CodeTemplarr:
All the puff puff and fish oil hands she used to handle the Naira has come back to hunt her.

Do those look like Naira notes to you? Lazy youth like you

radautoworks:
if you're worrying about health with a burger you are on a long thing

To you, burgers are healthy? Na wa o. Oya continue na. Infact, add more beef, eggs and mayo.

Rampant inflation plus currency collapse without economic growth is terrible.

Recently was speaking with someone who was advising I buy land as investment in certain areas. Person used their purchase years back as an example. At about 2009, they had bought a piece for 16 million. That piece is now about 75 million. Good profit he thought.

We sat down and crunched the numbers.
1. 16 million in 2009 at exchange of about 135 was about 118k usd
2. 75m today at an exchange of 1600 is about 46k usd. I.e 72k usd lost.

This is depressing but then we have not considered that the dollar itself has lost over 40% of its value in that time. So despite the land being worth more naira, there is no real term return (i.e after taking out inflation) but rather a significant loss.
Some might say why bother about usd- this would be true if our currency was stable. Today, the usd exchange determines the cost of most goods we buy.

What burst our brain was crunching the numbers to see if that money was put in a globally diversified index fund. Historically, despite volatility, these have yielded an average of 7-9% annually longterm. That 118k usd if invested in a global fund would be worth at least 374k usd today. That's how to track or beat inflation and how many westerners fund lavish retirements. I'm not even going into ease of sale e.t.c between both

Nigerians with Naija passport are not allowed by international brokers to invest in global ETFs. So they must work with what they have na.

Pepperdemisback:
There's no marriage in the first place, she used juju on the guy and the guy's eyes don clear now.

She was dating this guy before going to BBN, she met Lamba on BBN, having sex and doing rubbish. Feeling that Lamba is better than this guy, she moved on with Lamba, they started flaunting themselves to taunt this guy on the Internet till she got pregnant and Lamba refused to marry her, so she turned to Baby Mama.

Barely a month or two after birth, she now carried herself and Lamba's baby to go back to this man to marry her. The man married her with Lamba's baby who was just few months old. Just imagine! No be juju be day? The juju don clear.

Which Lamba she meet for BBN? Na so una go just open mouth dey carry stupid news up and down. To konk that your bald head dey hungry me I swear

Samfloxin:
Before I open nairaland even before I make comments, I will be asked to verify if I am a human by the site or whatsoever. This has become too much and annoying. Is there any way I can stop this?

That’s what happens when you keep switching between numerous monikers. Lazy youths

bestman09:
Skit?

Obviously

PrinceOfLagos:
A white man shot dead a south african woman and feed her corps to the pigs just recently in South Africa and I didn't see this foolish activists say shit about it or sign any useless petition . But it's a fellow Black man coming to perform in their HIV infested country that they finally found their voice

Nonsense

They actually did. Get your facts right!

WannaHowzit:
Personally i want to see him banned. US law treats celebs with kid gloves, he got community service or something for brutalising Rihanna. The rest of the world should show him that's unacceptable.

US celebs are treated with kid gloves and Diddy is rotting in jail with no hope of bail. You sound like a jealous and frustrated lazy youth, masking your jealousy behind feminism.

The guy has done his time and served his punishment. Should he continue to be punished for life? Do you know how much in earnings the guy has lost? This guy would have been one of the biggest music stars alive if not for that mistake. Can we just let CB breathe?

Psoul:
Every excess luggage outside the allowable weight is charged and be paid for.

If you don't want to pay, don't carry excess luggage.
If you must carry, you either go and waybill it or pay for it as accompanied luggage.

You either pay to the right source and get your receipt or pay to these airport staff to cut corners.

We should stop bn silly in this country.
Do the right thing.
Even at the motor parks, you pay for your excess luggage or you buy extra seat for your luggage.

I'm not an airport staff but we should respect everyone's place of work.
Some customers will come to your office and want to order you on how they want to be served even if it goes again that person's office policy.

You think you just spoke smartly but you ended up sounding very dumb.

Excess luggage payments are made directly to the airline and not FAAN. I no go surprise say you never near airport for your life. Hopeless lazy youth like you

ogaemma:
The MMM Airport need an urgent reform.
I don't have an idea about the workers welfare, but their rate of begging and extortion is so alarming and shameful.
If they are not begging you, they will be extorting you.
The last time I used the Airport, the Centra AC was not working, you cannot use their public toilet.
There are some area of the Airport that is smelling.
Many of their Security digital system are completely out of date.
That is why drug traffickers normally use the MMM Airport.
When you visit Cairo International airport Egypt, and Kenyan Nairobi Airport, one will ask why is Nigeria backwards.
I have transited in Cairo International airport many times.
Nigeria is richer than Egypt, but you cannot compare the 2 airport's.

Cairo and Kenya too far. Go to Cotonou, Accra and Abidjan airports just close by and see if you will not weep for days for Nigeria

Bigboytinz:
Team assistant needed in Abuja. Should be presentable and outspoken. Only shortlisted candidates will be contacted. Salary is standard and attractive. Email CV to activationconsults@gmail.com

This one dey find who he go kidnap. Why don’t you ask your sisters to apply? Nonsense

fineboynl:
you didn’t see where i said they already going bad? The York is not at the center. They should have sell a crate that just 1 week way from expiring.

I bought i crate to store it. How can i consume all that in a day?

Guy, wetin be york? You sure say you go school?

Mom007:
Everyone displays eggs a week before BB date. I hope you know BB date is different from expiration date. Even here in UK, you will see milk and eggs whose sell by date is next tomorrow, still in the big name stores. Just that they will do 30% off. By evening it will be 50% off. By a day to go they will pack them to community centers to dash to the poor. Nobody throws stuff away even here where they are cheap as chips. E come be for naija where a crate is over 6k... are the shops making 6k on the whole batch they sold that day? You people don't pity yourselves, you want the small business man to kill himself to please you. Again I ask, what should the stores have done? Throw it away?

That person is one of the numerous dumb lazy youths running around Nairaland. Don’t waste your time engaging him. If only I could locate him to give him a very hot konk on that his shiny bald head

Mom007:
I don't understand you. It says best before 14/10/24.
Today is 8/10/24. Best before date is next week Monday na...

The level of stupidity on this Nairaland is at an all time high. Walahi.

themanderon:
He was definitely here. Maybe as a mercenary or a spy agent and he still keeps tabs over what's happening here to know we have 37 mostly unviable states.

It’s called education. Some people actually love to learn. Not everyone is as dull as you lazy youths that Nigeria produces these days. Very disappointing

Oleash:
Arrived just before the war, stayed in the same hotel as the mercenaries and knew about their bombing activities. These would be confidential military information. To be honest, I think he was one of the mercenaries.

In a black country, you see a bunch of young oyibo men flown in during the war and you think it takes a genius to tell you these are mercenaries? Nigerian lazy youths can do better I swear. God have us brains for a reason!

TEYA:
What is bad about being a Uber driver that you think for a white man to be doing it, then it has to be a punishment from God? Kai Nigerian!

Uber driver spotted..

Axis313:
The guy is an ex CIA or ex mi5,he understand Yoruba and Hausa,even Arabic.
Nobody can convince me otherwise.

So all your fellow Nigerians that live in foreign countries for years and speak the local languages must also be ex CIA na. Omo, to flog all these useless lazy youths for una bald head dey hungry me I swear

zed7:
This man is either CIA, or a foreign spy. He may even have been a mercenary. Very few tourist or expatriates who even stay long know this much.

I feel like giving you a hot konk on that your bald head. What has he said that is not known by anyone interested in history? How different is it from knowing how JFK was shot and how his killer was caught and then also shot. So knowing these things makes me a foreign spy abi? I tire for all these hopeless lazy youths wey dey run around this Nairaland

LadyExcellency:
That Uber is also a camouflage, he's still an agent of a special intelligence unit.

If he was an agent, he will be giving out all that information that could expose him? You think say secret service work na child’s play? Omo, dullards full this place o

radautoworks:
They stopped selling your favorite breakfast burger? No problem! Things are not as hard to make as they seem.

Heart attack loading….

Be careful!

descarado:
Was told my dad has chilli he chew as he eats.
Wtf.
I think I have his reincarnation in my house. Spicy chilli is endangered spice in my kitchen. I mean,I will combine the spicest of them all and the day I want to use it, jar is empty.

I love hot chilli especially in this season. Has been raining cat and dog here since 2 weeks. Hospitals are filled with covid breakout.

All that chilli no dey affect your belle? Your toilet go don hear ween after all the eruption wey you don subject am to 🤢

Afrowits:
Is like my papa is so stupid. Is he even alright. Must he quote my comment. Please tell my papa to carry him stupidity go front and don't quote my comment again. Me and papa nor dey drag anything. I nor know my papa , he nor know me. So make I carry my stupid argument go front.

Hahahaha. No wonder

regenerateman:
We complain in Nigeria of marginalization by the North connering the political offices of this country. Mr Akinwumi Adesina is leaving office next year and he is supporting his fellow West African from Cote 'd voire. Why not support the candidate from Zambia? It was the North that gave Tinubu the president in 2023 after jettisoning their own son, Atiku Abubakar.

Do you know there are English speaking and French speaking countries in Africa? What makes you think there isn’t a rotation from Anglophone to Francophone?

Afrowits:
Still having compression issues with that your big head. Ozemgbe big head. The Hippopotamus killed someone and the hippopotamus was later killed, the summary of it is that someone died and the hippopotamus died too.

Guy, you are doing damage control because I pointed out your dumbness. How is what you wrote up there related to your initial comment? I sure say na village school you go where illiterates dey teach una nonsense. Hopeless lazy youth like you

BoldBrainz:
After competence, the agreed rotational principle should be respected. African leaders will always want to cut corners around everything.

Who's better placed to further the prospects of the AfDB than the one who has already served as the Institution's Vice, garnering valuable experience in the process?!

That is not to say that as a Nigerian I have forgotten the recent disrespect these South Africans have paid us, but a deal is a deal.

Do you know that the Hott guy was also a Vice President there?

datola:
I did not know before South Africa is part of the AFDB

You must be a teenager. Or a very dull adult. Which kind yearns be that?

atiku4President:
We shall see who wins. I think every Nigerian should support whoever our very own son, Adesida is supporting. South Africa should not be allowed to smell that seat for obvious reasons. We know they don't value their women, therefore, for them to put forward a woman for the highly prestigious job of an AfDB president means they are taking Africa for ride.

So every Nigerian will now go and vote? Omo, dull people full here o

Afrowits:
So wetin I dey talk and wetin you dey interpret. Guy go work on your comprehension jare. YOU ARE A LAZY NIGERIA YOUTH. 😆

The fishermen were ordered to kill the same hippo because it killed the Emir’s aides. And you are stupidly making the comment below like they are not related occurrences.

I feel like wiping that your bald head with oraimo cord I swear. Hopeless lazy youth like you

Afrowits:
When you get home, please try to use your eye glass or eye google to read the story again.

Guy, you better go and ask the useless principal in your bush school wey you go to refund your money. Lazy youth like you!

The animal was killed on the order of the Governor and enforced by the Emir of Yauri, Zayyanu Abdullahi, after it was said to have killed one of the emir’s staff
