AllenSpencer:
You still talking 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Do another “Edo no be Lagos “ and see if Ebonyi state will not acquire Edo state.

i knew it would get to this point from shuaibu who betrayed Oshio..... Shuaibu was a tailor that oshiomole brought to Kaduna Textile mill those days when oSHIO was their union Leader....He should have sticked no matter what but he didn't ....I am not saying Oshio is good but somethings are just better left the way it is ......in 48 Laws of Power Never try to outshine your master let him enjoy the ovation when its loudest and until he leaves the stage your turn to shine would come' But wisdom is far from most Politicians in those SS/ SE region they would always miscalculate Politically.........From Azikiwe to Ironsi to Ojukwu, down to Gej till even P.O......Almost the same way of thinking they are smart but end up being the looser....

I laugh when I hear people thanking Gowon for abolishing the 4 Region's Nigeria had and creating states. These people think it was for their benefit but they are yet to understand that it was for the benefit of Gowon and his fellow Northern cohorts

These people never bothered to read the Decrees Gowon used in creating states to realise that Gowon not only gave the North half of the states he created, but that Gowon also abolished resource control and placed all resources in the hands of the Federal government. Gowon gave you states but took control of your resources, what's the point?

As for the war, These people do not also realise that it was Gowon who broke the peace agreement him and Ojukwu signed in Aburi, Ghana, which led to war

Ignorance is a terrible disease

Ben Nwabueze did all those under Ironsi .... Formation of unity Government and Resource control....All directives was from the center....You people wouldn't change History.....Gowon didn't create that law ...
Even the northerners never knew it was in their interest until when Gowon came in and saw it he couldn't change it back to the way it was ..And the purpose of Ironsi overthrow was jettison that's why Ojukwu was angry ...
Weve just discovered oil so most people didn't know much about it not even in the middle east

Bravo ....Good job Pastor

This is serious

I'm facing similar issues mine is she must be able to speak my language....I have met Alot of nice women who can't I wonder were this is leading

tspun:
To those saying tinibu is not the cost of the recent hardship Nigerians are facing.
Na Buhari remove subsidy Abi na Buhari float the naira?

These are the two major things that cost the hardship Nigerians are facing.

We don't want you to take full responsibility of anything just take us to where Buhari left us please

They've been using loan to prop up naira this is not sustainable as well as paying for Subsidy...Former President Buharis Govt got so many things wrong ....Heaping up debts without any commiserate Capital Projects to Pay up ...
We are paying a heavy price for reckless governance...

Draslo:
Imaginary sanctions.
Meanwhile the US is celebrated for having military bases all over the planet ( NATO for Anti Russia interests, Middle East for pro Saudi interests, Asia for China interests. Who come be troublemaker?

South East Asia Is Taiwan, Japanese, Philippines, interest not Chinese

Wrong moves....
It was the same thing obj sis with oil companies in Ph....What did Nigerians who became managers dis with the same opportunities.,.
Use their office to employ relatives, Friends, Cronies some even Girlfriends and Mistresses.....

Regulation means checkmating possible infringement on Rights and Abuse of Power ...
We definitely need Expatriate and Foreign direct investment.....
Protectionist idea is not the way to go but a Climate of Healthy Competition and Reward for excellence
But just employing people for just being Nigerians is not a way to go ...

I hate people that like gaslighting. Every security agency have their primary objectives and other complementary objectives aimed as to strengthen both internal and external security of a nation.
My grouse with you is the fact that you're asking what is the function of FRSC and NSCDC. Just I always tell people, Police as the mother security have all the functions of other security outfits, even that of army. This was so because they were the first and only security outfit then,and they need to act as one. The only issue I have is the inconsistency of our system, most of these functions suppose to have been removed from their act to make them function as real police and not jack of all trades they are.
Besides, our governments are also contributing to the ineffectiveness of the security outfits, by their creating subsidiary outfits, aimed as to empower their cronies and benefactors. Instead of the money they are giving to non-state actors to provide security coverage to government assets be expended on the main stream outfits, they neglect them and make them inactive.
This country we have a long way to go with our back and forth way of administration.

Thank you my brother God bless you you got the exact thing I want to hear ...."Which is the jack of all trade thing we see about".....
You can see what I am seeing about what's actually going on .. Why should billions of naira is being allotted to just securing High profile persons...
Private Security Business is also growing business..Why don't they use this money to Fund those security arms as though our entire existence as a nation depends on it ...
Poor Administration and Foresight is the problem here ...
Like I said it's just a matter of time almost everyone in the country would bare arms ....And you know what that means ...

obaidan:
sincerely we need these ones. Nothing thrives in an atmosphere of insecurity, it's just that those men and women in those forces and units are not properly trained and motivated. Men in Uniform securing the nation should actually be rated higher than the rest of us, some privileges much more than money that they will not want to lose and therefore protect the badge with all in them, and outright dismissal and loss of those privileges for any one of them that misbehaves. A well trained and motivated FRSC, NSCDC and NPF are all needed for us to have a sane society and yes they should operate as different units. Internally they can coordinate a synergy of their operations in some cases

Yes we do need them but they need to be looked into and find a better way to deploy them because of insecurity...the Failure of this outfits birthed AMOTEKUN and Eastern Security Network and their likes......
Now the Army are also involved in tracking kidnappers which isn't their duty...There's no war yet our soldiers are fighting as though we are fighting a conventional war ....Most of our security problems are internal and civil caused by Corruption of unimaginable magnitude ....If we can deal with that alone Nigeria is on the path to greatness....
If we can make people centred policy give the impression that they can rise to any Level by sheer determination and hardwork in Nigeria but not by Connection and bribes ...And would be rewarded duly for their contribution to society
....
Then Nigeria is on the path to greatness
If not na just dey na una go dey play .....

As long as you keep cheating the system because you were privileged to pioneer the country from 1960 ...Na play with serious Civil unrest that would destroy the country

IfnobeGod20:
You're asking what is the function of FRSC. Is there any country without a functioning Road Safety Corps in the world? Please can you point to one. It's not compulsory you comment on issues beyond your scope. Mind you, NSCDC is an international recognized agency in the world, with different countries code named as it suit them. Many countries called it Civil Protection Agency. Every security agency has its own scope, it's only in Nigeria you see police doing everything, thereby becoming jack of all trades but master of none. Police all over the world are only concern with internal security, especially criminal issues and nothing concern them with civil issues but here police want to do criminal issue, civil issue and also want to engage in defensive against external aggression. No developed country without immigration, prison, Road Safety and civil protection agency.

Sorry ooo if my observations offended you??
with the spate of insecurity...Those agencies would be Considered and some reforms are coming in Security we might even have Local Vigilante directly controlled by FG answerable to the Presidency if we don't see the essence of establishing them
...Gej almost created a Pipeline protection Security Corps.. There's another one called Peace Corp still in the National Assembly.......Am not against FRSC or Civil defense infact I Know the Professor that created FRSC from university of Ibadan...civil defense is fine noth withstanding this are all still Police responsibilities before they came into the System...
Civil defense was a volunteer security outfit or Private Security Company that helped in easing traffic in Lagos before obj discovered them...
We need a synergy that synchronize this units in such a way that their objectives are effective and Precise....
Just like in the art of war ..."A bad general is better two or more good general" ..If a General is bad you ex him if his soldiers are bad the general ex them...
We need a well coordinated approach in dealing with Security...Please keep sentiments aside ...This are real issues arising

obaidan:
not a fan of Tinubu at all, but this cut is needed. most of those things were merged not scrapped, the major cut will come from cost of running the leadership and management of those agencies... no need for plenty PAs and TAs and SAs and SSAs that those agencies are spending money to maintain(u dont want to know the amount of money these agencies are spending on these officers), no need for many DGs, no need for many Headquarters, those agencies have board members that cash out a lot of money, those agencies have senators and honorables performing oversight on them, which is an avenue for those lawmakers to demand bribe from them. Better coordination and synergy in some cases. maybe expansion of Agric ministry is necessary and people surplus to requirements in other ministries should be posted to the Ministry of Agric

Great Opinion anyway....I also have a question as t o what is the Function of FRSC, NSCDC, and many Civil Police agencies that should have been merged into the Police Force ...What's the essence of Security exchange commission when we have ministry of finance......
Most of these Policies would have to go through the National Assembly..Senators would collect enough bribe to keep delaying it for as long as possible..
Except an executive powers is used to by pass these reforms...
Issues regarding Health Like Doctors and other health workers should be looked into....
What we need is transparency and Leaders who Love the People indeed..

That's another austerity cuts coming ....Most people Don't understand the implications of that reports .... Reductions in many many Ministries and Parastatals would also lead to unemployment for many Breadwinners ....
BAT should tread sofly just as how he yielded to the voice of Subsidy and Floating naira .....He should organize his policy no matter how austere to be done in such a way that there's some form of Leverage on those who would bare the effects negatively....
Nigeria is going through a wonderful phase with the right Leadership and good will it would overcome

Pristine664:
How our brethren from South East all turned to Niger Republic fans overnight is still a misery.

The same Niger Republic they hated so much because of Buhari.

Those people have no ideology...They stand for many things so fall for Many things as well ...So to can't define their Values and priorities

Na why dem dey talk about Nigerian Men be this ....
Money comes spend it on the gals .......

Don't blame that American Pastor who said if she's going to marry it must be a rich Nigerian Man ..

we need to have the opportunity to conduct another election once we loose confidence in the capacity in the current government ...if after you are elected a referendum should be conducted to determine your popularity and kicked out once a vote of no confidence is established in the event of economic hardship ......

Focusmind:
These guys are just grand-standing. Poverty -stricken sahel republics, that depends on aids for their national budgets. These rulers would plunge their countries and people deeper into Poverty. International relations doesn't work that way. They are entirely dependent on ECOWAS member States for electricity, importation and support and are still playing strongmen. Nobody should come and rant nonsense here and blame Tinubu.

Don't you think they've thought out all this before coming to Conclusions ....What's ECOWAS benefits to her member countries than easy means of France to control CFA...
Mali is already building the largest Gold refineries in the World ...Burkina Faso is Collaborating with Russia and China to build a Nuclear Power plant Dubbed to Power Most Counties in Africa ...Niger is currently the Fastest growing economy in the world ....
It's just a matter of time you would understand why they took that decision....
What we have in West Africa Ecowas are evil men who have mastered the game of impoverishment of their own people and Ruling them ... Stashing money abroad to the detriment of their country ...
This the western Society are so aware about but since it's profitable to them they do nothing about it

Faiththatworks:
This is a very good move by the CBN, anything to retain some foreign exchange in Nigeria is a welcome development.
I even expect the CBN to go a step further and mandate all these IOC to retain at least 10-20% of the foreign earnings in Nigeria.
Although the NNPCL is supposed to retain Nigeria's share of the earning,but we all know most of the funds is paid into the Consolidated fund and shared by FAAC,and some remitted to our foreign reserve.
Il believe the CBN should go the whole hog and make the law,the continued milking of Our resources to cater for some foreigners must stop.
I want to use this opportunity to applaud Nigerians on Nairaland who have continued to use these hard times to proffer great solutions to the Government.
I keep repeating it, Nairaland should be the bastion of intellectual discourse online.
I'm very happy for all those who keep giving suggestions despite the hardship,I read of the person who gave suggestions on a thread some day ago on the BTA some days ago and now Government implemented some of his suggestions.
I will continue to advocate for Nairalanders to keep making useful suggestions to Government,don't ever feel your advice is not seen,I'm sure someone somewhere will read it.
We will not allow the hardship blunt our thoughts,this is time to come together to overcome this hardship with suggestions and ideas.
God bless Nigeria

The IOC are leaving the country on the premise of insecurity.....
CBN should also be made to Control all other regulatory agencies like Custom,....They should be uniform accounts for this .....All Duties should go electronic and should be given a code ......
Nigeria should have devised a system of Uniform revenue accounts paid through the internet .....
We should also promote Ideas from simple people stop killing people's minds by placing unnecessary bottlenecks on the Basis of qualifications, Connections, Tribalism, Privileges And disability....
Once we have a Single sense of Purpose to make it work ...Nothing on earth can Stop Us

Jennyclay:
All these nonsense broke Nigerian men won’t kill me with laugh

Biko, I can’t laugh under this hot afternoon

Bunch of gigolos!!

Shame!!!

they are coming for you

More ladies are on Nairaland please let him come and train them too they might marry him

This guy just want to play football because of Okocha ....
He doesn't know that those ones played for fun and Talents not even discipline...
Football is likely not his calling he needs to join APC were we have Alot of his kinds

MartinsD12:
I think it's the height of irresponsibility for a woman like this that is not married to head Access bank, this is my opinion and the way I feel about it, the society where we all come from especially this country regards marriage as an art of responsibility you know why if you can manage a family well you can manage anything, like I said earlier I feel it's wrong for a single unmarried person to head Access bank simple

Unmarried women are Prime minister, Presidents in many countries of the world yet did well...Angela Merkel was Divorced in Most Part of her life yet Did excellently well not just for Germany but Europe,,,
Stop this your Marriage believe error .....Who told you that lie....Many people get married in Nigeria simply because they have money not because they're responsible.....
Marriage is not a definition of Responsibility....
If you can't Handle the banking Sector you won't be the GMD ...No matter the number of wives you are responsible to ..
Is that clear

Wotowotoman:
Look at another gullible lazy youth swallowing motivational nonsense he read online. You think say na ordinary business those guys were doing with Access? Why do you think they were called cowboy bankers? Why do you see them fraternizing with politicians all the time?

Guy for your info Herbert, Tony Elumelu, Aig, Fola Adeola, Jim Ovia and co were a bunch of young men that benefited when Nigeria was a jungle and the banking industry was just an industry for anybody with connections to government officials to make money mostly laundering money and doing all sorts of fx round tripping.

I laugh when some people just cook up motivation for you to try harder knowing fully well it can only get you little or no success ...They know such success don't come by hard work ....
I said it most of the people we call successful never invented any thing, Won a Nobel Prize apart from Wole, never wrote a Book that is widely read, Never solve a major human problems ....
They only understand a System they have mastered to exploit...
This guys came up during the banking boom of OBJ,, Tony, Jim, Fola, And Herbert and Co ....Followed by the Oil and Gas Boom of Yar Adua and GEJ...They became people who helped Politicians .,....You can't break into that rank by Just Hard work and Motivation.....
They know what we don't know about Nigeria and how things work in the System .....
The guy that created the tax system in Lagos State is barely known yet he owns no bank ....
But they all went to Abuja to get some connect ...
Nigerian System is something else ....Look and don't be deceived....
It was until recent we realized Dangote refinery was being funded by CBN ....So you can imagine ....How they've been using the System and making sure you are shut out of it .....If you have to break through their ranks and Profile through Business or Banking better know Someone who knows Someone that is a Member of the MAFIAN Nigerian business Moguls ....

Stevenson20:
These people should stop bullying Iwobi. This is the reason some professional international players don't like playing for Nigeria because we are very toxic.

Do you know how Saka was criticized by British for loosing Penalty in Euro .....They reminded him that he was not British.....It took the efforts of the coach to encourage him

Usual boastful character of some women from that part even when the are at fault ....i have had to deal with a lot of them .....Can even easily issue threat an attempt to get you intimidated the next line of action is to boast all over again as usual and eventually cry victim once they can't emotionally blackmail you,,,,,, Signs of Narcissitic disorder

galadima77:
You pack bus after scoring one goal in first half and with 66 to 33% ball possession....as if we were 2 men down...and you wan lift cup... 😂

they wanted to repeat the S.A fluke were south africa possessed the ball throughout . i wonder why Nigerians never got worried about the teams ability to possess football in a technical way untl yesterday.. They were lagging behind in almost all the teams the teams they met ...Little or no goal on targer, Just waiting for osimen foul to get a penalty or mistake by the opponents defender ...Thats not a good tactic to build a team
