You can't compare the shit-hole i mean the zoo to the great America the land of opportunities

Ode! What ignoramus like you don't understand is that these fundings will create global inflations. The wars against Iran and Russia will inflate gas, oil, and food prices all over the world. Na you the normies go suffer am.

They are stealing from you and your next generations to make quick profit.

It's a feature (not bug) that most Americans are priced out of the housing market because of multi decade upticks of inflation. The situation is the same here in Nigeria - during the peak of our fathers, it's a common thing for under 30s to have a stable job, a family, a car; in America, very common for mid aged men to have their own houses. What we have now is devastating. In America, the majority of them will never be able to afford a decent sized home; here, late 30s are still hustling and pushing plans to start a family back year after year.

I don't know why I'm even bothering to explain this to a blockhead like you.

Mtchew.

Mf jumped into a party with different political ideologies and he kept saying he's not desperate to be president. Let's even assume the trader won the election, he would have destroyed the party because it would have been difficult for him and the party to reach a compromise. Bro is a capitalist jumping into a socialist party.

What am I even saying self? Obi wey be say him fit no understand anything about LP ideology. I'm sure he understands nada about socialism to the core.

I've always say that nothing about Obi is presidential. He simply doesn't have the range. Everything about him is mediocre. From governance, to thinking process, to articulation, to conflict resolution, to project executions, even when he critisizes the government on his useless threads, dude just goof all about.

I wonder what entices the youth about him. Atiku is a far better candidate than him. In an alternate universe, he's competing with the likes of Dino Melaye.

I love this guy. Call him dirty all you want but he's an alpha. If you don't understand what he's doing, he just setting boundaries.

It's funny sha. Woman wey dem dey bankroll and take care of wan dey claim "yes, queen". E sure me say she no get any job or business and if she get business, na Portable dey inject cash into am. "Queen of Herself" - wtf is that shit?!

Person wey dey take care of you go dey reference you as "my queen. olori mi" but you wey be say if Portable go broke today, hunger go either deal with you and your entire family or you bounce to the next prick dey claim "queen of Herself"

A sane guy would either call or tell her behind scene to change the caption but we all know Portable is not sane but that doesn't mean he's weak. His temperament is those ones wey be say if you do werey, they show show you werey instanta, as he dey hot.

Weak ass men (with the maturity of a teenager) will land on this thread to call him all sort of names. Likewise the over-30 single ladies still operating in the love market like teens undergoing puberty.

Portable is role model in this era of weak soy men.



As if I knew. Guys wey dem girlfriends and wives dey show shege for house don dey comment. Also ladies wey dem papa and mama dey pray for back home say make God sha squeeze dem into hand of any man (any man at all) because their goods don dey stale too dey drag am

Lmaoooooo. This is unbelievable, but then it's Jagaban. The grandmaster of modern politics in Africa.

Wike and the G5 spoke through Ortom - an ex PDP governor and current member of the PDP - explicitly declared support for Tinubu before that PDP NEC meeting. Not an ordinary declaration - he said people should support Tinubu for second term - when he's still running his first term 😂; that even Buhari did two terms and Tinubu is even a greater public administrator. It's why Dino attacked him at the NEC meeting.

Aside their anti-party activities in 2023, that public statement alone is enough to suspend Ortom from the party.

Then, Wike's henchman Damagum remained acting chairman after the meeting. In three months, a new chairman will emerge from the North Central and I can bet my balls, one of Wike's stooge will emerge victor.

Atiku has lost total influence and control of PDP. He's dead politically. In 2027, he will emerge as the presidential candidate of the PDP - if I'm Tinubu - I will ensure he's their candidate and let Wike and the G5 govs run him street the second time. There is also Bala Mohamed - the chairman of the PDP govs - who is also there to do the bidding of Tinubu.

Through Wike, Tinubu has control of the PDP. I don't think people understand how insane that is. 2027 is a done deal before the 25% completion of his first term.

Is that the man Obi and his !diotic Obidients think they can wrestle power from? Lmaoooo 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Dey play!

There's currently zero opposition in this country as it stands. Mf Wike even parked his official FCT minister car in the VVIP section of the Wadata Plaza, right beside Bala Mohamed's car. O por! It's plenty. 🤣

After how the NEC went, I'm sure this merry dance is the tip of the iceberg of what went down yesterday. Wike and G5 goons would have partied overnight with booze, hard drugs, and oloshos. 😂😂😂

Atiku!!!!!! 😂 Who did you offend?

Anyways, has anyone recently heard from EponObi? It's been long I saw him sew one of his useless threads? Abi him sewing machine get fault? Asiwaju should please donate a new one to him. You know an idle man is a devil's kinikan kinikan 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

No more bad news and deaths in the country, the Agulu fraud automatically lost his job 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Lol... It's left to you, the citizens. If you are comfortable to put down your asses for greedy merchant to continue r*pe your buthole, so be it.

Your leaders will bully, you won't say anything. Your fellow countrymen will bully, you won't say pim.

You have social media. Coordinate campaigns to boycott businesses, merchants that refuse to bring down their prices. Launch campaigns to promote and divert traffic to businesses that are reducing prices. But the typical Nigerians that I know won't do such. If na to trend Davido and Burna Boy and abuse Tinubu, na that one una pr!ck dey stand and punan! dey shed water.

The FG will eventually step in to control price, but not anytime soon. Probably by June.

Asonaijaaso:
Weak hands.
You should have bought more dollars....its called averaging down.

While the trend might be downwards, there will still be a sustained spike.
Thats how you become rich.

How far? 🤣🤣🤣

Lovers of Nigeria, abeg enter this thread and laugh 😂😂😂😂

caracas:
I know you can’t answer the questions cos those two questions summarizes how dumb your initial post is….

You must be irredeemably f oolish to come here and be asking s tupid questions. You must think this is romance section.

Instead of making a fo ool of yourself, why not use Google to read up about the project - its history and funding and whatnot.

You are dim wit for asking what the minimum wage is? Lol... How old are you? 12? If your frontal lobe is underdeveloped, why not just read and move on, instead of forcing some kindergarten level arguments?

Son, you come here to argue with facts and figures, not to ask silly questions as your own myopic way of banter and public discuss.

Get the f out of here, mf! You coksocker!

caracas:
In all of this rubbish you just posted I have two questions to ask you
1… whose money are they using to build this so called super highway?
2… How much is the minimum wage in this so called countries that pay so much bills n taxes compared to Nigeria?….

Iwo ati tani niwaju tani?! 😏

Who are you to be asking me silly questions?

danowena:
You have said it all. I really don't understand Nigerians. Some roads in the UK, US and canada have tolls. The road is not by force, if you don't want to use it, use the alternatives (which are usually longer or with more traffic).

Nigerians expect the govt to even pay their rent and but theirs cars. They think subsidy should apply to all their bills as it is their right without contributing positively to the national purse through tax and other civic duties.

Don't mind them brother. Someone in the article was even proposing #300 as toll fee. What a joke! Why not #50?

With an average of #3k, it will take the country 15 years to pay back the loan for the project. That's fair tbh.

Instead of demand for vigorous infrastructural development drives, Nigerians will rather want to government to keep subsidizing dollar and fuel so they eat away their future. If Nigeria can get electricity right alone, 30% are already equipped with the knowledge and drive to clear their way to financial freedom. But no, we will rather chase after frivolities.

See them - any positive news about the nation is like cancer to them. You can guess those I'm referring to by what they posted on this thread.

Anyways, you are on your own if you are still holding dollars with the expectation to sell at 2,000 or 5,000 because you were misled by some fake financial gurus on Twitter. 😂😂😂 Sha buy enough handkerchief my dear, because it's about to become incredibly cloudy and teary 🤣.

Less than 1 year into his administration, Asiwaju has done incredibly well by demolishing and jumpstarting the rebuilding process of our economy. He has more than 3 years left until 2027. Your Ndi toilet GeePee tank distributor won't see 4th, walahai! 🤣

2027 is a done deal.

If you disagree and want to cry about it, kindly donate your tears into the toilet reservoir below. Our Northern farmers will need them to irrigate their farms in 2027 during the dry farming season. 😂😂😂

Bunch of jokers. Nigeria really spoilt her people silly with subsidies; so much they are tuned out of reality.

It's only in Nigeria that people wants all the solid infrastructures and the goodies that comes with it without paying a dime. Even tax, most don't pay. Before the fuel subsidy was removed, most were moving about with the faux reality that they are rich and earning enough. The removal shattered that reality completely. And na them dey say rubbish the previous years about the government not doing anything for them.

Fuel and dollar subsidy was removed everyone started crying.

Without toll, how do people expect the project to come to reality? The funniest thing is that most people championing this narrative have traveled outside the country and seen how infrastructure work in "sane climes".

Another issue is illiteracy. Many don't even understand the project, its importance, and what it stands to offer us all regard savings on travelling expenses, economic boost, and repping the nation on the global stage.

The costal highway will reduce the travel time from Lagos to Ilaje, Ondo State to just 45 minutes (that's just for one out of the many lanes that will cut across the South West, South East, and South South). Anyone who thinks the #3k toll gate is too expensive should use the alternative routes. It's that simple. Moreover, the minister Umahi said the 3k is just the average, meaning small vehicles could pay like 1.5k and heavy duty trucks pay 5k. So wtf is the buzz all about?

Like I've said, the country pampered the people too much with subsidizations. Too much.

You all complain of a simple toll on the greatest infrastructural development this nation has ever seen but will pay through your noses by acquiring loans and selling generational properties just to get visa to the "saner climes". You will get there to become 4th class citizens and pay through your noses all the days of your lives to their governments in form of taxes, bills, etc - literally slaving away daily so you don't get thrown out of your houses.

People think a 700km costal highway is one of those roads within their housing estates. A super highway that will have a train lane in the middle for that matter. Una never ready.

Lmaooooooo.

Na 2027 Obi go finally finish these diaspora groups; then Abure, Aisha and Obidients influencers go do the same to Obi. Cycle of thieves. 🤣

After 2027, whenever Obi hears any word related to "presidential", na so so tears him eyes go dey drip. 🤣

Proserpina:
The bolded.... Like you have typed "helped" that is her role . You are playing around with words, we all know what "to provide" means in this context. Men are to provide, Women are to support.

Sex is scared to her, it is her own input and no matter how cheap or easy to get it may be out there it is something of value to her so if that's what she use to quantity her gain and loss she is justified. It is like telling a man not to see money as a huge factor he contributes to his marriage. Personally if I'm to make a post as hers it will be cooking, yeah because it's something I don't find easy to do but I do it out of love. So that's her compromise, her offer of love, she has the right to use it as a measure. Let's not downplay it because sex is bastardized out there, to her it isn't.

You are right, two wrongs do not make a right.

Ogbeni, get off the road jooor. Just spewing nonsense all over the internet. You are fundamentally faulty.

MrBrownJay1:
again...this is what i deducted from what she said:



she doesnt understand that a wife's role is to do whatever she needs, in order to help the family... (whether support OR provide)



any smart person knows that SEX IS NOT A REWARD FROM WOMEN TO MEN... they both enjoy sex and both provide sex for one another. the minute a woman uses sex like a reward for men, as if this is what he gets in return for providing for the family, thats when she has lost the plot. whether a man provides for the family or not, he is entitled to mounting his wife.



the above is as arrogant/ignorant as a man saying to his wife:"i paid bride price so the toto is mine.... whether you like it or not"



again, this woman regards sex in marriage as a reward for her husband doing whatever he needs to do to provide for his family (whether good or bad)... so technically, when all is good she has sex with husband, and if business is not great, no sex for him. what kind of narrow minded yeye nonsense is this?!

yes some yeye men have left their wives for less than that, but just because these ignoramus did so, doesnt mean we should today make such foul way of life a great thing for marriage.

I love how you broke down the dung that !diot spewed on the thread. I doubt she even understood what she wrote.

Greenback:
You are so shameless...na small girl young enough to be ya daughter you are using to boast!!
What have you done with your life and existence?!

See epistle and foaming in the mouth simply cos of tribalism! Shior

!diot. Na me send your fake messiah to go and build salanaga for north, when no one asked him? He say epistile 😂 It not my fault your brainwave is incapable of writing that much to analyze a political hot gist.

In that occult movement, na only Epon Obi get sense na why when him do mumu things, none of una dey intelligent enough to show him the light. Barawos! Una chop the dude finish the last cycle hoping to finish off patapata in 2027.

I asked you all questions, none of una fit answer. "Can you imagine Alhaji Atiku Abubarkar commissioning such bottom barrel toilet reservoir for political points?" If you no fit answer, no bother reply.

Mf thinks this romance section. Get off the road, son!

9jatriot:
He was criticized in Anambra because of the same types of substandard projects, only to turn around and try to make him a special individual by whitewashing him I had mentioned before that if by a negative stroke of luck he had won the election, the national discuss right now would have been trivilities like "I followed the Aso Rock cook to the market today to ensure they do not buy more food stuff than necessary, I have said it that in my government, no one will become fat".

That is the kind of person he strikes me to be. Not able to conceive legacy projects like the coastal road or refinery.

Lmaoooo. You know this man too well. Aptly described.

Obi is not as sophisticated as he always want people to think. And it shows when he grants interview or discuss more technical parts of governance and economy. I would prefer an Atiku presidency than his, tbh. At least Atiku is sound, a better communicator and visionary than Obi. Obi is mundane, politically naive, and a shallow thinker.

Infact, a Dave Umahi administration would be far better. At least, we all saw Umahi's working in Ebonyi during his time as the governor and presenly, everyone - blind and deaf - can testify to his capacity, vision and capability as the minister of works. The Igbos want the center seat and aren't presenting their best. These things aren't hard and can't be force. If e didn't dey, e didn't dey.

If not for the temperament of Wike, he's a better presidential candidate than Obi.


“Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.” (Matt. 7:15–20.)

Slytiger:
Peter Obi is very dull. He can't give what he doesn't have. i.e. intelligence.

You've said it all. You can't give what you have not. Another major problem of his is that he's tight fisted, a naira stretcher like Omojuwa rightly described him.

It's good to be frugal but when you are too extreme with it, it becomes a problem.

No one can drive infrastructural development at national scale by frugality. It's impossible. You can't even build a solid brand without spending. Nigerians can already deduce and conclude how his administration will be yield mediocre infrastructure just by examine what he did in the North. Like I said, his people are deceiving him.

America became what they are today not by being frugal. The amount they spend on their military alone is ridiculously crazy.

Obi's frugality negatively showed all through his projects in Anambra as a governor. Even those who suddenly became h
his praise singers because of the election said a lot of his low quality projects. He never wants to spend.

Frugality won't have built the Eko bridges, or the Lagos rail lines or their BRT. Frugality won't have birthed the 700km costal superhighway.

Good question!

Lol. 🤣 Obidences are Pandora's downfall. They've always been. They will never tell him the truth, because *read carefully* "aesthetics and brand image"

The infallible Obi. The perfect Obi. The Messiah, albeit fake.

That's has been the image they've projected of him since he picked the LP ticket.

But what the low IQ sect fail to understand is that as person who has claimed he's the perfect candidate to fix Nigeria, moving us from consumption to production (whatever that nonsense means), the aesthetics of his output or maybe work will be judged. The talk and showings much match.

How do you claim to the One, the Messiah we all have been waiting for, the one who is different from our usual crops of politicians, and your brand (main brand - not the nonsense mumbo jumbo matras he spew in his Twitter threads) and workings doesn't reflect that?

The !diot even said to the face of the Zaria Emir that he's intensionally doing crap projects so that others can step up. What a smooth-brained desperado! 😂

From claiming in the last election that the electioneering was a religious war and telling Christians to take back their country to touring the North to drag iftar rice with innocent kids and construct eye sore water projects. He must think the Northerners and everyone is as dull as him and his band of barbarians. Prof. Wole Soyinka rightly described him. A bonafide Gbajue Grandmaster! 😂

Obi keeps digging his grave with bad optics and desperations. When you think he can't sink lower, he pulls out a stunt.

And to those who are saying shit about Obi doing the Northerns a favour:

1. They didn't ask for his help.
2. He can't be launching bottom-tier water projects like this in the South (again, optics)
3. He is the one looking for votes - Nigerians have nothing to judge his capacity and ability despite being the Governor of Anambra State for solid 8 years; one would think he would use this opportunity to showcase his readiness, uniqueness, genuineness, capabilities, ability, and taste with these minor water projects.

If this dude can't excel in a small task like this, how will Nigerians believe he is capable of handling a complex country like ours.

The crappy excellence written on that water reservoir even shines more brighter and is way bigger than the excellence in Obi's life. 😂🤣

Yes, Obi is doing it with his own personal fund. And yes, no one asked him. And likewise yes, be missed a golden opportunity to convince Nigerians he's a leader of high caliber.

Optics. Brand. They are all important. When the talk doesn't match the working, there's big problem.

It would have been wiser if he reallocated that 800 million naira he donated to his Gbajue lawyers to create just 10 solid water projects across the north. I mean high standard projects that would at least match that of Ayra Starr. Just 10. He wouldn't even spend 40% of that 800m.

His Ramadan tour is a PR disaster, tbh. He would go to his region to donate millions of naira to nursing schools but go to the North to drop water projects like cows dropping dungs in a wasteland. Optics!!!

Can you imagine Atiku Abubakar doing water project like this? It's not even imaginable. It can't happen. That's what is called a brand and excellence.

As a person hoping to contest again in 2027, as a Presidential Candidate, you just have to do it all the way or do nothing at all. Everything you do will be used to weigh and judge you by the people and your opponent will pick through them as if they are picking beans.

Toluajib:
Nigerians are funny I remember creating a thread about this
https://www.nairaland.com/8014198/go-sell-off-those-dollars

Lmaooooo! They always think the world is a tea party. Their gurus who advised them wrongly on Twitter have gone quiet.

I see them exhibit the same behavior on your thread like they did in the thread below: https://www.nairaland.com/7991452/standard-chartered-bank-warns-against

The Dunning–Kruger effect. Most of them found themselves at the Insecure Canyon *plays the "E Shock You!" sound*, but I know how most humans behave; pretty soon, they will return back to the Child's Hill.

Lmaooooo... Since I made my first post on this thread, I've seen a bunch of ignoramuses creeping in from their abode of stup!dity.

You all want to keep buying the dollar. Some even adviced the OP to average down. Abeg don't kill me with laughter.

What fundamentals will make the dollar increase from here? Abeg lecture me! What do you think will make the dollar increase against the naira from here on?

In trading, there's something called "the meat of the move is done", meaning that the deed has been done - the naira crash trend is over.

- Cardoso has successfully tamed the BDC
- He has tamed the banks too
- Dude and the EFCC are going hard after the forex street traders
- Dangote Refinery has started distributing diesel (diesel price has crashed and massive forex saved)
- Dangote will commence petrol distribution in few months (very likely price will crash or at least stabilize around 500-600; even more massive forex will be saved)
- The FG is gradually pumping the brakes on electricity subsidy (more revenue to be saved)
- BUA refinery is coming online by next year to compete with Dangote (expect more petrol price crashes)
- From the look of things, it seems Cardoso has started pegging the dollar rate

All these are happening and you think it's wise to keep investing in the dollar against the naira?

If you have sense, you should have at least noticed that the prices of goods and commodities has started coming down albeit slightly and for the most part, the surge in price has halted.

By June, local farm harvest will start hitting the market, thereby crashing the prices of foodstuffs. Lol

Many of you are playing with fire. It's better you take your money and go play 2 odds instead of cooking your brains with delusions of naira crashing back to 1900. Or rather go buy land and real estate with your money. The era of fast profit with the naira-dollar swap is over - generationally over!

Don't play! Or else, you gonna 'laaaarn'

Even multinational companies with top tier, world class financial analysts and trading experts chopped The Cardoso Koboko ; dem dey declare outrageous losses because of that naira volatility but you think you, with your #500k, are the Peter Durry of currency trading. ok, continue!

From the look of things, it seems dollar rate will continue hovering around 1100-1300 perhaps until the end of the year. And this Tinubu that I know will most definitely return dollar rate below 1000 before the elections in 2027. There was a reason he rushed all his forex saving policies immediately he came on board - the man knew what he was saying when he said "hit the ground running" during the election campaign. All his harsh policies came in very fast wotowoto so that he can have the next 3 years to get results and normalize the economy. You all keep underating the man, over and over and over and over again and it's why it always seem like the game is rigged in his favour.

Lmaoooooo... Like I've said, you gonna 'laaaarn'

The funniest thing about speculators like this is that they think currency trading is like gardening you can just pick up as a hobby. Lol. Most of you forget that currency trading is a discipline on its own. There are people who had to hone their skill for years before being good at it. People go for courses to learn it. People lose a ton before mastering the skill. The way some of you treat it is like going to a medical store to buy surgery supplies and then think, automatically, you qualify as a surgeon. You people just sat at your home, punched the calculators on your smartphone, then started fantasizing on imaginary mega profits you will make once naira crashed to 5000

Lol... Naira to 1900 is very probably a multi-decade top; meaning, most of you might never see naira trading at such mark again, ever in your lifetime.

People who scored an A grade trading the naira went in pre-2020 when naira was still around 300-400 naira - people who used the dollar as a store of value. Proud to say: I am one of them. 2021 was the last time I ever used naira to buy the dollar. Every naira I've spent since then came from my profits trading cryptocurrency. Speculators like you came in to lose your hard earn money in the blowup phase (#1500-1900). To the novice, blowoff simply means mania phase - that phase when there is excessive euphoria - the phase when even the roadside mechanics, Uber drivers thinks they can make cool cash simply by buying the dollars - when it seems it's just too easy. That's the phase when the market seduce dumb money to the slaughter house.

You don't even want to imagine the kind of crazy gains the whales (those which deep pocket who actually move price) made by dumping dollars on you all at #1900. If you notice #1900 was touched once and it nosedived ever since - the top can't be anymore clearer.

JP Morgan warned you all that the naira was undervalued, you didn't listen. Standard Chartered Bank also warned you not to speculate, you didn't listen. I also warned - some ignoramus replied me with trash, low IQ thoughts. Now dust don dey settle, eyes don dey clear. Lick your wounds and don't try silly stunts like that next time.

Here's the link to the Standard Chartered Bank thread. Go there and have a good laugh. Kindly note the silly folks who I call "the confident ignoramuses" - next time, take their silly opinions about economics and trading, even politics with a grain of salt.

A baby born today dies, people younger than you dies, people older than you dies, but the highest form of death is ignorance, which I am begging you not to spread, and you said you've never eaten any of those things, If I remember Nigerian politicians and Nigeria plus the caliber of neanderthals in it. I can never be surprised at how people can lie with impunity.

Keep deceiving yourself, But you eat that normal corn that they roast by the roadside and those northerners ukraine donated grain to will also be shouting they can't and haven't tasted GM foods.

You are actually the person oozing with ignorance. You have zero clue about what GMO foods are are. Google search the difference between modifying crop through gene editing and breeding.
