CelebritiesRe: Actor Odunlade Adekola Drunk On Fame And Losing His Credibility? by jaybim: 7:55pm On Feb 17, 2017
Some things are inconsistent here.. U say he failed to show up on set, and also failed to show up at the premiere of the same movie...so how did they shoot his part? And if they went ahead with the production without him then he is under no obligation to promote said movie.
You have also failed to establish if proper contractual terms were stated and signed and was it stated explicitly that he must promote the movie on or offline. If it wasn't, then he is at liberty to promote or do otherwise.
For the mnet job, do u have the contract details? Do you know if Mnet breached their part of the deal?
What is your source? How credible is it? If you are writing from first hand experience then how do we verify your identity? How do we know you are not just someone with itchy fingers looking for a story to tell or someone who's been paid to go on a smear campaign of the actor.

Until these are satisfied... Don't judge.

Hi Glory2God
Do rabbits eat this? Don't know what it's called but it grows in the canal behind my compound. I intend to supplement this with pellets.

Also, can I get 1 family of mature new Zealand whites. I'm looking to keeping for breeding primarily and then meat production later.

Finally, do you sell their feed and how much?

Thanks in anticipation

PhonesRe: Glo Leads In New Internet Subscription by jaybim: 10:00am On Dec 23, 2016
Ported my 0806 to glo as soon as I had the chance, mainly for calls.
Call rate's good... I don't check my balance anymore
Airtel was my data line while my accumulated GBam came in handy when my Airtel data is exhausted... It was torture trying to browse with glo...
However, when I relocated to a new area, glo was blazing fast. They now increased data allowance, now glo is both data and call network for me. And unlike Airtel it doesn't zap data at twice the rate. I do hours of mobdro daily, streaming seamlessly without buffering. I tried it with my Airtel and my data ran out in a few hours.

I think it's a matter of location, thankfully it's great at 80% of the places i frequent (work, home, regular hangouts)
Pick what works for you but if you are a heavy consumer like me you really need to find out if it's good in your area because glo is unrivalled in data allowance and consumption.

PoliticsRe: FG Is Right On Fuel Subsidy Removal by jaybim: 5:52pm On May 13, 2016
LadyEx... the reserves were used to maintain the supply of fx in circulation following the shortfall occasioned by the drop in oil prices. with the drop in oil prices, the nigerian economy would have experienced a shortage of FX since oil is our only major export and FX earner.ECO 101 the lower the supply, the higher the demand and by extension, the higher the price (What obtains today).

However, where the government of GEJ got it wrong was its failure to address our refineries and infrastructure deficit in the boom days and save. NOI said it, there was no political will to save. instead they spent more on recurrent expenditure and at a point borrowed to pay salaries. WHO DOES THAT?? do you understand it now?

so right now prices have remained low viz FX earnings, and the infrastructure deficit remains. how do you address that? cut down your recurrent expenditure such as subsidy. they still need to cut down on government spending though, but that's a story for another day.


that's where the FR went, so you know. and let's keep our conversations civil here. all the insults should be directed to those in charge of our common wealth...we can't all share the same views.

LadyExcellency:
Do you know what we call reserve, the importance and value? It is only a foolish Father that dies of hunger to keep inheritance for the living.

Any Economy undergoing transformation uses its reserves. There was more than 18 months of low crude price under Jonathan hence your assertion is incorrect.
An economy undergoing transformation does not use its reserves. That's why it is called a reserve. During the oil boom, Gowon "built" lagos, developed infrastructure across the country and he saved. That's what GEJ should have done but he did the opposite. GEJ like Shagari may not have been corrupt, but he did nothing about the corruption around him, just like Shagari.

he should have fixed the refineries, he should have aggressively developed infrastructure and he should have saved. Because he did not in the days of plenty think of the coming days of lack, he went into the reserves obj left. Suppose OBJ didn't leave anything in the reserves GEJ would have been placed in PMB's exact predicament.
PoliticsRe: FG Is Right On Fuel Subsidy Removal by jaybim:
Petrol Scarcity. There have been acute fuel scarcity and dreadfully long queues at petrol stations since the weeks leading up to the take off of this administration and thereafter. This has plunged Nigerians into further hardship and suffering in the form of long queues, hikes in cost of goods and transportation fares, not forgetting the anguish of the small business that needs petrol to run its “I beta pass my neighbour” or the home that needs fuel in the gen so the baby can sleep soundly with caresses from the cool breeze issuing from the fan in these terribly hot and NEPAless times. This climaxed a few days ago with the hike in fuel price. This hike has however elicited mixed reactions from the generality of Nigerians with an almost equal “Aye” and “Nay” divides.

Let’s break it down. Generally, Nigerians saw/see fuel subsidy as the only benefit we enjoy from the oil we produce and rightly so; social structures are rotten and most Nigerians are their own government, so why not enjoy the only subsidized commodity in the country. However, we know how the subsidy regime has been fraught with “fantastic corruption” hence the need for it to be reviewed. Secondly, there is a need to fully deregulate the downstream sector to allow for open market operations ESPECIALLY as the NNPC alone cannot meet the demand for the product. NOTE that it is the landing cost of petrol that is subsidized, after landing it is each marketer for himself. It does not make practical business sense to have an independent marketer in Maiduguri to sell at the same price with the man in Lagos or Ilorin considering all the variables applied. So outside Lagos and other major cities, petrol has actually been selling above the regulated pump price. In view of this regulated environment, operators who were granted licences to build refineries refrained from doing so, and with good reason, obviously.

In 2012, an attempt was made to stop subsidies and deregulate, naturally we revolted because we simply did not trust the government to stick to its end of the bargain. We were vindicated by the scam called SURE-P. I wrote a piece at that time stating that a genuine revamping of the refineries and its supporting structures was the answer. By now that would have satisfied more than 70% of local demand and reduced subsidy payments by the same figure, given that imports will only be used to make up for the shortfall. We all know that hasn’t happened just as we can hazard a fair guess as to why it hasn’t happened.

So what has changed now? For one, the government. Also, the realization that resources have dwindled to a mere trickle and as such the government cannot continue with subsidy payments which in reality benefit only a few; the marketers. Deregulation should also encourage those with licenses to dust them up and start building those refineries whether modular or full sized. So am I in support of deregulation this time? Absolutely. Do I think this is the right time? Better now than later. However, I disagree with two fundamental points here. One is the decision to put a price ceiling on the commodity because I do not see how that can operate in a deregulated environment but I am willing to give the government the benefit of the doubt by accepting its explanation that it fixed to protect the consumer from exploitation. My second and more fundamental problem is the fact that marketers have been asked to source FX from alternative sources. Considering the current FX situation in the country, that is akin to throwing us under the bridge to be carried by the on-rushing tide

What must be done? The president needs to be a little more flexible. This isn’t 1983, East or West Germany no longer exist, just as the prevailing climes have changed. I acknowledge that Nigerians need an iron fist and a few punches to set us in line else we are prepared to run amok into all that is sweet on the surface. Concessions have to be made here and there. For example, I would have expected that petrol importers should be given priority in FX allocation so as to cushion the effect of the deregulation and also reduce the demand for FX from alternative sources which would by extension prevent further increase in the exchange rate. Similar incentives must be extended to local businesses, especially those in other sectors of the economy- manufacturing, agriculture etc. Give tax holidays, strengthen infrastructure, CBN facilitate single digit loans and so on. These will go a long way to enhance local production and allow for healthy competition with foreign alternatives. This will in turn strengthen the Naira, make the domestic economy more healthy and robust, reduce unemployment and in turn insecurity and social strife. Security agencies must also live up to their mandates to protect lives and property and the sovereignty of the country from all enemies whether foreign or domestic. We really can’t have people killing and destroying private and common property with impunity.

The refineries must be made to function. The unbundling of the NNPC is a welcome step however it must be allowed to run effectively and efficiently as a business entity. Allowing the refineries run like every other business devoid of government bureaucracy can only result in healthy competition and improved efficiency. The “PIB” should be accelerated and passed so that private organizations encouraged to enter the field and are given more liberty to operate. Government should only play a supervisory role, ensuring standards and industry best practices are observed. Monitor the activities of the companies and protect the interest of the host communities and the nation as a whole.

Finally, we MUST truly diversify this economy. Nigeria is blessed with a plethora of natural resources as well as ingenious people who will make lemonade when given lemons and can sell fire to hell or water to a well. I grew up in Ajaokuta, there is a steel factory there which has been moribund since we first moved there when I was 6, over 20 years ago. Itakpe Iron Ore Mining Company is there. We have arable land everywhere; know the story of the Malaysian palm, so shamelessly told by successive ministers of agriculture. We have coal in Enugu, vast natural gas reserves. Any one of these is a proven export commodity and mainstay of various economies around the world. Excellent weather and have been spared natural disasters. No earthquakes, hurricanes, tropical cyclones or tsunamis, yet we have contrived to make of ourselves Human Disasters.

This brings me to the citizens. The responsibility of nation building does not start and stop at Aso Rock. We also have a very important role to play. Our orientation and thinking has to change. In the outside world, when asked where one is from, we don’t say “Yoruba” or “Igbo” and such. We say Nigeria. We must therefore stop the inane ethno-religious politicking. Wishing the president failure because he is not from your part of the country is like cutting your nose to make your face flat, it is highly unintelligent thinking. We must play our parts in our little ways in our different constituencies. It is not the governor or president who fills drainages with PET bottles of soft drinks or pure water “leda” neither is he the one blowing up pipelines that supply gas to our power plants. We do these things and when the repercussions grab us by the nether regions we call government.

In 2011, I was a Neighbour to Neighbour Volunteer for GEJ’s presidential aspiration against same PMB. GEJ failed woefully. I am not a fan of PMB, given better options I would have voted differently. I just knew I/we couldn’t let the GEJ administration continue. If only for the Chibok Girls and the Immigration 19, I chose between two evils. I still do not have any regrets that I voted change. I voted, not for APC’s brand of change but the brand that says I will not celebrate mediocrity. I/we voted to make a statement; “a government that does not live up to a minimum standard will be Changed”. That, my friends, is what I voted for and I am glad I got it. Most importantly, we are the change we seek.

So far, the actions and pace of this government have been less than impressive but I recognize the enormity of the task on ground. Even though we have not had “light” for close to a week and my laptop battery is now at 13%, I’m prepared to give them more time. And if they fail, I shall be waiting with my own broom to sweep them out in 2019.

By the way, did anyone notice how the queues in Lagos disappeared overnight. It piques one’s curiosity. Now we know what sabotage truly means.
