No wonder they didn't want the North African man ref. Maybe he saw what we didn't see.

Goke7:
Iwobi needs to go out, SA script all over again

I think they should be replaced now that we are leading.

codemaniacs:
Chuks is not defending which is making Aina's wing porous..

He needs to be replaced because the wing is weak.

What a goal

Iwobi and Chucks are not in this game. They need to up their game.

Samueltemi337:
Stop lying to yourself

What lie? Maybe the pressure didn't allow you to see the chance or na blind love. I could still remember the perfect cross Aina delivered to his head. He missed.

Odunayaw:
E be like say I don forget. I'd check.

Anyway I'm hopeful the goals come today

Make we pray we don't waste chances today.

We also need to pray we create chances too.

mrwilliams9:
Yes, because a bit after he missed the chance Moffi was subbed in for him.

That game was there to be won in 90 mins without the need for ET

No. He was subbbed after the defender catchup with him and kick the ball away. The same scenario Moffi utilized if not for the foul.

mrwilliams9:
My key point is the timing of the chance. One was 10 mins from 90, the other was in ET.

Lookman buries that chance and we go home at 90mins vs playing the full 120.

Look at it this way, had SA snatched victory at the dying end when they blazed over the bar, we’d be looking back to Lookman’s missed chance. Osimhen’s header would never have even occurred since it was in ET

Timing is very important in a match.

Was the header after regulation time?

Odunayaw:
Which one? He had only 2 in that game and none were easy

The 3rd one that got him replaced by Moffi nko?

mrwilliams9:
But his chance came AFTER lookman’s. In the order of operations, if Lookman scores the game is dead.

What about if Osimhen scored after his miss? The point is Lookman chance was not the only one that night.

Terem utilized his chance while Osimhen didn't despite the same situation.

It was after he missed that chance I posted here Moffi should replace him and fortunately he was replaced by Moffi.

mrwilliams9:
Lookman’s chance was far more clear cut. Osimhen missed headers, yes, but it wasn’t as clear cut a chance.

Osimhen header was also clear. He was not marked.

mrwilliams9:
Gbam! I’ve said it before. SE have created enough chances to win every game by at least 2 comfortable goals but we’ve been profligate.

That SA match should never have gone to PKs. That Lookman chance around the 80’ would have sealed the game easily.

We MUST take our chances.

Most of you only focus on Lookman's chance but refused to acknowledge Osimhen missed chances afterwards.

It's true. May his soul rest in peace.

This is not Ikare Kabba road.

Obinoscopy:
The government is just attacking the symptoms and not the disease. If the forex was not influenced by the government and if the naira is truly on free float, people will see no need to patronize the black market because the banks are giving the true rate of the dollar.

Imagine if you were a tenant and your landlord sells bottle water for 500 naira however an aboki outside sells the same bottle water for 100 naira. Will you say because you are a good tenant you will not patronize the aboki?

You can't force someone who works hard and earns some dollars (who is your "tenant" using my analogy) to buy your "bottle water" which is to convert the dollar to naira using the banks rate when he knows he can get a better rate with an aboki. That "tenant" will leave your country and it will affect your economy.

Free float is the way to go. However before you do a free float, make sure the country is a net exporter of goods and services.

In a sane society, aboki and those patronizing them should be jailed. It's illegal.

Cars are very expensive now.

jmoore:
A GUO motor was attacked, driver shot dead, passengers kidnapped. The incident happened between Ikare and Kabba. The bus was coming from Abuja.

There are reports that a little girl was left by the kidnappers.

Kabba - Ikare road? I know that route. Safest until this news.

Going to Lagos from Abuja through Ibadan is now dangerous. It's finished.

Tinubu is playing with fire. The early he restructures the country, the better.

lebienconnu:
This will work if properly enforced but my fear is that it can’t or won’t. I can make a trip to Benin republic to collect 3k dollars everyday. Of course, I will declare it.

Bringing money above 100dollars at the border must be prohibited.

Like you rightly said, it may not be enforced due to some corrupt law enforcement agencies.

Jeans601:
Bro stop wasting your time explaining anything to that kid abeg.

He is even so slow to understand wire transfer.

Honestly, speaking. He's too slow.

tsephanyah:
atiku would have been a better choice

Which better choice? Perhaps, for you.

vaxx:
Anyway ,let me educate you,they were spoils of the war. Though it belongs to the Ashanti Kingdom, they claimed it for themselves. Even the oyibos were conquered once before and spoils of war taken from them. In one or the other , the strongest rules.

Read about the ancient wars bruh.

I know but that's it. If I were president, they must pay for intruding.

lebienconnu:
I am not an economist so I stand to be corrected.

Remittance from the diasporans is a major source of dollar supply. Gong by the simple law of demand and supply, I see Naira falling more against dollar and other currencies if this source is tampered with like being considered.

People will get their dollars from western union and other IMTO agents in neighbouring countries like Benin republic and come back to sell in Nigeria at a much higher rate.

If the above is true then I quite agree that is a trial and error policy and that a woeful failure awaits it.

You must declare the amount of money with you at the border. If you don't declare but found with currency, it shall be seized then you ho to jail for 3 months. If tjis is enforced, nobody dares to usurp the law.

ivolt:
Not even Cardoso has made this claim.
Outside of Aboki's dealing in dollars and occasional online shoppers.
Nobody goes to banks to deposit dollars.
It is even worse right now, since withdrawal and transfers have been banned.
The "saboteur" are the ones who imported the phone, cars, electronics and every other
foreign manufactured items in your house.


What you
This is quite entertaining.
Yes, speculators exist

So, you are dead wrong by insinuating turning dollar to naira in the domiciliary account will kill economy. It will rather reduce pressure on naira because you will not be given dollars. It does not stop you from making electronic transfer to pay in dollars outside the country.

If you want to pay foreign school fees, go to your bank and process the money which is in naira to pay in dollars online through the Nigerian bank straight the foreign bank in abroad. Fortunately, we have many Nigerian banks in U.K and other countries.


Nope.
The schools aren't desperate.
They are not the one lying about proof of funds.
So, if a school say the US accepts your Naira, what will it do with it?


So, the changers at the airport of your destination will collect your super Naira and give you dollars for what reason?


Aware of what exactly.
You think there is any entity out there who needs your Naira apart from Nigerians.
If anybody agrees to swap any currency for Naira, it either has a way of investing the Naira
back into Nigeria or has a means of converting it for profit.

So, a traveler from the US came to Nigeria and changed its dollars at the airport but when going
back you insist they go back with Naira so that they can exchange it magically in their native country .
You see how ridiculous you sound. Perhaps other countries are desperate for Naira, they are going
to starve if they stay away from Nigeria or Nigeria sanctions them.


I replied you because you are so ignorant that is nauseating and some people might actually think
you know what you are talking about.
At this age, only a financially illiterate person will be looking to be given dollars like some beggars looking for alms.
You see, banks don't drive bullion vans to people's home to give them dollars because they ask.

Here is how the market works.
In the Buhari era were some items were banned. You simply apply for the dollars you need
if you have legitimate needs e.g traveling. It could take weeks or months.
And for the major consumer of dollars, the importers, they are not given dollar cash as you imagined.

It is even easier these days because the CBN no longer keeps a banned item list.

Now, go back and read the fantasy you put up there and try to reason how it will solve the dollar deficit issues.

The fact you claim NOBODY deposit dollars into DOMICILIARY ACCOUNT has rendered your gibberish write up as your personal insinuation.

Who told you? Where did you get the statistics from that nobody deposit money into domiciliary accounts?

I deposited money into domiciliary account because I wanted to spend it abroad last year.

I still know many people still with domiciliary accounts.

Besides, the CBN reports of 30b dollars domiciled in domiciliary account has rendered your submission falsehood. You lied big time.

Who are the saboteurs? Electronic importers? Other foreign importers? Another goofy statement.

I imported cars last year and I can tell you, it's not profitable because by the time the goods lands in Nigeria after 3 months (depending on the country), the exchange rates has gone up.

Something you bought 2k dollars let say equivalent of 2m at the rate of 100naira to a dollar, but you have to raise 3m to buy 2k dollars for the same car you want to sell at the rate of 1500 to a dollar. If you add clearance, shipping, profit, how much do you want to sell the car fast?

Where is money to buy cars 8m car in this Nigeria?

Mr man, keep shut. Electronic, cars, phones, foreign goods importers are crying because they are lossing money. You're just a paper economic. You don't have any idea.

So, these are not the saboteurs but the ones who deliberately opened domiciliary account, buy dollars, kerp in the account and when dollar appreciates, run to BDCs to change into naira then buy dollars again and save in the account. These are saboteurs. Enemies of the state. They don't want to work but make fast money.

Nobody said school should accept naira. You're too slow to understand.

If you want to pay school fees, go to your bank and provide justification for the dollars, then provide the bank account of the beneficiary. The bank will wire the money directly to the foreign bank account and you get your receipt. Sefini.

If you need cash, get an atm. The bank will convert your naira to dollars and then you can use your atm to do any transactions in the world.

This is what people use to buy goods abroad. You're also oblivious to this. Mean, you no know anything. Na only mouth you get.

As a lover of tradition myself who believes in our african gods more than God of israel and that of mecca.

I welcome back our stolen items...

Asanteman yesterday converged on the Manhyia Palace in Kumasi for a grand durbar of chiefs to welcome back home some of the Asante artefacts that were looted 150 years ago.



Ashanti kingdom putting Ghana on the map

Oyinbo are wise sha!!. After stealing the artifacts and making billions from it, they returned the artifacts back without the money.

tctrills:
Oga I would try to educate you but I know you are a block head.
Now Total's onshore reserves are over 150 million barrels. At present oil price of about $70 per barrel, the value of their reserves is over 7 billion dollars.
Now they sell their facility at less than a billion dollars.
I am sure even a block head will understand this simple mathematics.

Where did they sell for lesser? Show me proof. Bloody liar.

cucumbar:
Dey play.. which laws Dey to check dem?
Some of you will never get sense in this life and in the life to come.

If you have, you would had known the new Petroleum bill passed into law but no.

tsephanyah:
If you people would have voted obi or atiku this wouldn't have happened.. but y'all voted tinubu the most corrupt politician ever. Someone that turned Lagos into his Piggy. Well, he is doing it with Nigeria. Thanks to ethnic and religion bigotry

What did Buhari do with his 8 years in office? Looting, embezzlement, etc.

That's why most of his cronies are billionaires.

He practically left nothing in the save. Sold off Nigerian crude oil in advance.

Peter Obi? Don't be fooled by what you are told about him.

His tenure as governor of Anambra state was nothing to write home about. It was full of terror, murder, injustice, nepotism among his own people, embezzlement, fraud etc.

Atiku? What does he bring to the table? An immigration turned billionaire? Hmmmmm!

He is one of ghe problem of this country. Learnt his American university has been dollarized.

Imagine!! School fees are paid in dollars. The school has no local rating not to talk of global rating.

Is tbst the person to run the country? He will only come in and favor....

Acidosis:
A simple Google search and a few minutes would save you this public embarrassment. For the sake of your children, go and study the HSE policies of Total Energy. I'm sure you won't find stuff like ransom for kidnapping, payment for bandits, weekly payment for community and asari thugs, and so on.

That total are angles that came to develop your country. Stop fooling yourself.

French companies are leeches. You don't have any idea.

Keep being deluded with total side of the story.

TheBillyonaire:
Any buyer that is not indigenous to Niger Delta will still run, cos it is not their home. Any Niger Deltan owned company that buys the stakes and does not clean up their places, we will visit their families and extended relates and teach them a lesson. They can not run away.

I am all for Equities being handed over to host communities with a clear road map and monitoring & supervision by the Feds.

Walter Smith is an indigenous company though but I don't know if the owner is from Niger Delta.

Acidosis:
This is the most senseless writeup I have read on this platform in the last 10 years.

Because you don't have 🧠 to process it. No my fault, you know.
