Omoh!
Na update you dey share so.

olisaEze:
Yes, Op, but worthy of note, you’re comparing a whole country’s net worth to individual net worths. Instead of Elon Musk & Bezos, why not try comparing the Saudis to Mansa Musa. Even the Muslims in the north are quick to point to the Saudis because of religion, when the W. Africa they’re from has a richer & nobler heritage! Till date, no man is still as rich as that name, before and after. Which is also the reason I suspect he might be the king Solomon of biblical fame.

Mansa Musa is a muslim who used to perform the hajj pilgrimage to Mecca and Medina and so could not have been biblical.

It is not in the inner mind of most people who snub others in greetings, holding conversations or chatting, to act that way.
You'll do well by helping them to come out of their shells, because most of them truly appreciate your warmness.
Believe me!

May your plans to rebuild Nigeria succeed.
Amen

Which is where protests should be directed at first.
But every tom dick and harry go dey open mouth on top President head.

I believe him.
The pattern can be observed on nairaland too.

How come it is mostly the people who are claiming to not be affected by the current economic situation that are posting incessantly about the hunger in the land?

What paradox?

Sincerely, is BAT really the problem of Nigeria?

Gypsum sourcing in Nigeria

Reading through this thread clearly established that the word 'aza' has etymological origin and usages from among the Benin/Edo people. Contributors have shown various examples of this from time immemorial. However, no such etymological usage can be found with the Igbo people. This was established by @KosiGee.

Since etymology is the father of dictionary, it could not probably have been a word of Igbo origin simply because someone decided to type it in there only fairly recently.

I have come to learn a thing or two from these Benin people when they lay claim to something: they are always very foundational. imho.

the CBN sold the dollars at a rate as low as N1490 per dollar

Did I just read 'as low as'...And the banks are still going to add their own margins in order to sell to buyers? Anyway, let the recovery plans begin at least. May God bless your efforts as you begin to set things aright dear Jagaban.

1 xof = 2.5 naira

More than double value for same quantity (or lesser) of export supply.

The implications of the new VAR assisted rules need to be explained to the people thoroughly in that happiness can turn to gloom within a moment and vice versa.

I hope it works but honestly it's a tried and failed approach.

People will find new ways to ferry in dollars and they'll become the cash-out merchants of a new market force.

She should be picked up asap.
This is not how to play opposition politics.
Her inordinate desire to stay relevant in the public space has made her forget that you can't both be an opposition and an activist at the same time.
Once you play opposition politics and you loose in an open contest, you have lost your honour as an activist. But blatant desire to stay relevant in the media won't allow her stay in one place.

The idea that petrol subsidies had to go because they were riddled with corruption and that they consumed a disproportionate share of our national budget is a mere propagandistic cop-out...

I don't agree with above because is it not because of the same subsidy cabal that after the federal government had settled them subsidy money for importing and distributing fuel would then need to borrow money to pay staff salaries? This was common knowledge oga Kperogi.

A vaccine with only 13% success rate or a speculated 36% success rate, at most, at infancy and you are rolling out across many African countries without consideration for what becomes of these recipients in a decade or couple more thereabout when they would have become adults or adolescent. This is an purely an experiment on African children and may even come with a hidden agenda.

It's a pity aids/loans we receive for economic survival have rendered us so silent as not to be able to ask probing questions anymore.

The First category: A prohibited intercession, which is not permitted.
It is the act of intervening on behalf of a person who is guilty of a prescribed punishment after his matter got to the authorities.
...

The zenith of exercising of authority is by Allahu ta'ala on the day of Judgement. Islam has thought us that the holy Propeht (s.a.w.) other prophets (a.s.) and pious people (r.a.) will be permitted by Allah to intercede for others, who are not qualified because all they have of goodness fall short, on that day. So people who are hell bound or who would have otherwise been in hell will be forgiven and given paradise instead. So I am not really understanding how you want me to fit your above conclusion in my head with respect to these occurrences that will happen on the day of Judgement.

Are we being prepped to accept that even if Dangote refinery goes full steam ahead it may not have so great an impact on economic recovery because the core issue here is the crude oil itself which had been sold in advance to acquire loans?
Serious!!!

If that is true, then get ready to welcome the new big boys in town.
It's going to be a very lucrative outfit.

Chai!!!
Na so dem wan take package am?
"insect-resistant and drought-tolerant"
But no longer organic!

Worse still, Nigeria with lax systems all over the place, everything will be mixed together in the market place and we may not even have the benefit of making a choice.
Na wa o.

Oh my God!

Like for years the American intelligence and media harassed our brains until we accepted and agreed that Sadam Hosein has built weapons of mass destruction only for the story to change in the end as no wmd was found eventually. Only the target was sacrificed.

Jaxefij:
It is now very clear who sponsors isis

Righteousness can never understand what you mean let alone his likers whom he has kept in a bubble and consistently fed with innuendoes as long as he is able to throw in an anti Islam sentiment in every writing and not realising that the real truth is buried deep among the very same people he hates. I have never seen anyone more misguided than him.

Is this how the rebbe prophecy is going to hit the rocks?
NLers who love Netanyahu more than the Jews themselves over to you.

Wrong move at bolded! Could cause you tears.
Eat paw paw instead. Just pawpaw.

Righteousness and his disciples, who engulfed by a pyrrhic sense of victory, won't know how to handle a realistic assessment such as this.

Welcome back from the downtime.

What a Awesome! Beautiful! Lovely! Exquisite and Palatial wonderpiece.

Listen folks!
While it is good and sweet to Have the Good things of this life, We Must Have an understanding that Everything we see and acquire and have in this world are Vanities and Have No Eternal Value to us.

Never let the vanities of this world Derail, Confuse or Hinder you from the NEEDFUL.
Nobody is taking a pin out of here.
Na.ked we came here and Na.ked we leave.

Have whatever you wish to have here on Earth but Ensure you Have a Genuie relationship with JESUS CHRIST. This is the GREATEST and Most Important for All of Humanity. Never Ever Joke with this.

Eternity is real! Heaven and Hell are Real.

Having the vanities of Life without a Genuie relationship with JESUS CHRIST is an act of gathering Firewood to burn you in Hell.

Bitterness.

The vasectomy guy was literally murdered whilst being alive.
After giving him kids that were not his, the wife convinced him to get a vasectomy and he did.
Brutal!!!

Femich18:
Why should they even ask for payslip in the first place if not for ulterior motive?

Just submit the payslip but give them a detailed explanation of your monthly income if they will employ you they will

The ulterior motive in most cases is that they are only going to negotiate you based on a percentage that is fixed to your current earning and not on the real value that you are coming in to deliver: 15%, 25% etc on top of your current earning.

It's one of the indicators of a micromanaged company with dodgy remuneration strategies.
