How long will this artificial propping-up and Naira appreciation bubble last? We're only worsening matters for ourselves if this fake approach is the best way we can address the problem.

Naira can only genuinely appreciate when you attract local and foreign investment here, and when our export earnings increase significantly. In other words, we have to prop up the economy, not prop up the dollar. These abokki dunderheads in power need to quit scratching the surface. We are not fooled.

Earth2Metahuman:
why is he not exploring oil in the eroded land but went as far as south sudan.

Simple, eroded land is inhabitable

I don't know what you're talking about, but I do know that your brain is more eroded than anything else...not a fertile land for common sense to blossom.

obataokenwa:
Good business idea. who would want to invest such huge amount in this visionless government plus their nonsense EFCC suspecting everyone upandan. Imagine the kind of money kept idle by people cos Buhari felt they all stole it and must all be jailed plus his hatred for the people of SS and SE

The volume of money 'kept idle' and hidden outside the banking system/real sector is mind-boggling.. Definitely in the billions of dollars... Money that would ordinarily have been invested back into the economy for the collective good of the masses.

No thanks to Buhari's vision-less and unwise gra gra approach to his so-called anti-kworapshan war and the kill and go bark and shout style of the EFCC under the illiterate abokki Magu.

Engr prince Arthur Eze...eze n'ukpo...the richest igbo man in the country

There's no doubt about that. He is the richest Igbo man alive, home and abroad.

Oga Arthur doing big things as usual.

simpleseyi:
Yet, some people still wonder why one dollar is about 500 naira. I think we should all ask Goatluck Jonathan what he was doing while the nation's treasury was being looted by his friends.

And what is Buhari doing now about the massive corruption going on right now under his leaky nose, perpetrated all his appointees - including those in his kitchen cabinet? Right now shebi the ONLY thing that Buhari and his EFCC are interested in is chasing PDP and Goodluck appointees? Have we heard of any official of the current government that is being investigated or that has been arrested?

Don't worry, after Buhari leaves office revelations would emerge about the corruption that took place under him. Bookmark this your post and remember to ask the same question then!

COMPAQ:
How exactly!?

Less than 5 billion gets a snitch commission of 5% Above 5 billion gets 2.5%.

DanseMacabre:
I'm deliberately looking for trouble but I can't help it.
Your moniker doesn't sound like someone who tasks his brain and works hard. It sounds quite the opposite.

Lol. Assumptions are dangerous. Learn to have an open mind, and don't conclude based on suppositions..

Things are not always what they seem.

As for my moniker. I work to live, and I live for pleasure. Without it life isn't worth living (for me).

Useless idiots. You want to 'turn up' by all means and form big boy for nothing. So those of us who task out brains and work hard day in day out, we are foolish abi? You just want to take a gun, abduct a random 'rich' person, and bark on the phone that they should bring N100m for your lazy and despicable selves. Imagine!

These animals who take to violent crimes like kidnapping and armed robbery are so so disgusting. They are worse than maggots in my estimation. Instant and brutal death is the only punishment they deserve.

There are many potential medical explanations for this sad event.

Manic depression, bipolar disorder, sleep apnea, schizophrenia, nervous breakdown, etc could create mental or psychological imbalances that might lead to this kind of outcome.

Very daft.

So if a whistle blower leads the feds to a N4 billion recovery, he would get more than his fellow snitch who leads the feds to N6 billion. The unnecessarily complicated reward scheme is an example of everything that is wrong with Nigeria.

I hope this idiot has paid the salaries of his long-suffering staff.

I pity am. Him problems plenty, and them wear ashoebi. Them gather dey come.

Mumu guys are just too many.

Lol. Women are more likely to cheat on faithful 'good' men than serially promiscuous guy men. That's the ugly fact of the world.

Believe these fake Nairaland 'feminists' at your own peril.

Without Goodluck, he wouldn't have been a governor. What else is there to say?

You never see anything. It's a huge tragedy we have on our hands in this country.

Yet we keep shouting ourselves hoarse about corruption. Nepotism/favoritism is the biggest form of corruption and the most important reason (alongside incompetence) why Nigeria is still stagnant and underdeveloped. When you put unqualified people in the bureaucracy ahead of more competent and capable people, the result is that mediocrity is institutionalised...and a million 'anti corruption' presidents cannot bring change with a mediocre bureaucracy. The bureaucracy is the engine room of government. If you fix it, then you have fixed government and by extension, you have fixed Nigeria.

Sad.

SalamRushdie:
All these ugly bitter bitches looking for who will join them is thier bitter single and lonely lives keep forming fake stories .single High profile lawyer that bought fiance sports car (what the name of the sport car na )...İf this liar knows how long it takes for someone to be a high profile lawyer she would have used another profession in her lies

Don't mind these annoying twitter bishes with their unending fake stories.

"she is now happily married to a man that adores her". Indeed. Let them keep deceiving themselves.

Shossie:
I had a boyfriend when I was in school who made an attempt, that was the end, even when we broke up, he still gives that "I will slap you" whenever he's mad, I knew this one would never change. Fastforward to my NYSC days, my bf will say you always make me feel inferior and then he raised his hand that day, tho, he apologised but lailai, I will never go back. I will rather remain single than to be someone's punching bag.

I suggest you take a long, hard, inward look at yourself to unearth the kind of provocative vibes you emit that bring out the beast in all the men that come your way.

Curvinus:
Those of you castigating the OP should take a few steps back and see how you're playing yourselves.

This is how you will be saying mind your business, then you go to Libya and sleep with somebody's wife and when they react, you say there is Xenophobia in South Africa.

Most of you saying mind your business don't seem to realize that spousal betrayal and infidelity can lead to clinical depression and possible death. It is one of the leading causes of failed marriages and broken homes plaguing the society.


Rather than criticizing, you recalcitrant rats should give Kudos to the OP for pointing out what is wrong with society. And quit playing the ostrich before Karma visits you with the one-handed slamming and jamming.

Lastly, the men among you doing this are not men. You are gays. I kill you fagets

I tell you. Nothing worse then males (not 'men') who have meekly succumbed to the proselytisation of Naija pseudo-feminism and its laughable ideas. These idiots are the kinds of cuckolds who know themselves for what they are and embrace their inferior positions in their marriages/relationships. They are often the last person in their neighbourhood to know that their wife is creeping around with a random dude down the street. Twaa to these androgynous wimps.

AreaFada2:
OP are you a learner?

Is it today you know that people are banging each other left, right & centre, married or not?

Funny that you had to be hanging out in a guest house "pucee-sniffing" to know.

Abeg volunteer your nose to the police to replace sniffer dog. Or to EFFC to smell looted money. That will stop your tatafo.

Regarding women & infidelity, we do not believe in juju anymore. That used to scare women. Now anything goes.

Polygamy has been part of African culture. Yes we can enumerate many demerits of it. But was polyandry ever in our culture? No. Many subsequent wives begin as gfs or bang-mates.

I guess if suddenly Europeans/Americans allow polygamy, we Africans will simply follow them. Follow follow is our way.

Like we are gradually, albeit reluctantly, following gayism now. Law or no law.

Anytime I see comments here by deluded pseudo-feministic bimbos, I just shake my head in pity. "If a man can cheat, a woman can too"... "If women should be faithful, then men should too". Things do not always follow a linear pattern in the real world. If not, if men can pay bride price, then women should pay groom price too.

With these kinds of ridiculous mindsets, this generation is in for it. Marriages would be more volatile than Boko Haram infested enclaves in the North East. That is for the mumu men who go ahead to marry women with these kinds of impractical orientations.

They want to change the aspects of culture and convention that do not favour them, but stubbornly hang on to those that favour them. It's more than laughable.

King44:
same here bro... almost every woman don turn olosho ... caught my neighbours wives and a gf of someone i know several times ... i work in one

I don co-manage guest house before for Lagos, and part of my hustle then involved working out proposals with many.. So the duty tour no be small. Wetin my eyes don see, my mouth no fit talk.... Na tey tey I don tire for women and their pretence (pretence is what makes their case much worse than men; most men don't pretend to be 'decent' or prudish the way these deceitful women do).

Na for 'ungodly' working hours bad thing dey happen pass... Between 11am and 3pm wey people go think say man or woman dey work, then go come hotel come knack short time. I've seen the most beautiful young and mature women with the most despicable looking older men, striding in and out of nondescript guest houses during working hours on random weekdays. These same women go dey form no-nonsense 'decency' outside, that's the most annoying part.

afroxyz:
You must be deranged. What do you mean by 'with men it is understandable'? If a woman can't cheat, then men shouldn't. Accept responsibility!

Sometimes I wonder whether most of you live in the same real world here in Nigeria, or your lives begin and end on the Internet.

Continue deceiving yourselves.

ifyalways:
Assumption is the mother of all fvck-ups!

The women could be widows,divorced or simply single mothers.

They go to hotel because of pokenosing, gossipy, neighbours and children like you yet your amebo long nose that is faster than your leg no go let them rest.

Long story short; face your beer and life.

The way most of your type slyly live in denial and clutch at straws is mind boggling. I wouldn't pretend that I don't know why, but let me reserve my comment on that. Suffice it to say that they always like to be caught red-handed, otherwise, there'll be a million ifs and isn'ts to deceive the gullible.

I can't count how many ACTIVELY AND FULLY married women I've caught in various hotels and guest houses in Lagos when I was still on ground. Even caught one of my friend's former neighbours, a formerly-thought-to-be 'decent' woman, coming to commit early morning adultery with a guy who lives down her street..in a highly coded and sleazy guest house.. . In the morning o, possibly after dropping the kids off at school.

Divorced women or single mothers my foot. I pity guys who don't do extensive wakabout or have their noses firmly on the ground. They would remain gleefully ignorant. There's too much filth going on.

Very good.

Dshocker:
Way back in surulere,shina pellar's father used to be the greatest 419er of all time....I just hope he didn't take over from his father

Unfortunately, you hoped in vain. That's all there is to be said.

cstr150:
Nigga chopping bittches like it's nothing. Bittches that were forming larger than life for that matter.
If I were a guy with no lay, I would seriously envy him.

Any guy that has enough money and enough randiness would Bleep bitches like it's nothing. He would even convert so-called 'decent' or 'high class' girls to bitches, while other clueless or broke guys would keep salivating, wishing, and idolising these girls on a mental pedestal that is far from reality.

It's just the way things work in Nigeria. Rich guys who know how to put their money to good use and who are sufficiently randy would make a mess of these our pathetic Nigerian females; 95% of them commercialise their bodies as long as the offer is tempting enough.

Rolings:
The moment you stop reading religious meaning to everything you start seeing clearly. Your write up would have made sense if you had not made it a religious thing. Crime is a crime no matter the religion of its perpetrators.
You are a religious and tribal bigot.

People like you are disgusting. So the only thing you can identify in this thought provoking and revealing article is bigotry? You are blind to the bitter facts and injustice exposed in the article, merely because you identify with the religion or tribe of the chief susoect? Why not comment on the MAIN POINT of the article? You people are just too disgusting.

Nna look at better food. Correct balanced diet for proper African man with a healthy appetite.

My specification anyway.

Full round boobs, flat tommy, hot body all round. Super hot chick. Lebanese man catch better meat.

And after all this, the girl will come and claim 'gender equality' with her husband abi? You see why oyinbo precepts of gender/spousal relations simply cannot apply here?

Yet some 'over-educated' girls here like to get things twisted.

I'll buy it for my beautiful wife before the end of the year.

I'll never accept these kinds of unprofessional behaviour by our security agencies, but when I go out and see young dudes with very shabby and 'irresponsible' looks, I shake my head. Nigeria is not Japan or Norway where you can claim fashion forward or metro-sexual or whatever else that catches your fancy. That's the simple fact.

You move around with an ugly and prominent tattoo, with an ugly beard (so-called beard gang b.s.), a rough, afro-ish hairdo, sagged jeans et al. You should be ready for whatever you get.
