You live abroad as a Nigerian, it is hot. No peace anywhere. Nothing to make the people have some peace or relief. When you adjust to a particular policy, the change it, introducing other policies that make life harder.

Yes, but let the citizens have some peace in terms of costs.

Electricity is hard and yet people cannot purchase petrol to benefit their generators.

Gas is costly. Kerosene is costly. Firewood is costly. Do they want Nigerians to start cutting down trees wherever they find them to use for cooking?
Politics › Re: Reflect Global Oil Price Drop In PMS Prices, FG Tells Marketers by ElevationD: 5:30pm On Jun 29
“ The sector is now fully deregulated, a bold reform that President Bola Tinubu had the courage to implement. That decision paved way for the operationalisation of the Dangote Refinery and other refinery projects currently underway”.

The same thing that GEJ’s government was going to do, but was blocked by the same BAT in 2014?

No scarcity was not the effort of BAT, as he met the process.

Thanks to Dangote. At least Nigerians have some peace.

Hopefully BUA should aboard soon, along with other refineries.

In all, let’s have the price of petrol reduced to what it was before the war.

Go tell your brother to do it
So why did you make your post, seeing that you already made up your mind what you wanted your brother to do? Una no dey like to hear the truth and still una go dey carry una matter enter public space dey find advise.

You got a response on the basis of your request and you harshly replied. That was unfair and needless.

Your brother got a job in what is called a “corner side hotel”. The terms are not usually spelt out. The bar man can be the manager. The driver can be the cleaner. The security man can do all the jobs. The owner operates with distrust, as hotel staff use all available means to steal.

Except you have found a new job for your brother; or better still that you can pay him monthly, the option for now is to be patient until he gets something better somewhere.

If you make him stop the job and he finds himself without money, that may become a stressful point in the house. Again, please bear in mind that you are trying to live his life for him. Let him make his decisions as a man.

Whatever Tinubu said to assuage northerners who voted for him is his usual political business talk .

Is Tinubu not dealing with the Buhari cabal so much so they financed a failed uprising under the fake End Bad Governance protests and later financed a failed coup to overthrow him .

Whatever of the ADC that had all Buhari cabal members running to to try their luck in uprooting Buhari through the ballot?

Tinubu has never been close to the cabal who did everything to insult him throughout Buhari's disastrous 8ys .

I know it's hard for you to see someone who never voted Buhari now supporting Tinubu.

See me as a Wike.
You continue to play yasef wayo.

Someone says “I am this person” and you an outsider describes him as another. No be way be that?

If Tinubu is dealing with Buhari’s cabal, is he not dealing with his own cabal, going by his claim as Buhari?

Tinubu has never been close to the cabal and the role of El Rufai to his ascension is well known to everyone.

Boy, stop playing games with yourself and stop beating about the bush.

Stay there and be displaying your stupidity while forming smart. So after empowering them with 50k you will still go and implement wicked policies that skyrocketed fuel prices from 200 naira during Buhari's regime to 1300 naira now. You will still go and implement wicked policies that skyrocketed gas prices from 700 naira during Buhari's regime to 2000 naira now. You will still go and implement wicked policies that skyrocketed the dollar exchange rate from 400 naira to 1 dollar during Buhari's regime to 1400 naira to 1 dollar now. You will still go and implement wicked policies that increases taxations every single year. So at the end of the day, those poor people you're empowering with 50k will be left with nothing due to the high cost of living abihuh Who's deceiving who here sef Ogahuh See, better take that your beer-palour analysis to your village where everyone may be illiterate and ignorant, not to this forum where there are learned and exposed folks!!!
Bros, the young man is simply playing the ostrich. He took away his face from the fact of Tinubu calling himself Buhari. What Nigerians experience is Buhari himself, based on Tinubu’s words.

Funny you.

I never supported Buhari ever in my life.

I never supported or voted for Tinubu.

I am an objective bi-partisan spectator who knows when to call bullshit when he sees it and your Obi is oozing of freshly dropped bull crap just as Buhari was marketed as a Messiah that had all of Nigeria's solutions , so also is your Obi being marketed.

I only became a supporter of Tinubu because the options are terrible and so far Tinubu is doing the right thing.
Stop playing yasef wayo.

If you never supported Buhari and you now support Tinubu who said “I am Buhari”, is that not pure wayo or self delusion?

You looked at the options in 2023 and chose Tinubu, cementing the wayo life. Now look at it. You now face Buhari pro max. What’s better between what BAT/Buhari pro max has brought and bull crap? Buhari was your messiah in 2014 and seeing the horrors since, you denied him, supporting his pro max version. Leave wayo, make wayo leave you.

The location of Lagos State Nigeria, move that same location to Anambra state and see wonders of the Igbo Man. In fact through Anambra, all other states in south east will benefit from Anambra.

Just move Lagos State our Former Capital of Nigeria location and exchange same location with Anambra state.

You think it was because of Tinubu that Igbos or other tribes in Nigeria come to Lagos looking for greener pastures ? Do you know when Nigerians have been migrating to Lagos State Nigeria for greener pastures, do you think it started when Tinubu became Governor of Lagos?

You claimed to be my father's age mate but you know nothing about Nigeria, only how to hurl insults on people on social media is what you know.
No mind dem.

Na Methuselah life e dey show.

Lagos was the capital of Nigeria on the first of January 1914. That’s a whole one hundred and twelve years as the capital. Ask them why Lagos cannot be compared with Johannesburg, Abidjan, Rabat and even Kigali. Ask them to compare the allocations and revenues of the two states and tell us which of them has the upper hand. Why won’t they even compare Lagos with Kano, which is far older than Anambra state? What about Rivers state?

On August 27, 1991, more states were created and not just Anambra alone. They are Adamawa, Delta, Edo, Jigawa, Kebbi, Kogi, Osun, Taraba, Abia and Yobe.

Why not compare Lagos with those other states created along with Anambra state on the same day?

By the way, why not compare Osun state with Anambra state and let’s see? Which of the states mentioned above fares better than Anambra state?

Na dem way. Na jealous dem dey.

So pls
Thank you for that. So you have confirmed it all with the word “disaster”.

Tinubu said “I am Buhari”, remember? By those words, always remember that BAT is Buhari himstlf. So if the name Buhari remains, it automatically means the word disaster continues. Thank you for conceding to the fact that Buhari and “I am Buhari” na disaster.

There's a saying in corporate that if you can't draw a convincing market pitch, you can't expect a product to be successful.

Your obi can't even market himself to the electorate and he remains widely rejected in the north .

How can such an individual provide real change ?
He cannot market himself to people, yet he scored 6.1 million votes, going by what he was awarded in 2023.

He cannot market himself to people, yet he defeated Tinubu in Lagos in 2023.

He cannot market himself to people, yet Tinubu who has been preparing for over 20 years could not muster even 10m votes nationwide, even with APC in power?

He cannot market himself to people, yet APC leadership continues to have sleepless night over his name?

Tell us what’s new with the renewed hope? You moved from the change mantra and yet living has become a nightmare to all of you.

We have seen the change brought about by the so called renew hope agenda, with Nigerians having nightmares traveling around the country.

BozzDaddy:
Are you minding such a crook. Only people that don't know what applying for UK visa means will fall for this bullshit story. Imagine how long he was already in the UK before trying to bring his legitimate wife then he forgot that he actually entered the UK claiming to have a ghost wife. Who no waka no fit ever know how far. The funny thing is that the British are well to smart to detect a foolish lie and so they will definitely give a clean judgment without error.
I can only wish him a good stay in detention at the moment and a safe flight back home on deportation.
Some Nigerians are terrible, I can never forget one of my trips from UK to Nigeria on holiday. There were some deportees in the plane that day. You need to see how they were chained and carried into the plane like Christmas goats. I was in disbelief but then I saw why they were treated like that because they were insulting the officers and promising to ensure the plane doesn't get to Nigeria. Myself and other people were scared and decided we were not comfortable flying in same plane anymore until the officers made us understand that they deal with such cases on a regular basis and so we should be calm because once the plane takes off and it's gets to about 2-3 hours out of the 6 hours flight, they will all become sober because then it will dawn on them that they are already heading back home and there is nothing they can do. Honestly speaking, just as the officers said, that's exactly what happened and that was the time (about half way the flight) they removed them from chains and they were all very sober till we landed Nigeria in peace.
The matter tire me.

Someone allowed himself to be used to commit a very grave immigration offense as that against his own self and turns around to accuse his collaborators, while deceiving himself and those who don’t have the faintest idea that immigration rules, particularly for developed countries are not so simple to break.

His attempt to bring his legitimate wife over was not well calculated and he went to court against his visa contact.

Returning him to Nigeria is a classic example of the words “bringing him down to earth”!

Thank you so much bro. You clearly understood the matter.

No, they don't.

They prefer to take your minerals for little or nothing.

In 1953, they (US & Britain) kicked out the democratically elected Iranian president and installed the Shah.

This is what precipitated in the war we just witnessed.

China has overtaken the western world, and they know it.

Despite this, the effort is to demonise China in the minds of the rest of the world.
“They prefer to take your minerals for little or nothing”.

Do they take your minerals for free? While you sleep and eulogize your horrible leaders, your horrible leaders keep giving away your mineral resources for peanuts. Why not blame your leaders?

And you do not know that China was nowhere to be found in the world of international politics and power until certain very focused leaders made the nation what it is today?

“In 1953, they (US & Britain) kicked out the democratically elected…”

If not that you have not researched history, you’d have known that the last ruler of the Qajar Dynasty, known as Ahmad Shah Qajar (1909 - 1925) and who reigned before the Shahs, was removed from power following a parliamentary vote, as the country had passed through years of instability and the citizens were dissatisfied with the leadership.

You’d have known that before the 1979 revolution that brought the evil mullahs to power, the geopolitics of the Cold War saw the USSR playing a very disruptive role in Iran, with military occupations in 1941 - 1946 during the Second World War, proxy conflicts and economic sabotages.

Perhaps you are not aware that the Soviet Union and the United Kingdom jointly invaded Iran, with the Soviets occupying the northern part of the country and refused to withdraw their forces after the war, effectively commencing the 1946 Azerbaijan crisis, as they supported separatist regimes.

While the Shahs were in power, USSR supported leftist opposition and worked hard to depose the Shah, after aligning with Iranian Marxist groups.

Why have you not held the USSR and the UK responsible for your wrong claims?

By the way, given the opportunity to relocate, would you not speedily run to the USA, as against relocating to Iran?

“This is what precipitated the war”.
Is that what you learnt?
Maybe you did not read that for the evil regime in Iran, it was religion hidden under the cloak of hunger and economic instability, to grab power. Since 1979 up till this day, can you by any means tell us the strides that the Iranians have made economically, when compared with Saudi Arabia and the UAE that even got going in 1985? Since 1979 up till today, can you by any means compare Iran with Singapore that was chased away from Malaysia in the early sixties?

“China has overtaken the western world”.

Yet the USA is termed the world’s biggest economy. China has overtaken the western world, yet Chinese citizens are rushing out of China in droves in search of their American dream.

No dey play yasef wayo.

The Americans are way ahead of the Chinese. If they were bigger, how do Nigerians keep preferring European goods over the same Chinese, that you all term as fake?
Crime › Re: Visa Agent Fraudulently Adds Woman As Visa Applicant's Wife, Charged To Court by ElevationD: 11:34am On Jun 26
“One day while I was at work, I received an email from the UK Home Office requesting that I provide official evidence demonstrating that my partner’s previous marriage had been officially dissolved by the relevant court.

“Two days later, I replied to the Home Office and informed them that I had never been married to any woman other than my wife. The visa application was refused because the Home Office believed that I already had a marriage on record in the United Kingdom.”

He further told the court that the defendant instructed him to answer “yes” when he was asked during his biometric appointment whether all supporting documents had been uploaded”.


So from all the above, the complainant clearly was aware of the issue from the onset when he consented with “yes” at the biometric appointment, showing that he definitely went to the British high commission with his fake wife to complete the visa process, as they applied as a married couple, presenting fake marriage documents.

The complainant being very naive, willing to do the agent a favour, trusting the agent and seeing that his own application would be successful, forgot that a day would come for his original wife to relocate to the UK and unite with him. Everything backfired and he lost it all.

It was a very huge blunder on his part and would be termed fraudulent. Along with his wife, he may not enter the UK anymore. Even the fraudulent wife’s visa would be revoked and she would be sent back.

Hopefully the crooked visa agent gets dealt with in the court.

I have to agree. Oh by the way, I have no issues with visa charges. I do feel though that the whole or at least part should be refunded to rejected applicants. Personally I have no further interest in visiting the USA ever again in my life save its necessary for business.
There is the principle of reciprocity in foreign relations. Nigeria has the right to reciprocate. If the Americans refund for rejected applications, Nigeria is obliged to return the favour. However, with the huge traffic of Nigerians to various embassies, how should we not expect such exploitation? Even our leaders beg and scramble to go to America. Do you not see how daily they boast about their visits? Our governors leave their states to attend meetings in London and so tay Rwanda, in the name of retreats. Are there no places in the entire length and breath of our nation for such retreats. So tay, wives of legislators and wives local government officials. Is it not pure madness? How can our nation not be so abused?

We must wake up and start holding our leaders accountable. It’s not the issue of the USA. Such visa charges are also made to other countries of the same status as Nigerian.

And by the way, such high visa charges are made to checkmate unserious applicants. Nigeria can reciprocate the move. Visa fees serve as administrative costs and help to run the offices. All countries charge visa fees.
