Those giving these testimonies should endevour to always pay their bills in order to encourage such striving businesses.

I am 100% sure the OP is ibo. Emergency lovers of Nigeria. Not a coincidence that all those celebrating bad news about Nigeria are from iboland. Both on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Tiktok and so on they the same people.
Anyone can make this make sense?

Why are bigots very appalling in their critical thinking skills? This question I always asked myself but today I got the answers from you. You need an upgrade to your frontal lobe I must say.

Hmm...

Sometimes, this dollar comparison can make things complicated and give room for supporters of this administration to make excuses.

The clear and obvious fact is that apc is failing Nigeria and Nigerians. The purchasing power of the common man has been seriously eroded.

1. Rice, between 90-98, averaged 1000 for 50kg.
Minimum wage averaged N300.
So you needed 3+ months salary to buy 1 50kg rice.

2. Between 1999-2010, rice prices averaged 6k.
Minimum wage averaged 7k. So a month's salary would buy you a 50kg rice with a little change.

3. Between 2011 to 2014, 50kg rice averaged 8k.
Minimum wage was 18k.
So a month's salary could get you 2 50kg bags of rice and have change.

4. Between 2015-date, 50kg rice averages 70k.
Minimum wage is 30k.
So you need 2+ month's of salary to buy 1 50kg rice.

When checked with other indicies/commodities, the erosion of the purchasing power of Nigerians is obvious.

When people complain that the apc needs to improve, it is because pre-apc was clearly better than the present apc.


Let's even use gas.

Between 2007-2014, cooking gas prices averaged N400 per kg. Minimum wage was 18k.
Which means you could buy 45kg of gas with minimum wage.


Now 1kg is 1,300 and minimum wage is 30k.
Which means today, minimum wage can get you just 23kg of cooking gas.

These are the realities that sane people are complaining about.

This is why I give kudos the GEJ no matter what, the dude really has things going for the people because Nigerian Naira purchasing power was very good when compare to others in this fourth Republic.

Most great empires fall from internal implosion.
It's the Arrogance and overconfidence of the Israelis that will be their downfall
What rights to self defense makes you murder 35k+ people and you're feeling funky about it.

Thank God no Empire has lasted forever , the longest didn't last 500 years, USA is going down one day.

You see how wicked you are? You see only Hamas death but don't see the genocide that happened on the 7th of October? Wickedness in the highest order, if you like join them and go and hurt Israel all what I assure you is that your 72 Virgins awaits you.

misreal:
What capabilities in modern warfare does Iran has over Israel apart from land mass and population?

None, Iranian tech is way more older than the Israelis that use latest gadgets, imagine having the state of the arts F35s in your fleet and state of the arts air defenses, what else are you looking for?

tanigororo:
Everybody knows that Iran has an effective attack, but defence has been one of their greatest weakness.
One thing is certain, be expecting Iran to perfect the effectiveness of her defences in the coming years

That is where the Israelis are slightly ahead of them, what keeps Israel standing is the power of its defense and the ability to perform surgical strike at a moment notice anywhere in the region. Iranians are too engrossed in Arming Hamas , houthi, and hezbolah rather than bolstering their own defenses .

Richarlison640:
For me and for many Nigerians it's good news regardless of who ever commission it we must all learn to respect women and stop thinking that their only useful in the kitchen

Use your critical thinking skills, it's not about respecting women. If the woman is the president are you saying the husband should be commissioning projects related to the president? I no know how adults they reason sometimes.

Take away your emotive assertion, it is not legal for someone who is unknown to law repressing the president when his cabinet members are there to perform those duties in his absence. This is not about gender equality or affirmative action, it's doing what the due process of the law says , law is law it is what it is and not what it should be.

If you become a public servant you will really abuse the dictates of the constitution blatantly.

Very crazy country we find ourselves

AdeolaOmoOba:
It might be a front for their foreign intelligence agency.

As long as it has approvals to function as a supermarket no one should be disenfranchised from entering there otherwise government should shut it down. Covert operation is called covert for a reason whenever it's open it then violated the laws of the hoat country. It is illegal to host any intelligence setup of another nation in Nigeria that is why you can only find open intelligence operations in the embassies because technically that is there country because the laws that govern it is the laws of China.

We have too many dumb folks in Government, people who don't know their left from their right so it's difficult to make the best decisions since they don't even know how to take the lead.

There another which people don't talk about but a danger to the society Hepatitis B. If you take a survey you will understand that only a minute percentage have had immunization against Hepatitis B. I no get strength for loosed women and there insatiable quest fo trying all sorts of sexual fantasies.

As for me, it's all too dirty to take my mouth there, no matter how clean u think u are

Not even a billion can make me do this on a woman, this is one of the reasons I had a breakup with a lady. She said I must go down on her and also use unprotected sex with her , that she doesn't like condoms . Na me you want put for risk? Me wey careful die, if you want break up abeg do I no fit do that on you that had had different sexual partners before me even though you haven't I can't

jeromestarks:
You have bad mouth. Haba! You wan finish the girl niii?
Nna chill small small naaa.

These ladies will never learn until they experience baby mama experience first hand and seee what it is carrying responsibilities with little or no help from any person. They see a man who is ready to work with them to make life easier they don't want him because he wants them to think like adults and then they run to the ones who want them to think like children not knowing he is taking them to the express way .

Thank God my sisters don't have this mentality, they are both responsible members of the society who see themselves as adults and not children.

blackpanthar:
When women get MONEY, many feel they don't need men.
but
when men get money, they want women or they want to provide for their families.


WHATEVER YOU CHOOSE just know that many who have no money may have wonderful character and true love with awesome loyalty... but once money comes, it may all change.


So choose wisely

It's better to choose a woman who has money and needs a man than to choose a woman who doesn't have money but needs a man( you can't determine wether she needs the man because she is poor and when you raise her economic value she now decides she doesn't need a man because she now can fend for herself).

This is how lots of divorce come from, a lot who are very poor and humble now become tyrants at home because they no longer see the value of a man since he has changed their economic bracket upwards. That's why I support those who go for people of higher economic value because they are more certain it's not because the women need palliatives as the first reason for entering a relationship.

I'm not against those going for women of low economic value with great personalities but I'm saying it's a better safety net for the man going into relationships with women who come from higher economic bracket with great personalities than their counterparts in the lower echelon.

EreluRoz:
You are just insecure that's all.

I get pissed whenever I see a man typing hardworking to describe a lady. Men of these days are just after women to drain, if not for the harsh society a woman is naturally not created to work.

Modern men are just after women that will take up their role, it's the mentality for me, so disgusting.

If a woman chooses to work, it's to take care of herself and not for any man to come leech on. Mtcheww

You don't need to be educated at all, you should sit at home and wait for someone to marry you and feed you. That I spend money on you as my child and you decide to be useless to the society then you deserve not to be educated at all.

You want to be an adult without responsibilities , go back to your mamas womb and stay there so that you don't pay bills. As long as you stay in a world like ours you must stand and be responsible and accountable for your selves.

You all advocate for affirmative action, education and equal opportunities to strive for success in the society and then turn around to still want same men you compete with and even disenfranchised them of the opportunity to earn because of affirmative action to them begin to feed your lazy ass as what? Mother Mary ?

You better learn responsibility and accountability else after pregnancy you be thrown out like a pack of card to become that baby mama you so desired. After that let's see how you will begin to shout feed me, I'm a less privileged, I'm a baby girl, I'm disadvantaged, I deserve to be treated like a queen .

I still don't know why lazy women want the goodies of the society but not responsibility. Continue I know where you are heading to.

For me it's not even his height, it's his looks. Looks like one garage boy.

Garage boy that you have been begging for 4years, is that one a garage boy? You call your benefactor garage boy, insolent little kid.

Agozskey:
The only closeness is money... And as a young man I won't do that... I won't give her money

Don't try that, very grave move. Using money to buy love is foolishness, don't start what you can't finish.

Holluwhakemmy:
Try and close to her mother you may win her heart later, you can't stop your girlfriend not to post her mum picture she's her mother and want the best for her. May God prosper the work of your hand

The only way to win her is by giving her money and that's a bad precedent, no man should ever use money to buy love. I'm surprised the lady is not behaving like her gold digger mother, you can't satisfy this kind of women ever no need to try win her.

I like how the OP was bold to fend off her bullshit as to coercing him to sponsor her child when the mother and father are alive and ables bodied, when he finished sponsoring her they(parents) will still without shame to demand for bride price for a daughter already adopted by another man, crazy people everywhere.

drlateef:
I wonder where NBS is getting their samples from to calculate inflation rate. I hope Obingoes are not the ones they are consulting.😂😂😂

Check your critical thinking skills it needs upgrade.

NBS is now been doubted by you because you are a bigot

chidekings:
oga the police might have been wrong in shooting....but if those guys tries that in the states,a worst outcome it will be.

Any police who tries that act in the state will be hailed for life, you can't shoot someone who isn't a threat to your life, someone who is running away from you. Even if the police shots in the states that is a guarantee for a life in jail. No escueses for such rascality.

Offpointng:
It'd be glad to see him hurry and rush out of the Hospital as well. Foolish kid.

The Patience wey him no gree get sheyb him don dey get the Patience in bulk now for Hospital

You will think extrajudicial acts is a joke until it happens to your son, you, your father, mother and, relatives.

What they did wasn't a threat to the life of the officers in duty but because of corruption and money they already budgeted to rip off from the occupants they are prepared to go rogue. Lawlessness in Nigeria is indeed supported by the people.

na because I cry that final ni the match be like yesterday match ni... I really wanted Portugal to win.... I supported them

We all wanted them to win, Greece was a outcast in that match

IkeIgboNiile:

Where you there? Reverse the scenario if it was a man in that scenario with a woman and having same ingredients will you type this rubbish? Most of you will allow crimes to continue because it's a woman that is in the cycle of the storm that doesn't portray a good precedent in the society.

This kind of character is why women don't like taking accountability and responsibilities for their actions because people like yare there to give them leeway .

I can't change your hate for women but you can't change my opinion on the case. The media fed you a story and you swallowed it without thinking twice.
Go back and read the police report or situation report and you'll find out that there's a high play there. The girl was just a victim.

I don't have anything to say, I don't hate women but won't say sweet things because it concerns women, only expressing my opinion. I have a lot of comments and history here, have you gone through them to come to the conclusion that I hate women?

Why is it that when someone's opinion negates what you exude you use derogatory words like hate women? I don't blame you we are on same platform that's why.

Lovelydaisies:
Did you see the part where he said meat should only be eaten during festive periods? And he still went ahead to be buying for himself.

Be careful what you support, oga. If that lady is your sister and her daughter is your niece, your judgement will be different.

Forget whether she is providing or not. Why say one thing then go ahead to do another? Will you do what this man has done in your family, maybe because your wife can't/doesn't work? If you can't afford meat, say so. Unless there's something they're not telling us, it makes no sense.

What if it was the woman hiding to eat chicken and hiding receipts, what would your judgement have been?

Everything no be gender war, na common sense!

Nairaland males, we can do better than support unfair treatment.

Abeg the expectations you all put on men is sometimes overwhelming to a point where men live a short live because they want to keep up to the expectations of the society. Irrespective, sometimes the man should be given kudos for the burden he carries every day in order to keep the home running.

If such scenario happens from the one who has been carrying the family on his shoulders and not that he refuses to carry them any longer give him the benefit of the doubt and str

That a man is just one out of a million mene who has just decided to eat a little of his crumbs , men sacrifice everyday many even go hungry just for the family to live, many die trying to provide for the family and just a man is eating chicken for him to have energy to work more you guys want to kill him calm down life no suppose difficult like that.

Where i would have had great issues is if he doesn't care for his family at all, but that he sneaked out to get a chicken for himself is not issue for me. This isn't the norm most men will die providing for their family if one man decides to smile a little that's should never be a biggie. There is no one who will ever accept a man if he cries out to be taken care of but women and children will have them at support, who then gives the man a treat? Who then pampers the man? If this is the only way of pampering himself Omo make him do am life short.

It's never about supporting the male when issues come up, I am objective to the best of my knowledge but you see giving a man a treat it will never happen unless he does that to himself. Most women can never make sacrifices that the man does for the family, most Women can never do for the husband what the husband does for them this is a fact, if I ask you since you became adult how many times you have sponsored a date compare. To how many times men have sponsored your date I would be surprised to hear 10:90. Most ladies can't give their men a treat but only give pressure and make life more stressful to the already stressful life of a man.


You all should allow men breath, most men die carrying responsibilities of the family give them some slack.

NewDea4:
Perhaps if you'd gotten the amount of protein your body required while growing up as a kid, you wouldn't have been this badly retãrded

If you married a blind woman, won't you work out a way to prevent her from leading your kids into the path of a high-speed train? That's what responsibility means, dumbass

Only someone who critically exuded thought process is infinitesimal goes low to engage another, I don't need to call you dumb you already told me you are more than dumb by asserting yourself in such a way. Last time to reply you MR. Dumb

If you like die , don't take care of yourself the world would never end just a one minute silence will be held in your honour and everyone will ever remembered you existed Mr. Dumb.

Oga did you watch euro 2004 because I saw all Portugal games I didn't miss one.. pauleta was overrated abeg... the commentators were all over him and Figo though rui Costa too was rated... abeg no dey mention ppauleta for where I dey abeg I no dey talk friendly and qualifier goals against luithunia and latvia

Calm down the way you dey ginger e no reach for you to compare the dude with nani na.

Why are these women demanding and what will they offer in return?

NewDea4:
He ought to be responsible enough to make sure his kids get required nutrition. Children don't ask to be born.

When you guys use responsible I don't know what you all mean by that, until he dies before you know he the one responsible for the upkeep of his family? Truly a man is really a disposable item , you hustle and die no one cares for you.

A man that is taking care of his family is who you refer as not responsible enough I laugh when you use words you can't really explain the meaning. Until he goes hungry and dies for his family that is when people like you will type he was a responsible man who does for his family

Abeg rest Mr responsible enough, when e reach your family do as you like , if you like die in your responsibility na you sabi.

hstar:
Pauleta na pure striker
While Nani was a winger

Hence no comparison

Yes you are right but downgrading pauleta below Nani was really off for me, someone who won best player in French league one on several occasions is who he said is rated below Nani is something I don't agree.

sprints1:
which Pauleta abeg abegi euro 2004 that PSG man was the Darwin Nunez of that cup.

Hahaha, are you talking of pauleta that CR7 surpassed his national team goals of 50 or another one? The pauleta that won best player in the French league 1 in different occasions or another one? The pauleta who had over 300 career goals or there is another? Pauleta has no comparison with Nani the records are there to show.
