Lanretoye: The only thing that will save this country is the fall of the exchange rate,everyone is paying heavily for tinubu’s goof and no relief in sigh.
Abolish the failed naira. Let's just trade and spend dollars. imagine if government say minimum wage is $46, inflation can't reduce that. It would hold for at least 5 years. But before the year is over, our 70k naira would be may be $38 by next year, may be $20 in exchange rate.
mecuries: what was she expecting? a two or three tier cake for that amount?... does she have an idea what the market says in the price of flour, sugar, margarine/butter?... and this is even a fondant cake. Bakers are not charity workers
yarimo: And yet they can't arrest him in there office, but the clown EFCC chairman trying to show he is working by creating senseless unnecessary drama
Forget that hypocrite that is only holy in his own eyes,
For months, activist have been tipping EFCC about the whereabout of GYB but they didn't act on it.
MrBrownJay1: many are surviving (yes SURVIVING) on 35k per month, let alone the gov workers that earns 70k per months. yet you want to make me believe that this man cannot survive on 90K? how many children does he have, 10?
anyone who earns 90k monthly is above the minimum wage thus will certainly make it better than most ( at the end of the month). is it enough? probably not, but it will certainly feed a normal family.
He would have to downgrade to painful poverty where every second feels like fasting/deprivation. We are talking walking tens of kilometers daily, skipping meal, begging and stealing. That is what it take to survive.
eepeepook: Was he part of Hezbollah too? I’m beginning to believe the explosions were devices reaching their end of life. The media is fond of sensationalizing otherwise ordinary events. Poor civilians labeled terrorists by the Jewish media. Tufia! Whoever controls information controls power at the end of the day.
Since the 90's I haven't heard of pagers blowing up so someone in his inner circle set him up with a bomb.y
RodgersAkpafu: Germans and Jews hopped on boats to get to the United States in times past
Because of ESTA, a very good number of Europeans hop into America and never return to Europe
And BTW, those you see on boats are not only Nigerians, and form a small % of the migrants who left Nigeria
most of us who left left as professionals (myself inclusive) Go and see the country distribution for PhD scholarships extended to the african continent a huge slice goes to Nigerians
what about the NHS distribution of african professionals?
We as a people have made our mark out here, and no negative press or painting us as "scavengers" will remove that
we have produced more unicorns than any other african country we have a resilient talent pool that the world is tapping left and right
so again, my people "scattered everywhere" is not an insult cos many many of us are doing VERY WELL out here
The most successful Black people in the USA are often Nigerians, and it's no surprise, given the opportunities and resources available over there that they may not have had access to back home.
Additionally, with 1 in 5 Black Americans having Nigerian ancestry, it's not uncommon to find Nigerians represented across a wide spectrum of achievements, both positive and negative, simply due to sheer numbers and probability
Notfogotten: Empty your savings account and use the amount to buy as much dollars as you can get.
Your Naira loses 10% of the value every week. By December, USD is projected to hit N2800.
Your government sold you a dummy that Dangote refinery will reduce pressure on USD demand. Dangote has started production and dollar has reached all time high of N2000.
Your politicians are mopping up any available USD. No politician saves money in Naira. They realised the stupidity of doing that long time ago.
Start converting your Naira to dollars. It is a strategy in financial management called currency arbitrage. It is not a crime.
Those who bought dollars when it was #1450 has already made a gain of #550 per usd. Imagine if you purchased up to 5000 usd. You will be raking in more than 2.5 million naira within a space of 90 days.
I know the office I must visit with knife WHEN riot would start.
Someone published that flight ticket is 200k.... Transport within town is 1k (back and forth just a few meters away). Abeg let us start using dollar, CFA or Yan... Naira is killing the common man (ordinary bike can take 3k fuel and tank is till not full, how much is transport then?)... This is prove they are still moving billions of dollars out of the country.
AbujaCitiBlog: My friend mention who destroyed the economy. His name is Tinubu!
It's like a comedy skit... He didn't wait 30 minutes... Where he was being sworn in to office, he made announcement that started the hardship... 3 more years to go.
saint2ace: The plan is sim based and only available on routers not even mifis. So, you either get a router with the attached sim, which you can remove and insert in your phone, or you buy the sim off someone who has an airtel router already.
I heard the rubbish routers needs electricity/charges. t would ne hard finding someone who use it to swap SIM card (where I live).
IfnobeGod20: But he needed it last year to become president. This is why I said, Tinubu has lost lot of grounds and if election is conducted today, he will lose woefully.
In a free and fair 2023 election, Tinubu was the 3rd.
All he cares is to ask the Niger Delta people, hope you wouldn't disrupt the cash flow, if they say yes, the North can protect till Jesus Christ returns, he don't care. He needs his ROI that be injected billions for 15+ years waiting for his turn to be president.
I might branch there when leaving (to see for myself)... Eying Senegal or Togo. Ghana is to Nigerian and expensive (i heard), you sure they don't hate Nigerians?
Gerrard59: Then I doubt the legitimacy of the millions. Anyone who made legitimately made millions in Nigeria via career or business should not become a toilet cleaner in the abroad.
Millions in naira... Does bank manager makes $1k (1.5m naira)?
...and yes they have privileges that cleaners don't have but cleaners have privileges that the bank manager can not afford.
