Nairaland / General / Re: Inflation: Which Item's Price Surprises You? by emmyN(m): 6:00pm On Nov 13, 2023
None. Buhari shocked me enough to put on my absorbers in preparation for the Balablu disaster. He hasn't disappointed so far.

Education / Re: Herbert Wigwe To Build $500M University In Nigeria by emmyN(m): 5:53pm On Nov 13, 2023
seborrhic:

Is it today you knew Nigerians like floating superfluous figures to feel big and important?
In Nigeria a goverment official will tell you we are a country of 300m people and that in next 5 years the economy will be bigger than that of China and US combined.
Where is Wigwe going to source for $500m (₦500b)within 5 years or people think he would conjure up that amount from his pocket?

Loans. According to a recent report, one of the top bank CEOs was allegedly found paying lower than normal interest rate on a loan he took from the bank. Dealings like these are how the rich keep their wealth and come back at you with motivation to "work hard". cheesy
Foreign Affairs / Re: IDF Distributes Leaflets In Southern Lebanon Calling On Residents To Move North by emmyN(m): 9:59pm On Nov 12, 2023
Metaverse:
The cost for such actions against Lebanon will be very severe for Israel. The arrogance of those Israeli decision maker will cost them very highly and they will be held accountable by the people. What they've done against humanity in Gaza is absolutely unforgivable.

It's an abomination against humanity

It will never be forgotten and they will never be forgiven.

Okay. What do you think should have been an appropriate response after Hamas invaded their country, slaughtered 1200, and kidnapped 200 others all in one night?

jaszplus12:

The art of teaching driving is no longer as it used to be
Now anyone jumps into the driving seat takes off and when night falls he uses the lights that are bright enough to see not knowing that there are ethics to the use of lights!
Even driving behind another person you should dip your lights until you over take and is driving on a freeway without traffic coming on the other side! Once another car is approaching the ethic is to again dip your lights until he passes!
Many drive with the full lights to oppress the opposite driver, others don't even know why it's there!
Unless the ethos are brought back the trend will surely continue!

Crime / Re: Toluige Olokoobi Babalola's Husband Was Met On Top Of Her Body by emmyN(m): 11:16pm On Nov 11, 2023
dominique:
For the sake of the kids, I hope the man is innocent

Even without carrying out an thorough autopsy, the police can examine the body carefully to confirm if she truly died from ligature injuries. If you watch true crime series on tv and youtube, you'd understand how common cases like these are. I've watched countless cases that happened in US, maybe it's because they carry out thorough investigations and leave no stone unturned. There was one I watched where a woman poisoned her husband with fetanyl overdose and called the cops when she woke up the next morning and found him unresponsive. She even wrote a book about how she was coping as a widow with small kids and was interviewed by their local TV station. What she doesn't know are the police were carrying their discreet investigation because fetanyl is a highly controlled drug and they have to investigate where he got it from without a prescription for . They went through the man's internet history, not a trace of anything related to fetanyl or any drug. They went through the woman's history, what did they see? Different searches on how to buy fetanyl without being traced. Imagine if the police had concluded that it was because the wife called them to come and check on her husband, that's how she would have conveniently gotten away with murder.

Politics / Re: All Imo Flights Blacklisted Nationwide Over Attack On NLC President by emmyN(m): 10:06am On Nov 09, 2023
festacman:
Joe Ajaero took special interest in Imo State because it is his state. He wanted the labour issues in his home state to be resolved being the NLC president. The timing was to utilize the election to force Gov. Uzodimma's hand. He did nothing wrong to deserve the brutalization.

The fact is politicians want NLC to be emasculated but it is up to NLC members to bury their inhouse differences and fight to retain their relevance and power as the mouthpiece of Nigerian workers and common people.

However, NLC should do well also to distance itself from Labour Party. It is blurring things at the moment.




Why should they distance themselves from their own party?

You see eeh whenever emefiele will be released he'll receive a hero's welcome from his people... Take it or leave it.

This is the only man who came closest of stopping Tinubu to emerge.

Now Tinubu's emergence has brought uncountable sufferings, hardship and suicide in the land.

Though emefiele policies were harsh per se but he'll be remembered for almost stopping calamity to befall us.

Which has finally befallen us

Emefiele was never Nigeria's president. Those were Buhari's policies!
Foreign Affairs / Re: G-7 Countries Meet In Japan, Announce Support For Israel, To Pause Humanitarian by emmyN(m): 2:26am On Nov 09, 2023
The headline of this post is misleading. Humanitarian pause does not mean aid withdrawal. It means allowing a window of opportunity where military action is suspended briefly so aids can come in.

mrLhanray:
I remember during the three weeks orientation camp in Paiko, Niger several years ago. One man who addressed us said something similar.
That they produce electricity for the whole country, but the don't act entitled like those in South South that produces crude oil.
There are several ways to generate electricity, This Governor can't use this as bargaining chips. If you switch off Kainji and shiroro dams, other states especially southern state will seek other means to generate electricity. Dams can be constructed too

Not at all, they lied to you. They only produce 20% or more of power supplied to Nigeria. Niger Delta generates the other 70%.
Politics / Re: Niger State Demands 13% Derivation From Oil Revenue; Threatens To Shut Kanji Dam by emmyN(m): 10:49pm On Nov 07, 2023
This one must be a clown. Only 27% of power in Nigeria is generated through hydroelectricity of which their dam is a part. The other over 70% is generated through gas sourced from the Niger Delta.

You didn't state it that Jonathan rejected the proposal. You ended it with, "the government was roundly criticised". One would think they were the ones championing the idea and had to backtrack when the media raised a ruckus. Your article was either deliberately misleading or dwelled on half-truths.

To be candid, Sanwo-Olu tried with that reduction. And many people do not see it as a big deal. Just imagine i journeyed from abule egba to ikorodu on BRT with less than #500 a trip that cost me #1700 on the yellow busses.
Kudos to Lagos state government. This is the real palliative that gets to people not those nonsense rice being shared.

What has changed since the time when the fare was subsidized and now? Things have gone worse and purchasing power has plunged even further. Yet you think they "tried" now that they are taking it off and abandoning people to more suffering! Una like suffer too much sad.

Of course you will never accept it.
