Ogbenison1:
JAMB under the education has now turned to generating revenue for exorting the parents and candidates for exorbitant prices and we are celebrating 🍾 suffering
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.

Except he a gay. Oga, people are making it in dollars in Naija (all around me). I wonder 🤷🏾‍♂️
He doesn't have to be gay. He is simply doing everything to remain there. He has lived in Nigeria & also had a feel of that country. Its obviously he is better of there or at least has a better chance & hope of truly having a life there, unlike in Nigeria where his future looked blink. Situations must always favour few, even in war where many are dying some will be cashing out. Nigeria situation favours few & is majorly individual bases which is a risk. Same reason politicians keep doing everything to be in the circle where they can have access to loot. They know there is no system to look after them when they decide to be a spectator. This is the sad reality. The country is very unpredictable & hope is very unclear.

Senseless news.
A wanted criminal in Nigeria is a criminal any part of the world. Bloggers sha.
You didn't read the part the asylum seeker stated for been persecuted. Or you don't know some people do flee for such reasons, and any sane country he/she lands in is naturally obligated to protect him. I.e. like that lady that released the end sars video. Etc. Moreover, Nigerians have been using that channel since 14BC. So what is the officer even saying now. Like the situation is going to change anytime soon.
Phones › Re: Once You Lose your Phone, You Lose All Your Money In Your Bank Account. by IMASTEX: 8:15am On Jan 20, 2024
[quote author=elmoore676 post=128030544][/quote]Such apps are available on playstore. Just do a search & review. The one I am using is a default function on my phone security features. It only requires me to enter my personalized code in the security options and select the app I want to hide. And viola the app will disappear without trace.

I have partial solution to this...all my bank accounts are tied to just 1 SIM card and that SIM card is in a cheap torchlight phone which I keep at home permanently grin

An added security measure is that my SIM card is locked with a PIN code
tochez24:
first of all.... Nobody on earth can steal your money through bank app or ussd without your password, unless they got it from you in one way or the other without your consent⚠️

Secondly, to strengthen your protection... You can simply lock your phone and alert sim card. That way, when you loose your phone nobody can break into your phone, talkless of performing any transaction...absolutely nobody♂️
Some people just naturally lower their guards and blame everyone else but their carelessness. My bank mobile apps itself is passworded & privately hidden in my phone. To start with, I must dial my code to make the bank app visible. Before even entering the login password to access the app for use. Both my phone & my alert sim have pin lock. My online bank has hard token. I have a special account for online transactions & anything that requires my atm card.

Emefiele must not go down alone.

And why is his principal walking free?🤔
That shows its all a political game of distraction and before Nigerian knows it, another 8 years is gone. Look beyond the bigger picture, anything happening to Emefiele without directly involving Buhari is a game. In some standard organization, an overseeing supervisor is first sanctioned for lack of competence before any of his subordinate who commits an offense is been addressed.

If BAT forced the camel through the needle's eye when he wasn't even in power to achieve his life long ambition. It is now that he is fully in charge that he won't retain the power. I am not a fan of BAT, I am talking as a realist.

nairalanda1:
If you were a businessman, and you were selling yam you bought from farmer at N1500 per tuber, will you sell that same tuber at N200 per tuber to help the poor breathe? To help the masses breathe?

You will not, because your business will die.

Dangote needs to pay salaries(at the rate that his workers would not jakpa), pay taxes, pay for crude at international prices, pay for maintenance costs, etc etc. Expecting him to do all that and then sell fuel at N200 per liter because of the masses is a big joke.

Businesses are not charities. They exist to make profits, and to make more profits. They do not care about the masses, because if they let the masses set their prices, they would crash. If the masses were allowed to set MTN and Airtel prices, they would crash well well.

Hopefully, it would reduce the pressure on dollars, and hopefully this means the cost of transporting fuel falls. But the era of cheap fuel is over. NNPC is even now a private company self.

The funny thing is people will call me oppressor now. Ok. If a business cannot set its prices, how would it make profit for shareholders and workers? Shebi government go pay am? Lol.
You have stated the obvious and I quite partially agree with you on the business angle. Meanwhile, the government owes it a responsibility to create a balance in the system. I.e. a person can decide to sell a yam for 10k per yam. Same yam he bought from a farmer at 200 & other cost 500 making a total of 700 expenses incurred. And make 9k profit especially on essential products yet the govt will look the other way. So it's more of exploitation rather than business. These are also one of the artificial causes of inflation. No regulations on profit ratio. Not to mention the strengthening & support for market monopoly by government actions & inactions. This will continue to create the wide gap there by enriching the rich & weakening the poor. This is my general observation of the Nigeria business environment. On the Dangote refinery, there won't be price cut neither will it improve the pressure on forex. The only merit is that there will be product availability.

At least it will reduce pressure on forex.
That should have been one of the guarantee merit. But Nigeria politicians can't be trusted. Watch and see how they will blame other sector for forex scarcity. After artificially hoarding it for individual gains.
