Thats not true! The USA owed only 20-22% to itself. The remaining 80% is owed to the federal reserve bank and the public.

Sheuns:
Guy. USA is owing itself at least 60% of their debt. That’s why they’re not bothered. They can sort it quite easily.

Nigeria on the other hand is owing countries, IMF and world bank.

If you follow the US politics very well, you will know this is nothing but a negotiation tatics to blackmail Nigeria into one deal or the other. The painful thing is that some myopic nigerians (the usual suspects) supported or even called for this baseless christian genocide intervention. Unfortunately for them, majority of these so called "aids" goes to NGOs, civil societies and smes many of whom will suffer for no funds from USA to their foundations no more. More like scoring an own goal against themself

This IMF representative's statement is confusing. He is either incompetent, lazy to do research or just being mischevious. You said spending not reported in budget and in the same breadth stating because they are extra budgetary spendings on projects. Yet a simple google search listed many roads/infrastruture projects funded from outside budget soure presidential infrastructre fund, tax credits and loan from AFDB/World Bank. So what other report is this congolese guy looking for again?

Ndume, be thinking logically before talking . Have you presented the idea or sponsor a bill about it

Dont mind him, always playing to the gallery

Kalulu44:
See I don't watch any Fox news or CNN to know about any propaganda, all the news I am hearing of Trump is on Nairaland so I base my analysis on it.

In the USA, the CNN/CBS/ABC/MSNBC are propanganda machines for the democrats and the FOX news is the sole propanganda machine for the replublicans. They report nothing but personal bias and opinions. So to get the real truth you have to listen to oppposing parties to extract facts. The truth is trump is hated deeply right now

Companies valuation are based on future prospect not current performance. Investors believe tesla will achieve full self driving before anyone. If that happens the share price will even sky rocket to the moon. So its a if not a SCAM as many of you here keeps mouthing. Also, no tesla investor is looking for dividend payout when the stock its self has appreciated 200X.

For Spacex, any experienced investor familiar with IPOs in the US know that you dont touch an IPO stock in its first 6 months of listing. You wait for price discovery before buying. This is not peculiar to spacex although the spacex valuation maybe slightly too high but in the end the company's fundamentals are quite strong and there is a big moat in their space travel business.

Trump's admin is using yet another silly excuse to ban Nigerians. The guy is racist to the bone.

During his first term, he claimed the issue was Nigeria's lack of a biometric passport system. We fixed that, and Biden later reversed the pointless ban.

Now the new excuse is government document forgery after losing in court. No matter what new excuse he comes up with next, he is going to lose in court again.

He will probably be convicted but if you know nigeria's history very well he wont be going to jail. They will most likely sentence him with an option of fine which he will conviniently pay, thats even if the case is not thrown out on technicality. Big men (politicians) dont go to jail in Nigeria.

UK and political instability are 5 & 6

You have made no point and no sense . Go and sleep

The senseless one here is the one who dropped an empty comment with no content. And get off my mention, my statement was meant for the discerning minds only not trolls!

This dude thinks he is smart. We get your format. Provoke the govt so they can react come after you and you can in turn use that as evidence to seek asylum in whatever country you tweeting from. This is stale format and no one is falling for that.

Some ladies use this same format with endsars 2020. It wont work this time.

This is good news for many property owners around lagos coastal road. The useless 150m rule which federal govt made based on this NIWA act can now be challenged by legal owners

LegendHero:
Nope, some African and Asian countries too were impacted.

But na naija own guys dey interested in as per se we be naija.

It is worst that even people that join the military with their green card are not getting citizenship. They seems to be pausing that too.

I like the one of pausing citizenship for the military guys if true. Many of them were everywhere on social media last year making videos, speaking bad about nigeria because they promise them citizenship. One was even saying he was ready to invade nigeria with us army, lets see how that goes now

Almost everything you stated up there is true for every other developed country, but one thing sets America apart: as much as it is the land of opportunity and great wealth, you are one terminal disease or medical emergency away from bankruptcy. Insurance companies and the pharma mafia have taken over U.S. healthcare, inflating the cost of services.

presiade:
Lol first-time travelers are not difficult to spot. Trolleys are paid for at most international airports including George Bush Intercontinental Airport, Houston, Texas. Nigeria is not perfect, but all these are not unique to Nigeria.

Also, I still used MMA a few weeks back, and no one forced me to use any “airport taxi”. You can always book an Uber ride before you arrive or after you’ve landed—your mode of transportation out of the airport is totally your choice. An Uber ride from the airport to places around Ikeja costs less than N10K, depending on traffic situation.

Dont mind her. Overtly exaggerating! Airport taxi is a choice and i prefer it actually because they can help carry my luggage for me right from inside the airport. And if you can price haggle very well no one can cheat you. I remember a driver recently charging me 50k but i paid 20k eventually. These experiences are some of the things you dont get abroad that makes nigeria unique.

AAADE:
Legally you notify your landlord your intention of quiting his property or he himself notify you to quit his property at not less than half the period of tenancy ie

1 year tenancy: notification period- 6month
3month: notification period- 45 days
6month : notification period- 3month
1month: notification period-15 days

This period will allow either of you to plan and execute a fresh arrangements.

This only suffice on their old tenancy agreement/contract. The moment the landlord breached the contract by increasing the rent, they are not entitle to any 6 month notice.

Op, as a tenant you have options too:
1. Refuse and challenge the increase. By lagos 2011 tenancy you can challenge the unreasonability of this 100% increase in a magistrate court and the landlord cannot evict while the case is on

2. Reject and negotiate a lower rent

3. Leave on july 31 at the end of your tenancy without giving notice unless your contract / agreement state otherwise

This one is whining Dangote so he can build refinery in his region. Unless he is ready to support him with dollars, it is a pipe dream

For every carrier / trafficker caught, there is a baron here in town walking free, gallivanting and painting the streets red flaunting their ill gotten wealth and oppressing their neighbors. The painful part is that people never learn; while they continue to praise these same barons camoflaging as "billionares" at parties and elsewhere, others are aspiring to become new carriers and the cycle continues.

Now that he has declared 70k monthly earnings, i hope we wont hear its AI or some other stories if lagos govt start asking for tax and their share of it. These fakebrities and lies.

HacheNoire:
We need to nationalize our resources but we would be called terrorists.

Nigeria is a cash cow for these multinationals

You are looking for trouble. Nationalize so that they will tell us we need freedom & democracy or they have found wmd?

ruggedtimi:
Possible frontman for politicians.

Most definitely! Watch his political friends closely. Ppl like saraki, sanusi etc.

He was not the only one. A few of these bank executives are money launderers for the politicians

Let's see what the Israelis and American hackers can do.

You are grossly misinformed. Iranian scientist and engineers are some of the best in the world. A lot of them are in the US universities(stanford & MIT) and industries suceeding. Many are leading top AI research teams at open AI, anthropic and deepmind.

KobolanderSegun:
Ha ba. You and your plopaganda . The Romans killed one third of the Jews. The real problem is Abraham had brothers sisters , that is why Lot was his Nephew.
Abraham is the father of the Jewish race..The problem is Abraham had brothers and sisters from the same parents.

To let you fully understand I'm Yoruba. If I create a new race with a Yoruba woman the kids will still be Yoruba.
The New Race Abraham created was not a race of the flesh it was a race of the spirit. That is why Jesus was born a Jew in line with Abraham

If you read a Bible the Jews in Jesus time would say ," Abraham was our father " and Jesus would say ," Abraham is not your father, if Abraham was your father you will believe in me "
Meaning that Abraham and Jesus are tied to each other not by flesh alone but by faith. That is why Christians become Born Again by confessing Jesus as their lord and savior.


Abraham was Aramaic like his Iranian, Palestinian, brothers and sisters

Ah ah, my brother… slow down small. This one you typed, na full Sunday sermon you drop for historical discussion. Nobody call you come preach revival here.

We are talking about documented history, not Bible class or born-again testimony. So I don’t know where you carry this your Abraham family meeting come from.

Oga, park well and stay your lane. Not every conversation be altar call. Some of us are discussing historical records, not spiritual genealogy.

Next time read to understand the topic first before you open microphone. Because as it stands, this one pass your level small. Abeg off your mic

DomPerignon:
Those are Jews and not Israelites.

Israel was to the north and had split from Judah.

Judah was then overran by Middonites aka Edomites or as it was then called Iduomites.
This became Jews.

Real Israel got overan by the Assyrian empire and later the Hellenstic Greeks.

Israelites then intermarried with the Greeks and Assyrians and became the Samaritans.

The closest link to Samaritans today are the Palestinians and Lebanese.

The Jews back then got genocided by Hadrain with only a handful indivuals numbering 360 allowed to leave Palestine.

A genetic bottle neck then arose and they were forced to marry their women to Turkic Mongloids as no one in Europe wanted to be with them.

The mongrels that came out of this then moved further north in Europe and settled in the Caucuses and intermingled with an Indo-Aryan race known as the Kharzas who are originally from a tribe in India known as the Thuggees. Its from these Thuggees we get the English word Thug as the Thuggees were known as a criminal race.

The Kharzas aka Thuggees were then conquered by a Russian Viking King who demanded they converted to either Islam (so as to be ruled by the Ottoman Islamic empire) or convert to Christianity so as to come under the Eastern Orthodox church and thus Russian influence. The minority Iduomites then suggested they convert to their own polluted and heretic religion of Judaism aka Phariseeism so as to avoid being under Islamic or Christian rule.

These Kharzars and their Iduomites are who are now claiming Jews.

Note that they never refer to themselves as Israelites but rather Jews or Israeli.

We are saying the same thing. The whole point is that, genetically, there is no such thing as Jewish DNA anymore (as an offshoot of Judah). They were completely wiped out by the Romans after the Jewish rebellion of 66 A.D. in Jerusalem, which killed a Roman governor. The current pretenders are Ashkenazi Jews (converted to judaism) who are from present-day Turkiye before they were Islamized and migrated to eastern europe.

DomPerignon:
Israel ceased to exist sometime in the 3rd century BC.

Present day Israel is not Israel and will never be.

How you guys can think a country formed via terrorism by a bunch of atheistic Soviet communist Khazars is the restoration of the Davidic Kingdom of old, only you guys can explain.

Mordern Israel is a joint project of the luciferian Anglo-Judean Freemason order and the Sabbatean Frankist Satanic cult .

Exactly! Only correction is that they went extinct in 70 A.D. roughly 2000 years ago! This current ones there are pretenders. They are converted jews not the original ethnic jews.

Dtribeless:
All the tech in the world. Check before responding. You think even US ally for love? Almost all major tech is of jewish origin.

I hate it when ppl categorically state falsehood and falacy with their full chest. It is a blatant lie that all major tech is of jewish origin. First of all, being jewish / judaism is a religion like christianity and only 1% of the tech innovators are jewish. Majority are atheist or agnostic. About 33% are christians. Please stop confidently spreading this falsehood and misinformation here. This is 2026!

Gerhards:
Are you alright? How did US created Bokoharam? It was created by Ayatollah follower Sheikh Ibrahim El-Zakzaky , next time get your facts right before you put yourself in trouble

That is not true. BH and all other terrorist groups in Nigeria are mostly Sunni Muslims who follow a Saudi-funded Salafist brand of extremism.

This is exactly my fear with allowing the US / CIA free reign into Nigeria under the cover of curbing christian genocide. Before you know it they will start arming terrorists and armed groups from different parts of the country. The moment they have disagreement with the govt at any time, they will activate their sleeper cells. Truly, dealing with these Americans requires a special kind of wisdom!

What a holistic and intelligent take from Col McGregor. This is a big picture view of the issue. Trump has unintentionally made a martyr of the Ayatollah. His death is becoming a rallying point for previously quarreling Arabs and persians, despite their Sunni and Shia divisions. Now they see one common enemy, Israel. This is a war the USA is going to regret joining. Even domestically, a majority of Americans are against this senseless war. The US was winning the negotiations, and Iran was going to virtually capitulate until this misguided decision to make a martyr of this man.

Botragelad:
Blah blah blah.
This ain’t your local politics nonsense where you push propaganda.
Tell Iran to quit threatening to wipe out Jews and Americans.
Tell them to stop funding and arming terrorists to hit Israel.

And yeah, regime change is needed, Iran should go back to its real self, not stay this Islamic theocracy mess destabilizing middle east.
You don’t like hearing that? Go cry about it a million times, I don’t care.

Will you keep quiet? Are you a mossad or CIA agent on this platform. How does an unprovoked so called "preventative" attack on another country solve anyhing but start chaos everywhere. Sitting down behind your keyboard, typing gibberish and urging unneccessary war propaganda. This is not video game, its real people's life and blood at stake.

Its a nothing burger really, there are 774 local govts recognized by the constitution. The land must currently fall in one of the local council. Whichever state that council currently belongs, own the land. No argument!
