EventsRe: Lagos Shuts Down Event Centre Where Petrol Was Distributed As Souvenir by duality(m): 6:36pm On Mar 05, 2022
WibusJaga:
huh

Actually found it difficult to believe how sensible folks could be handling such highly flammable substance as petrol & given it out as souvenirs.
Just needed one careless smoker with cigarette to come close &... boom! The rest will be disasterous history.
Yet Black market petrol is all over the street.
PoliticsRe: Is This What Nigeria Has Been Reduced To? One Word For Nigeria In This Picture by duality(m): 1:18pm On Mar 05, 2022
backbencher:
We are in this state because we won't let the petroleum sector sell fuel at a profit, and that has been the state for 49 years.

That's why we have routine scarcity, and have to import fuel. And why we lost our 4 refineries, and , until the 6 private refineries we have began construction, no local refining capacity.

Sell fuel /PMS at a profit, and you incentivize local production. Don't do that, you have queues, and no refineries, because no one is going to build a refinery and sell fuel below N200. Or even at N40.(And when Dangote comes on stream, he is not going to sell for less than N300, or he won't have enough profit for staff salaries, maintenance, and expansion and pay off the loans he took for the thing.)

The same queues were seen over 30 years ago in communist countries because the State wanted to sell products like sugar and bread and meat at a cost that would force the producers of such stuff to lose money producing it.

Nigeria is in the state, because in 1973, we chose to sell fuel at government controlled prices to help the poor....which in practice meant no profit to have decent refineries running, among other things.


(I don;t like Buhari , and I am aware that people would suffer if we allow fuel to be sold at market price. But the fact is, despite all the decades of subsidies, people are suffering...from the debt we run up to keep the said subsides)
Have the government not removed the subsidy??

Foreign AffairsRe: The Ukraine War And The Hypocrisy And Lies Of the Indigenous People Of Biafra by duality(m): 3:22pm On Mar 04, 2022
IhateYouMan:
The indigenous people of Biafra are ardent advocates for the self determination of indigenous groups to choose their own fate for the sake of peace and prosperity.

IPOB is also against the constant slaughter of Igbo people by the murderous Nigerian army and terrorist herdsmen, so they formed ESN to counter this unwanted violence in their towns and cities. This was a good thing.

However a large number of IPOBIANS are hypocrites because they are against the self determination of Ukraine and instead support Russia in their murderous invasion of a sovereign nation with all the destruction and death involved. They have posted false and doctored videos of Putin supporting Biafra and even gone as far as campaigning for the support of Russian troops and their allies in their genocide. These videos of Putin supporting Biafra have been proven to be lies and have nothing to do with Biafra.

IPOB members and supporters keep disgracing Igbos on social media with their unhinged logic, stark lies and support for racists such as Trump and dictators such as Putin. The violence they have unleased in Igbo land is second to none and we are all suffering because of it. IPOB is not strategic, composed, balanced or pragmatic. They are emotional, impulsive, abusive and incoherent liars.

It is time for IPOB to transform itself into an intellectual power house and re-strategise in order to achieve its goals which are noble and healthy for the freedom and improvement of the Igbo race and others. IPOB must also invest in the re-education of our youth with history, logic and truth.

Stop the hypocrisy and lies, it is making all of us look bad.
Do you support ipob self determination?

What possessed Putin to do this. Russia had a pretty strong economy with strong institutionns!! Russian companies were listed amongst the top 10 richest in the world, today they are wrecked.. there will be so many suicides in Russia. The has made some former billionaires paupers.

I am starting to think America indirectly pushed Putin by tickling his ego to do this knowing what will happen and how it would backfire massively... This is why it's always good to be wary of people praising you and pushing you to fight someone you are bigger than... In uni those days when H.I.T was in play they always send a smaller person to look for you trouble , you won't know it's a set up before you know it you are down. This is what I feel went on with Russia .

And president Xi of China has started speaking out against Russia, just let that sink in. A Russian ally China has betrayed Russia do you want to know why? The Chinese are not ready to go back to their years of suffering!!! Never rather they will follow and sanction Russia which is what is happening.

At this point I feel for Putin, he should do the honourable thing and step down

PoliticsRe: Tinubu: I Didn't Say I Will Fight Dirty, I Said No Insult Will Make Me Back Down by duality(m): 10:40am On Feb 22, 2022
Dsalvo:
Tinubu is a man who does not speak for the sake of it alone. He knows what is to come.

It is the way. The Nigerian sytem will always fear those they feel have the appeal, character and reformational talent/charisma to win elections and transform Nigeria. Like Awolowo or Abiola for example.

Same system conspired against Awolowo to crown the inept Shagari who only moved us backwards to the detriment of every Nigerian man, woman and child living in Nigeria beyond 1979.

They are up to their tactics again and we must ask what, for example, is all the shenanigans of Buni and co in aid of if not to cheat Tinubu of the right to fight fairly for the right to be APC candidate?

Tinubu should go for it. Yorubas are firmly behind him. So also many non-Yorubas. From day one, and long before Tinubu revealed his ambition, Buni has been shouting about not letting one "strong man" hijack APC.

Is that what Buni should be saying, if him and his crew understand the need to deepen our Political Party democracy, or should he be working to make APC a fair platform democratically available to all and denied non as his oga, Buhari, benefited from?

Tinubu is right to warn he will fight to be President. He knows opposition against his ambition goes all the way to the top.
Be careful what you wish for.

If you see the fight you want, you may not like it.
