Politics › Re: Shonubi Was Appointed Acting CBN Governor Because He Is Yoruba - Deji Adeyanju by delpee(f): 9:14am On Jun 10, 2023
Guyman01:
Buhari set the trend of nepotism, I have seen many Fulanis complain that Aisha is next in the hierarchy, they enjoyed it when Buhari was doing it appointing only Fulanis and taking every project to Daura
Shonubi has more years of experience in Banking than Aisha. In any case, he's acting. I believe that a new Governor will be appointed after Emefieles term expires in May 2024.

Wow! That post by Damilola is silly to say the least. What has tribe got to do with Guinness records? I don't even see why anyone wants to break a record that is yet to be approved.

Law wey no go carry water. You can't sell your land to someone else and still want to claim ownership. Hope the court will do the needful when you try any rubbish. What am seeing is people that want to shoot their own selves, this will make other states to target your own people.
Every land in Lagos is leasehold, the longest being 99 years after which ownership reverts to the State if they so wish. That tallies with the Land Use Act.

Only family land in villages can be freehold.

Politics › Re: Park And Pay Returns Back To Abuja (picture) by delpee(f): 8:12pm On Jun 05, 2023
CharleyBright:
These multiple means of extorting monies from Abuja residents.

My issue with this park and pay when it was operated last time was that the staff were thugs who aare deliberately difficult and only interested in making u pay fine of 10k instead of paying for the time difference if you park even 2mins beyond 1hr.
And also they deliberately avoid being around when u come to park your car and setting u up to park and leave without getting ticket so they can make u pay fine.
It is a money making machine for some people in govt.
Many government controlled parking lots in Lagos are semi automated and always manned, so you can collect your ticket before parking and pay to the cashier based on time spent on your way out.
They should do the same in FCT.

There’s limit to what a people can take. When you push and push and push the people to a certain level, they will get to a point they will start to not only resist your push but also start to push back.

That’s the situation in Senegal right now.

Since taking office in 2012, Macky Sall, the country’s president, has played a vendetta kind of politics and consistently used instruments of government to clamp down on oppositions and even disqualify leading opposition candidates from standing for elections just so that he can easily retain power.

This has led to over 400 political prisoners serving jail terms over different kind of trumped up charges.

But this time around, the people seem to have had enough and has taken to the streets.

What is interesting in the video above however, is that Senegalese soldiers who were most likely deployed to clamp down on the protesters are seen in the clip waving at the protesters just as the protesters hailed the soldiers in return.

This is totally in contrast to what was witnessed in Nigeria in 2020 when Soldiers were deployed against peaceful protesters in Lekki, Lagos, and what happened next is what we all already know.

I hope Nigeria is watching and taking notes to see and learn that there’s limit to what a people can take before they pushback.



for this and the tweets. I've been trying to understand what is happening there.

He has corrupted diverted subsidy funds captured in the budget up to 30th June 2023.

If he is suddenly discontinuing subsidy, should he also eat the money already appropriated for it in the budget for up to 1 solid month?

Yet his followers are playing games


Tinubu:0

Did you listen to the NNPC boss? There's no cash backing for the budgeted amount. NNPC was paying on behalf of FG.

Which Ipman, the same one that said NNPCL had increased its ex depot loading price. That those that already paid 7m for loading and have been issued loading receipt where asked to pay additional 14m before they can load products? Let's stop receiving ourselves in this country, this increment can't work without putting palliatives in place and increasing minimum wage.
Well, they can only sell old stock at the old rate. That's probably finished now so they have to review in line with the new loading price.
We will overcome some day.. ....

abatically:
They should. But the problem with selling at old price until July is the chaos it would bring. Those few days/weeks woud be very chaotic. Lots of panic buying, excessive queues at filling stations. Also some stations will refuse to sell, causing artificial scarcity, the fews that sell will become overcrowded. We know how our people would behave, knowing prices are going up in a few weeks. It's a bitter sweet situation to be honest. Sweet because fuel would still be sold for 185 (nnpc) but bitter because it would become extremely difficult to buy.
Hmmm! It is well with us.

There was a space earmarked for tradition and culture (or something like that) somewhere between the National Mosque and the Ecumenical Centre in Garki around Area 8. I think it was to serve as a cultural centre.
I wonder what has become of that.

Updated
It's been designed as a Cultural Centre and houses the millennium tower.

IPMAN has stated that they will sell at the old price since the current stock they have is subsidised. Maybe some of their members and the majors are not complying.

BOVAS has been selling at the old price. I'm not sure that they still have fuel though.

Mama BOVAS, Dr(Mrs) V. Adunola Samson in particular deserves a National award for always standing by the masses.
Business › Re: The Woman Behind Nigerians Smile -ceo Bovas filling station by delpee(f): 8:59am On Jun 03, 2023
May BOVAS and it's owners plus staff be forever richly blessed from generation to generation. Amen

I learnt that they're still selling at the old rate (PMS) at stations where they still have fuel because they say they're selling old stock.

These are the kind of people who deserve to win national awards. Unfortunately, it's often not so in Nigeria. sad

Mama BOVAS will always be the queen of the hearts of the masses. Their prayers for her will be answered by God's grace.

@OP
You made a wise move. Try to learn more and be open to specialised areas once you have a good grasp of the basics. Welding is more than burglary proof et al. You can make a fortune from it if you're creative with a good business sense.

May God bless your family and your enterprise. Kudos to your wife. She'll live to see you rise and shine to God's glory.

Wrong move.

You have opportunity to learn the poultry business while getting paid on it, but you choose to pay just to learn local welding.

I know some wealthy poultry business owners, I am yet to see a wealthy local welder in Nigeria.
There are Engineering graduates who learn welding or plumbing as added value. I know one who is currently with an oil company in the Middle East. He started with an oil servicing company in PH.

An educated person will not practice welding like a local artisan once he has a good grasp of the work. There's a lot more to some of these technical skills which are so well appreciated outside these shores.

Tough times ahead but we were warned that it's inevitable. We resisted the subsidy during GEJs era. GMB dodged the bullet but prepared all that 8s required to make it a reality (PIA) and pushed it on to BAT to actualize.

We'll weather the storm as Ngozi Iweala, Lamido Sanusi, Akinwumi Adesina and others previously advised, so we can have a better future.
