While Tinubu can't be as bad as Buhari as President, it's still a shame that only those who seem to be close to death are being considered for President. How Atiku is still in this President conversation baffles me!! |
God1000:Not the best options available to Nigeria, but I'd choose Bola Tinubu any day. He has a far better sense of business than Goodluck and that's what we need now to get the economy moving FDI increased and people employed. Besides Goodluck has been tested before and he failed woefully. What else can he do differently now? He will come there and fail again, despite seeing how he failed now that he's been out of government for a while. |
Arewa1stSon:Simple but very functional design!! Note sure there is anything like this in Lagos metropolis other than maybe Tejuosho. We need a bit of modernity in our markets. If rain catches you in Jakande market, it's so disgusting how everywhere turns to roforofo. And most local markets are like that. It's about time we improved our local market experience. |
Gate050:If someone bought slot, what kind of quality work can he be doing to deserve receiving salary. Using one criminality to justify another. |
Tpharell: |
Mom007:So your issue should be with accountability not the tax. They are two distinct issues. |
Layi4real:Dude in July 2020 petrol in Houston US was $1.55per gallon. Then crude prices had fallen to about $20. In late 2021 it went as high as $3.05 (97% increase) due to crude prices hitting $80. In Nigeria we went from N145 To N125 ba? Then back up to N164, which is 31%increase. |
Tpharell:Dude there is a difference between LPG and LNG, however subtle. We export LNG but not LPG. NLNG plant in Bonny produces some LPG, but insufficient for local demand. The rest is imported. And that imported bit is what has been affected by sharp increase in has prices in 2021. NLNG company in Bonny was never set up to produce LPG. No matter the volume of gas that passes through NLNG, if they never had the capacity for LPG, then so be it. |
Deltafirstson:Which nonsense celebrated all over the world. Abeg Park well! Jonathan and his PDP were just as incompetent and corrupt as Buhari and his APC. The reality is that government has little to do directly with gas prices. As anyone who reads international news will know Europe has a huge gas crisis for most of 2021 and gas prices spiked in Europe significantly. Since a good portion of our LPG is imported, coupled with deregulation it compounded the price locally. Once winter in Europe passes, the gas prices will trend downwards and that is what you are beginning to see in the price now. I know times are hard and the high cost of LPG is biting the pocket, but that should not stop us from proper understanding of the dynamics of pricing and making educated and reasoned comments here. |
Not sure what the fuss is all about. NLC should go and sit down. The duty is N10 per liter. So for the typical 33cl which most of us drink, that is additional N3. I don't think additional N3 or even N10 will stop a decision to buy a soft drink. It's not like we all drink a coke every day. |
HgsMediaPlus:Good idea by the LASG to concession it out. I am a firm believer that government assets such as Airports, Stadiums, National Theater, Parks,etc should be concessioned or fully privatized. Capacity of private sector vs government to manage is like night and day. Take MM2 and MMIA as an example. MM2 has arguably got better in the time it was built to now cos they have added some new features. The same cannot be same of MMIA that continually looks shabby, overcrowded, dirty and depressing. If I had a choice, I'd prefer to take an international flight from MM2 rather than MMIA. Back to Glover Hall, Olu Jacobs company can do theatre shows there on some weekend, while on other weekends they can rent out for weddings ( I actually had my wedding reception there like 13 years ago). They should enter into agreements for some multi story carparks in the vicinity for parking arrangements and get police cover when they have activities there cos of area boys and don't be surprised that they will be smiling to the bank. |
The House looks rather crappy, particularly for banana island. I thought he bought something from Sujimoto before?? So most likely na rent ![]() |
EcoBrick:Show us picture of the real port na!! Not this fake, computer generated picture. In Nigeria something can be 95% complete for 10 years |
But really, for what we pay as school fees, where does the money to pay people to clean it, provide the cleaning products regularly come from? We are getting the N50k per session education that we pay for. In Nigeria of today, if anyone thinks N50k per student for 12 months can keep a whole University running, then something is wrong upstairs. And many FG universities probably don't charge up to that. There is no magic to these things. Its costs money that is not there To prove me wrong, someone should show me toilets from Covenant University that are in similar state |
Buhari is not intellectually capable of running an LG, much less President of Nigeria. |
This is why they typically don't let Buhari go near TV interview or debate. |
Your President said "the farms that produce tractors..." The guys brain has truly lost it. I can now see why he is being easily manipulated by his handlers. The guy has no thinking capacity of his own. He has no specific vision for any sector of the economy and country. He cannot fathom a process of getting anything done. No doubt about it, Nigeria has wasted 8 years!! No matter how bad Atiku is, he couldn't be as bad as Buhari. |
NwaNimo1:Na 8 hours be no joke?? What 99% of Nigerians do daily?? As a President of a country like Nigeria that is falling apart, the President should be working like 15hours a day. |
She's just playing with words. What's sack and what is exit package? Why would you be paying an exit package if someone isn't leaving? The govt should man up and say so. |
caracas:You are the one who is being rather shallow! Everyone knows that the civil service is massively over bloated and unproductive |
Jack005:Tough decision, but the right one! Nigeria's civil service is grossly overstaffed, with many of them doing little to nothing. Technology and computers have made it possible to do with much less people. Can you imagine the number of secretaries still in civil service, when in most private companies secretaries are almost extinct, since you can type by yourself on laptops and send to printer or scan in a jiffy. Too much of government work is paper pushing , file carrying and is not productive and is archaic!! |
Buhari = Minister of Petroleum Kyari = CEO NNPC Hausa man = CFO And then they still have their 3 regional representatives. OK o!! |
omenkaLives:NNPC hadn't been privatised before now, so why wondering why it hadn't worked?? Nepa is a peculiar case because transmission is messed up, energy theft is massive, tariffs are not cost reflective etc. |
Basicend:You'll be surprised what a man can do when he finally has proper executive power!! It's not about making noise. There is a way a quiet man with executive power will look at you and quietly give you order and you will know that if it's not 100% complied with, he will sack you the following day or remove you from that post straightaway. By the time he does that to a few people, everybody around him will sit up. |
Deputy1111:The two most important parts of the equation for Osinbajo are Tinubu and Buhari! if both support him, then his chances are very good. I suspect Buhari may support Osinbajo, but if Tinubu really wants to become President, it will be very hard for Osinbajo. For all Buhari's influence as president, at the party level Tinubu in APC is equally as influential in the SW as Buhari is in the North. It would remain to be seen if APC as a party would align behind Osinbajo if Tinubu wants to contest. The best thing though is for Tinubu to realize that he is too old and already rich enough for President. Tinubu may be more useful enjoying himself and coordinating things from the background. Unfortunately the greed of Nigerian politicians knows no bounds. As rich as Tinubu is, even with private jet, he still wants to enjoy Presidential privileges of jet, Aso rock and free medical care abroad, all of which he can really afford himself. |
Pretty good list. It would be good if you could create this as a 250 Top Nigeria Greatest Songs playlistbon Deezer and are the link. I'd certainly listen to such a playlist, but though you may not get all the songs online. Personally though I'd exclude most of the music from 200 to 250, except for Asa. Most of the PSquare, Burna, Wizzy, Olamide etc music has no meaning except for street Boys. The older generation of music from 200 below, one could distinctly hear the lyrics and appreciate what was being said. Too much of music today is just senseless words for the sake of rhyming. |
stepaside2:Are you minding him? Classic example of how the ignorant embarrass themselves saying nonsense! |
They should publish full details of this budget if they get mind. Getting to see the details of Lagos state budget has been almost impossible since 1999. Even Budgit cannot get it, yet they publish the federal budget. |
Shokoloko:I disagree cos what the world manufactures most these days have some form of chips or electronics in it that requires a better brain these days. The days of manufacturing industrial goods are almost over. These days the biggest manufacturing is phones, chips, and so on. Everything has circuitry these days to connect to the internet such as ac, fridge, microwave, freezer, tv, smart speakers, gaming consoles, phones, even bulbs etc. not the dumb products of yesteryear. Not stuff you want to entrust to an idiot to manufacture cos the stakes are high. Besides like I said the choice of manufacturing is beyond labor. Lack of electricity is enough to disqualify Nigeria when compared to Ghana or Ivory Coast. |
rentAcock:I like your enthusiasm, unfortunately it is very much misplaced. Companies want an environment with good infrastructure to manufacture (electricity, ports, transportation network, rule of law, judicial fairness, airports, exchange rate stability etc) and Nigeria has none of these! Also our youth are literate but companies need more than that. They need well educated and we don’t have that unfortunately. A primary 6 person from US, is mentally sharper and more aware than a ss3 student from here, cos our education doesn’t encourage thinking - just cramming and passing exams. No application. There are many countries in Africa that will attract the so called billions from Amazon and co such as Ghana, SA, Rwanda, Morocco, Egypt, Kenya before Nigeria. |
donofdons:Very valid question!! |
Smartini:Are these reputable Dutch and Belgian companies nameless?? How about you name them, so we know which companies you are referring to. Projects are abandoned everywhere because government does not pay its bills as at when due, not because JB is over stretched. |
