Where do they breed this Nairaland braggart from? Have you been to the market and not feel the atmosphere? I don't blame you though, people that are being fed can't tell good or bad times apart. 1 Like |

Politics / Re: $196 Billion Siphoned Abroad By Nigerian Elites - Tax Justice Network. by ivolt: 5:49pm On Feb 21 |
Another misleading headline. How can someone siphon their own money? Tax evasion is a global phenomenon, you tackle it with laws not noise. |

NairalandForumo:Yes, my point is that they may think that is what they want to do but will find out they can't and quietly not raise the issue again after some few weeks of noise. Do you remember when Emefiele seized the assets of companies who traded in foreign stocks, he eventually lost the case in court as there is no law banning Nigerians from trading in foreign stocks. 2 Likes |

NairalandForumo:Only neophytes will repatriate their funds to Naira out of fear. In fact, a person can hold and spend crypto without touching the Naira. The experienced people understand that those making the policy are crypto illiterate. That explains their policy summersault. https://www.premiumtimesng.com/business/business-news/653606-cbn-lifts-ban-on-cryptocurrency-transactions.html#:~:text=The%20CBN%20announced%20the%20reversal,manage%20cryptocurrency%20to%20avoid%20misuse.

heniford2:If you think they can, then you don't understand how crypto works. You think the CBN will write to Binance, hey Binance, give me all the crypto belonging to Nigerians and Binance will say, take it all my lord. As what exactly? The worst that can happen is a ban which will be meaningless to crypto savvy folks. If you disagree, explain how the Nigeria government can seize crypto it does not own. 8 Likes 2 Shares |

So, the CBN governor didn't know what he was doing when he lifted the crypto ban. https://www.premiumtimesng.com/business/business-news/653606-cbn-lifts-ban-on-cryptocurrency-transactions.html#:~:text=The%20CBN%20announced%20the%20reversal,manage%20cryptocurrency%20to%20avoid%20misuse. This advice is pointless. The government can only block crypto websites, it cannot take possession of the coins. 7 Likes 1 Share |

DeLaRue: National debt aren't secret. Any interested person can get the info. The foreign reserve is not $3.7 billion. If it is, why has Cardoso not updated the figure. Is he also working for Buhari Dumb lies. The only case that could be brought up is the $6.2 million "forged cheque". Shouldn't the government be prosecuting some people for billions allegedly stolen? Crude oil for loan didn't start with Buhari. Tinubu also did the same thing with Afrexim loan. If it was a bad thing, why is Tinubu also selling future oil? BTW, Tinubu never for once criticized Buhari when he went on borrowing spree.
Because he either fully knows what he was getting into or he is so incompetent that he didn't bother to understand the Nigerian economy before claiming he can fix it. |
Politics / Re: Sap Failed. Will Tinubu's 'reforms' Succeed - The Cable by ivolt: 2:45pm On Feb 17 |
SAP did not fail. Journalists were just spouting nonsense about it. SAP was designed to help a debt-ridden country manage its debt through extreme austerity measures. Nothing more nothing less. So, the result will always be worsening living conditions and cutting of government benefits. SAP is not a miracle cure for economic breakthrough. It was implemented to avoid total economic collapse. |

insidelife22:New investors are good but they will actually sell at a higher price than existing ones or they risk folding up in the short term. Competition brings down prices only when an economies of scale has been achieved by some of the established players. So, new investors will take at least 5 to 10 years to influence the market. 4 Likes |

Family / Re: Help Me To Appreciate My Wife In This Tough Period by ivolt: 11:05am On Feb 16 |
tochez24:Who gets angry because another man celebrates his wife? Losers of course. How many white men, Indian or Chinese have you met and interacted with? Even smart employers specially appreciate their exceptional employees even though they pay salaries and have the power to fire them at will. All I see is an adult with children brain. I don't blame you though, having spend several decades on earth, it would be painful if the only thing you have to show for in relationships are the hookers and the urgent 2k hustlers. Of course, this is the internet, you are free to claim whichever character you fantasize to be so you can get accolades from your fellows. @OZIOGU1, ignore the embittered souls. Your wife is a great woman, celebrate her. 8 Likes |
Politics / Re: Saraki, Sanusi: How They Took Over Intercontinental Bank From Akingbola by ivolt: 8:31am On Feb 16 |
I think the question should be why Saraki was particularly interested in IB, why not First Bank, GTB or Zenith? The fact is that IB bank has very bad loans and risky balance which the sharks took advantage of. It is even very likely that Saraki and Erastus have engaged in shady deals together and Saraki got angry when Erastus refused to help him out on another deal. Erastus should have resigned to save IB bank and let a neutral non-political manager take over. There is just too much rot in the Nigerian political space. A politician should not have the influence to liquidate or merge banks. 6 Likes |

christistruth01:By your logic one million people sharing 1 million Naira are as rich as one hundred people sharing 1 million Naira. Yes, politicians emoluments should be cut down and that is because the country is poor not rich. |
