RepoMan007:
no.
Govt should buy and resell with minimal profit. That's not subsidy. They beat greedy middlemen.

From what I heard 2 years ago. Some politicians are using it to frustrate the ruling party. They use their wealth to target strategic grains like beans they know are grown in specific area by offering farmers bulk price before harvest. They harvest it into their barns and wait until the limited supply in market start sending prices up then they resell.
It is both political and business move. Two birds gone with a single sling.

If govt import and resell, no opposition middleman can frustrate a ruling party.

.
That's why I said, it's sounds good but not practicable...
.
1. Govt cannot manage the intricacies of buying and selling... The cahin of command and paper work of govt won't allow is flow..
.
2. Civil servants will frustrate this proposal, since they're the ones incharge, they'll sell to their cronies & associate majorly & declare different price tag a govt
.
3. If govt use consultants or firms to drive this initiative, the landing/cost will go up, the consultants will also be govt friends and cronies
.
4. As of now, Govt cannot buy the needed grains to mitigate this problem off the shelf, it'll need time & all, 2-5months... And there seem to be no time

RepoMan007:
I am not talking of giving money to people to go and buy it. I am talking o govt buying it in bulk and allowing the people pay closer to the real value for it.

..
In a nutshell, govt should subsidise foodstuffs for now
..
Well it sounds good, but I doubt it'll be good in practice....
..
Nigerian love free things, if the govt starts that now, it'll be hard to end it... Just like the due subsidy

For no reason.... Dony try it ... You may regret it forever ...
..
.
Was speaking with a 60+ man recently & you could see the pain & hear regret in his voice as a result of marying out of pitt or guit...
..
.
There are some regrets you shouldn't remember everyday of your life & still carry to hour grave.

Omo, Government is hard, public service isn't easy
..
.
There's more to this... You need to have good and very smart politicians as advisers for you to perform as a Technocrat in Government...... Else, you'll make expensive errors & be on the defensive always.
..
.
As regards this issue, both parties ( minister & kd Gov ) are wrong & right at the same time....

You are saying the fact, the crowed there is always too much, I pass there everyday to lekki...

My wife passport and mine has expired, I never even get time to to process it..

I'm always scared of the crowed, because I want to do for my daughter also, but I know when I'm gingered enough I will call my mum to help me call Fuad our local government chairman to link me up with the officers that will assist me...

You can renew and pay online, you'll just go in physically for capturing

.
You can also chose a less busy capturing center to make it easier...
..
In my case, I chose Abeokuta immigration office for capturing & it was relatively faster & cheaper compared to Centers in Lagos..
..
On the day of capturing.... Some people came all the way from BADAGRY,Lekki etc to capture there

LewisHamilton15:
Last week I proposed to my long time girlfriend and fiancee and she accepted me.

We discussed a whole range of topics and we are convenienced that we can live our lives together. But one thing we disagree on is the issue of house: she said we must build a house together before settling down but I suggested we tie the knot and live in a rented apartment before planning to build our personal house but she insisted we must build.

She said we will contribute money to build together, she won't leave me alone in the project. She even suggested withdrawing her savings of #250, 000 so we can buy land. I have the money and apart from my daily hustle I have other side businesses that springs me money occasionally.

I want to settle down as soon as possible but she cited the problems that comes along with living in a rented apartment. I really wish to settle down but this lady won't agree.

I don't want to cause problem between us so how do I go about convincing her?

..
.
It's difficult to help you sir, I suspect your fiancée is one of these people that have a picture of what they want in their heads, The type of man, work, environment, children even in-laws..
..
If it's the above, then there's nothing much you can do about it, keep talking & toasting her, if she truly loves you, she'll bend a bit to accommodate your point of view

DatNaijaGuy:
I might be wrong, I think this is an unnecessarily power play between these so called super powers. India, a country ravaged with endemic poverty is spending so much for space exploration when millions of Indians can't eat twice a day and with millions of unemployed roaming the streets.
Third World countries need HDI and not this jamborees.

It is good thing you have rescued them. The Question we all want answers from is: what provisions are put in place to empower these young girls? It is not enough to rescue the but to get them engaged so they can have something doing to give them income because most of them ventured into prostitution for survival and if there is no alternative they may go back to the same thing you are saving them from.

It's fine, it's a great project, but it came at the wrong time.

Imagine powering the various terminal's with generator and the various consequences?

This rail line can't even serve up to 50k people per day, it can't generate up to 100k isd per day, yet it has gulped $2 bilion.

The $2 billion USD would have been used to build a world class has turbine that will provide 247 electricity for Lagosians. That will in turn create lots of revenue for the state and also trigger the industrialization process of Lagos State.

..
.
Yes you're right.... The project is most likely "over priced", but it's a step in the right direction, however slow....
..
.
You're right on the power ish too, but power generation commercialisation is still on the exclusive list... Fg is holding alot of Pple captive

Are you sure you are in Nigeria.
I repeat Bantupage visited every single LGA in Nigeria with the exception of Zamfara State and part of Abia State.

Watch the link below

Kindly find the attached pix & explain the underlined parts...

Thanks

Onyiridike:

You may be right but not the kind of polls conducted by Bantupage and ANAP.
Bantupage went to every single LGA in Nigeria with the exception of Zamfara state to sample opinion of Nigerians.
ANAP obtained numbers of voters who have collected their PVC and called every one of them using scientific methodologies.
Since 2011, all ANAP polls have been accurate.

Chevrolet076:
I applied to a graduate trainee role in a bank and I've followed the assessment till the 4th stage where we need to come for another assessment and bring out documents. Part of the document is NYSC discharge certificate and I won't be passing out till late February.

I was invited for the interview on Friday and I am confused on whether to go or not if I won't be disqualified because of it. I already sent a mail to their HR but I didn't get any response. What can I do please?

Get a TO WHO or INTRODUCTION letter from your NYSC LG inspector stating that you're who you say you are and when you'll be ending your service....

.
Its left to the HR to take you or not, its a 60/40 thing..... in all you do, be confident, smile & prove some social skills.... Be calm about it, explain your predicament "When/if asked"
...
..
In all, dont forge any document...all the best
