Politics / Re: Now That Subsidy Is Gone, What Is The Plan? - Babajide Fadoju by Johnrake69: 8:10am On Jun 11, 2023
Myopic understanding of the impact of fuel subsidy in our economy.

Fuel subsidy did subsidize everything in our economy.

Transportation, food, Healthcare, Education, Laundry, saloons, housing, car maintenance, home appliances, etc.

We should expect 50% -200% increment on some of these things.

We should also be ready for a recession. Many Nigerians can’t afford to go to work anymore.

Especially people earning minimum wage because it doesn’t make any economic sense. Earning 30K then spending over #1000 daily on transportation.

Many businesses will close up shop.

Okealaaye:
No genuine Nigerian, especially those Nigerians who have stood by their country through thick and thin will want their country to be run aground. None whatsoever. Ajaero or whatever he calls himself is highly partisan. He cannot lead a charge in this matter without exposing his fidelity to the desires of the Labour Party! Nigerians be cautious - the folks who went to war against us in the past are wide awake still. They may mouth patriotism all the time, but deep inside them is the desire to see our Fatherland fall into evil days. Do not agree with them the day they tell you that the goals and objectives of the mamba and the rat are the same!

That's Ajaero standing by Peter Obi on the Campaign hosting!

You mumu eh… This was clearly during the workers day rally that was held in Abuja.

Peter when to the worker’s day rally to celebrate with them.

This Tinubu and APC tribal politics has become a cancer
Politics / Re: FG, TUC Meeting On Fuel Subsidy Removal Ends In Deadlock by Johnrake69: 10:13am On Jun 05, 2023
Ruggedniggaone:
I expected train to have started working before the removal of the subsidy to reduce the cost of long distance travelling how am I going to survive paying 20k from zaria to the West from 7k 8k to more than 20k this is wickedness a lot of people will die of starvation if this continue

People underestimate the power of fuel subsidies in our daily lives.

People supporting fuel subsidies removal are either ignorant or gaining something from government.

If Average Nigerian is not sure of earning minimum of 250K don’t even talk about fuel subsidy removal.

The level of insecurity that will hit Nigeria will be unprecedented.

Bokoharam already recruit people for 30K according to several media reports. Over 130M Nigerians are in Multidimensional poverty and the government wants to expose them to International price movement for goods and services. We’re joking

Some people think because they earn #1M or #1.5M monthly they’re now part of the elites reason they advocate for rubbish.

Meanwhile the gateman in your house earns less than 30K. Your maid earns less than 30K.

Government will not stop at fuel subsidy removal.
Public schools is already dead. They’re coming for universities soon. You pay through your nose to get a degree.

400gram of Tin powdered Peak milk is now about #4000.

It will never get better. They’re promising a future that only their families will be alive to witness because average Nigerian would have died off due to overwhelming hardship.

Politics / Re: Subsidy Removal: Revert To Status Quo – TUC Tells FG by Johnrake69: 12:37pm On Jun 03, 2023
The way Tinubu’s men are attacking NLC and TUC leadership shows how dirty Tinubu’s politics is. Asking workers to ignore their Labour union leadership is just so despicable.

You removed subsidy before engaging stake holders, what was he expecting? We should all start worshipping him despite the untold suffering of Nigerians.

Someone that moves with over 60 vehicles on his convoy and currently have 10 presidential jets is telling Nigerians to endure.

If you be Tinubu supporter I sorry for you. Zombies.

Peter Obi is an accomplished Entrepreneur full stop.

You’re not anywhere close to giving him a financial advice.

Peter Obi with Card centre limited crashed the price of SIM cards in Nigeria.

Peter Obi with Paymasters help launch electronic payment in Nigeria. Deployment of ATM and POS terminals.

If he has decided to occupy himself with societal issues I believe it’s his prerogative

Oil palm plantation and fish farming are highly profitable ventures he can go into.

seunmsg:
What we are seeing is beyond political grievances. We have a particular ethnic group that are angry about the ethnicity of the incoming president and nothing else. Nothing can appease them except the head of Tinubu. Simply put, they are too full of hatred to be appeased. We will just mange them Witt their hatred for another 4 years.

This is a very foolish thing to say. In the whole of Nigeria it’s only in Lagos where Tinubu reigns supreme are non Yoruba residents threatened with violence during elections and this is not the first time. And none have been prosecuted.

But continue with your foolishness. I haven’t seen tribalistic people like APC supporters.

Preach what you practice in your region

The first Mayor of Enugu was a Fulani Man from Sokoto state in 1952. And he was duly elected by the indigenous people of Enugu. His name is Mallam Altine Umaru and held the position till 1958.

Igbos have always led by example.

Get Chelsea an Antonio Conte and see Chelsea fight for Premier League title next year. But he will rather go for a coach he can control. I hope he loses all the money he invested in the club.

Foreign Affairs / Re: Sudan War: Visa Officials Exploit Nigerian Students At Ethiopian Border by Johnrake69: 9:15am On Apr 23, 2023
Is the ambassador supposed to be sending letters or fly to Ethiopia to get Nigerians out?

This is the time we need good leadership. We all want good leadership but when presented with an opportunity to choose a leader that will lead from the war front we choose people that will rather go to France and UK for medical than build our hospitals.


This is really sad. I supported Peter Obi and Datti for this reason. We have been so accustomed to absentee leadership.

On many occasions I have seen Secretary of State in America traveling to the Middle East just for one American citizen.

I saw those traits in Peter Obi when he was governor. He didn’t send commissioner of environment to meet with flood victims. He was there himself helping to evacuate flood victims and even gave them government house as temporary shelter.

We can’t continue like this. We need people that will serve Nigerians and not Nigerians serving them like we have experienced with Buhari. The only thing that improved after 8years of APC’s administration was Buhari’s health.

Romance / Re: I Slept With 155 Prostitutes by Johnrake69: 10:20am On Apr 18, 2023
Pussykills:
I have come to the conclusion that I'm addicted to prostitutes. It started in 2010 when I first slept with a hooker. Its 13yrs now and I still patronise prostitutes. I slept with 155 of them, 55 were without protection.

The problem right now is that I don't have that much feelings for the new girl I'm dating. Since she's been in my life I have been able to stop but I noticed my soul still longs to experience that feeling of getting high and banging a hoxx.

In fact, I'm thinking if ending this relationship should be my next line of action.

This is not the first time, my past relationships ended because the feelings weren't there.

What would you suggest? Does sleeping with many partners make one loose the feeling of love? I don't get it, I can't even love, it's not just there.

How do you get addicted to prostitutes? A typical prostitute usually has a bad aura. How do you people enjoy sex with prostitute?

His federal low cost housing scheme that produced over priced houses that no sane person would buy at the stated prices after wasting billions of naira is a textbook case study of federal level corruption,embezzlement and mismanagement under Buhari APC government. Thieving liars.

One of the low cost housing scheme in Delta state just along Asaba expressway has been taken over by weed. Nobody is buying it. I haven’t seen such a bad job is in while. You will be lucky not to have the roof come down on the inhabitants. No quality control. Money wasted.
