What else was she expecting ?
If you arriving late for an appointment,due to unforeseen circumstances,courtesy demand you communicate and apologize ahead of expected time.
Been punctual means you value and take the appointment serious, hence you must be ahead of the appointed time.
Let's value time and use it wisely.

Its their 7th date. He must have cautioned her severally but still chose to stick to "African time."

The man put on the reset button.

Since this was her 7th date, I'm certain this wasn't the first time she was late. He was simply teaching her a lesson.

I'm an estate agent and many agents and clients are fond of showing up late for inspections in Nigeria.

It's very infuriating.

I sincerely wish you the best. You can throw your burden upon God for he cares for you (Read 1 Peter 5:6-7)

I doubt she's marrying out of love. She might be seeking security. That's what sone widows do. A well known case was Jackie Kennedy after the assassination of her husband. She married the Greek billionaire, Unassisted.

She is going to regret it, really regret it

It's one thing not to listen to you but another when she won't listen to her own parents. It's not that she's penniless.

You can't dictate to her. The best you can do is advice, which you've done.

It is the obstinate fly that follows the corpse I to the grave.

Alol, let even say it Buhari, he is PdP who brought Buhari

The charade repair was carried out under who ?? when Nigerians denounced Refinery are back n working ... which govt defended it with propaganda

Yeah ! Tinubu ended subsidy as his style of always punishing Nigerians ... buh what has that brought efficiency to NNPC,
Are you high or on weed, which petroleum act stops importation, was there anytime govt stopped issuing license to marketers so how did Tinubu save Us from monopoly ?? .. abi you think naa pikin you dey follow talk

Since he removed the subsidy .... mention one benefit you can point that Nigerians gained in return, can they even account for subsidy savings

The charade repair was carried out under Buhari based on what was presented to him. Tinubu has zero blame here.

There are several benefits. The Naira has finally stabilised. If the subsidy still existed the Naira would come under severe pressure that would force it to depreciate.

The economy too is stabilising, and Nigerias credit rating has gone up. The government is no longer borrowing trillions of Naira to subsidise petrol. NNPC is free of the sleaze that surrounded the subsidy.

The states are getting far more cash than before, and that's why many state governors are supporting him

Furthermore, the end of the subsidy will lead to
massive investment in the petroleum sector. Dangote for instance wants to turn Nigeria into the oil hub of Africa. This is now attainable with subsidy gone. Many more refineries will be constructed by other private companies now that it is profitable to refine petrol profitable with the subsidy gone. The list is endless.

Even Charles Soludo, Lamido Sanusi, and Okonjo Iweala have all praised his handling of the economy.

Your extreme bitterness that PO came third is the issue here. Tinubu plotted for 24years to get that presidential seat. PO is still dependent on wishful thinking.

The bitterness that PO did not win

A machine working but not efficience is as bad as Replacing it .. you dont need 1st class to know this tinz

You talk as though you have selective dementia ... was $1.5bn the 1st fund alloted to repaired the refinery ... why not do a rough estimation of total
money that have sunk into repair of that refinery frm govt to govt ...the total accumulated repair fund - $21 bn Dangote refinery.... see what we have and show me how you are making $en$e
here

i should blame Buhari that is dead,. what is Tinubu doing differently ... asides shoving down propaganda our throats

Pre Dangote refinery .... did the refinery even work, you are talking " competition" ... you funny man

What are you saying? It was Buhari that approved the borrowing of money to repair the obsolete refineries despite expert advise from Kackikwu.

What has Tinubu done differently? This is bizarre.

He ended the petrol subsidy about 5 decades after it was introduced.

He went against the Petroleum Industry Act by allowing the importation of refined oils to prevent Dangote from becoming a monopoly and charging exorbitant prices.

If it was OBJ or Buhari, they would have banned imports, and supported Dangote.

Most of these women would have sugar boys because how will he service all of them,what about the relationship he would have with his children, because now he has 19 wives and side chicks.

It's a No No for me abeg I encourage father and child relationship, most of the kids here would lack that and also see themselves as competitors.

Anything that makes him happy it's his money.
Congratulations to his family

What of paternity fraud? I pity those praising him.

The Bible.

It amazes me that humans can write such an enduring piece of software for human beings.

What astounds me the most was that the writers knew that the earth was round 2,700 years ago (Isaiah 40:22) and that the Earth was hanging upon nothing 3,600 years ago (Read Job 26:7)

These were things that only became scientifically acceptable less than 600 years ago.

DrMB:
What happens when Nigeria builds its budget on $75 per barrel, but the market tells a different story?
Can a nation dependent on oil revenues stay afloat when Bonny Light slips below the benchmark month after month?
And perhaps the most pressing question, who bears the weight of this shortfall, the government or the people?

The good news is that government is gradually moving away from crude oil

The government was able to achieve it's revenue target by August.

With the new tax act, revenue collection should shoot through the roof. The FG is aiming for revenue collection equivalent to 18% of GDP from the pitiful 10% currently.

nairalanda1:
Because by then, the refineries were scrap thanks to years of subsidy meaning no profit to keep them upgraded over the decades.

Spending the money was more of a political statement, than anything. Also no matter how much they spent, the scrap was going to end up working for a few months.

Ideally, the refineries should have been scrapped since.

(This is not a defence of tinubu, gej, obsasnjo or anyone else. It is a defence of the idea that fuel should be sold at a profit.).

Meles Kyari took Buhari for a ride. It was obvious from the getgo that the billions being borrowed to repair the refineries was money down the drain.

The global best practice was to sell the refineries "as is" to the private sector, something OBJ hurriedly did close to the end of his second term, rather than the government waste more funds on them.

I will keep retierating anyone supporting Tinubu govt is an academic dsgrace & a dsgrace to common $en$e

A Machine working but not efficient, can it produce @standard or adequate expectations

if a machine can't meet the standard or adequate benchmark ... is it feasible or viable to continue with that machine

Our refineries aint even working @ poorly sef

The man said the absolute truth, and that is his crime.

When NNPC borrowed $1.5bn to repair Port Harcourt refinery, I knew it was money down tge drain. It can't compete against a new refinery like Dangote's.

Kachikwu, had already informed Buhari that it was cheaper importing refined petroleum products than producing it from thpse refineries.

They are both echoing the same thing.

It wasn't even Tinubu that permitted the borrowing huge sums to fox tge refineries but Buhari. Tinibu is even flashing a touch on the Meles Kyari time in office

Blame Buhari for the present rot. Tinubu has began a turnaround by ending the wasteful and economic destructive subsidies which Peter Obi also said he would.

Racoon:
This is the same TUC that is supposed to be holding this irresponsible government to its constitutional responsibility is here rationalizing its cluelessness, ineptitude, and incompetency. So much ashamed for the rational reasoning of some so called people in this nation

The man spoke the truth. I was forced to read what he said slowly to be certain i missed nothing.

Once you don't like someone, let's take Tinubu for
example, nothing he does will be credible.

What is he going to hold Tinubu to account for?

Is he the only artist in Nigeria? Why is it always him?

I am not saying other artists are perfect, but his is a bit too much!

Kukutente23:
This is a lie
Subsidy on diesel was paid until 2015
Your man was a beneficiary of subsidy

I didn't know

There is systemic complicity especially with the security operatives tasked to preventing oil theft. Civil defence officers have become quite wealthy when posted there.

Unfortunately for the government, it has to thread carefully. If they don't, the bombing of oil assets may recommence by aggrieved souls.
That was what the militants did back in the day when OBJ tried cracking down on them.

The prime focus should be achieving the 2mbpd target by the end of the year.

Unfortunately for Tinubu, higher crude oil production may not mean higher oil revenues as the US economy may soon be in a recession due to Trump's tariffs. As the US economy enters a downturn, it has affected the price of crude oil.More production may lead to lower prices.

Feelsgood:
Do well to research on the subsidy scam...it was clearly stated by Sani that Otedola was part of it but as usual like your fellow ronus... you bury your head in the sand.

It is Peter Obi thinking he won the election after coming third. He barely got 25% votes in 16 states.

That's how you bury your head in the sand.

He wants any chance at winning the next election, he has to be Atiku's running mate. Northerners will not vote for an Igbo man.

Tinubu went the Muslim Muslim route because he k ew if he picked a Northern Christian like Dogara, he would lose nicely like PO.

I am apolitical. I don't even vote. My salvation is in God's hand

Next time, don't go the tribal route. It's petty and infuriating. You distort objectivity. I did not give a damn about Otedolas tribe when writing.

I find the second to last paragraph quite funny.

Why cry over spilt milk? The subsidy is gone and that's what matters.

In addition, I doubt Otedola benefitted from the subsidy as his diesel was sold at market reflective prices. I suspect the subsidy on diesel had been removed by then.

esthel:
There is a bridge in Akute or maybe Lambe, Amosun started it. This guy abandoned that bridge since over 5 years now, that bridge would have made so much impact because that place is heavily populated.

That's the bridge at Akute.

They might do the bridge as the want to tar the road to the bridge. The road is ijoko road.

It seems he has oyinbo blood.

I think he was addictedd to coke.

This might explain his early passing.

surgical:
That's always the lies to escape accountability what of revenue from resource
What you stating is the government side which is far from the truth

That 10% the government collects has resources included

surgical:
Why is how they pay or collect taxes you guys always emphasise what about how taxes are effectively utilise in other countries, it is always about taking no giving back
Such a situation brings disequilibrium
When the people fulfils their obligations, government must discharge their responsibilities too
They will never tell us the free health care in uk or Canada from taxes, or free schools from taxes,or subsidies for children from taxes, all this makes it bearable for the citizens to cope with whatever taxes
But in Nigeria our taxes are used to finance the opulent lifestyles of our politicians and the parasites will still have the audacity to say its not enough despite having nothing to show for the ones they had collected

Tax collection of 18% of GDP isn't enough to fund free health care or free universities. Worse, presently, it's just around 10%.

Most countries that offer these to their citizens collect at least 30% of GDP in revenue.

That 30% capital gains tax is simply too high.

It's ludicrous. 10% is sufficient.

Go school you said no



God bless you bro. $42b is enough to solve all the infrastructural deficits and fiscal challenges in Nigeria, there's no need for borrowing . Make Tinubu chook hand inside the $42b reserves. That's the way these wailers been dey think. I no dey too blame dem, na too much ignorance

Beerbeer:
She is not married and has no children.

Sorry to ask, how old is she?

Beerbeer:
We are four siblings in my family: two boys who are twins and two girls. When my mum passed, my elder sister stood in as a parent for us. She paid for our university education and sent us monthly allowances for feeding. In fact, three of us would have dropout if not for her. Even when I graduated from school, she was still sending me 30k every month, pending when I get a job. This is in addition to also sending same to my siblings and my father. She has done this for close to 10 years without complaint.

Recently, I finished a project that paid me 2.1 million. This is how I spent the money:
I gave 500k to my church to thank them for getting me the job.
300k to my father.
100k to my stepmum.
100k to my second sister.
Bought 700k laptop to help with my coding job.
I used the rest to pay rent, change my wardrobe, clearance from school, and feeding.

My elder sister found out from my twin brother and got angry because I didn't tell her anything about the job or the money. She was also angry because I didn't set aside money for my twin brother going to law school this year.

To be honest, I didn't think it was a big deal to tell her. I knew my twin was in safe hands cos she was already handling that so I didn't bother. Before now, she had already paid the law school fees (about 500k). So I thought it was settled. I tried to reason with her but she refused to hear.

She was also angry I didn't tell her about the laptop. I knew I messed up here because she was the one that encouraged me to pick up coding and even bought my first laptop. I told her I wanted to finalize everything but it made her angry tye more. She blocked me and I also found out she blocked everyone else including our father.

All these happened in April. I thought she would calm down by now. But I just discovered that she has moved out of our state without telling anyone. She has blocked all the numbers we tried to reach her.

My twin brother said she only sends him allowance for law school (100k every month) and has blocked his number so he won't contact her. He is the only person she sends money to now as she has stopped giving us as before.

I am so confused. Why is she acting like this? Shouldn't she be happy for me? Nairalanders help me.

When you got that large sum of money, you should have informed her, and even sent her some.

You should have visited her and bought lots of gifts for her children. You can repay for being generous to her kids.

You seemed to have forgotten about her, and taken her for granted.

Racoon:
A GDP growth in background of worsening hardship, increasing cost of living, worsening reducing power, increased govt borrowing, double-digit inflation, is not in tandem is nothing to write home about

Tinubu met a bankrupt economy.

From the experience of Thailand and Indonesia, it might as long as five years for things to fully recover. Faster economic growth is part of the process.

SmartPolician:
During an interview with Seun Okin, Wike claimed he doesn't like travelling to America. It's possible they have already barred him from entering the country.

Also, it is likely that Tinubu is already barred from going to the US because of the dossier the FBI has on him. That's the kind of character l@ptop boys are here promoting. Youths without values.

A sitting president has diplomatic immunity and no international warrant for his arrest has been issued, unlike that for Netanyahu.
