BigDawsNet:
If Government can print money


Then why are we paying taxes?!?

Taxes are paid from actual economic activities. Before you pay tax, you must have carried out an economic activity.
But government just printing money to meet its needs will eventually make too much money to be in circulation, this will lead to crazy devaluation and inflation. Soon you'll need a full Ghana-must-go bag of naira to buy a loaf of bread.

Taich:


I am sure Aldi and Co can save the day, except if they source locally for their goods. The moment you buy anything not made in Nigeria, that more pressure against the Naira

We've been buying things not made in Nigeria before APC.

Buhari borrowed so much with nothing to show for it. Now they are saying debts service gulps 70% of dollar outflow in Q1, they are even depleting our foreign reserve to service debt, this is one major reason the naira is losing value.

Meanwhile, the government has not stopped the borrow FX for frivolities habit. I'm not surprised, Tinubu did say he'll continue from where Buhari stopped.

Through forensics? Not all though in fact it's only few that the cause of death is figured out through forensic investigation. Many causes of death have still not be unknown for years.

You're right, the reason I used "could".

The best the society can do for the bereaved now is a thorough investigation, hopefully she tells one last tale.

Looks like a hit and run. But it may be a case of black voodoo, you know the craze by these gen Z kids to get "rich quick syndrome"

But from my forensic knowledge, looks like she was carefully laid there by some unknown humanoid. Whatever happened prior to her been dump there would definitely be so gory and horrible.

Dead women tell no tales!!!




A dead body could tell one last tale!

lexy2014:


what makes you think that Sanwo-olu saw your comment on nairaland?

so the government of Tinubu decided to remove fuel subsidy because he claimed that it is too expensive.

then after removing it, the same Tinubu and state governors are pretending to be spending billions on palliatives to cushion the effect of removing fuel subsidy.

pls what is the economic sense in that?

how is this never ending palliative now different and better than the fuel subsidy they said they removed?

The most annoying part is he's still paying fuel subsidy.

Lolz. Only an ignoramus will not expect the current economic quagmire anytime that the subsidy on fuel and forex was to be removed. Tinubu has my respect, he stuck to his words and promises. Buhari said "what is subsidy?" before his election, just like Obi and Atiku. But he backed out and left the mess for his successor.

Tell me something, has he stopped paying fuel subsidy?

Politics / Re: If Kids Can Defend Their Families in Mexico, Why Can’t Nigerians? - Adebayo by franconian: 3:24pm On Jan 28
Vocalessence:
What gives most criminals the audacity to attack people is because people are defenseless. But one thing I am scared of is people abusing that privilege. Someone might just be frustrated and just decides to kill just to vent.

My opinion, each state should run it's own police and the community where you live operates it's own security personnel (more like vigilante) which is in 24/7 contact and synergy with the state police. That way, familes would be safer than every family owning a gun?

Let's push your business to a new heights. I'm a voice over artist with the magic voice. Dm for bookings.

Armed vigilante in synergy with the police is actually a very good move to curb insecurity. I have witnessed this worked.

Yes they mentioned. They said after 6 million barrels of crude have been received, they would start. Currently, they've received 4 million barrels.

Ok, let's hope it starts soonest.

GeneralDae:

[b]So why are they receiving crude if it's not about to start? Is it for show off? and why would they spend 19 Billion dollars, only to show off? If the Indians are hoarding information from the Nigerians as said by the post you quoted, then how did the Nigerians there come to the conclusion that it's 2025?

Since they've been receiving crude, have they mentioned when they'll start production?

If truly they are hoarding info, it's from the general public. Those working on the project know what's up.

Someone I know who works there was telling me yesterday that the refinery is still under construction, saying the refinery will start working optimally in 2025 and that the Indians who are the managers are hoarding information from the Nigerians I was flabbergasted 😭

I got exact same info 2 days ago from an insider. No wonder those foreign financial organizations don't factor in local production of fuel when predicting the state of our economy for 2024.

This is a case of a hungry man who planted rice and corn on his farm. A week later people start complaining that he is still hungry in spite of the farm and seeds planted.
I hope you know that policies are like seeds planted. They need time to nurture and grow.

LoL, We see how Buhari, Tinubu and APC plant seeds since 2015 wey dem they borrow borrow money to nurture yet seeds nor gree bear fruits... Maybe na pepper fruit dem plant.

Tinubu don enter, una don start to dey plant seeds again while country dey hard more more for citizens. Politians wey dey plant seeds nor wait for their seeds to bear fruits before spending billions on SUVs, foreign trips and unnecessary renovations. Make una dey get small shame abeg.

Na him ooo... Na that interview I first take know or hear anything about the guy but If I was an undecided voter, based on that interview alone I will vote against the guy.

How can you go and beat someone up during a live radio program because the person said something you don't like? The way he was vehemently defending the rubbish was hilarious. The guy na Agbero I swear.

I went for collection last week, I was surprised that the crowd is nowhere as large as it used to be. They do things faster now... I got there around 11 AM and was looking for the usual long queue outside the compound but was told to go in. I submitted my slip immediately. Finally collect around 1:30 PM. Before I used to spend the whole day there only to be told "it's not ready".


I think the new person in charge is putting them on their toes, after sometime it may be business as usual. You should try to renew now before them scatter everything again.

What nonsense are you saying here?

All he is pointing out here is that most low carder police personnel needs good training to function well for the betterment of the society.

I usually wonder the kind of brains most of you here are made of.

With the way he took it personal, he's probably one of them.

I'm talking about the actual people that voted tinubu.

How can someone wake up and vote tinubu?

The day we change our mentality, that's the day Nigeria will be better.

There's no way anyone will contest an election under a ruling party and not get votes. The problem is in our electioneering process and the politicians. Until we begin to have free, fair and credible elections, we'll continue to have cases of losers being declared winners.

No be the same people vote tinubu?

We deserve what we get till we're ready to really wake up.

Saying the people voted Tinubu is not true and unfair to the people. Even with all the magomago by INEC, more people voted against the ruling party, about 2/3 voted against APC. It's clear the people no longer want APC. But the people lost because of INEC, thuggery, and most especially that stupid PDP. At of the 4 major contestants, 3 were in PDP just yesterday... Two decamped just before election and inevitably split their votes.
