Silly move

Just shut it please

Medipharm:
Can 13 weeks equip you to work effectively?

No

Strange story.

So....they were arrested for packing sand?

This country keeps getting funnier by the minute.

No it is not normal and yes it is possible for her to do this without any romantic interest in you.

It may simply mean she appreciates you or wants something from you

The chicken is finally coming home to roost. Next on the table will be COVID-19 vaccine

jaxxy:
it's better to teach them the responsibility and positives of using a smartphone than restrict them at a certain age cos they are becoming more aware and need guidance not naivety.

That's your opinion. I don't want to go into details but my advice to you is to do some research and let that guide you in your final conclusion.

uuzba:
Anybody that wants smartphone should go and work for the money and buy it
No money, no phone

Even better

Modified: Don't give smartphones to kids who are still in secondary school, regardless of their age

Outdated and Corroded Pipelines

Issue: The pipelines transporting Nigeria’s crude oil, constructed in the 1960s and 1970s, are now severely corroded and beyond their operational lifespan. This deterioration has led to increased vandalism, making it difficult to evacuate crude oil to terminals.

Solution: Public-Private Partnerships (PPP) for Pipeline Infrastructure
Countries like Brazil have successfully revitalized their oil infrastructure by leveraging PPPs. Nigeria should adopt a similar approach, inviting private investors to co-finance the replacement of old pipelines with modern, corrosion-resistant alternatives. This will ensure more secure transportation and reduce vandalism.

Insufficient Funding by NNPC

Issue: The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC) lacks the financial capacity to undertake the necessary overhaul of the pipeline infrastructure.

Solution: Attracting Foreign Direct Investment (FDI)

Nigeria must boost investor confidence by offering incentives such as tax breaks, fast-tracked permits, and government guarantees. This approach, successfully implemented in Angola, has attracted billions in foreign investment, enabling infrastructure modernization without overburdening state coffers.

Smuggling of Fuel Across Borders

Issue: The persistent smuggling of fuel from Nigeria to neighboring countries is driven by the lower prices of petroleum products domestically, facilitated by security agents complicit in the illicit trade.

Solution: Market-Driven Pricing with Enhanced Border Controls
Mexico, facing similar issues, implemented a two-fold solution: adjusting fuel prices to reflect market realities and deploying advanced surveillance technologies at borders. Nigeria should gradually phase out subsidies while using drones and satellite technology to monitor border areas, making smuggling more difficult and less profitable.

Limited Crude Supply for Local Refineries

Issue: Although the Federal Government has committed to supplying local refineries like Dangote, there is concern about whether Nigeria can ramp up production sufficiently to meet domestic and export demands.

Solution: Expanding Exploration with Incentives
Indonesia faced a similar challenge and addressed it by offering financial incentives to companies willing to explore and extract oil from underdeveloped fields. Nigeria should implement a similar policy, offering tax incentives and reduced royalties to attract more exploration and boost crude output. This will ensure enough supply for local refineries and export markets.

Implementing Practical Solutions for Long-Term Success

To overcome the myriad challenges in Nigeria’s petroleum sector, the government must adopt practical, proven solutions tailored to the country’s unique circumstances. By modernizing infrastructure through PPPs, attracting FDI, adjusting pricing policies, and incentivizing exploration, Nigeria can unlock the full potential of its oil industry. These steps will not only solve the immediate problems but also lay the groundwork for sustainable growth and development in the sector, benefiting all Nigerians.

Thank you. These days I use AI to filter out the noise and to make sense of any document that I read

It's truly disheartening. I sincerely dont know how people are coping.

So the school didn't teach them medicine and probably taught them geography assuming ur illustration is right? If the school didn't get requisite approval... doesn't mean they didn't imbibe knowledge.

Sorry about my earlier typo.....don't give up nau .. let's conclude.. why are u supporting the evil regime?

Good night

I give up. Please think what you want to

Funny post. Nice one

Zetty177x:
It's wrong for the to be retrospective...why not ban the new people....

I understand where you are coming from. Really I do. However, the truth still remains that they got their positions through fraudulent means.

Think of it this way, your favourite family doctor was suddenly discovered to have a fake medical degree. Will you still allow him to treat your loved ones? Your answer is as good as mine.

I know it is painful but the right thing is to let them go

You gotta admire his tenacity.

Looks surprisingly young for his age.

As for his arrest, someone clearly doesn't like competition. While they are at it, they should also arrest Elon Musk as well since he supports nearly the same ideologies.

Color me shocked.

What exactly does this agency do besides arrests?
Has anyone ever been brought to book following these arrests?

If yes, kindly share.

Wonderful.

The moment the government starts demanding for irrefutable proof from doctors to confirm these miracles, the sooner these people will stop deceiving the masses.

Hmmm.... If their degrees are truly fake, then it is only apt that they are dismissed. They should look into other countries as well. Pretty sure that there are others involved in this scam

GloriousGbola:
for anyone who thinks you can stumble across that money and get away clean

I understand. Still have chills whenever I remember the movie

[quote author=GloriousGbola post=131658447][/quote]Saw the picture posted and remembered the movie which starred the actor. Truly horrific

Return it back immediately while keeping track of all communications along the way which will include recorded calls, conversations etc.

Rubbish

This is harassment and shouldn't be condoned

DaddyCoool:
Not so fast. We ought get together as two high achievers

I don't know how we can do that if you doubt who I am

DaddyCoool:
You called it a "fact"?
You sound very authentic but this is NAIRALAND -
a forum of wonderful transformations!
How's biz? You in Lagos?

Well, I understand. Do take care

Adieu.... My sincere prayer is that you live to enjoy your wealth

DaddyCoool:
Wow, that's beautiful. But this is Nairaland, many males are females and vise versa; and many Igbos are Yorubas, Hausas are Igbos, etc.😆

Interesting. Are you alluding to the fact that I am not who I claim to be?
