TravelRe: If Nigerians Are So Smart, Why Isnt Nigeria Developed? by gaventa: 12:41pm On Oct 05, 2019
Kindly mention one country in this category and please juxtapose its govt interference with its underdevelopment too
thebosstrevor:
Most countries with full government interference in all activities arent developed, central planning is dangerous to development,

Government interference lead to low economic output, people will lack the incentive to work.

God bless you 90% of this haters don’t even know him personally, they just read rubbish on here and use that to start raining abuses. If the federal government see something bad about NURTW it would have been scrapped long ago. So what’s the fuss about abi na everybody go to school for this life.[quote author= post=82826963]This is the man that ALL his children studied and are schooling abroad.
A man that the education of his kids is paramount to him and was just few weeks ago invited and honoured by the Governor of Atlanta, Georgia based on the best graduating result of one of his sons.

And many of the fathers of his haters that say bad things about him all the time, have never been invited by their Local Government or Ward Chairman because of them!
Pathetic!

If you want to quote us, quote us with the picture of popsy celebrating your success with your Ward chairman pls.[/quote]

My own is, I won’t judge but a man of God shouldn’t be so attached to flashy things, it makes you vulnerable to Sin and lust. You mnget money and no fit ever get money reach adeboye and kumuyi na. It’s normal to look good but as a man of God if the spiritual welfare is truly important to you, you won’t attach importance to things if the world such as making obvious your Gucci bag and Rolex in a picture or positing that new whip you just got.

shocked

This 'gospel' has really suffered. Not the same gospel Jesus left on his way out of this world; the power of God unto salvation for everyone that believed. I do not know if it is the same gospel that was recieved by John .G Lake, John Wesley, Smith Wigglesworth, Charles Finney, Katherine Kurma, Aimee Semple McPherson, Oral Roberts, etc.

Men who will lay hands on a crippled horse and it will run again, turn an entire Azuza street into tongues of revival and fire, carry deadly pathogens with bare hands and the organisms will die instantly, heal an entire village of smallpox through the power of faith. Hospitals and wheelchair services were closed up in locations they stayed.

A certain man while traveling stopped by a town in Ireland. He walked into a restaurant and ordered for a bottle of beer. The waiter laughed and said, a certain man named Charles Finney had a revival in this town 100 years ago and to this day, not a single alchohol has been sold in the town.

Have you met him before? Do you even know MC in person or its what you read that influences your judgment. Compare Oshodi of the 90’s to Oshodi it now and I hope you say the truth. If oluomo was a Thug then I don’t think oshodi would experience such Change it has undergone. MC oluomo won’t even allow his boys take alcohol where he is. I don’t have to tell you anything, the fact that I know him personally is why I don’t have to argue with you.

This is just the justification of the looting and destruction act. We can’t eat our cake and have it. For those saying Nigerians will lose more they are just daft and bunch of hypocritical and clueless cowards. Even South Africans burnt buildings where foreigners sold to show you how much they wanted them to leave.
juvewalex:
If care is not taken , this may just be the beginning of losses for mtn investors .

Nigeria will lose yes, but mtn will lose most . It will be better for mtn to speak to its home country to provide enabling enviroment for other nationals in South Africa for business and security purposes.

I am not sure you are following the news, did you even notice the steps taken but the FG now that they knows Nigerians have gone bizzare. For years we have been mature with our responses but where does it lead us and just one reprisal attack now they are responding Immediately, I am concerned about Xenophobia not corruption bro
emae009:
sometimes you make sense other times you don't. So when you burn down MTN, SHOPRITE & MULTICHOICE the government will suddenly change like the National assembly will stop collecting fat cheques or the government will stop collecting kickbacks from contract they award because you burn down buildings? Worst case scenario they'll jail the people that spearhead the destruction of these properties or look for something else to divert the attention of the youths. When other countries wanted a change in government they didn't burn down people's business. the grab the government by the loin

When fighting for a cause bro empathy is not to be considered. South Africans burn down buildings owned by their brothers just because they are tired of foreigners. Can you eat your cake and have it. You are ready to pass a message this delicate to foreign investors and you talk about people who have jobs, which is more important the lives of foreigners or the jobs of those of us herehuh Other countries are doing same don’t you see that is the ink approach? The government should be proactive next time. You don’t blame the mob for taking advantage of the sluggish and incompetence attitude of the government towards the whole incident. Thugs, touts and urchins don’t know or care who owns what, they just want to rob and blame them not it all falls back to a bad economy. We shouldn’t worry about the symptoms rather we should attach importance to to the disease. The government is the latter while the mob is the former and the former shows when you have the latter which is the government. #FIXTHEDISEASE
emae009:
you clearly like beating around the bush. First SHOPRITE buys from local suppliers. when you shutdown SHOPRITE what happens to the local suppliers?? SHOPRITE exist in other African countries. Secondly, you shutdown MTN Nigeria. what happens to their Nigerian workers and those that have affiliate business with them?? MTN still exist in other African countries. Thirdly, MULTICHOICE is shutdown, what happens to their Nigerian workers and those with affiliate business with them? these are all Nigerians that you'll be making to suffer because you're defending Nigerians. if you don't see the irony in this I can't help it anymore. you're fighting for your brother by killing your brother.

CrimeRe: Nigerians React To Xenophobia Attacks By Looting South African Stores- CNN by gaventa: 3:34pm On Sep 04, 2019
Xenophobia Morning Brief

So, Nigerians have been attacking stores owned by South Africans in Nigeria and people are attacking them for it.

While these acts should be condemned, the narrative that Nigerians own these South African companies under franchise is an absolute lie.

Shoprite

The South African chain store is owned 100% by South Africa parent company and does not have any Nigerian as owner. What they do is approach the owner of a Mall (like Ikeja city Mall) and rent a space for their products. These products are sourced from local suppliers and foreign suppliers. However, once a local supplier delivers the goods to Shoprite, Shoprite is responsible for the safety of the goods and MUST pay the supplier should anything happen to the goods. So Nigerians are not affected.

However, the entire Mall is not owned by Shoprite, just the Shoprite store in the Mall.

MTN Nigeria

MTN Nigeria is not owned by Nigerians in whole. In fact, 85% of MTN Nigeria is directly owned by the South African company. MTN parent company own 76% while Stanbic IBTC (also South African) own 9%. The remaining are shared across many other organizations, including MTN cooperative society.

When MTN listed on the Nigerian Stock Exchange, the shareholders refused to let go of their shares for public purchase.

DSTV Nigeria

DSTV Nigeria is a franchise owned by Mr. Ogunsanya of Multichoice. However, all revenues of the company go to South Africa while DSTV Nigeria only submits quarterly budgets to run the DSTV Nigeria to South Africa. The only way DSTV Nigeria gets paid is in the area of selling decoders, dish installation and others.

This is not to promote violent but merely a piece of information.
SimSify:
Nigerians looting from fellow Nigerians..

Most of the shops looted in those malls belongs to Nigerians..

Some insensitive Nigerians has capitalized on this xenophobic acts to loot.. Not even to make a statement.. But to loot for personal gains.. This is quite bad..

Most of us are just Hypocrites..we condemn the acts in South Africa but rush to commit the same acts to our fellow countryman here..

Who are we fighting for.. Who are we fighting against..

Seems we losing around.. Pathetic lipsrsealed
BusinessRe: MTN Nigeria Closes Shops Nationwide by gaventa: 2:29pm On Sep 04, 2019
You sabi jare.even South Africans burn down the building housing foreigner business to show you that violence when at the extreme can never be constructive. Our govt has failed to act legally now the citizens will act illegally. Since 2014 we have been quite despite losing loved ones just one reprisal attack our own people who are cowards are spewing trash. Mtn has closed its outlets and DSTV too, this will send shivers down the spines if other foreign South African investors. They will caution their govt.
