Chibuzoc: Fear has engulfed Ikoyi-Ile in Oriire LGA of Oyo State after armed bandits reportedly sent two handwritten letters threatening a fresh attack on the community, accusing residents of disobedience and refusal to pay levies. According to Kunya Media, the threats dated for Tuesday, January 20 have triggered panic and forced some residents to flee as local leaders urgently appeal for security intervention.
How many more towns must be terrorized, how many more families must flee, and how much longer will Nigeria tolerate the unchecked expansion of banditry?
Ha so them dey pay tax to strangers for their own land, and no one has called on all the South west governors to evict their oppressors but na for chukudu shop them dey show power
Incognito403: Many of our people don't travel. Many of the ones that travel don't seize it as an opportunity to educate themselves.
What Ghana did to their currency is same thing Sierra Leone did. They simply debased (if that's the right term) their currency.
It's like Nigeria dividing our current money by a thousand so a dollar will be 1.45 naira instead of 1,4500 naira. And minimum wage becomes 70 naira instead of of 70k. And a litre of fuel becomes 77kobo instead 770 naira.
To the naive, the naira may seem to gain value. But in reality, a teacher must still work for a full month to earn 70 naira. And that 70naira will still be 101.5 dollars.
So nothing special. The only advantage is the ease of calculation.
Now why did Nigeria devalue its currency in the first place? And the Ghanaian rebasing their currency based on your explanations here , does it make any economic sense?if yes, what and what and if No, who is fooling who ?
Stephen0mozzy: Even in analysis of earning power against purchasing power, the naira is STILL useless. Let's call a spade a spade. Make una no dey formm rubbhesh patriot.
The dollar you're talking about, at an average of $17/hr; that 17dollars can get you a decent lunch or some groceries ( so you can work one 8hr-day and and be able to feed yourself for almost 4 days - in Nigeria, at minimum wage of #70k (#2,500 per day, roughly #300 per hour - #300 can only buy you two coaster biscuits of 4pieces each).
So if you're calculating, be detailed.
Please educate the patriotic illiterates ..This bunch of Nigerians are worst than the Political class, JESUS!
njokuuche77: Let’s be factual and not emotional. Ghana’s currency situation is often misunderstood. Ghana redenominated its currency in 2007 (₵10,000 old Ghana cedis became ₵1 new Ghana cedis), which reduced note volume but did not magically make the economy stronger. What matters is the purchasing power and macro-economic stability, not how many notes you hold.
Nigeria, on the other hand, did not redenominate the naira, and combined with heavy import dependence, FX shortages, inflation, and weak productivity, the naira has lost significant value over time. That’s why you see large bundles of cash that buy less in real terms.
In practical terms, Ghana’s economy is smaller than Nigeria’s, but it has benefited from relatively better fiscal discipline, clearer monetary signaling, and export diversification (gold, cocoa, oil). Nigeria’s economy is larger but structurally weaker due to over-reliance on oil, low industrial output, and FX mismanagement.
So this video is not a victory. It’s a reminder that currency strength is about confidence, production, and policy, not bundle size.
You started your defence well until reality forced you to state the obvious..A more larger economy with no discipline and relative stability..so from your own assertion, which country is better managed, Ghana or Nigeria? And who is to blame for the continuous mismanagement, the leaders of the the citizens? Offcourse it's the citizens comprising of fake patriots like you that always make excuses for the bunch of failures you put you into a precarious economic situation , while you can't say the truth cos you are being paid stipends that can not get you a bag of rice
PDPdestroyer: That’s just 108,000 naira, how is that a bundle of cash? Poverty die by fire
I keep on saying that the biggest threat to Nigeria is just the likes of fake patriots like yourself.you are the ones giving this demons called politicians hope in this country So you see Notting wrong when just 800 cedis will exchange for a hundred and eight thousand naira ...aah Nigeria is beyou d redemption, Arch Angel Micheal please blow that Truimpet, it's of no use
DomPerignon: This is going to be the case if Atiku, Amaechi, Obi or kwankwasso do not get their either ways.
Court cases will be instituted by the losing side(s) to annual the Primaries and whoever emerges.
Obi will be the first to institute one before a Federal High Court because he will emerge as the candidate aspirant with the least delegate votes.
Kwankwaso who is in the ADC to cause as much confusion as he can will also challenge the results of the outcome. Have you wondered why Kwankwaso will even leave his own party that he has a strong grip on to join ADC?
Amaechi is the one most likely to get the ticket but with the likes of Tambuwal in same ADC now who is backing Atiku, a repeat of what transpired in PDP 2023 primaries may repeat itself and this may see Atiku emerging as winner. This won't sit well with Amaechi. The only candidate most likely to accept his losses and not go to court is Atiku.
So whoever emerges as candidate will face a swarm of law suits challenging both his emergence and the ADC in court.
And knowing outcomes of such suits are always determined up to the supreme court, the final verdict will only be out long after the 2027 elections is determined and PBAT declared winner and sworn in.
So you should expect disgruntled elements working against their party during the election proper.
If Atiku emerges, the likes of Amaechi and Kwankwaso will work against him. If Amaechi emerges, Tambuwal will play the northern card and ensure ADC NW and NE members don't vote for Amaechi.
If Obi emerges, everyone in the party who contested alongside him will work against him.
Poster you have the APC to worry about, l ave ADC for we the masses to worry about and face your house of commotion in peace
Tinubu Doesn’t Need Nigerians' Votes to Win — He Needs INEC and Judges, Odinkalu Says
Nigeria’s political space has erupted after a respected rights advocate, Professor Chidi Odinkalu made a blistering claim: President Bola Tinubu does not need the votes of Nigerians to hold power. Instead, he argues, he needs just INEC and judges to win elections in Nigeria.
YouandiAllofus: This is getting out of hand. Something drastic needs to be done to stop these terrorists from committing further atrocities.
No e never get out of hand, e still dey for hand, make una dey look IPOB shebi una say na them be Una problem? I believe say all those wishing Kanu death that are from Niger state are viewing this as guest.
FatimaAbubakar: The arrest of Venezuelan president, Maduro should send a strong message to cheap online chest beaters who like to jump up and down like deranged orangutans anytime President Donald Trump is mentioned. These people think that Russia, China, or any other country is a match for the USA. The US will invade any damn fvcking country that happens to be a threat to their well-being. Russia and China will do nothing. So if you're thinking that Russia and China will intervene if Trump invades Nigeria, you're living in a fool's Paradise. Picking up that foolish terrorist called Gumi for Donald Trump is a waste of resources.
On the mandate of Donald Trump we stand. Put body make you collect. Body go tell you.
Don't mind the fools, Nigeria has the biggest educated illiterates in the world..make Gumi abi na Asari come cough
hisexcellency34: I saw some people online saying President Donald Trump can capture President Bola Tinubu just like he did with the Venezuelan President.
What do you guys take Tinubu and our armed forces for?. President of Africa's most populous country with vast military might captured by US? It can never happen
Trump knows his boundaries
Abeg make Una no put this old man for trouble oo una don dey hype wetin una no be giant for paper
helinues: There have been so many misleading information about the new tax law.
If you are earning below N800k, you won't be taxed and if your earnings fall above N1m which is the first tax rate formula, N800k from your N1m is tax free, the charges on the tax will be on the extra N200k
Please educate me, is this still applicable to the states? I mean the various states internal revenue services , will they also Levy their taxes online with this federal template or do they have a different ones?
Nifemy4: Reuben Abati will surely ensure that Arise Tv go the way of AIT. It’s just a am type of time before arise tv will become a thing of the past . You will agree with me that many stations at some point have encaptured the attention of Nigerians and made them seat by the edge of thier chairs.
But life as funny as it seem , everything has a time and a season .and no champion forever .
Lately, Reuben Abati has been caught singing the song of praise of the president . A sudden paradigm shift a lot of Nigerians feel it’s intended in courting the presidents attention like a new bride .Abati wants an appointment desperately , and it’s becoming so nauseating .
This singular act is what brings down many powerful stations in the past . We are not watching arise Tv to hear applause for the president, no , we are watching so the truth can be said to power .
Nigerians can sniff a million miles away the moment an henchman has been bought . Sadly, Abati has been bought for some shekels .
It won’t be long before they struggle to get a thousand view on thier station.
What do you expect from a person like him, a chronic tribalist
[quote author=Host78 post=137986958]Do you honestly believe this or you just want to type something so all of us can think that you're educated and know what we are talking about here? [/quote
Please were is Shrek Gumi? Your attention is need d on this subject...Again, the MuMuric fellow from the South west, I hope he is not pretending to be asleep on this. Oya, where is the Sultan or all the Northern and Yoruba leaders shouting up and down that there is Notting like Christina threat in Nigeria, una attention is needed here oo
jodasaman: I moved into my new house and I saw a couple of these symbols on some of the walls. They are mostly in the bedroom, but there are some in the living room as well. I am trying to identify their origin and meaning. Thank you in advance!
Didn't you inspect the property before making payment? Well, you have made the mistake, those symbols are ancient writings , most cases people from the Ruse crucian can read it perfectly well
Oga just make some contact , find out what to do, then pray about if you are a Christian but if you fate no carry am oga just leave
epainos: Trust has been lost. This is deep reason behind these posts, and no one should blame them. Well, the government cannot operate with your ideology, but your point is valid. Which should we take more serious? If you ask me too, I side with you. However, progressing forward is slow like this. So, it is showing day by day that the amalgamation of Nigeria is coming to an end. When trust is lost, nothing will function. We don't trust ourselves from the beginning. And the real truth is that there was no trust. Never join force with people of opposite religion. Different tribes, cultures, backgrounds can come together, but not different religion. And the worst is joining force with Islam. They should be left in their world alone. Nigeria should start getting ready to split. And I congratulate Igbos and SS in advance because they don't have many moslims among them. They can easily stop everything Islam if they want once they are not in Nigeria. But Yoruba will have to continue managing the situation. Also, Southern Kaduna and other non moslims in the north will have to ask for integration into a Christian community because they must quit their homeland; else, they will be the scape goats.
