The abokis are involved in all of this economic brouhaha..
People will naturally seek ways to profit from a weak system any where in the world. That is why institutions are strengthened over individuals. But for Niaja, anything goes even the EFCC is not different from those they are chasing.

I hate to say this, So he should believe the story just because it was written by the police? undecided specially going by what they have been largely well-known for over the years. If they were truly & strictly for general policing. I doubt if many will be avoiding them like plague. If issues are handled professionally, most of this reactions won't be the case.
Business / Re: Why Are Bank Accounts Called 'aza' In Nigeria? by IMASTEX: 9:57pm On Feb 14
Indispensable85:



It originated from Benin. Aza is a Benin term for account or a reservoir of money.

HNICEARTH:


You heard it first in benin, does not mean it originated from Benin. It's not a benin word, it's an igbo word.
You guys are so funny in this online. You don't understand Edo language, yet you're disagreeing with a speaker. There is nothing like account, treasury, etc in Edo language. The word "aza" is what is used since time immemorial. You can easily hear that from aged persons that don't understand English. "De eghe na khan gba aza." Simply means when are we disbursing or crediting, etc.
If the word coincidentally means same in your language, no big deal. After all it won't reduce the price of fuel.

Agriculture / Re: Top 10 Producers Of Yam Globally 2022 by IMASTEX: 8:53am On Feb 09
lexy2014:


who are the "You & every other users"?

how has the present status as largest Yam producer in the world helped "You & every other users"?

how has it achieved the highlighted?
Been the largest doesn't automatically means been sufficient. Hence the highlighted can't be a factor. Nigeria hasn't been able to farm her food needs.
Agriculture / Re: Top 10 Producers Of Yam Globally 2022 by IMASTEX: 8:04am On Feb 09
lexy2014:


who will it help if Nigeria is doing 10 times of that figure?
You & every other users. I.e. the price will moderate. There is export opportunities, the product can equally be used in different forms such as flowers, animal feed, etc. Not to mention those that will be productively engaged.
Agriculture / Re: Top 10 Producers Of Yam Globally 2022 by IMASTEX: 11:13pm On Feb 08
SoNature:
Most of our local farm produce is now costly because herders are destroying farmers' farms without consequences.

It's even worse in the north where terrorists fine farmers before you are allowed to go to farm. If you refuse to pay, you are wasted.
If not for the above mentioned, Nigeria should be doing times 10 of that figure as minimum.
Health / Re: Health Workers Kick As Nigerian Nursing Council Introduces Stringent Conditions by IMASTEX: 10:07pm On Feb 08
wethebest:


Thats why anyone that wish to work as a doctor or nurse abroad, should go and school dere. Simple. I don't gv a Bleep about the evil apc and the President but Nigeria nd those still living in it.
If the govt open door for all Doctors nd nurses to leave d country, who will treat those that can't afford to go abroad?
At bolded, this is why the people should place a demand on the government to be more responsible. Rather than waiting for the professionals to keep making sacrifices like every citizens are already doing. Many of those leaving aren't really comfortable with the decision but are compared to due to the situation on ground. Poor welfare, zero security, infrastructure, uncertain economy/future, etc to live a meaningful life as humans. Emigration is part of human and people will always keep moving for different reasons. Who says that Nigeria trained healthcare professionals must be the one to do the job? Why are foreigners relocating to certain destination to render services? What are those people doing right? That Nigeria can't do to also attract the best hands from across the globe? You keep mentioning subsidized school? What is the standard of the school? The one that subject doctors to even upgrade to be able to practice abroad? What will you say about the IT and other professions leaving in droves? We aren't ready to focus on the root cause yet.

The day u chose to be a nurse or doctor, u took the same oath security personnels took to save lives in sweet and worse condition. No leave, no transfer. If to work as doctor and nurse abroad dey hungry u, Go sch dere and remain dere. U can't b getting cheap medical certification frm a country u re not willing to serve.
Why not channel this your energy to the right direction. Start with the minister of education whose kids school abroad, minister of health, the president and others who don't even know what the Nigeria hospitals look like, Chief medical tourist. I guess they aren't on oath. undecided undecided

I think FG should make hypertension test a compulsory for all citizens...
You're calling on the same government that made many hypertensive in the first place. Been a Nigerian living in Nigeria at the moment is enough reason to have HBP. The state of the economy, insecurity, poor infrastructure, etc is always after the lives of the citizens except those criminals in government.
Politics / Re: EFCC Raises Task Force Against Dollarization Of Economy by IMASTEX: 8:29am On Feb 08
emkz:
This was my comment on this matter a few days back. The overt dollarization of the Nigerian economy is dangerous especially when we have no control over the currency.

Sincerity of purpose is all it takes to make things work. If those in authority are the same law breakers, how will things change? The government knows exactly how to fix things, but they won't because they are the most benefactors while few other citizens follow their steps.

People who eat it says it's yummy. I just look at em with side 👁️ cheesy

It's called *edible* in some parts of Delta State.
grin grin grin bombastic side eye.
I once shared same feeling until one pregnant business partner started disturbing me to get some for her since I was doing a business trip to Delta state. Initially ignored, but seeing her frequent reminder, I knew her condition was pushing her grin So I got some for her. I requested she gives me one, I ate it base on personal protocol. I must confess it was very nice. grin grin
Sports / Re: AFCON: South African Official, Clayson Monyela Accused Of Xenophobic Comment by IMASTEX: 12:16pm On Feb 07
DadaStephen1:


It has nothing to do with the government of Nigeria.

If your brothers will stop going there to disgrace us by peddling drugs and misbehaving, a useless country with poverty stricken black population controlled by the whites will not have the temerity to look us in the face.

Can we go and be telling them it’s our Yiboe blodas misbehaving in South Africa?
They wouldn’t know, they will pack all of us together and disrespect us.
It is beyond the reasons given since other smaller well behaved Africa countries were equally targeted. It's more of an inherent low self-esteem to even pick on legitimate business/working persons. Of course, if Nigerians weren't running there for economic reasons there wouldn't have been the case of "see-finish".

When a lion loses it's teeth & claw it quickly becomes a pet. If the Nigeria government has reacted with an airstrike. I doubt if they will ever dream of the word xenophobia let alone carrying out the act against any other Africa country.

Exactly my thought. Some students write and pass yet can't secure admission due to available space in the universities. Thus keep rewriting JAMB year in year out.
