The biggest treat to democracy today in Nigeria are the governors and not the presidency as most of us have been brain washed to believe. For a start do you as a resident of your state know how much comes into your state and how it is spent?

In addition to their Federal Allocation and IGRs, they have crippled the LGAs, pocketing their monthly allocations in the process.

Giving them state police is empowering them to continue the criminality.

Accountability first...

Nigerian oil firms to be required to supply 483,000 bpd to local refineries

LAGOS, Dec 29 (Reuters) - Nigerian oil producers will be required to supply 483,000 barrels per day (bpd) to local refineries in the first six months of 2024, new regulations showed on Friday, as Africa's largest oil exporter seeks to guarantee supplies for local refining.

The Dangote oil refinery and at least three government-run refineries are among local refineries that are expected to begin operations in 2024.

The 650,000-barrel-per-day Dangote refinery will receive the biggest volume of 325,000 bpd, according to newly published Domestic Crude Supply Obligation guidelines from the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC).

NUPRC data showed that six refineries were expected to be operational from 2024, with total refining capacity of 864,500 bpd, meaning that oil producers would be required to supply just over half of the crude requirements.

A Petroleum Industry Act passed in 2021 introduced a requirement for oil producers in Nigeria to supply part of their crude to domestic refineries so they are not starved of crude supplies, but this has yet to be enforced.

NUPRC said the refineries would pay global market prices for the crude.

A total of 48 oil producers, including majors TotalEnergies (TTEF.PA), Chevron (CVX.N), Shell and ExxonMobil (XOM.N) will participate in the programme, and production is to come mostly from their joint venture operations with Nigerian state oil firm, the NNPCL participates.

Like I said in one of my response yesterday, the country is in a very precarious situation when the issue of leadership pops up. It does not matter what side of the political divide we find ourselves right now, the tomorrow of the country is not looking bright.

The question begging for our attention is: 'What's the way forward?'

The current system is skewed against the common man and it will remain so for a long time to come.

For once let's ask ourselves the question: Where is the complete financial report of the campaign this woman said she was going to release immediately the Supreme Court gives her verdict?

See eh... Most of the opposition leaders are even worse if not out rightly worse than those in power. She has seen an office and she will ultimately make use of it as long as there are gullible supporters out there. Indeed! Nigeria's hope of a better tomorrow is not looking good if these are the best character that opposition can present as leaders.

Even if there was to be an outright 'revolution' like Sowere is calling for, who are those to be trusted with the baton?

Odewaleadesoye:
Aisha Yesufu, a rights activist, has vowed to continue supporting the presidential ambition of Labour Party, LP, candidate Peter Obi.

Yesufu said she would never support Obi to be the Imam of a mosque but to be Nigeria’s president.

She noted that Obi is the candidate who can wrestle Nigeria from those willing to keep the country down.

DAILY POST

The real problem of Nigeria's democracy are the governors. The day you know this, you will know peace. I so submit...

To say you are 100% correct is stating the obvious.

Permit me to add a twist to your conviction. For me personally, no offense intended anyways. I believe that what Peter Obi and his gang seems to be doing was perfectly summarized by Lamidi Apapa faction in one of their press release recently. Where they claimed that PO and his gang are committing high level fraud with this court case. This was stylishly backed up by Aisha Yesufu, when she said they will not release the financial report of the campaign till SC delivers judgement.

Guys, something is obviously fishing but as usual, their follows will always turn a blind eye at their activities and illegalities.

When a man has paid his dues, he deserves elevation... You played your card diligently and smartly during the last election cycle.

I hope you will not forget the suffering masses in your exalted office like you did overseeing NDDC?

Good one! This was exactly what I analysed for some of these political neophyte but they refused to understand nor accord appropriate respect to Jagaban.

The truth is that his 'Emilokan' slogan was not a fuse but a well thought out representation of his political chronicles for the presidency.

He earned my respect the day I realized that he was far ahead of his detractors.

He was humble, strategic, ready to lose today for the greater good of tomorrow (did you remember how Oshiomhole was treated as national chairman after delivering Buhari?) and in all, he had his eyes on the goal(to become a president).

I think rather than this backlash and hatred from some youth, they should start learning some of his steps as guide to rise politically.

Asiwaju as governor of Lagos gave every tribe in Lagos a level playing field irrespective of your religious and tribal leaning.

Congratulations, His Excellency, President-Elect Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (Nigeria's latest GCFR) - May your tenure bring peace, prosperity and progress to Nigeria and Nigerians notwithstanding their political affiliation, Religion or Region of Origin/Resident.

Emilokan, Awa lokan,...

Congratulations

Where did you vote if you even voted. You can check irev for the result of your polling unit. If it's different from what was declared, contact your party they will pick it up from there.

Stop supporting war mongers... Please...

Massiveglory:
What is happening right now is a monumental fraud on democracy in our Nation .

It cannot stand. It will not stand.

This is 2023 not 1999 or 2007.
A tinubu presidency on the foundation of this fraud is an end to democracy in Nigeria.

For the sake of the unity of our nation, the election should be declared inconclusive.

Until the foundation of fairness is rectified, there should be no declared winner.
Anything apart from this is preparing the nation for lawlessness and anarchy.

I have said it a couple of times that the emotional position of the LP and PDP will cause more harm than good to Nigeria and Nigerians.

There is a difference between results collation (which is currently ongoing at ICC) and results announcement (as stipulated in the electoral act).

While SDM and his cohorts were displaying their ignorance yesterday, I told some friends that INEC will do the right thing, let's give them the benefit of doubt. Now, check most of the results uploaded thus far, they clearly exonerate the commission (INEC) of any wrongdoings.

Obasanjo has allowed himself to be dragged into partisan politics again, I don't know why he keeps dropping the little honour and goodwill he currently enjoys via the magnanimity of kind hearted Nigerians.

Fellow Nigerians, let's give the process the chance to run its full course and if the uploaded results from your unit is different from what is on the irev portal, contact your political party and let them present such at the tribunal.

Nigeria youth, please don't listen to war mongers, they have the resources to 'japa' at the first sight or odour of crisis, leaving you to suffer untold hardship.

Nigeria shall be great...

Hmm, if they have ears at all o. Congratulations to Asiwaju - the president elect. But wetin make Lp and PDP agent run sef. Victory is sweet.

Emilokan! Congratulations sir...

Congratulations! Emilokan...

Abeg not vex, just copy and paste where e for talk so make we understand u better.

The CBN law is quite straight forward on this issue, lawyers be won use am take get SAN. Find the CBN act read u go know why bro.

kaeycea:
He has already made a press conference after his last meeting with Buhari at the Aso Villa and addressed the issue before his appearance at the lower chambers todays.

Honestly!

He is called Jagaban for a reason. He was the only presidential candidate that questioned the status quo - the masses should note this.

Na only him stand up for the suffering masses when all the rest dey play 'snake in the monkey shadow'.

Feb 25th is not far.


A vote for Jagaban is a vote for liberation... Mark my words here.

Where you for read this one again. Una mata dey tire person.

kaeycea:
Bank can accept it for a period of 7 days after Feb 10th.
What that means is that an additional 7 days for any one who fails to meet Feb 10th deadline when it ceases to be a legal tender is already provided.
After Feb 17th, no bank can accept it anymore

WOW! This is the most sensible, non bias and intelligent analysis that I have read on Nairaland for a long time now.

Thanks alot.


He that have ears let them hear ooooo.

jumper524:
All these one sided make way news.

The reality on ground is that here in Abuja when bank choke everywhere. People are relieved by the extension.
I wonder how states like kogi, kwara and all those state when robbers Don pursue bank go take cope.
POS operators and other business that weren't willing to risk it were stale yesterday. They had very few patronage cos even those that have it were not willing to spend it yet.
To those Dull brains who think this policy affects politicians, those mumus should think Again.

Didn't you observe how big men were packing tons of new cash from banks easily while you que at the Atm?
Those big men and politicians are the first holders of this new cash.
Bank managers are cashing out big on them, they'll sell 70% to the elites and leave you the plenty massed to struggle for 30% assume this extension didn't happen and people become more stranded till election period, vote buying would be much cheaper and easier cos scarcity of money brings value.

Hi,

How can someone track his visa application status?

Like Yahaya Bello. Disaster! Lol!

Stop using age as your main criteria for making your choice please. The truth is that Nigeria is in a dilemma - how many honest, corrupt free, upright, e.t.c Nigerians can comfortably afford our average presidential campaign fund?

Without mincing words Nigeria requires an urgent surgical procedure done as soon as possible but how this would be done remains the huge question.

Benesis:
Funny thing is.
Buhari is 80years Old.
Atiku is 76 years Old.
Tinubu is 70years old
Osibanjo is 65years old.
Peter Obi is 61years old..


Can we do away with all these old men.
The bible sets 60years for people to die and 70 for those who are strong... Lets have 40-50 year olds, not someone campaigning for an old man attacking another person campaignibg for another old man.

That means Toyota Camry 2002 Nigeria used would be almost 2m now o. This Corolla is really the crave of the day.

uncleck:
A friend gave me the task of getting a Tokumbo Corolla for him and I have been on it for few weeks now. In this assignment I've come to realize that Corolla is now more expensive than the following vehicles:

Toyota Camry
Toyota Highlander
Acura MDX
Nissan Pathfinder
Honda Accord
Etc

It's just crazy!!! How can I pay over 3 million naira for a 2003 Corolla? How? I've told him I won't continue in the quest unless he makes another choice.

But why are people so in love with Corolla? I know that the car is strong and reliable, but it's definitely not the only strong and reliable car out there. When we were still in school, whether you scored 70% or 100%, it is "A". So if Toyota Corolla is good at 100%, there are still others that are good at 90%; both are good.

In place of Corolla, we still have Honda Civic, Mazda3, Hyundai Elantra, Kia Forte, Nissan Sentra, Camry, accord etc. They may not be as good as Corolla, but they are definitely not too bad. My opinion

Hi,

I want to thank this platform for the education and guidance I have received here.

I did my biometrics this week. While uploading my documents I left out my name authentication affidavit. For the record, my NECO certificate carries three names while others are only two names. I hope this wouldn't affect me?

@Justwise and other seniors

Hello,

My POF will mature by next week and I intend to apply this week in order to secure a favourable date next week for my biometrics. I need advise on the best approach to proceed:

1. Should I opt for assisted service, if I do in what format should my documents be in (mind you I have most of my documents in PDF file)? - I am not unaware of the extra cost of this option.

2. Can I also apply, pay my IHS and VISA fee but wait for my POF next before uploading all documents.

Please, help me out with this, guru in the house.

Hi,

Has anyone be debited for form A this week?

Do you have another May/June offer? You might start considering such likewise.

SerendipityHere:

bali233:
No provision for that on the form. Once you upload the paper that contains your payment details from your school, your bank will automatically get your student Id no from there.

Hi,

For those who have used E-form A, at what point did you enter your student ID number?

Hi gurus in the house,

Has anyone been able to change their route (either from with placement or vise versa) after receiving unconditional offer? University of Northampton precisely.
