Look at the first five responses to the news! These are the supposedly educated Nigerians! If the "educated" ones could respond like this, one could only imagine what the responses of uneducated ones would be. We're in serious danger in this country if this is how most Nigerians would react to indiscipline we've seen so far since Monday.
No common sense, no nothing!

The USA can only print based on the demand for dollar ...if u print more than the demand it would become valueless over time ...

The USA is backed by the demand for dollar I was trying to explain to someone who is not familiar with Marco economics ...the gold standard is the easiest to explain

...and can it create this demand...for instance, pressuring countries to accept loans through the international agencies, using AID programs to sabotage the economic production of weaker nations and conditioning the countries to be reliant on American imports, formenting wars here and there in order to sell arms and create a need for massive rebuilding (requiring imports) after the wars (fact: since the creation of the USA in 1776 no 5 years can pass by without the US being involved in a war, battle, or military conflict, many times several at the same time. They end one just to start another almost immediately without end)

mrvitalis:

I was given a simplified explanation an ideal case

Noted

mrvitalis:

Firstly yes it's almost a sham ...but your can make your money first class money buy buying up gold and manufacturing so people would have know option that to buy from you ....at that state you can demand to sale only with your money

If Nigeria was the sole supplier of say oil to the world we can demand oil must be bought with naira ....this would make nations have naira as reserve incase they want to buy oil

We would print the naira but not so much that it becomes valueless ...so we only print based on the demand

@the bolded, I don't think we can be allowed to have such privilege come what may; if need be, such ambition will be suppressed by physical force ( if regime change through sowing chaos by backing or arming rebels fails). As powerful as China is, they have not been able to enforce international transactions with their own currency.

Only armed Might, preferably nuclear arms, can enforce and make naira convertible.

mrvitalis:

Dollar is a first class money ... they have a gold reserve backing the dollar .....two the USA manufacturer alot so u just use dollar to buy from them

But here we import alot so we need dollar to trade internationally as no one would accept naira

"No country currently backs its currency with gold, but many have in the past, including the U.S.; for half a century beginning in 1879, Americans could trade in $20.67 for an ounce of gold. The country effectively abandoned the gold standard in 1933, and completely severed the link between the dollar and gold in 1971."
--google

US as the most powerful nation on earth, can print USD at will to stimulate their economy. Weaker countries are not allowed to do that, but US can give you loan at great compound interest out of the USD they just printed.

African countries are still in chains. Independence, sovereignty is a sham. Our leaders are just errand boys of the master.

mrvitalis:

First you need to understand what naira means ....naira is a second level money meaning it is backed by first class money

Here is what I mean 100 naira is a receipt that I have 100 naira worth of dollars lodged with the CBN and can take it anytime

In Nigeria this receipt can serve as money ...but if I want to import u have to change it back to real money then import what you want

When you earn dollars , CBN gives u naira and keeps the dollars ....printing more naira means CBN owing more people

More people would demand dollars , based on the fact no equivalent dollar was earned the price of dollars would raise

The naira I your hands lose value so you lose money ..so printing more money is like robbing you of your hard earned money

Thanks for your sagacious response. Does this not mean that the sovereignty of the country with this secondary money is a sham? From your analysis the countries operating the primary money i.e USD, can as well print as much as they want and purchase goods and services with ordinary paper, or grant loans with huge interest? Yes you can redeem their purchases by your imports, but they can frustrate or control what you want to import. Can u throw more light on this?

What of el rufai own that lasted the same?

soulbroken761:
I'm extremely introverted. It has always affected my relationships with people; family, colleagues, and lovers. I've not been in a real relationship before because of my communication issues. So I thought at 24 years, I need to learn how to be in relationship if I get a good guy. My female classmates are married or engaged and I felt left behind
I met my guy and started staying days in his house at a go. I thought it was for the best. He is a good guy even though very broke. Honestly I put myself in this situation.
We would make out but because I was a virgin, coupled with the fact that I have extremely low sex drive, I always told him to stop when it gets to that point. Even his finger hurt like crazy. It caused little quarells but he always told me he would never force it because he loves me.
So this afternoon we were making out as usual and he started touching me down there. It was so dry and it hurt like crazy, as if the skin was peeling off. I think the fan contributed to the dry ess. Anyway I begged him to stop but he wouldn't and I was almost crying. He started trying to force his dickk in but it didn't enter. All the while, I was begging him while trying not to attract neighbors. It got so painful that I bit his arm very hard and that was when he stopped.

He was very very angry, asking what I did that for. I told him he put me through a lot of pain. He went out and came back at night. I saw he was still angry so I slept in the living room, trying to be understanding and not piss him off further. He came and lovingly moved me to the bedroom. I thought all was well and dozed off.

Only to feel my mouth being gagged all of a sudden. I was still confused because I never expected such a thing. He said he had been thinking of what to do to me for biting him. He put clothes in my mouth and tied my mouth very tight, bound my arms together at the back, forced my legs open. I was crying and begging not to let it be like that but he slapped my face.

He grabbed oil and poured it and began forcing his dick inside until it entered and he rapedd me. I just waited helplessly for it to be over. I bled so much. I cried in the bathroom and came out to leave. He started begging, saying he loves me, etc.

I wanted to WhatsApp my dad to tell him something terrible just happened to me but my heart broke when I saw his picture. My parents really tried.

I just wanted to pour out my feelings in this post. I already know it was my fault even though I feel robbed. I would have given it to him if he had been patient. I hope to get over it soon. Typing with tears. I will shamefully get something at the pharmacy in the morning so that I don't get pregnant

@bolded, gives the story away as fake. One man stuffs cloth into mouth without his fingers bitten off. One man tieing hand behind back, and laying the woman on her back. Her hands would surely break, and no mention of that. Sorry. Story is not plausible, even as fiction. It would have been more believable if the woman was drugged.

Dear OP,

Please Do this:

WRITE DOWN EXACTLY WHAT YOU HAVE POSTED HERE, WORD FOR WORD, AS A LETTER TO YOUR HUSBAND, AND HAND IT TO HIM TO READ.

He will weep and beg for your forgiveness. Forgive him and together discuss and chart a new course for yourselves.

Thank me later.

Oya, cooper, answer the query

fairfora:
na lie. The truth is, every lady or wife sees her husband or bf as a potential cheat, no matter how religious they could be. Again, they don't want their men to assist others regardless of how deep they are in their religious beliefs. If I'm sending money to someone for instance, my madam would turn her eagle eyeball my phone, even if the recipient is a male. That's when she would remember a bag she's been eyeing and would like to buy

Without my consent, she would pick my phone and be studying all the alerts on my phone like somebody preparing for cambridge. Whereas in a whole year, I may not even look st her phone more than 4 times...what would I do with it?. While sleeping at times, she would just grab my phone and be reading messages. There was a time I greeted a lady and addressed her dear...how are you today? I was served a query that day. I now showed her on same phone where i addressed a male customer dear...as in dear Sunday, dear azeez, etc but she didn't see that one women!!!!

That shows you the predicament you are in. That person you see as a partner sees you as a tool or resource to be mined, controlled, manipulated and kept in check for her service. In short, to be exploited.

"The most natural advantage any young man can have is to have your enemies overestimate your faults, and your friends underestimate your virtues". - Mario Puzo (Don Corleone speaking as 'The Godfather')

If you know you know

Dear OP,

what has happened is that your material circumstances relative to that of your spouse has changed, and thus the
Dynamics of the relationship has also changed since the initial period. As a female you have unknowingly changed from whomever he thought he knew, and he is presently recoiling in shock. He will eventually adjust himself to what he is experiencing and evolve his own peculiar response to your new and present self. His failure to get a grip on the situation and engage your new personality will see him continue the withdrawal and aloofness. And that means he has accepted the death of that relationship.

Parkleader:

Do you mean monetary help? They say behind a successful man there is always a woman and in the bible God created a woman to be a helper to the man
Maybe you mean monetary help

The balance of ALL help (monetary or otherwise), or if we can borrow from the language of physics, the NET help must always be in favour of the man. In any romantic relationship the female will make sure that the most help is rendered by the man, else it's all over.

"Behind every successful man..." Yes, because the women seek out the successful men or the men with such potential and line up behind them.

Parkleader:

Bla bla bla, what about those that don't do anything for you after doing all that you mention, which one is better

The ones that give nothing at all have seen through your fake efforts to entice them, that you have nothing they need or want. They just collect your offering and move on to more worthy prospects.

You don't get it, do you? ANY SPENDING ON YOU IS AIMED AT HER FUTURE BENEFIT FROM YOU. It's not about helping you. Never expect altruism from a woman you are romantically involved with. In fact, don't be surprised if she kicks you when you are down and pokes fun at you. A man who requires help is totally worthless to a woman.I know, this pill might be too bitter for you to swallow but that's just the way it is.

There is palpable fear in Ondo State at the moment as a man suspected of having Coronavirus has absconded from the University of Medical Sciences Teaching Hospital Complex in ondo town.

The patient, who was admitted at the Accident and Emergency unit of the facility, reportedly took to his heels on Saturday evening.

SaharaReporters gathered that the situation was already causing anxiety among some of the medical practitioners at the hospital, who were on duty at the time of the incident.

A senior consultant, who works at the hospital, confirmed the incident to SaharaReporters.

He noted that though the case was still being suspected, the patient was showing symptoms of the virus.

He said, "The suspected COVID-19 patient is Ehibhanre Hansen, age 26 and was reported to have arrived from Edo State.

"Some of the symptoms presented was nasal discharge dry cough, body weakness, difficulty in breathing. The patient however, appears stable in face mask and dirty disposable gloves.

“We should be on the lookout as patient might probably show up anywhere for treatment."

NASAL DISCHARGE. This rules out covid. It's not one of the symptoms. This may just be ordinary seasonal flu.

The last thing on the mind of a genuinely sick person is to run away from treatment.

christejames:
Spurious and senseless assumptions.


One fact about population that you don't know is that the whole population of the world currently (about 7 billion people), if they all converge together in one place like say northern Nigeria, they won't fill up the whole land there. You think because the Chinese are in billions the earth is very small to accommodate them? Go and check their population density.

Another thing is that China as a country is amongst the largest in the world after Russia, India, Brazil.



One thing you should know about the closeness of China to Africa is that, just like every world powers, they are spreading their clouts all over the world. You think Africa is the only place the Chinese are investing and divesting?

Go check the Middle East and South America for example then you will know their investment here is just a drop in the ocean.

The OPs Pan-Africanism is commendable but the allegations are baseless. Foreign investment in Africa is definitely not due to altruism but what the OP alleged is farfetched and unrealistic.

You are well informed, sir. A good rebuttal!

If your girlfriend spends on you know this:

1) you have spent heavily on her and she's thanking you with a little from your loot.

2) She believes that you have or will SOON have good money and you will soon reciprocate her good gestures 10 fold. If this your potential fails to materialize in a short time, you will know what's up very fast.

3) you are a cuckold just for her entertainment. She has a big god or gods that supply her needs and she can afford to share some of her loot to encourage your performance.

The natural way in relationship is a ceaseless flow of material resources from the male to the female as long as it lasts, if not even after. Seek to pervert that at your own peril.

Lol! This was Trump logic. Oya, medical experts, answer it!

delpee:


Haba! This has nothing to do with Ramadan. The points have been well articulated by officials several times over. If you’ve been reading about cases that were publicized, you’ll understand that many now don’t know how and when they got infected. That’s community infection. Public transportation, markets, shopping malls, offices, hospitals, schools,Churches, Mosques, restaurants, hotels and clubs are places where many people can get infected at once. If we keep these places open when we have not tested a large number of people, we’ll be taking a huge risk. That’s what happened in Italy, Spain and US. In South Korea, it exploded when one infected person went to Church!

Honestly, I understand the hunger bit which is what I think we should address. Relaxing the lockdown now may not be in our best interests. We don’t have the facilities to cope with massive infection. Only when we survive can we reboot our economy.

People should help the less privileged as much as possible by providing food especially for them to stay at home. I’ve realized that toiletries are much needed too.

May God help us fight our battle against this unseen enemy. Amen

You are a rich madam, or govt, or big company worker. Small and medium scale businesses or companies will start laying off workers at the end of this month if work cannot resume.

maasoap:


Covid-19 doesn't understand sentiments and emotions. Inter states lockdown remains inter states lockdown, let's stop all these silly excuses and do the right thing. Everyone should trade within their states of residence.
Let's stop expose ourselves as hypocrites by condemning the governments for not taking proactive measures in one hand and still condemning governments on the other hand for taking proactive measures. Nigerians!!!





And they must disobey inter states lockdown before they could eat?



Who still doesn't understand that covid-19 is not good for world's economy, that it has brought economy down on its knees. You can only engage in commerce when you are alive and healthy.
24 women observing social distance in that small truck?

From your comments, you display total lack of human empathy and sympathy. You don't care about the downtrodden especially the frivolous detaining of the women ( mothers) who have kids waiting for them at home. It seems you are just a paid agent doing your work. No problem. Everyday for the thief (Naija govt) one day for the owner of the house (suffering masses). One day go be one day.

This is total nonsense. Government is insensitive and heartless. These are poor market women on their way to buy supplies they sell at their home markets for the upkeep of their children. Perhaps their children will go hungry this week because of this.

Abeg no try am o! If you still crave to live more years.
