Biodun556:
Because of global recession, endsars crises was why federal executive council approved increments of Value Added Tax (VAT), custom duty etc
And this is the result

Decrease of Value of naira can only decrease government revenue, it can never lead to this huge cash

Which huge cash , if 900 billion is almost equal to 400 billion in 2014 , then how is that huge?

buhariguy:
that is why God will make majority to vote for asiwaju.
Or you think God will just come down from heaven and install him. No
God will use majority of us to fulfill his words

Lol if this God you talk about can control people that way , why hasn't he controlled corrupt politicians? Why hasn't he controlled Boko Haram, bandits etc ? My friend voting is totally in the hands of the people to make their choice not God

Biodun556:
It is not about naira value. Many government activities were down in that period compare to now

What are you talking about? It's no longer about the money allocated to states again?

buhariguy:
what God has said, nobody can change it.
That is the mandate

God hasn't said anything, if God has said something, we won't be talking of going out to vote

Biodun556:
It is never the same

Since 1999, the average monthly FAAC shared by fed, state and lg is between 600 to 700 billion

The 400 billion was as a result of global recession and that was why many states could not pay salaries

You don't get the point
Naira had value back then , check the value of naira today

The worth of 400 billion in 2014 is almost the same with the worth of 900 billion today

How much was 1 dollar to naira then and how much is dollar to naira today?

buhariguy:
since 2015

Is God an electorate in Nigeria ? Does he have PVC?

Biodun556:
When Buhari took over, there was global recession. The 3 tiers of government shared as low as 400 billions naira. Reason why states were unable to pay workers salary.

Nigerians never ask questions and easily forget things.

Last year there were some months that NNPC did not remit Kobo into federation account.

Nobody cares to ask where federal government is getting monthly allocation from

The value of 400 billion in 2014 is almost the same with the value of 900 billion in 2023

buhariguy:
God Almighty

When did God almighty mandate tinubu as Nigerian president?

DispatcherLagos:

My dear South Africans please pity us especially the prestigious igbos that have to behold the disgusting sight and irritating odour of this shit and the dirty way they eat the nonesense.

Tufiakwa

I have eating ewedu and Amala , it's a delicious meal , stop the hate , I don't eat akpu cause it takes time to digest , Amala is lite

YorubaNiBaba:
On jagaban's mandate i stand

What is his mandate ? Who gave him that mandate?

Interesting , this election will be first of it's kind

NgeneUkwenu:
They wan copy Tinubu

Just about 50 okada riders procured for the camera..

Atiku should just drop of the race, he has no pathway to victory.

Something that politicians have been doing since 1970s you are here talking about copying tinubu, why are village urchin's like this?

oluwaseyi0:
How do all this Randy men do it

Sleep with every weak thing in skirt: maid, cleaner, house girl, gardener daughter
Then turn around to reject the consequences of their actions even after DNA, is that trying to be a bully or trying to be wicked to innocent young children

Mr Babajide Sanwo oluw is towing same part just like many big men before them

Different strokes for different folks
Arnold Schwarzenegger accepted the child he had with his housemaid though it cost him his marriage

DMerciful:
Pressure of not wanting to disappoint the world because of the high pedestal he was placed as the GOAT made him deny his blood, what a shame.

No , could be something else, cause there is nothing wrong accepting a child you have out of wedlock

orohbiro:
Chai the girl done win lottery

She's dead , she died 17 yrs ago can't you read? And she was a grown woman with 2 children, not a little girl as you think

Kingcalls:
Stop these woke ideology and face reality

What reality my friend, not all customer care representatives are hired to talk , others write only

Betterdays007:
This morning, I went for a job interview for the position of a customer care representative. I stammer actually and I knew it was likely I wouldn't get the job. I met with their HR and we had conversation and during the conversation he asked if I was a stammerer and I answered in the affirmative, then he told me that I can't work as a customer care representative in their company due to my deficiency. I jus waka jeje comot there.

You don't stammer in writing, they could have hired you to handle their social media

Kyase:
More than what labour got in the entire state

I pity any TIV man still supporting APC

wermes:
I heard there are a lot of igbo Muslims in Nsukka

Any problem?

iCauseTrouble:
The truth is that Sanwo-Olu may be the owner of the child. However, the woman wan cash out. Why wait till when he became governor before shouting out?

Sanwo olu wasn't a poor man before he became governor he was rich , who knows sanwo olu did everything to prevent the lady from finding him , till he became governor and could no longer hide from her

Enddy50ty:
The money she used for hiring a lawyer for this court case should have been used for a DNA paternity test in a reputable hospital to determine if truly Sanwo Olu is the father of her son.

If she had presented a DNA test results to the court as evidence this case would have been over even before it started.

Do you know how DNA testing works? Both sanwo olu and the boy need to do the DNA to see if it matches, she can't just do a DNA of her child without the fathers DNA to confirm

HeRulesMen:
I don't know if this is the right section to post this, if not, mod please take it to the right section.

My online brothers and sisters, help me thank God for preserving my life as I almost left this wicked world last Friday, 13th January, 2023. 13th January has become a day I will never forget in life. Since I graduated from the university, I am yet to get a job that is well-deserving of my status. I'm not talking about big jobs with heavy remuneration (not as though I won't grab it if I see one of such) but just something to earn a living from. The last salaried job I did was a contract job which lasted only 6 months. Since then, despite my efforts, applying to every nook and cranny to land a job, I have been unlucky. However, I still keep hope alive.

However, it makes me think Nigeria really need to redefine and re-axamine the value of education in the country and what it stands for. Does it stand for nation building or for frustration? That is something for another day BTW.

Back to the topic, so with a woman and two kids to take care of, I had to go do labourer job at a construction site to earn something. That Friday was my second day in the place. I never thought it would end in disaster but I thank God that even after falling from such a distance, I didn't die, neither the mason man that was on the scaffold.

The thing is that I was carrying mortar and blocks to the mason, climbing using ladder. You know this local scaffold builders use. That thing they nailed together as V 'abi' L, place them on the wall and put planks on top to stand on. I don't know what happened that the blocks put at one end to weigh its balance failed while I was already up there. Long story short, everything collapsed and that was how we landed on the ground from the finishing end of the building. It should be a distance of 12 feet or more.

What worsened the case was the mason. As the scaffold collapsed, he immediately and unconsciously grabbed the newly laid blocks in safety attempt, not remembering he just laid those blocks. You know that kind thing. Landing on ground, that was how those blocks came upon us in their number like some sort of blast. To top it all, I didn't earn a penny that day. The man is even blaming us for the collapse.

I sustained injuries but my waist especially seems to have dislocated as a result of hitting it on ground while landin. I have been feeling sharp pains from the inside since then.

Since that Friday, I have been down physically and psychologically. As I am reflecting on it today, I decided to write it down.

No matter how it has affected me, physically, psychologically, economically and health-wise, I still thank God for sparing my life and I want you to join me in thanking him.

Thank you for reading also.

Thank God, what happened to your waist was not a spinal cord injury , but you have to do something about the dislocation now before it puts pressure on your spinal cord , protect your spinal cord,it's all you got

Aufbauh:
I can only see selected reactions from Obi's reagents.

All I could observed from Obi's Chatham house outing which is predictably not different from my perception of him is just an academic presentation from an average man.

Obi is obviously lacking in intellect, competence and capacity required of a leader we desire to provide the spectacular.

He lacks the tactfulness and resourcefulness to turn around the multifaceted challenges bewildering the county.

Governance is beyond an academic exercise of reeling out known problems without specific practicable solutions.

He lacks tactfulness and resourcefulness , can you elaborate more ?

Angelfrost:
He was seriously sick according to his wife...!

If his health was in crisis, he could have stepped down! An apology with an explanation would have sufficed for his fans and employers.

What if he had slumped on stage?!! Would you be praising him for professionalism?!!

Of course I would have praised him for it , entertainers go through alot just to satisfy their fans , some even die doing so

brendan007:
Can a lawyer please tell me the rationale behind pleading NOT GUILTY to a crime one actually committed, only to plead GUILTY later?

Not guilty till proven guilty

abobote:
Lol,
you know the reason, coz he doesn't want to give others the chance to try their luck. They might do it better than him, which will ultimately end his reign.

Anytime you see a manager who doesn't go on leave, have it in mind that he is covering something.

Wishing him speedy recovery

A typical Nigerian mentality you got there , taking your job seriously means not giving others a chance to try their luck , are jobs meant for people to go and try their lucks ?

Angelfrost:
Madam, abeg rest!

He wasn't being professional... He was merely taking a chance on his health just because of a huge amount of money!

Professionalism would have seen him stepping down and allowing someone else take the glory and the mulla!

Top Hollywood actors leave juicy roles for personal reasons especially health and family for other actors to take up.

If we are being honest, you just exposed your hubby as GREEDY!

Stepping down for what you know how to do Best , letting your fans down is professionalism to you?
Does it mean not showing up for work is professionalism?

id4sho:
Like she truly cares. Typical monkey dey work baboon dey chop.

She's from a very wealthy family , she married ebuka when he had nothing ,so shut up kid

nikkijohn97:
Does she cares before ni. If he dies there e no concern her. Make he sha bring money ni koko iranu

She's from a very wealthy family kid , shut up

Richardlove:
Even if he is a gay, are gays not human beings? I like her zeal about defending her husband.
Too many bad belle people everywhere now.

No one questioned if he is human or not

peepydelano:
Even though my vote is for Atiku, you can’t help but love Tinubu. . Tinubu is politically blessed beyond the imaginations of Obidients.

Why are you ashamed, support tinubu fully, don't use Atiku to cover up, why love tinubu and not vote him? Do you know what love is ?

Golan007:
Igbos that couldn't condemn IPOB when they killed Dr. akunyili are pretending to appreciate his daughter's lofty heights.

You think she can ever think of living in Anambra state?

And Yoruba's like abike that believe Igbos are the problem of Nigeria are doing eye service congratulation her , shame
