PoliticsRe: Rivers Withheld Allocations Released - Sole Administrator Confirms by gotnel: 7:47pm On Mar 21, 2025
ddippset:
grin

With each passing day you find yourself at a loss as to how to understand Nigeria..

You cannot release allocation to a democratically elected Governor who is working with a budget passed by 4 lawmakers under the logic that "those 4 lawmakers only represent 12 percent of the state"

But you can release allocation to a man who is not even from the state , appointed by the President, without even one single lawmaker to make appropriation.


I need someone to help me understand this..

Surely the Nigeria Constitution never could have contemplated this absurdity.
Simple idea.
The president is in control of executive council of the federation.
All federal allocations to every states, local government areas, and federal parastatal are handled by the federal ministry of finance.
Ministry of finance is headed by the minister of finance.
Minister of finance is an appointy of the president

Supreme Court made an order for withholding of River state allocations due to the political brouhaha.
The political gladiators were the one being targeted by the supreme Court.
Not the people of River state.

Now that the gladiators are not in control of the state resources, it is very important to release the money to the administration appointed to run the state.
God help us

Silasworld:
For a man to have sex with a heavily pregnant woman is very difficult because it will be very irritating for the man. Women need to understand this.
The reverse is the case with many people. It is when a woman is heavily pregnant that they are more attractive for sex.
Some women are very much craving for intimate moments when they are heavy in pregnancy.
Many men love the look of a heavily pregnant woman and even enjoy sexual intercouse with her
PoliticsRe: Marketers Condemn Fuel Price Reduction, Back Importation by gotnel: 9:10am On Mar 11, 2025
Maxymilliano:
I know a station that was selling at 920/liter as at last week Friday but had to drop the pump price to 875 this week despite having reserves of old stock.

That's what the lamentation is all about grin
Not really a problem for the dealers.
They make gains yesterday.
They incurred some loss today.
Petrol dealers have been making much money from fuel price increase time without numbers.

If they experience some loss in their business, they should bear with us, another heavy gains is coming.
Beauty of deregulation.

PoliticsRe: Importers Fret As Dangote Lowers Petrol Price Again by gotnel: 10:49am On Feb 27, 2025
Good news.
Petroleum products are good for comparison and competition in a free range market.
Good thing that Dangote refinery is reducing prices.
Good thing the importers of Petroleum products are crying over anticipated loss on their business.

My advice is that The importers should not stop import.
Let them continue to import products from a different countries and producers to find a better price for products so as to compete with Dangote prices.
Or better options for the importers is to switch to local refineries business also.
I believe the Petroleum products importers are really good and rich enough to build refinery in Nigeria also.
The local refineries business is the next step to take for the Petroleum products dealers to help make the competition more effective and better.

Christianity EtcRe: Christianity Will Soon Wipe Out Of This Land, Islam Will Take Over - Ex-bishop by gotnel: 1:17pm On Feb 20, 2025
excellencyabia1:
the fact still remains that the so called church learders are building personal business empires and not Christian empire
relatively Christianity is dying.
The real reason Christianity may die off is what you have just said here.
In the beginning of the Christianity in Africa, the missionaries were in the businesses of exploration and exploitation mixed with free education, free health care and some more services to help make people more attractive to the new religion
The individual that are in this Christianity business now are too much greedy.
They are busy building business empire without much helping out the masses..

PoliticsRe: Nigerian Supreme Council For Islamic Affairs Condemns "Intolerance" in Southwest by gotnel: 1:16pm On Jan 30, 2025
The issue of INTOLERANCE is not feasible here.
Muslims, Christians and Traditional worshippers are tolerating themselves properly in the south west of Nigeria.
There has been a way of proffering solutions to all disputes from ages immemorial in Yoruba land.

The introduction of sharia arbitration system in Yoruba land is being frowned upon, because of certain traits of the system
It is very important to keep the peace and tranquility of the people as they were in the days of our forefathers and as they are now.

We have enough disputes resolution systems for our people to use in all situations where necessary.
Nearly all extended families in Yoruba land have practitioners of Islamic and Christianity and to some extent Traditional worshippers as members of the family.
And everyone is fine with one another.

The conflicts resolution systems that are available and have been in use for long time since the life of our departed fathers and mothers are still very much efficient and effective.

What we need from all the religion leaders now is how they can help people to make life more easier to live.
Not bringing up an issue of justice system that can lead to confusion and crisis in our society.
God help us

Righteousness2:
Your Excellency Sir,
You cannot Serve two Masters!
It does not matter how many churches you go to in a day.
You cannot claim to Serve GOD and Serve ifa or whatever.
It is an act of one deceiving himself or herself!

Choose you this day whom ye will Serve.
The gods of your traditions or the True GOD of Heaven and Earth, THE CREATOR AND INNVENTOR OF THE WORLD.


As for me and my Generations, WE WILL SERVE THE LORD GOD ALMIGHTY, THE GOD OF ISRAEL.
Mr Righteousness, Obasanjo is very correct in what he is saying here.
Take a closer look around the world, you will understand more better.
Christianity and Islam was a tools for exploration and exploitation of the peoples resources and their minds.
And it will remain so till eternity.
PoliticsRe: Senate Moves To Ban Foreign Currencies In Nigeria by gotnel: 4:21pm On Dec 17, 2024
This bill will be the best ever since the beginning of this current democratic dispensation, if it can be passed to law and assented to by the president.
Colonial rules are still very much here with us in the form of the day to day currency exchange in Nigeria.
I hope the elites will not work against the passing of the bill to law because they are the one that are exposed to the use of foreign currencies .

Oshiomole ia part and parcel of the problems in Nigeria.
Yes, we are in need of technologically minded people to join the industrialised nations of the world.
But our policy makers are not helping us.
Oshiomole was a governor of Edo state for eight years. Not a single technical college was established by his administration.

We need a little reorientation in Nigeria to help us get more prosperous and industrialised .

According to S&P Global Commodities at Sea data, just 280,400 barrels of gasoline and blendstock were dispatched to Nigeria in the first week of the month, ending October 6, down from a weekly average of 1.3 million barrels in August.

“In the week ending October 13, just one product tanker reported shipping gasoline to Nigeria, with just 290,567 barrels departing from Antwerp for delivery to Lagos. These two October cargoes fall significantly lower than the 12 dispatched in the first half of August and September respectively,” S&P Global said.
With reference to the above mentioned, the dollar to naira exchange rate should also get better than we have now.

Or Tinubu himself is not aware of any happening in his government.
Tell me, if Tinubu is aware of all the crisis in the petroleum products market and he is justifying his not giving a directive simply because of deregulation of the sector then he is not fit for the position of the president of Nigeria.
The oil cartels are taking us far away into hardship.

Nigeria is a very great country that have been in the hands of clueless leaders.
This reforms under the Tinubu administration can not help Nigeria and Nigerians.
Tinubu reforms are tailored to favour world Bank and imf, not the people of Nigeria.
Tinubu independent day speech is additional pain to the people of Nigeria..
He is just repeating himself on why the suffering in the land must continue.
We were told that crude for naira will start today, October 1.
A policy that will help make naira very better than it is now
Our president did not even mention anything about it.
We all know that his statement on the issue of petroleum products prices would have become a policy statement.
However, the man did not see reason to talk about it.
Tinubu is much more favourable to the imf and world Bank than the people of Nigeria.

BusinessRe: The Unique Story Of Wema Bank; The Oldest Nigerian Indigenous Bank by gotnel: 5:30pm On Sep 27, 2024
brain54:
Oldest bank in Nigeria is first bank...

Oldest indegenous is wema.

Wema bank was the first commercial bank account I operated(my first ever was a micro finance bank)

It was my school account.

I hated the bank so much because of their archaic ways of transaction.

I later abandoned the account when other new generation banks started coming to the vicinity of my school. I still have some money abandoned in that account sef, although not much. (maybe one day I will walk in and request to close the account. Even though I can't remember the account number again. Maybe the money would have yielded a sizable interest grin. Very unlikely though)

I don't know if they changed or modernized their banking systems. As I can't remember using that bank ever since. But I just have the impression and bias they haven't.

Ironically, I have hardly had any transaction carried out with the bank since then.

And when I pass through any branch the thought that comes to my mind is "people still use this bank"?

I guess they do!
A very good bank.
They are enjoying the old reputation while evolving and matching very well with the latest version of banking technologies.
