Life can be funny!

This same lady every one saw to be wayward and never seen to look like she is going to have a happy home. See how she has been made happy daily in her home by her "King Kong"!

girls that kept their virginity for their husbands can't even get new techno. ..that's life for you , it's not by power

Another poverty thread..I jump and pass

That's a 2 million naira keyboard , I doubt if many studios in Nigeria would want it even if they could afford it

Strange bed fellows competing for resources

Goke7:
we are just a bunch of emotional rants in Nigeria, when the likes of utomi and other night school economists were pushing for the floating and devaluation of the naira, PMB stucked to his guns knowing the effects it will have on the economy, they blackmailed him including the foreign media saying he was too rigid and that foreign investors were running away. Alas PMB succumbed and things went awry and all the so called foreign investors these olodo economists said will come to nigeria if we float the naira till today we never see them. They are now blaming PMB again.

This is how the fuel marketers too are already trying to blackmail PMB to allow them increase fuel price with the stupid excuse of forex even when the demand for fuel has gone down. Honestly the witches in this country are just too much, they all need to be witch-hunted.

And who told you Buhari succumbed to anybody ..he held on till he realised he didn't have enough foreign reserve to keep giving the naira a false value ..As usual Mr presidents stubbornness and lack of vision made home tale his finger of the trigger when the damage was already done and the the naira she real value was playing out in the streets and not the banking halls.. Further more he keeps ordering the CBN to release cheap dollars to different religious groups at a time we don't need it

AZeD1:
This is your only point that is agreeable, others are debatable.
I'll speak on the TSA.
The banks were getting free money from the government and loaning back to the same government at 15% interest rates, they were also lent to the real sector at 20% and above interest rate which is terrible. The government was loosing money by this arrangement and also the free money was not used by the banks to help fund SME's. I wholly support this move by the government.
Once forex racketeering is dealt with, the banks will have no other option than to go back to core banking.

Yes exactly and that's why the think tank that came up with the TSA recommended it be done phases to ease the financial that might arise from an instant removal ..this is where Buhari erred he failed to take that critical advise and pulled the rug 100 percent at the wrong time .

And what is even his business with that ? What kind of man is Buhari sef

I hope you are getting paid

Till Buhari and his toxic personality leave nothing will improve

KINGwax007:
u and patt must be from the same town..

Big head, big education, no brain...

How does it happen, that a country which depends on oil as the major revenue, rely mostly on imports, and had no savings for dry season, not be in recession, when the source of revenue shrinks?

Oya, economic savvy, tell me..

First thing we should know the decline in oil prices is not commensurate to the level of drop our economy has witnessed. . Have you asked yourself that that despite low oil prices and virtually no democratic structure on ground plus no foreign reserve and a heavy debt profile how Obasanjo managed to steer the country to some growth ..Mr I will highlight some poor decisions made by a visionless Buhari (I also voted for him oo) that virtually nuked the Nigerian economy.

Before President Buhari was sworn in Oil prices had spiralled down plus he was taking over from an exceptionally corrupt govt led by the meek GEJ. A wise leader taking over such affairs will not do some things ..below are things Buhari shouldn't have done ..

1: He shouldn't have spent more than six months choosing his ministers and team ..Knowing that we were in an era of low oil revenues Buhari should have hit the ground running in a manner that will inspire confidence in the NIGERIAN economy but he didn't rather he left the country without a policy framework or directionfor 6 months .

2: The ridiculous MTN fine : 6 months after his inauguration Buhari suddenly realises he has low revenue from oil and take advantage of the simplest registration penalty to slap MTN the largest fine ever heard in human history , a ridiculous fine of 5 billion dollars ..that immediately set most multinationals who had been operating under lax Nigerian laws to find parallel means of expatriating over 80 billion dollars out of the country in under 3 weeks just in case the govt of the new sheriff decided to clamp down on their profits still housed in Nigeria..Ironically the president couldn't even get MTN to pay the 5 billion dollar as it was reviewed to some really paltry some to be paid small small over time but the damage was already done .

3: For years most people knew our Banks relied on govt patronage for a large percentage of its deposits..Mr Buhari in his visonles manner goes on to pull the rug over night by implementing TSA a 100 percent instead of the piece meal fashion recommended by those who even created the TSA in the first place, the banking industry was suddenly hit with a massive withdrawal symptom that also cascaded into the real private sector including small businesses .

4: When oil prices are low oil producing country usually ramp up production to try to use volume to counter losses realised form low oil margins and that why Saudi Arabia this year increased production levels to a record high ..In Nigeria what did Buhari do? Buhari chose such are time to declare Tompolo wanted for a supposed fraud of 13 billion naira thereby throwing the region into chaos as militants took to the offensive to avoid arrest. .this action further cut down our production by another half meaning despite low oil price Mr Buhari now had to deal with low output and production.

5: Recently as production started to pick up the Army announced it was deploying 10 thousand soldiers to the region ..I don't have a problem with that but why announce it ..By announcing it tension is again heightened in the region. .Abacha deployed more troops to the Niger delta but never announced it sef .

Bro I can go on and on ..the truth is that Buhari can never make a great leader and will never .he doesn't have that vision and prefers knee jerk action to well thought out solutions

Izonpikin:

The Best Flyover Bridge in Nigeria is the Kwankwasiyya Flyover Bridge built by the former Governor of Kano Rabiu Kwankwaso





We hope to see many more visionary leaders with visionary projects in Nigeria..

Best as used in this context is relative ..for some the best bridge might be the one that can carry the most tonnage ,for others it might be one that has lasted the most ,still for some it might be in terms of engineering and science behind the structure ...the Lekki Ikoyi link bridge for is the best bridge because I love it's aesthetics, the surfacing is excellent ,great lighting ,saves me time when I have to go the mainland , good security and my best jogging trail in Lagos .

Not been to Kano in a while but from the pics shown here the Kano city overpass looks okay

Great write up

He saying what I have always said ..our level of recession has nothing to do with oil prices but all to do with the character and poor judgment of President Buhari

Izonpikin:



Everybody enjoy the government...enjoy the hypocritical ride of a government...

And I can bet my salary that this amount is even a lie....

The Presidency already let us know they spent far more just in case the British hospital slips. See quote below



“For the records, the administration advanced a higher sum, but the President’s doctor returned the balance to the treasury."

Ilovemystate:
Mkpi! read kindly read, that's why your state is dragging position with Kastina

Governor Obiano warned that after 18 months of the launch of Operation Kpochapu, a special task force against crime, “we have decided to raise a new battle cry against criminals, moving swiftly from crime-fighting to crime detection and prevention. And we are flagging-off this new phase with 25 American-style, highly equipped patrol cars, Speed Guns to track over-speeding vehicles, Alcohol Detecting kits and other special kits that will aid crime detection and prevention.”

If you know your syntax you will know that " American smart car" is not the same thing as "American Styled car" . And if you know anything you will know that because a car is mounted with revolving lights, two way radio and the officers have a doppler gun ,that doesn't make the car a smart car .

Nice pix, cute son. pls complete your family by marrying his mum. That boy deserves a true family.

Nigerians and advise ? Who told you they are not married?

seunmsg:
This man is the most stupid professor I have ever seen in my entire life. He is not different from the wailing crew on NL who goes about writing unreasonable stuffs without good reference/source once it is against the president.

He admitted that vanguard is not a credible source but still went ahead to write about a phantom $6million treatment bill with the same discredited vanguard as the source. And now, instead of giving a straight apology, he's still grandstanding and blaming the president for not denying the news in time. His motive becomes more curious when you realise that this is coming just a few days after the national outrage about patience Jonathan's $15million medical bill account. We really need to upgrade our libel laws. People should be made to face more stiffer sanctions when they write absolute falsehood to deliberately hurt other people.

So he is now a foolish prof ? How much are you guys paid to act this way sef?

shikshark:
smart cars for dumb policemen..mtchew

but before you crucify obiano finish, those cars are actually donated by U.S and not purchased by the governor

Please why are they called American smart cars? Are those not Toyota Corrollas

Jirate:
And the Olodo is Failing and Smiling……, Abacha was even better.

Despite sanctions and low oil prices Abacha grew the economy 4% steady every year and the naira never slid against the dollar at all. Compared to Buhari Abacha was a genius.

the shehu fool has admitted more than 6 million pounds cash was taken to london for ear treatment.

Where did he admit

DO YOU KNOW YOU HAVE POOR COMMUNICATION SKILLS??

No mind me ..I am doing many things at the same time right now and I hate typing with my phone

Does this guy realise that an ATM cost more than 20,000 dollars outside cost of deployment and deployment is usually a business decision not a welfarist one .

maclatunji:
This post exposes you to be inept.

Many won't get this so I am not suprised .

If Ambode was the President I can swear that Nigeria wouldn't be in a recession now

This man can't even make a sensible comparison yet he is governor .

Hmmmmmm

Bad guy

Pesuzok:
So how did he increase the foreign reserve. What was Nigeria exporting then to earn forex?

The point is that in wake of all that OBJ was able to inspire foreign direct investments and confidence so much Nigeria actually grew then instead of crashing ..There was no single democratic structure on ground but OBJ plagued with low oil prices and total uncertainty found a way to grow Nigeria ..All I am saying is that Buhari inspires hopelessness by his actions and body language ..three things that nuked the economy were

1: the ridiculous MTN fine

2: Sudden implementation of TSA

3: Declaring Tompolo wanted

If these three things were well thought out Nigeria would be doing well now

I have always had a soft spot for her and will always have one
