Get her arrested her eyes go clear

you cannot arrest someone for destroying their own property.

Thanks so much for this update. What do you mean by ID Card. Can you explain further. Thanks.

Its a work ID from the Uk, Military and uniform men term to respect it. That's how I did not pay 50K, I'm liable to that 50K.

Badgers14:


I am glad your journey was smooth.

I am curious on the ID part.

What kind of ID is this? NIN registration?

nah lol its a kind of ID from the UK they term to respect in most parts of the world. But the bottom line is, you need your valid Nigerian passport to travel from Nigeria even if you got a Blue passport

Obinoscopy:
@erico2k2, have you left Nigeria to the UK? Please update us with your experience at the Lagos airport when you were leaving so as to guide others in your situation.

Right I arrived safely back in london yesterday.
SO here it goes my experience, when going I was allowed to travel on my expired Nigerian passport, it was signed at arrival in Port Harcourt international vis Lufthansa. Now returning was a different ball game. You are meant to have a valid Nigerian passport or show proof you have paid for a replacement passport if not you will be charged by immigration up to 50K,I saw people being charged, but I have an ID car that meant I was let off, so I did not pay.
SO, in summary, you will need a valid Nigerian passport to leave Nigeria even with your USA or UK passport. (1st hand information here)

We don't spend those currencies in the streets of Nigeria.

You do indirectly cos your phone you typed this on was bought with forex imported with forex.

The Northerners are trying to frustrate Tinubu's government. They are majorly in control of all the things that are causing hardship in the country:

1: Dollar: More than 90% of the people that are into black market exchange are northerners.
2: Insecurity: More than 60% of the insecurity in Nigeria is being carried out by northerners
3: Food scarcity: More than 80% of the food in Nigeria is produced by the northerners.

Its people like you who have zero Economic sense that are a threat to Nigeria. The northern people are simply businessmen and women. Your Economic polices are weak, If we produce right now as our money is weak, we will be exporting. But the power to manufacture is non-existent.

When people say the President was clueless, I know about bits but never knew it was this deep. How can you go around Businesses and start shooting, or how can you go about intimidating traders of forex? You might as well ban the ownership of dollars, but last time I checked, he has more dollars than the entire BDC

CFA used by our francophone neighbors has 10,000 CFA in one note and is doing far better than naira.

have you been to the countries with CFA? ie Mali and Niger?

So farmers can no longer sell their product to next door country??is this not the only way for such farmers to earn forex? or at least sell in whole in one day?We keep shooting ourselves in the leg. Farmers are allowed to sell to the highest bidder.As far as the buyer pays his or her duty they should be let alone.

jeromestarks:
Naira vs Dollar

Nobody is talking about Pounds even when 90% of our used electronic products come from the UK and EU

Pls go and learn from that 11 years old child I think he will school you better

Dumbest responce ever

Asswipemod:
Last time I checked, naira is the official medium of exchange in Nigeria. And stop the silly cap about naira scarcity. Aside from long and unnecessary verbiage, you have said nothing and position still holds. Dunderheads everywhere!

Dumbest responce ever.

updatechange:
You sounds like a typical obidient no offense… but do you know that those hoarders buys the bulk of the products directly from the company and straight to their warehouses where they hoard them. (A typical example flour, rice)
Now this step of theirs after a period of time will create an artificial scarcity in the market and as a student of economics when there’s scarcity of course u know what happens in the market… the price skyrockets. Now this create hardship and that leads to frustrations, starvation and even death. So your point is still meaningless, let the owner provide all the receipts and waybills with dates of their items and sue the state government if they are not guilty, it’s that simple. But as a typical obidient reasoning no Dey the agenda. Smh.

you Soud like an 11 year old ,infact my 11 year old is far more intelligent, can the Government seize or close Dangote warehouse even though he is holding us to ransom, and cement is over the roof.
And again to make you see how silly your post is, can you quote any p art of the Nigerian LAW that Ban warehousing of goods hence with>>
You lot think with ur azzzes and respond appropriately.

Asswipemod:
So naira is scarce? You must be a joker. Naira is available. The purchasing power of naira is what we are talking about. The purchasing power is being ruined because some people are creating artificial scarcity because of naira/dollar exchange. The impact would have been limited but some evil people are using billions of naira to buy up food so that they can sell at exorbitant prices. Yes. The government can regulate the excesses of traders who create man made famine. Rice and other grains can be stored for years. There is ethics in business but you people don't want to know. That is why your people sell substandard products and out right rubbish to people in the name of doing business. The line between being a criminal and being a legitimate business person have been erased by you people.

look at you trying to sound clever and in your quest to try n be clever you shot urself in the foot cos Naira indeed is scarce, obviously you have not been listening to the news about how the CBN is mopping up cash, the ATM aint disbursing, Back to topic, just to address your foolishness please show me where I said NAIRA was scarce cos last time I checked i said Money was scarce,.I repeat now and again get this into ur thick skull, there is no law banning anyone from buying commodities or importing commodities and storing them in warehouse till the deem it fit to sell, Every Business in NIgeria well not something you will know about cos from where I am standing you aint smart enough to run a car boot sale let alone a store. Now most business who own shops have what they call packing SHOP, this is a mini warehouse, when you have multiple shops and your imports is up to loads of 40 footers ,you migrate to warehouses.

Asswipemod:
You are clueless and naive. Do you think you are in Europe or America where things like that hold sway? Wicked people can store rice for 2 years. So what's your point?

You used big words copied from what Initially said but you failed to put forward any arguments to push your claims of not being naive. I keep tell you lots yu all are clueless hence Nigeria is where it is today, be it US or EU Economics is same as far as money and people are concerned is its application and knowledge that is different like in this case, you lot are saying someone would hoard things imported with their own money, no one has the right to tell an importer when to sell his or her goods unless they are receiving grants from the government, We do not have scarcity of food in any part of Nigeria what is scarce is money to buy food due to inflation.

Obviouslyblunt:
government doesn’t act without intel. In the north, there are people that buy up produce directly from the farmers, store it to cause scarcity and sell at triple the price they bought it for. Farmers should be the direct sellers of their products and not middle men business men looking to gain exorbitantly. I never liked this government for once, but this one is a good one.

stop talking craap, so farmers in the north produce cooking oil and noodles, right?
here is what the 1st line. said
They were stacked full of commodity including rice, pasta, sugar, cooking oil and other food items.
Name one thing there that can be hoarded. RicePasta Sugar?Cooking oil??

Asswipemod:
You guys are wicked! How can shortage of cash lead to expensive food when the food is in surplus? It is shortage of food that makes it expensive. People are mopping up food and storing them away in warehouses so they can increase food prices at will because of dollar shortage. Is it dollar we spend in the country?

your reasoning is myopic, these are perishable goods, how long can one store them? this is not crude oil or petrol or cement. All these items found in the warehouse has expiry dates and best by dates on them. Do you think anyone in their right mind want to store rice for 6 months?who bears the risk of stuff going bad? who pays for the insurance?

Obviouslyblunt:
I don’t understand your writing, re read your post.

How does hording. noodles n cooking oil create scarcity lot read too much meaning i to things. These are mainly.
imported stuff.

Obviouslyblunt:
it’s simple, law of demand and supply. Hoarding goods create artificial scarcity, artificial scarcity creates hike in prices. It’s right there on the news.

How does hording. noodles n cooking oil create scarcity lot read too much meaning i to things. These are mainly.
imported stuff.

Obviouslyblunt:
food, food is scarce and the little in circulation is getting expensive cos of demand.

Food is no5#t scarce food is expensive. however free food is scarce. Where did you read in the news that cooking oil or rice or spaghetti are scarce??

Hopium:
Three times, you didn't make sense. I won't keep my hope for your fourth trial.

Like I've said, if you too pained, go to Kano State and install yourself as governor.

Im ssying this like it is now.its peo0le lile you who manage to get into deccisi9n making and 5hink with thier backside who make such call.imagine if thjs was a f3deral character.we doomed.

Obviouslyblunt:
to store goods and not to store scarce commodities affecting the country.

OK i takenit you read the news.so tell us 2hat is scarce that was found in the warehouse?plz

Obviouslyblunt:
this isn’t a hoarding propaganda, it’s a fact that some people are sabotaging a betting against the country massively, buying a hoarding in preparation for sales. Same issue has always been so in the petrol business, people buy from refineries, hoard stocks and inflate its prices.

Please I would like to ask you a simple question what is a Warehouse used for?

Hopium:
Learn to type properly, next time or I won't reply to you.

That said, have you sat to ask "why 10 warehouses?" Obviously, there are thousands of warehouse in Kano State, both small and large. Why these 10 warehouses?

You sat in your God knows where state dey comment on what's happening in Kano. Aren't we all Nigerians? Or you've never seen/heard PMS marketers locking up their stocks to artificially inflate price?

If you so pained, you can go to Kano State to unseat HE Abba Kabir Yusuf so you release the food supply back to the said warehouses.

You think I have time to proofread what I type in response to you on my Samsung phone nor reach abeg even though its 800 warehouses, it don't mean shyte,you are still daft comparing PMS to food, MS has shortage, Bag of rice and pastas and cooking oil does not, how is this hard for you to get into your thick skull??people like you are the main reasons the EFCC lose 90% of their cases in court cos of azz for brain thinking. You lot are acting as if the government gave the warehouser money to go and buy goods. So if I buy 10 container of fresh fish and decide to store them a warehouse of freezers for 10 years, the likes of you will come broke or seal the warehouse for me hording fish? Bross get sense please!
