From the picture, Abacha's rank isn't clear but it appears like an Eagle and a star, which is the rank of a liuetenant colonel. Also, he was not wearing red neck. But Diya was clearly a brig gen, with his red neck very conspicuous. Lastly, in the military, the senior ones are always at the front in any gathering. All these indicate Diya was superior to Abacha.

But how come Abacha became head of state and Diya was his superior agreed to be in Abacha cabinet and taking orders from him?

The obvious combination of eagle and crossed sword equals Major General, for your information.

Besides, even by N/ number, Sani (N/419) is by far senior to Diya (N/671) .

Also, when has a Brigade Commander ever been superior to a General Officer Commanding?

Finally, it is common knowledge Sani never skipped a rank from 2nd Lt to General, so how come Diya was willingly his vice if Sani was ever his junior?

Stop being intentionally mischievous abeg!

Why is he still chairing a private company?
Or any company for that matter?!!!

jaxxy:
untill fuel hits N300 per litre I don't think any significant impact will be felt in the economy at large.

I know Tinubu met fuel at ₦200 and shot it to over 1k.

However, do you also realise that 1k to 860 is almost a 15 (FIFTEEN) percent drop?

And you're saying there is/should be no significant impact on producers?!!

Using GiG as example, if their fuel bill was ₦100million/month, it should be down to about ₦86million/month.

Cost reductions of ₦14million/month or ₦168million annually, for one company on a single line item. Yet "no savings to pass to consumers"!

₦50million of the above annual figure applied to price reductions to be more customer friendly go kee dem?!!

Truly, Nigeria and Nigerians have a numbers problem if it's not clear that we profiteer ourselves to death!!

Yankee101:
Buhari allocated money for same census
What happens to that money?

Budget allocation and budget performance (money released) are two different kettles of fish!

If you allocate 10k of a budgeted 100k income to data, and your income come drop to 89k your budget performance for data no go change?!

Elose11:
Akpabio is lying! Kogi have no airport.

Don't be so quick to debunk..... There is an airstrip inside the cement factory at Obajana!

I have landed there before so no be say dem tell me.

Private jet type and small propeller aircraft can use it

Administration1:
Even if you have cleared a weapon, it still remains the most basic safety rule. If everyone handled a firearm so carefully that the muzzle never pointed at something they didn't intend to shoot, there would be virtually no firearms accidents. It's as simple as that, and it's up to you.

Fair point

Administration1:
As usual with 9ja police, zero muzzle awareness as usual

l

For a weapon that has been in armory after arrest, you can be sure it is empty!

Abi dem no dey pieces the gun to see breech number?

That process automatically ensures a safe weapon.

Melagros:
COMRADES, hope the ex immigration officer will be executed soon? And I want those arms be destroyed publicly

More like, returned to armory.

Those are very expensive Italian assault rifles acquired with our tax money and stored in Immigration armory before the ozuor thief am!

Emir01:
So you picked Naira you used to buy the dollar on the ground? until he loss everything.

My point here is, even if the exchange rate is 1:1, which one between the USD and NGN is more acceptable globally?

If the world war Zelensky is trying so hard to start should set, which of them will be more acceptable as an actual store of value?

Menclothing1:
Selling all my dollars this week bought at 1690 today is 1440 on street lost so bad

Don't be pressured by propagandists into selling your precious hard currency unless you have a need.

USD is a safe house currency regardless of value vs NGN. Can we say so for NGN?

The answer to that question tells you what I'm trying to

creolehunt:
Nigerians are so gullible especially with the paid zombies running amok.

If you people have ever been in government or huge corporation spaces, you'd understand that a massive racketeering has gone on under the table with likely a commision-on-each-transaction deal brokered by the new organization and whoever it is that sponsored them.

The new software was developed by officers of the OAGF, Ministry of Finance and some consultants for the FGN exclusively. It is managed, upgraded and maintained by OAGF.

I know a senior bros that was a key part of the development process before retirement.

Remita is supposed to have been placed into sunset since but entrenched interests no gree.

Kudos to Tinubu for finally pushing it through!!

Omoapena:
he isn't the highest paid and his salary isn't upto 8.5m daily, his salary was just increased to 1.6b annually last year and that's roughly 4.5m daily, currently, the highest paid CEO is the zenith bank CEO, he currently earns 2.1b annually...

some salary earners are billionaires, don't let people fool you that you can't be wealthy by being a salary earner...

And this news started flying about because the latest MTN financial statements show that the 1.6 has been doubled!

Go and check for the statement on NGX website

Trump’s position is that the continued conflict is unsustainable. He talks about the lives that are lost and all the irreparable damages. Trump’s position is that compromise is a necessity.

Zelenskyy wants outright victory. That Putin gets the Gaddafi treatment. And Russia becomes subordinated to Europe, with their weapons and army all disbanded as was done with Germany after WW II. This is the only way Ukraine sovereignty is guaranteed.

Trump don’t see how this is possible without a full blown war in Europe and perhaps, in the world. Trump thinks a better route is diplomacy. Zelenskyy sees Trump as a direct obstacle to this goal.

Zelenskyy’s rhetoric is not dumb. His body language, his positions may be intended at actively driving a wedge between himself and the US.
It is some strategic maneuvering. It’s calculated.

Zelenskyy could sever ties with the US, in the hope that this pushes Europe into assuming greater responsibility for the war effort.

European leaders already signaled they also desire the end of Putin. But rhetorics and actions are different things.

And Zelenskyy might be overplaying his hand in appealing to Europe’s fraught ego.

The EU is an organization that is willing to use Ukraine as a pawn in their effort to increase members commitment and become an actual dominant power. In reframing the US as an unreliable ally, alliances are reshaped that benefits the EU tangibly.

But the EU might be overplaying its hand.

In all, there are pawns, knights, rooks, bishops, kings and queens. As you read, people are dying in the war.

Beautiful analysis of the EU-USA power play they've been using Ukraine and the war to do for the past 3 years!

GOFRONT:
Akpabio never have sexual interest in Ireti and Ireti is a Senator..........Perhaps Ireti is not as sexy as Natasha...........If I were Akpabio, I would go for Ireti cos she is a Milf, a widow as well.

Akpabio should let a married woman be.........Now because of Akpabio's philandering lifestyle, he has succeeded in allowing Natashas husband to ban her from travelling abroad from now henceforth.....

4 years ago, Akpabio was given a resounding slap from Dr Nunueh for touching her inapproprately.........The woman that headed NDDC that year

Brooo... Na you kill Babagana Kingibe? He's very alive and well O, this one you're expressing that his wife is a widow!

Instead of colours, why can't we adopt this Namibian style of sewn-in knee and elbow guards?

Increase troop protection and make the uniform more appealing

rugged7:
Because , at some point in your life, you have to stop copying your colonialists and start being original.

Same reason americans and some african countries have stopped wearing the british lawyers' peruke/wigs.

But can we agree that officers look extra sharp with the Sam Browne belt?

Who are the ones getting the 3k daily feeding allowance.is it those in the battle field or all the military guys including the officers.
If it is been monetize it's better than crediting one thieve to be cooking for them and they end up giving them what is not up to 1500 in real value

Ration Cash Allowance (RCA) is paid, cash, to EVERY combatant of the Nigerian Army, from the freshest Private to the 4 star General.

What I'm not sure of now is if it covers only troops in active theaters or everyone and the frequency of payment.

With that kind of bread mama is definitely seeing all the best eye doctors this Earth can offer!

Racoon:
Ojukwu wants the military hierarchy of command to be ensured and followed but feudal power grabbing lords of those times won't any of that. He stood up to be counted.

And rightly so!

"Jack" was a Lt Colonel at the time, so the feudalists essentially jumped all the Colonels, Brigadiers and Lt Colonels senior to him just to appoint him.

Consider only the implications of retiring so many senior trained men in one swoop for such a simplistic reason, before other implications.

Naija don really suffer for feudalist hands tey tey.

Hailstone:
It’s normal for dead bodies to be put on their original seat especially if the flight is full. An extra room for body storage due to death onboard, is something aircraft engineers need to consider in the future models.

It exists on Singapore Airlines, and even then only on Ultra Long Haul (ULH) aircraft that usually fly 15+ hour missions.

Toyota Camry 2014 V6

Fueling and maintenance wouldn't be an issue

508 or Camry.

With the 508 however expect electric issues within some time as it's not brand new.

We had a fleet of about 12 (brand new) in my workplace and we had to have 4 repaired
for electric issues within the first years of use (under warranty).

Hilux, Coaster and Kia Cerato wey we buy the same period zero issues except servicing and those wey get accident.

You think such ranks are attained based on political sentiments? Have you seen a female lieutenant general in any country before?
