The most useless set of politicians in Nigeria at the moment.

Where is that mòron called Willie Obiano?
The person whose state is the most ravaged by insecurity and lawlessness is not even physically present. I wonder what could be more important.

They were busy pursuing political ambitions, leaving Nnamdi Kanu to take control of the region all the way from London. Busy pursuing phantom Igbo presidency

Why did IPOB/ESN not see these ones to arrest?

SimplyFacts:
Sahara Reporters & their mumu followers just like making mountains out of molehills. Funnily, even those who do not understand what he said (in Yoruba) would still cry all over this thread.

The future leaders are not yet born. Na mumus full ground for now.

Did he kidnap the guy? Technically speaking, yes.
But he didn't do it for ransom or money. He did it to basically show the party chairman who's boss. He said he was disrespected as LG chairman and wanted to teach the party guy a lesson.

He could have done that in a better way not to throw him in the boot of his car.

Ego is a big problem for the average Nigerian

It is time for Buhari to declare a state of emergency in Anambra State.
Stupid Obiano has lost control of the state.
This so called unknown gun men must know there is an authority on ground. We are not living in a banana republic.

This IPOB group will suffer their greatest demise yet.


I don't blame them, I blame the ineffectual buffoon called Obiano who cannot rope this people in once and for all.

He should learn from Wike

Oleksandr defence must be top notch, he looks so clean after the fight

A photo from the NYSC Security Awareness and Education Handbook is going viral on Twitter over the message included in the book.

Here is the message

"When travelling in high risk roads such as Abuja - Kaduna, Abuja - Lokoja-Okene or Aba - Port-Harcourt roads, then alert your family members, friends and colleagues in order to have someone on hand to pay off the ransom that could be demanded."


Apparently the country's road have been surrendered to kidnappers.

Seems most people commenting did not read to understand that he is giving the true reality on ground and giving an intellectual angle for this unusual scenario. For example, few days ago, a Nairalander bought eggs, plantain, carrots, vegetables etc yet he spent barely N1000 or less than N1000,
https://www.nairaland.com/6755350/see-foodstuffs-bought-950-naira
that same quantity of food in US cost way more than $1.50 so it means locally the purchasing power of the naira is still strong .

The man just raised an intellectual poser and it is the reality that require more research.

My guess is that the intervention by CBN in agriculture really helped and the pressure on the naira could be because of speculators, cryptocurrency and rationing of forex by CBN.

I appreciate Punch for dropping their bigotry and hatred against PMB and for being honest enough to report such a fresh perspective on the forex and naira value issue.

Did you also add the cost of gas he will use to cook the food.
Do you realise that portion of food can only serve some some adults for two meals in a day.
Now comparing with the USA, do you know $1.50 is chewing gum money in the USA. Even homeless people make more than that in the USA.

When you make comparisons with purchasing power, you should also consider earning power because money doesn't fall from sky. An average American will make $1.50 in less than 10 minutes meanwhile it takes Nigerians 24 hours or more to earn that same amount. So don't bring bullshit comparisons here

A summary of Nigeria's FX crisis from a brilliant mind. People like this should be making decisions on our behalf

This images are just too sad to see. This terrorists had time to stalk and take photographs of our soldiers before they pounced on them like Tigers. Making it look like an action film. Looks like they were attacked from all flanks too

Most likely zero intelligence about the area before this troop went on this mission and a lack of situational awareness

Meanwhile Stupid Aso Rock politicians are only concerned about telling Media lies and propaganda

May their souls Rest In Peace

Honestly there's no point for this letter. Allow the dumb people carry out their plans. By the time they realise their wastage, it would be too funny to watch

Maybe the Nigerian Navy has acquired technology to sail ship on sand or maybe they will deploy camels in this base as they are called as "ship of the desert"

Seriously, the only reason why they are building a naval base in Kano is simply because Chief of Naval Staff is from Kano. That is the only "innovation" the service chiefs in Nigeria can think of. The past ones did it so not surprised.

Dumb folks

The Jadon Sancho of APC

The latest new boy to help their attack in the forthcoming season.

We are still waiting for APC to sign their own Cristiano Ronaldo

Gov. Masari, I understand how pained you are over this VAT issue but please stop this capping.

toxtimmy:
Raw cash = curruption

It depends on the situation though.

These soldiers are giving their all for a country that doesn't give a fūck about them. Something like this to encourage them is welcomed.

Also, I don't think this is bribe, because he is not compelling them to do anything illegal or immoral here

Good one from the Governor. Nothing boosts morale like raw cash

No be 2013 Camry I dey see so?

Na him be Taxi?

DubaiLandLord1:
I agree with the CBN Governor on this.

You can't just sit down in the UK, speculating about the naira, telling us you're getting data from abokis on the street.

The CBN should treat BDC operators still buying and selling dollars like a terrorist group. Only banks should be in charge of buying and selling of dollars and must be fully monitored by the CBN.

You obviously have zero economic knowledge

Do You think Macho man approach can solve economic problems

My question is where are the state governors of these citizens. How can you watch your indigenes be treated like animals and not speak up on their behalf.

That is the reason why I will continue to hold the idea that from Buhari to the Osinbajo, Lawan to Gbajabiamila, and the 36 State governors and their State Speakers. All Nigerian politicians are the most useless, evil set of people in the entire planet.

Their judgement will be worse than Sodom and Gomorrah

Transfer window opened

Nukilia:
CBN is now waking up to the monsters who have destroyed our economy with their false narratives!

GRTBR

Reporting the actual rates of exchange is what you call destroying the economy with false narratives?

May people like never see anything good out of this country. Your blinded sycophancy will not destroy the good works patriotic citizens in the country

lalajnr:
biased way to name a government that belongs to many tribes

Yes. He was once the leader of those many tribes

Nwatachoba1:
That's the father of the legendary musician..osita stephen osadebe...how come he claims he is from atani in Anambra state? Is it that the father was a great businessman in edom or what?

Nope they are different

Osadebe House.

Named after the late Great Chief Dennis Osadebe

That word "Nexus" don suffer for Nigerian academia hand.

Sorry for your loss. Let me go and drop a very bad review to warn others

The app is really a well planned fraud scheme
The people dropping positive comments on the app page have fake names.

ivolt:
You should always ask questions before descending into emotional rants.
Ask them what they did 12 years ago to make them lose access to electricity.
Actions have consequences.

The only action they took is to vote and keep on voting incompetent people into public offices.

Serves them right

phenomental40:
I support this 70 years old man

Pierocash:
Things aren't actually expensive in Nigeria compared to other advanced countries. It is the purchasing power that differs.


There are people in Nigeria who earn over $10k dollars a month. If such people travel out of Nigeria to the USA,he will come back to tell you that cost of living in Nigeria is way too cheaper compared to the US.


I will rather earn $1k a month in Nigeria,than to earn $3k-$5k in America

Purchasing Power Parity only works when you buy locally produced items. Example. Rice, tomatoes, oil, egusi, Vegetables, beef etc.

When you start buying imported stuff like TV, Mobile phones, Petrol, Machinery equipments, clothes etc. That is when you'll realise your $1k is dust. Also compare how easy it is to get a job that pays $1k in US than in Nigeria.

Professors in Nigerian Universities do not even earn up to 1k per month

solaiphones:
it is fake

How can original be identified

I'm guessing this one too is fake
