No sector is safe under Tinubu economy

Mrchippychappy:
■ Even if it takes 10 million to die, it is worth it, baba must fix this country

Mrchippychappy:
Nigerians need to stop complaining and sacrifice more

phemray:
■ He removed subsidy that all former presidents are afraid of doing because of fair of the oil cabals and it's effects on economy.
■ He floated the naira and allow our naira to take its original position since we don't produce anything.
■ He allowed nigerians to know that we have been leaving a fake economic life.
■ Nigerians heavy complains shows that. Now the cabals on oil and forex didn't find it easy. But surely, Nigerians will soon get over it.

Melagros:
COMRADES, I think I'll advise tinubu to resign over incompetence

commoditiesnig:
Lol.. You caught him with his lies and he then edited his comment. I wonder why folks don't confirm facts before posting. That's one issue with mr Obi.

The current Air Force One aircraft, two Boeing 747-200B (VC-25A) jets, were first delivered in 1990 during President George H.W. Bush's administration. The aircraft have the tail numbers 28000 and 29000 and are named after Colorado's state flower in honor of Mrs. Eisenhower's home state. They are equipped with classified security and defense systems, including measures to protect onboard electronics from a nuclear explosion's electromagnetic pulse. The upper level has a telecommunications center, and the lower level has a cargo hold with a self-contained baggage-handling system.

■ Be reasonable and read widely. The Russian President has planes dating back to 2005 among his fleet and as latest as 2016. He’s planes are updated and well protected on air when he’s flying. The same goes for the American President. Those are the two most powerful Presidents in the planet.
What will happen if your President planes are updated and properly fitted? Or you think that a your APC government is looking for a Gulf Stream on $4m? BAT promised to cut down on costs and get look at his government with so much wastage. Are you not ashamed of the situation that your APC has put the country into? Should the first things not be dealing with insecurity and ensuring food sufficiency for the citizens? If all the resources wasted to give your APC leaders luxurious lives are spent fixing those two, would people lament of hunger?

Matrixoba:
Can our president just fly commercial to reduce cost of governance? At least, he told Nigerians to make sacrifices. Can he set the example for all?

Dpharisee:
Bayo Onanuga from the Presidency has responded to Obi that its true, asking if Obi wishes the President dead by flying on very old jets.
But see Reno messing up himself by denying om behalf of the Presidency this is sycophancy taken too far

■ Which of the jets were bought by Buhari, in what year and for what costs?. I don't expect anything less from supporters of a serial liar. The youngest of the Presidential fleet is 12years. The three aircrafts that are currently faulty and unserviceable were purchased by OBJ.

TK9680:
The current air force 1 is 32 years old. The current jet was bought by Obasanjo fairly new. It is a 737. Take it back to Boeing or Ethiopian or South Africa and you will have a jet you can use for.the next 10 years without any issues. The 2nd one is a assault 7x. This is a fairly modern aircraft. With top class maintainable, you can use these jets for thee next 10 years. Arnold's Scwarzeneggers pj is 40 years. And isI extremely good shape. This is just another waste of funds.

I spent 14k on 1 paint bucket of rice and white beans respectively yesterday....it will never end well for all supporters of APC.

stuffs2002:
Peter Obi is a pathological liar who will fall sick if he does not lie in a day.

fastseo:
■ You through insult when I am giving you fact about how economy works. As far as wages is increased and even now they demand over 400% it will accelerate more inflation .

sIfioksq:
Peter Obis criticism only shows his lack of understanding of the importance of modern and efficient transportation for our President Tinubu, who continues to work tirelessly for the progress of Nigeria

Isaacc729l:
Just like Tinubu, some politicians are quick to criticize without understanding the full context of a situation. We should all focus on the positive impact of Tinubus policies for the countrys economy.

Shadomaan7:
Looks like Peter Obi forgot to criticize his own lavish lifestyle before attacking Tinubus new jet.

Chinkoalhaji34:
Another day, another baseless attack on Tinubu from the Barbarians keep up the good work, Obi!

■ I said since productivity has not increase, money being pushed to the system will only ease pain for a little. Just as the 30k increase didn't ease pain for long. The lasting solution is when production increases in all aspects

fastseo:
■ Read again what I wrote above. I talked about printing of money. Fuel import, waste in government. I talked about low productivity etc

RealityKings:
2. You seem to know more than Jobs wife who made the statement herself. Or perhaps you don't read to understand. Read Job 2 vs 9. it is clearly expressed there in black and white
3. So you mean the Bible has nothing to do marital agreement or union?

■ Minimum wage was about 10k when a bag of rice was 6k during Jonathan regime. And soon it was increased to 30k.. Then gradually things went up to catch the new minimum wage. E.g a bag of rice went slowly to 10k then to 20k. Labour has been fighting to increase it again for a while n now the latest inflationary pressure gives them the perfect opportunity for that. Apart from wage increases, we have deficit budget: tax revenue less than govt expenditure.. Government keep spending than it receives, pushing more money into the economy This has been happening through out Buhari tenure till date n it encourages inflation. Interest rate policy: cbn maintain an interest rate of about 13 to 11% from 2019 to 2023 this made money available in the system. Printing of money to pay salary, fund project et. Bottom line is.. Any time money is pushed into the system expect rise in prices.... Since productivity hasn't increased prices will soar.. Lastly paying more money without increasing bag of rice in market will only led to people wanting to spend more money to buy same quantity of rice
You can never cook money rather u use it to buy food in the market

RealityKings:
1. It would be better if the scripture being discussed is sticked to without deviations.
2. Job had a wife, the wife Instead of encouraging Job to faithfully endure, his wife said he should just cause God and die . This is clearly recorded in Jobs 2:9 It is amazing that you have never read Job 2:9 for you to have made that statement above. But let's assume you don't know.
3. Your number 3 question is hilarious. You asked "What law is there that mandates a wife serve as a source of positive encouragement, even to Job?" What exactly is the function of a good woman, or you as a wife to your husband? Is it your function to tell your husband to go and die

fastseo:
■ Is about how sustainable it will be. Increasing wage rate when productivity has not increased calls for inflation. When u increase wage rate you look at the GDP and to what percentage of GDP.
■ If private sector struggles to pay, then the price of egg will increase, the price bank charges for account maintenance will increase, the price of school fees will increase, the price of transportation will increase. Price of rice might increase gradually to 150k, food stuff will increase All this won't happen overnight but gradually then in 10 years we will be at the table to talk about this unfortunately situation.
■ The question now is : How can we improve crop yield. How do we stop fuel importation to crash petrol price down. When will farmers go to farm safe. And manyore. But we keep electing unfortunate leaders who messes the country up

■ Like many State and Local Government workers have been doing since for years , and yet to collect the #30,000 minimum wage

My employer is not paying me the minimum wage. What should I do?
The federal minimum wage is $7.25 per hour. Some states have their own minimum wages rates. If the state minimum wage rate is higher, then the state law applies. For more information, see our site's minimum wage page.
Minimum wage violations are a significant issue, especially among low-wage workers. Analysis of survey data in 2017 revealed that in the 10 most populous U.S. states, 2.4 million workers lose $8 billion annually to minimum wage violations. This means that year-round workers lose an average of $3,300 per year, which is nearly a quarter of their total earned wages. While minimum wage violations affect workers in all demographic categories, 17% of low-wage workers are the target of minimum wage violations.
The federal minimum wage is enforced by the Wage-Hour Division of the U.S. Department of Labor. In states that have their own minimum wage law (or if you are not covered by the federal law), you should contact the agency in your state which handles wage and hour/labor standards violations, listed on our site's state government agencies page.

■ Okay, since they can't enforce the law...let the government agree on wage increase on paper..and everyone will be looking on enforcement. No wahala.

adioolayi:
■ You are not being sincere.. NLC and TUC are pressure groups...what have they done to enforce minimum in State and Local Government

adioolayi:
■ So, what has happened to private organisations with more than 25 staffs that are not paying the minimum wage of #30,000 as we speak Loads of private schools and private security companies for example, with millions of employees have not been paying.
■ According to reports, many state and Local government are also not paying the current #30,000 as we speak...what have they done to them There was an agreed wage award of NGN 35,000 for government workers as a form of palliatives for government workers, how many state government paid this What has happened So, what is the probability that all these establishments I have mentioned will pay any new minimum wage These are the issues

The Minimum Wage Act was enacted in 2019 and is dated 26th March 2019
According to the Act, certain categories of workers are exempted from receiving the NMW as their monthly salary. Section 4 of the Act, states that the Act does not apply to workers who work on;
● part time basis
● commission or piece – rate
● establishments employing less than 25 persons
● workers in seasonal employment like agriculture; and,
● any person employed in a vessel or aircraft to which laws regulating merchant shipping or civil aviation apply.
These categories of workers are specifically exempted from the application of the national minimum monthly wage and employers can pay them an otherwise agreed sum for their wages.

BluntCrazeMan:
Will Private Employers Pay Their workers based on this.?? Will Politicians also be Paid based on this.?? ... These two questions must be sorted out before we can make any meaningful progress.

What is a poverty line?
A poverty line, also called a poverty threshold, is a set amount of income below which it becomes difficult, if not impossible, for people to afford essentials like food and shelter. Each country determines its poverty line by calculating the cost of meeting minimum needs. Households with incomes below this line are considered to be living in poverty.
The international poverty line serves as a standard for measuring extreme global poverty and was recently adjusted to $2.15 a day to reflect the rising cost of necessities and adjust for inflation. Since 1990, it has increased from $1 to $2.15, reflecting the rising cost of living.
