Na govt go give you water too ?

wetin those billionaires deh do na?

your brain correct at all ? still waiting for govt water while millions of Nigerians are already abandoning national grid to generate their own electricty

Where do you guys come from?
Sometimes when I see these types of comments, I just wonder how uneducated people have the boldness to join platforms like these and reply to conversations.

Apart from the other things you said, this was particularly significant:
"Millions of Nigerians are already abandoning national grid"

Do you even know what the grid means?

Spicywave:
267 smart nonsense.

Those school cannot pass for poultries.

Don't mind them.
Simply because they equipped the principal office with a Pentium 2 desktop computer,
They now refer to it as "smart."

osuofia2:
The government have the opportunity advantage to leverage dangote refineries to our gains, they were playing and given license to marketers to import fuel, refused to sell crude to dangote in naira, Dangote was importing crude from abroad to feed his refinery and you want him to sell in naira. Nna go wait tire.

So in essence, you are saying that Nigeria is selling crude in Dollars to Dangote
So Dangote has to go and buy it at a higher price in the same Dollars from another country


Abi did that country sell it to him in Naira?


Well, let me inform you: the oil trade is much more intrinsic than the Nairaland post suggests. There are factors that are beyond the government's control. The language or the currency of crude oil, everywhere, is dollars. Going against this system brings sanctions from the powers that set the rules. Trading refined crude is not subject to the same sanctions.

Dangote needs to sell his refined crude to people who mandate him to buy it from specific suppliers. Without this, they don't buy. And the market isn't something where, if one doesn't buy, you simply jump ship to another buyer who is asking you to come and sell to him . The markets work on long-term contracts. It's not akara.

Dialpad:
Is Dangote allowed to price his products in USD? I thought it was illegal in Nigeria

Don't worry,
We will learn.

Mirasteel:
Really? are you serious? most of you here are something else.

An average Gaza has fared way better than you without lifting a finger to do any work all his life.
In fact, studies show that up to 80% of the people in Gaza and the West Bank have never done ANY kind of work worth earning in their lives simply because of the international aid afforded to them in their place as a people of Special Status Victims.

LordReed:
Bro leave that thing. Restaurants catering to the ultra wealthy do even worse than this over priced akara.

What do you mean by "ultra wealthy"
I guess it is only in Nigeria that you see those "ultra wealthy."

But here in Europe, CEOs of the best capital investment firms take Starbucks coffee, even celebrities shop at normal malls, and government officials use normal pubs.

But only in Nigeria is there something like "ultra wealthy."
And I am sure that the "ultra wealthy" people you are talking about are the ones your social media skit makers like Carter Efe, Nas Boi, Wizkid, etc. are talking about.
Na dem dey deceive una.




Highly expensive restaurants in Europe are not even for the "wealthy."
They are for people who want to spend a good "once in a season" evening with their loved ones and family.
But una dey do "ultra wealthy" only restaurants.

Image123:
Who will organize it and who will pay?

Ok Sir.
Your question is too deep.
You sound very, very, very intelligent.
Too intelligent for me, so I have to skip it for other important things.

otipoju:
Lol. After a Masters degree in USA.
I don't know where you were in 1998 though.

Sorry, I dont consider exams as tough. You get the syllabus and past questions and prepare for it.

Online big boys.



USA indeed.
The kind of USA that doesn't need notes, but only a "syllabus and past questions."
This guy, na JAMB wey your mind, wey you still dey struggle with, be the USA masters wey you dey infer.


Because the last time I heard of "Syllabus and Exams" was in Jamb.

For both my Master's and my Doctorate degrees, I never once used the word "syllabus."
And I don't need to tell you where I obtained those degrees from. I will let you enjoy the "online big man" position.

amancalledgodd:
God go purnish u for tagging me.
If you tag me you go lose your family member this month. Na by force to tag me.
I no want any muguuu mods taghing me

Typical of those who say "school na scam."
Very typical.

sulaak:
Sometimes it is wise not to respond to posts beyond your intellectual capability.

See your mouth.
You went to ChatGPT, dug up extreme outliers, and then went straight to YouTube to search for them.



It's just like me saying, "All Jets need a runway," and then you run and ask ChatGPT about "jets that don't need a runway," and it replied with VTOL Jets. Whereas you can see clearly that ALL jets use runways, and VTOLs are outliers.

Again, I repeat, you just want to sound sophisticated.
You don't need to.
Just read, be true to yourself, and be humble.

Oga Bayo, +You should even be happy for the UN to investigate it.
I don't know why you are scared.
Why are you worried and scared about such a request?

otipoju:
George Weah had to go back to the University to be cinsider3d as knowledgeable enough to become president of Liberia.

Oshimen does not need to school in Nigeria. He can afford the best of the best anywhere else...without writing JAMB.

Wilfred Ndidi made sure he finished his bachelor's degree before leaving Leicester

And you somehow think that schools out there are better than Nigerian ones because they "don't write JAMB?"
What if you discover that they write far tougher exams than we do before entry?

Do you know what an SAT is?

amancalledgodd:
Education is objective oga.
Abeg no tag me again i no go even reply you

School is theory!
Oga no tag me abeg.

Just remain at least a little money for the day a serious President will take charge.

No finish am.

Godfullsam:
What nonsense?!

Why not send the kids home to go and have decent hair cut.

If any of the student brought this kind of weird and disgusting hair style to the school, will the school allow them entrance?

The parents should take actions against the school authority.

See mouth
Oya, go and talk to them na.


Funny enough, all of your types that are struggling hard to form "modern" went through worse than these.

amancalledgodd:
Anything they teach you in unilag you can learn times 10 of those info on chatgpt..
School na scam. Education is not scam chief

What is school?
What is education?

Is school not education?
You see why people like you shouldn't be going around saying "school na scam?"
You are contradicting yourself on very basic terminologies in a bid to sound woke, and you are failing on it.

I would rather believe America.

Mansa6:
my dad at almost 88,since the 70s,has been a multimillionaire...in ANY currency on earth...just like me...pls don't believe me..I beg you not to believe me ..do your findings...I can help you with some "snippets"..and yes ..I MAKE BOAST OF IT...the worst you can say is that I'm too boastful and arrogant...

I accept...

Another online "I am a big man."

Trust me, he is a police officer.
That is how they are.

yarimo:
Nothing wrong in buying at that price if you have the money

There is something wrong with wasting money.
It is only an African big man mentality that makes people think that "if you have money, spend money."

You will NEVER see the CEO of Citadel buy a $300 plate of spaghetti when he can obtain a $20 plate. But you will see a "oney na water" Cubanna chief priest spend N5 million to drink a bottle of wine in front of a camera because he thinks he has the money to do it and needs to show he does.

Word wey una no wan hear,
Una must hear.




When we told you guys about the risk of the monopolist in a semi-capitalist economy, una dey cough.
There is a reason why we are called a third-world nation.
If you don't respect that reason, you will want to behave like a capitalist nation, and you will hand the power of a capitalist to a person in a third-world nation.

Freshtruth:
Don't ever quote me here again , am not your mate in terms of assets

Normal rants of an online bigman.

The dude knows how much they have pumped into hiring bots on social media and Nairaland with just N30,000 monthly.

LagosOrigin:
He doesn't really need the degree because he has become successful

Do you know how much of real estate that osimhen has to his name in Lagos and Abuja?

He's made for life

Again,
What do you mean by "successful"
A man who has gotten to the peak of what you refer to as success just came out to tell you that he still feels unaccomplished without a degree.
You, who have not gotten anywhere, are telling him he is wrong.

All international bodies have been captured by the gang of Arabs third worlders who think those are the best stage for their activism.
Now almost every jeehardeest is working in the UN office as a "Rapporteur." Doing just one thing: protecting the vicious actions of their religious folks, and working tirelessly to demonize Israel, Christianity, and the West entirely.


It's just like walking into a federal government agency during the Buhari era. You will think everywhere is Kano.
That is the same thing with the ICC, UN, UNHRC, WHO, etc. If you walk in, you will think that you have walked into an agency in Yemen, or Pakistan.

Mirasteel:
That's because the largest population in Nigeria speak and understand hausa.

Which is the largest population in Nigeria?

Gotocourt:
OGA, go into manufacturing sector and rest.

Is that where the certificate is?

Freshtruth:
oga graduate full my fish poultry

And you usually wish you were as knowledgeable as they are.
That is, if you even have any fish, poultry, or you are just an online "I am a very big man."



Even the big boys in the Onitsha or Alaba market, although richer than their employees, will always wish they had the opportunity to be as learned as their employees.

But one small poultry farm guy simply thinks he is better than his employees because they are learned, and he is not, but employs them.

LagosOrigin:
Wether osimhen return to school or not, he's made for life and he achieved all that without education

"Made for life" is exactly what you are getting wrong.
If he were truly made for life, he wouldn't have yearned for education.
To people like you, money is everything in this world.
So when someone makes money, they are automatically made for life.

And such a mindset is usually sponsored by POVERTY.
I can prove it.

But one small dude somewhere in Nairaland will rush out to tell you, "School na scam."
The funny thing is that unimportant men make slogans to justify their own unimportance.

A dude who can't pass exams enough to qualify for higher education will say, "School na scam."
A dude who has obtained a degree but hasn't had any opportunity to be valuable to himself with it will say, "School na scam."

But a person who has created value for himself and his society via the degree he has obtained will never say the same.

sulaak:
Nigeria doesn't have as many airports as Kenya and SA. Airports are not just for passengers but also for security (drones) and cargo.

Airport for drones?

Lolz....little men trying to sound sophisticated.
When did drones even start having their own airport?

Even the private runways of private jets are not referred to as "airports", but somehow, a guy who wants to form a sophisticated image is referring to the take-off and landing points of a technology that these days doesn't even need to run before take-off, as "airports."

MIKOLOWISKA:
talk is cheap
Who him press epp

Do you know the reason why his words are in the newspapers and your words appear only in the reply part of Nairaland?
