internet but the 1st place you go to is Nairaland?

Every disco has the list of bands on their website. It’s part of the law and they have all complied. If The OP and typical nairalanders had any brains that would have been their first port of call.

That is the kind of citizens we are. Dumb!!

Foreign Affairs › Re: 20 Countries That Owe US Money by casualobserver: 12:36pm On Apr 09, 2024
Fash20:
I was skeptical at first when I saw countries like Saudi and China. Those who are known to give loans. Thanks for the correction
If the OP had stopped to engage his brain or had any knowledge of the subject matter, he would have realized that something was amiss because a country like the Cayman Islands with a paltry GDP of $6B cannot be owning the US $260b. At current interest rates, the interest alone is more than twice their entire GDP. America will never let a country with a GDP of $6B owe then $260B!
Foreign Affairs › Re: 20 Countries That Owe US Money by casualobserver:
God1000:
Hmm, so china is owing US this much and not the other way round.

Well, this will finally address the debate and misconception
Fash20:
The US basically own these economies apart from China. The US is rich. How many countries can loan this kind of money out.
It’s the other way round. This is a list of countries that the US owes money ( I.e countries that bought Us treasuries. Aka debt) not countries that owe the US.

@God1000, This is what happens when ignoramuses just do copy and paste articles from the internet and are unable to spot the errors in the articles because they themselves have no knowledge of the subject matter. It is the the US that owes these countries not the other way round.

You “own” a debt is different from “owe” a debt. It helps to understand English. The US owes the debt, these countries own the debt.

The US is basically the worlds biggest debtor but they get away with it because they are the worlds reserve currency and they simply print more money. This is what the BRICS are trying to challenge.

I’m disappointed in Akpabio, he’ll further damage tinubu’s already bad reputation
It’s clear now that stealing is not only north
Infact the stealing for south no get example
I don’t know who is more daft, Atiku or people like you. There is no padding, the 3 trillion is accounted for and belongs to bodies like judiciary, INEc, National Assembly,TETFUND, etc, whose budgets are statutory 1st line charges and guaranteed by the constitution. There is a reason members f the same PDP stood up and supported the suspension of NIngi. In my view when I read posts like yours I now feels Jimoh Ibrahim was right and the suspension should have been 12 months.

Some people need to think before they even talk. What is the entire budget of the country that you can pad it with 3T?

Thank you
Let’s agree it’s about obidient,can you mention like 10 Igbo/south south each in tinubu’s Government ?
Are you daft? Actually you don’t have any brains so I guess that was a daft question on my part. Correction: you are daft! If you do not know that there are more than10 agencies that constitutionally must have ss/Se representation then your case is worse that not having a brain.

To begin with every state has at least 1 minister by law. SE has 5 SS has 7. That alone is 12. If you are talking specifically about ministers, no zone has 10 ministers except the NW, not even the SW. In addition there are special advisers, board members, DG etc. To find another 8 is not hard. You really are daft! Think and summon the strength to engage your brain before you post…try it, it won’t kill you.

that is not what I asked you.

what of 'Bosun Tijani? who did he put in power?
You lack English comprehension. Like the minister of education said recently, there is an epidemic of educated people who read but do not comprehend what they read. You can recognize them because they ask questions to subjects that have already been answered in what they read. Added to the fact that you are an established dull3rd!

You are the kind of person that will see 2 sets of 2 apples each and will fail to understand that there are 4 apples in front of you and will keep saying You can only see 2 apples here and 2 apples there so how can it be 4? Your post history shows that even if we count the apples one by one you will still be arguing that no it is 2 here and 2 there.

Osinbajo supporters, the only people that surpass you in dullness are Obidients. Redeemed has killed your brains, Obidients never had any to begin with.

Na turn by turn,let tinubu fill all positions with his Yoruba people
It is not about yoruba, it is about Obidients. But the truth has never been your portion in life. You prefer the tribal narrative because it suits your agenda. If it is down to tribe you have no business seeking appointment because you voted 99% for your tribesman. Why do you seek appointment from a man and a govt you insulted and continue to insult so much?

If you had any principles you would reject any offers.

2027 is only 3 yrs away….try again and then you can appoint anyone you want to appoint.

Bigot Tunubu withdrew because she is Igbo
And some Lagos boys were telling us that tinubu isn’t a tribalist,very old tribalist
Good thing is that you can’t be there forever

Abeg they should just bring back buhari,this Yoruba man is worse than Fulani and we thought fulanis hate Igbo more than Yoruba
99% people, we have heard. He is a tribalist, go and win your own election and appoint who you want.

Vote you no vote, you lost and are insulting up and down like you did during Buhari regime now you are omplaining when they blank you.

Shey you say you are Obidients? Go and prepare for 2027 and you can appoint who you want. The door is now shut.

Bear in mind the 2 most powerful ministers are Umahi and Wike. Umahi is Ibo and Wike is PDP.

Nothing will ever satisfy you ingrates, that is why Buhari didn’t bother and just ignored you. It is time Tinubu learnt to just shut the door and do his own thing because whatever he does you will still complain and abuse, yet you voted 99% against him. I don’t know how a tribe that voted 99% for their own incompetent tribesman can have the audacity to call anyone a tribalist. People that collected campaign vehicles and only distributed to Ibos.

For the record (for those who have sense) Tinubu made the appointment. His party men said no (just like Ambode’s case) enough is enough. There are already rumblings amongst the party that too many outsiders are being appointed and those who worked for victory of the posrtu are being sidelined. A leader does not go against the wishes of his followers because it is his followers that make him what he is. So appointment withdrawn.

I know you are daft. We have established this a long time ago. I didn’t know you also lack basic English comprehension.

Read again: Tijani apologized publicly in the senate and asked for forgiveness. I stated clearly, the hand was extended to the opposition, people like Tijani accepted apologized and asked for forgiveness blaming it on the exuberance of youth. Meanwhile others are still in campaign mode 10yrs after election, constantly insulting the govt. so the hand of fellowship has been withdrawn. No sensible political party will extend thee hand of fellowship to ingrates when those who worked for its victory are out in the cold.

If the Obidients don’t appreciate the gesture, they can wait to win their own election. Nobody abandons his own for ungrateful outsiders. And that includes Osinbajo supporters like you.

Only a foolish govt will appoint Obote people who will be sabotaging the govt from within.

Lifetime opportunity as a drug worker?
There is a group of people that should not be poninting fingers when it comes to drugs. These people can abuse anybody on any other matter but not drugs because we know the source of their wealth is drugs. In fact many of their so called businesses are fronts for laundering the proceeds of drugs…..4 of 5 of their so called rich men have been or are involved in drugs. A lot of them say they are “businessmen” but what they do use their drug money to buy goods and cars abroad to import and sell inNigeria to “wash” the money.
Others can point fingers…not them.

vowiski:
MTN Nigeria is a very irresponsible coy, and they keep doing this because the Nigeria government allows them to do so.

This is economic sabotage, government will turn blind eyes because MTN knows how to shut their mouth, of course with bribes.

This has been a persistent issue and no government agency is ready to talk about it.

MTN can’t try this madness in South Africa.

A very mediocre company pretending to be a lion.


Just see how their useless 5G services are. Just imagine the see finish.


Painful thing is a lot of people have lost money, lost lives, failed examinations, and lots more because they depended on the very useless MTN network.

Unfortunately, they will keep spending money on advertisement and celebrities, hiring quack engineers with low payment and huge money to bribe government.

Until we wake up, irresponsible companies like MTN will keep pooing in our throats.

They know we will only complain online , let some of these LP SANs sue the bloody hell out of MTN and let us begin to press charges against these mad parasites.

NCC, EFCC, ICPC, National Assembly will never comment on issues like this, never!

Crazy thing is not just about browsing, you can’t even receive OTP.

Madness!!!!!!
oga it is not by force to use MTN. I never have and I never will. you are talking as if you must use MTN...you dont have to.

Your case is like the case of many married women who feel flattered because they are approached by men. A married woman who is well brought up will be insulted that a man sees a ring on her finger and thinks she approachable. He is basically insulting her and telling you he sees her as a ho who would mess around with him despite being married.

People who are not well brought up don’t know the difference. That’s why you think it is ok for a man to give a married woman money in the presence of her husband as described. Plus the husband, plus the wife who failed to realize she has just been insulted by the man in addition to her husband, plus the man who gave money, plus you who sees nothing wrong, all of you are not well brought up!!!

My theory again.......you think I will come low to join you in insults?
Tufiakwa!!
But you deem it ok for a married woman to collect money from another man in the presence of her husband and collect his number?

The real reason you can’t respond is you lack good home training and I have outed you. That you lack home training is evident in your post it is a fact not an insult.

A man who is well brought up will not marry such a woman, a woman who is well brought up will not marry such a man because your upbringing has programmed you to know what qualities to look for in a spouse. And if by circumstance you find yourself in such a situation, you are programmed by your upbringing not to react….certainly not in that manner.

That you do t know this shows you are not well brought up…simple statement of fact!!

See you derailing the post!

Is this about man and man or man and woman?
It is a man who appreciates a woman who stood up in defense of the poor wife, teaching the hopeless man, also in public, how best to treat a woman. Besides, in the scenario, did the woman fight him? Taking the money and handing it to the husband translates to a fight in your lexicon is what you're telling me. Na wa o!

I won't exchange insults with you, I am way above that. It is always when a man has nothing to say that he resorts to insults.
You are clearly not well brought up. If you were I wouldn’t have to explain basic rules of behaviour to you.

Your post highlights why when we want to marry we enquire which family the bride or groom is from.

Like I implied from a previous post, it is often people who are not well brought up that end up marrying g each other leading to the scenario described by the OP. Ofcourse observers who themselves were poorly raised would not know what the proper course of action or inaction is because neither g badly brought up they know no better!

It depends

What do you mean by 'worth' here?

A woman's worth is not linked to having a 'husband'


Do you know how much Linda Ikeji is worth? Just an example

Women can increase their worth in different ways
A woman's "worth" is defined by her ability to procreate and nurture...just as a mans value is in his ability to provide.....no real man cares about her financial worth. After 30 a single woman's value declines rapidly.

Please dont put up Linda ikeji on a pedestal for women...she is a baby mama who's baby daddy denied her. If she were that desirable by the kind of men she desires,she wont be a baby mama, she wont be raising a child without a father.
