Politics › Re: Why Do Nigerians Think The Naira Deserves To Be Anywhere Close To The Dollar? by Commentor: 7:18am On May 31, 2025
Zionmdde:
All you guys do is to call youths lazy.
Youths weren't lazy when tinubu led apc were asking Nigerians if $1 to N215 was OK?

You sound naive sha but I won't delve in much.
1st exchange rate won't have gotten to 1600 had tinubu shut his mouth on the handover day, assemble his economic team, sustained subsidy payment while supporting dangote to fast track commencement of production. Once dangote refinery starts, remove subsidy. With that, dollar wouldn't have exceeded 500

Secondly, there is so much corruption that have led to abandoned projects that single handedly could have projected Nigeria's economy
Go to brass, go to ajaokuta, go to ikot abasi and see how trillions of naira investment were abandoned. There are lots of things Nigeria has no business importing, so you guys should stop calling people lazy.
What are the things we should not be importing?

Name 5.

Dear OP, if you know the volume of mineral resources asides crude oil leaving Nigeria everyday that doesn't reflect on our trade balancesheet. Naira should be very close to the dollar. Nigeria is being r@ped daily and our leaders are quiet because of their greed.
How much do you think Nigerian production is worth annually?

SpatialKing:
While it’s true that some insurance companies may limit coverage in high-risk areas, many homeowners in states like Texas still obtain protection through government-backed programs such as the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). Though private insurers may hesitate, federal support helps ensure compensation is available. So, it's not entirely accurate to say most people receive no compensation many do, especially those with proper flood insurance in place.
From Quora:

If a hurricane destroys / damages your house you’re pretty much SOL. After Hurricane Katrina the insurance companies almost universally found reasons to exclude coverage and if they couldn’t exclude coverage they limited coverage. Many people had to sue their insurance companies to get any semblance of coverage. There was little government help either from the state or the feds for the vast majority of people. The state of Louisiana did create the road home program to help people rebuild and with housing costs but I did not qualify. Unfortunately for a lot of recipients the program has sued them to recover costs that the government claims should not have been paid out. After Katrina I spent my own money to repair my house but I did get a little bit of money from my insurance company to replace the fence. Of course they tried to depreciate the fence almost down to zero but fortunately I had receipts from when I had the fence installed two years prior.


Yet another from Quora:

It depends on your insurance. Flood damage is not generally covered by standard home owners and auto policies, but wind damage is, so, after a hurricane, you often see fights between insurers and insurees about whether the damage came from the water or the winder. There are flood and hurricane-specific policies, many of which are provided or subsidized by states that get a lot of hurricanes (or else no one could afford insurance). There are often hurricane relief bills passed after big hurricanes passed by the US Congress, but these deal with immediate necessities and some form of relief. I knew a woman who got $5k from FEMA after a hurricane hit her area and destroyed her home. She gambled it away at the Marriott Casino nearby. She lives with family (much to her son-in-law’s chagrin).
Foreign Affairs › Supreme Court Allows Trump Strip 500,000 Migrants Of Legal Status by Commentor(op): 3:42pm On May 30, 2025
Breaking News:

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court on Friday again cleared the way for the Trump administration to strip temporary legal protections from hundreds of thousands of immigrants, pushing the total number of people who could be newly exposed to deportation to nearly 1 million.

The justices lifted a lower-court order that kept humanitarian parole protections in place for more than 500,000 migrants from four countries: Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela. The court has also allowed the administration to revoke temporary legal status from about 350,000 Venezuelan migrants in another case.


Republican President Donald Trump promised on the campaign trail to deport millions of people, and in office has sought to dismantle Biden administration polices that created ways for migrants to live legally in the U.S.

Trump amplified false rumors that Haitian immigrants in Ohio with legal status under the humanitarian parole program were abducting and eating pets during his only debate with President Joe Biden, according to court documents.

His administration filed an emergency appeal to the Supreme Court after a federal judge in Boston blocked the administration’s push to end the program.

Justice Kentanji Brown Jackson wrote in dissent that the effect of the court’s order is “to have the lives of half a million migrants unravel all around us before the courts decide their legal claims.” Justice Sonia Sotomayor joined the dissent.

All those Demages including cars and properties are covered by Issuance it doesn't who you are..

Watch how the county will fix all the traffic lights and other Demages within hours after the flood...

Texas their septic tanks and pipes are well sealed and secured those floods are rarely populated..

Solid Waste are well trashed the flood doesn't come with populated waste...
I know you meant insurance but you are wrong.

Many states that endure natural disasters are often avoided by insurance companies.

So, many would get no compensation.

DesChyko:
This is very weird. We actually want to go band for band between the flooding in Lekki and the flooding in Houston? The forecasts and early warnings? The preparations? The government budget and intervention plans?

You can take the man from the corn field, but you can't take the corn out of the man.

That's how one was mouthing off about how Chicago is a cesspit with gun violence..yet, Chicago has an average life expectancy of 70 years for the blacks there while Nigeria wallows at 56 years.
Which preparation?

The only thing US has going for it, is its history.

Since the world became more levelled on the basis of information, it has become clear that the US is actually lagging behind in many indices.

In terms of Infrastructure, US is quite anachronistic.

FEMA, the Emergency Management Agency is about to be defunded, and states would be wholly responsible for managing disasters.

Watch how much bad news would come out of North Carolina and Oklahoma.
