nigerians do not kn ow how to tone it down.

nigerians are not the only criminals in south africa, but they are definitely the most hated ones - so much so that we were caricatured in the movie district 9.

we are not the only undesirables in dubai either. but we are the ones who got banned.

we dont have a filter - which is why you will also see videos of us abroad spraying money like clowns.

[color=royalblue]I was talking about migration, and one saying that posting videos on SM means we are the "loudest"

Do you really think that in a country of 1 billion, people are not making videos of how to game the migration laws of another country?[/color]

seankafor:
social media and posting is all about personal and individual differences, it doesn't have race specific

Go to travel section on tick tock and see people posting their travel exploits all over the place..

Human has been migrating since time immemorial and it's not going to stop anytime soon.

[color=royalblue]This case na say dem game the system.

Come carry 7 kids join...[/color]

BlueRayDick:
I’m not forming my opinion from not seeing Indians or Pakistani’s videos online , I’m actually forming my opinion from first hand information from people abroad whom I’ve discussed with .

I also form my opinion from Indians, Lebanese and other Asians in this country .

Nigerians are unusually too loud .

Most people who claim asylum abroad usually formulate lies like “ I am gay and my life is in danger in Nigeria due to anti LGBTQ laws in Nigeria”, “ My life is in danger due to ethnic cleansing/jihadists/terrorism in Nigeria “ , etc.

When such person successfully convince them abroad and gets the asylum , in my opinion it makes no sense for that person to be making videos about such stuff like u gamed the system and u want others to know about it. Who does that ?

[color=royalblue]We are saying the same thing.

The reason Nigerians are the loudest is because you are only hearing that of Nigerians.

How are we sure there are no videos circulating all around India and China about how to game the system?

We are 200 million, these guys are 1 billionm There's every possibility that they have people making such videos too, over there [/color]

BlueRayDick:
I still discussed this with somebody yesterday night.

Nigerians need to learn to know how to eat and not talk while eating . When u eat and talk , there are a whole lot of things that can happen to u. U can choke, the food might drop from ur mouth and even u can attract those that will take away the food from u.

No be only Nigerians Dey japa; Indians, Pakistanis and even Chinese Dey japa well well. Most of them Dey exploit some of these immigration systems in the west and they don’t make annoying videos about it like this one . I don’t know why we can’t resist the urge to put our business online.

I have a friend that is currently in the Ireland that is currently trying to see through the same asylum process . I really fear if this kind nonsense video/vlog will not affect his chances sef 🤦‍♂️

[color=royalblue]Is it really about being loud?

Are you sure the Indians and Chinese are not loud too?

Remember that your SM won't show you Chinese or Pakistani videos. The algorithms will only pick English related ones.

BlueRayDick:
The bold is untrue .

Dangote is simply fighting a trade war with the importers /depot owners and he’s using the pity method to win people like you to his side .

Read the link below and see the letter written by the depot owners association begging Tinubu not to concede to granting Dangote full monopoly on the Diesel market.

Dangote’s diesel is alleged to have sulphuric content above 700/ppm which is above what the agency recommends , yet he doesn’t want the marketers to source for diesel elsewhere aside his refinery .

https://www.arise.tv/petroleum-depot-owners-urge-tinubu-to-sustain-deregulation-prevent-dangote-refinery-monopoly/


I have attached screenshot of premium times news of match 2021 when major marketers had been opposing Dangote’s call for monopoly . U see say no be today! Dangote simply constructed the refinery hoping he will enjoy monopoly like he did in some of his previous businesses .






Abi did Dangote talk about FG’s 7.2% stake in 2021 too ?

From all indications, it appears Dangote assumed whoever took over from Buhari and Emefiele would sign off on granting him the monopoly he had been mouthing since way back, but alas he has been disappointed .U really need to snap out of that thought that anybody is witch hunting him for that 7.2% / 20% stake issue

[color=royalblue]Since his Diesel contains 700 kinikan than imported ones, why not sanction him or shut him down?

That should be common sense, yeah. The same diesel wey Dangote dey export to abroad, abi?

When Dangote started, i feared he would want a monopoly, but what that agency said is shameful.

The market is still open sef. How come nobody is selling cheaper even though they can import? Has anybody stopped anybody from importing?

Tomorrow, you can be a businessman and one man that got to DG through padipadi will just come out and condemn your business. There's nothing to support there.

If Dangote's product is inferior, shut it down. Is that not the work of the agency again?[/color]

BlueRayDick:
They said inferior product compared to imported ones . The agency is a regulatory agency .

Dangote has been clamouring for a monopoly and they have replied to him that they can’t give him monopoly because his product is inferior to those imported .

The onus is on him to come up with evidence that suggests his product is not inferior to those imported products ( if he still believes he deserves the monopoly )

See ehn, Dangote is just a businessman . He’s in it for the profit ; he’s not a Good Samaritan sent by God to Nigerians . He’s playing every card at his disposal to recoup every penny he splashed into the business ; but the FG agency has a duty to watch out for the common Nigerian man.

I don’t feel any pity whatsoever for Dangote . He should face the challenges of he business and sort it out.

[color=royalblue]Since they are a regulatory agency and Dangote's product is inferior, why don't they shut it down?

That's self sabotage, and it is quite shameful that a government agency would say such about a business.

Since when the man said NNPC has only 7.2% stake in the refinery, compared to the 20% lie that they have been reciting, i am not surprised to read this.

Dangote's product is inferior, and na him Diesel full everywhere. [/color]

GloriousGbola:
There has been an exodus of companies and workers from pH to lagos because of violence. Has Ph economy shrunk or grown over the past 10 years?

We settle community in lagos as well. Settle once and you are done. Is that the case in pH?

Work in the ND as a foreigner and you are constantly in a state of paranoia. A guy on our team who was enforcing standards was set up and almost burnt alive. You actually expect to be kidnapped as a rite of passage.

You heard the statement here - them no dey sack indigene. On this platform guys from pH have chided the rest of us for being sissies.



We were doing csr for a school. No male teacher in sight. But we passed a lot of guys sitting round drinking on our way to the school.

[color=royalblue]So how come that despite all what you listed, Rivers has the 2nd IGR in Nigeria?

Is it that the cultists and robbers pay tax when they steal?

You just choose to amplify that of Rivers, but these things happen everywhere.

Which one is "it is easier to machete and rob, than to do a 9 to 5"?

I and my team have been in Ogun state for close to 3 months now, and we have visited the King's palace twice, because of Omonile and Boys settlement wahala

So, i can come here and say all Ogun state men are lazy, and all they like to do is sell lands and collect money.[/color]

Theflint1:
The way that matter take die, I wan believe money enter the hands of those media companies take kill the matter. It was probably necessary sha, cause those bike men were most likely Northerners, and their victim fit be those agbero boys, stuffs like that escalating na wetin fit cause serious tribal conflict.

[color=royalblue]Na cult matter bros,

Didn't you see a policeman on one of the bikes?[/color]

liveLongNprospa:
Omo ND women dey hustle bro.
I don't know how it got that way but some of the men are lazy and leave responsibilities for the women

[color=royalblue]People hustle everywhere. Na the same thing over and over.

I have been to Rivers state couple of times, and nobody don carry machete come obtain me.
That's not a true picture of how their communities look.

Abi cultism no rampant for Lagos or Ogun state, or even Anambra?
[/color]

BlueRayDick:
Hmmmm…. U made some strong allegations up there o.

My hand no Dey o 🤷‍♂️

[color=royalblue]After Lagos, Rivers makes the highest IGR, but the men and women are lazy.

It is easier to machete and rob someone, than to do a 9 to 5.

Cultism thrives in Rivers, yet for the first time in a long time, we saw a dead man been ridden upon with bikes and people celebrating inside this Lagos.

If that was Rivers, only heaven knows how many extra pages we for get on that matter.[/color]

GloriousGbola:
i have an understanding of their mindset. anyone who has worked in ph has. 'it is our oyel ' . the men are lazy and the women are the hustlers. also why cultism is popular. easier to take machete and rob someone than do 9 to 5 taking shit from someone

imho, they are all part of it. you think governors are not getting their own cut from oil bunkering etal? when amaechi was governor there was a significant reduction in cult activities and violence in rivers. when wike entered, cult activties resumed, bunkering got to an all time high, and kpofire became so entrenched that there is permanent soot in the air in ph.

it is the same miltants who are pledging allegiance to fubara or wike right now. the governors are complicit in all this. same wike who was insulting chiefs cannot call them to tell them to tell their boys to behave?

[color=royalblue]Which kind stereotyping be this? [/color]

BlueRayDick:
Make una Abiru that was a bank MD until yesterday, see wetin he Dey support . 🤷‍♂️

So it is the bank that must use finance new minimum wage and Lagos-Calabar coastal road project from their profit ba?

When banks start moving mad and start transferring this to their corporate and individual customers now, we will be blaming banks .

It is forbidden for these useless lawmakers to take pay cut to contribute to naija development , instead it is the bank and its customers that must sacrifice . 🤦‍♂️

https://www.nairaland.com/8157178/senate-welcomes-tinubus-requests-adjust

[color=royalblue]Abiru chaired a failed and useless Prudent/Skye/Polaris bank naa.[/color]

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
Abeg eehh... POS say transaction declined... But bank debit me. The pos guy say money no enter him account. I don call bank people give dem my details. They say I should wait for 2weeks.

Shey the bank go return my money?
dis particular bank don chop my money too much especially during the old and new naira note saga. I no dey trust dem again.

[color=royalblue]Collect the printout from him (The declined printout)

There is a transaction ID on it. That is what will facilitate the payment.

I used to have a babe in NIBSS that helped me when i had such issues, but we don part ways.[/color]

You can’t be asking for VAR after your opponents have left the stadium with the winners medal.

Drake lost this one. He can try again later.

You mean Lord Postinor, Second of his Name?

And his (more powerful) vassals, Ser Mifepristone and Ser Misoprostol?

afrodoc2:
Very crazy. Even the young, industrious, and useful mentees i had at that time were not billing me Christmas money.

[color=royalblue]Which money were they billing, Master?

Money for Postinor the 2nd? [/color]

[color=royalblue]Exactly how Hitech Construction is frustrating people in Ogun state[/color]

GloriousGbola:
I really don't know what to say about Ibimes matter because the fact of the matter is things are very very hard right now for most people and getting worse. It's easy for us to say Ibimes benefactor should have been wiser but the fact is he may have seen his relative in a truly desperate situation and at the end of his rope with all possible sources of support and assistance tapped out.

At this point you are stuck between pragmatism and humanism. Be pragmatic and survive your issue while watching your relative die or be humanist and cut yourself off.

There may be no easy answers

[color=royalblue]Leave BlueRayDick make e dey do like Field Marshall.

The way he just immediately decided to cancel the relative is funny.

The fact that he is young sef is a good reason for me to caution him about abusing privileges[/color]

[color=royalblue]Omoh, BlueRayDick, if you be person uncle, the person suppose fear oh
[/color]

BlueRayDick:
Young as in under 18?

Abi young as in over 18?

Wetin person no know sef Dey kill person

[color=royalblue]He said "young relative who i have always taken care of"

So, definitely na young person.[/color]

BlueRayDick:
I didn’t say he should cut ties with him, I only said he should stop giving him money ni . 🤷‍♂️

He can be praying for him, giving him advice and giving him guidance on how to be a better person. But he should stop giving him money.

Let him go out there, hustle and let’s see if he will be sharing his own hard earned money like Ibime was doing for him. Let’s see if he will even give his money to the other relative he gave Ibime’s number to.

Let’s even forget about money/billing issue sef, it’s actually not right to be giving people’s contact out without their expressed permission.

Personally, I won’t give ur number out to anybody if I’m not sure u won’t to speak with that person(either as a friend or relative ).

[color=royalblue]He said " Young relative"

E no know. A few refusals and a stern warning will teach him.

Take am easy, bros[/color]

Godstime001:
Not that. If govt can support small maybe. For example one reason tractor renting skyrocketed is due to diesel price. Fertilizer also I think many are imported. As well as those agro chemicals.

[color=royalblue]I am not defending the government in any way.

I understand that there are many factors that are hurdles for farmers.[/color]

raumdeuter:
Those screaming hoarding are just chasing shadows

People hoard because its not enough. If its enough and you hoard, you will end up eating your hoarded items by yourself

What if the farmer said he planted 10 hectares of maize just to harvest and be looking at it or burn it? Its his right.

[color=royalblue]Good.

Then the farmer should not cry when the government opens the borders, kill local production, just to make food cheap.

He chose his strategy. If it favoured him, he would have made money. If it fails, he should take it as a man.[/color]

BlueRayDick:
I think what he’s saying is :

High Cost of renting tractor, High price of Urea and high price of agro chemicals affects the price of food eventually .

I think what he’s suggesting is that government needs to find a way to make some/all of the 3 items listed above cheaper so that food can be cheaper than it is.

[color=royalblue]The whole point was about hoarding

The guy was causing an artificial scarcity so he could make more profit. He was not losing.

If the government provides free tractor; infact dash each farmer one tractor with 10 years fertilizer free, yet the farmer hoards, what's the difference?

The guy hoarded his produce, which is his own business strategy, and he is entitled to it.

When it backfires, and he loses, i do not pity him either. It was a risk in the first place[/color]

Godstime001:
How are they hoarding food? Those farming are not just simply enough. No govt support for farmers. Do u know how much to book a day tractor here in Delta 250k just from 8- 6pm, how much is agro chemicals, fertilizer Urea 52k, among all other things needed.How will food products be cheap.

[color=royalblue]So in other words, food is not supposed to be cheap?

Shebi?[/color]

larride:
It's meant to be a 150 days import duty free on Agric produce. All those 70% tariff will be gone and those smuggling in through borders and having to pay custom officers bribe can import in legally.

They said its temporary and not permanent solution.

[color=royalblue]What is the solution here now?

Before ship go berth, e fit take 90 days.

Then before you go clear and begin distribute to sell nko?
[/color]

liveLongNprospa:
Lmaoop

[color=royalblue]He apologised

I have forgiven him.
[/color]

BlueRayDick:
😂

U seriously believe that twitter farmer and his tweet has any significant effect on food scarcity ?

[color=royalblue]I don't really care to know.

He was willing to hoard his maize, abi?

So why is he crying now that another policy will bring out his maize by force?[/color]

GloriousGbola:
If he is really unlucky they will find a way to impeach him. Or he should actually resign in solidarity with daddy.

I will not be part of this travesty of justice!

[color=royalblue]Naaah

No need to impeach him. Let him stay there and bleat.

Papa misappropriate 400 billion. Very shameful[/color]
