That's not true. I have been buying from MRS at #841. Others should drop their price as well. That's the role of market forces determining price. We want it to go down further without being subsidised.

FamilyRe: It Was So Strange: Man Feels Discomfort After Sharing Bills With His Wife. by Johnson5258: 11:35pm On Sep 28, 2025
My honest opinion for emerging husbands is that, never you believe that you can singlehandedly take care of the family. You will literally abandon your life and live for others that can live after you. It is not an excuse for irresponsibility. Ensure you marry an educated and working woman. She will in a large extent understand what it feels to have money and you will not struggle with prosperity. At some point you need to be free to make a high chase in life. That is where your darling wife comes in.

Christianity EtcRe: Some Pastors In RCCG Don’t Know My Father Is The Founder Of The Church- Daughter by Johnson5258: 9:05am On Sep 21, 2025
I'm trying to wrap my head around what her statement depicts. Is it that Baba Adeboye should create a special office for the late founder's children or should he relegate his wife as not being part of his success? RCCG regularly holds doctrinal teaching which I believe the history of RCCG being taught. Pastor Adeboye most of the times talk about his relationship with baba Akindayomi. She should be happy that her father's legacy didn't go bankrupt. However, it is a church of God and not of Akindayomi.
PoliticsRe: ₦2.225Tn: FAAC Shares Largest Allocation To Federal, States, Local Governments by Johnson5258:
Your analysis is good. But you should recall that Dollar was subsidised with Naira(loan) at that time. The $1.48billion dollars is net. That means there is improvement.


Ofunaofu:
I understand the excitement about the $1.48 billion figure, and yes on the surface, it sounds impressive. But it’s important to put things in proper context.

Nigerians don't spend dollars, we spend naira.

FAAC allocations are now hitting N1.5 trillion not because the economy is booming, but largely because the naira has lost so much value. A few years ago, N700–N900 billion translated to more value in real terms because the naira was more stronger and have more value and inflation was much lower.

So while it may look like more money is being shared, the purchasing power has dropped significantly.

In short, a high allocation in naira isn't necessarily a sign of economic health especially when it's driven by currency devaluation and inflation. It's important we look beyond the headlines and assess the real impact on the lives of ordinary Nigerians.

There is a close margin between our trade Import and Export to India. But we are not exporting to US and China despite the trillions we send to them. We need more strategic partnerships with them. It has to work for both.

Okay they will because they didn't tell them to dig their grave like your people.

asolocoaso:

Genocide and genocide sympathizers will be called out. No matter how you try to sugarcoat it.
Also tell Israel to release all the hostages they locked up in Israeli jails before oct 7th.
Thousands of them.
Foreign AffairsRe: United Nations Declares "Israel Is Committing Genocide In Gaza" by Johnson5258: 11:32am On Sep 16, 2025
Go and read article 1701 of the UN that Lebanon should disarm armed groups and create a buffer zone for United Nations Interim Forces, was it honoured? Now that Israel has disarmed Hezbolah, do you hear them strike again? Israel is a nation, Hamas is a terrorist organisation. A country should not answer to terrorist organisation. All terrorist mechanisms should be disbanded. Don't judge with emotions. See how they raped those Israelis to the point where blood was coming out their private parts. Will you wish that for your enemy?

malali:
The crisis didn’t begin on October 7th. For years, thousands of Palestinians have rotted in Israeli jails—snatched off the streets, detained without charge, treated as hostages in a full-blown apartheid system. If your memory only begins on October 7th, maybe that’s the day you were born.

Israel has never cared for UN resolutions or international law, it never has, and never will. Only when Iran landed a blow did they suddenly start to blink. That tells you everything.

And spare us the cognitive dissonance of equating banditry with genocide. We know the difference. Your gaslighting is weak, your argument is watery, and your moral compass is broken.

PoliticsRe: Constitution Review: North Shifting From Status Quo, To True Federalism by Johnson5258: 9:31pm On Jul 18, 2025
You have a great instinct. I need you to educate me on how the federal government would get remittance from state and what happens to weak states? Will that not make state governors more powerful?

SmartPolician:
Oga, rest! NASS reviewed and amended the constitution under every president that came in. It didn't start with Tinubu and won't end with him. The problem is that they always leave the key issues untouched.

If Tinubu can actually influence the outcome of this constitution amendment, we want to have state police and resource controlled by states before the next general election. After all, Tinubu has always called for true federalism.

PoliticsRe: Buhari’s Body Arrives In Daura For Burial (photos) by Johnson5258:
Tinubu was there with his wife, I saw him live on Channels TV. He received his body from Shettima while his wife Remi escorted Aisha home. Everybody were surprised that Buhari was not brought in inside cargo but inside the cabin reserved for the president inside the Airforce one plane. He really did well with this despite Buhari's direct opposition of not wanting him to be the president. Let Tinubu rest abeg, he is a human being. Treat everybody well. It's important. Does Buhari knows what is going on right now? Tinubu literally gave him the treatment of a sitting president.

Write-up didn't say TINUBU paied his respects. The picture can be very fake.

Where did TINUBU pay his last respects...in London or in Daura? The plane didn't land in Abuja. So where!!!

CrimeRe: Customs Intercepts Container-Load Of Donkey Genitals On Kaduna–Abuja Expressway by Johnson5258: 8:53am On Jul 11, 2025
Thank you. I have been willing to understand what it is been used for.

I don't have extra words to make up 40 characters.

JustMakeMoney:
Donkey genitals — particularly donkey joysticks and skins — have been increasingly seized by customs in Nigeria because they are part of a highly lucrative black market trade, especially for export to China, where they are used in traditional medicine and cosmetics.

Here’s why they are valuable:

1. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM):
• The donkey skin is boiled to make a gelatin known as ejiao, believed in Chinese medicine to improve:
• Blood circulation
• Fertility
• Libido
• Skin health
• While the genitals are not as widely discussed, they are sometimes included as aphrodisiacs or used in libido-boosting tonics in some traditional beliefs.

2. Export Ban in Nigeria:
• Nigeria has banned the killing and export of donkeys and their parts to curb illegal trade and protect the donkey population.
• Donkeys reproduce slowly, and massive slaughtering for trade threatens their extinction in many African countries.

Customs Seizure:

The Nigeria Customs Service regularly intercepts large shipments of donkey parts — including joysticks, hides, and bones — being illegally smuggled for export. In some recent cases, tons of donkey genitals were packed and labeled falsely to avoid detection.



In short, donkey genitals are being smuggled mainly for traditional medicine markets, especially in Asia, and Nigeria Customs is cracking down to prevent illegal wildlife trade and protect the local donkey population.

Foreign AffairsRe: Kenya Wants To Purchase A $26 Million Missile Defense System From Israel by Johnson5258: 7:43pm On Jul 04, 2025
Only God knows what the world would be like if not for the West. If he knows the cost of 1 missile he won't be talking like that. Iran had to overwhelm the Dome just for one or 2 missiles to drop in Israel while Israel entered into Iran's airspace and shattered their so called air defence system. Russia that relied on told them majority of Israelis are Russian and they can't attack. Iran should better learn how to be peaceful. Is Pakistan no there?

Jahwinaboy:
You should equally be sorry to yourself brother. What have u contributed towards the advancement of Nigeria? Are you comfortable with the wantom and reckless killings going on in Nigeria? If for instance, Iron dome wasn't 100% , at least it created improvement for modernization. Though not totally a friend of the West, but is it not the same West that gave u education and opportunity to even type and defend yourself? Should a country that supports terrorism like Iran be allowed to continually threaten another country and you expect everyone to fold their arms? Do u know that without the so called West, nations would have been fighting and killing themselves with little or no provocation? You need to understand lots of things in life
