This APC government have no sense. You devalue you currency to almost #1770 to a,$ollar They have to increase their prices so as to cover their cost of production. That is common economics. What did u want them to do? to produce and sale at a loss?.

no. If you read the post you will see the main issue is that the disparity between the factory price and the marker price is very much

The house is like those five star hospital in the USA...

The 8 years for the south will be shared. Four years for the southwest, four years fir the south south.. are the east part of south?

Ha
Let me explain in another way:

If January salary is paid on February 15, and February salary is paid on march 15 and march salary is paid on April 15.

From January 1 to Feb 15 = 46days
From Feb 15 to March 15 = 29days
From March 15 to April 15 = 31days
From April 15 to May 15 = 30days

As you can see the only time you get to suffer is the first time, after that as long as the salary comes regularly it's essentially the same 30days from one payment to the next.

And again, I'm not trying to defend salary delays, it should be discouraged and avoided by all means.

now let's say u want to quit the job after receiving ur salary of May. U will have too wrk 15days more right. Bcus I know some employer won't pay ur salary if you stop work before receiving payment

Reno Omokri don post another one.

With all his half-baked financial analysis.

Half-education is proving to be worse than none.




My point exactly. That was gibberish.

If it was all about that, the Japanese Yen would be a very strong currency.

Or you mean to tell me the UK produces far more than the US?

Or that Benin Republic now produces far more than Nigeria?

He is just being clownish with all that trash analysis.

Until the unbridled looting by Government officials is controlled, there is nothing anyone can do. And I don't see APC doing anything to stop it. It's a party policy.

Meanwhile the goat can keep up with his misinformation. He will post on Twitter and then repost on NL as adamusuleiman2.

Vietnamese dong to dollar is how much self, can you check for me?... can you pls check the rate of South Korea Won that produces all our Samsung and iphone to the dollar for me. Pls. My Google is not working

BarrNosaEsq:
Look at this he-goat. How can we buy local when almost everything we consume is foreign? Did Nigerians see cheap local coke to drink but chose to go for original foreign Coca Cola? Do we not buy golden penny spag? The only reason why some of us still eat foreign rice is simply because its just #50 difference from Local. If local was cheaper, we for abandon foreign rice. So please ask Mr Fayose the idiot what he expects Nigerians to do when almost everything we cook soup with is local and they're just as expensive!

but Coke is produced in Nigeria na, abi shey Nigerians have started importing coke too ni bcus I don't understand this your comment...

But that local rice of a thing farmer that produce local rice in Nigeria, even some that received grant and fertiliserfrom government will still tell you dollar affected the price of the rice. Tinubu amd govt be incompetent self wey dem no fit regulate prices of goods for the country

Its a good buy. Here in Lagos the women will be shouting," I got a basket of tomatoes 38k bla bla.. we don't know if they are saying the truth.

5 pieces of tomatos is 200 naira. They are ripping us in this Lagos. Better to even be buying in bulk but for singles like us, it will get spoilt if not used up on time. That is why we keep buying the quantity we can easily use up while it's still fresh. Nigeria epileptic power supply is not friendly with perishable foods.

Your wife is a lucky woman.
God please give me this kind of caring husband who knows it's his duty to cater for his family in Jesus name I pray.

RoadMozart:
Depends on the model you need. Honda eod/dc, benz c180, c200. Honda civic sef dey.

my honda civic 2007 was 3.2m 2022 when fuel was still 180 and dollar 700. Only God know how much the car will be worth now if I wanted to buy in today

Hmmm. The road that lead to Ado-Ekiti LGA comes to mind.

It not so, there are some kids that are intelligent that needs to be enrolled in school as soon as possible...

My daughter got enrolled at 1 and half years, she was even the best in her class, because she was way intelligent, and school needs to start setting in, if not she might loose the intelligent nature to something else of not quickly nurtured...

She's 3years old and in KG2 now and she's currently leading her class

ok. Ur kid is more intelligent than those oyinbo kid that started school 4 -5 years, oh. I guess those oyinbo kid lose the intelligent nature to something else for not nurturing them quickly. I don't know o

Flames000:


But bros is his finance and what he is doing to make money the Bone of Contention?? I’m asking for a friend.

oh. He ask for advice right, and the advice is based on his finances right?

So for him to get a solid advice, he need to come clean on his finances. For me building a 2 three bedroom duplex on net earnings of 84milloin naira in 7 years is not feasible.

Things like what are the side hustle he is into, are the side hustle have long term security. Any other business aside his 12millon naira net worth per year. Etc

RETURNOFENDSARS:
I'm a lawyer, called in 2016. I'm married with a kid and I'm in my early 30s. My wife is not working, so I have been the one shouldering the responsibility, despite that, God has given me my own house. Three bedrooms flat in front and three bedrooms flat at the back, all with full pop, water heater, full tiles, in fact all the modern facilities.
In all honesty I made between 600k-1.5m per month.

Just of recent, the zeal to Japa to Canada has been on my mind through school route. I currently have like 7m in my account and I know I could raise it till 15m before the end of the year. The cost of schooling keep giving me issue. How will someone travel abroad and spend over 15m when I could used the money to buy hostel from people who desperately needs money or invest in real estate.

Another concern of mine is that the future of legal profession is reducing because of the amount clients are paying particularly in the area of agreement and other things.

Definitely, I won't be selling the house if I decide to relocate, the rent from the two flats will go to my mom and the least could only be 500k per year. I won't have issues sending money at home.

Please, I really need advice from lawyers that are there, how do you cope migrating. Is it advisable I leave, if yes, what are the first things I might encounter, if am relocating it will be with my family. I just don't want to regret relocating. The exchange rate is just too much

your story of having 2 3bedroom bungalow and 7m savings using your salary does not add up.

Assuming you are earning averagely 1m per month from 2016 that you where called, ur total net worth after seven years will be 84m only. So with 84m you could cater for your family needs, extended family needs, build two bungalows I guess in a large and fenced compound, I know you will definitely have some landed properties also....

What are you doing that's earning you money aside ur basic salary in Nigeria. Bcus with the current rise in inflation, infact from the buhari regime, 84m naira in 7 years is a very small amount. Talking from experience.

This is a wrong thing to say. In a sane country, there should be 24/7 power supply. Other African countries have achieved same.

What's going to be bloody?

You think soldiers have monopoly of violence?
The good thing is they're both trained gun users and they both have guns. Na who go die go die.

The only reason why people fear soldiers is because of the gun they carry and because they can easily gather themselves in large numbers to harras people. One-on-one, most average people will beat soldiers black and blue in a combat.

ehn ehn. Road safety with Gun ke

Continued....

One Saturday, me and another neighbour just came out from our compound, only to be hearing shout from those boys that "we can't do them anything, that we don't have the right to tell them not to stand at the front of our gate, that if we do anyhow, we go see anyhow". We just neglected them and went away.
Later on, I learnt that our caretaker warned the mother to tell her daughter not to be standing at the front of the compound with those guys. So obviously, the girl went and told the guys about it that's why they were raking.

On the on Friday, 22 Dec, I came back home to hear the news that the girl have been arrested in connection to a stolen item and even though the item have been found, it was found in a bad state and the owner is insisting that they pay him for damages before he can withdraw his case. Police are saying that they can only release the girl if we pay the owner the money his requesting for,as the boys claimed the item spoilt at the girls hand, but for the boys, they will be charged for breaking into someone's residence to steal an item.

Now the mother have been begging us to help her raise money to pay the owner of the item as she doesn't have enough. But our caretaker is saying that none of us should donate a penny to her.

I just feel as though we should help her, but all the other neighbours are buying the idea of the caretaker that we should stay out of the case.

God knows I love this type of rest of mind I'm personally having since we moved into our house and I insist on not building any space for tenant in our compound. Only my family and I

FeliciaOja:
How can someone lock door refuse to talk or eat his food just because of a football match??
Even threaten to throw padlock at me for disturbing him because his team lost
I'm done!! Can't be dealing with a child that calls himself a man. Very childish attitude

no lie. If u can break up bcus of this, u self u no love am bdat. Make men hustle o so woman no go dey think to break up relationships bcus of mere situation.

I wonder what kids are doing in a relationships

FeliciaOja:
I meet him July this year, everything about him is cool. My only worry is his fanatical support for arsenal which I consider the worst club on earth.

He keeps disturbing me of how his club will win the league, but whenever they lose he becomes super depressed and aggressive.

We have talked about this many times and he has sworn to change.
But this night he came back very late and was making so much noise, shouting and yelling
Then I googled scores and saw that his club lost today

I can't take it anymore
He is not the first guy I have dated that loved football. His own is that when his club loss it affects him very bad.

I have even suggested he should stop supporting arsenal but he won't listen.
After this night rubbish he just displayed I'm thinking of calling it quits.

Am I overreacting??

just support arsenal too. So anytime arsenal lose a match and he his ranting, u self you will rant too. Simply

Barristter07:


Succinct! The problem is not Ola , people are just trying to create an issue where there is none, perhaps people should remember that so far we have Nigerians who are ready to buy at the inflated price for some personal reasons some of which is to Show off and Brag about their status, this issue will continue.

There are some Properties in areas like Lekki and Banana Island that are over inflated but people still buy because it's a status symbol. This set of people don't care about actual worth, so far they can use it to get validation, that's all that matters

lol. They will say the one sold for 5m dollar is aba made/fake. The one advertised by Ola for 16m dollar 18billon naira is the original.

bassdow:
Know a couple of Yoruba wives who have done this. No being tribalistic, just that all of them wey I know na Yoruba.

Guess they wanna play safe should their man marries another woman as is prevailent among Yoruba Men.

As for how I got to know, people mostly trust me enough to open up to me.

And when they know You're the sort who don't spread information (me dey forget our discuss as you dey talk am, hence you never would hhear it elsewhere except it's from you) about, then they don't have issues doing AMEBO with you.

As for mua, I give listening ear, afterall, AMEBO sweet especially when no be you be the subject

if people could be discussing Amebo with you. It makes me think what kind of live you are leaving and the area you live... is it me that is staying alone with my family in my compound will see someone to do amebo with. Or otedola that is staying in his big mansion/Estate will be doing amebo

Compliments of the season people. ✨✨✨
Christmas is here again, and we all know it's a season to give, receive, enjoy and make merry with family, friends and acquaintances.

Yeah, we all know things have been somehow, but anyhow, we must find a way to celebrate and enjoy Christmas, right?

It has not been easy surviving the present day Nigeria, we know, but we survived up till now, right? 🤷🏽‍♀️
So, we deserve to give ourselves some treat, no matter how small.
Take this as a reminder to reward yourself.
No excuses o! 😌

Even if you have to wash cars or do people's laundry to earn small money to give yourself a treat this festive season, do it o.
No dulling. 👀

I don't want to read nkenwa kinikan stories O! 🧐

So, what are you getting for yourself this Christmas?🙂

Pictures source: Google

nothing. I just shared 200k I budgeted for outing with my wife and son this festive season to people 20k each... I was just thinking since the money is meant for this specified things why not shared it to people who are more in need and we stay at home. There will always be another day to celebrate with my family. It doesn't have to be Xmas or new year.

Meerahbel:
O ti lo abeg! I don try. Once they make payment in December 31(I am praying it should not exceed that date) I will just log out.

- It's mentally draining
- No structure
- You practically begging for things to be done or approved
- You are under pressure because of ineptitude of your boss and colleagues
- You get home and you still working,
- No thank you, bonus, 13month or even an oil
- And most annoying, you have an inexperience HR who practically does nothing yet have an two assistant.

people are wicked o. Even me that does not have a company yet, I do pay my few workers salaries on 31st of every month. But this December I have have paid my workers salary already yesterday. If you know pay them how them go use jolly this period of jolly na. People ehn

Building ur own place secretly is one thing ...

pretending to be broke, building ur own house and telling ur folks to give ur money is another thing ....That's exploitation of family ties and the church mind ur family members naturally have towards u..... It's wickedness.

I'm not supporting the fact that u guys are not informed about her building her ous. But you know building a house can really make someone very broke. Don't forget that money spent can never be in your account again

Proof of ownership is a latest development. It is about 1k and yearly.
Police clearance is new digital central motor registry, about 5 to 6k but not yearly.
From a WhatsApp page
Nigerian Police is at it again. This time around is what they call Police Central Motor Registry Information System (CMRIS). It costs 5k and it is yearly thing (was introduced by Tinubu). A friend and colleague of mine parted with 40k for not having it when he was stopped at police check point on a highway somewhere in the Southeast. They collected the 40k with abeg. Something that would have been done with not more than 6k. If you have not done yours, it takes about 20 minutes to do it online with the following information, your NIN, email address, phone number, vehicle registration number, the chassis number, the engine number, the vehicle colour, year of manufacture, model, make of the vehicle etc. Just go to NPF CMRIS https://cmris.npf.gov.ng/
follow the instructions to create a profile and make payment. The certificate will be sent to the email you provided. Then go to a business centre and print out a copy shikena.
The breakdown of the cost is as follows: Fee – N5,000.00, VAT – N375.00, bank charges - N190.00, printing about N200.00, total cost about N6,000.00. The beauty of it is that you can do it at the comfort of your home any time any day. Don’t fall a victim and spend unnecessarily with abeg. Do it now or meet someone who can do it to help you out. If you go to licensing office or police stations to do it, they collect as much as between 15k to 20k. Where Police demand for this is where they know that you do not have a choice (very lonely place and they know that you are at their mercy) other than to part with your hard-earned money. If you claim ignorance, they have a copy to show you there. They no dey smile o. Tell others cos information is power and many people are not aware of this and are falling victim every day.

why not create ur own thread so everybody will see it

jechona:
I was trapped by some police women today at mile one, Port Harcourt and they said my proof of ownership and police clearance has to be renewed so I called my FIRS agent to get update and she said;

Police clearance ..... 15k
Insurance .....15k
Road worthiness, MOT and proof of ownership .... 12.5k
Vehicle licence ... 3k


Total... 45.5k

And I was like wdf? Just to renew one car? Its like Tinubu is out to kill us. Please how much is it currently in your state?

u only need police clearance for the first registration. Police clearance does not need renewal

Bede2u:
To be honest, I try to avoid people like you as a friend. People who believe that wanting them to treat you as good as you have treated them is 'entitlement'. If people treat you badly so that tomorrow they won't feel any entitlement from you, that is when you will understand how counter-productive this mindset is.

lol. Why should you then beat or sack your employee for misconduct and stealing since you are paying them very good.

LilMissFavvy:
You have absolutely no right to know everything about your friend, and the fact that he didn't tell you does not mean he is a bad friend. If he is a bad friend he would have hurt you one way or the other in the past and wouldn't even invite you to his house opening.

Friendship is in categories. He may not have considered you as a very close friend, but sees you as just a friend. Or he may have felt that his building plans was something which only his close family members should know

then why broadcast it to the world after completion through his status since its only meant for his close family to know

Jones90:


I understand where you are coming from, but you know it takes some months to build a house and during these periods of time, the acclaimed friend of the OP would have been dining and wining with the OP without telling him that he's building a house. He intentionally kept it secret from the OP.

Personally I don't see any sense in it. Telling the OP will not stop him from building his house, why then keep it a secret from him?

he sees the op as among the bad belle people na.

DamnnNiggarr:
Do police have the jurisdiction to demand nor ask for driver's license?

I was highly frustrated today, while I was on my way rushing to an event to meet up with the 10:00 AM deadline for the event which I was also the chairman, a group of some fiercely-looking police officers flagged down my vehicle and I slowed down.

One of the officers came towards my vehicle, ordered me to come out from the car and started demanding for my driver's license. I was like, what is going on?

In as much as I am aware that police officers have taken it upon themselves to be asking people for their vehicle particulars, which is a good way of tracking stolen cars, they asked for it and I provided it, but asking people for their driver's license is what I think is out of the picture.

I tried to exercise my right as a citizen of the Federal Republic of Nigeria by briefly dragging it with them initially, which I think this issue of police asking for driver's license had raised dust sometime ago, but I realized that I'm still in Nigeria, last last, I settled with 5k, this is with abeg o, after several hours and minutes had gone by, I arrived the event place by 01:15 PM, an event slated for 10:00 AM.

like I said earlier, asking for car particulars from people by the police is good, but asking for driver's license is where I think the issue lies. I thought anything that has to do with checking of drivers license is strictly under the jurisdiction of the FRSC?

I'm feeling nothing but anger and cheated which gave rise to many questions going through my mind;
Who gave the police officers the jurisdiction to be asking for driver's license?
Is there any amended law(s) that granted the police force that power?

driving without a driver licence is an offence that attract some years or month in Kiri Kiri. Or impound of ur vehicle if you can't provide the licence within 24hrs U don't know abi

Jbleenk:
Is it me or things have gone wild in Nigeria?

Traveled to Ado Ekiti to visit my dad, decided to branch a super market in Ado thinking things will be considerably cheap than it is in Lagos.

I ended up spending 75k in buying just a handful of stuffs. I was gutted. How are people surviving in Nigeria?
