Now that he is a VERY good friend to the President, a VERY good one for that matter, he would report Ribadu to Tinubu and ask that his $15m be refunded to him. Trust me, Tinubu would gladly oblige that request.

Nigerian government and this their father Christmas posturing. This has been the hallmark of successive governments, trying to outwit one another to be seen as the father Christmas of Africa. I am sure South Africa, Egypt, Morroco and Tunisia never pay their 2020 dues finish

Transportation will take close to 40% of it in the absence of staff bus, followed by house rent. 90% of lagosians lives far from their places of work. It would be a herculean task to save. I was lucky during my own time. I started with this N150k salary when I joined an investment bank in 2004 just after my NYSC. I had the luxury of going and coming to work by staff bus and stayed with a relative for close to six years - so, no rent payment. I even felt that the N150k salary was much then as I practically wasn't spending anything except to buy my tokunbo Zara suites and shoes. My host was also doing well and didn't need any contribution from me. However, I did brought home, the yearly one bag of rice, Jerricans of ground oils, cartoons of tomatoes and frozen Turkey shared by my company every Christmas to staff.

To manage your salary,divide your costs into fixed and variable costs. See how you could manage the variable costs and how to negotiate better, the fixed costs. Good luck!

Damnnn niggar
Isoright....though I got no idea about this band
But I must say right from onset we have been the real niggar of Africa

No
Na tribalism of the masses dey ruin us..
Nor be politicians ...lets start telling ourselves the truth and stop pretending if not this nation will be doomed in the nearest future
When a president from the three major tribe is the president..forget it you won't see a united protest from the masses...endsar protest the north didn't participate because their son was the president
Now with the hell we have been subjected to still no protest will happen because a son from a major tribe is the president( tinubu)...same thing will also occur if igbo man is the president

The only time we can see a united protest is when a minority tribe becomes the president...take for example subsidy removal of Jonathan in 2012...the whole nation united and there was protest despitethe cheap and low cost of things...lets stop pretending...

I don't like tribalism but you made so much sense. It's true. It's easier for the big three to unite against a minority president than for the country to unite against a president from any of the big three. So unfortunate. That's the tragedy of Nigeria.

The legendary EMI studios, Lagos. Chief Stephen Osita Osadebe of blessed memory recorded most of his albums with EMI. My father told me about the memorable experience he had with the EMI director then at the People's Club hall, Owerri road, Onitsha in the 70s when Osadebe came with EMI to perform for the music lovers in Onitsha.

As usual with top estates in Anambra, no good road network. You will see houses and mansions in an estate with dilapidated mud road network. The estate members hardly cooperate unlike in Lagos where landlords cooperate to build estate roads. In Anambra, every body in the estate, especially the rich will be forming " I don't care" attitude. I haven't seen any estate in Anambra with well tared or paved roads.

Ibadan is a shithole compare to enugu. The most beautiful city in naija.

What has Ibadan got to do with the post? I hate your kind of people on Nairaland, always thinking that everything is about unhealthy competition, envy, tribalism and insults

Afe Babalola, 60 years! Did I hear this correctly? I thought this man should be up to 80 years. This 60 years can't be correct.

The perpetrators are from his inner circle. Leave the Alfa story; it is a distraction. He is an Engineer and must be into real estate, land and building. Lots of people have lost their lives on top land and property struggles, and not honouring agreement. Real estate business in Nigeria is becoming too dangerous because of presence of conmen and swindlers.

Gadafii:
But these soldiers are well kitted compared to our dear NA

This is what annoys me about the Nigerian army and other paramilitary forces. They don't kit like other armed forces that I see and watch in other countries, including African countries. Is it that we can't acquire these top gear wears for our security personnel, at least for them to look gorgeous or what?

This is a good policy if well implemented. Some people in the informal sector with turnover running into millions pays next to nothing in taxes while a young Man earning peanuts in the formal sector consistently pays taxes.

It is also good as VAT is an indirect taxation and the burden is on the final consumer. Nigerians should start paying their fair share of taxes to see if we could improve our collective situation the same way Oyibo people have done. However, government has to be sincere and shun corruption and corrupt tendencies, especially in official quarters.

Hello guys, I'm trying to apply to a school in canada and their requirements are B English 12, math 10, anatomy and physiology 12, chemistry 11 and MOA 155... please what is the Nigerian equivalent for these?
I'm so confused. Don't want to waste my time applying if I do not have the requirements.

I am sure you are trying to apply for diploma in practical nursing. The equivalent is your Nigerian SSCE in Maths, English, Biology, Chemistry or Physics at a minimum of credit level. However, having credits in those subjects is not a guarantee for you to get the admission. Practical nursing is very competitive! Good luck

Ogene001:
Infrastructure without human development.

Very apt!
For these people, development means nothing to them. The quality of human beings inhabiting the space in this country is terribly low.

The policy may sound good.

We should desist from praising things we do not know how it would impact the economy.

The summary is that businesses would have to spend more to import - what is the implication of this? of course, high cost and things would become more expensive. Government have been subsidizing foreign exchange for importers to make their goods cheaper because Nigeria is a poor country.

Nigerian students studying abroad would have to pay more as the cost of FX becomes even higher. FX is going to be expensive.

Tinubu and his administration would be closer to Jonathan than Buhari.

They will relate more with GEJ than PMB.

They have seen the kind of character the man is - the monumental corruption that would be exposed under Buhari would be mind-boggling. Tinubu should not spare the key actors in that administration.

Jonathan was the only head of state during Tinubu's inauguration, which shows that Jonathan holds no beef with any one. Trust me, Buhari will not be attending National Council of State meetings or attend Tinubu's second term inauguration in 2027.

Tinubu will mess him up with exposure - Emefiele will tell it all.

Emiefele will be the Dasuki of Buhari's administration.

HBD to you sir. You were a marvel to watch when we were growing up as kids in the 80s.

You brought families to sit down together in their living rooms and watch your comedy.

8:30pm-9:00pm was always looked upon after our heavy night meals of eba and soup.

My dad used to be your biggest fan, always trying to mimic you.

God bless ""Eddie Qansa"", the composer of the music used as sound track to commence your program on television.

The guitar intro of that music is out of this world.

I feel like beating a hell out of this guy - mumu man - typical of some Nigerian youths.

But see the force and anger wey oyibo take arrest the guy

This one na straight to ten years in prison and deportation to Nigeria after that.

MIT is not an Ivy League university.

There are schools that are not members of Ivy league but they have surpassed some ivy league schools and are highly rated.

Stanford and MIT are not members of ivy league but they are highly ranked than some ivy league schools.

Between Stanford and Dartmouth College, which one will you take, even though Dartmouth College belongs to Ivy League clique? Certainly, Stanford!

I am beginning to see Nigerian citizens as the worst and most wicked. See how people are attacking her based purely on political divide. Some people attacking her cannot even agree to pay N1000 tax assessment.

When properly computed, sometimes, taxes paid are not directly related to income earned. She is a celebrity and most of them always present an aura of affluence and wealth, which may not be real.

Those shouting she should pay should asked themselves how much they have paid on their own earnings. Hatred and political divide have made the citizens not to be objective in their thinking.

Nnewi is the most disorganized, chaotic and polluted town I have ever seen. Yet, billions of naira are exchanged in deals and markets in that place monthly. The town with the highest concentration of self-made billionaires. The city is simply too archaic

Honestly, Atiku should take Obi and Kwakwanso to court

Na dem spoil show for him. I knew that Obi would never win even in a free and fair election. His support base were not sufficient to pull off victory for him. Atiku also made mistake by dropping Obi as his VP. He should have convinced him to remain in PDP and go for rematch with APC in 2023 as they did in 2019. Politics as they say is a long game.

2023 election was Atiku's best chance. He just wasted it. He could not even reconcile his G-5 members - a whole unifier!!!

Please they should let BAT be - the election has been won and lost - it is now time to set the economy on the part of growth. No distractions please.

I hope this your story is true.

Being out of job for two years and suffering and, all of a sudden, landed a GM position in a subsidiary of a multinational pharmaceutical company

Do you know how multinationals operates or hires?? You must have grown through the ranks or hired from the competition as a performer.

Anyway, what do I know?? If you really got the subsidiary of the multinational company's job on merit, you should not be asking this question. It is a place for growth, learning and career advancement.

All the best!

Yes, he worked for Amaechi during the APC primaries but worked for Tinubu during the presidential election.

He was aiming for the vice presidential ticket with Amaechi but sadly, Amaechi lost woefully to BAT.

Yet, the stupid DPR people are going about shutting down other filling stations. Even the government own is selling above the normal price.

It is not about Tinubu o - let nobody bring Tinubu to this matter - all the three main candidates supported subsidy removal.

Christistruth03:
The man is the owner of Oduduwa University and he has a Polytechnic too

He is the fourth highest ranking Chief in Ile Ife

He is an Ife Prince who even contested for the Ooni position

He is a very big fish

I doubt if this man would have been convicted by the court if not because of Falana. He did a good job for the plaintiff. I wonder the fate of that university and his other businesses. People will run from that university.

horgarzer:
Unfortunate bro, this hotel is in the heart of Ile Ife, not a low profile hotel as you have said. This man should be among the top 10 wealthy sons of the soil

Are you serious I thought it was a budget hotel. Ritualist at night; philanthropist at day. I wonder what people gain by being a ritualist.

I don't like all those low cost or budget hotels. They are ritualist den. I rather go somewhere and sleep than sleep in low budget hotel when I am not sure if I would be able to wake up the next day.

Sir, may you succeed. Wishing you all the best. Sorry o, I have stopped praying for Nigeria. Prayers doesn't work for our politicians. We should do the right thing and get things done using our God given wisdom.

Delightsome2023:
thanks so much.
how much please and is it tablet or syrup?

It now comes in tablet form.
30 tablets in a container which costs around N4500 per container

Delightsome2023:
do you have any idea if supradyn makes someone gain weight?
Heard one of its side effect is swelling
How much is it?

That's not true. Supradyn has been my multivitamin supplement since 1991. My father gave it to me for the first time when I was heading to boarding school in 1991. It used to come in capsules then.

It doesn't make one to gain weight. It helps the body to get the necessary nourishment that regular foods don't give and restores energy. You also use it when you are recovering from sickness.

Kai Kai kai

For once, I am seeing Nigerians United under one common cause to take down on one common "enemy". E don be for the guy. See how people are dragging him up and down. I pity him wife and family. Nigerians no get chill.

Meanwhile, the home secretary in UK just announced the stoppage of dependent visas as from January 2024. International students can no longer bring in their spouses and children. Though not because of Tiamiyu's comments but it helped to buttress the earlier held view about international students and Nigerians, especially.

Stupid guy!! I don't understand this ish with Nigerians. Always trying to make a mess of their fellow countrymen before other nations. What was he trying to achieve by making those comments??
