no place is easy now....but the business man is a bit better than a government staff now.

The business man is better. Especially those selling essential products. And even for them, demand is seriously dropping.

My friend who is a government teacher in Ogun State said he has told them he can only come to school twice a week. If dem wan sack am make dem sack am. He can't be using his entire salary on transportation.

KingTom:
Na ritualists dey do Poultry now, because how can you buy feed for 9,500, 10,200, 11,700, and 12,500 in the same week

Na why una dey sell crate of egg to us for 4,500.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Buying and selling no be am again!

I am absolutely tired!

The thing no get head and tail again.[/color]

Una wey dey do business dey try. Especially those who took loans to run the business.

God forbid I use my money to do any actual business in this country till the Fx situation stabilises.

EmmanuelScott1:
Um the bolded, is this an exaggeration or actual?

Even more. Some of them have done more than 500% increase. Add that to the devaluation of the currency from 1000 to 1750 and you'll arrive at that figure.

I will devote some time to it within the week.

This is my fear of crypto, most of the projects feel like MMM, the early adopters make money and the late adopters are left holding the bag. It all still feels like ponzi in a sense, although there's the legacy coins like BTC and Ethereum that can be pointed at as maintaining stability.

True, it's just MMM. Reason why I think it's best to avoid it when it's already making the highs. Those who bought low may just be dumping on you.

And most importantly is to put money you can afford to risk.

Realmrsean:
bro, crypto has been my hedge against this tinubunomics..

If naira like, make e reach 10k/$, I no send em papa..

The only good advice I can give you, if you have any money whether in naira or dollar, use it and buy any AI coin like
TAO
FET
XAI
SOLIDIUS AITECH
ETC

As artificial intelligence will lead this narrative of the bull run ..

But if you want to work in crypto, go and research how to farm airdrops, both testnets and retroactive airdrops..

Tinubu until 2057

Did a little reading. Those coins have been on an upward trend since October/November last year. Will it not be better to wait for pullback?

These coins can be so rewarding financially. 400k invested in October/November in some of them is now worth more than 9m naira.

At the same time, if it reverses, oyo.

iamoyindamola:
Do it asap
It's a 50/50 risk you might need it or not

BlueRayDick:
Omo, u need to not only consider it but opt for it o. Paying 5% of the value of the car to get protection in this uncertain period is a good decision no matter how u look at it.

Let's say for example the car is worth 10m and u paid N500k as premium(5%); if something happens like u park ur car in front of church and after service u can't find ur car due to theft.....even if the car is now N15m at market value, if insurance give u N9m sef it's still better than having 0 balance and looking for a whole N15m to replace same car.

I'll definitely go back to it. Can't imagine replacing any car out of pocket at the moment.

BlueRayDick:
Anybody wey get car now, make dem just do comprehensive insurance . If person lose him car to theft or write-off accident like this , to see money replace same car without insurance go hard o

I'm seriously considering going back to it. Stopped briefly when they increased it to 5% the value of the car. What made it more difficult was that I used to pay 1.9%.

Itsrm:
Wait till you see new prices. This one was likely bought two months ago.

Moderately accidented units will go for 8.6-9m for this same car. Just be patient, you'll soon see it

Baba dey shout GASLIGHT 😭

There's no interview of this man on Arise I haven't watched. Always a comic relief.

BlueRayDick:
For someone who has lived in the north before , I know all of these things are more is definitely happening in the north as we speak.

The fact that bandits and terrorists make it hard for people to farm in peace since the days of Buhari has made their case precarious .

Only God knows what those Islamic clerics will
Be cooking for Tinubu up north as we speak like this .

Shey they wanted muslim-muslim ticket

They have not yet started.

The man also mentioned what you just said. That they don't have industries or companies and the farming they were using to sustain themselves has gone down due to insecurity. They've been relying on handouts from political appointees and they don't even have much of that again.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]My God will judge you![/color]

I lie?

Atiku barely defeated Tinubu in Katsina. He got more than 400,000 votes there. How is it that the people most affected by poor governance make this kind of choices over and over again during elections only to start crying afterwards?

https://www.nairaland.com/8004278/hardship-honestly-dont-know-why

We are quiet because we are smarter now. Wail from today till 2027, we will not bite! You powered this “shege” enjoy the “banza” and leave Igbo people out of your hypocrisy.

Ndi Ara!

I met someone who just arrived PH from Katsina on Saturday. He said he was surprised to see people still driving all around town that this hardship did not get to PH at all.

Said if I see what is happening in Katsina, I'll pity them. Divorce everywhere. Women are leaving their husbands houses back to their fathers house, their favourite food tuwo is almost impossible to eat. Even the appointments they use to hold body here and there has been taken away from them by Tinubu. He said the people are very angry with Tinubu.

My only response to him was, you people voted him into power, you have not started yet. 7+ more years to go.

Emaprince:
And they had all the technocrats like they told us. Now they are admitting they are clueless and powerless to do anything. So we should brace up for more disaster. A devilish pack of humans gifted to Nigerians as leaders.

They have the tools to fight insecurity, but will never do that. Thought names of sponsors of banditry was handed to past govt, and nothing was heard about it again.
Medical tourism is something those in position to fix our problem are the forefront of. They are the ones throwing us into this mess, but one mugu dey ask why are you laughing..instead of calling out the real cause of our problems.

This is the problem when institutions collapse. With INEC and the judiciary in the bag, there's no incentive to do well.

That is why they can look us in the eyes and tell us they have no solution.

I have said it before, everyone is feeling the heat. It does not matter how much you earn or in what currency you earn it.

Even our brothers outside the country were surprised when they came home last December. The money no go far again.

And things were still a lot better in December.

E no go tey before una resume the attack vs defence argument.

User09:
At the risk of not sounding partisan, what do you find funny about it?

As far as I know, the writer is also an employee of the FG; especially on media matters

Did you see the twitter handle that posted it? They are more or less telling us they can't do anything about the exchange rate.

Hey! Don't bother about the circulars and the monetary policies, we are just playing around. The situation is beyond us.

liveLongNprospa:
Bleep me😂😂😂😂

Itsrm:
And if they score as they likely will, how exactly is he planning to score with 5 defenders.

Foolish coach. Guess who deflected it in?

Emaprince:
Guy...this man is even more foolish than I thought

So he mean to tell us that he can play with city? He can only defend and hope to go home with a point?

In this beginning of this game...we cane out and went toe to toe with them and we were rewarded and even missed chances. Now he wants to defend and think a fusilade of attacks from city won't penetrate the defence.

And if they score as they likely will, how exactly is he planning to score with 5 defenders.

Is Pochettino planning to defend with 20 minutes to go?

Emaprince:
Was that an offside or these players just wasted the ball like that

Would have been offside

This is why I'll never rate Gusto. Pass the damn ball

Where is the Aba nostradamus who predicted a 6 NIL win to city.

Palmer, Jackson, Sterling.. fantastic job

Goaaalll

iamoyindamola:
Why will he give such money and work against him during the election

Was he able to work against him in states like Abia, Enugu, Anambra that Atiku would have naturally won?

Where he couldn't reach, he sent his money.

And before prospa will misquote me, I'm just advancing an argument why he may have given him money

liveLongNprospa:
Sure sure.
It's not unusual.
So are you saying wike gave Obi?
Since you have said its not unusual 😁

No, I'm saying I can't dismiss it as a lie same way I can't confirm it to be true.

Are you saying it is strange for politicians to give out money during elections?

liveLongNprospa:
Lmao.. To help Itsrm, he is saying wike stole enough from rivers state to give out 700m.

Now whether he gave Obi 700m is a different story😁

Exactly. I'm not saying he gave him or didn't give him. But it's not something I can put past Wike simply on the basis of the amount being mentioned.

iamoyindamola:
Now you are changing narrative
I don't understand this your obsession with wike sha

What narrative. Read my response to Izzou. I'm not for or against the argument. That money is not beyond what Wike can give out. That's my point.

iamoyindamola:
Because it's not possible, it won't happen
You sef reason am
Why will he do that, give me a reason

Perhaps to further split Atikus votes. Secondly, it's not unusual to give out donations during elections.
