Honestly man, we need to start setting some standards. These women are having it too easy.

Guy, you don't deserve your dick.

Na una dey set unreasonable standards for these girls.

This is the only reason I think a woman shouldn't approach a man.

If he rejects you, how are you going to handle that? Some men can be very brutal with their rejection especially if you don't meet their requirements.

You stay alive.

After watching a lot of suits, I think this is a ploy to get the jury and her lawyer off him.

Tell her okay and you will be there to collect your things and watch her tell you she didn't mean what she said.

Or you could beg her and she's going to keep reminding you how she didn't want the relationship anymore.

Nickshrapnel:

LGBTQ you do this one.

michigang:

Happy married life my sister!

Everybody na scammer!

Basic123:
Peter OBI also planned to remove subsidy

I would be against even if it were Jesus.

nairalanda1:
Sorry, but all you have said here won't make much of a difference.

The problem is, the Nigerian government cannot control or determine the cost of producing petrol. And once the cost of producing petrol is rising higher than the government set price, the subsidy cost will also rise.

Now, would you sell your products, assuming you were a business owner, to people below what it cost you to produce? We have done that for five decades, and wrecked 4 refineries in the process.

By Jupiter's beard, there are times when I wish we could subsidize fuel to even as low as N10 per liter. But the thing is, the sector needs to make a profit selling petrol so that we can have lots of refineries, and support infrastructure, without spending a dime of government money.

Stop talking like a politician.

What gives you the impression that subsidy is the reason we don't have a single working refinery till date?

What gives you the assurance that this crop of corrupt politicians and mismanagers will build refineries if they stop paying subsidy?

Please stop talking like you are in a political science class. Touch the grass!

Some people don't actually love good things.

Infact, some people feel left out when others are talking about their patners infidelity and they can't say anything. Some peer pressure shit.

SalamRushdie:
They have lied to them they will give them palliative and they tell poor Nigerians only people with big SUVs are enjoying subsidy 😅😅😅

The palliative that will disappear with Buhari's government.

SReporters:
The question is, how many young men in this difficult Nigerian Economy has the guts to resist the sexual demands of a wealthy, married woman realizing the fact that your life could transform from the relationship?

A lot my brother. A lot.

nairalanda1:
Because if we keep the subsidy, we would see a rise in debt beyond what Buhari has incurred

Subsidy, roughly speaking, is what is paid to the petroleum sector as compensation for selling below the production cost of petrol.

The problem with subsidy is that government does not control the production cost of petrol. So, when it rises, the cost of subsidy rises, which means that we have to pay an increasing amount of money to cover the increasing loss from the increasing difference between the government set price and the production cost. This eats into the budget, and as a result, government has to take loans to cover the difference.

When the difference gets too much, in the past, government usually reduces subsidy cost by raising fuel prices a bit. As an example, in 2012, fuel was costing N65, landing cost was N99. Government raised prices to N97, meaning subsidy costs went down to N2 per liter from N34 per liter. (The above has been happening since the year 1973, which is why fuel is no longer costing 15 KOBO as it did in 1981!)

At the moment, we have too much debt, not only from covering subsides, but also from low oil prices from 2014-2021, which since oil is our main income source, means we have to take loans.

Throw in the fact that in all our neighbours, fuel is above N300 per liter. And people who are poor to people who are rich make lots of money smuggling fuel over the border. That worsens our subsidy costs. And yes, they should be stopped...the problem is, it isn't just the big takers doing the smuggling, it is also small guys with 50 l jerrycans carrying fuel over the border. Unless we want to build a fence, and staff it with one million armed border force people....

Note that OP, you are right about the negatives of subsidy removal. But the issue is...do we keep on throwing millions of naira daily to keep fuel subsided, and take loans and more loans, or do we remove subsidy, and save more money, and hopefully attract more investment, money and jobs to our petrol sector?

Keep in mind that subsidy is also why we cannot build and maintain refineries. And why refinereis get sabotaged. Ideally, a refinery should make a profit, and use that profit to run itself. Subsidy means that the refineries not only do not run at a profit, but whether they work or not, they get free money from government. And naturally, unscrupulous agents would damage the refineries to keep getting free money.

We are between the devil and deep blue sea. The thing is, subsidy removal could , if done right, lead to a period of prosperity after a period of hardship.


I know Nigerians do not like it. But at the end, if we had taken the subsidy removal road in 1993, by now we could have been a major exporter of high quality fuel to Africa and the world, and NNPC woulda had more than 4 refineries, and there would have been lots of private refineries.

Price controls do not work. Ask the USSR.

This was exactly what they said in 2015.

You'd think by now naija will be the largest exporter of food in Africa.

We shall see the refineries in 4 years time.

Who go talk?

If I say something dem go tell me to Ronu and to not be a bastard.

For every opposing view on the subsidy removal there is a fabricated nonsense on how it's good for the economy and how other countries implement it too. These are views backed by tribalism, nepotism, fascism and kolomentalism.

Bro, I'm just tired! Is it until I walk naked in the street preaching "subsidy removal is bad", is it then that our people will take this serious?

APC closed border, increased fuel price and no single protest became our people voted in messiah and now, 8 years later, he is still cooking our ass.

Make God just provide for us and make we double our hustle too. So when cold water becomes #50 per sachet, we will have money to pay.

If one actress can do it, why can't this guy do it.

Happy married life my friend!

If not for how bad things are, how much is #600k?

It's not weird to not pack her pants. A lady once called my attention to pack my boxers cause she wouldn't touch it.

Fiscus105:
Is he not studying with female students now?

It's not compulsory to have female friends just the way some guys have adviced him.

Why do you think so?

Why are you guys so scared of women?

Nothing wrong with that. Perfectly normal and okay.

Tadadobe:
You people need to open an apology thread

That one small now. Give it 4 market days and the apology thread will grace front page.

Make una no vex. We don learn our lesson. We no go do am again.

UniversalGee:
Okay. But then how do I go about? I'm an introvert, and I don't like the idea of approaching girls on the road to woo them. What are your suggestions?

Join a group in the church where you will make impact. The easiest one is the usher. If you can sing or play instrument then choir but if you can't, please don't go near choir department. If you are Muslim, I don't have advice here.

Join a group in your university where you can meet a lot of girls. You can join more than one here.

Make friends with those masculine girls too. They have feminine friends you can easily befriend through them.

Join departmental and faculty politics. Even if you don't win, you are going to meet a lot fresh babes while campaigning.

Don't be in haste to go home after lecture. Make it your duty to hang around like 30 minutes.

Make friends with guys too.

Don't listen to that bros up there asking you to focus on your studies alone.

You should make female friends because they are very important. You will also be working with them when you graduate, if you can't maintain a relationship with them while in school you'd find it hard when you graduate.

Do your best to thrash your social anxiety while in school. Please do.

Human relations is an important part of education.

The way you people hype big nyansh on social media ehn. I see ladies with big assets every now and then and many of them are jobless.

Being endowed doesn't even guarantee marriage.

Abeg!

I wish the government could take our sperm and eggs and give it to us until we are financially capable.

It was worse during the Roman empire. The popes were practically God on earth.

But in this age, it's totally up to you to enslave yourself.

Sixfeetbelle:
😅🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂

I can't like someone who refuses to unlearn and relearn. Since you've refused to adapt, I'm taking my likeness back. From the moment henceforth, I don't like you

Fine!

Next of kin don't automatically claim your properties, at least not in Nigeria.

It's the reason people do will.
