Romance › Re: Is She Not Too Young For Me? by Focusmind:
Inconsequential

I was 32 while my wife was 20 when we got married. She just finished the defense of her final year project in school then

She has grown under my tutelage and grown into a full woman.

She brought youthful flare in the marriage while I complimented it with my maturity and experience, and, so far, we have been living well, going into the 12th year now.

There is nothing wrong in marrying a younger woman. It could even be fun for you. as she would see you as all she got, while you nurture her with love and patience. If you are not a patient type, do not marry a far younger lady. They lack experience in lots of things and are bound to make mistakes or not meet your expectations in terms of maturity, professionalism and tact in doing things. Patience is key.

This guy is a star in Catholic music renditions. Listening to his music and sound tracks always ignites the Catholicism passion in me. Thank God for your freedom. Please, don't take the freedom for granted.

Typical Yoruba man how many did the criminal in your state construct?
He made a valid point and you are insulting him. It equally means that your standards are terribly low. Modern roads are built with pedestrian walkways provided....not open gutters as you could see in the picture. Anyway, the professor already said it, that his inability to deliver on his " Dubai- Taiwan " campaign promise is due to the "large illiterate " population of the state.

Politics › Re: It’s Unfair For Lagos, Rivers, FCT To Have 70% VAT Proceeds – FIRS Boss by Focusmind: 7:10am On Nov 20, 2024
grin grin grin

BAT na master, abeg! Someone listening to Adedeji would think that he was siding North. The bill is to move funds to where consumptions are and not where the head offices of the production companies are located.
If 1m people consumes alcohol in Anambra, the VAT there to should go to Anambra. If 10 people consumes alcohol in Kano, they get vat only on the 10 people that consumes the products.

If 10m people in Lagos accesses network services from MTN, the VAT there goes to Lagos. If only 50k people accesses or uses MTN services in Kebbi state, the VAT that goes should only be on the 50k people that uses the services.

I think this is fair and Mr. President should be supported and commended for initiating this fiscal reform. VAT as a consumption tax is also a "destination" tax and the locations where consumers of goods and services lives, should enjoy higher percentage allocation.

Soludo is just an "audio" man. Everything about him is "ongoing ". Nothing has ever been completed and commissioned. With the red mud soil still visible within the construction site, give the project completion date till 2026, earliest. undecided

Crime › Re: My South African Partner Duped Me Of $3.5 Million In Kenya — Murray-Bruce by Focusmind: 3:52am On Nov 16, 2024
I am sure his total income tax paid in Nigeria under the PAYE scheme may not be up to N1m per annum. Nigerian elites and politicians would keep feeding fat on this country with little contribution to the State's coffers. If you see the tax clearance certificates of some of our politicians, with their under declared incomes, you will know why the country is like this. The same applies to private individuals in business, with properties scattered every where. Most would declare total incomes that are not up to N500k in a year just to pay little tax. It is only the working class people in the formal sector that are contributing the highest in taxes in this country.

He should go and sit down. After the discovery, what then happens? Media hype and hypocrisy all the time. Be stealth with your investigation and keep mute with your forensic investigation till you are able to nail the culprit. Not coming to the media to make unfounded allegations.

Nigeria!!!!! undecided

Yet, you want people to make sacrifice and continue paying taxes, voluntarily. This is one of the reasons why self assessment and compliance with tax payment by the citizens would be impossible. The Nigerian elites are living on unimaginable affluence and wealth to the detriment of the citizens
Foreign Affairs › Re: Ivanka Trump’s Election Outfit Sparks Wild Theories About How She Really Feels by Focusmind:
She should have stayed away. She never knew that her father would win this election. When Trump hinted that he was coming back, Ivanka issued a message that she would not be backing his bid for the Whitehouse but wished him well. Now that the father won, she is stylishly warming herself back to her father.

Foreign Affairs › Re: Now That Trump Has Won, What Are Implications To FG And Nigeria? by Focusmind: 8:35pm On Nov 06, 2024
US would increase their local oil production, thus, reducing reliance on import from Nigeria. This would deplete FG's earnings potentials and may result in budget deficit. This man may take drastic action on immigration.

They should have allowed sleepy Joe to be in the race. He had better chances than Kamala. White male Americans would take trump over Harris. Biden could have stood better chances, despite his state of health. He was cornered by Obama and Democrats to abandon the race. He should have been given benefits of the doubt.

Crime › Re: Imo Activist Secures Release Of Twins Seized By Doctor Over Unpaid Bill by Focusmind: 12:12pm On Nov 03, 2024
This one is looking for cheap publicity and at the same time, blaming the doctor. The doctor is in business and nothing more. What plan did the family put in place to offset their bills? Or were they expecting the doctor to discharge them without paying. Nairalanders are already castigating the doctor. The bill increased for each day the twins and the mother spent in the hospital. That's how it works. If your bill is 20k and you fail to pay, after one week, it would get to 30k as long as you are being sheltered in the hospital

I hope the change here is real and not the imaginary change we have here in Nigeria under those that promised us change. Be careful with those that promise change in Africa. I hope the "Umbrella Democratic Party" would give the Botswanians people real change they yearned for.

Politics › Re: Doyin Okupe, Peter Obi’s Former Campaign DG Visits President Tinubu by Focusmind: 5:41am On Nov 01, 2024
ednut1:
Seems Tinubu sponsored LP moles to reduce Atiku votes
I have been saying it but people didn't understand.
Obi and LP were agents used to stop Atiku.
Obi has never suffered any harassment of any sort from the government despite the bitter election. He has been somehow pampered and well accomodated by the current regime.

OBJ came on board not because of his love for Obi, but the intent was to push Obi on and stop Atiku. Utomi, Kenneth Okonkwo are Tinubu's loyalists. OBJ drafted Doyin Okupe to LP as part of the game plan. Okupe was his former aide. OBJ would rather support Tinubu than Atiku, his sworn enemy.

I knew that Dangote was lying and didn't say the whole truth. He thought it was business as usual, to monopolise the trade and establish dominance. He met his match in Tinubu, who is also cunny and understands the game very well. The reason the presidency is not succumbing to his antics. The warning is clear: sell at a fixed price or else, we would keep importing to maintain equilibrium price
Education › Re: Prof Bernard Odoh Appointed As 7th Vice Chancellor Of Nnamdi Azikiwe University by Focusmind: 7:07pm On Oct 30, 2024
The resume is watery and shallow

I can see Umahi's handwriting written all over this appointment. Umahi is the most powerful SE politician in Tinubu's cabinet and he can influence lots of things, including the appointment of his former SSG as the VC of unizik. To be honest, the man's CV didn't cut it for me for that position. Appointment of VCs in Nigeria is based on who has the strongest connection to the presidency and the ministry of education

His achievements are just like that of a typical Nigerian politician.I have not seen any completed project commissioned by the governor. He is always flagging off projects. undecided
