Business / Re: How Government Policies Is Killing My Business by jesmond3945: 4:07pm On Oct 25, 2023
richmond500:
The essence of these policies is to kill importation business and make Nigeria a production country.
Your business is not the only business that is dying, many business that depends on dollar has closed down and more will close too.

Time is coming when Naira will hit 5000 to a dollar. When this happens, foreign products will be difficult to purchase and we will have no choice but to buy made in Nigeria goods cos even a pair of foreign pants will be so expensive that only politicians can afford it while the rest of us will wear plantain leaves.

It's so annoying that the average secondary school student knows the dollar to naira exchange rate, that shows how we depend so much on the dollar and killing our own naira.
Until we patronize our own companies, we can't grow the economy, this painful stage is called the transition stage from foreign to local, the govt is not the problem but the time it takes Nigerians to accept the Nigerian goods will determine how long the pain will last.

In the next five years, we will fully accept our own economy and in the next ten years, we will have an economy that will beat France and Germany cos we have the market already.
without cheap energy? Is not even that the energy is not in our soil.

NLNG is not selling in Naira so there is a difference.

As regards Dangote, check the link below.
https://www.thecable.ng/pib-nigerian-refiners-to-buy-crude-oil-in-naira/amp
so fine. How feasible, do you think this can work?
Many companies extracting crude spend dollars to do so. How would they now go around and sell in naira thereby incurring loses?
Lets watch and see. Remember dangote borrowed in dollars to build and will now need dollars to pay off his debt.

We don’t have the forex to defend the Naira quite alright but Nigerians are not helping matters. We have a dollar shortage crisis and Nigerians are busy stockpiling dollars at any amount simply for speculative reasons. What is going on is really scary.

We may hit 2k for a dollar before the end of the year with the way things are going. CBN needs to go back to the crude method adopted by Emefiele. Whatever it is they are doing with the PH and Dangote refineries, they should please hurry it up and start production. There will be a huge rally for the Naira once we stop importation of petroleum products. These are the short term measures to stop the free fall. Manufacturing what we need in Nigeria and for export is a long term solution.
will dangote buy crude with naira or dollar?

Foreign Affairs / Re: Israel Bombs Gaza Oldest Church (picture &video) by jesmond3945: 7:38pm On Oct 20, 2023
guy please continue. i love your analysis. What do you say about how the british joined us to the north? Why do you think the west aligned with israel and not the arabs?
StOla:
Christian or Muslim, they mean the same to the Jews.

If Jews can lay their hands on Jesus Christ, they will crucify him again and ask that a Jewish terrorist be released in his place.

I repeat that it is the British that caused all this problem by allowing Jewish refugees from Europe to come settle in Palestine among the majority Arab.

Till 1919, the region known as Palestine had 90% non-Jewish population, and this was despite that 2 migration waves of Jews had already arrived since the late 19th century, in what is known as the 1st and 2nd Aliyah.

That the world regard Arabs as terrorists today, is all down to the illegal occupation of Palestine by Jews who had no business setting up a new country there in 1948. Israel is largely responsible for the instability of the Middle-East region by its mere illegal existence on Palestinian land.

Otherwise, the Arabs with their Islam would just be the way the UAE/Qatar/Saudi-Arabia are with their societies that are religious, but peaceful and prosperous.

Many Christians in Nigeria are looking for means to go make that Arab money in the Middle-East, working as Oilfield Workers and Experts, IT Experts, Medical Experts, and unskilled labour.

The Christian Europe is enjoying lots of investments from the Arab world as much as it also receives refugees from the Arab world.

All the anti-Arab and anti-Muslim hatred has largely been orchestrated by Jewish propaganda that carefully identified the Arab as the new fall guys for global hatred - a role the Jews had previously occupied with genocidal consequences for the tribe as seen with the holocaust and all the discrimination they had suffered in the hands of Christian Europe over the ages.

The mindset of this terrorist organisation is crazy.
Hamas keeps using civilians as shield,while they fire rockets from their shield..
Israel knows that if they don't wipe out Hamas,Hamas will wipe them out..
It's about the survival of the state of Israel,not appeasing the psychotic mindset of terrorist...
They will soon learn that Israel is not the US,they don't pamper terrorist or terrorist sympathizers...
Nothing you say online will affect how Israel sees this war.hate them or love them,na your wahala be that…. I also think that this is the best time for hamas to force a ceasefire from Israel.But then the question is,If the UN demands a ceasefire from Israel,who will call hamas to ceasefire,thereby halting the rocked launching from hamas.because if hamas doesn’t stop throwing rockets at Israel,Israel will not stop…
if christians dont see anything wrong with this bloodshed then it is safe to say we are deceiving ourselves.

Family / Re: My Wife Calls Her Family For Everything by jesmond3945: 5:47pm On Oct 17, 2023
marvellous2222:
My wife calls her family for everything, once I'm broke she calls her mother to send her food items, I have begged her to stop, I have gotten angry yet she said she can't be hungry in a man's house when there's excess in her parents house, my wife can't manage 3k to cook for me, a family with just 2 kids, she'll call her elder brothers and tell them I gave her 3k to cook immediately they will send money for her.

Can't a woman water down her taste to keep her marriage? They don't insult me but I feel not man enough, I feel less of myself, my wife is from a rich home and the house we are living is a wedding gift from her brothers, she's an only daughter and they over pamper her, they don't allow her ask twice.

I remember I bought a car for her when she delivered our first child my brother in-law knew about it before the car arrived cause I ordered through his company, he changed the car to something twice the one I could afford without my knowledge, when they brought a car to the house I said this isn't what I ordered my brother in-law said their Ada can't be seen driving such after marriage.

They are planning to open a business for her and they didn't involve me in the plan, my marriage is not what I wanted cause I feel like I'm not man enough.

My wife doesn't appreciate gifts from me like when it's from her family, I got her a 75k watch she said thank you and for months she didn't use it, I had to remind her that there's a watch I gave her, but when one of her brother sent her a watch worth 260k she danced and used it always.

How do I handle this?

you didnt date your wife?

Back2Daura:
[Good day all,

I remember posting sometime in 2019 about having a thirdclass and PGD and later got a 4.0 in msc and needed advice to do a Ph.D inorder to get into lecturing. I was advised by alot to go ahead for my Ph.D.

I got a thirdclass because of my previous University where I was on a 4.6cgpa before I and alot others were told by the new VC back then that we were not students, that happened in my final year because I came through the Vice chancellor's list and there was no jamb admission letter. It really affected my performance in my first and second year back in unilag and landed me in a thirdclass.

But today I am pleased to inform you all, that I just graduated with a 4.45 cgpa in my PhD in June 2023 with a federal University in Nigeria. And before graduation I got a lecturing job with my masters as a graduate assistant with a private university, after impressing my interviewers.

Today I lecture entrepreneurship in that University and I have been contacted to join those who will be developing the current CCMAS curriculum for entrepreneurship studies as a GST for all universities in Nigeria.

I have been able to present research papers in most universities like UNN and Alex Ekwueme Federal University Ebonyi etc.
I am hoping to apply to other Federal schools whom I have informed of my qualifications and teaching experience and they are interested in working with me.
To all those who made third class due to uncertainties don't be discouraged keep the eye on the ball and be focused.

I am also open to discussion, partnership, counselling and work opportunities. Kindly Contact me on krisdboss83@gmail.com.

Boost local production by fixing power. That is the major thing. Boost local production. There cannot be any production if power isn't fixed

2. Bureau De change cannot be banned. It is a source of livelihood for some. In essence black markets cannot be totally banned as there are black markets around the world. Banning them will make things worst as people will go there to get their dollar..

I think any international payments coming into Nigeria should be paid in dollar. Domiciliary accounts should be easier to open.
Western Union,MoneyGram and the likes should pay out too in foreign currencies. You should choose the option of either being paid in Naira or Dollar, If we can get over the counter, the rate will fall. The scarcity is what is making it hard and getting more expensive.

But first of all. We should increase our productivity. We should start exporting. We are not exporting at all. When we do our currency will have a little bit more value. But before we can do that,we should fix Power. That is what Obi was telling una,yet we use ethnic and tribal sentiments take do am

what do you want us to export?

The only way we can save the naira is simple...we need to earn more dollars.

For years, I have been saying we do not have a diversifed enough economy. I said it under PDP, their geng called me Buhari supporter. I said it under APC, they called me Obi and Atkulator, and IPOB...

But dollar is now over N1000 because...quite simply.....we are not earning enough dollars.

In 2015, we should have totally removed subsides on power and petrol then...and saved money. We should have began diversifying yesterday...meaning we have to do things like regulate the mines, and fight leakages in the crude oil sector. We should have fought corruption

But no, we paid for more subsides, continued the looting, and paid for more jamboree projects.

Just as we have been doing for donkey years...even under PDP. (The debt relief and the oil boom hid the cracks).


Nigeria is not a rich country. Rich countries with stronk currencies export...manufacuted goods and services. Which they can set a price for, which means they can earn lotsa dollars. Nigeria is a poor brokeass country, with bad leaders since independence, and bad followers who want coca cola made in the USA to be sold here at one kobo per liter, regardless of the cost of producting and importing the thing.

And the current government is continuing the same old show. Subsides are back, high level of politrickal appointees, the same old show.


Nigeria will never progress until we stop thinking we can all own Ferraris at the cost of N20000 a car.
no is not. We are earning dollars but the demand for it outstrips the supply. And there is no way you can enough dollars to outstrip your demand. The best way is to moderate demand, create goods and services using local currency. Do you know the cost of producing anything in nigeria is tied to a dollar. We dont even have energy to increase production. So our exports cannot compete.

Government is not addressing the increase in price of cooking gas. If something isn't done, the price might get to 2k per kg in December. The way Nigerians celebrated 650naira per kg two months ago, the same energy should be used to condemn the current price. angry angry
it would take a long time to address that. The short term measure is to look for dollars and subsidize it. However, we need a total overhaul of the system. We need to build local technology that would enable us extract this gas nairally and sell in naira. This would bring down the price but as far as we are using dollar forget it. The same will happen for refineries.

People who are waiting for refinery have you seen that it would not solve our problem. Imagine gas excess in our being priced in dollars just because foreign entities who extract it pay dollars to do so. We need to nationalize our resources.

The central bank of nigeria should without delay discontinue the free floating of the naira. It is clear to all now that the policy can only continue to murder the naira. If proper research was done, the apc government should have known it was bound to fail because nigeria does not have the reciprocal fx inflow to maintain a free float of the naira.
because cbn doesnt have dollars to defend the naira so they had to flaot it. So that imf and world bank can always give us dollars when we need it.

u supported terrorist. Hamas attack on Saturday was very unnecessary. Hamas caused this for the Palestinians. Innocent civilians were killed and all d Palestinians and other Muslims were celebrating evil done by d terrorists. If enemy enters your house and killed your family pls give him flowers and pop wine. If hamas did not go and find Isreal trouble, Palestinians will be in peace by now. Stop this your bias judgment. Even those showing sympathy on Palestinians have stopped because of this evil. U were claiming Isreal stole Palestinians land. Tell me how Muslim dominate where they are now. Is it not d same killing of other religion people u used to spread your religion all over d world. Your Muhammed was a killer. He waged war to dominate Saudi. The same killing is happening in Northern Nigeria. Where u are killing d Christians in order to take up their land. This is hypocrisy among all of u. Why all terrorists are Muslims. If Isrealis have d same ideology like Muslims, do u think Palestinians will still be existing? All what Isreal were doing that has been affecting d Palestinians is a way of defending their people. We all know an average Palestinian is a terrorist. A Palestinian moving close to Isreal border is a threat and time bomb. You can't tell them not to fight back and defend themselves.
by boxing 12 million people into a corner? Can you live in such a situation without acting like an animal? Can you be harrassed 24hrs a day without acting like an animal. Is it because this people dont know how to use the media to their advantage? They killed a journalist, even when people came to mourn her they were beaten. Then send rockets, israel defends. Isreal retaliates bombing women and children. Common where is your humanity? Are muslims animals?

To negotiate for what exactly.

The truth is that even the 2 state proposition will not work because of the inherent hatred between the two countries.

One will attack the the other just because of hatred even in a negotiate 2 state system that both sides would have agreed and then the conflict starts again.

The reason Israel will continue to lock them into a corner and control whatever it can control is because they can never trust those guys.

They are bigger, stronger, have more advanced war equipments but will not use it on the Palestinians/hamas unless provoked like the Oct 1st attack.

But just imagine for a minute that Palestinians/hamas have half of what Israel have? What do you think will happen?

The conflict na forever conflict.
just have a big wall to seperate them. Bloodhsed on our tv screens especially of children need to stop.
