Foreign Affairs / Re: UK Nuclear Missile Test Fails Again After Trident Weapon Belly Flops Into Ocean by descartes400: 2:46pm On Feb 21
nairalanda1:


Fighting world war 1 and 2 is what weakened the UK army and also the french , German and many other European armies

Especially world war 2.. millions of men died in that war. That had a long term impact.

Also, no more empires to maintain. UK had a large army when it had a mighty empire. Since the 1960s,that empire has been dismantled. It would be a waste of kudi to keep up the army.

Russia say Hii!

From Fineman2 , God1000 to Allenspencer, are humane Nigerians who recognized the fact that Israel is committing GENOCIDE in Gaza.
As a Nigerian I'm proud of South Africa who took them to the International Court of Justice.

I always know that leadership isn't as simple as office seekers always paints it. I believe he's in shock now after realizing how difficult the office is. Even Atiku or Obi wouldn't have fared better.

True talk.

Most of these politicians especially those seeking the presidential seat before they capture power tend to behave like social activists like femi falana but when they eventually capture power that's when they realise that political leadership is not social activism.--the reality of wetin you dey see when you dey outside dey different from when you dey inside .

the annoying thing is the previous occupant of the seat go just keep mute...while the incoming is basking in the euphoria of being the new comer..hmm never even drink water drop cup hmm eyes clear.

The product was seized by German customs and analysed by the German Official Medicines Control Laboratory (OMCL). The analysis report showed the product contained undeclared amounts of sildenafil (150mg), which is above the maximum daily dose for sildenafil,” the regulatory agency’s statement read in part.

....And our own NAFDAC gave this product their approval stamp little wonder people from that side have flooded the whole country with fake and adulterated drugs because regulatory bodies in this country are I effective paper tigers.

You know say Naija Man body system strong wella to withstand the mixture...but them oyibo...with dem gmo process food, are more susceptible to the side effect of this ogbonge mixture.

Hopium:


Lol. Gibberish.

These are part of the reason the CBN said we've dollarized our economy. And how does that stop anyone from earning in dollar. Earn your dollar whereever you want but you are getting the naira equivalent in Nigeria: that's what the CBN is saying.

You lots are irredeemably sick. You've castigated the government for the bad naira strenght. This is one of the way naira is going to gain back purchasing power and you still dey complain. Dem swear for una?!

You all want to earn in dollar, keep money in dollar, there are even hookup girls in Abuja and Lagos who insist on getting paid in dollar - are we in the USA. Even out banks keep ridiculous amount of dollars. Where do you expect naira strength to come from?

Una never see anything.

Ogbeni shut up. Government could force those platform exchanging higher rate to register under it's regulations or get delisted from our country. When you send Naira to the US , do you get Naira there or USD? Mumu talk here and there.


Looking at the policy through the emboldened one I can infer that it is a good policy.

The government should come up with series of policies targeted at reducing the influence of the dollar within our domestic economy. Also they must shore up industrial production that will enhance exports so we can earn more dollars at the international stage.

Politics / Re: Only Illiterate Blaming Tinubu For Current Hardship In Nigeria by descartes400: 8:42am On Feb 05
Resurrection212:
Some of you that blaming the president for the hardship don't even remember that you have governor in your state or representative in the state
house of assembly green chamber and red chamber not to talk on chairman of your local government. Or your governor complain that Tinubu didn't pay him federal allocation just like former president also doing?

Its really sad that many people still believe that there is a messiah in somewhere thinking that if their messiah won the election he would had done things differently. undecided undecided let me tell you the real fact nobody would have does it better .

God even save peter obi that he didn't win the election because by now Nigeria would have just brought down to her knees because of protest that will erupt from both north and southwest.

However I still want Nigeria to pay attention to the history of governance since 1963 we gained our independence. Meanwhile since British gave power to our fathers Nigerians only enjoyed government when regional government was practiced .

You guys supposed to know that since 1999 Nigeria is getting worst in each administration because no administration that Nigerians will not complaining and whites will not accuse our politicians for corruption.

Tinubu shouldn't be blame let our leaders come out and meet the president to let Nigeria practice what will work for them instead of waiting for another disaster messiah.

The only thing I see wrong in your post is ....excusing Tinubu from blame. He must collect his own blame too....he is currently flogging Nigerians with scorpion whip!

While Iran seat at the back pouring fuel to the fire, Yemen and the world bear the brunt of their foot soldiers.

I was against Buhari's treatment of Shia Muslims and their boss but now I think I understand one part of his reasons for doing so—Iran's indirect terrorism

You conveniently accused Iran, Yemen etc of terrorism while you unconscionably close your mind to the fact that the No1 terrorist country on earth..is the USA.

I'm not a Muslim neither am I a fan of Christianity...but l'm proud of the Yemenis, l'm proud of Lebanon, l'm proud of Iran, Syria that has form the axis of resistance against the mayhem of USA, Israel and l'm very proud of our very own SOUTH AFRICA!

Is that the reason access never have dollars in their miserable life? They collect your dollars but hoard it and won't give it back.

Everytime you go to the bank, they will tell you no dollar and expect you to go aboki.

Many of these BDCs are just syndicate for these commercial banks that hoards dollars...thereby creating dollar cartels and ruining the economy.

We are talking specifically of tomatoes here,the OP stored a sac of freesh tomatoes in a deep freezer, W He didn't blend the tomatoes and maybe parboiled it....then stored in the freezer...

By the time that sac of tomatoes is defrosted...he ends up with a mushy and mealy tomatoes.

If he had "grounded" them as we tend to call it and stored the freezer, farmplanetNG will not be so hard on him.

You erroneously and conclusively posited that women are not wired to render financial support to their partners...in other words women cannot offer financial support to their men if and when the said partner is in need,since they (women)are not capable of such an act, because they are not wired to
