Bad for Nigeria that's depending 100% on oil to fund outrageous budget.

Bad for Nigeria, main polithiefians But very good for Nigerians and the economy cos the main propellers are smes and people .

Govt is mainly liability and a curse to NIGERiA

maasoap:
I'm now getting 3.3 units for N1000 as a band A customer of IBEDC, no govt can claim subsidising my energy usage.

3.3 units ke, how long can that one last

With the way Americans are reacting, who cum vote Donald trump

Haydens:
Igbos, Anambrarians most especially are the financial juggernaut of this country.

financial juggernaut of Nigeria and none is on forbes richest 1-5 in Nigeria you no like gingernut

cococandy:
As an Igbo woman, I’ll tell you it’s not about Igbo women being the most faithful or whatever.

Marriage comes with a lot of ties. It’s physical, emotional, psychological and of course family ties, formed connections and roots. Doing it with one person is more than enough. Even in the case of till death do us part, who wants to do that all over again? Your kids will now have multiple sets of grandparents? That’s why I don’t understand polygamous marriages.

Lets not leave snake nd be shooting earthworm, the limiting factor for marriage or re marriage is the
RIGID CUSTOMS & TRADITION of igboland, revolting against kinsmen stand sometimes come with consequences or sanction

I Observe my Igbo friends don't joke with there hometown, its almost like an umbilical usb cord that must remain connected,

how igbo man wan convince his kinsmen to allow him marry a widow or after two woman ... it is there word over his

Nnamdipapa:
Those ladies with children marry non-Igbos mostly. Honestly, I think Igbo men mostly go fresh ladies and these other tribes have tendencies to still fall in love. If you are a single mother, the chances of an Igbo guy marrying you is very slim compared to these tribes I mentioned.

I am not saying this to disparage the Igbos to be honest, just an observation. If the husband dies and the Igbo lady has children, there are tendencies that she may remain unmarried for life. I think they stay with their husband more and find it hard to move on when the relationship ends. It might be a cultural thing though.

You are aint far from the truth, culture/customs are strong influence when it comes to marriages and remarry

Southwest to the best of my knowledge are the most liberalized from shackles of customs/culture and on a thought some part of Southsouth you mentioned are relative to southwest ...
You can easily find a yoruba marry a after one woman cos family/kinsmen allow full autonomy

As for South east, there customs/tradition are rigid-like, and rebelling against your kinsmen advisory mostly come with consequences

You can see a yoruba boy live all his life in Lagos or kaduna, but can still get privilege in his state of origin at any time, But a igbo man that dare to stay away from is hometown knows he stands no privilege among his kinsmen.


Regional flexibility is key to the discourse

Alliswell248:
Power is heavily subsidized.

Tell that to a child, On what grounds can any of you substantiate an epileptic power supply is heavily subsidized

On my prepaid meter, i noticed phcn now zapp units regardless of useage, people are billed for darkness and you dare tell me power is heavily subsidized ... substantiate it

helinues:
I see.

Those who have been productive have testimonies about the reforms.

and who are those being productive, companies are either down sizing or shutting down is that not the reality we all can see

Productions are step down into lower quantities and quality for a higher price, how does benefit come into any these

helinues:
Are you expecting government to put food on your table or money in your pocket?

Every responsible govt across the world subsidize essentials for there citizens

IMF directing Tinubu to throw Nigerians under a trailer are instituted in a country " where subsidy" is actively embraced.

why tell us what you are benefiting from these govt, that shouldnt be difficult

weyrey president it is much easier for a fake prophet to see Tinubu will become than for pastor kumuyi, oyedepo, odukoya or baba adeboye to see fuel will become #1000 per litre,

even my neibor joseph never dreamt egg will be sold for 250 per one nigba wo sii igbawo
oju yoboŕ runining oju aiye government

Same thing jonathan and Buhari staged to play Nigerians

Let me guess, Money will be appropriated, disbursed, commissioning shown on tv, then to the favourite phase, Funds looting

Seems politicians know Nigerians have short memory/dementia. smh

Govt of thieves for thieves with thieves

hush15:
Every thing you said I agree o except that one that you said that assuming he was in a range rover and still can't resist the urge to steal would have had spiritual inclinations... mba, I disagree.

Poor man dey steal rich they steal and they are both demonic possession of the human spirit especially in this boy's case cos me sef try reason am but can't help but come to the conclusion. The idle mind is a DEVIL'S abode, whether rich or poor o. The only difference is the magnitude of what they stole or can steal, afterall, our rich politicians without ideologies are milking the country dry in millions and billions.

Afterall said, you are right. Money over everything reigns supreme in Nigeria and guess what, at its very core is greed and selfishness. Discontentment in every nook and cranny of the country. Falsehood and lack of integrity. Taking advantage of one another at any cost even if it takes away life. It's so sad and those in authority are making it worse. Honestly, I feel sorry for the country and I do pray for it.

Oga i think you are just being over religious here, i agree a rich man can also "steal" But what you fail to reason is that,

A rich man that drives range would properly move to steals millions or gold But where a rich man is caught stealing chicken, power bank, or television thats odd, when you steal what you dont need to survive then we can weigh in "kleptomania or spiritual influence"

Can a rich man be idle sha ! educate me

With the way Govt is reinforcing poverty across the nation it unfortunate "Money over everything" wont stop ... survival is key and people would do just anything to survive and earn respect/relevance in a society like ours.

incogni2o:
I am shocked no one spoke about psychological therapy or spiritual deliverance for him.

This shows backward, ignorance, myopic, the Nigerian society is.

As I told some people.

Nigeria is cursed and everyone is suffering while trying to push the blame and aggression on one another.

Even common sense should tell you guys above me that there is more to it than meet the eye.

The cursed society will also carry out their generational curse by locking the guy up.

It's just a shame, this country is going down and down the drain.

You'll be surprised how this guy would flourish if he leaves Nigeria for a year.

A country where everyone is bound to fail except they leave to another country. You hear a lot of great ideas on Radio and TV but when those Men face reality, they get confused.

What a shameful and horrible story Nigeria is.

There are spirits and demons in Nigeria that makes people think and want the neighbours downfall for no significant reason and more so sensationalise the downfall.

True Christike love is lacking, even in churches.

Everyone is all Man to selfish self. It goes on and on.

You never see sincerity and Truth in the intent of what anyone is doing.

Night club locations competing with Church locations, yet the many churches don't have any significant impact on the character of the average citizen.

Even in myself, I feel these forces trying to frustrate the Good Plan that God has for me in this country.

Sincerely speaking, we need to humble ourselves and Pray and turn from our wicked ways and seek God's face, so that He'll hear from Heaven and heal our Land.

Oga you aint making sense,
1. 1st of all, Nigerians or a typical Nigerian is not wired for therapy
2. the chances that an idle poor man steals is spiritual is decimal low

If the guy had parked range rover or benz to go steal TV maybe common sense for tell us there is more to it


The guy is yoruba, in yoruba land ti iya ati baba ba bi e dá wa tun tun ara e bi i.e should your parent born you well you go further to rebirth yourselve well.
the mere thought of not wanting to disappoint the governor suppose deter him

Nigeria is not cursed, Our society was only founded wrongly on the basis of Money over everything, there is no country in the world that worship money more than Nigeria.
everyday people are building houses, buying cars, and launching businesses inside Nigeria how can you validate everyone is failing

i wil just ignore other things you wrote, maybe it is out of frustration

Oxtertee:
Na WA ooooo, why is it hard for people to learn from past incident

A mind hunger occupies has no room for anythng else except food.

nobody wey chop belleful go fit join them

i laugh when i see the so called elites nd expert dance around " marker forces" ... citing "competition" when prices come down


One thorn in the ass of Nigeria is the "foreign xchange" $ , until we face it squarely the economy cant make significant growth


dollar sneezes, everything in my country catches flu yet govt feign ignorance

Samantha125:
I already did the "I do".

They'll forever be that one person who'll look better than your spouse, what matters is self control.

in other word you meant i came late how i wish you dont have self control

Samantha125:
Too late... Already I found someone who could help.

its never too late to weigh your choices, b4 the "i do "

you know after most weddings ... we all get that moment of " where as this one being before i marry "

Samantha125:
Well, you're entitled to your own opinion... She made her own choice and we should respect it.

Some of us we want cute babies...😃😃😃

how many babies do you want, let me see if i can help

Jman06:
This mindset of yours is shallow. What's the need for making beautiful kids when you've got nothing to care for them?? This is why many guys believe that an average lady lacks the capacity for rational thoughts.

I'll rather make kids who are not so beautiful but would have money to enjoy good things of life than birth poverty-stricken fine-looking kids.

Your reasoning is beneath myopic, the lady you quoted she is not a Nigerian, money is not a centre of worship

I have seen couple that had beautiful kids when they had nothing but today there is money and there beautiful kids are enjoying

If you settle for ugly all because of money, can money fix "ugly" but financial status can change at any time.

The only way to prove that petrol can be cheaper is if someone starts selling at a cheaper rate. You can refine your and let us see how cheap it will be.

Oga, you are not talking to a typical Nigerian,

A cheaper fuel is not a taboo, Nigeria can actualize an "affordable" PMS if ;
1. The govt/Nnpc sincerely work toward optimization

2. The govt should desist from mortgaging more of our crude for loan in advance

3. Review and prioritize crude supply quota to local refineries, i think the present quota in PIA is about 450,000 thats less than dangote capacity, we have to step up

The key to an affordable fuel is in Naira strength,imagine $1/#500 imagine fuel price

Standing5:
you have the right to feel entitled to cheap petrol seeing Nigeria is a petroleum country, but remember the rice farmers, and how they used the intl price of rice as benchmark for their harvest, even after enjoying the lion's share of govt support to agric.

And what school of thought compels you to feel "expensive" should be an "ideal" .. you sound like it and thats what APC ideology seems to resonate, life must be hard, things must be expensive thats the only way

I can't blame farmers that are risking there lives and paying levies to bandits just to access there farm lands, beside whats the proof govt audio support get to the farmers, we are talking about an Apc govt that spent billions to feed school children no one saw ... even not a single parent can relate

The fact that Tinubu govt is so endear to rice as palliative is enough catalyst for "hike" ... moreso placing a ban on imported rice automatically triggers a surge in demand for alternates, high demand spike prices there is nothing locals can do about it, these where a responsible govt comes in nd subsidize


Naa govt get junk of the blame however you look at it

Standing5:
That is what deregulation connotes but Nigerians like to believe it should much lower than that and of a fixed price.

Oga deregulation or not, Nigeria as an oil producing national should not be a push around to int'l market price.

it makes no sense global oil price boom is a burden to Nigerians, we cant celebrate rise we cant celebrate fall in int'l price, regulation my ass

Nigerians are right to believe pms price should be lower as a producing nation ... we just have the worst set of people ruling us

CodeTemplarr:
Not bad considering that crude price has gone up after the last petrol price reduction.

I thot the govt and expert were all claiming market competition influence the drop in price few weeks ago ...

Now it is convenient to acknowledge int'l market price as increase But when it dropped they feign unaware

ElSudani:
Perhaps your own personal economy is in comatose, we perfectly understand. Like individuals, there are times when a nation needs to take tough decisions in order to thrive and survive. That is what Nigeria is going through.

You guyz should shut the fvckup already "tough decision" my foot, are we suppose to forget under Buhari 8yrs Nigerians were fooled into " make sacrifices n endure". Was it not the same stupid lies APC used to justify and defend Buhari outstanding failures

How do you validate removal of subsidy as savings when in actual sense Nigeria is not better than where it was 2yrs ago

APc want to talk about "waste" .. how about buhari wasted 8yrs

how about Tinubu wasteful spending on opulence .. the aso renovation, private jet, exotic car and incessant trips abroads with entourage, total minus the subsidy amount saved how much remain

Queengee:
On the 15.02.2025, I'll be embarking on a journey of eternity with my best friend.

It's a mixed feeling of happiness and anxiety.

In all, I'm pretty excited and pray that the event will go smoothly.

Thanks in advance for all the sweet words

All smiles !! on a 2nd thought just look at you, beautiful souls have nothing to fear,

Jones4190:
Felix Morka was right about peter obi, You are beginning to sound like Tegwolo. It seems to me you are out there to shop for bad news.

Show us your own shopping basket, as if there is meaningful good news

RealityOfReason:
Will your respect develop Nigeria or create an environment where lives are dignified? Else STFU, you ass licker

No you shutup, A develop Nigeria does not resonate planning or innovating crowd management for almajiri lifestyle or orienting people for hardship

A govt that dignified lives of the people wont divert or pocket interventions/palliatives

RealityOfReason:
This is the exact kind of moronic mentality that has made Nigeria a wretched shithole. Subordination of the rule of law for nepotism (man knows man) and you wonder why things are upside down? The law should take it's course

On what grounds are these Organisers culpable citing the constitution
