Point Fuckin Blank, this guy blasted the nail on the head. It Sure has raised a lot of people's hope on chance, but what are the freaking odds. If a similar story ever surfaces again it must be a staged one.

But this guy is fuckin up in trying to get people to see this, there's actually profit in making a large population of the people dumb. Hope sells and no link better sells this undying need like God. Even if a large chunk do not know this God.

One thing he failed to realise is that, her story could in a way help others continue in their trade or skill with determination that one day, their own breakthroughs will hit them, anything apart from that is BS. I hope he gets bashed for trying to cut the hopes of people even though he's right.

To you out there, truly miracles happen, just don't seek to find out how it did and you'll have your miracle.

read the post again and tell me where he actually down played hard work, focus and determination?

Peter Adeosun is to a large extent correct in his argument..

GOBE

watch the video and that guy actually made #CommonSense.

I call on the youth of this nation to imbibe the right culture, values and character to help save our future..

Op do yourself good by avoiding that beer parlour called igberetvnews...
its a ignominy to quality journalism

there is nothing special about this appointment.

chinchum:
That is still not much of an issue, the ministers can harmonise what they have for each ministries , and a new one is sent to the national assembly with the presidents assent. There have been times in the past when budget were passed in April, that is not to say that is ideal or right, but the current admin is a new one,not just a new admin, but a new party in power after 16 uninterrupted years of PDP. it has a higher likelihood for teething issues.

how does 16years of PDP inhibits the current govt from drawing up a meaningful budget?

so PDP is to be blamed for this economic heresy this govt calls a budget?

Naija9090:
Not sure I get your logic. Is Emefiele also responsible for fall in oil price? Is Buhari responsible for the fall in oil price? They are not and neither is Kemi Adeosun. The point is...We need people with tested economics and treasury background who can articulate monetary and fiscal policies to get us out of this mess. They are not mutually exclusive, Finance (fiscal) and CBN(monetary ) have to work to together to effectively get us out of this conundrum. If it means ban on some importation to boast local production to shore up our currency value to counteract the fall in oil price visavis oil revenue, that's where the Fiscal aspect comes in, and such policies have to be articulated.

true, but the CBN is already doing something similar with her forex policy. they have not exactly placed bans on the imported products. but have refused the supply of dollars to some sectors of the economy.

now this is what I call unbias

@Op u are indeed correct... BMB is unarguably one of the catalyst for development in the near future... His common sense revolution has shown COMMON SENSE is after all not COMMON in this country.

U look at a political party DAT came into power on the slogans of change, frowning at everything and anything good or bad done by the former ruling party... D myriads of corrupt practices both hidden and unhidden by all public officers of the former ruling party were uncovered. And they beckoned on Nigerians to call for the necks of these felons... And they promised that once given power the status quo would be different.

putting aside all the unrealistic campaign promises, even the most simplest of all those promises are yet to be implemented.

But Op do you know why Nigerians will see something as good as BMB and castigate?
The answer lies in the words of Prof. Wole Soyinka that says "If you fight corruption, corruption will fight back bringing with it everything it got"
Nigerians don't know exactly what they want, they are mere hypocrites.

Corruption has been ingested into the Nigerian system even down to her bloodstream.
painful to say is "Nigeria is Corruption and Corruption is Nigeria"
IT IS ENDEMIC IN THE NIGERIAN ENVIRONMENT.

People have come out to lampoon BMB as regards his early days at NTA criticising him for stealing during those days... While this may be arguably correct.
I make it bold to say that if Ben Murray Bruce is indeed a thief. Then Nigerians need more thief like him...

if it is true he stole during his days at NTA. The big question is what did he do with the money..
I believe that I would prefer a thief who will steal public funds and use it to create jobs that our diabolic govt can't provide, than a thief who will steal the same and build hotels and refineries in Dubai...

Ben Murray Bruce is a Nigerian entrepreneur who as of today has made more than 50,000 Nigerians employed by virtue of his many establishment.
If he did this with stolen public funds then may God provide this nation with ten thousand more Murray Bruce..

His name is Ben Murray Bruce
And
He just wants to make COMMON SENSE..

patriotic opposition by the PDP.

rottennaija:
Something we both know he isn't going to use it. It's just for publicity stunts and for those that which to have his type of "common sense".

And please, is he using innoson motors? Or the electric car he imported?
[size=14pt] Sorry, I'm just trying to make common sense[/size]

Sorry but you actually made NON-SENSE

Gov. Fayose and Sen. Ben Bruce are temporarily doing the job.. and very well at that...

MaleoPearls:
And you Mr Fayose are an INTERNATIONAL EMBARRASSMENT

HOW?

mynd1:
Good decision. Now our minister petroleum (state)mr Kachiku can now face his work properly without any distraction.

God bless Nigeria.

Clone2020:
Nigerian snakes embezzling like corrupt Nigerian politicians.

I don laff tire... Guy no kill person abeg

Khd95:
My question is where was his common sense,when his brother was d president,did he suddenly acquire some senses aftr gej lost to pmb

mr man. if we all have this mentality what time will be d appropriate time to checkmate this govt.
besides, Ben Bruce is a PDP senator and he represents the opposition.

or the opposition should not do what is required of them anymore?

the truth remains DAT u guyz have not been able to fault the common sense revolution of Ben Bruce.
when we see somebody doing the right thing learn to discard sentiment for the good of everyone..

poverty doesn't give q f***k which party u rep, ur ethnicity or religion

his followers will act like they didn't see this thread o

gigabyte13:
Ekweredu ko, kekere ekun ni. Go school, u no gree, u go dey jump fence in and out of school, instead make U follow gate.

Av u heard of any deputy SP replacing SP before in Nigerian history?

If Saraki is convicted, Ekweremadu assumes the position of acting Senate President pending when the Senate elect a new President. When a new SP is elected, he (Ike) reverts to his DSP role.
Ekweremadu can ONLY be removed by 2/3 of Senators present in a sitting provided that they form quorum. So far, PDP has 49 Senators making it impossible for APC Senators to kick him out.

why are u so quick to jump...

amaechi1:
If Amaechi spent only $150m as alleged then he is very prudent when compared with the amount Dasuki and co shared. Amaechi deserve commendation. Stop lamenting, the elections are over.

did u just type DAT nonsense up there...
so because its $150million , its not a crime at least one DAT cud be proved in a court of law...

these are the same kind of pple DAT applauded BRF for spending 78m on a website...

I now know why Ben Bruce preaches Common sense... its unbelievable but true.
MANY DO NOT HAVE #COMMONSENSE

wallex1983:
If Saraki gets impeached, Who becomes the SP?

Even APC is careful now.

with smiles all over....Sen. Ike Ekweremadu..

but let's see what Ahmed Lawan and his cohorts have planned out..

2rutalk1:
Devaluation is a DELIBERATE reduction in the value of a country's currency in relation to the currencies of other countries. Devaluation is different from depreciation. Whereas devaluation is deliberate, depreciation of currency is caused by some macroeconomic factors.

However, Devaluation is used to discourage import and encourage export of goods and services across borders.

How do we achieve this? When a country's currency is devalued, foreign goods (imports) become so expensive because the value of the country's currency has been reduced making the value of the currency of her trading partner to go up. In this case, the foreign country will be enticed to import from Nigeria (for instance) and our hitherto importers will equally buy Nigerian made products because of high cost of foreign goods. This makes our balance of payment to become favourable.

In the long run (in future), the high rate of export from Nigeria and low import of foreign products by Alaba guys (lol) will increase the value of our naira.

but the big question is... what are we even exporting in this country?
we don't run an export economy
.. for d now Nigerians rely largely on foreign finished goods for consumption... the climate for manufacturing is not favourable for doing business..
a lot of things need to be in place first.

Omotolu:
Buhari,if you are so incapable of governance, you should resign with immediate alacrity. Too bad he could be praising that cunny boy,Jonathan,who tried desperately to truncate the 2015 presidential election via Orubebe. Buhari should be praising folks like Jega and the Nigerian populace. In appreciation of that, he should put in place progressing economic policy for the common man.

u av not said anything...

Kastonkastroll:
Dude don't sermonize me with your silly jarons. Is this twitter senator not from the same bayelsa state were kidnapping, violence, water pollution are the order of the day? What has this twitter senator done for his constituency aside from constituting as a nuisance on twitter?

Mr. man sharrap ur mouth...when did Ben Bruce become a senator DAT he will use his constituency allowance to transform Bayelsa...

I always say DAT Nigerians are hipocrites and they don't know what they want.. you see a man who is using all possible means to checkmate the activities of govt while enlightening d public at the same time... he also proposes his idea to the ruling party on what change shud be since they don't know for themselves...

you are here castigating him...
Woke Soyinka said when u fight corruption. it will fight back..

guy ur stupidity is endemic!

katerine7:
How sure are u that that was d reason behind his giving out 2 mil, then we should also say that it was because kcee gave out airtime that was d reason wizkid decided to give out airtime too.
make ena stop to dey look for fight wey no go exist abeg, not everything in dis world is about competition

what is d correlation between kcee and wizkid... even a seven year old knows dat wizkid and davido has always been put in competition maybe not by themselves but by society. even both of them can't deny it that every once in a while they try to outshine each other...

Cholls:
my brothers and sisters please tell these guy to do something sensible with his money not this hyping hyping all around. .....there is IDP's scattered across the nation where they need the money.

God bless you... Its really appalling seeing dis.
simply because wizkid lashed out 1million at industry nite, he had to respond to prove what...
