The fact that some nigerians in their right mind still defend this stupidity called cost reflective tariff annoys me. When it's time to justify wickness you make comparison with the rest of the world but when the masses demands what's obtainable in the rest of the world pertaining their welfare you simply remember they are living in Nigeria and not spending dollars.

Has power generation improved significantly? I relatively have same hours of power since 2010 in my area, yet bill is shooting off the roof.

You know the joy of it is that we are all in this mess together. How do you justify this massive inflationary effects in 10years of a particular political party's rule.

Only kids and fraudsters will not complain of this regime. To an adult Nigerian now 10, 20, 50 and 100 naira notes are virtually useless.

A country wants to bill us like the western world yet her minimum wage is less than 50 dollars. Let's all continue pretending that all is well. A big burst is coming soon.

2/3 of Nigerians are not civil servants. If you are one, organise a protest. You have a union or is everything politics to you people?

Electricity is never cheap.

Before this band A,B,C of a thing, I lived in a place that always have constant electricity in Abuja and our bill was the highest for any residential area.
Estimated billing was so high, everybody opted for prepaid meter. And no complaint. The people living there can afford it.

Welcome to the real world.
Electricity is never cheap anywhere in the world except Nigeria.
But if you go to the north, their metering is diff.
Even on band A, they pay very little.

BABANGBALI:
Another factor is that men's sperm is no longer producing intelligent childrens like before due to lack of nutrition

Intelligence comes more from the woman not the man.

You want an intelligent child, marry an intelligent lady.

Mamayam:
1 cup of beans has close to 4× the protein as 1 egg at just twice the price.

Heck, crayfish at 200ngn has way more protein than eggs.

Consult your secondary school textbooks.

What made egg different is that it contain all the amino acids that make up complete protein.
You can never get it in any of our beans.
Egg is called powerhouse for a reason.

Feldie:
they scammed people into eating beans with the lies that it's protein. It's not like the beans is even affordable anymore anyway

Depending on the type of beans.
The type we have is still okay for plant based protein.

Soyabeans is also beans and has the highest protein so far for plant protein.

Soyabeans is cheap. The question is, do Nigerians eat or try soya beans like tofu or soy milk?

We don't have many things to chose from as what we call foodstuff are minimal. Aso, we are very poor country so we easily go for what can fill belle which are carbs like rice, yam, potato, cassava.

Added lots of weight

South Korean culture is very hostile to everybody, especially the elite. Their celebrities are the worst hit.

I said exactly the same.

Jestin:
Lagos lead, Anambra follow

Do you know how you guys usually look like to viewers?
People suffering from low self esteem.
People that are so idle that they have so much time on their hands to be chasing shadows.
My friend, stop wasting your time online with frivolities. Lots of people have benefited from being online. Be wise. Made people advise themselves before it's too late. Your parents were not moaning tribalism when they conceived you. You chose what you want to be. What you become in the next decade is shaped by today.

Your choice.

Acidosis:
Ahah... I am learning to ignore Naija matters. Bad bad news everyday.

We are doing fine, my sister. They turned 1 last month. ☺️😍

Why you no tell me na, at least, birthday drinks from my side. Do let me know next time.
Happy birthday to them.
I know is a mixed feeling for you but you should know that some things are beyond our power. Also, seeing them makes the pain ease a lot.
Give it time.

Acidosis:
The only way out of the mess

Acid, how you dey?
How are the kids?

Naija matter will make you forget what really matters sometimes.

He should show by example.
Start patronising Nigerian hospitals, motorcade should be made in Nigeria exclusively. So he and his cabinet should start patronising innoson.
Walk the talk.

No be today we started hearing this.
Buhari said so too.
Radarada.

Long overdue.

Also, let universities set standards for admission.

If your O level is flawed, you can enrol in the university of your choice and complete their A level in the discipline or related discipline you want to study. Or get A level somewhere else in the field or related fields.
That is the standard world over
Nothing like qouta system.

Babangidapikin:
You make false assumptions , by the way they are penalties for bypassing light and not everyone would bypass light , people who bypass light are usually former NEPA staffs

The people who bypass are actually the so called rich men, not the poor ones.

Politicians, those livingbin mansions driving exotic cars,even religious leaders bypass.

Electricity distribution companies already know that. The reason their bypass team go to big man area to check for bypass everytime. Poor man can't even pay for bypass. Besides,na the same nepa officials dey do am for people.

basilico:
You need to add that most American movies nowadays have a trans , a lesbian, a gay, a brown or a black in a prominent role.
My daughter is hellbent on kdrama Korean drama series . The others are happy with telenovelas from Mexico and Latin America.
Personally I stopped my Netflix subscription because of the woke shit.
I'm happy with DSTV.

I don't want to add that as it will overshadow my main point but yes, this too is among the reasons American movies are no longer gaining worldwide recognitions. Stopped watching them ages ago as they don't excite me. Even my kids don't watch them. It's so bad, actors like a whole Tom Cruise went to south Korea and join their reality show just to promote mission impossible and some other big shots in Hollywood. This started even before trump did his first term. A popular chinese drama in less than 5 months will stream billions in china, billions outside China. And I won't lie, I love their drama. They started promoting gay and the backlash was too much, the govt banned it. How will Hollywood sell LGBTQ drama and movie in china?

I will rather watch Thailand LGBTQ movie or drama than Hollywood. America will make you hate gay people. The orientation and waiting for public acceptance was too short and forceful. And they are still everybody's face like you must accept me or I will deal with you.

fritiyo:
They didn't tell you that, china has ban the showing of American movies in all their cinema's . Trump is doing what other countries are doing to them.

The problem is not even American movies.
Asian Pacific which is the target here don't watch American movies that much. Every year, the number is decreasing. They prefer their local contents.
The koko is the streaming platforms. These companies are reaching out to their English audience through America almost free. So companies like Netflix can't compete with them. Netflix don't come close to what they offer so people are fast subscribing to them and ditching Netflix. As long as you love asian Pacific dramas, you have no business with Netflix. Also they are so cheap unlike Netflix. Netflix projected gain from like 5 years and above from these countries featuring their movies and dramas but they have already cornered Netflix. So instead of gaining, Netflix will start losing if something is not done.
I subscribe to the platforms in question and I know exactly what is happening here.

jocelynor:
Go see their port its shrinking, the guy doesn't know wat he is doing, China is American biggest contributor to cinema, if Asia decide to ban them u think Hollywood go get profit out US

You don't know what you are talking about.
Do you subscribe to Netflix, viki, IQIYI, tencent, jiohotstar and others?

If you don't,step aside as this is beyond you
I subscribe to 5 of these and I have already explained what's happening like 1 month ago before this.
If this is not done, Netflix and the rest will die natural death in no distance time. And they have been overrun by these foreign platforms in their country not outside.
Trump is fighting for the survival of American companies and these companies came to him for urgent talk before he took this action

JUST IN: 🇺🇸 President Trump announces 100% tariff on all movies imported into the United States.



I explained this either here or somewhere else not long ago.

Only people who don't understand what's happening will fault this man.

I as a consumer of entertainment know that Hollywood is fast losing it to chinese and other Asian Pacific nations as far as entertainment is concerned.
Platforms like Netflix is projected in the near future to make most of it's gains from Asian Pacific and with the influx of cheaper streaming sites from china and India, America is on a long thing.

Netflix has about 300 million subscribers while tencrnt, IQIYI, jiostar are clocking 600 million from Asian Pacific where Netflix projects to make her gains from like 5 years coming. And these companies have their English platforms headquartered in America.
So they sell their products to the world from America extremely cheaper than America that will buy from them and sell to the world.
Hope you understand the breakdown before you start your condemnation.

I explained why I left Netflix like a month ago or so and others who love asian dramas are leaving in their numbers. We have joined these Asian Pacific platforms cos 1, they are more interactive. Like a forum.
2, they are fast. Netflix comes late to the table and takes like months to finish airing as far as deamas from these countries are concerned. Not ready to wait. They don't stream.
3, they are very cheap. I pay around 200 plus for Netflix yearly. With that, I subscribe for vip or standard pass for 4 streaming platforms and still get change. Every year, Netflix is adding more money for subscription.
4, Asian Pacific dramas and series are where the fun is now.
5, you can even watch their drams on youtube. Netflix won't do that.
So why will I need Netflix.

Prime is worst.
An amazon prime member but will not go for their movies or drama. Why should I rent a drama to watch. Dem dey ment?

raumdeuter:
Trump ate Taco they complained
Trump went to Saudi to touch the orb and do their spear dance they complained.
Trump went for an event at McDonalds they complained

The same people asking if he can dress in Moslem attire will be the first to complain

They are the same people who made cartoons of naked Trump all over America.
His naked wall cartoon is even selling online.

Jokers.

raumdeuter:
As an adult you are free to choose whatever you want to be, The society is just not obliged to agree with you.

Lebron James can claim tomorrow that he is Jill Biden. He has the full right, but the right stops when he wants the society to address him and give him the rights of a first lady like moving into the whitehouse with her husband

Loud it!

Amayabor1:
Are you living in the mansion in Nigeria? How much do you make a month in Nigeria? How good is your source of income?

And who told you every Nigerian living abroad is living in a one room studio apartment and working like a slave?

The way you Nigerians back home talk as if every Nigerian abroad is washing the bum bum of a white man is so stupid.

An adult left Nigeria and decided to travel abroad for many reasons (like better life, better security, professional and career growth, dual citizenship etc.). But Nigerians back home will be castigating them as if na una give them the money to jakpa.

Stay in Nigeria if you want to stay and allow those that want to jakpa to jakpa in peace.

The thing is that even those washing the bum bum of white man is the reason many of them are surviving.
Ingrates.
Diaspora remittance was what is holding most of them together.

If Ngozi decide not to send money home or sponsor anybody, just minding her business and living large, they will still rush here and scream that she is an ingrate.
You see poverty, it's a psychological disease.

Seun should start paying this guy

Uk this, UK that everyday.
It's only in Nigeria, you come out from school, get employed and start living in a mansion as a single.

Go to Japan and see their cubicles.

Dig out more stories against UK while the embassy says a diff thing.

We will never hear stories of how the same Ngozu is remitting money to family and friends every month. When you that is badmouthing her is sick, you will still beg her for hospital money.
Have never seen jealous people as Nigerians in my life. Don't know if it's caused by poverty.

Lesson for all,don't ever mingle with people beneath your level. Anything can happen.

CaptainGo:
Pen & paper is not even the problem.

Why did they initially refuse to properly mark her script & grade her? What level of wickedness is that?

It can be a simple mistake. Omission by mistake.
These are what you get when you use ink and paper. If it's online, her script will show error and the prof will see that immediately and make correction.
Besides, her work will be saved on her student portal and lifted if needed.
We just like to suffer this side of the world for no just cause. What schools spend using paper is triple of that school using Internet.

The world have moved on, some courses don't require exams anymore. Just assignments of so so number of words in whichever format the lecturer want. And also referencing. It's a very important part of assessment abroad. That way, no plagiarism. You can also do presentation.
Not cram and paste. Who does that these days.

Make schooling fun and easy for heaven sake.

Abroad, your exam script will pass through a lot of hands for review before you see your grade.
You will also get feedback.

By the way, they still use pen and paper to write exams in naija universities?

Incredible!
What is wrong with this cantry?

How we all were deceived by this man and the media. He was born in Kenya but the dad was never a black dad. Actions happening now and during his reign makes sense when we add the dots together.
