First and foremost, am a Christian.

Muslim cashout from it as well other religions. One Muslim guy who dey Mecca or Saudi dey even pray make this cbex no crash. Maybe na the money from cbex baba use flex go Mecca.

Even people wey dey abroad enter am, people who join Early cashout big time. It lasted up to 2years as I hear people from ijebu ode or ogun state do am early

May God help us
I dey America. Na so my cousin in Nigeria contacted me to introduce me to so called investment. I knew immediately it’s a ponzi scheme and that was four weeks ago. As if I knew it would crash four weeks later.


I insisted to my cousin that I’m not interested. My cousin went further to tell me that even people in America invested and they’re in their WhatsApp group. I told myself if you’re in America and you’re so stupid to invest in ponzi in Nigeria when such schemes are outright banned in America , then I thought to myself that they deserve to lose their money if they did.

Americans now travel by greyhounds buses for the fear of plane crashes. Greyhounds buses' fares are now more expensive due to this move.

There's something they're yet to detect. It could be a terrorist attack but in a tech, same way they hacked onto key accounts in the usa and hackers asked them to pay ransom via crypto
Americans traveling on buses because private planes are crashing. Last time I checked, American travelers travel on commercial airliners which are not crashing.

Please make your comment make sense because it’s not even true to start with

What is it with American and crash recently with too many crash.
America need to check their aviation sector, nobi only Nigeria and Africa we suppose dey criticize.
These planes that are crashing are 99.9% privately owned planes. They’re not commercial airliners.

If private plane owners don’t stay on top of maintenance of their planes, you can’t blame the whole of the sector for it. At least commercial planes that the public travel on are not crashing
Foreign AffairsRe: Trump Says Some Illegal Immigrants Can Stay Based On Boss Recommendations by Chonchin: 10:15pm On Apr 12, 2025
The only leverage Trump have over bringing China job back to the US is having illegal immigrants around. Who’s going to work for the type of cheap labor pay like the Chinese do if not the illegal immigrants.

No illegal immigrants, no cheap labor Chinese jobs coming back to the US

Michael Jackson and Coca cola were the most popular things on the planet at some point. But for now, I think Ronaldo may have caught up with that level of popularity
Ronaldo and Messi are only known where football is a thing. Football as popular as it is, it’s not popular everywhere in the world. Average Americans don’t know who Ronaldo or Messi is. Of course they know MJ

The best trump can do is revert back what he is doing cause usa isn't the only country China do business with
Why should it be the US business if other countries are okay with being taken advantage of by China? Many countries have had their nationals assets taken over by China. Every country and their citizens can’t be fools to China at the same time. One must have the guts to stand up to China which Trump is doing

So its ok for usa to increase there's but not ok for China to do same.

Business point of view that's where China is looking at, n incase u don't know, China don't need America to make things for them America need them.

U think Americans can actually afford made in America product without bringing the bank??
My point is from international business perspective or any business for that matter equals tariffs on a situation where you’re the one selling more and making more money from the business relationship, equal tariffs is not fair on the other party that sell less

The best the US can do is renegotiate the terms of trade with China to make it balance on both sides
Foreign AffairsRe: China Raises Duties On US Goods To 125%, Calls Trump Tariff Hikes A 'joke' by Chonchin: 12:17pm On Apr 11, 2025
China is in the wrong here if the tariffs from both countries are the same while China’s at the same time is the one selling more to the US. If the trades are equal and balance , then equal tariffs are justified but the trades are not equal in this situation . I hope the US increases the tariffs more

For business fools that would disagree. maybe you would understand from business perspective when you have your own business and you’re a partner in a real business deal

Lolz. Hope you know China is one of the biggest market for Apple products.

You think the Chinese government is daft? If Apple and other American manufacturing firms make that mistake of moving out of China arrogantly, the CCP have many ways of screwing them over....High tariff is one.

USA and their assets, like every other country are also vulnerable.
So you think you’ know more than Apple that has made it official publicly they’re moving to India? That would mean job cut for china and revenue loss. The IPhone factory left in china will only produce for Chinese market.

Apple is America company not Chinese. I hope you know that.

oga Chinese export to US only accounts for 15% of total Chinese global export. If I were China, I will stop doing business with US ,and watch how US will suffer more starvation
You see what you don’t know is that, the 15% export to the US most likely makes more dollars or money for China than the remaining 85% they sell to the rest of the world where most countries are third world poor countries.

How many people in your country can afford Chinese made wears made for American market?

BRICS is made for a day like this and are only waiting for a moment like this to strike and Trump fell in the trap . The BRICS are economy powerhouse in their continent and no other countries can do without any of them. If BRICS nation dump the USD for bilateral trade did you know the US dollars will lose its dominance like how the pounds lost its in the post WW2 . If you follow the global grin grin economy and history you will know that America has just destroyed itself
Do you know that 50 of all countries Trump put tariffs on have begged to negotiate with Trump, including india. BRIC is a political symbolism that can’t pay the bills of their member states in terms of trade. No BRIC nation already having access to the largest dollar market in the world would throw that away for some low currency market BRIC nations. Please learn how international trades work

Na so e dey take easy, India is part of BRICS so apple will need to trade with Indian in Rupees and secondly India is also affected by the tarrif and they will possibly follow the Chinese way by imposing almost 34% tarrif on US products. It's a win win situation for China as we speak
You’re just making things up. India being part of BRICS doesn’t mean anything to US/Indian trade relations. India is the 7th largest trading partner of the US. The US is the number one trading partner to India not Russia and every trade is in dollars . Modi the prime minister of India was at the White House last month to kiss Trump ring. BRIC is a toothless dog

You say, okay they will move out to just to satisfy the US which is on 4% of the global trade whereby the BRICS nation made 56% and with the likes of Nigeria becoming a major member soon expect them to make 65-70% grin grin
. Nobody is moving out of China anytime soon even the US companies like Apple and Boeing who has their major production line in China. And most investors won't trust a bully Trump with their business again
You need to be up to date on your news. Apple has said this morning they’re moving production to India. Wait for other companies to follow. Dey there grin

American markets is dependent on Chinese, else goods made in America would not be able to purchase such goods because of taxes and cost of production. Trump is a dumb businessman and not economist.

Raise taxes on goods, it will be paid by your consumers. Because it is simple for suppliers to raise prices etc. it is a slippery slope for Trump. But ego won’t let him call it off! So the bull in a china shop story goes on..
Not every tax on goods will be paid by consumers. It will get to a limit consumers will abandon the product all together and the manufacturers won’t be able to transfer it. Then their manufacturing go bankrupt while other manufacturers would relocate like Apple is moving manufacturing out of china to India now . That’s where china would find itself eventually

But if you disagree
Please elaborate your position
Thank you
What started all these tariff war in the first place was the trade imbalance between the US and most countries. Trump is using tariffs to correct it. This wasn’t started over tariff rather over trade imbalance.

Surplus between EU and the US would be subject to tariffs

Zero for Zero is not bad

But in such an arrangement
America go still lose
So I wonder if trump will take it
It would be zero to zero on industrial good with trade balance. If EU exports $10billion worth of industrial goods, the US would export the same amount. Any surplus between the two countries over the other would not be allowed

Every government worldwide is caring for her peoples. Nigeria should do same. Nigeria politician and civil servants should stop stealing the nigeria dollars to the white man country. Na your own be your own. Even the white men dem get colour! Love your own , build your own!
Exactly. People are crying fowl when these countries are the ones reaping the US of with tariffs to start with.

These are the tariffs they charge the US compared to the little the US is charging them back. Only a fool would think the US is the bully here. These US is only changing them half of what they charge the US and they’re still crying .

The orange column is the retaliatory US tariff. Humans have this entitlement mentality that because you’re rich, you should allow others to rip you off

You were making sense until you called me deranged! You are very stupid for that. Are you American? If you are not mind your business! This is my country 28 years counting. You people will be insulting and cursing people over a country that is probably not yours.
I could have educated your empty head but I don't engage people that are disrespectful . Get your silly and dirty ass moving all these NL kids that lack good up bringing. At the end of the day you have probably never stepped at an airport. Animal!
. I didn’t call you deranged. Rather, I called you Trump deranged which you absolutely are like most of liberals. So there’s a difference. Trump would soon start giving out the DOGE checks. While you would take it, I’m sure you would not praise Trump for it and still find every reason to say giving out the check is a bad idea because you’re Trump deranged like most of your leftists cults are

Who is it that I don't understand? Most of you comment without even thinking about the location of the person. Yes America is bigger economy but the two of them needs each other. You believe Trump's gimmick about trade deficit. The office I work handle all that.
With your bias mind I don't even know how to explain further.
Canada trade deficits is real bro. It’s not Trump gimmick. You lost me when you downplayed Canada having trade surplus over the US calling it Trump gimmick. It’s not and Canada knows it.

It doesn’t matter where you work at. Maybe just a bunch of Trump deranged liberals working together. Every corporate America has been infiltrated with Trump deranged liberals screwing up America. There is a lot of you like that


You got to be a liberal that thinks because Trump does it, it mean we don’t have to agree with it even good stuff.

Thunderfayamods:
If Trump wants level playing grounds dialogue is supposed to be the best approach not gragra and bullying. With dialogue both countries can come to an agreement after all they are allies
In this case, dialogue would be meant for Canada to reduce it’s tariffs on the US or reduce its trade with the US their number one trade destination as Canada is the one enjoying trade surplus which is not fair to the US. There should be trade balance between the two countries which Canada doesn’t want because through their trade surplus the US single handedly subsidizes Canada economy. Thats why Trump said if Canada survival depends on unfair trade with the US, they should become 51st state of the US . By so doing, they won’t have to pay any tariffs again

Now the US is saying, since you don’t want to reduce tariffs on us or balance the trade between us , we will have to do the needful to balance the unfair trade by Canada.

That’s the only thing dialogue can produce and which Canada doesn’t want. They believe since the US is a bigger economy, the US should take all their shit while they become the crying baby looking for sympathy but doesn’t want to do what’s fair for both parties because it benefits him.

The US doesn’t need Canada. Canada needs the US for economic survival. That’s exactly what’s going on that most of you don’t understand

God1000:
Prime Minister Mark Carney’s words are not only justified, they are necessary, Canada has every right to defend its sovereignty, its economy, and its people from reckless Trump and Musk.

Canada is right to fight back, because standing tall in the face of economic aggression is not just defending trade; it’s defending dignity.


Treating your neighbor with contempt and disdain has consequences

Canada is even bigger than US in terms of landmass, and the lunatic wants to annex the country

America elected a failed reality TV host whose show got cancelled and who then had to seek other opportunities.
The same way other west African countries want handouts from Nigeria and if Nigeria pay them back with their coin, they would complain, Canada is doing the same to the US and now the US is paying them back with their own coin, just 25% tariff, Canada is crying.

Canada has been exploiting the US on tariffs for decades. Now Trump is saying ok we have had enough. There must be a level playing ground henceforth

WriterNig:
With the way the US brags about being a super power, you'd think it will be them supplying electricity to Canada.

Even Nigeria that they look down on supplies other African countries with electricity.

Ordinary electricity. At this point the US isn't even a regional power, Canada is.

Because with just one click, the whole of the US will be thrown into darkness, into stone age.

From Trump's rant you'll know that Canada is the biggest player in North America and the US relies on them for everything.

They couldn't even put off their wildfires without Canada's help.
Texas is not even connected to the US national grid let alone Canada. Texas locally generates its own electricity in the state of Texas and I believe several other states do the same . The US electricity supply is diversified. Only little is coming from Canada.

If this is happening in other countries now, mad man of America would have blacklisted the country.
There’re more active planes in the US sky both commercial and private everyday than any country in the world. So probability of crashes is higher there.

All the planes in the whole of Africa do not reach 10% of planes in the US alone. It’s just mathematical sense.

Also the plane was a privately owned plane. Maintenance is up to the owner to evade crash.
