[color=royalblue]80k for first clearing?

Subsequent ones never dey. Omoh!

How much you go sell the yam when e mature? [/color]

The 80k is for clearing 5 acres? Seems fair if not cheap.

BlueRayDick:
Ah! Scientific calculator 8k keh ? As in normal Casio ? Not the one Texas instrument calculator those writing CFA use ?

Around 2019 or thereabouts when I was to write an exam I asked someone to help me get that same Casio calculator which he did and collected 2,500 from me. I thought he actually added to the cost but I got he earned it sha cos I needed it badly that day .

Na wa o. U sure say education never expensive pass ignorance like this ?

The normal Casio o. I'm also buying for an exam.

Exam wey Tinubu make person go dey write

[color=royalblue]I don't know about PH, but when it rains in Lagos, there's this raincoat made of nylon that some women usually hawk

I was surprised when i knew that it was imported.

Like....nylon that was cut into a raincoat size, was imported?

We don't produce anything in this country. So, i won't be surprised is Oxford Maths Set gets to 15,000 someday [/color]

I was recently having that conversation with madam when I bought soap and saw it was manufactured in Indonesia

BlueRayDick:
It’s just so annoying .

Honestly I think supermarkets and malls have yahoo boys to thank for still being in business o. I mean how many legit hustlers fit afford to dey spend those kind money on toiletries and groceries alone when there are other needs begging for attention ? Ordinarily magic shaving cream don Dey cost 5k, kiwi polish over 1k, body cream over 5k .Harpic toilet cleaner nko? Bath soap nko ? Air freshener nko?

Imagine being on Band A , having a car to fuel , having black tax to pay to ur family members , and still being a dutiful father and husband in this Tinubu regime . And they said it is baby step of pains 🤦‍♂️

No wonder bobrisky left .

Make I shock you. Scientific calculator is now 8000 . I don't think it was more than 800 when I last bought it. What kind percentage increase is this? These were things we could easily afford from our meagre pocket money back in the days and still have enough to last us the month.

Saw a thread on twitter where most ladies were lamenting they can no longer afford to make their hair.

It has never been this bad.

BlueRayDick:
Anybody living in Nigeria and not an APC member will not rate him more than 4/10 in the last one year considering the living conditions of people generally .

For the life of me, I never thought a loaf of bread will cost more than 1k between last year and this year .

U will visit a mall to buy just toiletries and when they scan on the cashiers desk u are already paying tens of thousands . 🤦‍♂️

Anybody who thinks because it is his first year and it’s too early to judge him is just being delusional . We all know as Nigerians that things can only get worse and not better . Let’s not even talk about cost of fueling a car sef .

Had to quote this separately. I think say na only me

Dem go just scan a few things you go hear N37,000.

I have lost count the number of times I've heard, "remove this one" at the counter.

I don't think the guy in that screenshot lives in Nigeria. 4/10 is being too generous. What is the 4/10 for?

Security is in shambles, economy in tatters, poverty is at all time high, agriculture is comatose and food inflation has skyrocketed.

Only reason I gave him 1/10 is for the few ministers who are trying their best.

Meanwhile on this fuel issue, I'm starting to think it's a ploy to prepare us for Dangote. Dangote will likely sell around 900-1000 which is the price we are currently buying.

1/10 for me.

Oasisx, do you agree with this assessment?

OasisX:


......us you mean are Obidients bá?! LOL!

All of us

Obidients are more likely to swallow his lamba though.

OasisX:


.....read the full story bro. Believe the Headline at your peril LOL!

All lies. Someone who already bought presidential form before the result of the zoning committee is coming to tell us he contested because the zoning committee threw the ticket open.

Let's even agree with him. Why didn't he collapse his PDP structure into LP since LP gave Obi the ticket and that's what he initially wanted PDP to do.

Atiku does not rate us at all

TrebleChamp:
Apt, also their was no way a Northerner will have been voted to replace Buhari. Maybe Atiku would have won if he had Obi as running mate as it has been insinuated here, but me personally would never vote Atiku in any election...

While there will be several like you who would never have voted Atiku, it was still the best ticket to unseat APC.

Some have argued the same ticket couldn't defeat Buhari in 2019. What they forget is, Tinubu is not Buhari.

raumdeuter:
If this is clear to you, I wonder what got in the head of Atiku and Obi that they didnt realize it. Bury your difference and merge in 2023 otherwise. Sope Otilor

Imagine say in 2015 Instead of Tinubu aligning with Buhari ACN and CPC went into the 2015 elections individually vs PDP

There wont have been a Buhari nor Tinubu presidency.

Their ego and ambition got in the way of common sense.

TrebleChamp:
Obi, Atiku or any politician thinking of running in 2027 are just playing, that election result is already inside INEC safe drawer. Tinubu will rule for 8years, unless God has other plans......

Exactly. The best time to merge and present formidable opposition to APC was 2023. The next will be 2031.

raumdeuter:
Credit to Obi, Obi in his allegation never claimed he won the election

raumdeuter:
Lol unless Obi is foolish will he believe that

See the screenshot mentioned PDP, which will mean Obi will have to come back to PDP

So say Obi leaves LP to PDP then Atiku picks the ticket again

What will Obi do? Defect back to LP? Even his most serious supporter will call him a jester

Atiku is just whining Obi to fold his LP platform with deception that he can be given PDP ticket

If Obi wants to defect to PDP, he should wait until PDP makes it official that ticket is going to the South or SE

From reactions I've read, it does seem like Atiku was implying a new party will be formed and Obi given ticket if that's the decision. I still agree with your conclusion, a man like Atiku is not to be trusted and Obi will be foolish to believe him.

My own is, if you say Tinubu rigged the last election and even fought it in the court, on what grounds are you excited and pushing for another election. Will Tinubu forget how to rig in 2027?

My thoughts too. They are even made to sign an informed consent form before surgery.

May 27th - June 6th

Nine day long event ✅

The good people of Abuja are enjoying good governance.

The second customs officer knows you bribed the first and wants his share.

BlueRayDick:
If it’s that simple, then why were retirees having issues assessing their savings as at October 2023 prompting the house committee to raise a motion on it ?

I've responded to your other post. Just click the link.

BlueRayDick:
I are clearly not well informed about this matter for u to claim there’s been no uproar on this nonsense FG borrowings Bubari dem started .

https://www.thecable.ng/reps-move-to-recover-n10trn-pension-fund-borrowed-by-fg/amp/

As at October 2023 the house of reps was still trying to recover over 10 trillion

The link below further explains what I was saying earlier.

They are not taking the money because it's not possible. It's the same way pension managers have been investing pension funds into govt bonds and Bill's. There's no difference.

The government do not have the power to take money that is not even there's and in private custody.

Simple. This has been the practice for as long as I can remember.

If it's about them not paying back, the government will rather print money to pay than default.

We the owners of the money even get to earn some returns on our money. The accumulated interest for some of us is in 6 and 7 figures.

Again, I don't get why this is now generating so much uproar.

BlueRayDick:
I think organized private sector , pension funds custodian and senior lawyers actually need to sue the Federal government on this matter .

Number one the pension funds do not belong to the federal government but to retirees whom the pension funds serves as their savings . The federal
Government does not have any legal right to just dip hands into the funds simply because of any phantom plan of infrastructural development .

Another issue is that Nigerian government does not have any capacity to return such funds if they are allowed to “borrow” it.

I read the full article and I saw them talking about phantom ideas of utilizing part of the funds for housing projects which they intend to make available to the pensioners on mortgage . From where I stand I can see through the bullshiiit that like most housing projects if and when such houses are built; like most government housing projects the masses whose pensions were “borrowed “ to construct the project will never benefit from it.

If government needs money for infrastructure development they should go to the international financial market where they have always sourced funds they waste and embezzle . Let them add to the gbese on the neck of the country . They should not put the funds of retirees at risk while going about their rubbish wastefulness .

Nigerian government has been borrowing pension funds for as long as I can remember.

Pension fund managers are one of the biggest investors in NTBs and savings bond. When you buy fixed income instruments from the government, you're essentially borrowing the government money.

Why is this one generating so much uproar?

Didn't he play that role a couple of times and fluffed his lines?

It is a brainless dolt talking. Theflint1 can confirm. These devices all have unique serial numbers and dedicted IPs and accounts. All they need to do is get serial number from the dish and they can engage starlink for details of who bought, who registered and who pays for the service.

It will be easy to track down who pays for use of that particular device, even their internet history

More so as Elon is from you buy it you can't transfer it school.

This has the potential to be a major success. Anyone saying ban starlink is imho a boko haram sponsor who realises starlink is burned for them

This one you're saying is too much work when we can just ban

I'm sure someone in government has seen the tweet by Bashir and gotten ideas

Amigoss:
See these glory hunters,man city no get level....There is a reason everyone wants them to win league rather their rivals or top6 competitors

True. It ends at being trolled on social media for most of us if City wins.

Starlink ban loading

BlueRayDick:
Well, for a fact I don't know if provisions were made or not. I'm sure u also don't know, but u are willing to believe it was made

I guess Wike himself needs to speak to the matter , this ur speculations of Fubara sitting on the supposed provision will not fly for now.

Lol, I was only providing an explanation. Not necessarily saying that's what happened. It may be something else and you may be right. None of us know for sure what exactly transpired. That's why I said when politicians fight, the truth suffers.

As for the second paragraph, media chat is loading.

BlueRayDick:
I am not an expert on Rivers state matters, na why I wan learn from u. The flyer u shared the other day showed more than one project commissioned by Fubara na

Only one of the projects was started and completed by him. That was the one Otti commissioned yesterday.

BlueRayDick:
U this man !

So u actually believe that for roads completed in 2016 and 2017 the outstanding funds held for retention would not have been due for over 6 and 7years respectively?

Okay let us agree they were not due as at then but provisions were made for them by the administration, where are the provisions now? If there are provisions will Fubara be complaining ?

So how do you know provision was not made? Who says Fubara is not the one blocking the payment to frustrate the contractors who would have been associates of Wike.

This is a man who has a well documented history of saying something in public and does another in private.

As they say, when politicians fight, the truth suffers.

BlueRayDick:
U mean it was within first one year Wike achieved everything he achieved? Wonderful!

You mean he had one project to his name after one year? Wonderful!

iamoyindamola:
So wike interference will bring good governance
They play

He has stopped interfering since October last year.

Since then, we have been enjoying the effect good governance everywhere in Rivers State. When are you coming to enjoy with us?
