I don't get it at all.

Money from diaspora to the bank is exchange for household utilization. Dollars gotten from the bank for business men is for business.

None of these counts in anyway as government revenue. I think that is the context of the discussion.

Diaspora money is not a revenue. Money from crude exports is the major source of revenue for Nigeria. Diaspora money isn't.
Did I read somewhere where you claim to be an economics student? Jesus wept!

Do you also have a problem with English?

Did I say anywhere that diaspora money is govt revenue? I said it is the largest source of forex FOR THE ECONOMY. That does not mean diaspora forex is owned by the government or is revenue for the government.

One has to be teaching someone who claims to be an economics student economics on Nairaland!


My friend you really don’t understand some basic concepts. For someone who claims to be a student of the subject. And your English comprehension is very poor. Which in itself makes communication hard work.

Wrong. Oil is our major source of government revenue. Take out oil, take out taxes from oil multinationals and you have a collapse of the system. Total collapse. Why do you think government, despite the oil revenue kept borrowing to run the system? The reliance to pay back the loan is mostly on crude exports.

Finito.
I am tired of ignorant people talking without figures. When I post I back it up with figures.

Since you are so knowledgeable and so sure of yourself, I am sure you have no problem providing the data or figures, evidence that back what you say.

I am telling you right now you can’t present the figures because you don’t know what you are talking about and are an ignoramus!

The $20bn remittance is from Nigerian diasporas

Remittance is not generated by Govt but by Nigerians working overseas returned as black tax.

Hope you are aware?
Oga you clearly don’t understand how the banking system works. In the past, a man in America sends money to Nigeria he sends his through back channels because the rate is higher than the official rate. The dollars stays outside the banking system. Either in the hands of the mallam or in the hands of the recipient until they need to change it. With the reforms, you can transfer the dollar to someone in Nigeria via the official banking system. The recipient will get his Naira AT A GOOD RATE and the dollar goes into the Nigerian banking system. That receiving bank will be credited with the dollars. That bank now has dollars to sell to anyone who needs without looking for dollars from CBN. That bank has a customer that needs dollars, he doesn’t have to go to a mallam or the CBN because the bank can give him a competitive rate. That is how you formalize diaspora remittances into the system that was not obtainable previously.


At the end of the day what is forex for? To make foreign transactions. If a business man can get dollars from his bank because somebody in New York has sent dollars to their account, then he doesn’t have to utilize the dollars at the CBN.

Do you get it now?

Nobody said diaspora forex belongs to the government.

Diaspora remittances is a source of foreign exchange but it is not government revenue. It is not government funding to use for government projects or infrastructure. It is actually for household uses like consumption, education, healthcare etc.
I never said it was govt revenue. I said it is an important source of forex. I will get to forex later.

As for revenues. As a percentage of govt revenue it has fallen drastically. Like I said (perhaps on another thread) NNPC did not even remit any revenue for 18 months. Governments largest source of revenue comes from customs duty, CIT, VAT, etc. these. Revenues far exceed our current income from oil.

Also we need to seperate onshore oil that is prone to militancy and offshore oil. We are increasingly reliant and only investing in offshore oil. This reduces the need impact of militancy. The issue with militancy is they unwittingly created a system that bypasses them. The multinationals have divested from onshore and all the new investments are offshore.

Now to forex:

Oil is important because it is a major source of forex but for over 8 years like I said it has not been the major source of forex. The. Problem in the past was that the forex coming in was “not in system” due to the forex regime we operated. With the reforms those inflows now become “part of the system” making the forex from the government less important.

That will make things much worse, these guys know the creeks, it will take the Soldiers years to know the creeks
I repeat many people are commenting from a position of ignorance. Right now Nigeria makes a paltry $15 from every barrel of Oil that sells for $70. It’s like we are giving the thing away. Why? Because over the years militancy and insecurity have given the oil campaniles to claim high costs of production of $40 a barrel. This means that at $70 all we get is $15 a barrel. 70-40=30, 30/2=15…..50/50 JV.

When crude was $80 and production cost was $20, it was worth appeasing militants, Now thanks to past actions of militants production costs is $40 and crude is $70. Add to that for the last 8 years diaspora remittances has been our largest source of forex, add to that we have now integrating diaspora forex inflows into official channels and reserves, addd to that we have a lot more off shore production safe from the nuisance of militants. You add these all together and although you don’t want any militant to blow up any pipeline, the impact is not what it used to be. At $15 dollar a barrel profit, with other sources of forex, with other offshore oil installations, there is less incentive to appease militants. The marginal propensity to appease the militants if you may is not what it was.

I don't agree with what you are saying about income that acrues Nigeria.

Claiming Oil is just for forex is a very big lie and delusion

Where else does foreign earnings come into Nigeria:

i. Oil earnings
ii. Diaspora remittance
iii. Foreign direct investment
iv. Other exports like agriculture
v. Customs, NPA,


These are the major earnings for Nigeria

You see that VAT is just money circulating with the States
VAT doesn't really show that the economy is growing.

Even US the biggest economy in the world doesn't use VAT

Why are Niger Deltans Gov paid derivation funds.
Which other State is paid derivation funds?

So you guys should stop spreading those unverified information.

The only thing that can boost Nigeria's economy is industrialisation. For that to happen power issues must be tackled

Then Nigerian industries will begin to produce
1. For our consumption
2. For exports to African countries
3. To the globe

Also Agriculture is an area not tapped
Nigeria has

Nigeria is blessed with 36 million hectares of arable farmland. This alone can lead to massive Agricultural revolution when you factor in mechanization within the entire Agric value chain
When I post I give figures. For me to take you seriously I suggest you do your homework and actually find the figures behind the headlines you posted above. I know you haven’t because if you did you would realize I am right.

For a start diaspora remittances is $20b a year. Do the math on oil. Production @1.5mpd, govt share of JV is often 50% sometimes 40%, sometimes 60%. Not all the oil we produce belongs to us this is a fallacy of many uninformed Nigerians. On average we keep 50%. That 50% is after cost of production.

production cost is $40 a barrel. I think you’ll find out that at $75 a barrel, less than $10b a year from oil goes to the govt.

I know it is shocking to you but they’ve been telling you for years, most weren’t paying attention.

I will read the rest of your post and reply later in the mean time get some figures to back up your post. Talk is cheap, figures speak for themselves.

I suggest you check FAAC revenues for the last few years, I think you’ll find we have been surviving largely on VAT, electronic money levies, CIT and customs duty.

Many months there has been no Oil remittances. It was quite a big deal when NNPC made its first remittance to FAAC in ages.

Our budget this year is N54T, customs alone is expected to contribute N12T of that which is over 20%, There is VAT, there is CIT. Dangote alone paid N400b in company tax last year.

The bolded is not true. If you can not face South, face the North if there are no trees or buildings shading your panels. East and West will limit your sunlight exposure mostly to morning and evening respectively. The rest are on point.
It depends on how far you are away from the equator. The further North you go the worse North facing becomes. It may not be such an issue in Southern Nigeria as we are closer to the equator. As for west and east I did mention about morning and evening light.


Below is Kano north and south facing . You are right though it is almost immaterial in Lagos being near the equator. But in Kano you will lose as much as 30-40% in some months like January by facing north in addition to lower production for the year..

Deluded kids everywhere 😂... if OIL is no longer the mainstay, what is??
I have told you: the importance of oil right now is forex. And even that has gone down from 95% to less than 50%. Most of govt revenues come from vat and taxes. Perhaps you’ve not been listening that there were months without oil remittances. The Oil sector as a percentage of GDP has gone down from 30% in the 1980s to about 7% today.


Your major significance right now is forex because it still accounts for just under 50%. Atgough still significant, oil is no longer the major source of forex. That alone should tell you the trend. All the major investments are offshore for a reason. You will wake up one day and no one will care whether you blow up a pipeline or not. You will wake up one day and find out the companies have packed up never to return. Already there are no new onshore investments . You will be the ones begging people to repair the pipelines you blew up when you discover all the jobs have gone.

You are important but with every passing day you become less and less important. Enjoy it while it lasts but don’t get carried away with the hype. Companies and investors ar e already making alternative investments devoid of your constant nonsense.

You people should stop overestimating your importance.

Oil is important but it is no longer our largest source of government revenue and from 95%, it it now less that 50% of our forex revenues. Diaspora remittances bring in more forex than the oil sector and from 30% at one time, the oil sector is now less that 7% of our GDP.

You are still important but if I were you I would go gently with the delusional narratives. With every year you becoming less and less important.

While you hang on to militancy and oil, it seems you may not have realized that Nigeria is slowly but gradually leaving you at the same spot. All our new oil fields and investments are offshore where you can’t touch. One day you will blow pipeline and nobody will even bother to report it.

Interesting. As per the bold. What do you figure is at the root of that (assuming it to be the case). Something inherently wrong with mixing races at the biological level or a simple problem with dislocation in terms of social identity (being neither here nor there).

CodeTemplar:
monitoring things ?

Sunshine is sunshine.
It is not, if your roof is facing North for instance you will get very poor production the further North you go because Nigeria is in the Northern hemisphere. For Nigeria the optimal direction is a south facing roof. The next best is west or east facing. West gives you better production in the evening and east better production in the morning. If your roof type is the very steep angled send down the rain type roof and you live in Lagos, your production will be drastically reduced. The ideal angle of your roof is the angle of the latitude of your location. The more your roof deviates from that angle the lower your production. In Lagos the latitude is 6 degrees. If you install solar on a a send down the rain roof in Lagos, you will always struggle to get good production. The further north you go the better it becomes with the same roof angle. This is science.


That’s why the location direction and elevation of the roof matters when giving production figures.

As an example, below is the estimated yearly production of a 10kw system facing south with 45, 15 and 6 degree angles. The highest production is at a 6 degree angle which is the latitude for Lagos. Not much difference between 6 and 15 degrees but once you start moving into steep roof territory it starts to matter significantly.

There is something deeply repugnant and offensive in this statement. Do you wish to discriminate against or demean young women for losing their fathers?
It’s the reality of life. There are things a woman will not dare do when she has a father to account to.

There are levels to this thing

One who never had a father….the worst
When a young girl loses her father at a young age, the next thing to look at is her support system. The 1st step in that is her mother, Oyinbo mother = red flag.

To start with even with father and mother present, half caste children are usually never ok. I grew up with many of them, only 1 in 10 amount to anything in life. They are inherently confused, wayward, antisocial behaviorally messed up children neither here nor there. Usually involved in drugs or other anti social behaviour.

They usually have a problem with identity.

When he destroyed the state assembly they didn’t see assault on democracy? Now a man who passed laws, appointed commissioners, spent state resources illegally is now a saint and those who are retrying to remove him for breaking the law are the bad guys?

Both sides played a dirty game, one was too dumb to execute and lost. To the Victor the spoils of war because if Fubara had siceeeded in removing the 27, there would be no sympathy for them.

My solar yield this January.

The heat this time of the year caused a significant drop in solar yield. Always remember to factor in the temperature coefficient when purchasing your solar panels so as to have a realistic yield estimate when you factor in the different temperatures we experience throughout the year.

10.2kw sms dual mppt
10.28kw panels (12x440w Jinko and 10x500w cworth)
18kwh cworth lifepo4 batteries ( 2x100ah and 1x150ah)
Solar Assistant on Raspberry pi5
Victron smart shunt 300a
Junktek shunt/battery monitor 100a

Achieved 100 percent off-grid status in January.

Take not, load does not factor in the 100wh consumed by the inverter itself (72kwh in 30days)

Peak continuous solar yield this month was 6,500kw i.e 63percent max yield

Peak cumulative load this month was 5.2kw

Max yield - 34.1kwh on Jan 20th
Lowest yield - 12.5kwh on Jan 19th

Max load - 24.3kwh on Jan 27th
Lowest load - 9.8kwh on Jan 19th

Max solar yield in 7days - 205kwh between Jan 17th - 23rd

Appliances used:

—Indoor and outdoor lights (17hrs average daily)
—Smart speakers (24/7 standby)
—Laptop charger, phone chargers, smart switches (always plugged, on standby and used on demand)

Average daily energy consumption 20kwh

Something a lot of folks miss when trying to go the renewable energy route is using energy efficient appliances. Converting all appliances to energy efficient ones is as important as getting panels and installing batteries. As you can see, most of my appliances are energy efficient.

Energy management is also an important factor, I make use of smart switches which are automated to turn appliances on and off for different set durations.

My biggest energy consuming appliances for the month of January:

1. Lg 1.5hp inverter air conditioner 184kwh
2. Lg 1hp inverter air conditioner 84kwh
3. Starlink and own router 59kwh
4. Double door fridge 52.3kwh
5. Chest deep freezer 34.63kwh
6. Heat-pump clothes dryer 27kwh

Those of us with experience with women like this told you from the start she is an entitled manipulative woman.

I can’t reveal as I have never heard it said publicly but I can tell you the matter affects, Ogun Ondo and Edo states.

Martins Amaewhule and his co travelers are engaging in a jamboree.

Take it from me that Fubara will not be impeached.

Now they’ve roped the Deputy in to clear the way for Martins to become Governor should they succeed in impeaching Fubara.

Tinubu’s chances of re-election is already slim, now he wants to dim every ray of light left of his chance of re-election by setting Rivers on fire.

We will be watching and waiting to tell the fools rejoicing here that “we told you so”.
Oga don’t overestimate your importance. While every vote counts, Tinubu did not win because of rivers votes. He won by 2m votes and Rivers only gave him 230k votes.

This is a fight between Wike and Fubara, nothing to do with Tinubu. As a responsible leader he brokered a peace deal. It was your chop chop elders that because of what they are collecting led Fubara astray and advised him wrongly. In the end the deal Tinubu proposed is better that the situation they now find themselves.

Blaming Tinubu for this is blackmail and basically you are asking him to side with your camp and rescue Fubara for failing to heed his advice. If na your 400k votes dey give you arrogance, carry the 230k votes and rest. Worst case scenario he will come back to bourdillon as an ex president……heaven will not fall!!!

A governor who behaved like Fubara did deserves to be impeached! The fact that Wike clearly still enjoys support in Rivers also says that a lot of you making noise threatening Tinubu with votes likely never voted for him in the first place so there is no vote to withdraw. You can’t withdraw something you never gave. We are not foools we are thinking people. We don’t engage in gra gra and false bravery only to go back and eat our vommit. We analyze, we strategize and we embark on battles that are winnable. If a battle is not winnable we stoop to conquer later or accept our fate. So when I tell you that Tinubu can’t be threatened with votes, trust me it is because he has done all the analysis. Something you would do well to learn before you embark on winless battles. You were warned at the start this would be the end result, you said no we are brave people, we don’t do Godfather, no be Godfather Put am into office? When Wike single-handedly campaigned and put him in office why didn’t you say no to Godfatherism then? We saw the campaigns on TV, Fubara did not speak, it was Wike talking. I didn’t know what His voice sounded like till he became governor.

Tinubu will lose election ecos of wike
How? How many votes did Wike give him in 2023? How many of those votes will go in 2027 because of impeachment?


People just make senseless emotional comments without examining the data or facts.

The only reason they hated gej was because he was not a Yoruba man like them.now divenubu is destroying everywhere even idiots like adeboyee,oledepo,and the other deeper life foool is quiet because of tribalism
Excuse me whose votes won him the election in the first place when the North felt he should not contest because it was Yaradua’s and hence the North’s slot?

He made a deal with Tinubu in 2011 and the SW voted for him. The SW withdrew that block vote in 2015.
