What did you think ? How else is it possible for the currency of economies that are shrinking (UK,US etc) to appreciate against one that we say is stagnant (Naija) ?
When the pound was falling I was purchasing cheap pounds to buy nonsense from UK and not touching my UK account . Now that the pound has ridiculously appreciated against Naira I can change my pounds to buy more Naira to do more sensible things at home . See that at first I am sending money OUT of Nigeria and now I am sending money[b] INTO[/b] Nigeria. That is the easiest explanation I can think of.
At this end of year period most manufacturers power down their production anyway , so the only people likely to suffer are those intending to go shopping for useless items from abroad. I think CBN should allow it to exchange $1 = N1000 till February 2009

This offer is real and still open just in case anyone has doubts. I am using this for a lot of my business correspondence and will be using to SMS-greet all my friends on Xmas and New Year day

You mean okada ?

@Ilugunboy,

The kind of peace that was in Iraq when saddam Hussein was the President was characterised by fear.  The Iraqis were living in fear because Saddam was a tyrant.  Fear didn't let the people express themselves and it was manifested when Saddam was executed as you saw the people jubilating.

the way it is, they have only exchanged the fear of being tortured and killed by saddam's henchmen for the fear of being blown to bits on the way to market or mosque . poor idiots; they are doomed anyway - together with most of the world (except maybe inconsequential places like Nigeria )

Why should anyone want to blow themself up ; that's absolutely crazy . More fun to throw shoes ; you get rich and you get to shag as many chicks as you want

cgift:
while you may argue that his tactics may have been wrong, there was the need to have the alllied forces' intervention else, I[b]raq would have self-destruct a long time before now[/b]. think about that.

Big deal ; so the self destruct has been postponed for a few more years at the cost of tens of thousands of innocent lives, and the embolding of Iran, of a more calamitous power stronghold which respected none other than the superior madness of Saddam Hussain. The Middle East is gonna burn bros; prepare for the end of the civilised world. (Read Revelations ) . Are you all prepared to meet your maker ?

I hate having to travel abroad to get new shoes . Is there anyone know where I can get Clarks for men to buy in lagos

Lies , damned lies !!
The British that I know lie about sex all the time and having spent more than 15 years  in UK i think they are the most sexless people on earth.  To the average British , watching a porn movie , talking about sex , reading a porn magazine (while doing you-know-what) or getting drunk can be equal to having sex  and in fact they'd rather getting pissing drunk rather than engage in copulation.  Same sex relationships are more common though and  if you call that having sex (rather than degenerate behaviour) the  they are then quite promiscuous.

Funny thing is that the English , Welsh , Scots also say this all the time.

What exactly then is the state of my thinking ?  , as you appear to completely understand me (in 2 minutes) more than I do myself

NEW YORK - The list of investors who say they were duped in one of Wall Street’s biggest Ponzi schemes is growing, snaring some of the world’s biggest banking institutions and hedge funds, the super rich and the famous, pensioners and charities.

The alleged victims who sunk cash into veteran Wall Street money manager Bernard Madoff’s investment pool include real estate magnate Mortimer Zuckerman, the foundation of Nobel laureate Elie Wiesel, and a charity of movie director Steven Spielberg, according to The Wall Street Journal.

Among the world’s biggest banking institutions, Britain’s HSBC Holdings PLC, Royal Bank of Scotland Group PLC and Man Group PLC, Spain’s Grupo Santander SA, France’s BNP Paribas and Japan’s Nomura Holdings all reported that they had fallen victim to Madoff’s alleged $50 billion Ponzi, or pyramid, scheme.

The 70-year-old Madoff (MAY-doff), well respected in the investment community after serving as chairman of the Nasdaq Stock Market, was arrested Thursday in what prosecutors say was a $50 billion scheme to defraud investors. Some investors claim they’ve been wiped out, while others are still likely to come forward.

“There were a lot of very sophisticated people who were duped, and that happens a great deal when you’ve had somebody decide to be unscrupulous,” said Harvey Pitt, a former chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission, a regulatory agency in charge of monitoring investment funds like the one Madoff operated.

The extent of the potential damage prompted a leading fund manager in London to lash out at US. regulators for failing to detect the fraud earlier.

“I think now it is very difficult for people to invest in things that are meant to be regulated in America, because they have fallen down in the job,” Nicola Horlick, the manager of Bramdean Alternatives, which has 9 percent of its funds invested in Madoff’s scheme, told the British Broadcasting Corp.

“All through the credit crunch this has been apparent,” Horlick added. “This is the biggest financial scandal, probably, in the history of the markets.”

Among US. investors, the Boston-based Robert I. Lappin Charitable Foundation, a charity that financed trips for Jewish youth to Israel, let go of its staff after revealing that the money for its operations was invested with Madoff.

New Jersey Sen. Frank Lautenberg, one of the wealthiest members of the Senate, entrusted his family’s charitable foundation to Madoff. Lautenberg’s attorney, Michael Griffinger, said they weren’t yet sure the extent of the foundation’s losses, but that the bulk of its investments had been handled by Madoff.

Lautenberg’s foundation handed out more than $765,000 to at least 100 recipients in 2006, according to the most recent listing on Guidestar, which tracks charitable organization filings.

The foundation helps support a variety of religious, educational, civic and arts organizations in New Jersey and elsewhere, and its contributions range from a gift of more than $300,000 to the United Jewish Communities of MetroWest New Jersey to a $2,000 donation to a children’s program at the Hackensack Medical Center.

Reports from Florida to Minnesota included profiles of ordinary investors who gave Madoff their money. Some had been friends with him for decades, others were able to invest because they were a friend of a friend. They told stories of losing everything from $40,000 to an entire nest egg worth well over $1 million.

They join a list of more powerful investors that have come forward, all worried about the extent of their losses. The roster of names include former Philadelphia Eagles owner Norman Braman, New York Mets owner Fred Wilpon and J. Ezra Merkin, the chairman of GMAC Financial Services, among others.

The Wall Street Journal, citing a person familiar with the matter, said Mortimer Zuckerman, the chairman of real estate firm Boston Properties and owner of the New York Daily News and US. News & World Report, had significant exposure through a fund that invested substantially all of its assets with Madoff.

The Journal also said the Steven Spielberg charity, the Wunderkinder Foundation, in the past appears to have invested a significant portion of its assets with Madoff. It said the Elie Wiesel Foundation for Humanity, founded by the famed Holocaust survivor and writer, was hard hit by losses, citing two people familiar with the organization’s investments.

Messages were left with the Zuckerman fund and Wunderkinder foundation. The Wiesel foundation said it was looking into the matter.

The Journal also reported potential investors and firms exposed to the alleged fraud included: Carl Shapiro, founder and former chairman of women’s apparel company Kay Windsor Inc.; Bed Bath & Beyond Inc. co-founder Leonard Feinstein; Yeshiva University; EIM Group; UBS AG; Fairfield Greenwich Advisors; Tremont Capital Management; Maxam Capital Management and Ascot Partners.

Among those overseas confirming exposure on Monday, Banco Santander, the largest bank in the euro zone by market capitalization, said its clients have 2.33 billion euros ($3.07 billion) in exposure with Madoff, mostly through a fund called Optimal Strategic US Equity.

HSBC, Britain’s largest bank, said a “small number” of its institutional clients had exposure totaling some $1 billion in Madoff funds.

It added that it has custody clients who have invested with Madoff, but it did not believe those “custodial arrangements should be a source of exposure to the group.”

Royal Bank of Scotland — Britain’s second-largest bank, which is now 58 percent owned by the British government — said it could lose around 400 million euros pounds through exposure in trading and collateralized lending to funds of hedge funds invested with Bernard L Madoff Investment Securities LLC.

Man Group, the world’s largest publicly traded fund manager that reported exposure of around $360 million on Monday, said “it appears that a systematic and comprehensive fraud may have been committed, evading a range of structural controls.”

Japan’s Nomura Holdings said it has 27.5 billion yen ($306 million) in exposure, but added that any losses were likely to be limited compared to its capital base.

This is a classic Ponzi (419) scheme in which thousands of persons worldwide lost more than $50bn. If this had happened elsewhere (e.g Nigeria) one can only imagine the worldwide hysteria that would have resulted. Is this a lesson that we must try and intelligently manage our challenges and failures so that we don't lose whatever respect that we have earned in the past and on other fronts ?
