We can all see where buhari and osinbajo have led us to. Pls continue singing their praises as they keep surpassing their failures

and I thought u were wiser than this
you of all people should know dat the price of aviation fuel or any fuel aside petrol has little to nothing to do with govt. as it is an imported product whose price is determined by where ever marketers get the product from(international price)

if the prices soar to N1,000 the airlines will have to adjust their air ticket prices in respect to the price of their fuel.
or are u indirectly saying FG should now subsidize aviation fuel for airlines to operate.
of all the 200 million folks in nigeria , how many people fly that Govt should intervene with subsidies.

The only thing u can use to bash government is on forex not aviation price fuel price.
it is also unwise for u to use the excuse of not producing the product locally through our refineries as a reason for the soar in, as it is obvious it will still sell close to that price. cuz refineries will buy crude at the international price and sell it derivatives at the same inter national price.except u want govt to spend more and subsidize just like the way 3 trillion is spent to subsidize petrol

So peter Obi is coming to place all his priorities on education?...

Don't get me wrong..
But there are far too many educated people roaming about the street and to very few that are able to make us of their skills are being tormented by the realities of Nigeria...

If he is coming to focus on education to produce more qualified graduates...

Then he should rest..

Our problem now is electricity..
Provide electricity and even the illiterate will be able to fair better for themselves...

Education can wait..what the point getting fully educated if u can't use ur skills in Nigeria only to fly abroad and work...

Pls..any candidate that isnt consigned about fixing power should rest..

Electricity will solve no less than 30% of Nigeria's problem from security to economy to education...

For education..all we need to do is to settle ASUU for now

Kwestionair:
Keep yapping in the nonsense. The people that have had president for years has your region faired any better?
Nigeria is not working and the people know it and some people have risen up to ask you to conduct a referendum for the people of Nigeria to vote if they still want to be a part of the of this British failed experiment and you are calling them unprintable names.
Shame on black people especially zombies, cursed people.

Lol..
Leave security cuz we all know virtually everybody is feeling the heat ..

Can u technically compare the investment in the SE by this government to SW and north?

If I believe a referendum will ever be conducted..you think I will type that long thing..

Look weather u believe it or not ..Nigeria isn't going to split or divide or do shit ..except ur day dreaming..
EU won't do it ..ECOWAS ,UN ,USA and all the names u minions call won't look ur side...

It better u wake up from ur slumber and fix what is wrong with each and every one of us in this country...

The country isn't working not because It not supposed to or it should work by itself...it because we have refused to make it work..

There is nothing mysteriously wrong with Nigeria..
Provide reliable power, provide infrastructure and deal with security..and everything will fair better ..

If u oduduwa republic, 9jadelta, Biafra etc form today..and there is still not light, bad roads, doctors and lecturers are still being owed..it doesn't make any of them better...

Luckily this government has failed in all but infrastructure...if another government can come and fix power and security.. our problems will be less...

There are alot of other countries worst than us weather British colonized or American colonized.....and even the world itself isn't working

The more we keep our focus on unnecessary things dat deep down we know it won't work the more we prolong are problems.. Biafra isn't going to come ..it has become very obvious today and even tomorrow..
When SE decided to ignore their obvious problem In their land and focus on a mere dream through IPOB...has it not done more harms to Dem


Bros ..rest

Don’t be an Ekpa.

I am a Niger Deltan.
Pure breed.
Deep down in your heart,has Nigerian been fair with the Igbo?No.

I still don’t support their menace and NK can’t lose his Citizenship.

Nigeria hasnt been unfair to anyone...
You cant rip where u did not sow


Politically and structurally speaking the major reason for this agitation is cuz no Igbo man has been made to lead this country since the civil war
..
For that the Igbos have PDP to blaim for all their woos...

Igbo people literally dedicated their sweat for that party and for 20 years they never thought of repaying the SE back with an igbo man as presido..

Kanu built upon that greviance and started agitating for nonsense

..
Even in this up coming election Igbos are still confused and are not making any effort at all to get power.. u think someone will just transfer power to am Igbo man?...IPOB has completely rendered the SE useless as they don't have capacity to vote anymore because of UGM

The peter obi everybody is barking about..have u seen him on any substantial consultation visit outside SE...or does he think he is going to lead SE only when he is president?
..or you think it is his grammar and theory that will make every one from different ethnicity to support him?..

We are still joking..
And you want APC dat has their support from south west and north to abandon their region and bring in a south east candidate?...

This is common sense...
The problem of the SE is 75% caused by PDP...

When PDP ruled for 16years from the sweat of SE...dey couldn't commission even borehole or give substantial appointment neither did dey try balancing the politics of the SE by creating another state...

APC took over in 2015...and see how they rewarded their region of best interest with infrastructure and appointment..forget say Dem spoil the economy...do u now think SW and north will now dump APC?...

When buhari called SE 5% it wasn't as a matter of hatred..
So after PDP has scamed SE for 20 years..u now think they can come and expect APC to do what PDP didn't?
This has absolutely nothing to do with Nigeria...
This is pure politics ...SE has been scammed...
Now u see bastards like ikpeazu supporting another Fulani man (atiku) to lead again..
Were u deaf when senator abaribe after all the cruis had the gut to still support atiku even the Peter Obi did d same. now u nwazurike ..leader of MASSOB has joined to support yahaya bello ..a Muslim and a northerner...
..and u now come and say it nigeria's fault...

Can u see that level of foolishness in APC?..

Look I am also Igbo ...but I won't say because of ethnicity..I won't reason critically..
It best we leave this politics of a thing and focus on our strength (business)

PointB:
Of course we know the perpetrators are most likely from Nigeria security force. If it's true that both late couples were already married (with children) before embarking on this new wedding adventure, despite the wish of their superiors, friends, and colleaggues, then potentially they would have made capable enemies, with motives, both within and outside the force. Enemies who knows their movement enough to track them and off them.

Unfortunately, due to the obvious lack of intelligence coupled with laziness and inadequacy of equipments in the Nigerian security force investigative department, it's easy to quickly pile these inside wicked and dastardly acts on IPOB, whom they love to hate.

Nigeria security services should look for the enemies within in this case, and in many other similar cases. They should get their ass up and do their job. Blaming IPOB every time is simply lazy.

Before IPOB, before UGM, before Boko Haram, and skull miners, there were routine murders, and revenge killings all over Nigeria. Only dimwitted urchins will buy the Army finger pointing at IPOB for all manners of malfeasance.

Rubbish

...like u don't know it the trade of IPOB to murder security officers and they openly boast of it..

Besides..
Did u ask ur sef the fraction of IPOB denying this..cuz we all know there is a branch under DOS and a rogue minor section under Simon ekpa(autopilot)

In all ...this crime has IPOB written all over it.

AuthoritySpeaks:
So, my phone got stolen last week and inside it is my major sim card that I have been using for over 6years.

The line in question is linked to my NIN but the initial Sim registration was done by someone else. I no longer have the sim pack as well.
Ps: I bought the sim as already registered.

So, i went for a welcome-back last week Saturday in MTN Head-Office at UWANI, ENUGU and the guy at the desk told me that since the initial sim registration was done by someone else, that they will have to contact their Lagos office for approval to welcome-back the sim and the whole process will cost me #10,000.
In that same office, my friend did his welcome back two weeks ago for #1k.
A part of me felt that the guy wants to just make extra cash from be because it was just him and another customer service that is sitted far from him that were working that very day.
But I want to be sure if his claims are true.

Pls if you have had any experience like this, enlighten me.
What I want to know is if it will cost that much to welcome back your sim if it wasn't registered to your name even if it is linked to your NIN.
Have you done any welcome back like that?

I had this painful experience with my Airtel sim which I have used for 6 years too..
Sim got stolen with my phone..

Went to Airtel office and called their customer care they both claimed there is nothing that can be done since the name on the registered sim doesn't tally with my NIN..don't bother wasting ur time..
Ur sim is gone except u have ur sim pack

seyoops4u:
Ooh..
But the Government can open their mouth wide and ask Twitter to be registered in Nigeria thereby collecting tax.

[s]Let pay too na. By the time all the gov parastatals on Twitter are billed for using the app, it would make sense and balance.[/s]

Oga stop advertising ur ignorance ...
Twitter rakes millions of dollars through ads places on their site by Nigerian businesses..

It odd for them to keep making money from both local buinesses and users and still not pay tax to the host country...

How can people pay Twitter to put up ads and Twitter still still want users to pay to view those ads...isn't that madness...

No wahala..
I hope he buys whatapp and YouTube and implement the same strategy on users...since u no get sense..

It makes sense. If anyone doesn't like it, go and develop your own app and get people all over the world to start using it for free. Na you go still tire.

[s]Twitter pays lots of workers to keep improving its services and keep the network secure.
[/s]

And when Twitter was still under Jack ,used for free and still paying it staff...did he tell u he was complaining ..

So users in what ever form should pay to see the ads which Twitter uses to generate billions?
Am not sure u know what a social media is
Rubbish

But when Government come to tax Dem heavily for free operations in Nigeria...u will raise ur throat against bubu

This one na protest?

Abeg make una rest

Kigali is far better than Abuja, why are you brushing sanitation aside, is Abuja the zoo capital?

Am not brushing sanitation aside .
Abuja is the most properly maintained city in west Africa..but Kigali is ahead on dat part..

Over all In terms of economy of both cities, jobs , serenity,landscape, landmass, skyline ,roads ,rail and everything that makes up a city..

Once you put all in consideration...Abuja is slightly ahead..

D only thing I will give Kigali for is power and cleanliness

Tobijays:
dangote dont own more than 35 percent of d refinery banks own some NNPC own some too and some individuals

No one said he does..

We are talking about the entire worth of the company if it were to be sold..

Definitely if musk should buy it ..
Every one with a share in it go chop

Missionaire:
Obviously, you don't know what a conglomerate is.

It called Dangote groups...and it is a conglomerate itself
And involves several groups..

In all .. combining all the companies/group under dangote groups as a conglomerate..it should surpass $40bn..(not sure though)

U should note dat dangote refinery (a single group) alone worth $19bn

(Fixed)

Missionaire:
There is nothing like "Dangote Company", Mate.
Except you're combining all or some of the companies under the Dangote Conglomerate, I may be wrong, but not one of them can be bought for $40B.

It called Dangote groups...and it is a conglomerate itself
And involves several groups..

In all .. combining all the companies/group under dangote groups as a conglomerate..it should surpass $40bn..

U should note dat dangote refinery (a single group) alone worth $19bn

Burruchaga71:
Even Dangote him self did not worth $40 billion

The Op said company not individual..

Dangote doesn't own 100% of dangote groups..

And yes..the only company dat will come close is Dangote groups..
Dangote groups has atleast 4 group
*Dangote salt
*Dangote cement
*Dangote refinery
*Dangote sugar
*Dangote fertilizer

The refinery alone is worth atleast $19bn almost $20bn and it not even in operation yet..

.am pretty sure when u add all the 9+ cement plants operated across Africa.., his sugar , petrochemical and fertilizer plants..it should be around $21bn or more

Coly2012:
Igbo people can't envy Lagos cus Igbo made Lagos what it's today to a large extent. You don't envy what you built, you only admire it.

Igbo people built Lagos but couldn't build Aba

That second picture na scam.. doesn't exist anywhere in kenya

nony43:
No be joke, our Abuja can not stand toe to toe with Kigali and Nairobi

Abuja is better than Kigali by far aside the proper sanitation..

Nairobi..I will admit..Abuja still dey learn

subsidywise18:
Like I said

1.We pay for power at a price below production

2.Which means DISCOS and GENCOS run at a loss

3.No money to fix things

4.Hence in darkness.

We have a working GSM sector because we pay the price the GSM companies set.

Likewise, you can buy foodstuff at the market because the trader is allowed to set his price, and make enough profit to pay supplier.

Power sector does not have that benefit.

Backbencher..

Is dat really you?

Why should it be electrified?..

To encourage vandals...
The fact is there isnt a major advantage in the trains powered by electricity dat u will still buy diesel generator or provide some sort of power plant that will run on gas or diesel...cuz no way that thing will get power from NEPA..

WHY NOT JUST RUN DIESEL TRAINS ON IT...

Aside little emissions..there is no major advantage or sophistication in electric trains..you will get the same comfort in a modern diesel train..

or is it the current prices of diesel


And even if their intentions were to make it electric why the sanwo olu purchase two diesel trains abroad .

Alot of things aren't clear here

jojo1415:
No wonder the economy is in shambles and people r suffering....useless govt that can't manage its resources

Borrowing debt nd paying back has little impact on the economy...

We are simply suffering In terms of economy because of the low forex reserves due to a consuming nation Rather than a producing one

matm:
Why is it dt no one is asking how much Nigeria gets from crude oil sale daily multiplied by 365days a year?
What of money from taxes and rates,tarrifs on on calls etc daily?
Why then are we borrowing?
Can't Nigeria govt leverage on technology to generate more than enough revenue for d country?
With bvn alone, annual normal tax per citizen can be deducted resulting in trillions? It can equally be done through gsm lines.
Nigerian govt shld pls engage young guys with digital skill tech to help digitalise and automate revenue generation for govt.and stop borrowing .
we have no reason to borrow for we are blessed aside corruption

There is no sin in borrowing..

And the good thing is dat we are paying back little by little..

Tax collection is pretty digital these days...
The only obvious way to increase tax revenue today is to increase tax rate...
And you should know dat a vast majority of the tax especially VAT goes to states and LGA..

In terms of oil revenue...no one knows the actual figure..but our 2022 budget is 17 trillion...and there is a debt deficit of 6 trillion...
Which means the FG can conveniently generate 11 trillion
..You should know that dat would have been way higher inshort by an extra 3 trillion if we didn't have to subsidize fuel...

Meaning
. assuming we don't subsidize fuel
.out of 17 trillion.we can generate atleast 14 trillion and borrow only 3..

Mind u ..most country in the world do not fulfill their entire budget from their revenue alone

SWATMan:
I doubt if you know what it means to work at decision making level in a high profile establishment like the efcc. He could have gone for a vacation without posting a selfie on the net! It is irresponsible. None of his predecessors did that.

Exactly so the public outcry should be to towards the fact that he posted it not .typing rubbish dat he shouldn't have a life

I admit dat most people at his level do not post their day out not necessarily because it wrong but because of the cynical mindset of the masses..

Read and my previous mentions

I'm pained that a common alimajiri can't even eat three days meal yet the elites waste tax payers money on fruitless trip


comparing your chairman with USA president that don't leave his country with taxpayers money on fruitless trip shows how empty you're upstairs



I pray your kids don't share from this your 2kb IQ

Fruitless trip?..

U think every trip these elite makes yield fruit or are in any way relevant?..
Lol

Politicians waste tax payers money traveling to countries to read scripts and return..Biden inclusive..

When trump was in power...u know how many times he goes on vacation to in his home state?..

Look Mr..you have no valid point..

Even the fruitless Job u are into that keeps u from dying...

Everyday you always take a break for yourself..how to spend that break is no one's buiness..

If the EFCC boss feels going to watch a football match is worth his break den u can go hang urself cuz he doesn't give a Bleep..

Besides..every job which is at the same level of bawa in Nigeria and abroad gives you that entitlement and benefit.. if just dat some people don't make it public what dey use it for...

So rest oga
