Shame de catch me
See what Nigeria has been reduced to . CHAFF

Must they always travel? our public holders live to travel for anything at all.

Hypocritical statement. Asking the people to endure when the leaders and policy makers are not showing any signs that they understand the assignment.

These days the looting and steal are according to dollar vs naira rates.

MASTERCHIEF0847:
Tribal bigots will learn a bitter lesson, this is just the beginning till they start pushing the naira in wheel-barrows to just to pay for purchase of bread like it happened in Zimbabwe next time they won't vote/support a candidate based on tribal/ethnic sentiments. Banza.

The country has been on a steady decline as the Sunny Okosun song 'which way Nigeria' released in 1984 quoted by the writer attested to. Nigeria's problem remains the same "Poor leadership and followership". We have been watching our nation spiral out of control for decades and all we do is build more churches and mosques, fight each other over whose turn it is to loot our common wealth and throw insults. Until we understand that we do not have another nation and that we must pass on a worthy legacy to the generations yet to come nothing will change.

I don't just understand what lead to the increase coz we have all the raw materials here. It's now 12k per bag in some places.

100 bags is ₦1m. How poor man wan take get house like this?

Just watch how they will explain it away afterwards like it is a normal thing for the price to go up so outrageously as it has in the past 2 weeks. Eventually what are the advantages of local production if prices can take to flight like birds in the sky.

We seem to be stuck in a behavioural time line. The more things change the more they remain the same. Nothing positive can come out of the current political way doing things. See where we are today as a nation.

All these activities with the sole aim and purpose to steal and corner state resources. Politicians are definitely occupying the hottest place in hell.

Earthquakes:
APC zombies need need to be flogged unclad

Nothing more to say than we did this to ourselves.

thesicilian:
Nice one.
It's not easy to come second in such a keenly contested tournament.

Indeed a very nice and welcome gesture from the government.

Quest7777:
Abeg forget tactics. You guys tried but Ivory Coast was simply better in that Final - either because of their home advantage or the extra motivation they had by the miraculous way they qualified from the Group.

True that is the way it was on the night. The Ivorians were extra charged and motivated. Our boys tried as tournament football is not easy especially against the host nation with everything at stake.

Hmmm first fruit still dey wait some people on top this salary delay o

Nigeria is still a bleeped up country. Na the love of the game, no be love for the yeye country.

Love of the country is not to be taken lightly. It should be like a religion - taught, nurtured and practiced so we can live it and be it then pass it on to the next generation continually.

D'Tigress are a consistently amazing team. Well-done yet again.

Thieves everywhere claiming to be honorable men. Very despicable set of elites and nation wreckers.

The lies upon lies being bantered by our politicians and policy makers with regards to our common wealth and resources wreck of wickedness and callousness from the very pit of hell itself.
How can we not continually care of what becomes of us and generations of young and unborn Nigerians. How can we be saddled with hopeless leadership perpetually thinking of their bottomless greed and pockets to the detriment of the nation they call home.

Security is tied to economic well being. Any president that does not know this has no business leading the country.
There are too many jobless young and able bodied people roaming the streets of Nigeria which is a recipe for disaster in the first place.
Arming an impoverish security personnel will not cut it as the will to do the extra required to combat insecurity is not there. We must get our economy working enough to support the population and in so doing we will be able to combat insecurity to a reasonable level.

No country can evolve productively if its young and capable population decides to ghost it because they cannot see a future involving them in their own fatherland.
We have to see this as a real malice and do everything to address it the root causes which is very glaring for us all to see. Nigerian youths must see and have a stake rightfully in their home country as the future belongs to them.

How do you say a country is retrogressive without actually saying it out loud. The old government is and has always been adjudged better since the inception of democracy and in extension governance in Nigeria. No government has come to out perform the previous government ; all we hear is excuses and stories and only for things to keep getting worse.

I have come to the conclusion that the lack of maintenance of our public structures and institutions is deliberate. There is no money in steady maintenance for our government officials so they prefer to let these infrastructures decay before another huge pay out to repair what should have been easily kept running with steady maintenance.

One day someone will come to power and these thieving lot will get served the justice the Nigerian people and state deserved.

When will the administrators of our universities focus on the real issues. It is called a university for a reason mcheeew.

When are we going to get pass this nonsensical greed that has left us at the bottom of all progressive indicators a nation should have.

As all other airlines will make a stop in their country of origin before proceding to Dubai this will make the Nigerian passengers only fly Emirates.Nice way to take out the competition without violating any rules. Only airlines based in Nigeria can otherwise operate as well if any.

God grant you long life to be in opposition again. Let's see how you will react being suppressed with the instruments of state.

NUC is not regulating the university education properly.
How can schools withhold student results after 2 years of writing their final exams.
If their are no guidelines or regulations that ensures fairness for students then there has to be some put in place cause students and their guardians are being taken advantage off.

I will like to point out a growing trend for concern in some of our Tertiary institutions especially Edo State University in this regard.

Where students after finishing their studies will be awaiting their final results confirmation for more than 2 years. In the process delaying NYSC call up and eventual working life or further educational pursuit.

This in my opinion is very insensitive and wicked of the lecturers and educational system that can inflict this kind of pain and worry on students they have taught and mentored for over 4-5 years.

How can lecturers and administrators go to sleep at night knowing they are holding other people's children future to ransom for selfish and totally unacceptable reasons.

This is no way to treat the future of the country as responsible adults who called themselves professionals. The government cannot do it all as many of our obstacles in this country are self inflicted with inconsiderate people making life unbearable for their fellow men/women.

NUC and the ministry of education must not let this become a norm as it totally negates the true essence of getting educated.

A people with no shame is that possible you may ask. Well with us Nigerians this seems to be the norm.
How else can we explain our present existence of constant degradation of everything around us as a nation from infrastructures to morals.
No Power
No Transportation
No Education
No Jobs
With all the monies we have spent in successive budgets down the years and nothing tangible to show for it than the present we all should be ashamed especially all those who have held public office.
What will it take us to realize that our existence is indeed shameful and requires national mourning. A sober reflection is called for to have Nigerians remember what really matters. National interest MUST remain a common goal for us all as a people.
We MUST compete and MEASURE ourselves with other progressive countries and people across the world.

Outright laziness of government and the NNPC/DPR to think up a solution. What is governance all about if a problem can persist for over 2 decades and counting.
Why cant we have the refineries 100% functional? Why do we have to continue importation of fuel. Why is there no solution to this constant headache of petrol and its pricing?
There is just so much selfishness going on that it totally leaves one stunned. Why cant we have problem solvers amongst us? Must we continue like this on a way trip to destruction?
Every successive government gives speeches lauding themselves on achievements made but Nigeria remains the same. Who are we fooling.

The lack of patriotism shown by succesive government to our nation is really down right disheartening.
How can we not see that we can be so much better as a people.
Nigeria should be a home to all Africans and a source of pride to our kind.
We must wake up all of us and demand better of ourselves and fellow country men. Nobody will fix this country for us but ourselves.

What is done is done as they say. The issue nownis to justify the loan and spending of the said sum borrowed.
The fact that these monies are not interest free should make borrowing and its spending a very serious buisness for our nation as we cant place future generations in predicaments totally unwarranted.

Some heavy behind the scene moves here as i cant believe shoprite will pack out of Naija based on economics only. Someone or something must have gotten to them. We will hear soon enough.
