I agree with the prof. I don't see anything wrong in spraying someone cash at a party. What negative impact does this act have on the economy. Misplaced priority by EFCC.

There's no miracle that can save Nigeria with our (both the leaders and the led) mindset. Economically we've been going down drastically since the civilian government of Shagari and the successive military regimes that came after him couldn't reverse the trend. Even with the advent of this Republic starting with Obasanjo's second coming the economy is still on the downward slope. The fundamental problems are there but our leaders are not ready to face it squarely. We are a country with very low productivity,many able bodied men and women are jobless but they have to feed and this makes them to resort to crime. Politicians in position of authority are less concerned about the situation because the resources from oil is okay for them to live ostentatious lifestyle which is at variance with sufferings of the people they are supposed to help find ways out of their predicament by formulating policies to stimulate job creation, conducive business environment, investment in agriculture and food security. Most of us erroneously believe it is the business of government to put food on our tables and this is the reason why we fail to think outside the box to engage in productive activities for sustenance. Even if we have change of regime today, it will still be the same story of "we've never had it so bad". No regime has been better than it's predecessor in terms of the economy. From N3.50k per litre of petrol in 1999 to to today's staggering price of between 600 to 800 naira as successive regimes raised pump price in view of economic realities of the time. The worst days are not here yet

NNPC isn't the sole importer of petroleum products in Nigeria, there are other licensed importers of petroleum products but due to subsidy on petrol by FG through NNPC's "under recovery" scheme, it's not profitable for these companies to import petrol but they still import other petroleum products like diesel and aviation fuel (jet A1).

Nepal has the most dangerous and challenging terrain for air navigation, a mountainous country with airports surrounded by mountains. Lukla airport in Kathmandu on my mind

I even heard Trump said he won't debate Kamala. Trump can take Biden to the cleaners but Kamala will be a hard nut for him

Either Dangote import crude or get from NNPC, when he starts rolling out petrol, the pump price won't be less than 1k except FG sustain the subsidy regime. The battle is between a capitalist and corrupt offials at the helm in NNPC. The only advantage Dangote offers is the local production of petrol products which offer employment opportunities and reduction in foreign exchange wastages in importing fuel. While the petrol subsidy corruption will be eliminated in the NNPC, Dangote will be benefiting from subsidy payments from FG when his refinery begins petrol roll out. Diesel is around 1,200 but petrol is much less due to subsidy by FG. Both petrol and diesel should be almost same price if determined by market forces. At the end of the day Dangote will win as FG won't let an investment of 20 billion dollars lie fallow to the advantage of shenanigans in the petroleum establishment

The so called servant leader

When they're supposed to align, they split. Now that they're losers, they find common ground. When the opportunity beckons again, their greed won't let them come together

Who shall we believe now? Dangote or NNPC

Crisis for not having power in 4 days, In my country it's a norm, we are used to not having power supply for days, weeks and months. It's a crisis if we have 24 hrs uninterrupted power supply, that's when we will be asking what's wrong with the power company

I hope the governor will actually do something on that road, the road is being threatened by a gully that is gradually cutting through the road at the Hercules section.

CAC should upgrade their portal, the online registration is frustrating. You hardly get feedback after paying for the name reservation. I have been waiting for 6 weeks to know if my name reservation is successful or not. They've launched the one day company registration but we are yet to see link to the portal

Take the numbers as per percentage to population and you'll see who has the highest murder rate in the south

From one speculation to another, Osimhen might not make it to any of the top clubs, he's either going to remain at Napoli or move to Saudi

Eboski:
Just take a look at Presidential debate, here in Nigeria our presidential candidates run from debate, don’t ask me which party , from 2014 till date the same party candidates has never 👎 attended any presidential debates in this country Nigeria, the results of their ruling is right in our eyes.

in 2015, Jonathan of PDP avoid debating Buhari. In 2019, Buhari of APC shy away from the presidential debate while in 2023 Tinubu of APC stay away from the debate while Atiku Abubakar of PDP in the last minute ditch the debate on learning that Tinubu who's his main opponent won't appear at the debate. So ditching the debate has always been the incumbent president either of APC or PDP avoiding being roasted at the debate due to their poor performance at the helm

This will still not justify their modus operandi of banging into hotel rooms kicking and slapping lodgers who offer no resistance to arrest, EFCC should be more professional in their sting operation conduct and respect people's rights. At the end of the day we will like to see how many of these suspects being paraded are eventually convicted

Kobojunkie:
Nonsense story! How did she die? Was it suicide and infanticide or what was it?

Did you read the story to the end? If you did, you would have known how she died.

If it's cheaper for the marketers to import, so be it. The downstream sector is deregulated and marketers should have options to either buy from local refiners or import, no one should be forced to buy from Dangote, if Dangote wants patronage it's prices should be reasonable

All na propaganda, when you fill a pothole on one road, that means the road is rehabilitated. Many governors are doing better than Otti but they ain't making noise on social media. The other day it's just a pillar of Julius Berger logo to commence a road construction and it's all over social media

Death is everywhere, what is justice in deliberately shooting another man dead and get just 5 years imprisonment. In America, a black man especially a black immigrant is more likely to be shot to death by an irate racist or cops than a white man

Probably a stranded or an already dead whale

hisgrace090:
We will soon enter into the season of this long tomatoes and once it's time tomatoes price will fall.
For now we are not in tomatoes season to say the truth.

I agree with you, most people don't know we ain't in tomato season, by end of June harvesting will begin and by July tomatoes will flood market thereby crashing the price. Relief will surely come before end of July

A kidnap well planned in advance, it's those who are familiar with the victims' routine that are behind this, police will surely get those behind this. Most likely insiders are involved

PaellaPaella:
Only a fool will share country with people of sad waste, hausas has never been the problem of this country, yaroruba is the problem, very deceitful and untrustworthy set of people with no dignity, spit

"only a fool will share country with people of sad waste", but here you are on their land in your millions sharing their space with them. I have never seen people so myopic as those Biafran separatists, imagine you guys granted your Biafran wish today, you will automatically become foreigners in that southwest and those opportunities as compatriots who can dwell and do business anywhere in the federation will be lost. It's only those who have nothing to lose are propagating this Biafra nonsense.

Those days, it's Ghanaian ladies that come to Nigeria for ashawo work, but nowadays the reverse is the case as our girls are being trafficked to Ghana for prostitution. While the Ghanaians that were into this hustle in Nigeria are matured grown up women, our own are mostly underage girls deceived into the trade in Ghana. This shows reversal in economic fortune/misfortune for both countries

ReubenE:
No

Its a Singaporean company

which Singaporean, they are Indians, Tolaram and Cherallam are owned by the Aswani family

The Indians are taking over Guinness, remember the Aswanis, there will be massive job loss due to downsizing and those staff earning big will now be paid peanuts, this is how Indians operate

But your parents can be healed of HIV. But I don't know if you are a Christian. Try this in one week and tell them to test again. You can help them since they are not strong.

Do 7 Days Midnight prayers for them. From 12:00 am to 2am. What should you pray about? But first tell them to repent and accept Jesus Christ. You also should do so.

Pray this for those seven days and hold same bottle of water for 7 days as you bless the water each day in the name of Jesus Christ.

EFCC have derailed

This story no clear…

If any body (an adult or a child) is chocking the 1st thing that should be administered is water … clean water

Is this the 1st time the four years old boy is eating meat

Meat has never killed anyone in a civilized country

Some years back I was choked by a big meat and was gasping for breath during a lunch at the canteen, I thought I am going to die that moment but thank God for the canteen woman that slipped her hand into my throat. It's a day I will never forget in my life. I had to be sent to the company hospital for medical evaluation as my colleagues who witnessed the incident inform my departmental head who thought I might have had an underlying illness. But when the result came out, I was given a clean bill of health, if not I would have been sacked then. It's possible one can be choked to death

The woman contractor is so powerful that the minister can't even disclose her name, somebody that should be named and shamed but in Nigeria as a big man/madam his/her identity has to be hidden. We ain't ready in this country

This isn't new, Obi swear then he'll never leave APGA then, but today it's history
