I think N500 is the true value

N900 is the true value Buhari left it at.

I don't think Tinubu has done anything extraordinary since he came in to really affect the real value.

The real value of naira is around 900 to 1000 naira based on our level of crude oil production which Constitute majority of our GDP and money in circulation.

Speculators drove it to 1850 because they kept betting against the naira.

CBN can defend the Naira at 900 naira to 1 dollar comfortably.

By next week, CBN will sell dollars for 1000 to the BDC and before end of April they will be holding it at 900 Naira.

mrvitalis:
Have you imported anything before?

Mr Ekwekwe economist, You don't need 500k cash in dollars to import anything

Banks deal with such large amount.

People often use letter of credit to buy goods in international trade.

Abure the psychopath..

Teejay2033:
In this kind of game, we needed a player like Mikel Obi and Onasi that would tackle opponents, break their rhythm and spread the ball across. If Iwobi and Oyenka are only good in one department, then going forward, we have to find a replacement for them. We need a complete player in the midfield. A decent midfielder should be able to win balls, dribble, break attacks, and give excellent passes.

I understand you bro
Hoever, international football is not like club football.

You get what you get.

Coaches in international football need to show tactical flexibility to win games using what they have.

We have what is required to play a four four two formation today

With Zaidu, Oyenka and the another midfielder and with iwobi playing slightly forward in the space between opposition defenders and midfielders where he is more dangerous.

Teejay2033:
Our midfield was none existence tonight. We weren't tackling the Ivorians neither were we winning balls. So, no adequate supply of balls to the attackers. Everything weren't just right from the start of the game.

iwobi is not a proper central midfielder and while Oyenka is an excellent player, he is not excellent In transition( passing the ball at pace to the front)..

Iwobi is only the one in the midfield with an excellent passing ability in the midfield but he doesn't have the physical strength or pace.

Kinzo0917:
Your analysis is 100% spot on

It is quite unfortunate dat our coach never saw it dat way

Our coach wanted d match to go to penalties

because I can't understand his defending for 90minutes

Imagine just 5 shots and only one on target

A local coach of ivory Coast outclassed him

So dissapointed

Our coach doesn't show tactical flexibility.

In a final,the game was even at one/one with the host nation in good position to win and you left the formation as it was.

The loophole in the two midfielders was very obvious.

To implement a proper "low block" you need three strong central midfielders that can also run.

The Nigeria female team implemented the low block better at the world cup because they have fantastic central midfielders.

For those attacking Iwobi

He is not a centeral midfielder,he doesn't have the tactical awareness and strength to cope with the job of a centeral midfielder.

He is a ten that plays just behind a striker.

It's like forcing Odergard to play in central midfield. He is going to be too soft and physically incapable of matching proper midfielders.

We played too deep and our wingers were totally useless.

Everytime we won the ball back our wingers were crowded out by two ivorian defenders right in our own half of the field.


We needed to put pressure on the Ivorian defense to push them back but instead we kept going deep.


Adringa pace was used to stretch our defense just as South Africa used Percy Tau to do the same in the last match.

Kinzo0917:
I dey watch how isreal dey bombard Games terrorists for Gaza

Imagine for a whole 90 minutes, we had just one shot on target

What an eyesore

When Ivory coast scored the first goal.
The coach should have changed the system to 442 rather than the Two midfielders we were playing.

Bring in Zaidu and push iwobi into proper ten role.

Iwobi is not a centeral midfielder.


The two wingers (chikuze and lookman) should have been sacrificed because they have spent nearly 60 minutes defending and have not managed a single cross all game.


Terem moffis pace(second striker) will have forced the ivorian defense backwards.

Africans love their football but we don't demand the same level of accountability from our political leaders as we demand from our footballers.

Gem stone wey never reach one year dem launch am.. is about sinking Ibadan...
That’s assuming without conceding..

We no argue with you Oga...

For the whole oyo state Na Ibadan Yoruba people see as best place to store explosives..

Again Oga have you seen it been to gem mine ?

Na shovel dem Dey use dig am ba or Na ground e Dey grow..

Since e no be coal mine ...

This people sef

Me don free you oh.. no time .. you win..

Gemstone can be discovered accidentally in a location through normal digging at anytime as it was discovered in Igangan in Oyo state which led to Fulani fracas.

It was the discovery of Emerald that created those problem back then.

It's not like coal. It's very limited and one stone can be sold for millions of dollars.

Kukutente23:
No. That's what I'm saying. It needs to be investigate to a logical conclusion instead of all these conjectures. I'm not aware of mining sites in Ibadan or Oke Ogun which I'm familiar with.
Only ibarapa I can't speak of.
I think we need to know exactly why explosives were kept in that area.

The only Gemstone market in Nigeria is located in Akinyele local government of ibadan close to Iseyin and other oke-ogun towns

Why do you think federal government will do that if not that gemstone is found in large quantities along that route.


Ordinary people digging well do find gemstones along that side.

Frigga13:
Quarry Na mining

Allow this people defend nothing..

Oke Ogun .. Na him dem Dey store explosives for Ibadan city

Na turkey brains be that

ibadan gemstone market

https://www.vanguardngr.com/2023/05/fg-launches-1st-intl-gemstone-market-in-ibadan/amp/

You think gemstone mine is like coalmine?

Kukutente23:
Are you certain?
I'm familiar with Oke Ogun and I've not seen miners save for the quarrying site for road construction

Have you seen gemstone mining site before?

You

Kukutente23:
Where are the mines

they are located in Ibarapa and oke ogun areas of oyo state.

Oyo state is a place where gemstone is largely mined.

There's a gemstone market near that location.

Although I am also surprised the governor jumped into fast conclusion.

Asisat Female caf award

That's the new name of this award.

senatordave1:
Allow oke Ogun to rule.stop voting one way

Oke Ogun people are not United like that.

Ibadan has 11 Local government areas that are largely populated.

Ibadan also often vote the same way.

You have to be popular in Ibadan to the governor of Oyo State.

I am from Ibadan

Lol.

Go to that page and see how Owo people are giving the igala boy dirty slap on Facebook.

SSFeedsNigeria:
You're just capping nonsense. Now, let's use Illorin as a case study. When Fulanis conquered Illorin, did they impose Fulfude on the people? No! They were only interested in owning the place while allowing the language of the conquered aborigines to remain.

Same thing happened in Lagos, atleast you can hear it from the direct descendant of Lagos rulers. Dosunmu acknowledged that Benin conquered Lagos while Aworis that arrived from Ibadan were forced to pay royalties to Benin. At some point, when they refused to pay, Benin monarchy had to intervene by establishing the Eko royal kingdom that exist till today. Thus, the rulers of Lagos are of Benin origin.

She even stated that Lagos indigenes are not lazy, but those that are lazy are the outsiders claiming to be Lagosians by default. I hope you know the people she is referring here🤣🤣

What you wrote is absolute trash

First of, Awori never came from Ibadan.

Secondly, unlike ilorin that acknowledged that Yorubas were their before, she actually saying they were there before the Aworis.

So read and comprehend before stating nonsense next week

jaxxy:
She is a royal bloodline of lagos not just any lady.

Exactly she is fighting logic because she is trying to prove a point.

Perhaps you should look for works of Academics on Lagos on Google scholar.

jaxxy:
Well it also said they came from Ife and the lady is disputing the time factor/lapse and logic of ur narrative.

Well based on logic of geography and the history of Land surrounding Lagos island.

The lady is just fighting simple logic with pride.

Kukutenla:
Bini don't have land in Lagos. Are you sure? You mean the Kosokos, Dosunmu and all the ruling house don't have land in Lagos? Are you sure of what you're saying? Are you now saying all the land in Lagos are owned by Awori
Besides, according to your story, Bini fought and conquered Awori owners. But there's no historical record to back it up.

They don't

They have family compound on Lagos island and that is it.

Most of their decendants bought the land they have.

Zooposki:
As I said, the real owners of Lagos has sent Oba with a warning. Arguing on Nairaland won't change the result.

As I said, talk is cheap.

He should try and claim those lands in Lagos and receive a bloody nose.

Zooposki:
Lol.

Abule Egba, Sango tedo, etc are Various settlement in Lagos

This Minus Apapa with Oyo people, Ikorodu and Epe which are exclusively Ijebu settlements

Zooposki:
Lol.

Abi I know my family's land in my village.

I don't understand why Oba of Lagos people don't have land in Lagos.

Philistine:
You migrated from Oyo, Osun etc you are now claiming another man's land, Are you guys not ashamed. The authentic owners of Lagos will soon take over their ancestral lands

Oyo, Egba, Tapa(Nupe) and Ijebu are part of indigenous people of Lagos.

Zooposki:
No problem. E go do una like magic. When you guys are cut off before you realize. Let your clerics keep running their mouths and you guys keep insulting other southerners and even indigenous lagosians.

Again

Oba of Benin should point to his Father's land in Lagos.

You can't be the founder of a place you don't have land.
