You are the one trying to misinform the public. INEC chairman clearly stated before the election that results won’t be transmitted real time to IREV from polling units and the story was reported by leading national newspapers like Punch, tribune and Vanguard. Links were provided on the thread that was moved to front page about the subject matter.

Lies from the pit of hell!

So how come national assembly results were uploaded in real time?

The electoral act clearly States that only results transmitted directly from polling units shall be collated!

So the promise or not, is immaterial.

People should please read section 64(4) of the electoral act 2022.

Most of these ideas are generally in the right direction…

But Nigeria shouldn’t “regularize” so-called “illegal refineries”…
They are toxic-spewing and environmentally disastrous, and we don’t want to encourage even more.

The full consequences (health, economic, environmental, etc.) of these “refineries” will become evident in time.
>

Legalising them would also imply prescribing minimum health and environmental standards applicable to all legal refineries.

They would have legal access to funding for environmental upgrades,etc.

How dare you merge customs,NIMASA and FIRS?

Orisirisi economic advisers

There are other revenue generating agencies and all of them should be FORCED to operate effectively and efficiently.

I propose Nigerian Revenue & Monitoring Commission(NRMC) that could serve as the "general overseer " of all revenue generating agencies,where all FG revenues are monitored and consolidated using high level technology.

The NRMC should have investigation and prosecution powers.

Centralisation of revenue sources could be very fatal!

What sort of thing are u saying. It was scarce because we are not earning enough. It's simply because of balance of payments deficit.

So when the rate floats dollar supply will improve right?

Not quite.

Floating is a better way of managing the scarcity of the dollar,rather than fixing the exchange rate.

In relative terms, floating would encourage more dollar inflow into the economy,because the exchange would be at market rate(comprising of willing buyers and willing sellers)

But if you fixed the rate,you might end up with so many excess demand from Willing buyers, but without Willing sellers,because of the unfavourably fixed exchange rate.

The alternative,for the excess demand, is the black market.

Ultimately, the supply side of the dollar can only be boosted by higher local productivity plus exports,and less dependency on imports.

imbless:
Many people in this forum is unintelligent and daft, y'all think you can buy dollar over the counter inside banks ? SMH!!
1. Naira has been devalued
2. Dollar is scarce because Nigeria is still importing more, and common sense should tell you that if a commodity is scare, and there's high demand for that commodity, the price will skyrocket,
3. Nigeria depends on nothing more than crude oil to bring in FX, our Reserves has depleted because mismanagement from previous government.

Now tell me how naira will appreciate?
Nigerians na who do una this thing?
Even some people you think is intelligent is daft!!
SMH!!

Your use of English does not suggest you are more intelligent than others.

Anyway, the logic behind the floating of the Naira,is for it to attain its natural market value,whether high or low,such that CBN would no longer further deplete our forex reserves,defending the Naira from falling.


The depletion of the forex reserves was boosted by the fixed rate regime,because CBN was supplying forex from the reserves,to meet up with the excess demand.

But when you float the Naira, the excess demand for forex ,would be automatically curtailed on a daily basis,no need for CBN intervention.


The more productive and less import dependent the economy becomes,the lower the demand for forex and thus the higher the value of the Naira.

It is a marathon race and not a sprint.

REDshouse:
Dangote refinery will never produce any fuel... importation fuel money swit pass production stress

Dangerous plausibility.

True talk.

You support and vote for a candidate of your choice,based on certain believes,qualities and expectations.

If the candidate fails to deliver, you can only the same candidate responsible and nobody else.

sapele914:
The idiot defeated Jagaban in Lagos like you rightfully claim, then turns around to say that the election was rigged, filled with malpractices?

The Apga Judas is just an egotistical Idiot. Useless Man wasting his time.

The best the court will give him, is yes there were some electoral malpractices, but highly insufficient to overturn the results of the election.

So how did someone that lost his base in Lagos and Osun,win in Rivers State?

Your arguments and those of others Lack both logical and sensibly reasoning.

The fact that Tinubu lost in Lagos does not imply that he did not rig in Rivers and other states, in criminal partnership with Wike and others.

Only someone with chicken brain would believe that Tinubu losing Lagos, means the election was free and fair ,in general!

niyisky:
Jagaban be teaching neophyte pol 103

Stupidity is when you agree that the leadership of a national assembly that is suppose to carry out oversight functions over the executives,including the presidency,should be influenced by the same executives.

Rubbish!

LesbianBoy:
I think there is something wrong with Nigerians.

Just like that they have forgotten that akpabio was involved in the "off your mic" Saga where billions were stolen yet see young people supporting him simply because tilumbu wants him there to deceive nigeria that their agenda to make nigeria a Muslim country is not going to happen. Chai

Imagine 4 muslims just 1 Christian

I support your anti corruption stance but not your religious stupidity.

Good initiative but my fear is "Ghost Students' Loan.

May God deliver Nigeria from corruption.

This same civil society fails to back fuel removal when Jonathan removed subsidy
We should stop deceiving our self
We are playing a politics of tribalism which is very bad

Nlc north and west stated that they won't join the protest 2023
This was same protest the whole nation and the nlc participated in during Jonathan and as at that time price of things were too cheap yet we entered the street and protested

The truth is this 2023 protest didn't hold because of tribalism
We should stop deceiving ourselves..we should look deep into our heart and ask this big question
If na obi remove this subsidy wetin for happen

Of course we all know the answer I swear protest for dey everywhere


The past is a stepping stone to the future...And since we're talking about the future, it is our present actions that shape it, and our present is heavily influenced by our past!

Stupidity is when you decide to remain stagnant.

So because they opposed fuel subsidy removal in 2012,they must oppose it in 2023 and forever?
I hope you and your likes ,would just stop this continual but nonsensical referral to 2012.


Rubbish!

Gullible Nigerians will never learn!

June is the peak of raining season,there is no remarkable rework of the electrical infrastructure to warrant sudden constant power supply.

It happened in June last year and after Buhari's inauguration in 2015, would continue for a while.

kingsways:
A president doesn’t have the power to remove the CBN Governor . I remember Sanusi said something like that

This is the first illegality from an illegitimate president.

It is not about what Sanusi said,it is what the law says.

The president cannot suspend or remove CBN governor without the National Assembly.This is a simple and very logical procedure to checkmate the excesses and corrupt tendencies of the president.

xpressionx:


You keep sounding stupid.

If LP sued INEC,is that not a good reason to allow the scrutiny?

Do not mind the guy.

INEC is in court to defend that the election was free and fair.

I wonder how that can be done by hiding or blocking evidence.

Rubbish!

What else do you expect?APC blood flows in their family na.

His elder brother Uche Ogah was a Minister of State for Mines and Steel Development in the APC led federal government.

The guy only capitalised on the LP popularity in South East, as a stepping stone.

AutoConsult:

You will shit on yourself las las😂😂

How many voted for Obi? 6.1 abi? So why the fuse? You don lose, getat already.

I want to believe you understand elementary English.

The fuss is that Tinubu was not overwhelmingly voted for,as you fraudulently claimed.

AutoConsult:

Oga make we hear word. Are the election results different from the ones later transmitted to the irev? Are labor party agents complaining they are different? Stop crying all over the internet and move on with your life. Your useless candidate has lost. We have our champ, who we overwhelmingly voted for. So freaking gedifok

"Who we Overwhelming voted for"

This your statement is as fraudulent as the election itself.

FACT CHECK

According to INEC,
Over 14million accredited voters did not vote for Tinubu,whilst only about 8 million voted for him,

The truth:

Tinubu only got the highest number of votes but definitely not the majority of votes cast!

Clowns.

FG should use savings on subsidy to pay workers who are of very insignificant percentage of the whole population of 200million.

Rubbish.

Savings on subsidy must be used for the benefit of all Nigerians such as providing infrastructure like stable power,roads,railways and an efficient mass transit system that will also accommodate the transportation of farm products.

Both the FG and its workers are working for the over 200million people of Nigeria.

opey112:
You said you remove subsidy you are still determining the price,why not give license to people that can import and let the market forces determine the price.......

This will happen very soon.

Doing that during the subsidy regime ,will take us back to the very dark and corruption driven ages.

kcprince:
The old depot rate included subsidy . Now nobody wants to subsidize it anymore hence the new price .

Correct.

oluwaseyi0:
when you are selling to Nigeria at 500 to 700 you didn't complain, now that you have to restuck at 480+ you are complaining, what are you expecting that they will keep selling to you at old price while you sell at new 500+ price?

I wonder oo

magoo10:
Interesting times ahead

can the courts also order oil marketers to revert to old prices of pms just as they ordered discontinuation of deadline for new currency notes.

You cannot use exparte court order to injure the other party or force the other party to part away with huge sum of money in the form of subsidy.Going back to old price means losses to the other party.

But Labour cannot lose anything by suspending the strike.

More so ,subsidy became illegal by virtue of the provisions of the Petroleum Industry Act 2022.

Escapist:
Hmm, won't this affect the election tribunal?

Of course yes.

Tinubu might eventually triumph based on technicality of time efflux.

Fake News!!!

sharpwriter:
His speech is brilliant and mostly offhand.... The man sabi book.

So you didn't see the blue coloured teleprompter he was reading from ,which also made his speech quite slow?

May God bless the hands of every Nairalander that felt renting a house for $150k is a waste of money.

And for those of us that quickly did the conversion, may God bless us to earn in foreign currency.

For those that would still want to form strong head and say I'd rather build my house than rent a house for that amount, may God elevate you to the level where paying that amount will be like paying this 700k that you're currently paying as rent.


While you're paying 700 to 1m as rent, your gateman too is seeing you as someone who is wasting money. In his mind, if I get this money wey Oga dey use pay rent, I for Don build my house since.

Life Na level by level...

Rubbish talk.

What can N700k to N 1M build?

Whereas $150k can build your own mansion.

The richest men have their own houses and they are wise investors and never will rent a house for $150k,except perhaps with stolen money.

Other than for bluechips, multinationals and foreign missions,etc,Banana Island can never be for yearly tenants,but house owners.

If you are that rich ,you build or buy!

Long awaited.

Many times they impose illegal fines without fair hearing .

An organisation that is headed by a political nominee of the ruling party ,which is also controlled by the ministry of information, should never be given such powers without recourse to the court of law. That can only lead to tyranny and suppression of press freedom.

Read the book, winning through intimidation by Robert Ringer

It's business

Elumelu is a type 2 businessman. He will try and claim he is a nice man but when the time is right, he will try and take all the money for himself.

Otedola had been screwed once before and he still jumped into the river with the shark without taking precautions.

Business na Jungle.

You have a weak mentality.

So because someone wrote a book about winning through intimidation,the book becomes the ultimate such that backstabbing no longer exist.?

Even though this is really a case of betrayal of trust and not backstabbing.

There is nothing foolish in revealing your intention to someone you believe is your friend.

It is the highest level of business betrayal, for the same friend to outsmart you on the same issue,without prior dialogue.

Oseniwaje:
With all due respect sir. Someone of your class should have a very renowned NGO that will be recorganized around the continent to give back to the Nigeria you've benefited somuch from. Bill Gate comes to mind.

So you've not heard of Dangote Foundation?

It's latest activity was a N100k donation to EACH of our Sudan returnees.
