awesomeJ:
My point is not on what the exact figures are.
It's on the growth being a paltry 10% when all the constituent goods and services have had perhaps 150%+ increase.

For simplicity.

Take the GDP in 2022 to 2024 to be like this:

2022. ... ....... 2024
Agriculture. 60trn. 120trn
Telecoms. 10trn. ..... 15trn
Industrial goods. 10trn. 20trn
Manufacturing. 10trn. 20trn
Oil and gas. 20 trn 60trn
Services. 70trn. 100trn
Total 180 335trn


From cement to tiles to malt to noodles and from the top line of companies' results the estimate are conservative.


Why is the growth not closer to 80%+?

That's my point.
No dey crack your Head to wrap around these statistics..

Na the same NBS say less than 5% Nigerians are unemployed..

Even those who hustle once a week or underemployed are classified as employed..
But statistics paints a different picture.

You go tire for methodology.
No kill yourself to by force understanding.

Like dey say, the more you think you understand Naija, the less you actually do.. grin

I see how you are trying to justify yourself to the worship of lifeless statue. The Bible say children should honour, obey and submit to their parents. If you prostrate to your parents in greetings which is honoring them, is it the same as worshipping them as gods?
Good, I like your answer.

Just as anyone who bows or prostrates to his father at home with the intention of worshipping him,is actually worshipping an Idol so also any Catholic who bows to any Idol with the intention of worshipping it, is worshipping an idol. He/she is meant to honor the Person those images represent.
If it's an image representing Christ, He/she is meant to in addition to obey and honor, Worship the PERSON Of CHRIST the image represents.
(note the words- "with the intention" ) wink

To your indirect question- why worship them as gods?
Answer: Catholics don't worship them as gods.

Why do Catholics even have the images at all?

Let me also let you provide the explanation by yourself with the ffg questions. Hope you will indulge me. Thank you.

1) Why do you have images/pictures/enlarged Portraits of your parents, loved ones friends or those who have passed away?
Even statues of celebrities and prominent people are molded both dead and alive?
Why is it done?

2) Why can't some parties/events be held without decorations?
(disco light, mannequine, costumes, assorted designs, etc)

3)Why can't some intimacy/romance session be held without some sort of symbolism?
Like physical symbols we buy candle Light, dim lights, flowers, music, love symbols, etc)

Just as Praying and Worshipping the Lord can be done without images..TRUE

but why do we humans make the extra effort to carry out
( 1, 2 & 3); buy and put them around us in such moments even when we can still carryout each activity without buying a single item or "IMAGE" or decorating a single place or "IMAGE"?
are we humans worshipping those "Images" or slaves to the "work of artistic decorations"?

Again: Hope you will indulge me. Thank you.

You are deflecting...most core truths are simple and seemly childish. You don't need to know Greek and Latin to know certain things. Simply reading the Bible will give you the answers.

There was no time in the Bible that the early church was called "Roman Catholic". Instead there was a church in Rome, that was under the leadership of the apostles in Jerusalem.
Correct..
But when division started amongst the Christians, this church in Rome wanted to distinguish themselves from factional group who though respect the pope, but disagree with modes of worship as it interferes with their culture. They're generally called the the Eastern Catholic Church
but in fact they are 23 in number.
So the one that began in Rome which was the initial universal church for all Christians became Roman universal Church--> now Roman Catholic Church.(The only Western Catholic Church)

The word "catholic" means universal. It's not really a sect invented word or a word tied to a particular religious group.

Catholicism is the headquarters of idolatry in the world.

Visit the Vatican before arguments please.

They worship and bow down to all sorts of statues in the name of Saints.
Just as the some tribe kneel and prostrate to their parents.. Its idolatry too?
And Almost everyone has pictures and album of their relatives and friends, dead or alive and celebrate memorials in remembrance..

I participated in all that before I began hearing this argument of Catholics..

Once I could not prove this distinction and hence why we should not stop what we call tradition, greetings, norms and values of memorials..
i concluded we should let the Catholics be as we are not different as humans on what we create and adore ourselves..

One thing I learnt from AGBA in 2024 is "never reveal any stock" just give a clue in a sector and move on as if nothing happened... @Agba was coded telling people to position in insurance stocks sometimes ago those who got the message got the message
Spot on.. Think say na only me notice am. grin
At some point I think he even mentioned one or two during an analysis or result. It was just a one time thing at different times and he never followed up on replies..

He then later further gave hint on the Insurance Index direction as a whole with his TA chart and tools.

Whether he's right or wrong as events unfold, I respect his decision as well as every other person..

Do you want to play it super safe, or are you willing to allocate a portion of your money to a very safe bet? The banking sector might be the way to go, leveraging the power of an index. Yes, something similar to the index funds you often hear about. You don’t need any special skills—just trust in Nigeria.

Here’s why: consider banking stocks ['FCMB', 'STANBIC', 'ACCESSCORP', 'FBNH', 'NPFMCRFBK', 'UNITYBNK', 'JAIZBANK', 'WEMABANK', 'ETI', 'FIDELITYBK', 'UBA', 'ZENITHBANK', 'GTCO']. If you had invested equal amounts in January and rebalanced in December to take profits, your returns (excluding dividends) would look like this:

2020: 66.5%

2021: -1.2%

2022: 41.2%

2023: 100.1%

2024: 26.5%


This performance is based purely on price appreciation. 2025 might not be any different. Simply give equal weight to these stocks, ignore market fluctuations throughout the year, and check back on December 27 to collect your profits. That’s it—a straightforward, no-fuss strategy.

shocked shocked shocked
Safe bet .its needed
Sometimes we just need a Treasury bill kind of company in stocks; Either a bid(price appreciation) goes through or I get back my capital.. grin
No stress. As you rightly put -safe bet.
Though nothing can be absolutely absolute in Stock biz. grin

I believe Train 7 is still under construction and may remain so for the next two years. I don't see it being commissioned earlier than H2 2027 or 2028 in my opinion. You know how projects drag on forever sometimes huh undecided
You seem approximately correct with the Train 7 projected completion date(all things being equal).

Train 7 is about 8MTPA (Million Tonnes Per Annum) and 67% completed.

Still very far from global competition.

Qatar-77MTPA + about 30MTPA underway
Nigeria-22MTPA + about 8MTPA from Train 7 underway.

It's not cuz of the foreign paparazzi.

There will be a stage you reach in wealth, you realise that it can't buy everything..

Equipped and Accessible hospital, Pharmacy without fake drug.

Good road network for your cars wherever you drive.

Professional mechanic with peace of mind.

Good fuel for ur vehicle without knocking your engine.

24/7 light without noise pollution of generator wherever you go not just in your house (Solar isn't usually 24/7 guaranteed)

Clean and available water that is regularly checked and maintained wherever you go.
(How many wealthy people constantly clean their tank or change the filter in Nigeria.)

Fast and strong Network for video calls and high end connectivity.?

Security of neighborhood and efficient emergency services like 911?
No unnecessarily bodyguards who sometimes invade your privacy, due to the nature of their work and they could be a security risk themselves.

Even clean air for breathing, due to clean environment and non-clogged gutters and clean surrounding environment isn't guaranteed in Nigeria.

How many of the above can a wealthy man constantly provide for himself & family and also maintain throughout his life time.. He also has relations he interacts with and friends and he will also not be 24/7 staying indoors in his all-having house every day throughout the year. He will visit friends, village, probably choose to live in other cities or areas; does he carry the house wherever he goes or he simply replicates all expenses again in his new place?

All arguments so far against TA are all in line with the fact that TA works but you guys are looking for an indicator that will be tied to a concrete substance which TA's have agreed that it's not entirely possible. so i don't see any argument.

If Wapco was increasing in Price and you saw an unusual activity on the chart different from WAPCOs usual dormant behaviour, then it's TA indicator but it can't outrightly predict the actual associated concrete substance which is-Acquisition which TA's agree, so I don't see the argument.

If there is an argument, it should be that before WAPCO started rallying from 35-36 and before FMN started rallying from 33-34, the chart remained same and there was no change in the chart from all TA diagonistic tools from BEFORE the insider news and DURING the insider news and then changes become visible only AFTER info is in the public domain, by then it's already on full bid,then one has an argument against TA.

if the right TA tools are deployed and cross-referenced, I believe it will indicate an activity DURING insider news before being public . That's where the work is; as there are broad range of TA tools,deploying the right arsenal is key.

TA wont be that useful if ideal conditions are met; Where inside activities don't take place until they are already public knowledge. It doesn't work 100% world over not to mention Nigeria peculiarities.

I don't do TA but most of us non-chartists and others against TA use Volume movement over time as a popular indicator, that's TA!! grin
So also there are other indicators and metrics that are beyond us.
So i believe it works.
