NEVER underestimate the impact of economic blockade on any nation

Land, sea and air blockades could have disastrous consequences on any country.

Iran underestimated Trump's threat and thought he wouldn't double down on his threat.

Blockade effectively brings an economy of any country to a halt as economic activities dwindles.

Economic blockade by the federal Nigerian government during the civil war effectively crippled the Biafra government and brought the total collapse of its economy.

If this blockade on Iran continues, the economic woes would be disastrous

Note that sanctions is different from economic blockade, especially sea blockade.

I knew it wont work

If it was an EU regulator, then, there may be an iota of chance that it would be paid

It is difficult for countries outside the US, EU, Canada, Australia, New Zealand or Japan to fine a US tech firm or an EU tech firm.

The general belief is that regulators in developing countries are weak and are moved by corruption and corrupt tendencies to act.

Trump will soon throw some jabs at him

Hunger don hold them

Siasia has a corruption badge around his neck but seems better qualified for the job

Finally, Sleepy Wale Edun is leaving

The man lacks spark as a Finance minister.

Always looking like someone that just woke up from sleep

Taiwo is more eloquent and understands the Nigerian economy better.

A thorough bred professional with understanding of the workings of the informal sector.

President Ruto made little sense with his defence but faltered when he brought the English profiency comparison, which was not necessary. He should have stucked with economic indicators in comparing the two countries. I am sure Tinubu himself didn't know when he mentioned Kenya in his speech in Bayelsa.

PDP thought that they would be in power forever and started a giant structure.

The construction was paused in 2015 after the party lost out in the general elections.

Daddy Sam and Wike wants to revive the moribund edifice.

Wike may commit funds as usual, as the Patron Saint of PDP

When you say that the conflict in the North doesn't concern you, you can now see how it affects you. Money that could have been used to take care of other pressing issues are appropriated for boko haram matters

No ever price Trump Market, because if you price am, you must pay and collect.

The radical leftist FIFA wouldn't want anything religious but would gladly identify with LGQT people and their symbols. Very soon, they will ban players from making the sign of the cross after scoring a goal or kneeling to nod their fore heads on the pitch like Moslems.

naptu2:
They are just trolling.

I saw Temisan for the first time on one of the private TV stations in Lagos in the early 2000s. That's more than 20 years ago. Since then he has worked at Silverbird TV, Lagos Television, HiTV, Supersport and Classic FM/Lagos Talks.

He is a veteran.

......with these rich experiences, someone here had the mind to question why the late TV star was addressed as a "veteran".

pek:
The word veteran has lost its meaning

What do you mean??

10 to 20 years of active service in a particular field makes one a veteran, if you rise through the ranks.


Me o, I am a veteran in my own field. I can hold my own. It is a badge of honor and service.

Lots of smart chaps are in public schools while lots of dumb people are in a highly-rate private school

I saw one guy walked past where I was doing road walk, reading his book with all seriousness - it seems some of them in public schools in Lagos are writing their exams.

I engage him and found out that he is a science student and my conversations with him showed someone that is smart and has grip of his physics subject

Ironfaceman:
This is double standard. Why sentence Remilekun Temitope Balogun-Okedeyi to prison for forgery.

While the Nigeria Senate had passed a law that forgery is no longer an offence.

Remilekun Temitope Balogun-Okedeyi should hire a good lawyer and challenge the verdict.

Honestly, you no well

The forgery in this contest by the national assembly relates ONLY to candidates that have been declared winner in an election. The court can no longer use evidence of forged certificate to overturn an election victory - You see the kind of people ruling us in this country

They have invariably, validated the use of forged certificates for elections for themselves.

Validated:
Atiku - Obi
Obi - Kwankwaso

Let's be objection our analysis and disregard personal and parochial and primordial sentiments.

I don't why you guys keep deceiving yourselves and day dreaming Defeating Tinubu before 12 noon, as in what

Obidients always seems to be full of unrealistic expectations.

Elections are not on the social media or how vocal you are online. The real voters are on the streets without access to these kinds of conversations.

I doubt it

It means that their effective tax rate would be more than 50%. This is not possible, except if there are other outstanding obligations DANGOTE CEMENT owe the FG

He came to Nigeria, during the last NBA conference in Enugu and enjoyed himself.

Nigeria gave him a big publicity that the SA media picked up and was surprised at the reception given to him in Nigeria

He used that his visit to Nigeria to market himself and project an image of a Pan African freedom fighter

Nigerian politicians and show.

Take them serious at your own perils

I thought this man was hiding somewhere after that unfortunate interview with Hassan

He is back to office after the back lash he received from Nigerians

Kwakwanso would be wondering which kind wahala be this

As he ported from his NNPP, ADC got involved in big mess

He would have used his NNPP as a leverage and a rallying point for the opposition.

ADC members would have considered Kwakwanso's NNPP if their own problem lingered on but that is no more as the main man has also joined them.

I wonder how these guys expect to pull a surprise on BAT without having any sitting governor in their fold?

Forget the 2023 where Obi won some states without having a sitting governor.

APC and BAT would not allow the kind of perceived "freedom" allowed under Buhari

Abeg, make him remember Nigeria.

All the past Popes no dey look our side, since after Pope John Paul the II

The man made a big mistake by futile attempts to hide his identity and posts on twitter. He should simply have owned to them and heaven would not fall. He could simply claim it was in the past, and as a private citizen, he was allowed to support any political party. Knee-jack reaction has a way of exposing someone even further to what he was trying to hide.

Any interview you are coming to in Lagos, that is not in the heart of VI, Ikoyi, Lagos Island and Lekki Phase one or Ikeja metropolis, just shine your eyes

Some would be invited for an interview in Mushin or Ajamgbadi or Ojo, you will dress up and go without any background investigation.

I have told my nieces and nephews, once you get any interview invite outside those mentioned locality, let me know before going.

omoredia:
Hehe u wey dey pray for US visa since 1970. When cant u go to terrorists countries and see if ur behavior will be tolerated?

Very simple!!!

Some are already overly excited about this temporary spike in Yuan's demand, driven by the war.

it would just be a matter for time, the market would settle and dollar would rebound.

Anyone wishing that the US and dollar would be dethrone anytime soon is joking.

The combined effective leadership of the US and the dollar was sealed in 1945 after the second world war.

It would take a miracle and the entire world, working together, to dethrone the US and the USD, which would never happen.

Nigerian police and cruise, especially the top rank among them.

See how well protected and kitted he was.

His type would hear one gun shot and take off.

gare:
We presented her with the available options; however, she chose to pursue her Master’s degree abroad rather than return to resume Medicine from Year 2.

It appears she intends to continue on this path through to her PhD.

Fantastic! If it is abroad, wise decision.

Neuroscientists are well-respected as a specialist branch of medicine.

Lots of jobs in the mental health subsector, specialist health centers and research institutes.

gare:
Some of them blocked my daughter from medicine, only to wash the opportunity, she had to move Anatomy, she has graduated, planning to do her master's in Neuroscience

I hope she is not doing the masters in neuroscience in Nigeria? She should have still enrolled for medicine or even nursing after graduating from Anatomy. I had someone that finished in human physiology and later enrolled for medicine and has graduated, more than five years from now. If it is possible for her to go back to school and enroll for medicine, encourage her to do so. Thousands of people would graduate and be doing nothing, five to six years after graduating.

He looks like a Trump supporter

Lagos Internal Revenue Services (LIRS) go take one eye dey look am now

Trump and Nigeria !!!

It seems that the man monitors Nigeria from afar

See how them relaxed for an airconditioned court house and still be eating free food from taxpayers money
