Hope you still remember Dangote has said many times his products will be sold at international market price (that is, same price like the imported one). He will not sell it at government subsidized price.

Dangote will set up a marketing company that will receive payments in US$ or ask petroleum marketers to buy in Naira at black market rate plus hefty premium to cover the cost of buying crude oil in US$.

Private companies are not charity organizations.

seunmsg:
To God be the glory. Hopefully, refined petroleum products from the refinery will ht the market by first week of January. This will give a very big boost to the economy and the foreign exchange crisis. Big shame on those haters of Nigeria who have been praying for the for the refinery not to work.

You are calling him "black monkey" For marrying a plumb white lady for citizenship.
What will call Regina Daniel and Toke Makinwa and all those crowd of young slay queens who marry or even sleep with men old enough to be their grandfathers?

Please suggest a name for them.

Jennyclay:
Another broke Nigerian monkey at it again

Black men especially Nigerian men have no shame!

Biko I can’t laugh

APC did worse to Dr Goodluck Jonathan in 2015. They spread the fake news that he never obtained PhD from University of Port Harcourt. If it was ok then, why is it wrong now?

APC introduced this brand of toxic politics, they should endure it.

Addme:
Unfortunately some people are still hell bent on whatever they hold on to.
And to say these are educated people. I was listening to Demola Olanrewaju of PDP on Nigerian Info not long ago and I can't believe what's coming out of someone of his status.

He was even misinforming the listener that CSU never said Tinubu graduated from their institution.
What politics cannot do to human thinking does not exist.

saphiere:
Statistic shows that 99.999% of rape cases in the world are carried out by men. What does that tells you?

You have moved from cheating to rape and statistics. It's like something is paining you with men.

OK. Let's go to statistics. Can you tell us why, according to DNA statistics, over 60% of children born in marriages are not fathered by husbands? Who impregnated the wives with those babies?👶👶🍼

saphiere:
Stories of men sleeping with their house helps and even impregnating them is not new to us.
Why do men indulge in such act?
If you must cheat as you men do saying it's men's nature to cheat. If you must cheat why should it be the househelp?

please I need answers

Precisely for the same reason married women and madams enjoy sleeping with their smelly gate men and drivers. Let's not even go to the area of toy boys.

Buhari is the most lazy, clueless and useless head of state to have occupied Aso Rock. A coup is executed in his ancestral land that he planned to retire to. Yet he hasn't got the balls to go and mediate

Buhari has zero diplomatic skills apart from nepotism and coded corruption skills.

Tinubu should have sent Buhari on this mission. Afterall he is from Maradi in Niger.

For goodness sake this is a funeral thread. You should have some respect for the dead and the family of this man. Take your dirty tribal politics to your dungeon. Go and create your own tribal hate thread to spread your gospel of hatred.

In all likelihood this chap is not from SE. He is posting this to stoke hatred and resentment to SE people.

VinnyBaba:
Saint Obi
Ernest Obi
Mikel Obi
Mitchell Obi
HE PETER OBI.😊🙂

All the Obi's are Great Achievers!👍

Unlike the Kazeems, Muslius, Taofeek, Etc of Nigeria
that MAJOR in consuming 10 wraps of Amala and Ewedu daily.

Very ugly. Looks like old model land rover or FJ cruiser

And what's on offer? I didn't read anything being offered in that report

CodeTemplar:
Their efforts can't boost govt revenue in any way. They better take what's on offer.

I really don't get your point. Are you saying this girl's marriage is not valid because no relative travelled to Nigeria to attend the wedding ceremony? Even if they connected via Zoom of social media live feed?

Besides, I find your sweeping assertions in the bolded very preposterous. I lived in continental Europe as well for many years in a country next door to Denmark, and I can say those sweeping conclusions are not true.

When you say "everyone comes ", are you referring to all family members and all friends? If so, do you have hard statistical records to prove this?

This sounds more like motor park or beer parlour assertion.

MrBrownJay1:
NOBODY in Norway gets married and there is nobody from their family attending... not even a friend. although today, young people in Norway/Scandinavia dont believe in marriage any longer, when they do decide to get hitched, everyone comes along

i should know about the above, as i used to live a total of 7yrs in Norway and Denmark
also, yes many now come to Africa to find young fit men to marry (Gambia was their preferred country in the past but now west Africa and Kenya is taking over)

Candidlady:
Men were created vile all they need is just that lil trigger

Really 😯

Does that include your father, brothers, and other male relatives? 🤨 🤔

Why the sad face?

Seems you are not happy that the man was exonerated.

Candidlady:

You fail to realize that cultures are different. Even if the wedding took place in the girl's hometown, max maybe parents or 1 or 2 friends might attend.

It's not like in 9ja that family will sow Aso ebi and hire 10 ten danfo buses to bring everyone from village to come and chop jollof rice, and pack extra in polythene bags to take back home.

You have switched from wedding attendance to sexual. Is your blood not hot enough?🔥
Why is it none of them has contacted you to come and service them? Better go and marry. Stop dragging other people's marriage.

MrBrownJay1:
coming from Norway (one of the country with the highest salaries in the world), of course i would .... but most importantly, A) i certainly wouldnt let her go there by herself, with nobody whatsoever to accompany her and B) that is "suppose to be" her once in a lifetime special moment, as her friend, i would want to be there with her.

we all know exactly whats going on.... them mamas used to go to Gambia in the past, i guess Nigeria is taking over for foreign sugarmamas coming to poor countries in Africa looking for young fit blood to service them for a few yrs (in exchange for japa papers)

Plenty long talk which will end in no action as usual. NASENI EVC is calling on them to come and establish Lithium and EV plants. Not the operating word is "calling".

Bloody lazy Nigerian government officials👿
Is that the way other countries do it? You want massive mining, processing and manufacturing projects set up in Nigeria, you are busy "calling". Dey play. Keep calling you hear?

The hard work of taking steps to clean up the suffocating multiple taxation system, carrying out updated geological surveys, checking the festering corruption in cadastral licencing in ministry of mines, putting in place investor friendly regulations governing minerals processing and beneficiation, chasing away the illegal mining and stealing of minerals backed by powerful Nigerians, etc has to be done by Fed Government ,NASENI, Ministry of Mines, etc, before any serious investor will come into the country

Your clearly missed the point of my original post, which is that these prominent Delta sons do not invest in their State, and do not use their commanding heights in banking, industry, media, etc to attract businesses and investments to Delta State. Though, the state has been very unfortunate to have a string of some of the worst civilian governors in Nigeria, from Ibru, Ibori, Uduaghan, to Okowa. Ibori was a bit better.

My post had nothing to do with Deltans having opportunity to work in their organizations. Afterall, Tony Elumelu and Jim Ovia have tried to ensure CEOs of their banks are Deltans. But we are talking of either establishing businesses back home the way Nnewi and Abriba rich men do and also using their influence to pull investments into Delta State.

I know for a fact that Ibru family brewery which was called Superbru built 33 brewery in their hometown Agbara-Otor. Though now moribund. I pass through Agbara-Otor to Ughelli so I do see the dilapidated factory.

You could have said what you said in paragraph 1, without the insult in paragraph 2 and reference to age. Another typical African disease which equates age and position with knowledge.

Thank you for the age compliment (or insult), but I'm not under 30.

ChidiKalu:
The Ibru Organization still employs thousands of people. A few deltans who worked with the Ibru Organization in the 60s/70s subsequently branched out and became billionaires in their own right (eg. Chief Nuel Ojei), others became millionaires. Olorogun lifted atleast two generations of deltans (especially the Urhobos) out of poverty into the middle class strata.

I think you are very ignorant on this topic, and I am guessing you are under 30 — so I wouldn't expect you to know much about the Ibru Dynasty, although under-30 folks who are good students of history would know a thing or two about Olorogun. Sit down and pick up a book!!

Because African women are too money conscious and too materialistic (iPhone, Brazilian hair, Hermes handbag, Balenciaga top, etc). They are now losing out to white women, even if they are older. They don't stress men.

But you fine sha ooooo 😘

orohbiro:
Our men are no longer considering us again

Will you pay $2000 return ticket for each family member from Norway to Nigeria? You think it's like boarding N200 bus from Gbongan to Ede?


These days family members abroad connect to events like this via Facebook or Instagram live.

MrBrownJay1:
you know a marriage is fishy, when not a single member of the bride's family/friends are at the wedding.

Very gripping adventure. I applaud your resilience.

Just 1 question. Do you buy the soya beans to export or for local processing?

Can you also source cashew nut?

maureensylvia:
A lot of experiences I'll share on this thread
I'll start with this one

Please read and digest with maturity

One fateful Saturday morning during the month of November, as early as 5:30am, I was dressed up to go to the village market to source and buy soyabeans for my client

it's a 3 hour journey, I supposed to be in the market latest 8am to source for the Soyabeans. I selected two of my boys to go with me. it was a smooth ride I must say, past 8am we were already in the market...

Majority of the sellers were not yet in the market, I got a bench and sat down while waiting for them to come. My two boys went to drink Shai at Mai shai stand... Shai is Tea. Mai shai is Tea seller

Past 9am there was no signs of the soyabeans sellers... I put on my "Patience" Jacket 😄

I was already hungry but I didn't want to eat what I saw there. I yawned and yawned no be person tell me to go to the Aboki Mai shai stand to request for a plate of noodles...

My goodness!!! the noodles was tasteless!

I managed to eat only the eggs that was spicy.

Around 10am they started coming. Atlast !! I exclaimed.
But there was a development... the soyabeans I was seeing there was not up to the grade I wanted. soyabeans differs and I wanted the best grade.

After a short while I saw the grade I was looking for but the quantity was so small as I needed a trailer of soyabeans.

I made up my mind to go and come back in the next market day but my boys suggested we go to another market that's more bigger than the one we came to.

After much deliberation, I gave in.

Me: How long will it take us to get there
My boy: In few hours we'll be there
Me: It's alright, let's go.

We left the bush market past 10am boarded a taxi and that's it...
11am we're still on the road!

Me: Haba we never reach🧐
My boy: no ma, we will soon. reach

Me: ok ooo


Few mins later the taxi dropped us, I looked around I was seeing only bushes no market. Hiannn Sule this is not market na.

He told me here ends where motor can go the rest of the journey will be on bike

whaaat!!! I exclaimed

My boy: Don't worry ma we will soon reach

Me: ok ooooo🤔

REUBEN010:
Nice work. I'm also into tomatoes and pepper cultivation.

How do you keep disease and pest from the tomato?

I thought this rainy season is not good for tomatoes.

JohnBullMySon:
Ok let me tell you how this things work in reality. Hardly is there any school in the US is UK that sits to teach these things to young children. There's simply no school that teaches young children sex acts.

It seems you didn't read the story very well. You didn't read about the Sexuality Classes and masturbation assignments?

JohnBullMySon:
These are books that are mostly targeted at late teens but are kept in school libraries where kindergarten may be able to access technically.

You see how you are contradicting yourself?
So the books are indeed targeted at teens, and deliberately placed to enable kindergarten children to have access to them.

Very true 👍

DeLaRue:
Getting 5.0 GPA in any art course over a 4 or 5 year course is extraordinary.

Art subjects are usually easier to study than science subjects.

However, because art subjects are not exact and there are often no single universally accepted answers in written exams, a 5.0 GPA in a pure art course is more difficult to achieve than in most science courses.

senatordave1:
You are funny.i am the one to teach you politics and electoral law not the other way.i am far ahead.what matters most is not his credibility or genuineness or quality of his personality his testimony.his testimony is useless therefore everything is null..
I feel sorry for atiku,if his key and witnesses are fumbling,it is over.apc don't need to enter defence

Oga Far Ahead, just listen to yourself;

"what matters most is not his credibility or genuineness or quality of his personality his testimony.his testimony is useless therefore everything is null.."

Abeg carry your ignorance and confused reasoning and shift far ahead from me.

Today is Friday, I got things to do. Besides, I want peace.

Carry on with your keyboard trolling. But don't mention me again.

We are not talking about the content or quality of his testimony. But rather whether his is a legitimate witness, not one procured or hired by the roadside.

Only accredited party agent at state level can sign result sheets at that level. I hope you learnt something today?

senatordave1:
Oga,his testimony is hearsay and useless

Is it culture and image that Delta people will use to feed their families. How many jobs does image create? Does it pay PAYE tax to Delta State.

Abeg make we rest the matter for Ibru case

How about Tony Elumelu, Jim Ovia and Nduka Obaigbena? Their own contribution is also image lifting, abi?

ChidiKalu:
Just came across this after a few years hahaha. You are asking what the Patriarch of the Ibru dynasty did for delta and Urhobo? Lol

1. First things first, Olorogun literally put the Urhobos on the map and uplifted the tribe's prestige and image locally and internationally (this is a well acknowledged fact). Few distinguished sons of Urhobos like Mukoro Mowoe, David Dafinone, Gamaliel Onosode also helped in uplifting the image of the Urhobos, but none like Olorogun. He supported and promoted Urhobo cultural institutions. He loved and embraced Urhobo culture, baba was even the one that popularized the use of "Olorogun" in place of Chief. He's a cultural icon.

2. The Urhobos benefited greatly from the Ibru organization in the 50s/60s/70s/80s/90s. He employed and empowered so many. He was a known philanthropist and great employer of labor.

3. He sited a few companies in Agbara otor (eg. Superbru). He donated a college to Agbara otor (Ibru college), a medical center (the Ibru center clinic), His brother, Alex Ibru, donated a world class ecumenical center to the Anglican faith in Agbara (Ibru ecumenical center). There's also Ibru university in Agbara otor. These are the ones I can remember for now.

The Ibru family is a dynasty. They contributed greatly to the development of the Urhobos and Nigeria.

And quite frankly, it will be very difficult for the Urhobos (or even delta state) to produce anyone in the mould of Olorogun Michael Ibru. He was a pioneer. A true African patriarch who built a proud dynasty.

RIP Eki Ode of the whole universe!!

Yawn 🥱. Please spare us this 2015 election propaganda. We are are tired of the lies. You speak as if you are his account officer.

He didn't steal, but allowed cronies like AGF, NIMASA DG, Minister for Humanitarian Affairs, Sadiya Farouk to steal billions on his behalf. No single official in his government was prosecuted for anything.

What happened to the billions he couldn't account for as Petroleum Trust Fund (PTF) Chairman under Abacha? Not even a primary healthcare centre or simple classroom block was built.

Refinery builder indeed. If you want to know who was instrumental in building the refineries, it was conceived and built by Obasanjo govt as part of the 3rd National Development Plan, along with NAFCON, Iwopin, Oku Iboku and Jebba paper mills. Prof Tam David West as oil minister under Buhari and IBB ensured they were efficiently run.

Under Buhari/Idiagbon government, we all know the real power was Idiagbon. Buhari was just an indolent figure head the same way he was a mere figurehead during the 8 years of his horrible civilian govt.

Abeg no remind us of many things oooo.

Just set play

FreeStuffsNG:
The indomie generation and those with the upbringing of lies, hate and bigotry do not know him.

They do not know Major General Buhari and
Tunde Idiagbon.

Buhari will rather go hungry than steal. That is his strongest quality right from the 70s when the military was in search of a honest military officer to build our refineries. They knew it has to be Muhammadu Buhari and they made him head the ministry and supervise the building of those refineries. He has no oil bloc or licence or fuel station and collected no kickbacks!

Before he came back to power, he keeps rejecting and refunds any extra payment or gift above what is due to him as a former Head of State and GEJ even admitted it about him.

After 8 years in office, he bought no private jet, no private university, no presidential library on a hill and no mansion. Till date, he has just two houses; one in KD and this one he inherited. Very simple humble transparent lifestyle and fiercely patriotic Nigerian to the core.

jesus247alive:
That is not his house. He will soon move to his original place, that is camouflage. Posterity will judge them.... we are all watching

Gbam. You understand the game plan. Buhari remains the quintessential deceiver. He can never change.

KingAzubuike:
Buhari is not really loved hut he's one of those politicians wey no too chop money like that. Even from his military era. He lives a very average lifestyle.

He didn't chop directly. He simply used proxies to siphon while pretending to be Mr Clean.

How did his son Yusuf afford to buy two superbikes costing as much as $300,000 , and gave one to his friend so they can race in the streets of Abuja?

How come he couldn't account for the billions he frittered away as Chairman of PTF during Abacha's regime. No single project anyone can point to anywhere in the country.

How could his wife afford the luxury of living permanently in Dubai and throwing lavish parties in Turkey and Dubai? Abi the family was exporting cattle, which is the only business Buhari understands?

Dey play oOooo. You hear

They killed phantom 55 ISWAP commanders in Borno. But the ISWAP commanders murdering villagers and carrying out ethnic cleansing in Benue and Plateau states are untouchable.

Continue to dey play.

We done hear. Did you see any dead body? Relax bro. It's welcome to office propaganda.

What has the president's tribe got to do with it anyway? Must we inject tribe into everything?

SultanOfAbia:
Tinubu will seriously deal with these bandits.
It's no longer business as usual during Buhari regime..

Trust a Yoruba man to handle insecurity
Tinubu will show bandits SHEGE!!!

God bless Asiwaju

2mch:
Buhari is no longer there to take it easy on them. I advise them to leave that bush and go back to their various villages because the scam and party is over. Otherwise they will soon be sending SOS messages from their various bushes.

Relax . Nobody was killed. It's all part of the welcome propaganda by current Service Chiefs so they can be retained

muykem:
The man also witnessed for PDP in 2019. I perceived that he is a professional witnesses. Only God knows how much he charge per witness.

He was PDP party agent at State level in 2019 and 2023 elections. That is why his is called as a key witness. They don't call random people as witnesses in court proceedings.

Also, only party agents can sign result sheets.

I hope you are properly educated now.
