I can only see ronu bigots. A road in still under rehabilitation and this is obvious the first layer of tar poured. If you are familiar with the workings of this machine you would know that it pours asphalt in layers. Some ronu bigots obviously took pictures of the first layer and rushed online to disgrace themselves

So there's another thing u pour on roads after this?
I have seen roads constructed like this and in 5 months it went as it was.

The greed inherent in Nigeriàñs will sky rocket the price of goods and services with that amount and 95% of states still won't pay it.
In other words, most Nigeriàñs will pay for wages that they are not earning.
Till date not all states have implemented the current minimum wage.

You answered the first question and try to divert from the rest.

The essence of the second question is to show that factories make more profit than retailers. This emphasis is even attached to the question. No sincere and sane person will read that question and conclude it implies that retailers employ workers.

You craftily try to use the North to answer the 3rd question. Cost of living in this period of inflation is cheaper in the North. Your use of the North here is like someone using the retail price of sachet water within sachet water factories to deny the fact that sachet water is sold ₦50 outside the factories. So, you are yet to present facts against my comment.

I answered all your questions directly unless u are not sincere.
I used the north to butress the point that u fóIks are ripping urseIves, factory price in the north is #200 in the south it's #300.
Retailer price in the north is #250-#300 in the south it's hitting #1000, why?
If not greedîñess.
Dudu Osun soap if I'm not mistaken is manufactured down south, why is it cheaper in the north compared to south?
U made reference to #2000 profit per bag, anybody selling pure as a retailer sells 5 bags of pure water per day at the very least.
This is where break even analysis comes in.
U all rip urselves with every single thing in the market and come to defend it that the next person is doing it because this one is expensive, all because u don't like the government.
I answered all ur questions directly, maybe u think u are deaIing with a duIIard that's crude in business.
No!!!
You are not, I have been doing business since 2009, in 2009 I broke free from my family business and my mother was angry that I did, but today she's happy that I did.
In my line of manufacturing, I see people who spent #1,200 in producing a unit but will sell it for #3,500.
If it's not greed, why would u do that?
People like u will defend them whole heartedly because u don't like Tinubu.

tctrills:
Buhari invested hundreds of billion in Agriculture under the anchor borrowers program.

Buhari didn't invest, when u invest money, u monitor ur investment, giving money out to people to embezzIe is not investment.
They rolled out billions that was èmbezzlèd by different caricature agriculture companies, cooperative societies, BOA staffs and the masses, that's not investment.
Investments is when u support farmers in the field by engaging them directly, seeing what they are doing and demanding accountability from them.
Sending billions to Minister of agric, through CBN etc and they form chains of Iooters that will cover their tracks and u inturn didn't put capable hands on deck is not investment.

Brendaniel:
You don't even get the what he was trying to say, is there supposed to be constant power interruption at all in the first place?

His argument is that Tinubu did not improve power supply in Nigeria and it only got worse under him, this is not about suburb, urban or village...

Power supply has not gotten any wórsè, all the places I stay, power supply has been normal or better, it ñevèr got wórsè.
Rural power supply got better, why do u foIks love telling petty Iies so much, someone is bold enough to say no light for 4 days, whereas he's using same light to charge his phone and system.

A few questions for you.

1.
Do retailers sell in bulk like factories?

2.
Can the retailers, even with ₦2,000 profit per bag, pay each worker ₦15,000 or ₦20,000 monthly salary like factories do? Answer this very question to understand who makes more profit between the factories and the retailers.

3.
I mentioned that ₦1,000 now may not afford what ₦300 could afford in the past. I expect you to deny it and explain how the amount the retailers got as profit in the past can sustain the retailers now.

1. Retailers don't sell in bulk as manufacturers, that's why they are called retailers or you don't know what a retailer does?
2. So a retailer selling satchet water employs people now?
Great logic, let's go by your logic.
You make a profit of 2,000 off a bag and u sell 5 bags a day, u have made 10,000 profit in one day, in 6 days, you have made 60,000.
In 12 days u have made 120,000, in 24 days u have made a profit of #240,000.
So if a retailer that employs people sells 5 bags a day and make a profit of 2,000 per bag, his employees too will sell 5 bags and make a profit of 2,000 per bag.
So yes!!! He can #25,000 to his employees since he makes a profit of #2,000 per bag.
Manufacturers do what we call break even analysis, since iIiitracy dominates the retailing section that's when u see people who dón't do break analysis and they have folks like u who are out to defend because u don't like the president.
3. In the past, factories sold a bag of water for less than #300 and today, it's #300.
In the north, companies sell bag of water for #200 and retailers sell it for #250 to #300.
So a retailer selling a bag he/she bought at #300 for #700 or #1000 is a crîmînaI act.
In the past, dudu Osun, Eva soap etc all sold for about #300-#400, they are all about #500-#700 today, this defies ur logic that what #300 could in the past, #1000 can't get it now.
A small paint rubber of fresh tomatoes (4 ltrs) was #400 in the past, today it sells for #500, sometimes #700.
Back and forth.
Same as toothpastes etc etc.
Whatever #300 could get u in the past sells for way less than #1000 unIess u are being ripped and u are defending it like u are doing now.

EbinPawaGovt:
All these upon 30k zombee work?

I thought u all said 30k can't sustain anybody in this economy, u are still dwelling on that?

Didijiji:
thank God you know the areas. The idea is not spelling

Don’t be unfortunate

U can't spell those areas but u think know them?
There's light in Abuja, pinpoint ur complaints to ur locality and stop generalizing.

ivandragon:
Why are you concerned about that?

After all you are comfortable in your cesspit of corruption and cluelessness because you get crumbs that make you defend incompetence.

As usual, make a vague assumption due to ur sèntiments.

Brendaniel:
So the location a person lives in Nigeria should determine the amount of power supply the person should get?

I don't work in any DisCo, direct ur question to the GenCos and DisCos.
You can't live in a suburb and say there's no light in Abuja for 4 days, even if u love in the city of Abuja, u still cañ't make a generalized statement.

Goodnewsforlife:
that’s a typical igbo for u

They want people to inflate prices n at d same time want to blame government for inflation

This successmatters in particular, there was a thread where people were moving truck of food to Niger republic, the hypocrite was happy n d same dingbat went to another thread to comment about inflation


They set d house on fire n want to blame d government cos d house is on fire

They think bIaming makes their Iife better, last last, na them d feel am.

ivandragon:
Just as you are bent on diverting attention from the failings of the present government at the centre and letting the rot fester.

U will keep çryîñg while ur immediate society keeps faiIing.

Lienus didn't provide clean water but he's a messiah today.

successmatters:
Please allow the stupid people to fool themselves here. None of them lazy people can sell anything, just to stay and call out people doing their best to survive.

You will still go on another thread to compIain about cost of living.

GanagiBitrus:
Another factor though is that ₦10 and ₦20 are almost worthless so items are now sold in multiples of ₦50.

It's situations like this that led to that

immortalcrown:
Put yourself in people's shoes before you judge them. I am not a trader. But I can defend traders in this case.

Try to understand how economy works. ₦100 or ₦200 profit per bag of sachet water was okay for the retailers of sachet water in the past. How much was a cup of Rice then and what was the cost of transportation then?

But now, what can ₦200 or ₦300 per bag do for those retailers? How much is a cup of Rice now? Currently, ₦1,000 may not afford what ₦300 could afford in the past. So, tell me how the traders will cope now if they don't increase their profits.

Are you also aware that in many cities or marketplaces, those pure water sellers likewise barrow pushers pay taxes daily and the amount they pay has been increased by the authorities that collect the taxes?

This kind of analyses is the reason why prices of everything went of and everyone is hanging for survîvaI, you all want to rip each other apart and it keeps going in circles.
The factories selling for #300 don't buy rice or they don't pay taxes?
Why didn't the factories take it to #1000 because of ur analysis?

Oh!!!

ivandragon:
Is this what they told you to respond with in your sycophant class?

Tell them that;

1. They gave you out of point answers to what you quoted me on, primarily on fuel subsidy removal and insecurity.

2. Ask them that if it is governors they were so focused on, why advocate for change at the centre in 2015.

3. Ask them why states cannot control their own natural resources.

Let them know that thier lame attempts at diversions and irrational aversion to criticism is making you come across as a confused person.

Simply say u are bent on criticisms rather than "those of us who want the country to work" fuel subsidy is not stopping the country from working.

Didijiji:
call anyone in Duse along bwarai or kuba area if they have seen light

You can't even spell the places properly and you want me to follow your permutations?

Brendaniel:
Are you trying to say that people who live in a suburb are not human enough to enjoy electricity uninterrupted?

If u live in a suburb, you no right to generalize, specify ur location, it's that simple.

Zssk0003:
Remind me again why Lagos was made capital?

Read my previous comment.
You will find part of it there.

Who mobilized the children?
Children can't possibly mobilize themselves, we play too much politics in this country.

Paraman:
Hope the owners have a good plan for the factory sha so it won't end up like Dangote tomato factory. The government should give them company to import tomato from Europe.

What the government should do is invest in agriculture, dry season and rainy season agriculture, it will help the country more.

ivandragon:
There is no goal post to be shifted at my end. You are the one grasping at straws and asking what governors have done since 1999. Why not go back to the 70s too since you now want to blame dispensations for the ineptitude of your pay masters of today.

Didn't apc come with a mantra of change? What have they changed?

Now you want to blame governors for removing fuel subsidy and floating the naira.

You can continue to hide your head in the sand and enjoy your crumbs, those of us who want a better country will continue to ensure the government at the centre is kept on its toes despite the opposition from clowns and sycophants.

LOL.
We practice a system of government that has been in place since 1999.
"Those of us who want a better country" is a line used by pàînèd àsses who don't even know what a better country is.
Let me give u a brief.
A better country has:
1. Clean water supply for it's citizens (this is solely the duty of your governor and LGA chairperson)
2. Good sanitation network that involves proper collection of refuse and street cleaning, good public toilets (still, ur governor).
3. Good educational system (partly FG and partly ur governor, primary and secondary rest majorly on ur governors to some extent, universities too)
4. Good health systems (your state is to provide General Hospitals, primary health cares, pharmacies etc etc)
5. Good and reliable public transport system ( u see what Fashola, Ambode and Sanwo-Olu are doing in Lagos?)
6. Employment opportunities (done by FG and still ur governor).
7. Industrialization, encouraging the growth of local industries and attracting investors etc etc (responsibility of FG and your governor who has a bigger part to play to make sure industries come to their states).
8. Parks, cemeteries, street lighting, naming and numbering streets properly are works that ur state and LG should do.
If all that I listed are not on ur list of better country, then u are Ióst, if they are on ur list and u are still facing FG, u simpIy dón't know what u want.

Ykc2:
you jumped to abusive words I gave it to you bumper to bumper now your no more a yoruba person so your abusing igbos on yoruba behalf? Well you don't worth my time and energy

the thread is not about lgb0s and Yorubas, we were making a general statement, lgb0s have been insultîñg others for years and now anyone who didn't say anything pleasant about u is a Yoruba or doing it on behalf of Yoruba?
Just like anyone who did that from 2015-2022 is Hausa-Fulani?

stop loling to prove you are a mumu abeg

Call and ask

I have a house in Abuja and there's light in the house although I'm not around Abuja presently.
No power outage for 4 days.
So I don't know where u live in Abuja to generate such claims.

Hope tribe and religion is putting food on your table today.

I don't do religion my tribe has always put food on my table.
In my tribe, once u have a challenge, u run to ur fellow tribesman and they will turn up for.
Few days ago it was a fellow tribesman who has a critical crash in his vehicle that affected his skull and needed immediate surgery, we were there for the successful surgery as tribesmen, so my tribe puts food on my table.
Hope u are satisfied now?
