I agree my dear, but make dem sha increase am. Na dem cause the uselessness of naira.
And as they increase salaries, naira becomes more valueless and then the salary increment becomes insufficient.

Glo, Airtel and Ghost 9mobile should take the advantage of the Nigeria mobile telecoms imperial leader(aka mtn) by focusing on network improvement and slight adjustment or no adjustment at all
Network improvement, are you ready to buy a gigabyte at 100,000NGN?

That's not fair, MTN.

76% increment in one swoop is not fair
but supporting APC since 2015 is fair abi?

Not too bad. This is where we have found ourselves. One of my challenges was that the government found it difficult to double workers salary. If someone had told our fathers that a time will come when the whole salary earned by a government worker will not be able to buy a bag of rice they would never have agreed.
The more they double workers salary, the more useless naira become with the prices of commodities skyrocketing in the market.
Business › Re: 10 Biggest Commercial Banks In Nigeria By Market Value In 2025 by Gboss247(m): 12:43pm On Feb 14, 2025

There are lot of metrics to know if a bank is big or not but i will use total asset, customer base and also asset under management(asset they manage for clients

A bank's total assets are the sum of all its financial and nonfinancial assets. This includes cash, loans, securities, and reserves.

what is the customer deposit?, they are actually liabilities but then again, they are a source of liquidity for a bank.

the biggest bank in South africa SBG has $170 billion in asset while GTB, our biggest bank in Nigeria has $1.12b in asset

SGB has19million customers and manages more than $81b in asset, GTB has 32.8 million customers and manages $219m in asset

even if they naira was strong, SA banks will still be bigger because they have more liquidity and asset
Your may be right but has nothing to do with market capitalization which the stock price multiply by the number of stock outstanding. Nigerian commercial banks have the habits of frequently issuing through IPOs, right of issue and shares bonus to raise money which keep devalues shares value and reduce or stagnant their market capitalization.

The gorimapa head of the person that compiled this nonsense list is not correct.

Why is No. 6 and No. 8 duplicated with contradictory figures?

Or do you think this is your Facebook & WhatsApp groups where you just pull out figures from your anus & disseminate to the gullible public?

Anyways, I don’t believe any of these doctored figures from this nonsense compilation; because there’s no Corporation or Business in Nigeria that thrives without perpetrating one form of fraud or the other.

Zenith Bank is a good example. (Stealing & Diverting customers dividends & shares. Case in Point - Zenon Petroleum and Aquitane Oil & Gas both sued Zenith Bank for diverting their shares). And I know that ALL THE NIGERIAN BANKS are doing it.
Do you even know the meaning of market capitalization or you just advertising your emotions?

Op, Do u understand what economics was all about?
Come to think of it, what do u think dangote was doing to crash his petrol price again the once independent marketer import to Nigerian?

What do u understand when dangote deal with savanna sugar to favor his own dangote sugar?


What do u understand when dangote did his underground work with President OBJ then to withdraw all licenses of some cement company like ebeto cement, Ashaka cement. Uncem cement etc to favor dangote cement.

Op, what do u understand by competitors B4 I speak fourther with u instead of wasting my precious time here with u.
Long article with no point, a simple internet search would have help you. Dangote refinery reduces petrol when global oil prices dropped with FG defending the naira with $1.1 billion loan from AFDB while importers received heavy subsidy on imported petrol secretly.

That's great, competitive market is good.

Please guys, I bought this fuel yesterday into my car and also bought into keg to be used for generator.

Upon my trying to dispense into the gen, please view what I saw, doesn't smell like fuel and very reddish like all those fruity juice.

I had to pour some into this small plastic to be able to ascertain what I bought into my car and already pour into my generator.

The NNPC retail outlet is at.....along Airport Road, before SARS Junction after Obirikwerre roundabout. Port Harcourt, Rivers State.

Is this what you get NNPC when you blend fuel?

I just want to be assured that my car engine is safe as well as my health and ofcourse my generator engine.

This is absolutely unbelievable.

It doesn't have any smell of petrol at all.....

@NNPC retail outlets.....
Keep entertaining yourself with competition while Tinubu teaches you hard lesson

Nigeria is about the only country where prices get increased anyhow and anytime without the masses doing anything, in some clime a little increment in the price of any essential commodity receives corresponding reaction from the people, but in Nigeria we all grumbly accept everything which is why our leaders are taking us for granted.
Nigeria is the only country where citizens support bad government because of tribal and religious affiliation and expect good governance.

PBAT should please do something about this sudden surge in prices of goods,commodities and services.. how do Telcos expect Nigerians to cope with 200% increase in prices of data bundles?. Those with online jobs and even SMEs who depend on data won't find it funny atal.
Soon you'll have to pay #150 to get #100 airtime on your line. This is not good atal, Government should sit up and look into this matter else Nigerians won't continue with APC in 2027.
This is part of the reason for high crime rates across the country when people have nothing left to feed on.

Just Google search China iron dumping strategies in Europe.


It's simple economics
If you understand simple economics, you should known that Chinese products will always cheaper than European due to euro been more valuable than yaun. For this reason, Europeans research, develop, design and obtain a patent to their products and outsource it to China for manufacturing. Then, import the finished products at cheaper and sell to the world to make profits while African countries do the opposite.

So subsidy should come back then? Because a barrel of crude is not sold differently anywhere in the world! Even if we have 100 refineries the prices can't go lower than they should be except govt is subsidizing or dangote n likes decides to buy, refine and give it freely to Nigerians! What happened to the secret subsidy that you are enjoying on imported petrol?

How much was naira to a dollar when your beloved PDP took over the reigns in 1999? Let me help you. It was #26 naira. By the time they got kicked out it was #216. That’s a percentage change of 731%. Meaning it X 7 in the PDP era, despite subsidy.

APC has done 640% despite floating. It’s equally bad but not comparable. Leave politicking asides, by that simple maths the # will be about the same amount it is now if the PDP remained in power despite subsidizing.
Your so-called floated naira is defended with loans from multilateral organizations and the recent appreciation is cause AfDB $1.1 billion loan

That is what many people don't understand. I don't even see the adjustment in rice by Dangote as a price war with anybody. Since crude prices have dropped by 4 dollars, it is only natural for the price of PMS to drop as well. Once crude prices and the exchange rate goes up, prices will be adjusted to suit the prevailing forces as well
Logical reasoning is rocket science for an average Nigerian

COMPAQ:
Newspapers just generate sensational headlines to sell papers and generate clicks for online advertisements.

There is no price war raging anywhere! So reducing price from N950 to N890 (N60), when crude prices had fallen back from $82 to $75 and Naira had appreciated from N1600 to N1480 is tantamount to price war abi?

The way we like to use 'crash' and 'price war' and all these big words for N50 decrease ehn!!!

You will see some headlines, 'naira tumbles in market'. Then you read the story and the naira just fell from 1590 to 1600!!!!
An average Nigerian operates by emotions which the political and media community utilizes effectively to maximize profits.
