DeepSight: People like you and Seunmsg and Image123 are wasting your energy telling lies to Nigerians because everyone including yourselves feels the negative difference brought about by this govt. And the vast majority are clear in their minds that this govt is no good for them. No amount of talk changes the pain of the cost of living, the power situation or the unspeakable security situation. Most of you only parrot what you do as a result of ethnic chauvinism. Nothing more.
Bola is likely to win next year, but that's no result of popularity for sure. A mix of the stupid division of opposition and rigging will ensure that.
Like Trump supporters, I urge you all to just enjoy. The weeping of Nigerians under this insensitive govt will not last forever nor can Bola rule forever. A day will come when he will go and then you can revert to criticizing whoever is there even if he is doing better. What lie have i told ohhhhhhhhh? |

Business › Re: S&P: Dangote Refinery, Export Growth Driving Nigeria’s Economic Resurgence by Image123(m): 5:50am On May 26 |
flokii: Rubbish post.. Dangote refinery is located in a "Free Trade Zone" which means it's technically not within Nigeria but a Free Zone. They have collected brown envelope to be posting nonsense. You need strong connection to see Obi supporter wey dey reason truth. Free Trade Zones are special economic areas created by governments (Tinubu to be exact) to attract investment. Companies there may get incentives like: tax holidays, easier import/export procedures, and reduced customs duties. Dangote is being taxed less for being in FTZ. For Nigeria benefits, it reduces fuel import dependence. It saves foreign exchange previously spent importing petrol/diesel. It creates jobs directly and indirectly. It supports shipping, logistics, petrochemicals, and manufacturing. It improves fuel availability locally, less queues or fuel scarcity. It also increases export earnings if refined products are sold abroad. Receive sense IJN. |

DeepSight: Ehen. This is the calmer you. Now we can reason together.
First of all let me set a few things straight in his favour so you will know I am not full of irrational hatred. One, he has paid his dues. Big time. Right from NADECO days to being patient with gradually finding the right time for him. He has built MANY men. The South West political world is full of them. And he was very strategic in his politics. He is bold and he can fight for what he believes in..He fought Obasanjo to a standstill.
Look, far from having any issues with Tinubu tribe-wise, I am a Lagos boy to the core and the only person I have voted for president for in my life was Gani Fawehinmi.
But it amazes me how you can say that Sowore gives you CIA vibes. Almost everyone knows that BAT is a CIA asset. When the question was put to them they replied saying they don't expose their assets..
You make sweeping claims about the other contenders. How do you know Atiku can't manage an economy? The rail in PH is not something you can use against Amaechi. Because here in Lagos it took successive govts to get rail right and some went off plan like Ambode who paid it no attention.
Sowore however, to be frank, needs to start from a lower rung.
Now let me share with you what I wrote this morning to another poster on the subsidy and naira float issues -
------ .....Now let me give you some cold hard facts. Don't take my word for it, research them.
1. The total removal of fuel subsidy in one day was a first of its kind in the world. Everywhere else where this has been done, its been done gradually. Here, for the first time anywhere, the price of fuel jumped 200% in a single day from under 200 Naira to over 600 Naira. That was too much a shock for the economy and especially for the vulnerable. It had a ripple effect on prices of every commodity and thus the result was a jump in prices at a hectic pace never seen before.
2. Just three to four weeks after this, the naira was floated. The result was another jump from about N700 to the dollar to almost N2000 AT A POINT, even though it fell to generally around 1500-1600. In case you dont understand, in an import dependent economy, this simply meant further rises in the prices of almost everything by over hundred percent.
By the time you add the effects of the two above, the multiplier effect was dizzying. Even if you believe that these steps were necessary (which I dont) at least you will agree that the timing and implementation were terrible. At the barest minimum after the subsidy removal, the floatation of the naira should have been delayed.
Note that electricity subsidies were also partially removed.
And further down the line, the price of petrol was increased again from just over 600 to circa 1000. Cruelly, this was in the immediate aftermath of the EndBadGovernance protests. I dont think it has ever happened elsewhere that prices were jacked up after a nationwide protest protesting high prices.
All of these were shocks, and they have resulted in suffering of an unimaginable kind for the poor and vulnerable masses. So please do not simply say in an insensitive way "inflation didnt start with Tinubu.". ------ Let's start with these. We will come to Chagoury.
Also what do you have to say of his appointment of Atiku Bagudu as Minister of Budget and Planning.
I hope you know his story. He was Abacha's bag man who kept Abacha's loot and he had to refund a lot of it. This is what I mean by open corruption (along with Chagoury another BUSINESS ASSOCIATE of Abacha).
Cc: Image123 Okay, so he's a CIA asset and at the same time a drug Baron who can't enter the US. He's working with Abacha's bag man and business associate. These are very knotty reconciliations to make but not even an issue for me. i have not said Tinubu is a saint, i don't believe any politician is. What i have consistently and continuously say is that Tinubu will win elections, whether 2023 or 2027, and that he's a better choice for me than his fellow contestants. It's on these base that i'll defend him and have defended him, because i can't lose him to win clueless or more clueless others. i look at the subsidies removed and know they needed to go, he took them off. You may argue the how and when. i look at the electoral reforms, tax reforms, electricity reforms, education reforms, ongoing security reforms, restructuring in general. To me, we're not there but we've made very big and bold steps. None of the other contestants could have made this much progress. Is it Obi that will say 1 + 1 is 2 and National Assembly will tell him to keep quiet. We both know that if Tinubu says 1 + 1 is 4, the rest of government will somehow say na so sir. i gave this hypothetical scenario because i know how difficult and complex Nigerian terrain is. The cabal is in every phase, sector and section but Nigeria must have sense by fire or force. From Aso Rock cabal, to forex cabal, to subsidy cabal, to security cabal, to religion cabal, to civil service cabal. The people don't really want things to work but they must. i don't expect a saint, angel or outsider to come and do it. |

Lolz, you probably are writing for money. There's terrorism in the North, South East and South West. Joining it to a yoruba test for Tinubu makes no sense for anyone who knows yoruba people. Don't worry, they'd leave Tinubu and vote for Atiku because of terrorism, SMH. Like the South East ran from Obi or the North from fPMB. |
