The road to hell as described in the Bible is very broad and and easy when compared with the road leading to life which is cramped.

Nigeria defies this statement as Nigerians have been on that uneasy road which should lead to life, yet straight to hell.

What have Nigerians not suffered? Is it one form of strike or another in every administration? Is it fuel scarcity, subsidy removal and other harsh terms associated with crude oil? No single policy of crude makes Nigerians smile for once in their short lifetime

When crude oil prices went to zero in the international market, Nigerians faced increase in fuel price. They said Nigeria wasn't making money from crude that's why Nigerians will pay more.

Those that agreed with this theory, tell me what's happening during Russia and Ukraine war? what made fuel prices soar up? instead of a reduction in price, we have another increase and even scarcity. My opinion is that more increase and scarcity will come after the elections.

To make money, difficult. To spend money, difficult. To withdraw your own money, difficult.You even buy your own money you saved before buying goods with the money.(double buying) which leads to massive levels of poverty in the long run.

It's like some people are not satisfied that over 80% of the populace are poor. They want the country to have a score of 99%

You complain about the recent Naira redesign policy, some people will fight you and tell you to use alternative means because they can but have you thought about absurd illiteracy levels? Many rural areas don't have ATMS and many Nigerians don't even know how to operate a phone. Our grandmothers or grandfathers in the village can all of them download bank apps? How much more operate them?

I expected trainings before implementation if you want to go completely cashless but NO! Not in Nigeria!

They said the border closure will make price of rice increase at first then later it will drop. I'm still waiting for that drop.

Same people are saying Naira redesign will bring hardship at first but after election, everything will be normal. SMH

I don't believe we are in a country. This looks like a cage - a poultry cage where birds are kept because a sane mind can hear the noises of Nigerians at every corner of the cage.

The moment they see that Nigerians are enjoying little comfort, some people somewhere who are comfortable, shake the cage hereby bringing discomfort and the birds go haywire as usual.

Maybe we all should take a walk through the cemetery to remind us that life is short. The few years we have alive why do we use it to frustrate others? Why can't we make people happy for once ?

Many ran away from Nigeria last year. Instead of the Government to look for ways to ease sufferings of Nigerians so we retain our best talents, they are frustrating the ones left behind.

If i am God, I will remove every citizen of Nigeria from the country so the leaders can wake up and see only themselves enjoying all the resources as this is only what can make them happy.
I am not insulting anyone. Just an observation from a concerned Nigerian

TheNiceGuy:
That girl is depressed. She's going through a lot

Hmm. I understand. I wish her well

I am happy i am from Edo. We have always supplied Nigeria good entertainers and sport stars.

Entertainers are Dj Neptune, Rema, Jonny Drill, Adesua, Charles Inojie, mc Edo pikin, Nancy Isime e.t.c

We have always supplied Nigeria good strikers. E.g Osaze Odemwingie, Odion Ighalo and now Victor Osimen, e.t.c

Don't want to talk of politics.

We also have a rich ancestry. Till today Museums around the world are returning our artworks.
The lesson is, be proud of your roots no matter where you come from cos despite our challenges, Nigeria is blessed.
Even Bethlehem Ephrathah that was the least clan, produced Jesus

vickydevoka:
That’s why they are women. For my eye ls alhaji offered three gals 50k to suck their breast . Na so two go one no gree . Those two ladies breast started developing sores and became very big . They all died. This one no be 9ja film o. Na reality. Nothing comes easy. Most ladies have been used that’s the fact

😲 Wow.

temiyato:
5million too much bro, 500k is even too much self

Hmmm. I understand you sir

BlackMan6969:
some women sef. Person offer you 5m for one night, fear no catch you. Men who make legit money, don't spend that recklesly

That's the point. Many of them don't reason
Once they hear 5million their brain stop working

Wordsfrombimpe:
Every young woman out there should learn from Halima Abubakar

Avoid sleeping around anyhow with men

Some men are very dangerous is not even about pastors be careful with man especially when you dont know much history with them.

She slept with a man for # a 2.5million and look at her today

I hope our women will learn to be satisfied with what they have

Copyright ©️ Digital Bimpe

When you tell them b4 they start their sleeping around, they will insult the hell out of you and tell you to mind your business that's why I don't pity them when they come with their sad stories cos i know in most cases, it doesn't end well.

More than half the women in Nigeria both married and unmarried will still open legs for any man who will give them 5m for a night.

Kelechi009:
Which stupid character are you talking about

They were in a relationship for 5 WHOLE years. Do you even know what 5 years mean

Lol. Character is stupid to you. If people value character, one year is enough to reveal red flags how much more spending 5 yrs.
Looking at only Money, fame and beauty will make many overlook red flags until it backfires.

vokon2555:
How do u call off an engagement b4 the due date and claim u were ever under his control? � Clueless u are. I don't think u even listen to anybody. Now u are trying to recover from ur public display of stupidity. If u truly love him & he doesn't accept u again, u shld av stayed true to ur confession & see what time brings. Instead u were aiming for an instant positive reply. Just see how u are changing like chameleon in few hours & trying to play the victim. Even future husband, u don chase am away. This social media u love to use without thinking will kill & bury ur future. Olodo.

Lol. U see when women only care about money, fame and good looks in a man, without looking for other good character, they end up getting burnt. I don't pity them when it happens.
If u find out , you may be surprised she has snubbed many good guys in the past cos she feels they are not of d same class. Now see her. I pray she finds peace but i don't pity them cos dis girls got no pity when they plan their wicked schemes

When women behave like this, it's either they still love the guy or they didn't see a better option.
Most times, the second reason is more common

When relationship is based only on money things like these are bound to happen.
No good character checks, mind games, pride e.t.c

Omo see traffic.

We will touch 100 pages on this thread today

I think Mbappe is the first player in history to score a hatrick in a world cup final. Correct me if I'm wrong

thebosstrevor1:
You can simply use your atm instead of nagging.

Nobody is stopping you from buying anything using digital platforms and other instruments that supports cashless transactions

I'm not nagging and not talking of myself. Besides how many people have ATMs?

The ATM allows only 20k per day. So what if you buy goods worth over 20k from someone who doesn't have account with a bank or understand cashless transfers?

You will spend more in using other channels like pos and so on for cash withdrawals (spending money to collect your own money).

You don't understand the economic implications of these yet.

Don't worry, let's all watch the film. It's more interesting than i thought

RZArecta:
you will be forced to buy extra cash in the black market as if you're buying dollars forcing the naira to become as useful as Zimbabwean dollars

Lol. That's it. Nigerians are very funny people.

Suunnn:
God help us

Amen

Bebigiby:
You're wrong naira is not CBN's property. It only controls the volume of money (naira) supply by making regulatory policies in the economy in order to ensure monetary and price stability (Ideal mandate).

Don't mind him. You see the kind of population we have? Government have messed up the thinking of many people.

Many people don't even know their right anymore.

Imagine a citizen saying what he earns is government property that Government only allows him to use it. That means Government has the right to take what he earns from him SMH.

We have a looooong way to go in this country

Bebigiby:
The new CBN cashless policy is a clear violation of your right to earn and spend your money. You're right, no one should dictate to you how you should spend your money and the amount to spend since it is your money. But then this is Nigeria were it seem anything goes under Buhari's government. I've read reactions of Nigerians and listened to some government officials applaud the CBN cash withdrawal policy as a good one and I wonder on what premise is it good to violate people's right to access and spend cash?

Many people are saying that this new policy will combat vote buying in the next election and insecurity. I laugh because the last time I checked it is not CBN's job to combat vote buying or insecurity. One will ask what is the job of INEC, EFCC, ICPC, Police and our other security outfits? (The CBN is not INEC neither is it a department of the Nigerian police force)

How can CBN under the leadership of Emefiele implement such an intrusive policy without consulting with Nigerians and without the input of the national assembly?

Nigerians should reject this evil policy and urge the national assembly to reverse it. This policy will only benefit the banks (Charge more transaction fees and implement predatory policies), the ruling party (APC) and Emefiele the CBN governor (It was revealed in 2021 that Emefiele registered as an APC member).

The CBN cashless policy is bad for Nigeria and will hurt the economy. If you want to know more see why CBN Cashless Policy Is Bad For Nigeria here -

You are a right thinking Nigerian. God will be kind to you

FinidiGeorge:
What do you expect in a country led by Cattle rearers..... You have said it all ; in fact, I know many educated retired and nearing retired civil officers and government workers that can't operate their bank application successfully, they always need the help of a youth.

Since the southerners have been docile and allowed religion to turn them to mumu, how will they fight the violent cattle rearers back who came into leadership by violence? I'd be disappointed if this policy is successfully enforced at this time without an uproar.

Hmmm. I don't think there will be any uproar and i won't be surprised. Some are in support already.

You see, this is the reason the country is like this. When these policies are dished out, some will support because they aren't affected but when it affects them, they complain.

Selfishness and greed is the problem of Africa. No consideration for the Unbanked and illiterate populace

Validated:
Oga, stop complaining, you all want a better country but do not accept what makes for better society. Naira is not your property, it is CBN property which they allowed you to hold. If you like, you can make your money in cedis or rupees, that is your business. However, you must abide by CBN rule if you must use Naira.

I'm not Oga and I'm not complaining. I'm Just airing my opinion.
You think withdrawal limit will make a better society not quality of education right?

By the way, Naira is partly CBN's property and my property too. If the money you worked for is not also your property, after earning your money in Naira, you can as well dash it out to CBN or tell them to spend it for you since it's not yours.

Ernchibyke:
People will adjust over time.

No wonder they keep churning out these policies cos they know people will adjust inside the cage

How can i make money and you tell me how to withdraw my money and also tell me how much to withdraw? Is there a limit to what i can save?

If no then why tell me i can't access all my hard earned cash? If i should bring a document fine but don't tell me how much cash i can take out. What if the tech fails and i need urgent cash for an urgent medical need or item? This is financial slavery!!!

we are told we will soon be allowed to make withdrawals of only 20,000 NGN per day in a country where the illiteracy level of most traders are high

Take an example of shopping for household items worth over NGN 20,000 from a market like Isale Eko where many aged women don't have account nor understand transfer and want their money in cash? or paying some landlords who don't have an account number and prefer their money in cash?

Whether we like it or not, the Unbanked population in Nigeria is huge.

Education system is almost dead and you want the populace to embrace technology?

It's like putting someone under the hot sun and expect him not to sweat.

The things i see in Nigeria, I haven't seen before and we have brilliant minds. Does too much study affect our thinking?

Kenneth10110:
When Rashford, Saka and Sancho missed penalties they called them 'monkeys' now let's see what they'll call Harry Kane

They should call him a donkey

Tareq1105:
80% of the team are from the local league. Hope Nigeria will learn from this.

Those who head our sports won't learn anything from this.

We live in a Garbage in garbage out system

The sports that thrives in this kind of system are individual sports ( From those who trained themselves without any support)not collective sports.

Bekermann:
Brilliant... Absolutely brilliant

Thanks brother

prophetfire:
According to the Bible, it's only virgins that bride price should be paid on. Any girl that have lost her virginity can only be taken as a concubine and not a full-fledged wife.
They're scamming men who pay bride price on non-virgins.

Absolute scam my brother. I feel for decent Men who end up with hoes

fastseo:

Morocco really did well.
NFA and super Eagle una they see football?
NFA should do the needful and go for grassroot player scattered all over Nigeria who are ready to play for the pride being Nigeria.

Greed will never allow our football thrive. We need iron hand in our sports. Maybe DSS should step in i don't know

Chenult:
Able Redpillers kindly do justice to this thread pls.

https://www.nairaland.com/7415594/why-women-get-enraged-whenever#118099426

This reason is why women think they are smarter than men. Ladies even in my workplace will say they can't marry a poor man but if a guy says he can't marry a non-virgin they get angry.

Some even ask if the guy is a virgin too. If it is a virgin girl that asks this question, I won't be angry but i have observed that it is non virgins that asks this questions the most.

If you ask these same girls if they are rich too before asking for a rich man, their face will change again.

So I wonder, Wealth and virginity which is easier to have?

All girls inherit Virginity from birth but not all boys inherit wealth from birth. So it's easier to have virginity but do most girls keep it? Nooooo.

Many women don't care to keep what they came with for their husbands which is (virginity) but they expect men to keep what they did not come with? Which is (riches).

Men should set the standards but sadly today,it is women that sets their partial standards. Partial because most of them can't keep it.

Any girl that wants value must bring value. Like what a guy said in another thread, you cannot withdraw without deposit.

Any girl who asks for rich guys b4 marriage when she has thrown away what she already has, is like someone who did not save any money but visits different ATMS looking for free money. Such person is a robber and sadly some guys just like a strange ATM will give out cash even when the account balance of the withdrawer is zero

Mfetenang:
Just reading these comments I realised how illiterate some people are.
For your information, the CBN is an independent organisation and has no association with the Nigerian government.
IPOB fools,when your parents asked you to go to school you decided to sell spare parts instead. Now you don't know the difference between CBN and government. Illiteracy is a big problem in this country.

That is what we were taught in school that CB of any country should be independent but with what I'm seeing, our's is not.

ruggedtimi:
south africa, morocco, egypt they are all better than countries like albania and moldova....but it still doesnt change a thing, africa is f*cking backward [/[quote author=Daniel7543 post=117881974]You people will just be saying what you don't know. If you claim these African countries are blessed with good leaders so why are they still unemployment and dirty roads in those countries you listed.

Rwanda is only good at quality education, the government create a good learning environment for them. Every student (from primary school - university level) has free laptops and free internet wifi to browse and research that's all. While everything about Rwanda is absolutely nothing to write about.

I have been to South Africa and I will tell you there's no difference between Nigeria and South Africa. When you mention Ghana I was just laughing.. Ghana is not even near civilization not to talk of producing good leaders.

The only African country that is near to standard and I can advice people to visit is "Mauritius". Majority of the system is working well. Good roads, there's always light, good leaders, good education, good health care service, good employment and working hours. There are also white people living there comfortably.

I had always wanted to create a thread like this.
Maybe i will create a series on it when i have the time. You see Africa especially Nigeria, we can't get is right due to many factors. One of them is what i call first class wickedness and selfishness.
The average Nigerian has selfishness and wickedness in their DNA. If he notices that his neighbour has a means of comfort, he automatically hates the person in his heart. It happens in all spheres of existence in Nigeria.

Most bosses do not want their staffs to be comfortable in life but they want their own children to be successful.(selfishness)

Ask most bosses if they will love their children to be treated the way they treat their staffs and many won't utter a word. Yet, they pay peanut salaries and make late payments even though the company makes massive profit.

Check out how people in Nigeria treat their domestic workers. Anyone that buys nice clothes for her children and buys rags for the househelp or pays the house help what she knows won't be enough for her children for the month, when she has the means, is part of the reasons Nigeria is damaged.

Politicians won't fix electricity or good roads or elevate people's standard of living in Nigeria but will keep the funds for their unborn generation so that the populace will continue to worship their children and praise their family.

The list is on. Check where government officials live. They care sooo much about themselves and their children. If you like live in gutters without good health care, they are happy because they love seeing many people under them. (False god mentality)

I have always said that blacks didn't fight for independence. They only fought to take control from the whites and continued where the whites stopped. The brain of the Blackman is indeed damaged 100%

Homelessness and poverty is far worse than statelessness. Many empty apartments in the cities yet people sleep under bridges.

Also, many youths are idle. Instead of reducing poverty or idleness, they are talking of statelessness.

If nobody is stateless, will it improve the lives of people? We need good policies not policies that doesn't improve people

David in the Bible did same thing but look at what God said to him- New International Version
2nd Samuel 12 vs 11
“This is what the LORD says: ‘Out of your own household I am going to bring calamity on you. Before your very eyes I will take your wives and give them to one who is close to you, and he will sleep with your wives in broad daylight.

The punishment might be different but anyone that does such will face calamity and the cycle will continue
