Business / Re: What Do You Think Should Be Done To Appreciate Naira ? by hothead(m): 10:26am On May 09
Two metrics are very important. If they can be balanced;

Demand-Pull: GDP growth, consumer spending, export volume.

Supply-Cost: Inflation rate, interest rates, business operating costs.

Gdp growth will mean consumer spending has increased and export volumes up.

How will consumer spending increase? Currently majority of the population earn less than $2.50/day. How can we increase the people's earnings to $10/day?
What resources/tech can be leveraged on?

I have ideas of several solutions leveraging on tech that can help increase earning of the people. That's another topic.

How will exports increase? What are the most exportable resources? Which ones have the highest return rates and the lowest creation cost? There are there in plain sight: we invest in them and make them 1st solve local gaps and then export across Africa and the world.

All of this is solving for demand pull.

Them supply cost - Inflation rate must be controlled using data, interest rates must be balanced with the Ecosystem to business operating costs low enough to keep sustainable operations.

Some actions can have elements of both demand and supply-side effects like address speculations which is necessary. After blocking all leakages from new technologies in the digital economy, create regulations like SEC is doing with the VASP license and then reopen the digital space up.

Show transparency and communicate about economic policies with citizens for input to build trust and confidence, potentially leading to increased consumer and investor spending.

Then obviously, Manage foreign exchange reserves effectively.

Business / Re: How Binance P2P Contributes To The Plummeting Naira Value by hothead(m): 8:58am On Feb 22
It's crucial to balance regulation and innovation, ensuring that measures to combat manipulation do not stifle the growth of the digital economy or hinder the legitimate use of digital currencies. What our country Nigeria could employ to tackle these challenges:

-. Strengthen Regulatory Frameworks
Enhance Oversight of P2P Platforms: Implement stricter regulations and oversight for peer-to-peer (P2P) exchange platforms operating within Nigeria. This could involve requiring platforms like Binance to register with Nigerian financial authorities and comply with local financial regulations and anti-money laundering (AML) standards.

Set Clear Guidelines for Merchants: Establish clear guidelines and requirements for merchants operating on these platforms, including verification processes, transaction limits, and anti-market manipulation policies.

-. Monitor and Enforce Compliance
Collaborate with Platforms: Work closely with P2P platforms to monitor transactions and identify suspicious activities. Platforms should be required to report large transactions and suspicious patterns that may indicate market manipulation.
Politics / Re: What Does Crypto Contribute To The Economy by hothead(m): 8:24am On Feb 22
market stabilization actions are needed yes, but Banning crypto could push the ecosystem underground, making it harder to regulate and potentially exacerbating financial instability. A balanced approach, where crypto is regulated and integrated into the financial system with proper oversight, is a better choice.

This would allow FG harness its benefits while mitigating its risks. Benefits like having
1) alternative financial system,
2) potentially increases financial inclusion,
3)transparency of transactions,
4) better supply and demand management

Direct inflation control measures that will Strengthen the economic fundamentals

here are monetary policy proposals for Nigeria involving crypto and blockchain, targeting inflation control without stifling growth:

- Manufacturing Zones: Establish special economic zones with incentives for manufacturers, including tax breaks and infrastructure support to spur industrial growth.

- Crypto-Backed Agricultural Lending: Launch a blockchain-enabled platform for issuing crypto-backed loans to farmers at below-market interest rates. This encourages agricultural productivity, a sector crucial for growth and inflation control, by providing much-needed capital. The use of crypto ensures ease of distribution and repayment, while blockchain technology ensures transparency and tracking of fund usage.

- Blockchain-Managed Supply Chain Financing: Implement a supply chain financing system using blockchain to provide liquidity to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). By using a stablecoin pegged to the Naira, businesses can transact and receive financing with more stability, reducing the pressure on forex demand, a key contributor to inflation.


- Tourism Development Strategy: Develop historical and cultural sites, invest in tourist infrastructure, and market aggressively to international tourists to boost foreign exchange earnings.

Transaction Ledgers. A public ledger recording all transactions to ensure transparency.
It can have Privacy settings to balance transparency with confidentiality through diversification and increased productivity.

Digital Infrastructure Bonds: Issue blockchain-based bonds to fund digital infrastructure projects, attracting global crypto investors and ensuring transparent use of funds.

Title: The Election Madness

FADE IN:

INT. LIVING ROOM - DAY

Ade, Bay, and Dap are sitting on a couch, watching the news about the upcoming elections.

ADE: (excitedly) Guys, the elections are coming up soon! Have you decided who to vote for?

BAY: (sarcastically) Yeah, I'm voting for the candidate who promised to give us free food forever.

DAP: (rolling his eyes) Bay, stop being silly. We need to vote for someone who has a good track record and can lead our country to greatness.

ED enters the room, carrying a large stack of flyers.

ED: Hey guys, have you seen these flyers? I'm running for office!

ADE: (surprised) Ed, you're running for office? What's your manifesto?

ED: (proudly) I'm running on a platform of free ice cream for everyone!

BAY: (shaking his head) Ed, you're not taking this seriously, are you?

ED: (defensively) Of course I am! I've even made campaign t-shirts that say "I scream, you scream, we all scream for Ed's ice cream!"

DAP: (sighing) This is getting out of hand. We need to focus on the real issues that are affecting our country.

ADE: (nodding) Yeah, like education, healthcare, and the economy.

BAY: (smiling mischievously) Or we could just vote for the candidate who promises to make Mondays a national holiday.

DAP: (exasperated) Bay, that's not even a real issue!

ED: (grinning) But it's a great idea! Who wouldn't want an extra day off every week?

ADE: (laughing) Ed, you're a clown. But I have to admit, your ice cream campaign slogan is pretty catchy.

BAY: (smiling) Yeah, I might even vote for you just for the free ice cream!

DAP: (shaking his head) I give up. You guys are impossible.

The group continues to debate and joke about the upcoming elections, each with their own unique perspective on the issues.

FADE OUT.

Title: The Election Shenanigans

FADE IN:

INT. A SMALL TOWN VOTING CENTER - ELECTION DAY

ADE, Bayo, and Dapo, three enthusiastic volunteers, are setting up the voting booths, while Eddy a lazy government official, sits in a corner playing games on his phone.

ADE: (Excitedly) Today is the big day, guys! I can't wait to see the turnout.

Bayo: (Nervously) I just hope everything goes smoothly. I heard there are already some reports of voter fraud.

Dapo: (Confidently) Don't worry, Bay. We'll keep a close eye on things. Ain't that right, Ade?

ADE: (Proudly) You bet! Nothing will get past us.

Suddenly, a loud noise interrupts their conversation. They turn to see Eddy, who has accidentally knocked over a pile of voting forms.

Eddy: (Nonchalantly) Oops, my bad. You guys can handle that, right?

ADE: (Angrily) Ed, what have you been doing all day? Get up and help us!

Eddy: (Sarcastically) Oh, I'm sorry, Your Highness. I didn't realize I was supposed to work on election day.

Bayo: (Sternly) Eddy, we all have a job to do here. This is important, and we need to make sure everything is done right.

Eddy: (Sighing) Fine, fine. I'll help. But don't expect me to break a sweat.

As they clean up the mess, a group of voters starts to arrive. The volunteers greet them and direct them to the voting booths.

ADE: (Eagerly) Good morning, sir! Here's your form, and here's where you can vote.

Bayo: (Politely) Good morning, ma'am! Right this way, please

Correct. The Tung family own oriental hotel.


RichestMinds:
I saw a post on a trend saying tinubu is the owner of Lagos Oriental Hotel.

I was a worker at WEMPCO Group which happens to be the owner of Lagos Oriental Hotel. I worked in the purchasing department and I was among the team that supply everything the Hotel needed ranging from food, electrical, even toothpick.

It came as a shock to me when they say tinubu owns it. Tinubu can't be the owner of everything in Lagos.

Lagos Oriental Hotel is own by the Tung Family

Don't tell. I repeat, do not tell....jus keep your secret to yourself... telling will ruin your whole relationship. Do not tell

daylay7:
I was in love with this guy so much that we do everything together. Aside from the fact that we share the same goals, religion put us far from each other. He was a muslim and I, a christian. I loss my virginity to him (we were both naive in that practice anyway). My parents forbid me and we drifted apart but I loved him still.

I met another guy afterward who shares the same belief with me and we got married three years later. Infact, my ex came for the wedding and celebrated me even during the reception( my husband already know his story and was not surprised when he saw him at the wedding).

A year after the birth of my son, I had an official assignment in another location where my ex's sister resided and because I could not complete the assignment that day, I decided to sleep over at her place. But on getting there, I saw my ex sitting in the living room. It was already late as at that time and I couldn't go back or book for a hotel and I decided to chilled out, telling myself that nothing must happen between us that day. undecided My greatest mistake!

The apartment was just 3 bedroom. A master bedroom for the sister, a room for the children and the other for a visitor. Now we are having two visitors who once shared a thing for each other. cry My ex invited me into the room but I declined telling him I would rather sleep on the floor in the living room or he should bring a matrass for me. He brought the mattress in the visitors room into the living room and we both slept on it. One thing led to another in the middle of the night.... cry cry cry cry cry . And it happened! Coincidentally, my husband called at that time. I had to switched off my phone.

When I got back home the next day, I apologized to my husband that I had a flat battery and he didn't say anything but my husband never looked at me the same again. He never quarreled or said anything even after couple of years later. But the way he talks sometimes as if he kws I am hiding a secret from him and he wants me to open up to him. My fear is that if I should open up, I might lose my marriage and my family. What happened between my ex and I was a one time thing. I never went back or saw him again. It has been 10 years now and I am still feeling bad about it especially when he talked about cheating couple.

This feeling is eating me up. I don't know if I should still open up to him or I should forever remain silent about it....

Nigeria should import large numbers of cheap hobby-grade drones to follow suspects, rather than investing in highly expensive police helicopters. Long-range fixed-wing drones at higher altitudes can operate alongside low-flying camera quadcopters working in relays along any direction that the suspects choose to flee. Drone operators can relay details of where suspects are heading in real time to police cars on the ground.
