CultureRe: Why Are Arab Princes And Royal Families So Rich? by Deepthoughts: 2:30pm On Jan 14, 2023
EricSmallz:
Hmmm. The country isn't their personal businesses. Crude oil or whatsoever the country has, when sold, the proceeds should go to the government cofers.
If the monies they lavish is suppose to be the common wealth of the people, how come they flaunt their wealth to the whole world? Shouldn't that be considered corruption?
It's like you don't know much about the Islamic emirate system, please try to find out starting with northern Nigeria.

I also wonder why Arab refugees don't go to those rich Dubai, Qatar, Kuwait, Jordan, UAE etc for asylum.

Instead they prefer America and Europe and they prefer dying on cold in the European borders just to gain access to Europe.
The answer is two folds,one the Arabs don't have so much love they only use Islamic religion for manipulations n exploitation,two some of those refugees are sponsored to gain access to the west to aid their jihad from within.

I was watching a video on Facebook about some of the richest Princes in those Arab Contries, Especially the UAE region. I did my little research, I didn't get satisfactory Explanation.
I know even King's all over the World are usually very rich.
It's very simple,in the Arab Islamic emirate system even in northern Nigeria,the emirs owns everything in the emirate in trust for the commoners and they usually help themselves to a large chunk of it without any qualms because the leadership is imbided in religion to manipulate the people without questioning.

RomanceRe: How Do I Convince My Boyfriend To Save In My Bank? by Deepthoughts: 10:10pm On Jan 12, 2023

Mods, take this to the front page. Thank you.

Hi everyone! I have a boyfriend, we've been together for a year. I absolutely love him, he's my whole world! And that's the reason I'm pressuring him to save, if we're going to have a future together. And he's down for it, he makes nothing less than 200k monthly. I'm still a student, searching for a decent job. I can't invest sh** presently but I hope to start soon. Yesterday, I brought it up. I want him to send money monthly to my bank account, no matter how little. I'll save it for him. He's hesitating. He said I should be patient, he'll give me everything I need but he wants more time. I don't want to ruin our relationship but I need his co-operation. I'm scared he might leave me, after I've given him the best years of my life. I subtly threatened him that my family would force me to marry a Nigerian but he made a joke out of it, saying I would never, that I'm his... embarassed

What should I do?

NB: I've never taken a dime from him. He drinks often and I don't want him spending 'our future' on alcohol! I'm way better at saving.

I'm worried if I press the subject, he'll get mad at me.

I also told him I want to leave Nigeria, he thinks it's a good idea and I also told him I can't afford it alone. He said he needs time.

Doesn't he love me? Should I let it go? Or insist we resolve this?
bia bia bia, this your account no be bear bear account ba?

It would have been a wonderful idea if you had suggested he opens an account and start saving but you raised a red flag by suggesting he should be sending money to your own account!,no reasonable man would accept that,I wouldn't either,I doubt much if your intentions are truly genuine,abi you wan trick the Bobo into paying in advance by instalment?

PoliticsRe: Marketers Predict Six-Month Fuel Scarcity, Prices Rise by Deepthoughts: 9:54pm On Jan 12, 2023
otokx:
Did you hear that the new modular refineries are unable to source for crude?
Your statement is a bit confusing,I don't know if you were asking me a question or you were trying to poke fun at me,but in simple and clear terms,what I mean is this,the idea that everyone must buy crude at international rate would not augur well for us considering our weak n unstable currency,so the modular refineries if they are ready to produce, should be sold the crude at an agreed local rate on the proviso that they sell their refined products locally only.
PoliticsRe: Marketers Predict Six-Month Fuel Scarcity, Prices Rise by Deepthoughts: 9:44pm On Jan 12, 2023
But the indidivduals have to sell their refined products at a profit...which is why subsidy can be removed....because under subsidy they would be forced to sell at a loss to help the poor.
Surely they would be making profit because they would be buying crude at an agreed local rate for local consumption only
PoliticsRe: Marketers Predict Six-Month Fuel Scarcity, Prices Rise by Deepthoughts: 7:00am On Jan 12, 2023
Kobonaire234:
There is only one answer and that is the removal of subsidies totally.

Otherwise there is going to be scarcity whoever is in charge because the price controls inherent in subsides will prevent profits being made which would lead to scarcity

The free money from subsidy leads to corruption and stealing.

The mass smuggling of cheap fuel means we lose billions for nothing. Mass smuggling that both big and small people do

And it is obvious that 50 years of subsidy has resulted in the decline of domestic refining capacity.

Remove subsidy. Let the market control the price. Just like we do for other things

But this apc govt wants to keep believing in the false god called cheap fuel. And they sacrifice our economy and future on its altar
Removing subsidy totally may not solve the problem,if subsidy is totally removed with crude oil been sold at international rate n the naira depreciating continuously how on Earth are going to fare better,I think the best solution would be to permit individuals the right to build refineries that would sell their products locally only then sell the crude to them at an agreed local rate.

The simple solution to the fuel crisis is permit individuals to build small refineries that would only sell their products locally then sell crude to them at an agreed affordable n profitable price locally.

SonofLothbrok:
You guys are deceitful. The two major political parties cancelled zoning when clearly it was the turn of the igbos to become president. Then Obi decamped and was suddenly given Labour Party presidential ticket in platter of gold without challenge.

Someone some-where is playing a chess game with the future of igbos and Peter Obi is part of the game. This is to make it look like Igbo's participated in the elections. Knowing fully well he will loose.

We will not allow that. We have reached the point of the no return. And for any so called Nigerian politicians of Igbo extract who thinks he can stop our struggle with a fake presidential ticket will have himself to blame. Anybody who thinks otherwise should go to Abuja or Lagos and vote.

That very day we will have a sit-at-home. Any saboteurs found at any polling unit will meet its end.

A word is enough for the wise.
Many of you errornously assume that anyone that criticize the igbos must be an enemy,thus you forgot to do a soul searching and self appraisal to see where things are going wrong n what possible remedy can be applied, right from the misadventure of nzeogwu n his gang in January of 1966 to the visionless stand of the igbos after the death of yaradua n now the mindless rascality of IPOB, the igbos has always been the architect of their own problems,if you people like you can go on with your madness,if you like you can have a deep reflections n amend your ways before it's too late, it's all up to you people, time shall tell.

PoliticsRe: Nigeria Can Repeat The Sunak & Macron Examples By Electing A Young President by Deepthoughts: 8:03pm On Dec 26, 2022
Afro3:
Nigeria can repeat the Rishi Sunak and Emmanuel Macron examples by electing a young president -- Accord candidate, Prof. Imumolen

Nigeria can jump on the bandwagon of the ongoing global fad in which a new generation of leaders are taking over the reins of power in many countries of the world by electing a president of youth extraction in next year's general elections.

The recent emergence of 42-year old Rishi Sunak as Britain's Prime Minister, exactly five years after France did the same in electing Emmanuel Macron as president, has supported the growing belief that youth is the way to go in a world now fast jettisoning the old order.
Accord presidential candidate, Professor Christopher Imumolen, a youth who is gunning for Nigeria's highest office in next year's presidential elections, says a better signal could not have been sent as to the direction the world is now heading with the latest developments in Britain and France, insisting that it only further reinforced the position he'd often held on the matter.

"Those who have had me talk ceaselessly about the benefits of allowing a young person take the reins of power as Nigeria's president have often wondered why I have been so passionate," Professor Imumolen said on Tuesday.

"But the truth is that we need a new generation of youthful leaders who would be ready to give their all for the overall betterment of this country.
"The emergence of Rishi Sunak as Britain's Prime Minister is a significant message to the countries of the world, particularly Nigeria that the era of relegating the youth in the general scheme of things is over.

"If countries like France where Emmanuel Macron has been president since 2017, and Britain with all their experience and technological know-how, can entrust the affairs of their countries in the hands of young, upwardly mobile professionals, then I don't see why we should be different.

"For those who don't know, Macron became president at the age of 39 -- the same age with me -- and has since become the only individual in French history since two decades to win a second term in office after being re-elected in April this year.

"What about Rishi Sunak? He is only 42 and the first person of colour to hold the office of Prime Minister, Britain. These examples clearly buttresses my often held beliefs that we must go the way of the youth if we desire a refreshing change from a chequered past of underachievement as a country.

"So, I'd use this opportunity to once again urge Nigerians to vote me, a youth who is vibrant, mentally sound, healthy and ready to change the status quo and deliver to them the true dividends of democracy.

"I want them to check my profile and make up their minds as we all journey towards 2023. Let's do it the French and British way. Let's vote for youth. Let's vote Professor Christopher Imumolen as Nigeria's next president," he added.
Not just voting any youth,but capable n prepared youth,by the way which age bracket forms the youth?,if you would ask me,the minimum qualifications for any elective post now in Nigeria from councillor above should be a first degree or it's equivalent,but some people no go gree but they will be shouting youth youth all over the place.

There are lots of nigerian women who won't sleep with a married man.

I was in Computer Village the other day day and I overhead one lady tell someone: "You are a married man.You have a wife at hom. Leave me alone".

She bears guilt, especially when you consider she's not an impressionable 16 year old.
I have seen a lady said same to someone married yet same lady later agreed to date another married man so it's difficult to put the blame on the lady,the responsibility lies more on the married men,at least it's better to use a contraceptive method.

Messi is not defined only by World cups, World cup is only 6 or 7 games and we are talking about a 1000 plus games career. The consistent otherworldly quality Messi showed in the toughest leagues, the UCL which Pele unfortunately did not participate in pits him above Pele IMO. The quality of Santos football in the 1960s cannot be compared to todays UCL and La liga.
Man Pele winning three world cups from 1958-1970 starting at 18years amisdt the racism n brutality couple with his skills n the outrageous number of goals he scored is no mean feat,it was maradona's effort to almost single handedly guide Argentina to the world cup in 1986 that made him such a great,if an Egyptian player with Al Alhly should win 20league titles n 6CAF champions league such would not be considered a true great but if same player were to win the world cup three times with Egypt without playing in Europe wouldn't such a player be considered a great player?or if Tyson fury captures the undisputed world heavyweight boxing belt today would that make him greater than Mohammed Ali? think deeply Messi is surely great but certainly Pele is still the greatest.

Well, Messi has been found after One month; With the World Cup Trophy!

He is also the only two-time World Cup Golden Ball winner in football history.

Say a prayer for Pendu and soon-to-be Mbappe fans.
Messi can never be greater than Pele,what more at pele's age,the racism n brutality of the game during his time,he recorded unbelievable achievements winning the world cup three times n scoring 12 goals,Messi is no doubt a good player but he enjoys so much protection today unlike in pele's era, Messi is great but Pele is the greatest.
