PoliticsRe: Coalition Effect: Tinubu May Resume Fuel Subsidy Payment by fineboynl(m): 5:34pm On Jul 17, 2025
Rent of 200k rose to 700k. The ones of 400-500k is now 1.2m to 1.5m. Ontop a stagnant salary.

The damage have been done and nothing can correct all of that. Even if he reduce fuel to 200. I don’t see all things rent coming down again.

FamilyRe: Reasons Why Several Marriages Are No Longer Lasting by fineboynl(m):
Selfishness and greed. Many girls want a good man but they don’t want to sacrifice or invest anything in the union. Yet you want someone that will do everything for you. Dating is different from marriage.

Your boyfriend can pamper you when dating but when you start living with him those things will stop. That when you face reality.

Just like a visitor. When a guest stays more than they are welcome. The host change the hospitality to reality.
PoliticsRe: Your Father Was The Best! Nigerians Pray For Umar Musa Yar'adua's Son As He Weds by fineboynl(m): 11:32am On Jul 17, 2025
anonimi:
If YarÁdua is not the worst rogue ever, why did he not resign and have another election instead of hanging tight to a flawed election that was annulled in the minority opinion of Onnoghen and two other SCON justices?

What happened to all the corruption under his administration when oil price was $140?
Why did he cancel all Obasanjo projects, after that one made him president with Iwuruwuru INEC election huh
I’m sure he won the election. The process was not perfect that was just it

Satalite imaging was focused on Iran key areas.

Even the supreme leader Isreali knows of his location. But world powers disapprove killing him.

While Iran busy firing missiles and drones ISREAL focus was illuminating top officials
PoliticsRe: Obi Should Just Forget About The ADC Ticket With What I Saw Yesterday At Kastina by fineboynl(m): 2:36pm On Jul 16, 2025
Remember atiku couldn’t defeat buhari with a wide margin even with overwhelming support from the south . How will atiku going to defeat tinubu this time around? The power of governors and president at play here. With money politics. Tinubu has never lost election before. They will share money on Election Day mostly in the north and those uneducated voters will sell their votes. Nigeria democracy is not ready yet. As long as we still have this old politician.
Car TalkRe: Why A Nigerian Professor Would Not Be Able To Afford A Car by fineboynl(m): 12:18pm On Jul 16, 2025
Anyone who can’t comfortably afford a car won’t be able to fuel and maintain it.

Only fueling will goops 60% salary. Oil change and other maintenance you likely cripple the finance.

So tell me why would anyone want to buy a car with loan in Nigeria?
PoliticsRe: Joe Igbokwe Slams DJ Switch Over Her Reaction To Former President Buhari's Death by fineboynl(m): 12:25am On Jul 16, 2025
It’s a normal thing to celebrate your adversary. Your enemy who be your footstool. Even pharaoh footstool where images of it enemies. You celebrate when they are dead. The DJ was lucky to escape death so she beee to celebrate.
Car TalkRe: Car Monetization In Nigeria – Anyone Earning From Their Vehicle? by fineboynl(m):
Not worth it. The business done courtesy Buhari and tinubu.

Taxi business are not making it anymore. Vehicle maintenance will eat up the profits. The only people making something out from this business are people using scrap. They don’t do any maintenance again. They go to Mobil to collect used oil every 3 to 4 weeks.

They just buy fuel and move motor dancing from all the chassis and suspension.

If you buy tok car for example and use it in Nigeria. Within 3 years you won’t even look the car again despite all the maintenance done to it. Panel beater Spray painter don’t use better materials or do good works. The car will lost value without you eve realizing anything from it. To change oil is over 30k and buy expensive fuel daily so how are you going to make it?

PoliticsRe: Buhari’s Body Will Be Returned To Nigeria As Cargo Consignment, Chidi Odinkalu by fineboynl(m):
His leadership saw the death and displacement of hundreds of thousands of Nigerians. He acted like a god and would have dead long ago if not for the country resources. And flew out to London for any headache and at a time he was leading from London hospital. As soon as he left office everyone knows that luxury is gone and it won’t be long for death to caught up.

His dismay is almost like that of Abacha . Everybody doesn’t even show concern like they lost a former president as no one is even talking about it on the streets.

North cannot remove tinubu with northern candidate

Even atiku cannot clear the north.

This is a fact.

If the north support Obi . Obi can get half votes from the north and clear key states in the south.

People don't even care and talk about it. People just move like nothing happened for an ex president for that matter. I begin to ask people if they are aware of buhari death imagine that kind thing and they are aware.
TV/MoviesRe: BREAKING: Dstv And Gotv Now Offer Weekly Subscription Plans, Not Just Monthly. by fineboynl(m):
DStv will collapse if they introduced pay as you watch.

To me this weekly sub doesn't really do much. Maybe only for people that travels alot. Because as a family person with kids you still end up subscribing it every week. Only advantage you might skip some week. That would be if the weekly is not higher than the monthly.

Daily would have also be introduced for people who only stay house weekend.
TravelRe: Germany Effects Visa Changes From July 2025 …ends Appeals, Adopts Faster Work Vi by fineboynl(m): 8:12pm On Jul 12, 2025
European want to start manufacturing and cheap labor. Spain starts it. It look like industry is going back to Europe.

The dependence and importing from China is about to go down. China will bleed in 2026.

America and Europe are the major market for it's higher end product. While South America, some part in Asia and Africa are where they send the cheapest product to which cannot really sustain the Chinese economy.

Europe need cheaper labor work force at this time. Things do change in every decades.

Capitalism which the government of the day is introducing to Nigeria has failed from where it's been copied. Since the subsidy was removed and increased inr tax. What was achieved?

The 1 billion before subsidy removal and tax increase is now about 10 billion. Money is not by numbers but by value. They made more numbers but lost the value.

BusinessRe: Pls Advise Me, Which Business Can I Do With 1 Million Naira by fineboynl(m):
Business on-top 1 millions. Just de play.

If you don’t have other money, like other sources of income to be supporting be supporting the business and growing it you better enter food business. Go to market and look for a space. Enter one field of business like grains or yam and potato. Don’t mixed it. Just stay with a particular niche.

If it’s skill job. Saloon or car wash. Or seasonal farming like cucumber, plantain, yam or potato

we should also praise and thank Godwin emefiele.

If not for emefiele Nigeria wouldn’t have get to this level.

Emefiele introduced digital banking and cashless economy that forced Nigerians into banking.

Before now Nigerians don’t accept transfers. They either fear or don’t trust the system.

But today that is history.

PoliticsRe: Obi Will Leave ADC, Split Votes And Tinubu Will Win Easily In 2027 - Rufai Oseni by fineboynl(m): 6:03am On Jul 10, 2025
Atiku cannot clear the north not to talk of South* it was the south that gave him the boost during buhiri second term.

Obi voted where stolen in last election. Reason him came 3rd.

The south will not vote atiku when it's the south turn. If the north cannot allow obi to run and do another 8years while not just allow tinubu finish 8 years.

Even if obi run as vice for atiku the they will not pull as much votes from the south like if obi is the flag bearer.

In a sitting 3k food at a local restaurant in that case for a poor fellow 5k is manageable in a day.

You don’t need to reply me. Just try to work harder. Because that 40k nor follow even if you intend cooking

PoliticsRe: Tell Nigerians If You Will Bring Back Subsidy - Governor Radda To Coalition by fineboynl(m): 6:02am On Jul 09, 2025
DeLaRue:
Absolute nonesense.

You did not tell us which country you live in where 'government subsidise nearly everything but no problem to the country.'

Mention the country na. Even Saudi Arabia has stopped 'subsidising everything'.

You think you are the only one that has lived abroad.

You are either trying to deceive people or you don't understand how the country you live in work.

I lived in the UK, my income (salary) tax plus Council tax was over 40% of my salary every month.

So, if I went to a hospital that was free in the UK, it meant the government was subsidising the hospital?. Absolutely not. It simply meant I had paid for the 'free' hospital through the very high tax I was paying.

You say people pay taxes in Nigeria, hence the government should provide subsidised services. Which tax really.

My tax in Nigeria is ...erm, less than 2% of my income (tax people please no come harass me o - you people don't demand for tax ). Yet, you want the government to wave a magic wand and provide Nigerian citizens with a fabulous subsidised lifestyle.

Some of the richest countries in the world have some of the highest income taxes in the world.

Personal income tax in Japan, Finland, Austria etc are around 50%. In Sweden, it is 52%. In Ivory Coast, the most organised country in West Africa, personal income tax is over 60%, the highest in the world. So you can see there is some correlation between high government tax revenue and development. Will Nigerians agree to pay 40% of their total monthly income in tax?

And remember many of those developed countries have been collecting taxes from their citizens for over 200 years which they have used to build their country.

Yet, in 2025, the vast majority of Nigerians still pay zero tax, yet you want to compare Nigeria to those countries.

As for electricity, I get up to 22 hours a day consistently, and I am not even in Zone A, or whatever they call it. While it is safe to say my experience is not replicated across the country, there clearly appears to be manifest improvement in many areas, and I hope with time, every part of the country will share in that experience.
how much is minimum wage as relative to those countries mentioned? Nigerian has the lowest minimum wage in the world and there is a reason for that because of subsidy and low cost of doing business things.

PoliticsRe: Tell Nigerians If You Will Bring Back Subsidy - Governor Radda To Coalition by fineboynl(m):
If we look at the negative impact on subsidy removal compared that to zero benefits any right thinking leader would have retraced it steps.

They told us this government will not borrow after removing it. But today they are still borrowing.

School fees increased and electricity. Still nothing to show rather than more suffering for Nigerians.

Feeds is now above the roof, transportation is higher than salaries. Healthcare is terrible for poor Nigerians. Inflation and businesses folding up.

So tell me what Nigerians are benefiting from this government with increase in tax every now and then. Internet subscription has tripled in the last few years


They told us subsidy is the problem why we haven’t developed and removing it will bring butter and bread.
So what excuse do we have right now to justify subsidies removal because nothing has improved other than retrogression

HealthRe: Why Do Doctors In Nigeria Tell Patients Not To Eat After A Surgery? (photo) by fineboynl(m): 12:57pm On Jul 07, 2025
Research on Abdominal Adhesions:

Yes, touching or handling the intestine, particularly during surgery or due to injury, can affect it. While gentle handling during procedures like surgery is necessary, it can also lead to complications like adhesions, inflammation, or even perforation. Furthermore, excessive or improper handling can disrupt the delicate balance of the digestive system and potentially cause further issues.
