“I have been, over the years, talked about the pending crisis ahead of the current economic hardship. Any economist who has studied monetary policy in the last eight years knows that Nigerians will fall into this difficult situation.

“The difficult situation Nigerians are facing is just the beginning (if the right decision is not put in place) because Nigeria is not exceptional; such situations happened in Germany, Zimbabwe, Uganda, and Venezuela.

“The previous administration has turned adamant about our appeal for corrective measures (on the economic policy). I have said in the presence of the now sitting president in Kaduna state, any politician who tells you that things will be easy, don’t vote for him because he is lying. People merely dismissed my advisory as a political statement.

“If I am to be fair and just to President Bola Tinubu, he is not to blame for the current hardship; for eight years, we were living on a fake lifestyle with huge debt from foreign and domestic debts. The Central Bank of Nigeria owes over N30 trillion, which resulted in debt service surpassing 100 percent.

“I can’t join other Nigerians criticising Tinubu on the current economic hardship, and I am not saying he is a saint free from wrongdoing, but in this current economic situation, President Tinubu is not to be blamed. I will also speak if I see any wrong economic policy of the Tinubu administration in the feature.

“It’s injustice for anyone to blame the Tinubu administration for the current economic hardship because there is no other alternative than the removal of the fuel subsidy. After all, Nigeria cannot even afford to pay the subsidy.

“(In the last eight years), the Central Bank continues to print more money, and the Naira continue to depreciate. There is too much naira in circulation because the CBN is printing the currency without restraint.

“The economy was poorly managed, and they are not willing to take advice; in the last eight years, apart from sycophancy, nothing has been done; those sycophants are those buying the dollar at the rate of N400 and selling it at the rate of N600 to N700.

“A boy who has no record of service has a private jet and owns houses in Dubai and England just because he is buying Dollar at so so a rate and selling them.

“I can only plead with the people to endure the hardship, and those who have the means to help the downtrodden should do so.

“I am also pleading with commoners to live according to their earnings; we must not peg our lives above our earnings in this difficult situation where people are looking for what to eat."

At penalties or what? He's a mid striker. Remove penalties from his record and assess his impact. Less goals than Odegaard from open play

He even enters the pitch immediately the ref blows full time and gets to pick h invaders before the security/ stewards do. He’s a former US Navy seal .

It’s too early to conclude. Plus Roma might decide to keep him despite the bad results. As long as he doesn’t steer them towards relegation. It’s not as if they expect to win the league or something.
After the Europa League final, he basically said he's checking out. No one came for him. He would have lost the dressing room at that moment. I think their problems will continue

The discussion was not about international trade but Western influence in the making of African leaders. The point was that having the bulk of the world's raw materials, if our leaders were independent they could drag industrialization into Africa through proper negotiations. If you had quoted my complete post, you would see where I was driving at.

I said so because I am informed that the reasons our refineries cannot work is because of suppression by the West using the leaders they have installed or control over the years. Nigeria would stop importing fuel for instance. This would create jobs and also bring development.

So the point of discussion was about Western influence in choosing African leaders.
The reasons our refinery doesn't work is not because West appointed NNPC DG. Our refineries have worked from 1970s to early 2000s. I live directly opposite PH refinery

We don't have the bulk of the world's raw materials either and don't produce anywhere near others. Pull up top 5 producers of Oil, Gold, Iron, Coal, Copper, Silver, Uranium and you won't see us there. You might see one. So you are woefully underinformed on what you are talking about and your deductions derive from lack of information

It is despicable of you to isolate a few words in my post thereby misinforming readers only to tag me a child. I never expected such from a revered fellow like you.
I asked if you are a child because you clearly don't know how international trade works

Nobody with spare refining capacity will buy your refined products. Oil is sold in barrels as raw crude as standard except the buyer does not have their own refining capacity. Even behemoths like Saudi and Russia sell raw crude. Nobody dey beg you for market, market price determines all things.

If you want refinery, you can make it a condition of tender and see who bites.

Nigeria has 3 refineries with Dangote to come on board. Even Dangote did not site his refinery in Niger Delta where the crude is lifted but set his refinery up to receive shipments in Lagos. It wouldn't matter if Dangote bought crude from Niger Delta or abroad he will still pay the market price which is currently fluctuating between $70 and $90.

It is up to you to add value to things. You can use $10m of Uranium to run a $10bln nuclear power plant, you say someone should build $10bln plant for you to buy $10m of uranium from you, when they can buy uranium elsewhere. Is that a joke?

You (Niger) don't even have capacity to run a nuclear plant nor have that much need for power, nor anywhere near the funds for yearly operational costs of a nuclear plant. Common Kainji dam already takes care of most of your power needs.

So your statement was just laughable and not worth discussing seriously, sorry if you found offence in it. I couldn't kill myself to point out obvious things.

In fact I don’t even take much of ur takes on the ENDSARS issue serious sef because I feel some of them are comical; Like expecting unarmed civilians in direct of fire to hold their camera phones and capture their fellow protesters dropping dead . And also trying to find logic in an illogical situation.
Except we saw hundreds of videos of the shooting and even videos from people in their apartment videoing everything

This is the moment the shooting started with protestors standing right in front of the soldiers watching them shoot in the air and not feeling threatened. It's all on video

You can only stitch together what happened later that night with Police to add validity to your claim but as far as that initial incident, that was normal army procedure of shooting in the air to disperse crowd. I no outsource my brain.

That's some low blow by BlueRaydick cheesy

I'm never against ENDSARS. I was against the physically impossible lie that automatic guns were aimed at a packed crowd of hundreds of thousands people all holding camera phones for 20 minutes, with rapid fire artillery aimed at them and somehow thousands of bodies didn't drop. Infact all camera phones couldn't capture more than one injury from what I saw

He still believe that clown shyt till today. Hold your leaders accountable doesn't mean you should practice self delusion and put emotions over logic.

You would be surprised that Palmer's father has more white than black in him. They are so mixed in the Caribbean that their DNA sef don confuse. Sometimes the skin complexion will skip a generation and then come back depending on the new added mix.

But in everything wisdom (DNA) is needed. cheesy
True talk but looking at his skin complexion, that's a typical black-coolie mix

Even Palmer father will reject any adverse DNA finding now though, after football money done land grin

Same with David Luiz and Ross Barkley, na quarter cast. But you can usually see a tan in quarter cast, whereas Cole Palmer looks fully white.

Looking at Cole Palmer's pops though, he's not even half cast. In Carribbean you have people like that who are considered fully black but whose parents or grandparents mixed with Coolie Indians. He will be called a black man with Coolie ancestry in St Kitts
