If you like,don't believe this news
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has laid the foundation for our economic growth
The first is the streamlining of our taxes
With this,investors have a clear indication of taxes to be paid instead of multiple taxes which was obtainable before
The second is the reparations of their investment
The truth is,the world is right now in a very tricky position with what Donald Trump is doing in America
Foreign investors are seeking stability and the president is giving this with his strong leadership
Why are you forcing people to believe what is not ? 😁😁.

Stuffs like this don’t work by faith.

These things don’t hide. If they are true, you would see the impact without folks like you coming here to blow vuvuzela on some phantom achievements.

Unemployment
Underemployment - You have a degree but work as security guard or Uber driver.
High Taxes Depleting your Income
You pay rent.
Road Tax
Car Insurance
Water rate
Monthly hire purchase payment for your car.
Electricity rate
Heating and Gas rate
Child care fees if you are working and have kids. Nothing like ''housegirl'' there.
Council tax
Income tax
TV licence
Phone rate
By month end you're broke.

Otilo.

Only a matter of time before they tax you for the air you breathe.

Of what use is ''good road'' and ''good educational system'' when your life is crap?

There are good roads in Nigeria too. Leave your village and move to Abuja or Uyo or Enugu. Fine roads everywhere and highly secured.

What is ''sub-standard'' about the health care and educational systems? These are the same systems that have produced world class individuals in all spheres, from doctors to engineers and scientists all over the world.

A strong Iroko tree does not grow from weak roots.

Everything African is always ''sub-standard'' in your 'oyinbo' worshipping heads.

One thing you guys need to understand is that the so-called “saner climes” come with a great cost to the people there.

They pay through their noses for it.

Nigerians are not prepared to see great chunks of their income eaten up by taxes and fees, even if you promise them Dubai environment.

We prefer for things to be a bit lax if it means we get to keep more of our money in our pockets to do things we want, like building a mansion in the village, or doing Owambe, or big weddings, or to start a business.

That’s our way. We are never going to be like London and America and all these places where people are forced to limit themselves.
Agbado master… na lie lie full Una mouth.

So everybody must live in Abuja and Enugu to enjoy the basic necessities of life.

You don't know the meaning of failure. Do you know what it took him to clear the mess created by Emefeli? Do you know what it took them to control inflation in an economy that suffered double bullets of currency devaluation and subsidy removal? Do you know the energy and guts that is required to battle currency arbitragers and rent seekers to a standstill? Do you know what it took to control the high exchange rate volatility that we went through? Praise people when they have done well so that they will do more.
How are they controlling inflation?

YOU DEPENDED ON LIFELINE AND YOU WERE DYING RAPIDLY.



TODAY,YOUR WORKERS ARE RECEIVING #85,000,#75,000,#70,000.
GOVS ARE RECEIVING TRIPLED ALLOCATIONS, THEY ARE PAYING THEIR DEBTS,SOME UP TO 90%.THEY ARE EXECUTING PROJECTS RIGHT,LEFT AND CENTRE.
FG JUST PAID OFF ALL IMF DEBTS,PAID OFF $7 BILLION FX BACKLOG ETC.

There is time in life for everything. Even gestation has its period. If after 9 months there is no delivery, people get worried. If a child is born earlier than 8 months, it calls for concern as well. At 2, a child is supposed to have crawled and then walked. At 24, one should have graduated from college or learned a trade skill. There is also a retirement age. We may pretend but life has its cycle: Silver, golden age, you name it. Can we redefine life because we want it to selfishly fit into our loser lifestyles? Of course! Your life, your prerogative.

If you are 40 and single, there is no more vivid way to define a COLOSSAL failure. You are a loser! The person's conscience tells him/her. No pretense necessary. Must everyone get married? No! But those who don't or can't shouldn't try to convince others that it is normal. Isn't that what trans is all about? Forcing others to believe that alternative lifestyle is normal.

Go and marry!!!

Others won't read this Ur write up o.

When reality sets on them at old age, they will know. As long as you are close to God. There is always a blessing attached to marriage. Trust me, except you don't believe in God.

I got married at the age of 32 in one room apartment. After a year, we moved to a Room and parlour and now 9 years down the line, we have our own building of two bedroom flat. With three kids now.

Sometimes, I imagined if I didn't marry then, I would have been kind of irresponsible. Cos I am very handsome and girls were all over me. And I don't know how to say no to them. Maybe by now, I for don get Aids or born children out of wedlock.
This your “there is always a blessing attached to marriage “has landed many people in trouble.

Na only you Dey close to God abi?

That It went that way for you has nothing to do with you being closer to God or not.

There are people much more closer to God than you are and it didn’t favour them.

There are also people that don’t know God and are having it better than you are.

How about doing yours and leaving others to do theirs?

Lol, according to Maslow's original law of hierarchy of needs, there are five sets of basic needs: physiological, safety, love, esteem and self-actualization. These needs are related to each other in a hierarchy of prepotency (or strength) beginning with the physiological needs that are the most prepotent of all.


Marriage is part of man's needs, the need becomes more pressing when a man attains financial stability.



So op, people telling you to go and marry are not doing any bad.


I wonder how a man would derive complete fulfillment at 40yrs, financially buoyant and no family of his own; no wife or kids. It's going to be a very sad, boring, disorganized and messy life undecided
Where did Maslow state that marriage is part of mans need? ITK.

The earlier people like you learn that everyone is different, the better for you.

I agree.

After criticizing, offer solutions.

Many of those who enjoy criticizing lack the brainpower to offer solutions.



Cardinal should propose solutions.

We had thought that the problem was fuel subsidy, dollar dual exchange rate, and lack of refineries.

The biggest problem with Nigeria is lack of ideas and synergy for national development.

There is a gang angling for power in 2027. They have no clue how to solve any problem. They can't even organize their opposition properly. They just want power. Some would argue that it is the system of government. We have practiced parliamentary system, military system and presidential system. We are also practicing theocratic system due to the influence of religious leaders.

Our problem is us. We only think of ourselves and our visibility.

Let's propose some solutions.

1. Mass transit is the first issue to be addressed. Let all states purchase mass transit buses for interstate transportation, and subsidize it. When people are able to move from one place to another at affordable rates, the pressure on their earnings would reduce.

2. Let each regional government pool resources and create a new regional grid and power generation. We have sola rup north, hydro in the middle belt, offshore wind and gas in the south, geothermal in the southwest, and so on. Harnessing resources will not only create employment but solve long-term problems. With electricity, industries would thrive.

3. Let each state address insecurity. Set up a reward system for those behind insecurity to be exposed by the locals. By the time you punish 60 people, insecurity would end. Also, vet every human being that enters your community. Use the locals to solve the problem. Employ them as local guards, train them and pay them. How come we have not heard about insecurity in Jigawa, Kebbi, Gombe, Nasarawa, what exactly are they doing differently?

4. Invest in agriculture. Invite international farmers and allow them to till your land and set up agro-processing zones. You'd create employment and feed your people.

5. Gather stakeholders and discuss with them to share ideas on development. Agree on a strategy and follow it. Once it is time for politics, play it. It is quite shameful that everyone is talking about 2027 as if the citizens don't matter.

6. Work, not because you want re-election as a reward, but because you want a better life for your people. Treat your citizens as members of your own family. No parent wants his children to suffer.
Offer which solutions? What’s the old cargo and his numerous advisers paid to do?

You no well o.
