favor914: This your maths no jive o. For charges to be N1mln, you need 20,000 (N1,000,000 /50) transactions. |

Fulgur: Its not backdating anything. The law was in place and signed by Buhari on 1st Jan 2021!! FIRS simply didn't enforce it for the foreign currency transactions the way they did for naira! Back dating is when you sign a law today and say it should impact transactions from 2021!! There is no case of backdating in this one. 1 Like |

I can bet 99% of folks here between Jan 2021 and now who have domm account haven't received up to 30credits into that account, which is N1500! Even if you work remotely and paid every month, max that's 36 credits in your account, which is N1, 800. Basically a charge of $1.50 for 3 years!! 1 Like |

Tealcrestmedia: So even if said widow received $100 a month since then, that amounts to $3600 since then. At a average rate of say $/750, in that time she has received circa N2.7mln. But she will be asked to pay N1,800. That's 0.06%!!! So N1,800 in the context of N2.7mln is the issue? What is wicked bout N1.8k!? ($1.50) You all want Nigeria to be like America and Britain. Common tax of N1.8k una no fit pay. |

RenaissanceGuy: Calm down na! You'd need 20,000 seperate dollar transactions to mount to N1mln. Even oil companies probably don't have, 20,000 credits in their accounts in that time. No need to over senstionlize the matter! 1 Like |

Politics / Re: NNPC Denies Dispute With Marketers, Says Subsidy ‘Entirely Removed’ by COMPAQ(m): 9:16am On Jan 04 |
UncleKoboko: I'm curious what Nairalanders have the bigger problm with. Is it the lie or the fact that there is still subsidy. If it is truely a lie, how does it benefit you if they tell the 'truth' that their is subsidy. If N600 petrol is indeed a subsidized price, are you then happier to pay an unsubsidized price of N900? By the way if diesel is N1080 using $/N1250, shouldn't NNPC's petrol be cheaper at $/N890? Of Course NNPC operates at the offical rate, not black market. Maybe not as cheap as N600, but certainly not N1200. Cos i've not seen any country I have travelled to, where petrol was more expensive than diesel.

bdon123: Even the Good beach is too small o jere. Not more than 100m width. Different people have just segmented small, small portions of that stretch to be doing beach. A real beach is one where you can walk in either direction for at least 1km and even up to 5km and stretch your legs. 9 Likes 1 Share |

Politics / Re: Lagos To Begin Lekki Airport In 2024 by COMPAQ(m): 3:31pm On Jan 02 |
muykem: 4 functional airports for what? Even London has only two key airports - Heathrow and Gatwick, though Heathrow has 4 terminals. Heathrow processes circa 75mln passengers per year. MMIA does about 7mln!! We just need to optimize departures and arrival times better at MMIA. If the old terminal is brought back to life, MMIA T1 and T2 is okay for Lagos. Even the one in Lekki isn't really needed in my view. Governments just like to do big projects so they can steal money. How many Nigerians really have N2mln to travel. A lot of the travel in the past 12 months has been one way travel for those japaing. https://www.statista.com/statistics/226451/passenger-traffic-at-london-heathrow-airport/ 2 Likes 1 Share |

Crime / Re: Video Of Police Rescue Operation Of Kidnapped Victims In Kogi State On 30th Dec. by COMPAQ(m): 10:11am On Jan 01 |
Yestogood: I agree. The Level of professionalism of the officers in the video is poor. If were Tinubu I'd send 1000 of Nigeria's best to USA to be trained as special forces for one year. When they come back, they will be divided into groups of 20 or 50. That will be 50 or 20 units. Each unit will be sent to Hotspot such as southern Kaduna, Plateau state, Ondo axis and middle belt to stop herders incursion on farms etc. All units will be monitored by a central command center. The command center will know where all units re are with sattelite technology. All units will be backed up with armed drones that will be in the air round the clock. Extra units will be on 24hrs call at NAF bases, ready to be transported by chopper if necessary. Each units will have 2 sharp shooter rifle handlers, that can make a kill from 1km away. Each member of the unit will have communications built into the head gear so they can communicate quietly over fairly large distances, while ll being in contact with the command center. Each unit will have the capability of stying in the bush for 2 weeks. If necessary, they will be resupplied with helicopter drops of bullets, MRE foods, water and treatment kits for local water sources etc. Each member of the unit will also have night vision goggles on their head unit so they can move ND conduct operations at night. Each unit will have those trained in tracking and a medical person to provide stabilization of serious injuries prior to evacuation. As C in C, my steer would be that in event of any abduction of villages, schools etc like 4 of these units should immediately be dropped in the bush in the direction of escape ND comb for the kidnappers. This is where the tracker comes in useful. The instruction will be to pursue ND recover. Constantly stay on the abductors trail. All of this will be monitored with sattelite technology from the control room, who if they spot what looks like the abductors moving through the bush will redirect the units on the ground. If the abductors are seen ahead by the units, this is where the snipers come in handy. You can safely take them out one by one from a Distance. When the folks know that they will lwys be pursued and chances of dieing are like 90%, they will reconsider. It's becuse currently chances of dieing are like 10%, that's why more and more people go into it.

Travel / Re: 11 Reasons Why You Should Not Japa From Nigeria by COMPAQ(m): 1:00pm On Dec 25, 2023 |
IfnobeGod20: On points 10 and 11, it's relative to your income. If you earn.poor income in Nigeria, which unfortunately most do, then this won't make sense. But if you are one of the lucky few who works in oil industry, banking at Mgr and above, in the big 4 audit firms etc then this is relatable. If you earn N1mln a month net, you'll likely have more disposable income and saving than someone who earns $4k net. I have lived in US and Nigeria and cost of food is cheaper in Nigeria. In US, asides junk and processed microwaveable ready food, proper food is not really cheap. 1 Like |

Academia is not the same as regular job in a bank where you only work for one bank and cannot work for another. Doctors also operate a similar system as Professors.
