lol,i just feel ashamed whenever the topic arises

It's not a big deal. Don't feel ashamed at all. Life happens at different times. When you need to, you will. And become tired of it. It's nothing.

If you think beer is bitter you must be about eleven years old.

Come on will you go and return Mummy's phone to her at once and stop browsing with her data.

No room for self indulgence at this critical time.

The race for the moon to me is a distraction and waste of Earth's scares resources which would have been been better deployed in solving the litany of environmental problems on the mother planet.

We have not subdued mother earth in totality yet and here we are racing for the moon to do what exactly?

All these things may come in key for the protection of the Earth in the event of an external cosmic threat.

When is the right time for reforms?
A lot of us are selfish. We have absolutely no plans for those yet unborn. 1st world countries had this in mind many years ago that's why you're all japaing there and there's accomodation for you.

What would be the fate of Nigerians 100 years from now if we don't take stringent measures as soon as possible? The rot is too deep. If we don't start now, then when?

If you sincerely believe that "the rot" in our Augean Stable can be cleansed by one of the most rotten men in the world you must be a joker.

Read this and be enlightened about Tinubus reform

https://www.nairaland.com/8008003/tinubu-builds-country-dreams-nigerians#128586217

The article was trash my dear. Perhaps you are hoodwinked by grammar. I don't have the time to go into detail this morning. But I will just point out a few things.

1. The problem was never subsidy but humongous corruption. In a country where the cost of subsidy jumps from under 300 billion to over 6 trillion in a few years, you should know it's devilish corruption at play.

2. No one removes subsidy 100 percent in one go. That is madness. Only a person trying to destroy his country will do that. It led to a 200 per cent increase in the price of PMS which is the highest price jump in a single day that has ever occurred in the history of PMS in the world BY FAR. Needless to say, the ripple effect crippled the economy.

3. Floating the dollar simultaneously was just madness. The timing was shocking. But beyond the timing, any measure that ensures such alarming devaluation of a national currency is suicidal for any import dependent economy.

4. Thus there are measures that ought to be taken before these huge policies are implemented. Such as ensuring local production of PMS. Such as ramping up exports. The implementation of these polices were disastrous. No one, and I repeat, no one, takes such a huge step only minutes into his administration, in an inauguration speech without consultation.

I’m in Nigeria and not immune from anything. So, I’m already feeling the pains of the reform. The difference is that I understand the current situation is necessary for the economic recovery and sustainability of the country.

The difference is that you are a natural born slave who knows nothing about ECOSOC Rights. Further differences rest in your lack of intelligence, your worship of geriatric and corrupt leaders, your lack of self esteem and self respect and your perception of yourself as born to suffer for the pleasure of a class of rogues and thieves.

You also lack the capacity to rigorously interrogate policies and conduct research into similar situations around the world and in history. Your kind is naturally predisposed to endure hunger and deprivation even unto death, and while doing so, you are the kind of person who will praise his murderers and the murderers of his own children.

seunmsg:
That’s a bold and courageous leader who knows what to do. Correcting the mistakes of the past is not an easy process. The reforms, though painful, is the only sensible option considering our current situation. We must all endure and allow the process to achieve desired outcome.

May the reforms locate you accurately in the same way they locate the generality of Nigerians. Amen.

Wow!
We said the same thing.

You must be a great person in life
Cos,
Great minds think alike 😉

See cruise nah.....

Have you finally retired from calling the destroyers of this country your "darling daddies?"

Validated:
So na this failure and liar them see to send?
For the very fact that Gov. Abiodun is the one announcing this, I am not perturbed because it is is sure that $ will never come down

One thing I have noticed is that in Nigeria, what goes up never comes down.

Biodun556:
May Tinubu succeed

Those bureau de change mallams should be locked up

May anything he succeeds at be applicable to your life.

If he succeeds at bring prosperity to Nigerians, may you prosper.
If he succeeds at bringing hardship, hunger, tears and sorrow to Nigerians, may you experience all these.

Amen.

You mean one is a psychotic sadistic murderous dictator while the other is an aging demented relic of imperialism.

wirinet:
Completely false narrative.
Fuel subsidy did not destroy the economy, corruption did.

Here are the avenues of corruption, each of which is more than fuel subsidy.
1. Crude oil theft. The amount of crude oil theft in the high seas per month is more than fuel subsidy per year.

2. The about of fraud in the fuel subsidy itself is more than the actual amount spent subsidizing the fuel in the first place. The house investigation on the fuel subsidy regime revealed that.

3. The amount stolen in other government ministries and parastatals (apart from NNPC), ie Ministries of humanitarian affairs, Works, Aviation, Transport, power, etc, is more that the money paid for subsidy.

4. The amount stolen by the likes of Elumelu, Ovia, Wigwe, along with their banks through round tripping the naira is more than the amount spent on subsidy.

4. The amount stolen by the CBN governor and his cronies and associates is more than the amount spent on subsidy.

5. Finally, there is the question of if there should be subsidy. Why? Because since the 1980s, we are made aware thar Nigeria entered a crude swap agreement with various refineries overseas, whereby we give them crude and they give us petrol, diesel, kerosene and Aviation fuel, while they keep the remaining products as payment. What happened to the crude swap agreement, was is still operational the last 20 years or it was cancelled?

So the number 1 problem of Nigeria was/is corruption. Kill corruption and everything will start working again.

Beautiful. Thank you. Nothing to add.

You obviously don't know the meaning of crux of the matter.

Shattap.

wirinet:
Trump and his MAGA cult members are confused and suffers cognitive dissonance. Now, if Trump is comparable to Navalny, then Biden should be comparable to Putin? (that's is in their warped minds). So how come Biden is condemned for going after Trump, but Putin is praised or at least tolerated for killing Navalny? Trump and his supporters can never condemn Putin.

They are nothing but illiterate racist red neck blue collar hill billies and twisted deluded evangelists.

forgiveness:
We must go through this once for all. Going back to fuel subsidy and protecting naira is suicide.

No going back.

You too are daft.

GanagiBitrus:
Industrialisation
Agriculture (mechanised)
Local products Patronage

These are areas Govt needs to promote & set up consusive atmosphere for them to thrive.
Removal of Subsidy & floating of Naira is not the crux of the matter.

First line good, Last line daft.

teadrake:
Economic saboteurs are fully ready to sink any policy aimed at curtailing there excesses.

Stop saying this nonsense. Who wakes up in the morning and says how can I sabotage the economy today? You float the naira irresponsibly and make the dollar singularly attractive to all, and when demand surges for it, you say they are economic saboteurs as though you are a first class illiterate who knows nothing about the laws of demand and supply. There is only ONE economic saboteur in Nigeria in the last one year and it is the Federal Government as led by Tinubu.

Calitoscassius:
Those gay men should come here in Miami and see women walking about in see through bras and underwears, some of them sun tan on the beach bare breasted, i love it!

Gbam!

Nothing. This time she was swallowed.
Why the complain then ?

Sorry I was referring to a different type of swallowing.

Firstorderwizard:
Adam was naked until his eyes "opened" and he saw Eve's dangling apples and pink openings.
I agree with you that our forebears lived barely naked comfortably.
But just like Adam, our eyes have "opened".
Any female dressing provocatively is seeking to swallow or be swallowed simple.

What is wrong with swallowing or being swallowed?

Calitoscassius:
The men harrassing her for dressing like that are gay, why would a straight man not want to see a woman's exposed breasts? But they are comfortable with and want to see men walking about with no shirts on. They are all gay.





She has a nice pair of pointed breasts

Thank you!

FourQu:
Because you say no be igbos fine pass

I no know who fine pass oh, but Igbo chics fine wella die oh.

That's why I said it is not even your duty or job to advise her. Advising her could even mean that you are overstepping your boundary.


It doesn't matter if 90% of Nigerians support what the guy did. It is what the law supports that matters. And this is clearly a case of harassment and assault.

Well said.

Olurondo:
Imagine the two idiots who call themselves men harassing the young girl.At their age,Aig has already become the MD of Access Bank. Instead of them to mind their business and focus on how to get themselves out of poverty, they are busy using that energy to harass a young girl.These two bastards should be arrested and prosecuted to the full extent of the law.You are not the girl's father,you don't have any right to tell her how to dress!

Gbam! Thank you!

PoliteActivist:
I am NOT the person who set the parameters. Descartes did in his book. He said he'd doubt anything he could remotely doubt.
Disregarding that the statement is faulty in itself,
Here's the logical sequence of events:
1) There is thinking (this we are fairly sure about)
2) Therefore there must be a thinker (we have no way of knowing this unless we claim we know the true nature of existence, which we don't! Also, the only describable attribute of the thinker is thinking - thinking is the thinker!)
3) That thinker must be "I" (obviously not true)

This is crap, sorry, and not worthy of a response. When you write something worthy you know I will respond.

FourQu:
True true you catch me

But this case we are arguing about qualifies as being 'particular' doesn't it?

How e take particular?

FourQu:
Wrong

I first made a statement, it was left for you to either accept or ignore it BUT immediately you decide to CHALLENGE it then the onus of proof automatically flies from my shoulders and balances squarely on your head

Why didn't you just ignore? why challenge? now you need to bring proof or . . . 🤫

"The Principle of “he who assert must Prove” was coined from the old latin maxim incumbit probatio qui dicit non qui negat which was developed from the old Roman jurisprudence."

https://courtsarena.com/burden-of-proof-in-civil-cases-in-nigeria/

You made a first assertion - the burden of proof is on you.
That burden can only shift under very particular circumstances.
