Once the strike fails in Lagos, it is over.
I think you are confusing strike with protest.
NLC strike never fails because NLC actually contribute to national purse.

Nonsense.
The marketers didn't remove subsidy.
The last time I check, there is no scarcity anymore.

Neither threats nor begging can change the mind of a marketer.

Yes, but not by much.

Daily Trust is right.
CBN indeed sold dollars for 630/N.

If you know anyone who regularly uses the I&E window, you can also confirm from them.

I know dey do not own refineries in Nigeria.
Then how can they be competitors to refinery owners?
PoliticsRe: Subsidy: Petrol Price Will Come Down, Says NNPC by ivolt: 6:03pm On Jun 01, 2023
Parachoko:
Mobil, Total etc
Neither Mobil nor Total owns a refinery in Nigeria.

The only possible competition to Dangote is BUA refinery in Akwa Ibom.
And if we learned anything from the cement industry, BUA sells at the same price
Dangote sells while blaming Dangote for the price!

There are other major and powerful companies in the oil sector who can compete with Dangote.

Well, I hope more Modular refineries will spring up very soon
Who are those major and powerful companies?

Why be say most very old buildings of magnificent proportions still dey stand gidigba, like the first story building in Nigeria and several others in the world.

Perhaps ancient constructions are more strict with standards.

What you should ask yourself is what happened to the other 99.99% of ancient buildings that didn't survive?

LP should have known that you don't rely on volunteers for serious cases.
The experienced lawyer on the team are working part-time and are focused on their
other higher-revenue cases.
PoliticsRe: Subsidy Is Over Means What by ivolt: 2:34pm On May 29, 2023
Mattswaggz:
it means that petroleum products prices will likely skyrocket except if Nigeria reduce its importation and refine crude locally (Dangote refinery can be a major boost in that case )......... but should Nigeria continue importation,, the price will increase which will also lead to an increase in the prices of other commodities across the country which means more hardship. undecided
Stop deceiving people with false hope.
There is no exception to the rule and it has nothing to do with importation or no importation.
Price of petrol will skyrocket and will affect every other good.

Ganduje and his love for Babariga and Dollars.
A man who is highly corrupt. I'm still shocked to know that nothing has been done about the Corruption charges against him. Could it be that he is immuned to prosecution as a sitting Governor? Will the law catch up with him at the expiration of his tenure?
I watch with keen interest
Stop misusing legal terms.
There is no corruption charges against Ganduje.
He is a free man until indicted and charged.

You should also Google California's yearly budget and then compare it with Nigeria's.
I am sure you know that countries are financially equal.
No one will complain if the US or China made such claim.
FamilyRe: I do not feel loved by my wife, Is this enough reason to quit my marriage? by ivolt: 7:43pm On May 24, 2023
@CuriousMind2022
Marriage is not Hollyhood romance where couples live happily ever after.
Stop chasing imaginary love.

The much hyped romance and love significantly reduces within 3 to 5 years of marriage.
In fact, it is biologically impossible to maintain such state of excitement for extended period of time,
it ebbs and flows.
That is when we separate smart couples from naive ones.
Smart couples adapt while the other ones lament and go out seeking a new toy
only to be hit with the same cycle once again.

The only question you need to answer is whether your wife hates you and
cannot be convinced otherwise.
If that is the case, then go for professional counselling together.
If counselling doesn't work, then separation is justified.

PoliticsRe: Refineries: How Dangote Group Was Chased Away From Rivers – Bobmanuel by ivolt:
Nwaetche:
What do you know about Rivers State?

I keep saying that any Industrialist can locate his industry in anywhere he feels he can make profit with ease. However our government is not being sincere to the peculiar problems of the Niger Delta.

Have you ever pondered what the North or even the South West would say if a Gold Refinery or base metal refinery is sited in Port Harcourt, Yenegoa, Warri or Benin instead of the North West where these metals are mined.
A private refinery can be located anywhere!
Yes, anywhere.
I don't know where your entitlement mentality is coming from.
Do you query European and Chinese companies who buy crude from Nigeria
for not siting the refinery in your state?
Nope.

So, why querying Dangote's decision who would also buy crude just like any other old refinery.

PoliticsRe: Second Niger Bridge Should Be Toll-Free Just Like Other FG Projects by ivolt: 8:38pm On May 23, 2023
Grit2943:
To be honest, it will be injustice to charge toll on usage of Second Niger Bridge while other projects done by the Federal government are toll-free.

Example is the newly constructed Loko-Oweto bridge linking Benue state and Nasarawa state.

I commend the FG for completing these two gigantic projects.
However, fairness must be taken into consideration in terms of usage.

Lastly, I am not from the SouthEast but a concerned Nigeria incase anyone tries to label me a tribalist for expressing this view of mine.

God bless Nigeria.
It is not a full FG project, it is a PPP project.
So profit needs to be made.

IGBOGENE27:
On the issues of satisfying the 25 percent requirement in FCT, I posit that, In the unlikely event that the SC disqualifies the president elect, based on double nomination pursuant to section 35 of the Electoral Act, the legal implication is that all the votes casted in favour of APC and their candidate, will amount to wasted votes. In that circumstance, Atiku will automatically satisfy the contentious 25 percent requirement in FCT, and also the 25 percent in 24 states of the Federation, and my Lords justices may in their wisdom, declare him as the president elect.

However, Where the court fails to make a pronouncement as to who is the rightful winner of the election, either the AGF or any other contestants, may on Monday morning file an application for judicial interpretation of the judgment at the SC, viz a Viz the constitution and the electoral Act, on who should be sworn in as the president.

But, where none, approaches the SC for interpretation, the president, may likely convene a National council of State's meeting, to determine who to be sworn in as an interim president, as nature abhors vacuum. But, the chances of interim government in today's Nigeria, is a near impossibility.

Lastly, in my opinion, I strongly believe that it's practically impossible for the Court to sack the president elect on 26th May.

Please, the above comments are just for academic purposes, as it was never intended to prejudice or sway the minds of the court.
Given the way the supreme court have dishing out unpredictable judgement recently such as the case of
Maina vs APC, it is very unlikely that Atiku or any other person will be declared winner even if Tinubu is disqualified.
If we now take into consideration, the fact that LP claim to be the lawful winner or
is arguing that the election is majorly flawed in the tribunal. The supreme court will be further constrained to declare a winner.
A rerun election is more likely.

What I see is either the supreme court reserving judgment or it will resolve the issue in favor of APC.

Ratello:
If this matter of jurisdiction is the case, what stops Supreme Court from throwing it out, why are they interested in the case all of a sudden and will even give judgment after cross examining the parties involved despite the fact that this case had been thrown out by a Federal High Court and Court of Appeal as a pre election matter which PDP has no locus standi to bring it up.....why? This is why I am interested in the case.....judgment will be served on May 26th, know this.
You are thinking from one angle.
Either the supreme court wants to sack Tinubu or they want to make it easy for the election tribunal to dismiss PDP and LP's petition.
Remember that a supreme court judgment will be binding on the tribunal.
