500k per houshold isn't bad. I would prefer a 1m. |

This is quite beautiful. It is a pity core Northerners do not value Western education. |
golamike:For a geo, can I get like 1,000 email addresses? I want to use like a state geo. An example is californiadoctors.com. Since there are bound to be thousands of doctors in the state, it should work. I could start by targetting doctors in San Francisco, next maybe, Los Angeles, and so on. |
WhizdomXX:That's nice to hear. |
The level of insecurity is truly troubling. In 1999, everywhere was peaceful, except the restive Niger Delta, where militancy had some grip. Today, everywhere you look, there's violence or a form of lawlessness everywhere. It is becoming a global problem. Europe is faced with the challenge of immigration, especially refugees entering in through boats. In South America, it is drugs related crime. The US has high levels of gun crime, school shootings, and drug use. It is dispiriting. We are truly in the last days. This should give us hope for the time for our deliverance is near. 25 “Also, there will be signs in the sun and moon and stars, and on the earth anguish of nations not knowing the way out because of the roaring of the sea and its agitation. 26 People will become faint out of fear and expectation of the things coming upon the inhabited earth, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken. 27 And then they will see the Son of mand coming in a cloud with power and great glory. 28 But as these things start to occur, stand up straight and lift up your heads, because your deliverance is getting near.” It is time we pray for God's kingdom to come! There's no future for mankind. By 2040, at th earliest, it is expected that the Arctic ice would have completely melted. The arctic is one of two of the earth's refridgerators. The second is the Antarctica. Once that happens, the earth would become much hotter and all bets are off. Global warming would be supercharged, and unleash extreme weather conditions that would overwhelm countries. We are like the proverbial frog in slowly boiled water. If I did not rejoice in the hope the Bible gives, I would be a climate change activist, with the false hope we can save the planet. To learn more about the true hope the bible gives, please read this article: Can the Nations Unite to Avoid Climate Catastrophe?—What Does the Bible Say? https://www.jw.org/en/library/series/more-topics/can-nations-avoid-climate-catastrophe/ |
elipheleh:Thanks for the enlightenment. This was quite educative. Please stay with her. Let me ask a stupid question- does she exercise to look cute for her one and only? |
You forgot estate agent. First, go to other agents around your area. Write the properties that they have in your notebook. Buy a black board and write some of the properties that you collected. Focus on self contain, miniflat, 2bedroom and 3 bedroom. Put your phone number at the bottom. Ask estate agents for a copy of registration form which you will use to write your own. Find a shop or an office, preferably in a busy location. Beg them that you want to put your board there. You don't have to stay there, but it is best you are near to it. When people see the listing on your blackboard, they will call you and you appear. You can collect money for registration or may not. Some agents charge as much as 15k. I don't charge it. You call the agents who gave you the briefs. You will learn on the job. Within 30 days, you would have mastered lettings. It may take you a year to master sales which is where the big money is. As you grow, start joining property groups on Whatsapp. Advertise on Nigeriapropertycentre.com or use it to search for properties. You can advertise in Castle magazine but it does not bring in traffic like before as most people have gone online. You can also advertise on Jijii.ng |
Those who revert to 2013 when the nation's GDP was over $500bn should be in for a shocker. The primary reason why GDP was so high was because of high crude oil prices. Once the price of crude oil began to collapse in the 3rd quarter of 2014, the valuation would automatically drop because the Naira's value would also drop. The Naira's depreciated value would reflect in the GDP valuationc However, if Buhari had simply maintained the policies he inherited from Jonathan, the economy could easily have been growing by at least 5% or more annually. Nothing exciting, but would still have created lots of jobs and prevent the Great Japa which started around 2020, and continues today. The economy had totally collpased under Buhari. |
SpencerForbes:The Bible does speak of rebellious angels who chose not to follow God but the Devil. They are called demons. They are the power behind spiritism In 1 Corinthians 10:20-22 says: No; but I say that what the nations sacrifice, they sacrifice to demons and not to God; and I do not want you to become sharers with the demons. 21 You cannot be drinking the cup of Jehovah and the cup of demons; you cannot be partaking of “the table of Jehovah”and the table of demons. 22 Or ‘are we inciting Jehovah to jealousy’?d We are not stronger than he is, are we? As a Jehovah's Witness, we have been cautioned repeatedly in our publications about relaying tales regarding spiritism, juju and everything related to them for we might be relaying falsehood. Worse, we might be acting as referrals to the devils lies and machinations. It makes a lot of sense. If you tell a set of twins, one grew up in Nigeria and the other in the US, which one would believe that village people killed his father? Who would go to Babalawo to know who killed his father who died from cardiac arrest? Imagine in times past how parents might have sacrificed animals to appease Shopona , the Yoruba god of smallpox not to kill their child. Vaccination has ended, Imagine a servant of God relaying stories about Shopona, as though he existed? Following the counsel helps stamp out superstitions. We just know that spiritism exist, and we should stay clear of it. |
Techpik:You must stay in an environment that nay not be up to your financial status. You can afford to live in the cheapest neighborhood, as you are not pressured by distance to work when renting. I know a freelancer who lives in sango-Otta for instance. Why not design a free website for your neighbours? If it's very good, they may even refer you to others. You can even offer them a commission if they get you clients. Running from problem rarely changes things. You'd be paranoid that at any new address, they'll eventually reach the same conclusion. Most importantly, don't be a prisoner to what others think. I would advise you to dress properly. Dreads and clothing associated with Yahoo boys are a straight no. This could get you into unnecessary trouble with security agencies seeking to milk for some cash. |
This is even worse than the mini-skirts she's normally fond of. She looks uncomfortable and miserable, With this, she will remain in the limelight. "The Emperor's New Clothes." |
MICHEALADEX:🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 |
brain54:Was he ever found culpable for the missing meat in the pot? |
UzorIyke:The only benefit of these taxes for now is that it could keep the Naira stable for the next ten or even 20 years. Another benefit may 24hour power supply. The money from these taxes will provide the fiscal power to finance massive increases in transmission capacity and also upgrade the electricity infrastructure. So, there are benefits. Nigeria isn't Switzerland or the UK. Non-oil tax collection is barely 5% of GDP, while theirs is over 35%. It's like expecting someone who graduated uni 2 years ago working in a bank to fair as well as a man who has been working for 30years in the same bank. The guy may even be the branch manager. |
WebMind:Buhari borrowed massively and there was nothing in the foreign reserves. The foundation for the increase in foreign reserves was due primarily to the return to market led foreign exchange policy through the floating exchange rate policy. That was the primary trigger. Buhari interfered in foreign exchange market by fixing the exchange rates well above its true value. This was a collosal blunder that Emefiele should have fought against. |
richiemcgold:He was actually Tiv, from Benue State. |
D Brendaniel:You just want to poo-poo the results. Estimates from external resources are actually more credible from the CBN as the central bank might try to hide the true figures. This was the scenario during the Emefiele years. Check the link below: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1AZ4j7bkMA/ |

China and Russia should stop playing. They won't stop an American led invasion of Iran. That would be catastrophic. Iran, however, will fight dirty. The exercise going on in the Syrait of Hormuz is a warning to that. America's upper hand is that they are seeking regime change. A change in the regime would bring an end to any carnage the Mullah would cause in the Strait. Then again, I might be wrong. Iran might decide to hit the oil infrastructure in the Gulf which it has threatened to do. If the fallout is worse than the US expects, attack could be suspended. |
Brendaniel:Okay.
|
Brendaniel:Do a search using Google Ai mode with these keywords: "what was the true state of Nigeria's foreign reserves when Tinubu assumed office in May 2023?" |
Brendaniel:Please note that what was published there was gross foreign reserves and not net foreign reserves. The net foreign reserves are the actual amount the central bank actually has access to. The other might be encumbered. Tinubu met $3.99bn in net foreign reserves. Worse, the central bank was owing buyers of forex $7bn. It was a full blown disaster Buhari left behind. $3.99bn could not even cover 1 month worth of imports. The minimum should be 4 months. The severe forex scarcity was what chased ot pursued GSK and a few others out of Nigeria. Based on this, Tinubu inherited not just the least foreign reserves in real terms but the worst economy ever. Despite this, when it comes to financial discipline, OBJ deserves top marks. Tinubu is a bit reckless. However, Tinubu gets the highest marks when it comes to economic policies. If many of the economic policies had been implemented during OBJ's first term in office, the GDP would probably the over $1 trillion today. Ending the fiscally draining and economic regressive oil subsidy, the floating of the Naira and the present tax reforms are light years ahead of others. The economy is finally moving sway from it's over reliance on crude oil. Even though Obj isn't a fan of Tinubu, he has been rather quiet regarding his governance. That alone speaks volumes. Obj is known for constructive criticism |
The figures here show the gross external reserves and not the net reserves. The net reserves show the actual reserves the central bank has access to, and it and does not include the encumbered amount. Tinubu actually met $3.99bn as net foreign reserves. |
Nifemy4:This was w good article until you mentioned race. What does have to do with it? You race does not determine your productivity. China in 1978 was desperately poor. It was poorer than most African countries. Did that mean that the Chinese were useless? No. Today. China has the second largest economy in the world. |
Skydiv:With the rise of the Internet, it is now easier to start a side hustle that would bring in money. Many can earn their monthly pay in a week online. |
clearcrystal:You're actually right! Why I felt it was not true as he himself knew it wasn't possible. He said so as to win the elections. ![]() |
Believeintruth:When did he say he would make the exchange rate $1- N300? That's a fat big like. Please show me proof. Edit: He was right. He sent me proof. Tinubuuuuuuuuuu! |
I don't know i9f they were daft or something. Every Indomesian knows that Aceh, where this flogging was carried out is quite strict regarding the application of Sharia. Aceh probably acounts for less than 2% of the nation's population. They should have commited their sinful act in a more liberal environment. |
mrgreen4real:He too was flogged. |
Princedapace:Buhari came to fight but ended up worsening it. It was much worse under him. No one is saying corruption is good, but an economy can still grow under high levels of corruption, This was the cae of China and South Korea. What is most important is for the government to set up economic policies that will make the economy grow by at least 8% annually for at least a decade. |
Mistersolar:How shuld subsidy remain simply because they have ended corruption? What you have just said is no different from,"if laborer stops getting drunk, he will become a rich man. Educated illiterates such as Okonji-Iweala, Lamido Sanusi, Charles Soludo and international bodies have praised the removal of the fuel subsidy. The subsidy was costing about 2% of GDP. It was the primary reason for the huge borrowing during Buhari's government, that bankrupted the country. Oshiomole who frustrated OBJ's attempt to remove the subsidy started singing a different tune when he became governor. He supported Jonathan's removal of the subsidy in 2012. |
