Massiveglory:
Randy fellow quit disgracing yourself and battering the already battered image of our nation.

The nation is already too messed up in lawlessness and all sorts madness from the executive and judiciary.

Simply do the needful just like former senate president saraki did during his tenure.

Step down and face the ethics committee.
If found innocent you return.
If guility, you get the Hell out.


The case of the former NDDC boss who slapped you is still fresh.

Is it not just today Natasha just filed a petition, if e gets to where to step down he will or be advice to ... he is an experience senator who understands the rule

VinnyBaba:
Tinibu that appointed this Akpabio as SP should be Ashamed, honestly.

See the DISGRACE Akpabio has brought upon the Senate.
Very Lousy, Loudmouthed fellow.

In the Days of David Mark, Ken Nnamani or Bukola Sakari, you can't see such Rubbish in our polity.

But This Woman Wrapper Man called Akpabio has turned the House into a JAMBOREE centre.

Una don start, social media chief judges ... where is the saraki today naa so una decieve him chanting baba oloye .

where is Dino melaye with all the social media noise pollution you kids constitute

All the senators that have spoken over the matter not one as given support to Nastasha, not even her fellow women sen ireti, sen ita giwa none

Aunty you don put the cart before the horse, you can be right but if you dont know how to present your case b4 the law you fit come out as guilty

Fight no be by gra gra .. social media will push you till you land inside canal then they move on to annie and tu face or Vdm

Politicstoday:
she has already got the court order here. All this ranting no work

Gotten a court order you say ! you live in Nigeria or on social media republic

Natasha did not file a case with the senate disciplinary c'mittee in the 1st place therefore she has no grounds to plead the court impede it

shebi we dey here, we will see how it unfolds

Politicstoday:
Natasha is very smart here . She knows the game well

smart by counting on social media judiciary abi, naa so una push saraki, push fubara .. now natasha is even pushing herself

You dont join a cult and expect to win against that cult, soon nigerians we move on .. e go remain natasha nd the senators imagine being an outcast

histemple:
Have you seen the prayers thereof?

Can any institution probe a matter that is already before a court of competent jurisdiction?

Natasha out of naivety placed the cart before the horse, there are due process and protocols

If she has any case against any senator within the house, she registers her case with the disciplinary committee and if their judgment is unsatisfactory she then can proceed to the court of jurisdiction, that's the sensible process.

House of assembly has it's own check and balance, even the court will need the senate disciplinary c'mttee investigative report to review and give a verdict.
we Nigerians are backward, i shame for us

Clevite:
No Court has the power to stop the Senate, the House of Representatives or any sub-group thereof from performing any of their Constitutional duties. You can only go to court to challenge the outcome or result of such duty.

Natasha is digging her hole deeper than it is.

i taya for this country.. 😄😄 everything is a joke, smh

Blazetrailer:
Bro.....i wonder too...

The dela rue guy has been spewing gibberish all across topics on Nairaland Ns I have been ignoring.

Not sure he is educated or most probably a dropout with access to cheap phone and MTN data.

Maybe he pass through school, buh someone that wrote eco 101 - 401 can never posit Nigeria has "excess" dollar inflow.. how??
Even if he was employed online to spew nonsense cant he ask his employer for a beta nonsense, person eye dey see for NL

DeLaRue:
The naira is not even being subsidised now.

Some of this so-called experts don't even know what is going on.

1. During Mr Buhari's regime, the CBN was supplying about 65% of the total dollars sold in Nigeria.

2. As of today, that figure has fallen to around 3%!

3. Since December up to now, the CBN has been stepping in to buy dollars because more dollars have been coming into Nigeria than the market can absorb. If the CBN has not been buying the excess dollars, the naira may have appreciated too fast, may be to N1400. That would have created a new period of instability. The CBN prefers the naira to gain or lose very slowly. That is what businesses and investors prefer. They don't want drama.

That situation can change but for about 3 months now, the net contribution of the CBN to the forex market is only about 3%.

That is a fantastic development.

The Naira is currently operating on its own based on market forces, with little to no net contribution from the CBN.

You must be a dunce, how can you posit an excess dollar into the country is detrimental to the local currency

Do you even pass through school at all, do you understand the basis of demand and supply law
excess dollar inflow into the economy resonates with a favorable balance of trade, ... what records shows Nigeria has favorable balance of trade

How do you posit excess dollar at a time, int'l oil price keeps droppin and our National budget is being run on a deficit

CBN buying up excess dollar ke ... you sure say you go school

Racoon:
Crude oil prices fluctuate in the global market. May be nah to borrow again to fund the budget of criminality.

Cut costs of governance; reduce unnecessary spendings, borrowings with huge debit servicing, merge govt ministries( Oransanye report) and others but they won't listen.

the only thing they can cut is always on the side of the people

Pipefitter:
I don't know how any sane person will support Tinubus govt, previous govt maintained pms price at 180 naira per liter comfortably till this new government took over, on the day of his inauguratbion he announced subsidy was gone without consulting stake holders and within 2 days of his government pms Price soared to 600/liter against the 180.

I wouldn't have any issues if subsidy was actually removed to help government save but what I don't understand is why will he go back and start paying 3X of what other government paid as subsidy yet fuel is 960 here...

He should accept the fact he has failed Nigerians and has no clue what he's doing...

My point has nothing to do with his tribe, I'm just a concerned Nigerian. Thank you

Anyone that is not bothered over that statement must be either sick or an enemy of state

Tellmeastory:
You guys are very funny.

The average timeline between a 'commitment' to invest x billion dollars in a country, and the actual operation of that investment is AT LEAST 3 YEARS IF YOU ARE LUCKY.

More usually 4 to 5 years. A lot of work and meetings are involved.

A lot of surveys and environmental impact investigations, funding negotiations, profit-sharing arrangements, etc etc.....some places where certain minerals have been discovered by satellite or something, there are no roads leading there at all because they are in the middle of nowhere. So we have to build the roads to reach there first, which can take a couple of years at least!

I mean, these things drag on for years before anything is on ground!

What is the trajectory with Apc govt, under these govt Nnpc declared profit then came back to announcing owing debts or should we talk about the countless incoherences from these govt

IF the govt has attracted investment into the country even if its too early to see the impact, is it also too early to know the investors and what they plan to do

Is it not these governments that claim one investment company is coming into the country and those ones debunked it, maybe na why dey no mention names

If you think not trusting these govt is unreasonable, please make sense of their trajectory

EXOUSIAng:
You have spoken as far as your eyes can see.
And you are short-sighted due to your ignorance.

The government can't help you with that

Why not tell us what your own eye saw, the last time before you Japa, i really want to know what you Know .. make sense please

you are sick fly down to UCH or luth, come n see the wonders of govt you support

Setup a production or service business in Nigeria and feel the cost of operation and tell of the wonders of ridiculous levies and extortion you have to pay to various govt agencies visiting your premises simultaneously

A govt that can not pay promised 70k to corpers what can they possibly help with ... 70k is not even up to $50 .. in how many months do you make that

EXOUSIAng:
Your joblessness and poverty is not the status quo sir.
I live in the UK but my businesses in Nigeria have me the most money in the last one year.
Agriculture being the chief of them.
Go and get knowledge, most of you hating the government for hunger and lack of jobs are not even employable. Most of you have nothing to offer.
You can't blame the government for your ignorance.
If I ask you the last time you picked up a book now, you may not even remember....

Now instead of taking correction and taking advice, watch how he will come and rain insults on me.

I dey UK I dey farm for Nigeria, last December I was on the farm harvesting yams by myself.

You go dey Nigeria, you no get work but pride no go allow you enter farm.

Proud people should have something to be proud of. Having on an empty pocket and empty stomach is the dept of stupidity

1st you are not in Nigeria, but somehow you feel you can posit the present govt is doing well and whoever is complaining in a country minimum wage cant full an suv tank ... must be jobless, lazy and wretched.


Uncle Nigeria pay you, you leave your papa land go stay inside snow... you're here shouting farming paid you more than your job abroad ... are you being fully sincerely, are you not into farming so you can export items and sell over there ... you think we are dummies here

Do you know how many people have lost millions of investment in farming cos of Insecurity and lack of govt interventions plus unstable policies...

You ran abroad, and you have the audacity to talk down on us who above all naija limitations are striving to keep up a good standard of living, why not come back to Nigeria and hustle so you can make sense about the govt you support

Aiauto:
It is unfair to lock the whole market because of few people criminal activity and NAFDAQ people are even looting some shop, even orthopedic session are locked people that need assistive devices are affected

what is unfair is a market that provide haven for fake producers/seller ... these traders cant lie they dont know those selling fake but they claim mind my business

If you dont want to suffer for the sins of others push them out, even bible talk am say were sinner dey recieve woto woto saints go join share inside.

when punishment spreads people will become more useful intels against crime ... how can someone be producing fake baby food ... all because of you wan form odogwu for village

Nafdac should not pity anybody

papyjaypaul:
I think you should read my first message one more time

i value my mental health

papyjaypaul:
I had a hard time trying to understand this but I will assume you misquoted me.

I googled what Quran teaches Muslims about work. Teachers who will teach them are at work. Mo Salah and Mo Farah work while fasting. Ahmed Musa played for Super Eagles while fasting.

You dont even understand yourself, there is no religion that promote idleness not even islam
What the northern governor did only resonated with the myopic mindset of their people, not Islam ... what Islamic nations are considering is time adjustment for schools closing hours as none shuts down school

You can blame the Northerner's mentality But this one is not on religion

papyjaypaul:
It's always this division and division. It makes the world boring.

If MURIC is not being mischievous, show us where Muslims are told to close schools or stop work because of Ramadan. Even the day they pray on Friday, they are told to stop all trade before their prayer and continue after it. This laziness we are breeding is an idle mind that will be the devil's workshop. Only in this part of Africa that people want to worship 24/7 and do no work in the name of religion. You can now see why those people who criticize foreign religions know what they are saying. It is not in our DNA to be lazy because we want to worship.

Your post is full of gibberish but couldnt ignore the bolded?

Uncle, is going to school work ??, the children involved are all under age So what as religion promoting laziness got to do with these
Are you aware there is a page in the bible that says; No food for lazy man
faith without work .. verse in the bible nko


Next time just shutup or let people with sense comment

mrvitalis:
Divide Nigeria let those with similar value system form countries in their own terms you said no

Restructure along ethnic lines so we can all rule ourselves how we see fit and grow at a pace we like you said no

You know very well the system is not working... There is no country like Nigeria that ever existed that grew and lasted... U want to tempt nature

The civil War that is coming would consume millions of lives and the sad thing is it can be avoided... It can be prevented

Even if you carry knife partition Nigeria along whatever line, will it stop migration

do people pick settlement by like-minds or by green pasture

should igbos get biafra today, do you think chinedu in computer village or chidi oke with two shops in ladipo will leave that to relocate to East,

the man should be replaced with a hot tasha babe

those in support say I, the I's already have it

iamL:
Shame don make you get sense.

here we go again, baseless accusations

lexotan:
For you to type dis and gather many likes shows the kind of senseless people will have in this country.

A married woman cries out for help against sexual harassment, you said she is chasing clout. When such allegations or accusations springs up, the senate should be able to set up committee to look into it.

The same Akpabio has been making unnecessary comments concerning Naija citizens, and also being in numerous scandals of lately and yet you are indirectly defending him.

Don't worry, wait till it happens your wife or sisters, you can then say they are chasing clout.

Its unfortuanate her cry out seems more like shifting goal post ... an altercation happened in the house, and from the look of things she seems to be the one wrong

suddenly she brings sexual harassment to blanket the real issue ... when tree fall on tree which one sensible person go 1st carry

iamL:
Why won't they be weary when they are all sexual predators and guilty, 99% of Nigeria men are sexual predators. If you know what career women are facing in this country you won't be saying this.

You called it a naive move because you are a Nigerian like them. If this happened abroad will all know the story wil be different.

Yeye men.

lol ! and as a matter of fact n experience i can tell you women feel dey have spiritual problem when Men are not ogling or sexually attracted to her

if a lion is not ashamed of being a predator why should Men be ashamed of who we are ... chase buh a big No to Rape and harassment

Every gender in nigeria is facing something, a gurl posted lamborgnini yesterday we dont even know her job,

Women that dragged Trump to court, what came out of it in a so called "sane climes"

Look at Meranda the fmr. speaker of lagos assembly, see her poise, maturity all thru and see how many Men rally round her against a man ... she may have lost but she won the heart of many

but feminist naa gra gra ... cho cho cho with 100% emotion

OfficialP:
During buhari tenure How much was school fees and house rent compared to now?

These farmers pay the same high bill everyone is paying, where will they get the money from? Definitely from their produce.

Tackle the root of the sickness, the symptoms will vanish

You are deviating, house rent and school fee under buhari is lower compared to now. agreed

We are not denying the necessity for prices increase But the bone of contention is our local market are "OverPriced , what i find more annoying is the fact that; For every increase in price comes with a decrease in quantity and quality of any local product.

cost of production should be the one dictating Prices, not lifestyle, taste or family problem which seems to be the case

The favorable solution to meet standard of living is upscale productivity, producing more increases your turn over rate but Nigeria trader see overstating price as a sure path to make quick profit

inflating prices to amass turnover is like pooing where you sleep .. the smell will affect people around and You tew.
if you sell yam nd inflate price you will meet me that sell egg there even gas seller they wait for us its a vicious cycle of karma

where their is inflation, a hike is tenable but Over pricing as we have seen here is what i condemn

DeLaRue:
Crude oil price at the international market has been falling in recent days and weeks.

Good news - Dangote and other refineries will probably reduce petrol price again within the next 2 - 3 weeks.

Bad news - Naira will start falling (slowly) because falling crude oil price means Nigeria's crude related earnings will fall.

The United States economy is also weakning and may go into recession. A weakened US economy combined with warmer weather in the US and Europe will likely mean less demand for crude and continuing reduction in crude oil prices in the coming weeks and months.

If crude oil price hits $65 per barrel, petrol prices in Nigeria could fall to around N750 per litre.

But naira may fall to around N1600.

Hmm

Oga, dem no dey use big prick threaten old grandma ... Nigerians are at that stage

we have seen dollar almost cross to 2k and fuel price was above 900 ..

if Pms should come as low as 750 and dollar at ticks 1600 it will still reflect + impact ... power is the main catalyst in production

Paraman:
If there's no importation of fuel, Dangote won't be reducing price like he is doing now

Why is he not reducing the price of cement? Government should stop the policy of banning importation

On cement matter i want to believe Dangote is transfering the undisclosed burden govt is placing on him to the buyers.

Local production should be leverage inclined, where we dont have leverages like rice, it is more logical to import

OfficialP:
The major problem is the high cost of living, inflation.

They will sell at normal price if there's no high inflation, so we can't blame them dat much.

FG should do the needful, bring down inflation, subsidize agricultural production and encourage massive investment in the sector until supply exceed demand.

Even @high cost of living, still on still most of the price hikes are greed incline,

i dont know of a time we agreed cost of living was low in Nigeria, before Buhari close our boarder to foster local production, our local farm products were more affordable

Even if FG bring down inflation and all, Our farmers n middlemen greed wont let it yield, in Nigeria," ise kekere owo nla" is what we all desire

id4sho:
They should gettat arraherrrr

We are too wicked in this country, a pal in taraba told me how farmers were balling. I know middle men(worse) who have made fortunes on sales of rice, beans and corn. Our beef and chicken are too expensive.

We need the imports oOoOO, see as Dangote refinery is giving importers hot hot 🥵🔥💥💣💯. That's the only way to get true value for goods and services. It's only in Nigeria that economic principles are defied 😕

This is just our truth, we know there are challenges But the larger part of the inflation is greed inclined, those middlemen have corrupt local farmers completely just like house agents are opening landlords' eye

I will always commend Dangote for what he is doing in the oil market, he could have join them nd be cashing out big big ... give Nigerians a freehand and they will abuse it next min

Since Nigeria has refuse to be compatable with standard economy policies then we might as well adjust to remodelling base on local pecularity

Buhari gave the head away for agricultural development, almost 10yrs downline no significant growth no gain, same stories and excuses from farmers while people are suffering, local rice is more expensive than quality foreign rice whats the point

insecurity might be a challenge, but our farmers and middlemen are not sincere, what we see is conniving and exploiting poor Nigerians

If our farmers and local traders can cite the dollar as an excuse to hike prices, then we might as well move to importation,

cr7lomo:
Akpabio can't crash.... Natasha will definitely be suspended and she will not return to the senate .... she just killed the little chance that bill on women having more seats in the Senate.... this shows women really don't grow , forget age ....

A lot of people dont even realize the reality, national assembly is like a men coven, ... we are already having a clue of what more women in the house will be like

Running by emotions wont carry you far beyond where you start

You learn 1st learn the ropes before you pick a fight, naive moves like this one is a setback to women emancipation

as much as women are aspiring to take positions amongst men ... the givers will now be weary

zero8zero:
Peter Obi has set a standard for himself in sharing condolences, failure to share it round in a fair and equitable way makes him an hypocrite. He travelled to Niger state to condole with the victims of tanker explosion at the hospital but ignoring the incident that happened in his own state. Patriotic Nigerians will keep reminding him of his double standards. And this is why Reno Omokri always give him a knock.

Obi has right to comment on any matter of choice, cos no law known nd unknown binds Obi to be a condolence automated machine,

everyday Nigerians die cos of bad/poor leadership, how many has the govt taken responsibility for,and in what way as APC govt shown sensitivity or emotional intelligence to the pains & hardship they consistently submerge the people into.
