Thundafireseun:
I don’t think I understand a word you said at bolded… what makes you think I’m Igbo or Yoruba??

You are a tribalistic bigot


Wike’s cousin is Edo state INEC chief executive officer and you think Obaseki stood any chance of winning
The results were released at the various polling units and all the political parties had their copies. So what do you think the INEC officer will do to influence the results. Is he a magician. Or you think after the polling units people will go and sleep.
Nigerians like believing rumours from election losers that it was rigged.
Let me tell you it is not easy to rig an election outside the polling units. The most political parties can do is vote buying. Stop believing rumours.

Yeah, PBAT is right on this one. He should continue his good policies. Anyone from Edo State that voted for APC that complains against APC policies should develop an athlete foot.

Even though I am not an APC supporter, I hate all these noise without facts and figures.
You have the results, tell us the figures your party won and the point that INEC changed it.
Hope Uzodimna of Imo state went to court with copies of the results sheet. The court recalculated it and awarded him his scores.
Is this not a good precedent for others.
Instead the other politicians will make noise and no facts at the end.
PDP should save us this noise.

The iREV can also be programed to calculate votes and display results. It depends on what Election umpire wants. If Mahmood Yakubu wants to continue to determine who can be what in Nigeria, the iRev will remain mostly irrelevant in Nigeria's elections.
Exactly, but the politicians and political parties are not complaining.
I am not an expert but will my little knowledge of programming, I can design a better platform to handle Nigerian elections in a way that there will be no rigging and snatching of ballot boxes.
Most times one wonders why simple things are very difficult in Nigeria especially when handled by professors.

Nigeria's retrogressing election process.

What happened to iRev portal where everyone is supposed to be viewing the results fed by presiding officers?
That's what am saying. All the results are on the IREV. The problem is the IREV don't calculate, it only shows results sheet from the polling units

What's this?
This is called mass rigging
How?. The political parties had all the results from the polling units in their possession, so how is possible to change the results without them knowing.

Immediately after Paul and the apostles, Christianity took over the Roman empire-this empire helped the spread of Christianity with the conversion of Emperor Constantine (you've probably heard his name before). Of course, Christianity was made the state religion and the churches were united (this united church became the Catholic Church of today). But there was a growing discontent in the church; there was argument over whether Jesus was purely spirit (gnosticism) or part spirit part human, and Trinity( was Jesus Christ spirit God or human reincarnation of God like Osiris or Mithras). Emperor Constantine called a meeting of bishops to discuss the division. It was termed the council of Nicea( I want to believe you know about it, if you don't; WTF! You don't know the history of your religion) Well, the bishops supporting humanity of Jesus and Trinity won; and the church split into two; Roman Catholic Church (later name) and the Eastern Orthodox Church(most of the churches in Eastern Europe, Russia, and Ethiopia, Egypt). You can go confirm everything I have said here; you'll probably find more information.
Those that worship God should do so in truth and in spirit. The Emperor and his deeds are history. What about you? what do believe and worship?

How exactly was this election rigged?
There was security, no ballot was snatched, nobody was intimidated, people buying votes were arrested, results were uploaded to the server.
How was the election rigged? In what way was the integrity o the election compromised? Or is it about claiming it is rigged if your candidate loses?
You are right. The party Agents are supposed to have copies of results from the polling units. Now that the results were uploaded, is it not for the political parties to tally the results on their own.
I don't know how rigging will happen when results were uploaded.
Vote buying is another thing all together. All the politicians are guilty of it. It is better than adding figures from no where.

He is a master of rigging,forgery and corruption without any iota of shame.how can you expect a free and fair election for such a man?
Not like that! APC worked very hard and shared a lot of money. You cannot be sleeping and think that Tinubu has a magic wand to win an election.

Nonsense stories like this show that either the events didn't happen on Earth; they probably happened in another world of superhuman aliens, or they are myths. There's no mysterious story or miracle that has been repeated in our time. I do not believe that Jesus ever existed as a human being; that was actually the big issue that first split the church.
Which church?
You free to believe or not believe, it makes no difference.

Business › Re: 0.005%: CBN To Reintroduce Cybersecurity Levy On Electronic Transactions by EXPRESSSMAN(m): 12:41pm On Sep 19, 2024
If Tinubu did not destroy the economy before he started, all these taxes would have make some sense to shore up the revenue of the government.
But now, the reverse is the case. He has already destroyed the economy, he is trying to bury it.
This idea is just to raise campaign money for 2027 because Nigerians have been defeated, and lack inquisitive minds.
Banks that declare thirty billion Naira as profits do not need the citizens to maintain security. And they have never complained to any government.

Direct polling unit transmission of results to a central server ... Cancel local government collection centres that's where rigging takes place

These experts did not capture freight, insurance, import levies and other levies associated with importation.
By the time you remove them, the price should reduce reasonably.
The only thing is with this NNPC control now, it is still going to be business as usual. No one will know the actual price and the consumption level.

I understand the angle you are coming from. But, tell me what the other regions has done differently that makes them better na. At least they were collecting allocations.
Note that when we had regionalism, no region comes close to the south west except if you wanna live in denial grin
Well, you said you will not respond with English. You should still make out time to read about those two concepts.
The FG makes macro policies, they control currency , security, imports and all major economic indecies and the States operate under the rules of FG.
Why bring the States. Can the State make the currency strong or weak for the people. Can the State control the price of fuel? Can the State control import duties, or security.
Are these not the issues at stake? What are the role of States in macroeconomics issues that determinine the state of the nation's economy? These are the relevant questions to ask.

Its rather unintelligent to lay the entire blame upon tinubu and exonerate buhari knowing the terrible rape of the economy and thieving of the buhari regime..as well as the Jonathan era

In fact out of the three , good luck, buhari and tinubu, i think tinubu is still the one who is trying to change things the best and has the most cerebral govt making some degree of effort. At least its not business as usual in his govt .painful yet necessary economic adjustments are being made

As they say the effective medicine is the bitterest one..

Baba don talk say things will get tougher before they get better it's just the way it is.

Abati is playing to the tribal sentiment gallery to garner anti tinubu/yoruba support and this lowers my regard for him..such a pedestrian statement. When did yorubas ever say they are better at managing the economy? For Abati to make such a tribally polarising statement is sad coming from a former newspaper editor who should understand things better

Make una go plant farms for your backyards and buy horses or bicycles for movement.. 😂.. If things improve nobody will commend the govt


Me I'm not a fanatic of any politician, i liked some of Goodluck's policy but he had no balls to push any of them through..to the extent of being bullied out of power..At least Jagaban has a pair of nuts. what's the use of good policy only on paper? .SNC only on paper? In this short time Tinubu is doing his own form of restructuring .. like i said I'm no fan of any of them, im just saying my own view.

My own be say by the grace of God when others are saying there is a casting down, i shall be celebrating a lifting up . I am redeemed to flourish even in hard times, my case is different by God's grace .

Anyone quoting me keep it polite abeg..
Truth is you don't know what you are talking about. Tinubu has no comportment of a president from day one. Even today, Tinubu cannot say 10 problems of Nigeria. Stop defending nonsense. When you see a ruler working, you will know.
All those people you mentioned tried to float the Naira but when they saw the impact they backed out. Tinubu should have taken his time to study the exact state of the economy before knowing what to do gradually.
Do you that there is no country in the world that you can increase prices up to 10% at a time in the name of reform. It can only happen in Nigeria.
So stop comparing Tinubu with past presidents. We are all watching to see where all the Agbero style will lead him. Reasonable Nigerians have been talking, but like Biblical Pharaoh, he is too big to listen or make amendments.

So, how is the states not managed by the south west and the North faring, are they doing better than the two regions you said have destroyed this country??. Don't tell me it's the government at the center that is responsible for the funds allocated to those states too over the years. Those regions ought to be way better economically and in every aspects of life if they are good leaders grin
Did you know the difference and relationships between Macroeconomics and Microeconomics?
Just look for it before you talk of the regions.

This day-dreamer Gbenga Adeyinka sounds so naive or rather ignorant because at the moment, there is no clear plan to chart way forward for Nigeria out of our numerous problems.

Look, I know how one feels when one's hero is failing and you refuse to accept reality but instead you keep believing. But it is what it is.
That's the problem his blind supporters don't realize. There is no clear plan in sight. The president's body language says it all.
Tinubu is there for personal glory. That's all I can see.

It is surprising that a document as legal and sacrosanct as the National Budget, worked on by many hands, debated by the Legislature for months and eventually signed by the President after many of his aides, special Advisers and ministers have gone through would still contain all these insertions here and there.
I don't understand these things at all.
Jobs/Vacancies › Re: Asking An Employer The Salary Range Before Interview. by EXPRESSSMAN(m): 8:55am On Sep 06, 2024
DesChyko:
Someone asked me that too. I simply told him it depends on a lot of factors and isn't within my purview as a recruitment rep to disclose.

I feel it's a bit awkward to prioritise salary before your ambitions of working at such a place in a corporate world. One even said 'let me know if I can risk coming'. Strange.

Sharing a range before knowing the ability/value of a potential employee can attract ugly eggs and potentially keep away the valuable ones. You can peg a salary at an amount, but be willing to increase it for those whose value are worth it. You can also peg it at too high to get the great hands, and end up inflating job market needlessly.
I recruit for companies as well. It is Important to let the candidates to know of the salary range if they ask for it at any point. There is no secret about it.
Like the case th Op stated, the person supposed to tell him the range since he asked for it.

santaclaws:
If Tinubu doesn't unfloat the Naira and control it like Buhari did, he might be stoned out of office (metaphorically) cos people are earning too low for them to afford buying commodities pegged at USD rates, especially fuel being the alternative to unstable power and also transportation.

The Naira isn't competitive yet, even Buhari knew this and made sure the CBN held it but Tinubu took an economically unsound decision by removing the subsidy and floating the Naira. This is what the IMF wants for Africa's largest economy and he was just a puppet who knew too little about the macroeconomy.
You get it. I have said it on many occasions that if Tinubu like let him climb the mountain Everest, nothing will change except he unfloat the Naira.
I still wonder why this primary economics situation is too difficult for them to understand.

We can now see clearly why they are trying to frustrate the refinery.
Whether for good or bad, we need a change from this NNPC monopoly. Let NNPC control the refineries that are under them. They can not destroy them and become the sole buyer in another local refinery with the years of stories

wow.. This is really helpful. I pray God continues to enrich you in knowledge. You just made me to see from another perspective. God bless you sir!
Okay. To guide you further, look for someone doing E-commerce/digital marketing to train you practically. It is not about digital courses or YouTube videos. just practical one on one. It may take some weekends for two months. If you can acquire this skill, you will have no problems making money at will. You will need to have a small laptop and your android phone.
I paid someone 30k in 3 instalment to be trained physically. After two months training, I was able to start practicing. I made all the money I invested in the program in just one day. And since then no looking back.
It is not easy, but if you remain focused, there is a lot you can do.
Many people are cashing out big from YouTube and other social media with just Al copy and paste which any primary school pupil can do.
So just start from what I suggested, by the time your eyes are opened to the opportunities surrounding you, you will start to cry.

This comments make me laugh but I still appreciate it. Anyways, I have a job and hustle I earn little from but I've not been able to make anything out of it apart from feeding, rent and satisfying my basic needs. But why I really want to have an additional certification is because I have seen at least 3 opportunities only meant for someone with masters degree. Someone just got his lecturing job through me. I appreciate ur comment anyways. Thanks and God bless you
Bros, we can understand you, but what you think that is the problem is actually not your problem.
You have graduated from high institution that's a big plus to you. You don't need to feel inadequate, you don't need to feel that a PhD would have made life easier. No. It doesn't work like that. The one you have is good enough.
You only need to explore the opportunities that are available for you onshore and offshore.
I am not a teacher, but I write lecture notes and sell online. There are also many people to teach both online and offline.
Do you know that the way Nigeria musician, film, and skirt maker uploads their works and earn foreign currency from them is also the same way you upload lessons notes and earn as well.
Invest small in information and learning how to and you will discover your own way. It is not all about certificates and looking for employment.

It is not for her family. It is for Umunna. The family will only get some share from Umunna. It is Umunna that gave the list of items not the family.
And finally, when the list is given to you , can negotiate for 5%, 10%, 50% etc.
Furthermore, to show that you are loaded , you can choose not to negotiate. This is option many guys like= no negotiation with Umunna. Just shot their mouth.
