1. Above what poverty standard in what Nigeria? Who set that standard by the way? You or someone else?

2. That is not true at all. If you scroll back to page #5, you will find where I actually provided details of my own experience living on a budget less than that myself.

abi u are the one that can't manage what you have if you can't leave on 200k salary per month in Nigeria. U want too be leaving baba olowo lifestyle abi...

Bcus even the international poverty line set by una USA is 2$ per day.. which is just 96,000 per month

1. I don't understand. Your intention was to argue knowledge of the poor and I proved to you that you have no clue what it means to be poor in the U.S.A. However, I do, and it is nothing to be equated to being poor in Nigeria. So, what are you arguing about again?

2. OK, I am poor but I still have better access than a Nigerian in Nigeria on middle-wage is what my argument has been from the start. So, why do I feel you are suddenly trying to make this about your ego even in your blatant ignorance of what it means to be on minimum wage in America?

You said earlier that you subsidize my living here in America, and I thank you for it since that goes even more to show you truly have no clue what living on minimum wage is, right?

the poorest of the poorest have access to free govt food in Nigeria in IDP Camp. Likewise the poorest of the poorest have access too Food Stamps(SNAP) etc in USA... is that the Access you are talking about

Kobojunkieee:
Prove? You can't prove what you don't know, is the thing.

The poverty line in the U.S.A. is not arbitrarily defined, mind you.

poverty get level
Some1 earning above 200k per month in Nigeria that's 125$ per month is above poverty standard in Nigeria..

But someone earning 1,200$ per month in USA about 2m naira is in stinking poverty

ivandragon:
Good God... what is wrong with you people?

Can't you people stay on topic? Dangote and the government are justifying an increase in pms and dangote is using Saudi Arabia as an example and doing conversions to dollars to support his position.

My point is that currency conversions across countries are misleading and analysis should be done on peculiarities of each country independent of the other.

So what is the issue?

If you want to convert SAR to dollar, then convert dollar to Naira, then convert Naira to SAR then conver SAR to Naira just to determine if fuel is more expensive in Saudi Arabia when compared to Nigeria, that is your headache please.

When you go to Saudi, you don't earn in Naira, so such comparisons are exercises in futility.

you where actually the one that changed topic bcus u found out that PMS is a little bit cheaper in Nigeria.... see abeg leave me, stop showing me shege online, the one Nigeria and Tinubu is showing me right now is enough

Kobojunkieee:
My first car in college was a car I bought for $500 which I bought at an auction. I drove it for approximately 3 years without problem and it served me well. I barely made $300 each month at that time but I saved up to buy that car since I needed one at the time. I had work and school, and there was no true bus system in the town at that time. 🤔

What part of that decision makes you think I had to have been a kid? 🤔

that is why I said only kid still eating mummy's food can do that na... when u r in college that u bought a car with barley making 300$, are you not eating mummy dash me

ivandragon:
1. Are there more public workers than there are private workers in Saudi Arabia? What is wrong in using the minimum wage applicable to majority of the population in a country? And I termed it 'average minimum wage is about...' so what's wrong with that?

2. The minimum wage of 70k I used for Nigeria in my write up, when was it increased? 1940 right?

3. If you don't understand analogy, then don't comment on things you don't understand. You expect me to start analysing rice, bread, cost of transportation in Saudi arabia for you when the topic was directly in relation to pms which I used accordingly? What stops you from doing your own analysis of the other goods and services in Saudi arabia and compare to Nigeria?

4. Where in my comment did I say the global economy is bleeding or not? It was a simple and straightforward analysis so that people like you are not deceived by all the talk about something being more expensive in another country and then start doing senseless analysis with conversions.

5. Read to understand so that you don't end up making comments that show a glaring absence of comphresion.

minimum wage in Saudi is better and more improved than Nigeria's own that's fact.... but u are thinking it's better for you bcus u r in Nigeria. If u interview Saudi resident today u will also hear them wail about their minimum wake not okay to sustain their expenses.

Kobojunkie:
Anyone can do it is the simple fact here! No need for the overcomplication of that which is simple.

any1 can do it, but it's not expected... why would any reasonable person thinks getting a car on 1,200 dollar earnings per month is an ideal plan. Only kids does that.. Are you 1?

Kobojunkie:
Says who? People on minimum wage can also save up to buy a car as well.

yes some1 earning minimum wages who does not have any other responsibilities, or some1 who is still leaving with his parents can actually save up all his money and get a car.. and also continue saving up to maintain the car.

ivandragon:
Hmm...

Most of these analysis that requires conversion from one currency to the other are often misleading and negate what truly matters, which is the purchasing power of the common man, primarily, the least paid workers.

A straightforward analogy which makes more sense is how much fuel can be bought with the minimum wage?

Also minimum wage that government
The average minimum monthly wage in Saudi Arabia is about 4000 SAR. PMS averages at about 2.3 SAR per litre. So 4000 SAR gets you about 1700 litres of PMS.

In nigeria, with minimum wage at N70000 and pms averaging N1000 per litre, your minimum wage gets you 70 litres of pms.

Case closed. Any other calculations or conversions are just exercises in futility because the purchasing power of the masses in any country is what matters most.


Look at USA. Average minimum monthly wage is about $1200. Average pms price is $1 per litre. So minimum wage in USA gets you about 1200 litres of pms.

good, but is the minimum wage meant to buy fuel alone,.. calculate other expenses too.... well some1 earning minimum wage any place in the word is not even expected too own a car

Also minimum wage Saudi Arabia government pays is 3,000 SAR. Which was actually increased to that 3,000 this 2024... try too read well and gove accurate fact so people who are trying to japa won't think every other countries is heaven..... The global economy is bleeding.

Usmanovic95:
Some people get mind sha, still vote for APC🙄. Some Nigerians don't deserve pity because they always deliberately inflict pain on themselves.

But the Gov of Ekiti State is APC. Come to Ekiti state and see the massive development in road network the man is doing

LandMann:
If PDP loses this election, EFCC and DSS must immediately put Obaseki on a tight watchlist.

Obaseki must not escape.

He must give account of his tenure as governor that saw Edo state dragged backwards to Lucky Igbinedion era

is Edo state backward?

fineboynl:
Umm. They are fighting over market control.

NNPC is afraid to let go of the market they once controlled. Bogus Subsidy claims and others monopolized benefits. On the other hands dangote doesn’t want government control as well.

If government sell very low to dangote we won’t be talking of subsidy scams anymore. There should be higher tax for petrol exports by special customs departments to ensure the subsidy is removed from the exported product.

govt sell crude oil very low seems u dey whine me.. the only commodity dey use in generating 80% Nigeria IGR. Make dem sell am 50% below world market price to fangote abi... una go just sit down for ous carry fone dey talk anything wey just enter una brain. Online economics..

There are people you don't touch kos you'll definitely hear from God or if they dare open their mouth against you it'll surely follow you. That's why I hardly curse anyone kos it'll follow the person like magnet

shut up jhur. Na people dey pressure the Guy. Wetin consign God..

Na bcus he is popular so the noise and condemnation is too much. Na today people don dey give alfa and pastors slap for preaching anyhow or making noise... even pastor and alfa dey throw blow and fight themselves wella

Kobicove:
This is obviously a skit...if you attempt to sell food like this by the roadside in the UK you will find yourself in prison!

Atiku Abubakar

if na too bribe electorates for election now, he go drop 50billion

Federal Govt want to continue subsidy through NNPC. Dey don't want to pay the subsidy directly to Dangote if not Dangote will become the richest man in the world within 2 years.....

Let FG start subsidy back abeg. Atleast fuel at 500naira/liter

Samunique:
For those Chelsea fans who think Enzo is useless, hope you see how uncoordinated Chelsea was today without him in the midfield.

Meanwhile, Noni Madueke needs to be talked to, the dude scored hatrick some days ago, all of a sudden, he starts feeling like he's the new Ronaldo and Messi in town by overdoing things. The dude needs to be calming down


Well done Blues !!!

if Enzo was in that game today, with that pressure Bournemouth played eith, either caicedo or Enzo would have committed an error that will lead to goal against chelsea... Chelsea would have lost if Enzo played

Madups:
Don't know how someone in his right senses will bench nkunku for one Senegalese idiot.

una don start. Na so una finish lukaku bcus of one good game havert had has a striker.... Nkuku is only good has a sub for that striking role...

That stupid pastor wey go portable bar go dey preach no see this oil marketers them for ground too go preach too abi

brain54:
If he sells internationally...

Economies of scale would be at play - Selling domestically allows Dangote to optimize logistics and reduce transportation costs.

That's what I meant by reduced profit margins!

no be still same govt go give am pass to sell international

Ojuntana:
If the man is truly a man of God, portable will live to regret this his action

seems u are a pastor or aspiring pastor, bcus u used the exact word pastors used... so if something happens too portable in the nearest u will say the man is true mam of Hod, if something did not happen then the mam is not a true man of God. Which is a win win situation na. Prophecy never fail, God never fails

9jvirgin:
This is an assault and the Police should get him arrested immediately. Violence against anyone should be condemned. This is the height of an open display of disregard and effrontery to law and order.

preaching in his bar can also be considered as am action that could cause public mayhem which his also against the law

But the story no add up. Ur father went to station to bring police, still follow the police carry the victim too the hospital... anyways, this one that u brought tribalism into it, are u trying to sort from help from only ur particular tribe?

Gadafii:

Salewa97:
The introduction of E10 fuel should be gradual.

The government should first create awareness about it, the advantages and disadvantages.

The government should also make sure that all vehicles that are on the road are compatible with the E10 fuel

lol. U forget when buhari bans importation of older cars into Nigeria?

elganzar:
