From a Islamic point of view, his actions are wrong.
Nobody said his actions were right but how you handle wrong doings is what makes the difference . Handle the person as human or attempt to lynch as fanatical barbarians

MrSundry:
This is absolute rubbish. Debiting people for transactions that occured since 2021 does not make any sense. Why can't they start the enforcement from 2024 transactions

Don't mind them ..them for kukuma deduct from the year Abacha was the president till date..they don't know what they are doing .

We are too quiet in this country . Everybody should rise against such deduction ..even if it is a protest .

They started something this year but want to go as far back as 2021 to start deducting, who does that

Foreign Affairs / Re: UK Prime Minister Sacks Minister, Paul Bristow Who Called For Gaza Ceasefire by eddyland: 8:37am On Oct 31, 2023
zinaunreal:


There is oil at gaza strip and israel wants it. That strip of water there is very rich with oil and gas. It belongs to Gaza. Anyways hezbollah has started sending long range missiles deep into israel and very soon their general will give a press conference . The goal is to have the Palestinians leave but this will be israels greatest blunder despite their acclaimed intelligence .

Israel thought people will keep shut like it happened in Myanmar when the Rohingya people was displaced but it backfire. This is the real reason America wanted to get rid of Tiktok and other decentralised news but just like Tinubu was exposed for his corrupt electoral practices, it happened to them also.

Stop watching mainstream media. I can only advice you.

So after 7th October attack on Israel , Israel should just fold their hands and watch just to prove to you that oil is not their target ..na wah for your reasoning oo
Health / Re: Please How Do I Get Rid Of This Stubborn Infection??? by eddyland: 1:49am On Jul 22, 2023
Why do people always think that staph is a sexually transmitted disease . People really need to unlearn certain wrong things and start relearning the right one.

Staph most cases has nothing to do with sexually transmitted diseases, but I see many people always thinking it's mostly sexually transmitted, whereas it is not.

Staph is a bacterial disease found mainly on skin..it can also be found in the nose or mouth ..

Even the OP is mentioning being a virgin cos he thinks that staphs are mostly sexually transmitted..but staph is not even an STD to start with.

Knowledge is power !
Food / Re: Why Did Nigerians Stop Drinking Tap/Borehole Water? by eddyland: 9:28am On Jun 24, 2023
ukaface:
I can’t speak for others but for my family.
When you keep frequenting hospital for typhoid, then no one will tell you
First we went from boiling the tap water then adding water guard but then the taste wasn’t welcoming, then finally switched to pure water.
What do you think is pure water or where do they get pure water from ?

Pure water is simply borehole water that is purified.

But if you happen to visit some places that the pure water are purified, you will still switch and stop drinking pure water...cos some even keep their tanks and purifiers near their sewages and very dirty environments

Politics / Re: Tinubu Has Dodged Poisonous Knife By Not Appointing El-rufai – Shehu Sani Mocks by eddyland: 7:30am On Jun 08, 2023
How can this country be good when it is continuous recycling of these same men that have been ruining and shortchanging the entire country.

They will serve as governor or other position, they will reappoint them again in another government to serve in other position, as a minister or COS or Senator or SFG etc ..and the rotation continues and the country continues to retrogress.

They are all jack of all trades but master of none ..

Someone that was governor that knows nothing about electricity will be appointed minister of power. Someone that was governor that didn't fix anything in his state concerning education will be appointed minister for education.

They kept recycling these men and thinking the country will change..let them keep deceiving themselves .

That's how the past administration appointed himself as minister of petroleum , someone that knows nothing about oil and gas.

This administration has started again with recycling of these same men. People just get appointment based on lobby and not based on competence.

We are finished in this country . By the time Tinubu finishes the reminant remaining in this country, everybody will continue to be wailing wailer .

Politics / One Major Problem Of Nigeria Is This, But People Sometimes Forget by eddyland: 9:04am On Mar 21, 2023
One major problem of Nigeria again is the proliferation of Agberos.. These are thugs, miscreants and criminal elements that you will find in high numbers in different parts of the country.

And these Agberos are partially legalised by government because the politicians use them as thugs during election to disrupt electoral processes.

So you will find these agberos operating everywhere in the country at unhindered way.. The police overlook their illegal actions.. The government of each states know that these agberos exist but always keep quiet.

The agberos operates in parks, under flyovers, in virtually all parts of the streets causing mayhem day and night to innocent citizens at the glare of security operatives and politicians.

A country that allow agberos to keep and maintain laws illegally, what can you say of such country.

These Agberos are illegal traffic controllers in the day time, illegal tax collectors in the day time, phone snatchers in the day time, full blown criminals at night and thugs during elections.

They constitute a whole lots of nuisance in open manner unhindered, they are bunch of jobless, toxic and dangerous youths, yet Nigeria government allow them to thrive.

When a society is filled with agberos, what good do you expect to come out from such society. They agberos don't even value their lives and existence not to talk of respecting others lives.

I think a sane society should first of all rid every nook and cranny from agberos, let there be saner people first hovering or hanging around before we can start talking of meaningful development and achievements, because it is sane humans that build nation and not agberos whom are nation destroyers.

Some of these governors have lost it completely. How will you be urging citizens to implement their own policy.. After collecting the money, they can't deposit it in bank. You governors should channel your effort or sympathy to the appropriate authorities in charge with monetary policies and not urging citizens that are neither lawmakers nor cbn.

Is it hard to know that the ordinary citizens cannot do anything about what is going on.. Instead of you to be looking on how to sue FG and CBN governor, you are there asking citizens to start implementing policy at their own that will be at their detriment

The citizens suffering are only doing themselves. What does it cost to open a palmpay account, even some have accounts but adamantly refuse to accept transfers because a fool will buy money to in turn buy goods from them. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with this policy except the illiterates suffering from it implementation.
You don't even know what you are talking. Must everyone open PalmPay? So you don't even know what PalmPay did to people last week huh! As thousands couldn't access their palmpay accounts..

So you don't know that if everyone open palmpay as your little mind suggests that palmpay will also become congested.

So your grandma in your village should also open palmpay with her torchlight phone. How are we sure that network is even in your village.

You just open mouth waaaaa and start seeing others as illiterate. Talk is cheap

Politics / After Only One Month Charade Of Constant Power Supply,where Is The Light Again? by eddyland: 6:48am On Sep 10, 2015
I told people that last month when many parts of the country witnessed increased power supply was only but a mare charade on the part of stakeholders in that sector of the economy.

Last month, no doubt that many part of the country witnessed increase power supply, and in our end, many people attested to that.

But my question is, what becomes of power supply that cannot be sustained even just beyond 1 month. Is that development?

Mind you that this month of September, the tide has turned back to normal darkness at our own end of the country as the increased power supply that we enjoyed a little the previous month has waned.

Remember that even that last month that we enjoyed little increased power supply was not the first time it is happening.

We have witnessed that in similar manners with other previous administration.

The major question is, where is the sustainability, if not a mare political stunt and charade that our government are pulling.

I am expecting them now to come out and tell us again as usual that there is gas shortage and vandalism of power installations and that is the cause.

Business / Re: It’s N209 To $1 As Appetite For Dollars Falls by eddyland: 5:13am On Aug 04, 2015
jjman2322:
I see there arent a lot of business men here or company owners.. Let me explain how things work before you keep applauding the CBN:

#1. In the USA, you dont need to deposit in other currencies because you can WIRE OUT YOUR USD to any country and they will convert it to their local currency.

What this means is that if im in USA, I have $50,000 USD in my account, i Can send that money to Japan, China, europe, etc.. This is not Possible with our NGN.. You can't wire Naira outside Nigeria without converting it first.. So the CBN governor is a donkey for comparing both countries.

Our currency is useless outside Nigeria. Some of you that have traveled out know you can't convert naira in UK, USA, China, however my dollars are good all over the world.

#2. This policy will lead to more unemployment. Lots of companies buy spare parts, machines from China, India.. Let me give you an example.

Say i need a new part for my machine, I get quoted $5,000 USD by a company in China.. The quickest most reliable way to pay them is to buy black market and deposit the cash in my DOM ACCT, then wire it off, and in 2 days they have shipped my part.

With the new policy changes, there is no easy way to pay for these parts.. LC's and Bill for collections are taking 3-4 months since the CBN does not have enough dollars for importers and manufacturers..

Let me explain in simpler terms:

If you wish to import raw material for production (which 100% of nigerian manufacturers do,(from plastic, to pharma, etc), then you have two ways of paying for the raw material:

LC = Letter of credit, which basically means the bank in Nigeria debits your account, then once the shipper ships he gets the funds..
Last year and two, LC's were getting approved in 1-2 weeks. Now it is taking 3-4 months, so many manufacturers now source black market funds to pay for raw materials.

Bill for collection basically means the shipper ships on credit and you submit the paperwork to the bank for payment. CBN usually approved the funds in 1-2 weeks, the last bill for collection submitted by my company took 4 months for approval. If it were not for black market we would have stopped production and had to lay off people.

Many of you aren't into business and you don't understand what is going on. Let me explain in simple terms.

What this simply means is that lets assume you have N5,000,000 and you want to go tour around and have fun in Europe:

Back then, you could convert your Naira into dollar, pay into dom acct, then travel and have fun.

Now the only OPTION is Naira card which now thanks to CBN has daily ATM limit of $300/USD per day, and maximum $50,000 per year spend per customer.

For the average poor person who never crosses the border, this doesnt affect them. However, many Nigerians need to access more than $300/day and $50,000/year.


Also, lets assume you want to buy a new car for your child in USA. Value of car = $20,000. Back then you go to mallam, buy $20,000 USD, send it to your child ($10,000 per day CBN LIMIT) and in 2 days your child buys the car. Now with the new rule your child better get used to taking the bus.

What the CBN effectively did is prevent many law abiding Nigeria from remitting funds abroad. Its kinda like banning driving at night because armed robbers operate at night.

For the average person , this policy is meaningless. For the rest of us business men who source parts, products abroad, we are in for hard times.

Goodluck all
