but If it were muslim related tread now ehhn. we would have seen people who would still take oath to come and insult islam

Sammy07:
Money must be scarce so that it can have value.

sad to know that many people haven't realised that economics has scammed them.

dollar is surplus in the us, infact getting 100dollar can take an unskilled labourer just 2 days of odd jobs to get (min wage of 11dollar per hour) yet the currency is very much strong and has value.

here in naija and unskilled labourer with connection can at most get 7k in two days yet the naira is useless.

there's a reason why nigeria is trading much with china cos the us ain't making life easy atall with their lies and scam exchange rate.

in 2015 I was told increase in local production would strengthen the naira and increase in export would also do well to the naira.

2015 came, oil price dropped, local production increased. naira crashed(why)

2017 oil price stabilized (increased to about $65 per barrel) to a certain extent, local production has started yielding results yet the naira refused to appreciate.

covid came again, the demand for dollar locally reduced as people were no longer traveling abroad, yet the naira crashed again?

take it or leave it, if something drastic is not done about it, we would never be able to grow as a nation..

at this point, I encourage artificial control by printing more money so people can use those money and invest.

if Nigeria print 20 billion naira cash, my brother no inflation go happen.

Claudiusdeux:
The US debt that has grown by 200% since 2008...and is now $27trillion.

The US has a strong currency largely because it is a producing nation, not a over-importing nation like Nigeria.

Just like China , which went from being behind Sierra Leone in 1973 GDP wise...to being a strong nation with a strong currency by being a manufacturing nation.

And thus the US can afford to print money because its economic activity is commensurate with that activity. Nigeria isn't that productive enough.

this na the English part of the who illegalities going on in the foreign exchange and financial policy.

truth is there are many illegalities behind all the English economics taught us.

I studied finance and won't want to go into details but truth is foreign exchange policy and world bank are all scammers.

the US is stronger than kuwait in terms of production but kuwait currency is stronger, china is stronger than UK in terms of production yet euros is stronger than yen.

guy forgot watin economics teach you jare.

iran currency won't be exchanging for over 50k to dollar if economics were to be fair.

Claudiusdeux:
1.Printing money involves us using scarce foreign reserves to do the job (because most of our currency is printed abroad).

2.Out of the same scarce reserves, we also pay our debts and pay for the running of the country.

3.Also, printing more money=inflation, and eventually a fall in the value of the Naira.

4.Naira can only become more strong if we are more productive.

5.Our creditors want their cash in dollars, not in Naira.

(NOT AN EXPERT....someone can do better than me!)

remove inflation from that list, inflation from excess cash in the economy can't be the reason for us.
there's cash shortage in the country and we know that, people are buying products and are unable to sell them cos no cash in the country.
many state workers are being owed and now the federal government are towing the part of state govt.
if dem no pay workers, who go buy food?

cliqtips:
Na so....
Before now, they said the report was not true and now this.

I'm concerned about Nigerians because this government will never say the truth.


Waiting for mr lai to come and say there was nothing like kidnap

read content not headline.
they said the report of over 600 kidnapped was false but only about 100 missing.
pesin when no see the previous post go think say you dey make sense.

No be only zulum Na gwuru

I really like that Peter Obi of a man

El rufai is misunderstood he will make a good president el rufai is the most objective politician currently

then Osinbanjo the problem I have with osinbanjo is that he has been there so make e rest

I swear down, elrufai is very intelligent and objective.
people like him would give you result at the end.

Hustlers everywhere.

lies, and the us white listed saudi and gave china visa free entries.

Dreadlock69:
I created this topic in this section to get a wider audience please contribute if you have /had the experience
Early my teenage years, I do have a female neighbor very close we play and do all things together both bad and good you know what I mean,most times she will sleep and her eyes will be open lying at her back ,I do mock her about this and laugh about it .she always say she can't control it that I won't understand that she see everything happening around her but can't move ,I'll be like how is it possible I don't believe you but she will say dreadlock69 you won't understand.though she really stressed herself sleeping late but she is very bright with her books my parents used her to mock me.
However mine started when I was ss2 I could remember vividly well it happened one night I was sleeping all of a sudden something griped me I can't move I can't breath it was like something or someone inside the room was taking my life force out of me ,I'm very much aware of my environment but when it's stopped I be gasping for air and my heart will be racing ,this repeatedly happens every night at times worst and horrifying ,one night it happened again I was terrified and told my parents they told me nothing gonna happen that I should pray over it.
"Omo nah just the beginning I dey see ooo"
Later when I finish my secondary school I still experiencing it but ,this time round I can breath well but still see images .then I got my new phone I surfed the internet then I came across an article talking about this which seems to relate to what I experience then I made more and more research and findings which were scarying and calming.i remember one time I'd told my brother not to touch my phone strictly warning him then I slept off and the sleep paralysis started I woke up but can't do anything can't move ,can't talk just lifeless but I can see and I'm aware of what is going on in my environment and behold my brother was using my phone I was in anger but I can't do anything I just lay there lifeless with anger in me till it fades off thank his stars he went out before I regain consciousness
Another experience was when I watching a horror movie it happened the again when I was having a nap I was so scared I just have to close my eyes not to see images.
Later on I had full control over it and sometimes I transit from that state to lucid dreaming. Then I had a good work with all good amenities not stressful you can take a nap anytime you like , funny enough my partner experience it also I noticed the day he was sleeping but his eyes where open trying hard to move his body ,I just left him till it's fade off
So one day I was having a nap in the bedroom my boss was calling me I could hear him but I can't move anything just laying lifeless I was praying he should not catch me in this state .
Sometimes I'll have to call my partner but he is still in that state but I have to wake up,which he do wake up looking frightened.

I just learned how to lived with it cause I can't do anything bout it and feel for people who experience this but don't know how to manage it
Probably transit from that state to lucid dreaming
Maybe someday I'll have to tell my spouse or someone to close to me to not get frightened if they see me like that maybe a girlfriend, a wife ,my child I can't say for now
What your opinion on this

op was in your shoes years back but I can now manage my own.

this was the tread I read that made my calm.

https://www.nairaland.com/766203/sleeping-paralysis-share-experience

it's very normal, learn to manage it, try sleeping with your face down or sideways.
also avoid your legs pointing upward or your head way below your body.
it occurs as a result of your brain having difficulty connecting to your body.

Pierocash:
Don't let what you read online deceive you that it is sleeping paralysis.

What is happening to you is demonic. You are under witchcraft attack. Nobody who have such experience that won't suffer one misfortune or the other. Some ignorant dudes will soon land and start claiming intellectuals,and forming technocrats by calling black people ignorant.

But bro, take my word for it,you are under demonic siege,go for deliverance because I was in that situation of yours ,I did deliverance and am totally free from that rubbish. I sleep perfectly well like a baby for many years now

I used to think it was spiritual too until it hooked me someday, it was so intense that day I had to make research on it.

I knew it was normal after reading this tread below on Nairaland.

almost every body in the world experience it, so nothing demonic about it..

UnBanEbenezer:
I can't count the number of appointees he has sacked from office just because they refused to defect with him and he is busy doing all these to please his Fulani masters in Aso Rock since APC promised him 2023 presidential zoning to the SE so he's all fighting for the ticket not knowing he'll soon be used and dump.
cc LZAA imhotep NgadaAwo Gandollaar

lies upon lies.
umahhi ain't stupid and he made it clear that his defection was a protest to the pdp to zone it's ticket to the east.
apc never zoned to the east and won't likely zone to the east.
every sane mind knows that.
apc are zoning to the south in general and who wins the primaries carries the day.

UnBanEbenezer:
guys if you know someone that is a cultist or has any notorious lifestyle, don't even walk with him, I have a very bitter experience and it was God that saved me that day from being roasted after He saw my innocence.
Back in 2014 there was this guy that we both learnt how to repair generators, due to the skills as we were both apprentice we got so close but I started to distance myself from him after I went through his phone's gallery and saw all those rubbish cult songs, chants and pictures.
One day he came to me after I complained that I was broke, he now told me about a lady that asked him to come over and repair her generator so we should go together and he'll then share with me the proceeds. So I got so happy and we both went out and he offered to book keke a drop for only both of us, I noticed how he kept staring at the face of each keke driver before he finally settled for a certain innocent looking man in his early 50's, I observed he was with a matchet and I asked him the essence of the matchet and he told me he'll be going for bush clearing at the same lady's farm after we're done repairing her generator, unknown to me that his intention was to use the matchet to threaten and rob the keke driver.
He then made a fake call and told me the Lady was in the farm and asked us to come over to the farm and assist her after which we'll both go back to her home, repair the generator.
The unsuspecting keke driver drove us to the bush according to this guy's direction and then we arrived at a thick bush, then he came out, removed the matchet, pointed at the driver and asked him to remove all the money he has and surrender it to him, the man yielded and immediately the man drove off with full speed and started shouting "ino oh, ino oh ino oh" (thief oh 3x) then the guy escaped and i was left dumbfounded.
The young men living there came out and the driver told them that he was robbed by two guys and they cited me and pursued me, how I escaped was God's pure grace and I found myself at home.
That was how God saved me as I'd have been burnt cos here in Calabar thieves get burnt for something as little as a phone or wallet.
I then learnt my lessons, the bastard however came to my place, apologized and shared the money but I rejected it and he robbed the keke driver of the sum of 20 thousand naira.
He told me he needed the money so as to pay their monthly dues cos if you're a member and you don't have money to pay you'll be severely dealt with, reason why they go into arm robbery and pilfering.

so pesin go scope me join cult, make me do bad things and I go still dey pay due??

to who?

if you be cultist for this platform, your fadaaaaa two times.

which kind rubbish association be this?

all through my uni years, I never liked that shit.
always saw myself as someone greater and better..

Naajjii:
So whats is the connection between the dressing and the people killed? You did this post to attack us the northern muslims, that is what it is.

take it personal, it's your own cup of tea.
I'm a northernern and also a muslim and would remain so.
it's who I am and my identity bro, I'm no hypocrate and I own up to my mistakes.

it'll be a shame on you and not we northerners if you can not openly accept your errors and make amends.

may Allah help us all

Naajjii:
You sounded like nyamiri, thats why i didnt check, but now i checked you look like north central people. You made this post to attack your fellow northern muslims

it might seem that way to you, but I made this post because I was utterly bitter and need to let my northern brothers wake up from their slumber..

Naajjii:
Absolutely he lied both on the story and also he is not from the north.

bro u should have made your findings through my previous post on this platform.
I know being a northernern, this post is a hard pill to swallow especially in a forum like Nairaland where tribal war is the order of the day.
I'm a northernern and I've gat nothing to prove to you.
6years on this forum ain't shitty for me to start forming separate identity.

stumbled upon this post on Facebook and was disappointed about the hypocracy of we northerners.

islam teaches us so much about about hypocracy and why we should desist from such act but yet the same people claiming mallams has taken hypocracy to a whole new level.

may God help us in this country.

LimAnc:
The sad reality that we have to live with.
Lately the little girls are the ones who offer themselves like lambs to be slaughtered for reasons best known to them but my guess is that they are victims of a failed society and peer pressure..

bros me I hardly blame the children oo.
how would a 16 year old girl or lesser offer herself to me and I would accept instead of dashing her a resounding slap that would restore her factory.
guy even 19year old girl when never get body I no follow.

ILoveDemMANNA:
What do kids know

If we have more funds come in as remittances, our foreign reserves go up, and when that happens, the confidence in the Nigerian economy will go up

kids may know nothing but you don't expect them to sit down and sing emefiele praises when the naira keeps loosing value on a daily.
if the naira appreciates it either by 1 or 2 naira but If it falls its always 50% the innitial rate.
the exchange rate as at today is making hardworking Nigerians appear lazy cos I can't imagine hustling a whole full day and going home with 5k yet that said 5k ain't up to $20.
e dey pain when you try to buy goods online.

me I know this move na just Gramma cos I know the naira would never appreciate at most it would stabilize at 460.

emefiele needs to do more cos compared to other cbn governors in Nigeria, he should tag himself as worst..

tyup:


Well in my own opinion there's no intending attack to happen in Borno, i repeat there's no intending BH attack to happen in Borno the military is not aware of afore/ ahead of time cuz I refuse to believe Camp zairo sector command telling Nigerians they never saw Boko Haram advancement all the way to Zambarmari

meanwhile, my heart goes out to the affected, if you've ever lived in Borno you'll agree with me of all states in 9ja Borno shouldn't be the one ravaged with insurgency

the special force in the military hardly go into battle this days.
they just create military presence in some locations they are and protect their territory.
the days of gun battle with bokoharam are hardly still in existence.
dunno why but weapons and wages can't be the reason.
cos they are paid massive special force allowance aside munguno allowance and salaries.
special force allowance for recruits is about 40k.
munguno: 20k
salary: 53k

that's big if you ask me.
although no amount of money is worth lives.

omoharry:
If the Hausa's chooses to remain slaves to the Fulanis', then whose fault is that? we are taking about the post war era and you are referring us back to the pre-war incident. The East have never tested power since after the war, due to the mix feelings other regions had toward them .
The Hausas' have the population but only allow themselves to be used as weapons for the Fulanis during their religious and political revolt. If they choose to remain a second class citizens, despite their huge pollution, then whose fault is that? You are a northerner and your region have ruled which we are praying it comes to an end quickly before we all die from hardship. .Right now according to the APC zoning, it is the turn of the South. So why are you interfering in the affairs of the South? Let the SS/SE/SW within the APC party, decide which region should run for presidency.Mind your business.

mind my business??
bros go look the guy when quote me first.
in the voting of candidates even delegates from the north still choose to vote so it's not just a southern affairs.

politics is all about permutation not turn by turn even though an unwritten law in Nigeria states that it should base on turns.

we all have a say and like I said earlier, I'm pro APC and a Nigerian so it's my business.

blackgold90:
You are from middle belt if that is true how many Democratic president have you midbelt produced since 1999.
And here is south west wanting to produce 2 president and one vice president and you are not ashamed of yourself.

As I said, since 1999 the south have produced 2 president with long stay and am not worry if north east,north central or midbelt produced the president.

And should power return to south which is expected it should be south east.

Any attempt for APC to zone it to south west PDP will snatch power by zoning it to north then all the south will now be rotating Vice presidentship ever.

Me while am from South South.

we've had 3 presidents.
Gowon, ibb and abdulsalam.
doesn't matter whether it's during the military or democratic era, thing is we've had our share of leadership.
I know how much southerners hate quota system.
it doesn't make much sense for one who worked to earn and deserve it to be denied by quota system.

tinubu has played his cards for APC and I think it's only right if he gets the ticket in return.
besides he's a credible enough candidate just like every other Nigeria politician.
but if your from the south south,
you should be more demanding and concerned about pdp honouring your loyalty
I've never seen a Yoruba man on this platform condeming pdp about their presidential zoning.
pdp is a party igbos invested most just like yorubas and APC.
you guys should keep off how APC run its affairs.
you should be more concerned on getting the pdp ticket and winning tinubu come 2023.
if you have the nation's love.

"biafra mantra comes to mind of other Nigerians"

put your head one-side.

sulaimania2003:
I won't call you lazy or Mumu because you are more than that .What more can I say of a person who have no idea of what he is saying .
If you are from the East ,Now you see why I said 'It is funny to think APC will Zone it ticket to the East .
Now listen to the fact and let it get to your head.
In 2003 election the Northerners ensure that Buhari defeat Obasanjo the then president in the North.
Buhari defeated Obasanjo the president of the country in Bauch,Bornu,Gombe,Jigawa,Kano,Kastina,Kebbi,Sokoto .I'm not sure of that of Kaduna yet .
So,tell me where the support is .
I hope you never forget this and always try to be sure about Nigeria politic .The reason you are on the wrong side every 4 years .

we've gat 19 northern state and you mention just 8 buhari won.
even amongst those 8 with slight margin.
bro I'm from the north and your idea of northerners being power drunk is absorbed.

yes the north dominated the military rule which every one is welcomed to plot coup but since the democratic era the selfish illusion of northerners born to rule mentality is just your own fiction.
just like the fallacies of buhari trying to islamize Nigeria.

if the north were so strong, addicted and selfish with power, jonathan would never have won buhari in 2011.
atleast those reasonable votes he was getting in kano and other northwest states won't be available.

spy24:
Igbos are opposing Yoruba presidency because it's rightfully their time to rule

But the reason why Yoruba is against Igbo presidency is not known

And to be honest Igbos don't have obsession about becoming president as yorubas and hausas do

They are just against Yoruba becoming president after obasanjo and osinbanjo combined i6 years in Abuja

And mind you they are not even showing open hatred to a Yoruba presidency as you people are showing it to them

ur blind to your own gimmick.
I'm from a middle belt tribe and am not blind to the hatred by both tribes. I think igbos are the worst when it comes to displaying hatred amongst other tribes and regions .

tinubu worked his way to the top of the APC flag bearing heirachy so it's normal for him to have enemies who saw it as normal things to hate on him.
well every successful man has lots of enemies.
and the case of igbos time to rule, u must be a joker.

many tribes have not ruled this nation unlike igbos who had azikiwe and aguyi ironsi .

go and fact check, Hausa who are also a major tribe has not ruled this country and if you try to merge hausa and fulanis together, we can as well merge SS and SE together.

also note northeast has also not ruled this country before.

so I guess it's the turn of hausas and Northeast to rule going by your antics .

Fahdiga:
Tinubu is just chasing shadows. even we the Yorubas are tired of his overbearing attitudes. 2023 is for the Igbos to produce the president or everyone goes their separate ways

yorubas don't have flat head bro.

sulaimania2003:
It is funny how some people believe that APC will Zone their ticket to the South East .
Pls on what Basis??
The problem some Northern political had with Tinubu is that Northerners don't like Powerful politician from the West to be president. because they like people they can control easily .

mumu and ugly talk.
and yet northerners supported obasanjo who is a lazy politician as well as obasanjo against buhari in the past..

spy24:
Give me a good reason why Yorubas don't want to support an Igbo presidency ?


Because from all indication you people seems to be the only region in Nigeria that is systematically plotting and openly opposing idea of an Igbo presidency.

I'm not Yoruba first.
secondly both igbos and Yoruba are rivals in the forthcoming election so it's not just a case of only Yoruba opposing igbo presidency but igbo also opposing Yoruba presidency.
thirdly, yorubas seems to be working towards the seat a long time back and just until recently igbos started making positive moves with the likes of umahi defection, uzor Kaku political permutation and elrufai and amaechi political romance.


I'm pro APC and I'll support any positive candidate my party put forwards which includes. Amaechi, tinubu, osibanjo, Rochas and uzor Kaku.
although my most preferred choice is Amaechi.

spy24:
North will never support a Tinubu presidency same with South south and south east

Even the body language of buhari and is cabals does not support a Western president come 2023

this is not about Tinubu it's about equity

but we supported obasanjo and even jonathan against buhari in 2011.

all these na assumption political analysis, it's normal to see such news.

APC would zone to the south, uzor Kaku, amaechi and tinubu would drag the ticket and tinubu would win.
although I hope amaechi wins too.
