TravelRe: Lagos To Abuja Flight Ticket Should Cost ₦250k – Airline Operators by emmaodet: 4:19pm On Aug 24, 2023
mrvitalis:
I honestly don't get why u can get flight from London to Paris for under £50 ... There are flights under £20

Their pilots earn more, their workers generally earn more than Nigerian aviation workers by a factor of over 7

Aviation fuel is way cheaper in Nigeria

So why exactly is flight far more expensive in Nigeria

I honestly can't get it honestly
Exactly Mr Vitalis.
When international flight between UK and France cost about 20 pounds despite their pilots earning farm more than ours yet local flights here cost a neck.
I guess it is high tariffs from government and all these middle men because there is no point for airline operators to be buying aviation fuel from markers. They need to remove their hands
PoliticsRe: Nigeria To Tap $37 Billion Market As Firm Confirms Lithium Deposits by emmaodet: 10:18am On Aug 24, 2023
Rostikol:
This is the main difference between Nigeria and some of these African countries like Niger and co.

Nigeria has the capacity to leverage these resources IN-HOUSE.

Process them and build anything we want.

I'm very glad Nigerian and African leaders have said that this LITHIUM of a thing will not be like previous raw materials that were just shipped out raw for a pittance.

That era is gone and gone for good.

The other day, Ugandan President Museveni said that some European investors had visited him in his office, and said they wanted to mine Ugandan lithium.

He asked them why.

They said because they wanted to use it to build nuclear power plants, to increase their power generation.

He asked them if they'd ever seen the Access to Electricity statistics for Uganda, vis-a-vis their country.

They said no.

He said ok, that they should go and read it, and get back to him, so that they could discuss how they could partner to use the lithium to increase power generation in UGANDA FIRST, before he can allow them to buy any extra they have left.

He said they left and never returned.

These people?

If you don't use your sense with them, they will finish you.
Exactly bro. Exactly

The car you used to drive past the embassy how much was it 3 years ago compared to now? grin

The fuel you bought how much did it cost in December? grin

The reason people queue up to leave is because Nigeria has too many daft people like you wasting oxygen by asking silly questions that a toddler can understand.

Driving past the Canadian embassy every morning on freedom way, you will ask yourself, all these people queuing each day to japa, what exactly are they going there for?

How can you just wake up and decide to run away from your own country, when most of them has good-paying jobs and businesses?

The desperation is really disturbing
Disturbing?? That is an understatement

Most of the people I move with that are far doing better than me, good sweet clean cars, nice buildings with good business from multiple sources just pack up and ran away to UK. E just be like juju.
Honestly, if I say that I am not scared, I will be deceiving myself because why will someone doing better than me , people who have trucks, filling stations, people who can afford and still buying properties of 20m per plot and within 6 to 8 months build a massive house on it.
No be mould block today, buy sand tomorrow type of people struggling. Men with multiple girlfriends they maintain and blow around 200k in clubs when we go and not just occasionally but regularly.
Boom!!!! Bros done sell everything relocate with his family.
Se efun ni abi edi? Na jazz abi na juju?
Reason why I started questioning myself that if these guys loaded to the teeth are running, that means me wey no dey run something is wrong abi how will you just be treaking and then see people in your street running, chairman of your street running, even your church pastor running and you no run? Even if you don't know what is chasing them

Typical example of how powerful purchasing power is in price models for goods and services.

If you like, increase the prices of your commodities, saying price of PMS don increase...you will reach a level no one will buy...not because they don't need what you are selling...but because, they don't have that power to buy what you are selling.
In economics, it is called Alternative Forgone

A situation whereby people shy away from the main product and start demanding for the close substitute.
There is a price garri will get to, people will start shying away from it and won't see any problem in eating Amala, tuwo, fufu, semo.
Foreign rice becomes so expensive people start embracing local rice or beans or bread or yam or garri.
I remember when price of foreign vegetable oil and locally produced became so high, people started embracing my unbranded oil that I was struggling to sell on a good day due to lower price compared to the former
FamilyRe: Why I Dumped Farida Sobowale After ‘n100m Wedding’ – Estranged Husband, Odulaja by emmaodet: 2:49pm On Aug 23, 2023
pocohantas:
The guy sure has his reasons.
But it doesn't change the fact that he isn't a responsible fellow, just like Farida. I think this is her 3rd husband or so. She was warned but she kept attacking everyone.

How do you marry your bestie's ex?
Your bestie sef has been in and out of various marriages. Dated popular FUJI musicians.

All these Lagos socialites have a poor taste in men. That is why fine London old boys association dey use their eyes see shege. This includes the actresses. Once they have money, it is to fix gold tooth and be going from one party to another with expensive aso ebi. Recycling the same men like Pasuma and MC Oluomo. Fighting over these men on Instagram and at parties.

Imagine the late Alaafin's queen is dating Portable. A queen?? God abeg!

If at this age you don't know how to get and keep a man, it is gone. A Nigerian man that knows his onions doesn't need your travel history. Except na gigolo you dey with.



The Farida lady is courteous to customers though. Been to her shop on Akerele for pedicure. Very affordable and stellar service.

TravelRe: 6 Strong Reasons Why Nigerians In The UK Are So 'stingy' by emmaodet: 7:15pm On Aug 22, 2023
uche87:
(6) People are broke:
[b]If poverty in the world is being measured by raw cash and not access to food, the UK might be one of the poorest countries in Europe. [/b]Most people have to overwork, to the detriment of their health to make extra bucks. This is why some locals see the paper chase as a rat race and they prefer to stay unemployed and focus on benefits from the government. Furthermore, the housing crisis in the UK is real. As a family man, 70% of your monthly earnings easily go into accommodation costs. This makes life mentally stressful and frustrating.
Anyone looking from the outside is easily deceived by the glossy pictures, nice clothes, and lovely locations they see on social media. This set of people constitutes the 'God When Squad' - a popular faction in the Nigerian social media space.

See how dirty and impoverished Africa is.
*Spits*

Useless leaders who tuck away their own families, draw out their own escape plans for a asylum with a friendly country. Plane on standby while the masses fight to death for them.
The ONLY time government palliatives touches the grassroot is when they are sharing guns and bullet to defend their useless countries.
Let it be food, money or fertilizers then it will disappear. You will only read on news they shared so so and so on news but when it comes to defending their looting empire, all of a sudden, they are so organized to create an enlisting camp for the poor to join the soldiers, guns and bullets quickly gets to every individual that enlisted, camps are built and people served foods to eat and go fight in the war front.
All of a sudden they are so organized to have enough fuel to fuel the cars, feed the people, house the people to fight and defend their looting empire but when it comes to empowerment, school sponsorship, covid 19 palliatives, fertilizers and CBN loans and grants for farmers and SME, all of a sudden, nothing works.

Spits again

The majority is ALWAY wrong.


99.9% of people know nothing about how money works that's why they pray to get money instead to attract money.

Think equity (skills) not income (payment for time)

Nobody really care ( except your mum which is even a debate)

Learn the basic of all business: give people what they want ( the greatest salesmen like Jesus Christ Mohamed Hitler all use it.

Sell heaters to Eskimo not ice, don't sell sands to pharaoh's= give people what they want if you want to make money in this life.

Not what you think they want

Never marry a woman you love

Mind your fucking business if you play with monkey's your life become a fucking circus


Try not to impress anyone because nobody really cares.


Take good care of yourself and your mental health no carry wetin no concern you for head.

It is a crime to be poor in Nigeria sha.

They sent N2,000,000 to your senators' accounts without drama or noise. In fact, the announcement was a mistake as these things are done codedly.

E reach the turn of the masses, they sent grains over all the way from Abuja because, clearly, the looters must loot along the line. The senators know how to curb corruption when it comes to their own sharing formula. grin

5bn worth of grains to a state of 5 million people = 1k per head.

Rather than send 1k alert to everybody, they sent a quarter bag of rice to a ward (of at least 2,000 people). grin grin

A Russian I worked with of recent said when the Ukraine Russian war started last year, it all started small with light weapons but as the day progresses now, more and more dangerous and extremely dangerous weapons are been brought to the war front and things are really going out of hand

My only fear is that any war between these powers should not escalate to nuclear exchange, then it becomes a point of no return. The world as we know it will cease to exist.

But if it's just conventional weapons, then there is nothing to worry about. Guam is a sitting duck no matter how much grammar they speak about making it the most defended place on the planet.

Same patriot system they will use to defend Guam is exactly what Russia destroyed in Ukraine like it's nothing. You have to know that propaganda is the norm for the US.

China knows about Guam, and all the surrounding mini island there. They already have plans for it if a war ever breaks out. And also, Guam is not even a big fish, the real target will be US mainland.

This won't be a war where the US will have a monopoly of choosing the battleground, but a war where both powers can choose where they want to fight. This is not a lion versus antelope fight, but a lion versus lion.

As far as China is concern, the battle ground will be in mainland US. They will definitely be satisfied with the outcome of Americans feeling the agony of war, as they have done to other places.

The Chinese have hypersonic missles rhat can reach any corners of the planet, with a war chest that can out produced the West by at least 10 to 1 times. We are referring to the country that can singlehandedly manufacture what most of the world uses.

Imagine that. If China stop exporting, the global economy will crash. You can best believe they will out produced everyone in everything from tanks to missles,bomb, everything, if a war ever break out.
https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.reuters.com/world/us-japan-develop-hypersonic-missile-interceptor-yomiuri-2023-08-13/&ved=2ahUKEwjouJL5iemAAxVWgv0HHSFzAIMQFnoECAwQAQ&usg=AOvVaw1BNTW8iXUr4dSdzHMHTGFC

The US and Japan are planning to build hypersonic missile interceptor.
Again, so as to contain China and Russia to their own region hole US is safe from any attack.
The US is ready to go all out and fight dirty to retain the present system that benefits them alone and will do anything possible to fight and bring down any competition on the way.
Funny enough, most people who are supporting US in retaining the present system see everything wrong in Nigeria running a one party system of APC where all other parties like PDP and LP are subdued and turned to toothless dog.
A one party system turns the citizens and on the global scale weaker countries to Slaves. Simple as that.
There is no one to check the excesses of the ruling party or leading country in the case of US. That is disaster waiting.
Also, US would have gone all out to destroy Russia long time ago but what held them back is the Russian nuclear missile submarine called Poseidon and Belgorod.
They are invisible to radar thereby throwing the US off guard and putting them on edges.
The US fears an attack on Russia will make Poseidon strike US with no time to intervene.
During the cold war era, the US beat the Russians to the air power.
The US feared the Russians can strike them with missiles thereby developed satellites to detect early shots of missiles, track it and detect it's course, speed and direction and thereby trigger a and intercepting missile from a land station to neutralize it but the advent of Poseidon was a game changer.
It is hard installing a sonar (water radar) that can detect early warning for underwater missiles shot unlike open air satellites and this singular factor has kept the US in check
