Lol

Instead of protesting, go learn gardening and start. This hardship won't stop soon. Argentina is still facing it too and it's getting harder for them. A crisis like this is a cancer. The antidote is painful. The best way is to prevent it, and since we are careless and we support thieves who stole our money when elected because they are from our towns, we will face the consequences.

Buy a piece of land in outskirts, fence it, install a borehole, and start cultivating perennials. You can produce grass-fed meat, eggs and milk also.

Good luck!

Lol

Instead of Umahi to be truthful that they have sibsidized cement. Lol. How can they peg it to a price when dollara is flying daily. Lol. Na wa ooo.

Cements producers are the new cabals in town. Lol

They remove fuel subsidies to start subsidizing cement. Lol. Tunubunomics..hahahahah! I don't know how these manufacturers will agree to this if they aren't subsidized one way or the other. Lol.

Interesting!

46 died in two universities or two zones..lol. We are all facing hardship. The truth is I don't pity Nigerian lecturers because they are one of the least performing groups of homo sapiens in Naija. Yet, they want to be seen as the best who must be treated well.

If I was the president, I wouldn't pay them "shi shi". I would invest that money in farming. I just dislike them with passion.

I will keep writing this in my posts: if you want to survive this hardship: go buy a piece of land, fence it, and install a borehole. You will start with cultivating perennial vegetables your family will eat. Then, cultivate yams, sweet potatoes and other veggies easy to grow. You can add easy fruits to cultivate to earn income.

If you have extra cash, you can employ someone who can take care of grass-fed livestock. You don't need to do cattle or even huge animals. You can do small ones and maintain yourself in this economy.

He inherited a terrible economy because Buhari messed it up; however, he cannot turn things around. Tinubu is a corrupt man who cannot and will not tackle what is killing Nigeria. The earlier the better we face this.

This is good. Honestly, Nigeria needs to upgrade its international airport standard. I feel so sad whenever I travel in or out. This is good.

EtinosaDLaw:
Tinubu the first-class accounting graduate who once asked Nigerians "shey na statistics we go chop?" will handle economy, while Shettima who once harboured a Boko Haram executioner in his home will handle security. How market now??

Quite frankly, I don't blame Tinubu. The RED FLAGS were there, but some persons voted for him because of their hate for the igbos. He knows that Nigeria houses the largest cluster of dumbfucks in the world, so how did yall expect him to even attempt to give a shit about yall if yall don't give a shit about yourselves enough to shun tribalism?

I mean, the man was literally licking a microphone when he was asked to "test" his microphone during the electioneering campaigns. Don't take my word for it, go to YouTube and search for the video. He was stumbling and falling, making unintelligible statements, depending on teleprompters to make speeches, giving completely unrelated answers to questions he asked, being held like a child during rallies so he does not fall, avoiding debates etc.. etc... etc... yet some people defended him by saying that all they need is his brain, when clearly the man's brain (if he has one) is evidently fried.

Una go learn the way, nor worry.

The truth is that you also don't get what you want. If na Obi you think we should vote for, it is better to suffer with Tinubu, and Atiku is the worst. No dey mention Obi.

If you are just seeing that Nigeria is in trouble, you also have a fundamental problem. I knew Nigeria was in a mess when I saw the 3 candidates. None was ok. But if you see one of them ok, Nigeria is in a real mess.

That woman muat be bold. She divorced the oersob who saved her life. Lol. As in .....wow!

Lol. Professors aren't smiling too. It can't be easy for anyone depending on the Nigerian economy.

Tap into the world economy if you want to not only survive but thrive during this period. If you don't habe the brain to tap into this first option, go buy land, put borehole there, build a small building, put solar panels, and start producing fresh food. You will cash out big time.

I am laughing hard at comments on the front page like: "rapid progress for me IJN", bla bla bla speedy success, and blu bla ble bla bla. First, talk about the precursor for rapid success. Are you doing it? Do you even know what it is? It is called adequate preparation. Even amid tribulation, don't neglect training. Train hard now even if it is not showing. When that success comes, people will say it is rapid, but were they there where your eyes dey see shege on your training ground?

Now is the time to even train harder. CR7 is a classic example of the older the wine, the better the taste. Train hard to maintain stardom because "attaining stardom is easier than maintaining it".

Good luck to everyone!

I support Igbo with this decision. Now they are talking. But my suggestion is that their governors should quickly go into farming so that when the North wan pepper them like during the Biafra war, they can stand it. Igbo should disown any Judas the Fulani, Yoruba, and Wike might use.

If Igbo can follow this through, they have my respect. Yes, this is the way forward.

Are Igbo neglected? Yes. Are they discriminated against? Yes. But hey! They caused it and they are reaping the fruits of the seeds they sowed in the 60's. I hope they can correct their mistakes now.

If Igbo can get it right, believe me, they will be the most prosperous region in Nigeria. Their eyes don see shege. Dem sef stubborn. But hmmmm....can they really get it right?

It is good to not make comments on subjects one is not educated in or familiarised with. The front page comments and even other subsequent pages are rubbish. How is Soludo doing with Anambra? The Buhari administration has destroyed everything. Corruption and tribalism have killed everything.

If I was Cardoso, I would resign because corruption is still dealing with Nigeria. All arms of government are corrupt.

All these politicians stealing today will be pauper tomorrow when the real effect when the economy is paralysed.

Cardoso is extremely intelligent in the league of Soludo. Sanusi is not as good as these two, just that he came immediately after Soludo had arranged well our banking system.

Bola Tinubu himself is not helping matters because he is Mr Corruption himself.

The best way to survive in a nation with high inflation and low-performing currency like Nigeria & Argentina while living in them is to tap into the world economy. You can do this by learning to trade. Forex, futures, stocks, bonds, cryptocurrencies, derivs, indices, cfd, commodities, etc.

One common reason nations face what we are presently facing is high dependence on importation and no or extremely low production going on in the nation. And the way out is to start production. If Nigeria is not going to produce anything, and you want to survive this period, start producing as an individual because jobs will be scarce. What do people care about in such a period? To get rid of hunger. Therefore, go buy a piece of land (1 plot to hundreds), install a borehole(s), erect a small building there, and start producing fresh food. Learn organic gardening. You will cash out big time.

Good luck to everyone.

Most technicians do not configure solar systems well for users because they know that if they tell them the truth, they will run away. Most systems out there are overloaded and within 3 months, the inverter or battery is down. And people say that it is not worth it. Of course, illiteracy is what killed the user and dishonesty on the part of the installer is bad.

Try to do research and configure it yourself. If not, you will not enjoy it.

Good luck to everyone.

Nigerian churches are now business centres. If teachers like Bro Gbile Akanni or Apostle Joshua Selma are close to you, run there. You will be fed with the raw, undiluted word of God. All other bishops, prophets, pastors, and evangelists are all disappointments to the body of Christ. Recently, Pastor Adeboye has been making mistakes. Only his old age is the reason I won't say any negative about him. But someone should tell that baba to keep off politics. As for that one in Otta, I don't have any regard for him since the day Clefor Dollar came to his church and started asking his members to yell "Dollars follow me". That was around 2002 or so. Since that day, I marked that bishop. So, I was not surprised when he was caught in the act of "yes daddy" with Obi Pandora.

IAmHim1:
tribalism is a petty move and i called you out. but heyy, if u dont wanna help me understand, its fine

Get the crap outta my face and my thread. Go learn home training first. You and your Peter Obi should go to places. And I repeat it to your face....go and sort your issue with the North for killing Ahmedu Bello in the sixties when Zik was the president cos you realised the prime minister was more powerful later. Also, go and face IBB who separated the whole of SS from you and therefore you lost all SS. Also, face Awolowo who smashed your failed Ojukwu by telling the inexperienced Gowon to cut off food supply to your place during the civil war...and you lost within 6 months after the border to Cameroon was also blocked. These are the people who messed you up cos of your weaknesses.

Don't blame me for Israel throwing out your case that you are Jews.

My advice again...Nigeria does not fit you. Get out of Nigeria peacefully. Stop wanting Aso Rock 6 months before elections and working against Nigeria as soon as you lose. Make peace with yourself that your tribe ibo will not get to Aso Rock as long as the northern empire has a large population. You have lost the whole of SS and SW cannot and will never partner with you.

These are the facts on the ground and my analysis. If you expect me to say what is false cos I do not support your tribe you are gonna wait till eternity.

Finally, do not bring your tribal war near me. I analyse and give constructive comments. If the truth is not accepted by you....it is ok. Leave my thread and posts alone. NL is a free place where you can find those who align with your vision.

Again, I ask...who is the oxymoron? You want an oxymoron to help you. Are you ok? To me, it seems it is a cultural thing to act such and think you can still get what you want anytime again. Just the way your tribe is acting in Nigeria. You insult one, and then still expect the tribes you keep insulting to support you. Lol. You haven't learned. Don't worry...you will learn when it is late. That same treatment SS learned from Yoruba is what you will keep getting. So...don't learn...keep using force, threats and mischievous ways of life.

RIP to the dead.

Concerning the comments on Obi....he is also a thief. Atiku also is. Let us force INEC to implement direct transmission of votes from the polling booths to the INEC server. And let us force them to use a dedicated server and powerful satellite internet connections in all locations.

Better people will come on board. Then you will pity yourself forever supporting any of these three thieves. Lol.

Agricultural states are not on the list. The whole of the core north is missing. No one will complain if food is available.

If you love yourself, go buy a piece of land now, fence it, and install a borehole there. The days you will be forced to practise farming you are running away from is close by.

Israel will capture the whole of Gaza, and there is nothing anyone can do about it. They are going to annex it. If I was Israel, I would do the same. Gaza is a strategic location because of its economic value. In the next 20 years, the whole of Gaza will be included in Israel's map. So, all Arabs and Muslims should know this and have peace.

This war is none of my business. I care less if Israel wiped them off the face of the earth, or if Hamas bombed the whole of Israel. None of my business, and I am not concerned at all.

Nigeria is my nation and we have our challenges. Neither Palestine nor Israel ever show concern concerning our challenges here. Just funny how Nigerians are taking sides. Lol

IAmHim1:
oxymoron is an oxymoron itself. you cant be smart and be tribalistic at the same time epainos. one has to give way

Lol. You insulted your father here (not me).

IAmHim1:
supp epainos


the financial market(bonds, stocks, synthetic deriv, futures, crypto...) seems to be doing one of four things

consolodating
expanding
reversing or
retracing

AND THE MARKET CANNOT DO TWO PARAMETERS AT THE SAME TIME
so d labyrinth becomes a straight line

how do we know how to expect the market parameters and how do we know the conditions at which they form

And you returned to ask who you called an oxymoron. Who is the oxymoron? You need help. I thought you had figured out the whole answer the way you were running your mouth and fingers here. You kids never learn. You won't be ever profitable with your attitude...success in other areas of life will be scarce in your life if you don't change.

Humility and a teachable heart win every time.

Melagros:
COMRADES, in one sentence. Can tinubu arrest Babangida?

Dey play. You don't know Tinubu. He is so bold. Who else has ever attempted to move departments from any federal govt department to Lagos?

IBB will send delegates to him, and he will tell him to stop the crisis in the north. Simple.

Tinubu will arrest anybody. Do you think he is Peter Obi or Atiku? Person wey fought OBJ and won even as a governor. That na is not ordinary. I am sure he is a high ranking officer in their whatever society.

Have you ever heard Wole Soyinka criticize him? Think! Wole that is oga in their society or whatever...dont let me say another thing.

Hhahhah!

Looks like Tinubu has got info that IBB is one of the guys fueling crisis in the north against this government. It is time to treat him well.

Love800:
Okay.

So dat means floating of the naira is a nice option but the process is hijacked and not properly managed well. Am i correct?

Yes. Normally, govt should eradicate BDC. Those guys are the ones operating the black market and they work with banks. Govt is not serious. When they are, they will make commercial banks and some big players the only entity to exchange dollars...not those principalities called "bureau de change".

The real corruption is in banks. If banks can make maira scarce by not loading their ATMs aagainand using POS via money exchangers in the streets, then, they can do it to dollars too.

Govt knows what to do, but is not ready.

Just imagine the amount of money Wigwe the guy who died in a chopper crash accumulated. Look at his mansion. Lol. Cecilia Ibru did so many bad things in her bank in those days.
Erastus Agbola too destroyed so much. These bankers and major players like ex-Gen Danjuma, Dangote, Otedola, Adenuja, and many other billionaires are the reasons we are suffering. Na corruption.

They know what to do, but won't do it.

Naira is gonna crash further. And my prediction is that Bola Tinubu will be booted out of that seat soon. He will soon be disgraced if he doesn't sit tight.

Love800:
Hello.
I still remember dis monicker. I know u have intelligent brains.

Can u tell me the advantages and disadvantages of floating of naira in a simple layman's language that i can understand?

There are two main ways the exchange rate is determined:

1. CBN intervention of currency:
CBN pegs it at a static rate officially for govt contracts, and all forms of buying and selling. The rate was actually around N800 before, but CBN intervened and made it around N550. It is a form of subsidy. Meaning debt. This was why immediately after Bola Tinubu implemented the policy and the naira went up above N1,000, Cardosa (CBN governor) raised an alarm that some people were manipulating it. How? Through the second option below.

2. Floating:
CBN does nothing. All participants decide the price. Who are the participants? They are: BDC license owners, banks, insurance firms, importers, exporters, and the black market.

Banks to whom CBN gives dollars are deliberately not releasing them so that they can be scarce. And the only place to get it is from the black market. So, they move the price up. If dollars are available, no one will be forced to go to only the black market. Banks were supposed to be supplying customers directly too, but they aren't. They supply only the black market.

Instead of them to ban production of food with chemicals and ban processed sugar, they want to produce a vaccine for cancer.

ckc:
Based on the catastrophe this floating of naira of a thing by Tinubu is causing to the economy, can anyone please educate me on the ONE benefit of this policy. I want to learn.

The truth is that the economy was already dead before the policy was implemented. Subsidies keep making it worse and covering up. Someone must pay for it.

If we don't pay for what those people who live from Awolowo, Zik, and Bello's ....OBJ, Jonathan, Yaradua, etc did...and all the 70 years plus have caused Nigeria, our children will pay 10 times more. So, we should suffer it now, face Tinubu and compel whoever is coming on board in 2027 to keep providing solutions.

What everyone wants is a subsidy... who is paying for it later? Our innocent kids. So, let us pay for it. We are innocent too, but it is well.

When you sell yourself, you become very common, and you lose your respect drastically. The Nigerian judiciary has not seen the height of the embarrassment they will get. Las las, FG will look for 5 of them who will take bribes and cause confusion in their camp.

UK-based lawyers will start taking a bigger share of the revenues for lawyers. Most big companies will start employing Nigerian UK-based lawyers as their company secretaries. Lol. Dangote, Ote$, Adenuga, etc will soon dump the as.ses of Nigerian-based lawyers. Dem never start....even political cases where they always cash out will be given more to UK-based lawyers...

Lawyers will permanently be omoniles' solution. Nothing else dem go fit do again. They will turn to toughs who drag land and properties with omonile.

BBIA:
Seems me seconding your point turned me to an enemy.

didn’t you see through the joke?

I’ll pass.

Yes, I thought you were joking. Until I read this:

There is no patch for human stupidity

So, what does the above mean? See...if you think you are smart and can "jab" everyone stylishly here...you will only wound yourself. No one is perfect...but if you think you are smart enough to laugh at all sides of everything...try it with those low-IQ people... take a look at my moniker again....those who sabi Quantum physics only by mouth cannot mess around with me... So, take your time. Don't come here and pretend to be smart. Stay on one side and if you cannot, scram.

FRANCISTOWN:
Babanifa (Baba Onifa) is the same as Babalawo in the IFA religion. But they are scarcely called Babanifa. The most popular term is Babalawo .

Babalawo means. Someone who has been thru the ceremony of an initiation into IFA religion, who has learnt and studied the IFA religion. And he practices it and most importantly makes consultations for people)

Babalawo: A Father in the cult of initiates. (They believe once you are initiated, you are no longer a boy but a father, the apprentices are called ọmọ ifá or omo awo or kekere awo)

Though Babalawo and Babanifa can be used interchangeably. But Babanifa is mostly used for the Babalawos that don't make consultations for people, though they worship IFA but they don't make consultations and they often visit babalawos for their consultations.

Every one of you has just verified my points. Lol. A babalawo must know at least 4 poems for each of the 256 odus. Am I right or wrong?

So, I am asking you also....why are you still keeping secrets? So, you wan whine me that those 80, 90 years old men can recite correctly?

Do you want to say that babalawos are not manipulators? We can check the Bible which is the standard of Christianity, why can't we check Odu Ifa? Lol. I repeat...Babalawo kept people in the dark....tormented them, stole their properties...asked for what eshu did not ask for. They manipulated everything and the people could not check. Lol. People wanted freedom. So, when Jesus' followers arrived....everyone japa to his side. That's why they sing...Jesus does not collect kolanuts and sacrifices. Lol.

Why are your babalawos desperate saying the Christians, Moslims and they serve the same God? Cos they are losers.

If they want to win, let them declassify Odu Ifa. These rubbish commentaries online are nonsense. Like say, I should be reading fake pastors' commentaries on Bible instead of reading the real Bible. Read manipulators' commentaries.

I repeat, I am not able to say whether your olodumare is fake or not. But if dem your agba babalawo is saying that you guys serve my God, we demand you allow us to check na. Our Bible is out there in the plain...why can't you put yours out there too?

Please, watch the following YouTube and listen to this man. We all know him. He is popular...and he is a manipulator. Here it is:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uizXHX-tRhA&list=PLuCoG7L7T66DJ_F9w3GMEJvmUwCNFtd2u&index=2&pp=iAQB

Here is another one:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqTwCs79AMM&list=PLuCoG7L7T66DJ_F9w3GMEJvmUwCNFtd2u&index=3&pp=iAQB
This man is trying to popularize this scam again. Who demonized ifa religion? Babalawo did. Se if you get a free option rather than a manipulator who keeps demanding extremely expensive sacrifices, will you not japa? Many of those babalawos in those days, enslaved people. Do you want to deny it? Or should we go down the lane again?

Babalawo fought Christianity. They called our God a strange one. But they lost because they are just manipulators. Now they want to penetrate again. Lol. E no go work sir.

If you want us to believe you, go and declassify Odu Ifa. If you cannot, then, crap out. No one will ever follow a secret god.

Science is plain too. It is still ok to believe in science than believe in babalawo. So...forget it. You are wasting your time. And I am telling you...not until you declassify Ifa will people take you seriously.

Stop ridiculing yourselves on NL. With the stage we are in tech, you are just deceiving yourselves. Make me...believe one 90-year-old recitation. A brain that has been damaged. How possible can an 80-year-old man recite accurately? Una no serious at all.

BBIA:

The path to stu. pidity is following pastors blindly when the Bible (Christians' manual) is around, and the way to God is direct. Not through a pastor or a prophet anymore according to the Bible. But so many people are lazy. This is what I have sided with on this thread.

However, both you and the low-IQ person up there want to make me go dirty and start fighting on a subject that is so irritating to me. I don't have business with pastorpreneurs. According to my Bible that is out there, it says...many false prophets will arise. And they are here. So, if you think I will change the topic and start defending pastors, you have lost it cos I won't go that path with you. You will find your NL mate who is ready to defend pastors. The Bible is the standard I am defending here, and not any pastor.

I defend the Bible and not any pastors. So, open your brain and let it sink into it. If you want to insult pastors, go ahead. Not my business. Are there so many thieves among them? Yes. But our Bible did not tell us to follow pastors. Anyone who follows them is on his own.

I checked well to know why you still try to bring about the pastors' debate which is irrelevant here and I realised that you did not understand the meaning of the word "declassify". Please, pick your dictionary....check it. Then, it may make sense to you. And then perhaps you will understand the direction of the discussion here

Sorry bro. Na only simple English confused you .... and you embarrass yourself and still talk out of point here. Try to post with the mind that people read these posts. Cos...na embarrassment to still try to bring pastors' issue here because the subject here is not about fraudulemt pastors...and even I said it earlier...there are many false pastors. Our Bible supports it too. So, dont you understand simple logic?


After you get the meaning of that word, then, if you have any point to back up or tackle my point, feel free to make your comment. If you still return to talk about pastors again, then, you definitely will not understand the logic of the argument, and I am sorry....I won't stoop so low to exchange banters on pastors and prophets going about and defrauding people. It means that you just cannot fit into the category of those I can discuss with.

Best of luck!

BBIA:

If my grammar is too much for you, it means you don't fit here. You may need to find a thread that those discussing there have the same IQ as you. I think an elementary 6 pupil can comprehend what I wrote. If you see it as plenty of grammar, please, look for threads with your IQ and engage them there.

God bless you.

MaxInDHouse
I suggest you leave that low-IQ person alone. I have already handled her. I think her seniors pushed her to this thread to sample things.

Just leave that low-IQ person alone. Let her seniors come around. She is too low to have a meaningful discussion with.

She registered that moniker today (less than 1-day old moniker) to insult. I doubt the moniker is a female also. She might be one of those I had handled previously. Scammers' behaviour . I don't know what she is hiding. Not even bold to the extent of quickly registering a new moniker to do the dirty job. Check it. The moniker was registered some minutes ago. Yet, she put low IQ content here. Mehn!

Nairaland needs to upgrade itself and stop allowing mischievous people to clamp down on the rights of other members of this forum.

Is Wole Soyinka a babalawo? Do you have a mind to even process information and argue logically? Has Wole Soyinka asked anyone to bring sacrifices to him to offer to the gods? Did you not read where I mentioned Old Testament people in the Bible cast lots too? And then, I said the spirit of God directs it?

This person has a low IQ. Walahi.

You are still nobody in this thread cos you came around to start insulting everyone here.

I am not here to insult "Olodumare" as it is called. I am not here to insult the Ifa Corpus itself. I am here to tackle babalawos.

Listen again to me.... this is my approach...and get it into your brain.

I reserve my comment on your "olodumare". Whether he is the same God we serve like babalawo Fatomikin or so always say... and many others say, i won't argue. But for me to believe you that your god is real...you will declassify Odu Ifa. That is it. If you don't declassify it, do not near me

I jave no business with whoever you claim worship ifa. You said it. I dont care to even check. If Wole Soyinka is stup.id to listen to 90 years old brain with dementia, do you think he would win his pretiguous award? I dont care what he worships. What I care about ia that you should declassify odu ifa. Make it open. What are you hiding? The Bible is out there. This is the main angle of my argument. Get this into your brain.

What are you afraid of? Mr Quantum Physics could not reply after I gave him his portion. You carried your sharp and intuitive mouth here...and see what you have become.

Get the crap outta this thread cos this discussion is beyond you. If you want to discuss this in this group, you will go to those online papers your fake babalawos put there to defend whatever you want to say here. I told you....you think I am the one who will start fighting you regarding fake pastors. Yes, there are many. But the standard is the Bible which is open to all. It is online. The Bible is everywhere. References to the bible are everywhere. Tell us where the ifa odus are. Let us check. See...I don't want to insult you ooo. But you have an extremely low IQ. Just jumped into matters you know nothing about...and then start insulting everyone here. You better carry yourself outta this thread before i descend on you. Cos if I change my approach, you will ask ground to swallow you up cos I will rubbish you. I promise you.

See low IQ telling me i want to be spoon-fed. I will school you...teach you odu ifa...tell you the lies you have been told. You don't know me at all.

You have nothing to offer here. Get the crap outta here and stop insulting everyone here.
