Hmm
Kano state is constitutionally entitled to refuse feeding this power into the national grid.

Hmmm
How many times will thunder strike before you know you've been paralyzed?

The invite is usually sent to the Nigerian President asking for his permission. The reason GEJ was at Aso rock to say yes to the call to service. The Presidency replies in the affirmative, provides a presidential jet, sort out all other logistics minus handbags and off goes Jona.

Time we restore sanity to the whole budgeting process. Traces of a responsible NASS and executive gradually creeping into our democratic space. Kudos to both arms of government.

Does he have any electoral value?

Then how much are they paying in Biafla?

Anambra state still paying 7.5k minimum wage.

Press Statement

A cowardly call

Johnnyessence:
upon this bail condition, Nigerians will still protest heavily on his release.

Until then.

PassingShot:
Bring credible evidence of bail granted Elzakzaky and Dasuki?

Sowore was asked to submit his passport but he drops only the Nigerian passport which is not what he uses. He should submit his American passport naah.

Interesting. I never knew about the passport issue? So the guy would have japa!

Sowore I want to bail you. Hope you wont japa .

TwoBottles:
Why is Ecobank not on the list??

Ecobank do give loans but at varying interest rates of 28% to 34%.

ogmask:
Same thing happened to Ibeto with the active connivance of GEJ. Dangote sees every other competitor as a big threat.

What happened to Ibeto cement? Kindly elucidate.

anonimi:
Why did you fail to mention Tinubu also

Whatever tickles your fancy. INTELS was kicked out
Imagine loosing the lucrative oil logistic services for refusing to pay a pittance of $140m.

Pride before a fall.
I will advice BUA to desists from engaging in a media tussle with NPA, the regulatory body. Even if you win the present media war you are still bound to work under NPA regulatory framework. NPA is your landlord. Atiku INTELS failed to realised/was ignorant of this fact when it adopted a belligerent approach with NPA when it clearly was at fault. Today Intels has been kicked out from the Southern ports for good. Heaven didnt fall.

God bless the president

Malawian:
Fulani herdsmen are preventing Nigerian farmers from Farming and the FG is now preventing alternative source of food. This is akin to the food blockade during the civil war. It is still early days for the effects of this policy to be felt. 180milion Nigerians will eat o. As if we are doing Benin Republic a favour by letting them sell us food we will eat to stay alive.

Typical igbotic reasoning.

What is wrong in being the 6th largest or even the largest importer of rice in the world? Nothing if the situation calls for it.

Benin and Niger aren't the biggest losers from this border closure. It is Nigeria.

Nigeria does not have a problem with growing rice. Nigeria can even produce enough rice to feed the whole of Africa. Nigeria does not have a production problem.

However, the country has an economic problem with rice production. Nigeria lacks comparative advantage in rice production. We can't produce it cheaply like Thailand, Vietnam and India, the only 3 countries that have comparative advantage in rice production, the 2nd largest consumed grain in the world. The first is wheat. Nigeria therefore will be a net importer of the stuff.

The only way Nigeria can be self sufficient s by a ban. Assuming the imported stuff is 11,000 and the locally imported one is 17,000, a ban makes the imported one unavailable and people have no option but to purchase the locally produced one for 17,000. The question I want to ask you is how does paying 17,000 for something that was previously 11,000 actually help the average Nigerian? Maybe there may be some poor housewives out there who don't mind paying 17,000 for something that was formerly 11,000 but majority will frown at it!

Countries do best when they focus resources on areas they have comparative advantage. The British tried to encourage local farmers to produce rice but they were disinterested. They preferred cocoa, palm oil, rubber and so forth and that was what the country was re-known for. Palm oil was Nigeria's rice while rice was Thailand's palm oil. Nigerians still call this the golden era.

Do you know Thailand exports $1.8b worth of farmed shrimps yearly? Whay can't Nigeria export $2b worth of farmed snails for instance or $500m worth of grasscutters? It is estimated that sheabutter if well harnessed can bring in as much as $2b yearly as exports.

Imports are not the problem. They are even good for you. America found out that for every 1 cent reduction in import duty, it earned 3 cents in taxes in the wider economy. If import duties are low and trade is booming, does the money not trickle down? Don't you see people making money? High import duty achieves the opposite

People like you are the types we should never have in the first place
Smuggler, economic saboteur.

successmatters:
As at the time he wrote that, Buharri was dying slowly and using his demise to block the country progress. Even till now he has not regained any kind of life, just existing on the fringes while important national disasters like killings and kidnappings are left as if they are normal events. Buharri is surely using his slow death to block Nigerias progress. Kudos to Stanley Nwabia for pointing out the obvious truth.

Stanley even had the humility to admit that nobody knows when he will die. He died fighting for the truth.

See Igbotic logic

The breaking point hasn't arrived yet. The farmers have unfortunately become collateral damage in this David vs Goliath fight. Nigeria should tighten the screw further till the governments of Niger & Benin republics come to their senses and choose between providing safe havens for smugglers/economic saboteurs or looking inwards and encourage its indigenous economic activities that will yield products not subject to ban.
It is not easy to be the 6th largest importer of rice in the world. Question is to whose advantage/disadvantage.

dokyOloye:

Oga,what I mean is,a large number of Nigerians very recently said they prefer a disastrous buhari so if they're suddenly tired of him,the protest should start from those who voted him.Those of us who voted against him have already protested.
Then considering voter apathy(less than 30 million votes in a country of 200m ppl) those of us who make extra effort to vote every election year deserve commendation.

You never see anything!

ManirBK:
What happened to oil producing state that they can't pay minimum wage especially Wicked Wike!

Delta, Bayelsa, Edo, Akwa Ibom, Abia, and Ondo. The citizens of these states have forsaken their future to the demons ruling them.

mrvitalis:
What past ?

Your past, circa 1999 - 2015

FarahAideed:
Why are you involving me in this ?

Hmmm, be deceiving yourself.

mrvitalis:
Smarter than what ? The constitution is clear about federal character

Just remember power is not permanent

Agreed. It's periodic. No regime can achieve 100% compliance knowinglyor unknowingly. You were favoured in some time past.

mrvitalis:
Denying people there rights is wickedness

Right, you say? You are smarter than this.

SalamRushdie:
So Mr Stanley Nwabia never got to see the Nigeria he yearned for and Buhari still outlived him ..what sad story ... We shall outlive the oppressors of Nigeria in Jesus Name

FarahAideed, have you been banned again.. Deviate from iniquity, as you can see, no one knows tomorrow.

mrvitalis:
And some fools would ask how are Igbo's marginalized

When you were romancing and signing your fiture away to Atiku in last transfer window, what were you thinking?
Hypocrite, you term Nigeria a zoo and call its leader all manners of derogatory names still you want a part of the cake. What type of human are you? Ndi ara!

homesteady:
BMI is the medical standard for determining if someone is overweight or underweight.

Actually, it can be easily calculated = (weight)(kg)/height(m) ²

Underweight<18.5, normal weight 19.5 - 24, overweight 25 -28, obese 30 -34 ; morbid obesity 35 -39;
