every family man or woman should own a car. It is not a liability o. You can't have emergency and be looking for taxi

You forgot to check for rust. I pity you

HacheNoire:
Can he say same about pedophiles? Never!

lol. Is that the best you can do? Gays and women supporting Islam is the most ridiculous thing ever. Islams is evil

erad:
He's an illegal immigrant though.

especially under Trump, you do not need to be convicted. Even if you entered legally, once you give them good reason such as commiting a crime, you are going back home. Even protesters are being deported. Trump no get time

erad:
Appear on the list as what?
What crime was he convicted for?

the US does not have to convict you to deport you. Most criminals deported were not convicted. Example is the famous case of abrego garcia

One major correction. It was Republicans that abolished slavery. It was Republican majority Congress and Senate that passed civil rights for black Americans. First black Congress person was a Republican. Democrats have brainwashed you.

PigTormentor:
See people like you are the ignorant ones. If not for democrats, the US will not be where it is today. Most scientists are democrats, the best schools are in democratic states. The most advanced parts of the US are mostly in Democratic states.
The most backward religious dominated states are Republicans and are also the poorest. Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, South Carolina and other similar states are the.most religious but they are also the lowest on the educational level, the most racist and least developed compared to Democratic states.
They we're also the people that supported slavery while using the Bible to justify their slave trade. They even went to war to continue their slave trade.
And do you also known that most politician that eventually get exposed as a closet gay are also usually the Republicans who talk about gay people all the time.
People who talk about gay people all thr time are often gay themselves but doing it in secret.

There is absolutely nothing inconsistent in the policy. It is price modulation and not reintroduction of subsidy. FG will not pay a kobo to any marketer as subsidy.

Basically, NNPC has agreed to a price ceiling of N1350 per liter. If the landing cost goes higher than 1350, they will sell at 1350 and bear the additional cost. When price then falls below N1350 to let's say N1200 they will recover their cost by still selling at 1350 till full recovery. If price is still low, they can then reduce the price after full recovery.

Not so bad on paper but implementation is key. Apart from NNPC, I am not sure if Dangote and other private sector players in the downstream sector have agreed to this arrangement. It will require serious regulatory monitoring so that Nigerians don't get shortchanged when the prices finally come down.

Anyway, I am hopeful that the outcome of the US election will bring an end or at least a peace agreement to the US-Iran war in the next 30 days.

you are admitting that the government would be selling fuel at high price when the price falls and you think this is a good thing to say? I don't blame you, I blame Nigerian voters that accept all sort of nonsense.

TempleHouse:
Perhaps the relative scam the family 😔
Perhaps the government is lying 🧐

We may never know the truth ‼️

if you watched channels TV interview of the commissioner of police particularly were he was asked to explain how they carried out the rescue, you will know who is lying. Just pray you don't experience this, you will understand what "rescue" means in nigeria

Enugurangers:
Thanks for this. So it was a fake headline. The moderators (NLFPMOD) need to do better. They need to skim through topic content to ensire it aligns with topic title before pushing to FP.

I pity your parents who wasted money on your education. What is this you are writing? Something we all watched on channels TV, you are here talking what you don't know or understand

GoodnessMILAYO:
B is the correct answer.

Be

do you drive or you are just guessing? It's c. You should be able to see the rear of your car and a wide view of the road behind.

Mr man. Please delete my name from your data base, abi what is all this mention from you all the time.

MaxInDHouse:
Now you are quoting what you can't expatiate.
If Jesus said "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven" Matthew 5:16

And you think he wasn't talking to a unique group but individuals in different religions all claiming they are his disciples how can they be the "light of the world" Matthew 5:14

Is it Mr A in Catholic Mr B in RCCG Mr C in Synagogue Mr D in MFM and still Mr E in Cele?

How can the world recognize these different individuals found in different religions as light?🤔

Ọmọ Jesus was referring to one group/organization that will have some unique qualities which all people from one end of the earth to the other end that this group have what all others don't have:





















If you call what all these people are saying "COMMUNITY TRUTH" are these commentators also members of Jehovah's Witnesses?

Abeg continue deceiving yourself o!🙂

Dogalmighty17:
An AI generated image. OP mind yourself

it does not matter even if it is ai. I lived on Opebi Allen, in ikeja. This is a normal thing to see there especially at night and early in the morning. Very very normal thing there.

Kukutente23:
You should consider starting a bank then
Like how many millions of dollars of your friends' funds do you have with you now

why was I quoted? This reply is not for me

SeverusSnape:
Seunmsg is only working for his stipend, you people should not take him seriously abeg

exactly. These guys are working for their stomachs. They will say anything they need to say just to feed

seunmsg:
For those who are interested in the truth beyond propaganda, this video explains everything from the initial arrest of Lee Edwards in 1988 to the conclusion of the case without any criminal charge in 1993. Tinubu was never involved in any narcotics sales or trafficking. Akande, a family member just like Abibatu Mogaji and Kola Tinubu all kept money with Tinubu. The US seized all the funds in a forfeiture case and after proper investigation, they released over $1million that belongs to Bola Tinubu, Kola Tinubu and Abibatu Mogaji while $460,000 that belongs to Akande was forfeited. The US even asked the Tinubu family to agree with the dismissal of the case with prejudice so that no future case can be filed against the US government.

did I not read it that FG abi APC is paying influencers to help with this election? I choose not to be a fool and listen to any explanations

LordReed:
LoLz. Oga be calming down. The IPO is projected to raise $1.2billion which is less than 10% of the $20billion it cost to build the refinery. So NO Dangote is not selling off his refinery to unsuspecting Nigerians. What he has done instead is offload some of the liability for the next expansion phase (which is projected to cost $14.3billion) so that his total liability reduces.

Also this half year has seen record profits for the refinery which means the war has actually been "good" for the business.

his writeup was filled with nonsense and misinformation

SEGLIZ:
how do you conclude usa is phasing out refinery when trump is planning to build a new 168,000 bpd refinery in Texas.

coming to tell us usa is phasing out refinery when trump is planning to build a new refinery, is something else.

don't mind him. USA starting one of the biggest oil production in Venezuela soon and he is here talking trash

smartkester:
I'm angry they're not dragging you enough for this rubbish you wrote here. You're not a broker at all. Everything you wrote here is just rubbish and lacks depth

absolute rubbish. He is one of those people that try to sound intelligent but knows nothing

dmexy33:
I have been a broker, a financial adviser and a Financial technology expert for more than a decade, I was very disappointed to see everyone buying DANGOTE REFINERY IPO and nobody, not even one expert in the field spoke on the implications of owning a share in the IPO.

DANGOTE has read the handwriting on the wall so the decided to go public with his refinery IPO. Now let's look at the reality on ground:

1. Why is DANGOTE going public with the IPO?
I know it is hard to believe but you must understand that after the second world War and the formation of OPEC, The global CRUDE OIL supply became an international product i.e the price of a barrel of crude oil in Saudi or Iran or Venezuela will be the same with the Price of a Barrel of CRUDE OIL in Nigeria. Sometimes there are slight differentials in price but the difference is never more or less above or below $20. So with the war raging in the middle east and has driven the price of CRUDE OIL to over $120/barrel, Fuel at the pump has become more expensive and the war will not stop anytime soon and there is a possibility that we will experience an energy crisis due to fuel being very expensive and unaffordable. There is a possibility that a barrel of CRUDE OIL will hit $500/barrel in 3-4yrs. This is part of the process of phrasing out fossil fuel i.e petrol from being used globally like was done in China and being implemented in the UK. So DANGOTE has read the handwriting on the wall and decided to sell the Petrol refinery to the Nigeria people who ignorantly and blindly rushed it without thinking. Olodo uprising indeed.

2. Will you make profit from the buying into the DANGOTE IPO?
Yes, of course you will. But this is how it will happen; Due to exchange rate differentials, since the war in the middle east and Ukraine_Russia isn't ending anytime soon, it is projected that oil price will continue to go up hence, as oil prices skyrocket and the price of refined oil i.e Fuel at the pumps also continues to rise, you can expect you shares in DANGOTE REFINERY to continue to go up. Basically, as DANGOTE REFINERY SHARES PRICE goes up, cost of living for NIGERIANS WILL GO UP.

3. I see all these content creators and even other Nigerians talking about how they are monitoring DANGOTE trucks and calling DANGOTE, etc
All I have to say is that 99% of Nigerians are olodos. Go and read the agreement, find out what kind of share holder you are and stop disgracing yourselves. When you buy shares in the Dangote Refinery IPO, you become a part-owner of the company, but your role is strictly hands-off. You have no say in the day to day running of the company. #olodouprising.

I agree that dangote stocks are trash but your write up is a bigger trash. You trying too hard to sound intelligent but so ignorant. China phase out fossil fuel and barrel getting to $500 internationally? 😂. Anyway there will be ignorant people that will think you are making sense

pafestula:
Please do your research very well, I am sure your MDX is not 2015. I have the 2017 RDX. They are not fuel guzzler. Thanks

you are right. Seems the 2015 is more economical. Mine is 2013.

pafestula:
Higher than the 2015 Lexus R350?

You guys sabi mislead people here wella oooo

okay. The rx 350 awd consumes a little more fuel sha

enemyofprogress:
Op no try am. The car dey drink fuel like kilode. No talk sey I no warn you o

true, but it sort of worth it. Just don't make it your daily drive

pafestula:
The 2015 uses cylinder deactivation sir on the highway. And it doesn't consume like the Lexus as you claimed.

you said on the highway. Highway mileage is always lower. The 2015 mdx is a fuel guzzler compared to Lexus. I own one so I know. But it has a higher horsepower and weight than the Lexus RX series so it is understandable

Swizzio:
You didn't understand what I said, I mean in Nigeria Toyota and Lexus cars have better resale value because of demand and herd mentality I didn't say they got stronger engines

Yes Honda got stronger engines than Toyota, honda even produces motorcycle and airplane engines

no be lie. Acura is ridiculously cheap when used here. Like this car is at Mercedes level and yet so affordable

olutops:
Mechanic and spare parts are not always available

not true. It is a Honda. It is not hard to maintain, speaking from experience. You sef wey buy mdx no go wan carry am to anyhow mechanic.

GodCovenant:
anytime i see time I see that line I usually don't comment.

You are buying and Nigeria used car for a good price you are still asking for second value.

People ship or buy the car. Majority of them preordered it or ship it directly from abroad. They usually don't need second value.

The second hand value is what you or people make it to be. Mostly bag wagons or what illiterate mechanic over the years have d
Sow a seed. What you don't understand you will call it rubbish.

A this cars people thar are buying the direct don't care or ask for second hand value mostly from people buying 3rd or 5th even to so cheap they will still be asking for second hand value.

exactly o. I don't know why people buy cars and they are already talking about second hand value. Just buy car you like and enjoy

Bunky:
fuel consumption is high. Take note

yes. But I have gotten used to it. It was scary at first for me. I had to learn to drive with less acceleration to conserve fuel unlike with Lexus that does not consume as much fuel

amtheone:
Good Afternoon my people.

Pls I need a sincere review of this car; Acura MDX 2015 direct Tukunbo.

Thank you

I own a 2013 model. Best car I have bought yet. Very balanced, great handling. Lot of features. Does not develop faults easily. But has lots of sensors you must be careful of, don't let anyhow mechanic touch the engine. But it is a v6 and cylinders are larger than most Toyota v6 so, get ready for high fuel consumption.

So for some time I have stopped engaging in debates here on nairaland. It just does not make any sense.

I am inviting anyone who is confident enough to join me on whatsapp video call for proper debates. We will arrange when to start and it will be a series.

Lordreed can you help me invite some of the loudest people here that may be interested.

From here we add more details such as rules and what not.

jesusjnr2020:
Ok. Thought it was similar to this atheist turned believer's experiment, so Lordreed was right then.

I always laugh when I see you make threads. You get excited because Elon musk says he likes the teachings of christ. You uphold what people say about your religion as an approval that you are on the right path. All these means nothing. The fundamentals remain true. It is a man made religion and nothing proves otherwise. It can be a good religion and many of us atheists will prefer to have a world filled with Christians because the teachings of Jesus can benefit society. That is a fact. Unlike Islam. Do your thing. But anyone who questions and is not emotional cannot see how any of your claims proves an existence of god

jesusjnr2020:
You know what? Forget about my own interpretation and just state what you meant by being religious while listening to preaching of "men of God" as you said in the post I screenshoted. Thanks.

to be honest. All these stories of atheists converting to Christianity means nothing. Humans are emotional and anyone can get captured with religion. Core questions we ask as atheists have never been answered. So what is the big deal that someone got carried away with religion?
