do you manufacture electronics??.....you

You cannot manufacture everything as a nation,you'd import some then produce some.
Balance of trade exists for a reason...

lexy2014:
Is it GDP that makes nigeria a producing economy with regards d devaluation of d naira against d dollar? Is production d only way of measuring GDP?

Go and educate yourself properly before you come and expose your ignorance.
GDP=Gross Domestic Product.
Doesn't this tell you that this function is a measure for productivity?
Despite devaluations,GDP still stands at the same value or close to where it was pre devaluation,this should tell you that the naira value of GDP increased,ie productivity has been increasing....

lexy2014:
because nigeria isn't a producing economy

A country with a GDP of $450B isn't a producing economy?
Then what is?

lexy2014:
This is text book economics which isn't applicable in Nigeria. If not, it will amount to putting d cart before d horse

How is it not applicable to Nigeria?

tensazangetsu20:
It's easy to sit behind a keyboard and talk. Have you tried exporting anything outside Nigeria before. Go and do that and come back and talk.

You are so dumb,he wasn't talking about export,rather satisfying local demand since as imports will be too expensive.
Besides,I've noticed you are very lazy and like to drag everyone down with you.
Because you haven't succeeded with export means it is impossible?
What a dunce,later you'd be screaming unemployment up and down,entitled cow.

awesomeJ:
I have.

I mentioned the 470 could be a buying opportunity.

My valuation remains 405.

Your valuation is not reality oga.
Abokis took advantage of naive people again like they did when CBN said they'd commence fx sales last september.
This CBN new policy on banks paying dollars for remittance recipients is dead on arrival.

awesomeJ:
There's need for a balanced view.

When people say 480 is cheap, on what basis?

I am saying sub 400, because the largest player in that market supplied at 386.

Now I can say sub 405, cos they now do 392.

Most folks just quote based on their sentiments against the currency.

This 470 could be another buying opportunity like 435 was, I don't know.

My opinion remains that as long as CBN supplies at 392, anything above 405 is not sustainable.

Go back and check
485 as we speak.

I stated it that the place is very small. Any grand picture you see of it, must be just angles. Nothing big or special about it. In fact, think of it as a bar close to the water.




Lol. Na me and you dey this NL since, you no toast me. Too late...

Welcome back

Na for NL you want make them toast you?
I think say you say you dey work for system specs.So all those nice,working guys weh dey there no reach you to toast?

Make we give am benefit of the doubt bros.

Well true.

If you have come this far, nothing stops you from completing the process of exposing him then because you have done a damage to his reputation already.

As for the second part, I can say for example that the only money I have access to is 5M in TB, it does not means I do not have a house, shares invested in some companies and other forms of investments that have tied my money down. Provide more receipt as you have called it.

He don't have any more substantial evidence.All bickering.
If he did,he would have posted already,don't mind the weyrey.

Wow,things are getting a little bit interesting
But How do you know that is his name?
His brother could be the Ahmed,how do you know that?

Shebi I tell una?make una continue,na una go suffer am pass.
The elites have enough money to love very well even with naira at 1000/USD.
It's you the masses that will suffer and die of hunger and lack of medication.
Make una continue ooo,EndSARS

You and those who liked this post are bunch of nitwits. A leech that wants to benefit from peoples impoverishment. You that is claimjng CEO how many people have you employed? Onitsha tomato seller

I am an Onitsha boy that pulled himself out of misery,comfortable enough to not want to destabilise a nation over my personal incompetence and failures.
I don't look for who to blame like some of you,reason I am not frustrated enough to be protesting senselessly on the streets of Nigeria.
Nigeria youths are lazy,irresponsible and are the reason for their misfortunes,not the government.
Especially this useless generation.
Make una no go find work,you will keep blaming government till you grow white hairs.
Anyways the army is coming to reset your brains soon.
Country of 200m people that still has crude oil as it's most significant source of fx should tell you a lot about its youths.
A smuggler is better than the average youth in my opinion that will sit at home and wait to be spoon fed and not want to take his destiny in his hands.
All sorts of rubbish socialist programs,yet no way.N power,you win,all those rubbish yet they still cant even feed themselves.
That is why they have all the time in the world to be protesting everyday.
You say I benefit from the system?Dude I didn't even graduate from university because I saw it as time wastage at that point in my life,neither have I ever seek for any job from your fùcked up government nor make any demands.
If all of you were like me,I'm sure Nigeria would not be the world poverty capital,ode!
Enough said.

Grupo:
Oga, you smuggle contraband fake wine into this country. Not just that, you rebrand and sell them as original. Yet you want the government to use brute force on peaceful protesters who have genuine concerns.

Indeed, the joke writes itself.

I don't even sell wine,so jokes on you.

OgogoroFreak:
What's stopping them from deploying same army to end kidnapping, bandits and bokoharam since?

What's stopping the US army you all worship from ending gun violence in the US,gang related murders and US narcotic problems since ?

Nigsrdumb:
You haven't achieved much, too much inequality in the country

The youths must make life miserable for comfortable saboteurs , who are happy with the status quo.

I'm on thier side , a country where an eleven year old works has a labourer and the politicians earning salaries unheard of.


Don't hate the country, hate the system.

Blame the 11 year old's father,government has nothing to do with it.
The lack of responsibility and entitlement of the country's citizens is off the roof.
All the people that are comfortable today made all that comfort for themselves.
Let the average Nigerian do same.
Bros,leave story...the Army is coming.
Come out to protest again and die,finish.

Nigsrdumb:
Ha , go and check China's history, they beheaded the corrupt politicians.

Hope you're following some American politics as well.


Endsars is a symptom of a larger problem.


Endcorruption is what Nigeria needs.


Kudos to you for being a productive citizen, there's no liberty without sacrifice.

Myself,the Nigerian government and like minds refuse to sacrifice the things we have achieved over foolish youths being stupid.
We rather sacrifice them instead,reason we are sending the Army.

Nigsrdumb:
Why would you deploy the army on protesters who are trying to end police brutality.

Too many saboteurs in the country , the sharks are very good at dividing all of you anyway.

As I've been advised too much shalaye dey cause headache.

But Nigerian is going nowhere if you guys don't learn to fight for your rights.

The only way I fight my fights is by bringing economic value to my country which also gives value to young Nigerians.
Not by senseless protest,meanwhile I cant wait for the army to start giving it hot to protesters
Even the most liberal country in the world deployed the national guard when the people think they could be stupid and get away with it.

Nigsrdumb:
Nigerian youths, you're doing well don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

You have a right to protest injustice, it's has simple as that.

Let them tell that to the Army that's about to be deployed.

Wiseoldman:
All these does not justify why the president of a sovereign country should be treated for ear infection in another country bros. Or why the grandchild of the potential next president of the largest black nation on earth need soo much to be British citizen, that the pregnant mum, needed to fly to UK during the heat of the lockdown.

I don't like to argue online, as it is usually pointless. But, you are killing man...lol. I will try not to reply again on this topic, so we don't derail this nice thread.

There is no right or wrong in this world.
The only thing that is real is money.
The earlier most of you emotional people know this,the better for you all.
Who gives a shìt about what's right or wrong?
All sane people care about is progress.

Wiseoldman:
Bros, a leader can't do what is best for him. He was voted/employed by the citizens. You need to understand this.

I can't do what I like in my place of work, I am paid to do and act right. Same way the leaders are paid to act SENSIBLE.

I can't be the CEO or Airtel and be wearing MTN shirt everywhere saying that i'm a capitalist. I will be fired asap!

"Capitalism is an economic system in which private individuals or businesses own capital goods. The production of goods and services is based on supply and demand in the general market—known as a market economy—rather than through central planning—known as a planned economy or command economy."

And private individuals are buying foreign nationalities and using foreign healthcare services because they can afford to or want to,so why are you bothering me with all this long talks?
Abi you want buy your own foreign nationality or go foreign hospital with your money then somebody deny you?
And using that MTN and Airtel example is really off.
It's nowhere written that politicians must use local services.

Wiseoldman:
Bros, this is not capitalism, it is what my people call "colonial mentality". The world leader in capitalism "US", their leader no dey pass DC if he wants to see a doctor.

I no understand how Buhari's visit to Oyinbo doctor be capitalism. Using your reasoning, Donald Trump whey dey use "Walter Reed hospital" for DC is a socialist?

Do what you think is best for you if you can afford it and forget about carrying the whole masses along,that's capitalism.
I cannot over explain this as I believe is very easy to understand.

Their initial demands have been met,now they coming up with others.
If we keep listening,it means this will never end.

DexterousOne:
Okay...
Let me give you the benefit of the doubt

If you were the adviser to Buhari
And we are being faced with endsars and all these as they are unfolding

What will you advice him to do?


As for me, I like being pragmatic and realist
I'll advice Buhari among other things
To instruct the IGP to throw some sars officers "under the bus"

This singular action will calm a lot of things down

Making an example out of some will show that the govt is serious

Now, dont get me wrong, the preliminary actions taken by the government has been relatively commendable so far....

However more concrete action need to be taken to really calm this

Resolving matters with ASUU to send these young students back to school ASAP is another deft move to make to pour sand inside this fire....

A simple announcement that we are back on the negotiating table with ASUU over this IPPIS thing and we are at advanced stage would work magic

These protests are a consequence of so many things we cannot ignore
And a smart government knows how to manoeuvre

No,I'll send in the commandos to the streets to teach the masses that the government cannot be held to ransom and I mean the whole 9 yards.
Helicopters,tanks,artillery,infantry,etc...
Peace is an illusion,the only thing that is real is fear and consequences,not that everyone wants to be peaceful.
You cant dialogue your way out of everything.

afroxyz:
Be slow to read and understand lest you expose your ignorance which is oozing. I never said govt should provide food. They should create the enabling environment for people to.progress. the capitalism that yiu are talking about only flourished because of the enabling environment provided. US and European countries that are discussing stimulus, tax credits and bailout, what is that? Is that not some form of socialism? Use sense Oga

Tax credit and bailout is socialism?Are you serious?
I am sure bank loans too is socialism.

afroxyz:
So the US and European countries tgat are discussing stimulus, tax credits and bailout, what is that? Use sense Oga

Stimulus is because of covid19,no one will fo that on a normal day.
Besides,we arent as rich as the US,so where do you expect Nigeria to get the money for stimulus from?
Tax credit and bailout is to stimulate industry,you don't even have industries to stimulate in the first place because you are lazy and unproductive and feel the government has to create industries for you to come and work In,wtf!
You are the one that needs to use your sense and get busy to build thr nation of your dreams,else Nigeria will continue to remain a poor country like it or not.

9jatriot:
Everyone agrees that SARS has to end, no question about that, but they wan use style turn am to something else.

Have you noticed that areas like Ladipo, Balogun Market, VI, and Alaba International market where people make their living do not have people coming out every day? There is a reason why.

The protest is continued by jobless people and we know all those areas you named have hustling people who don't have time for nonsense.
They've got families to feed for crying out loud.

afroxyz:
Its not your fault. You have food to eat and roof over your head, so you want the world to revolve around you.

Is it the role of the government to provide food for the masses?
See talk oo,the entitlement in this country is alarming.
Was America built by government or Capitalists?
I keep saying socialism is the reason Nigeria is backward today.

DexterousOne:
Your excitement will soon turn to disappointment


You would be surprised that the soldiers who will be sent out will even be the ones to protect the protesters from hoodlums who wanted to scatter the protests

lol this one think say army na boys brigade.
Army follow command,if the command is to end the protest,they will end it irrespective of infantry sentiments.
Your inexperience is amazing
