We are moving away from cash and carry economy to credit economy where one can easily own a product on credit and pay small small. Especially, buying house, car etc on loan with the expectation of paying back small small.
American kind of life style of borrow borrow make me fine.
Animals move? What about the herders directing the movements of the animals?
Or cow waka from their far Fulani north come Benue and other places with this mayhem by themselves?
I agree it's a political problem but las the military, Oga should make a move to stop these unnecessary bloodshed by herders.. oh, daddy forgot, he too must listen to Oga C-in-C of the "harmful forces"
Abegi...
You're the unintelligent one here. He is indirectly telling you herdmen should be banned from roaming about to perpetrate evil but you are here saying nonsense.
God1000: Political solution indeed, is that the reason you've abandoned the people of Benue, your job is to protect Nigerians from internal and external aggression and you have failed woefully.
Most of you just come here to criticize without given a superior argument or solution.
What he said is true. That's primary issue and it can only be addressed politically.
The terrorists attacked the police station first before while busy causing havoc.
This is a mastermind appraisal with support of some evil ones.
"....with at least eight teams showing concrete interest in the Napoli striker in recent weeks"
Not all the clubs' expression of interest came in same time period. Some may have been 1 week ago, another 2 weeks back. Or another couple of or several days back.
Wow! That a relief to know Chelsea is still showing interest. We are tired of Michael Jackson and the Delpa is not an elit Striker.
TheSuperNerd: Man Utd ‘far behind’ in Victor Osimhen transfer hunt as striker’s decision timeframe emerges
Victor Osimhen continues to attract strong interest from many top European clubs, with at least eight teams showing concrete interest in the Napoli striker in recent weeks, TEAMtalk can confirm – but one of two certainties about his decision-making process has put Manchester United far away from pole position.
Osimhen enjoyed last season on loan at Galatasaray, where he scored 37 goals from 41 appearances. It was the highest-scoring season of his career, which means he remains a highly attractive option for a lot of clubs looking for a new striker ahead of his return to Napoli.
A breakdown in relations with Napoli – where he previously scored 76 goals in 133 appearances – led to his temporary spell with Galatasaray. But now, as his contract with Napoli approaches its final 12 months, Osimhen’s future is all to play for.
TEAMtalk can confirm that in addition to Galatasaray’s obvious desire to try and keep Osimhen on a permanent basis, seven other European clubs – including three from the Premier League – are interested in the Nigeria international striker.
Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal are the English trio keeping tabs on Osimhen, while Juventus, AC Milan, Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid are all also interested.
However, at this stage, there is no clear favourite. Osimhen is not in a rush to decide, as also demonstrated with the Al Hilal affair.
Osimhen recently rejected an offer by the Saudi Pro League side, who were willing to buy him from Napoli.
Now, the 26-year-old centre-forward wants to carefully evaluate each club’s sporting project, alongside the financial offers on the table.
Key Osimhen condition derails Man Utd
One key condition for Osimhen is playing in the Champions League – as revealed months ago. Because of this, Man Utd and AC Milan – neither of whom have European football of any variety on offer next season – are far behind in the hierarchy unless the player changes his mind in the coming weeks.
But that’s not all, there is another certainty in Osimhen’s future: no final decision will be made soon. That’s why it is even possible that Victor will start pre-season training with Napoli on July 15. This would give him more time to consider his future and the different opportunities available calmly.
Napoli, for their part, remain firm on the financial conditions for his farewell. That is, for non-Italian clubs, Osimhen can be signed only by triggering his €75m (£63.8m/$86.7m) release clause.
Meanwhile, for Juve (and possibly also for AC Milan, even if, as stated, it is an absolutely unlikely scenario at things stand) there will have to be a direct club-to-club negotiation.

Chelsea still in contact!!!? How true is this report? Na deja vu bi dis or na wetin?
Gucciboy: Exactly,Cole Palmer recording 8 assists from 84 chances is why Chelsea wants to sign another striker because one player can't carry an entire team for the whole season.
he would have gotten at least 20 assists if Chelsea had a better striker.
MakindeHassan: If Nigerian stadiums were generating money they wouldn’t be in the dilapidated state they are in. You’re mixing it with premier league stadiums that have events almost every weekend and fans pay hundreds of pounds to attend.
How many events does Nigerian stadium host? How much do they charge for tickets? How much was used to build the stadium and how many years before they break even.
Secondly, most airports run at a loss that’s why they are mostly government owned. If we make airports private very few Nigerian will be able to afford to fly.
Who told you stadium is not generating money?
The money generated are s..... so that's problem not stadium.
malali: $5B Oil-Backed Loan Is a Financial Suicide Pact
This isn't strategy. It's economic self-sabotage. Nigeria taking out another oil-backed loan-its only real revenue-generating lifeline-just to build non-revenue-generating infrastructure is like mortgaging your only kidney to buy a golden toilet.
1. YOU CAN'T BUILD WEALTH BY SELLING YOUR ONLY ASSET AT A DISCOUNT
Nigeria is pledging 100,000 barrels/day to repay a $5B loan. At $65/barrel (current rate), that's $6.5 million/day in exports gone-not reinvested, not taxed, just vanished to pay back a foreign creditor. And if oil drops further? Nigeria has to pump more to pay the same. That's a slave contract, not a financial instrument.
2. NON-REVENUE INFRASTRUCTURE IS A FANCY SINKHOLE
These loans are not being used for cash-generating assets. No toll roads. No export-oriented rail. No pipelines. Instead, we get white elephants: stadiums, airports, urban boulevards. All things that require foreign parts, foreign maintenance, and worse-no ROI. How do you pay back a $5B loan with a library or conference center?
3. IT'S MORTGAGING THE FUTURE FOR ELITE BRAGGING RIGHTS
What we're witnessing isn't nation-building-it's short-term optics for elite validation. A shiny new bridge, a "smart" capital city project, a photo-op at a ribbon-cutting. Meanwhile, the crude goes out, the dollars never reach SMEs, and youth unemployment stays a volcano.
4. NOBODY TRUSTS THE NNPC. BANKS AREN'T STUPID
Even the lenders are twitching. The deal is dragging because banks don't believe Nigeria can deliver the oil. Years of under-investment, theft, and pipeline vandalism mean that even if you wanted to repay, you might not have the crude to do it. That's financial leprosy.
5. OIL-BACKED LOANS = MODERN COLONIAL LEASEHOLDS
Let's call it what it is: a blood pact with Aramco. For a quick fix, Nigeria will now be offering oil not on its own terms-but under Saudi pricing, Saudi timelines, and foreign bank custody. It's the new digital oil plantation-except the masters wear suits and the chains are Bloomberg terminals.
Nigeria isn't leveraging oil to build wealth. It's bartering survival to build maintenance-intensive fantasies that generate nothing but debt, dependence, and press statements.
Who told you Stadium and airport don't generate money?
Napoleon55: I don't have power to engage on baseless arguments.
Real Madrid has more champions league trophy than your best 10 premier league clubs combined and u are here shouting "EPL is far and away the best league" If something is far and away better,it means it's better by considerable large margin, how is it so compared to La Liga and Serie a? If they are far better,they should be dominating every other clubs from other leagues whenever they meet.
EPL is considered best now does not mean it's going to remain so in few years to come,or that they were the best few years ago.
Real Madrid doesn't have more but has rather won equal numbers of Champions league trophy with EPL.
Ikaeniyan0: Work on the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway “The beginning of section one, as at today, about 15 kilometres by two carriage way on the average has been achieved, and at the end of the project at Eleko where section one stopped, about 5 kilometres has been achieved.
“So, the idea is by 25th of May 30 Kilometres continuously will be made available for Mr President to Commission from the beginning of section one down to kilometre 0 to 20,” Umahi said.
ChybuzzDD: Hope you saw men there guarding and watching over the fence? You think your Nigerian border protection officers who don't care what is happening at the borders now that they're unfenced with suddenly start monitoring them when they're finally fenced? You don't know that the fence can be breached or climbed if there are no guards monitoring it? You guys are so gullible!
Wetin dis wan they yan? After it is built, they will watch over it from the city fence.
