Steal a loaf of bread and we will know that you are hungry.

Steal a tuber of yam and we go know say hunger no good for body

What do you have to say about the sacks of gravel these children packed?
sell those, and you get the yams, the bread, some garri and pocket change too.

Don't forget the bit about poverty

PotatoSalad:
Poverty, think of it...most of these poor people don't know what family planning is, they have sex and breed kids like rats. Imagine a poor family of 10. So many things are wrong in Nigeria. Just imagine.
Right! And what have you done about it sir?
CrimeRe: Residents Steal Gravel From Road Construction That Is In Ongoing (Photos) by leroi01(m): 10:40am On Dec 31, 2017
As much as we all agree stealing is a crime.. well i must say they are criminals...

be that as it may, there are extenuating circumstances that might justify the act.. failed governance from the apex to grassroots.. a total lack of opportunities and viable options...plus the fact that poverty is a terrible thing & hunger is a great motivator.

So before you lash out in your comments... look at these people (again) and ask yourself if they got a fair or a raw deal.

Peace.

PoliticsRe: Presidency Lists 17 Major Achievements Of Buhari In 2017 by leroi01(m): 8:26pm On Dec 30, 2017
Brilliant rejoinder. Concise & well said. I shall follow you.



PapaBrowne:
Let me respond to all the 17 points listed.

1) This government brought us into the only recession we have ever experienced since 1985.
We the people of Nigeria brought ourselves out of the recession Buhari put us into with our usual dexterity and capacity to survive extreme conditions.

2) The Central Bank Governor knew what to do all along but Buhari was preventing him from doing the right thing by devaluation. As soon as Buhari got sick and went to London, the Governor presented his intervention program and passed it on to Osibanjo for approval. And that’s exactly what saved Nigeria. Buhari’s archaism is responsible for all the problems witnessed in the last 2 years.

3) Best stock market performance indeed. We were the worst performing last year.
Let me put it in perspective. Imagine in a class of 30 students, you carried 29th position last year with 10 over 100 as your score on the test. This year you now take 26th position with a score of 30 over hundred. Well, that’s an improvement when you are an olodo. But if you have been top ten in the class with scores above 70 over 100 for the last 10 years, you would definitely be hiding your face in shame.
Nigeria’s stock market cap grew this year but it was $80 billion in 2013 and has crashed down to $36 billion as at November 2017. There is nothing to celebrate. The stock market is 3 Times smaller than just 4 years ago.

4) When the price of Rice gets back to the N8500 it was in 2014, I will start to take them seriously. A rice revolution that jacked up the price by 100%. Hmmm. Something isn’t adding up.
Two questions: if we have increased local production, shouldn’t the price drop radically abi dollar affect the sand used for planting? Secondly, all I saw in the market this Christmas is imported rice. Where is all the local rice. I usually see them on newspapers but never in the market.

5) The Government is still talking about 4000 mw after lying to us that they achieved 6000 mw the other day. We haven’t moved an inch. There’s barely any improvement in supply. No new strategies to improve supply. 700 billion would go down the drain. Whereas Dangote alone is going to put up 12000Mw in Lagos within the next 2 years.

6) Paying pensioners is listed as an achievement!! That's a clear sign that there is nothing to list!!

7) The ease of doing business part is the only point that might backing. And clearly this all happened in the time Buhari was sick. Osibanjo took this seriously and some results started showing. As soon as Buhari came back, everything stopped. Again, this just goes to show that Buahri is the problem of Nigeria.


The rest of the things on the list are not worth the time. As only a shameless government would list such things in 2017 as achievements. That JAMB remitted more money is listed. Not how the money JAMB remitted has been used to improve the education system. That you have taken new loans, not what you used the loans to accomplish. That you are launching a tax amnesty scheme. Can you imagine? Its just pathetic.


If you notice, there is no talk of infrastructure development despite budgeting over N2.2 trillion for capital projects in 2017. That is a whooping $7 billion. That amount of money would build 1000km of brand new 6 lane expressway @ $7million per kilometer which is very expensive.
Or better still, the Abuja-Kaduna railway is 200km and cost about $874 million. With the capital budget for 2017, we would have built an additional 900km of the Abuja Kaduna type rail across the country.


But nothing. Absolutely nothing is anywhere on ground so they come up with a terrible list of achievements for the unintelligent zombies to dance to.

So Buhari can be worried.

Buhari will soon be crying like these men who lost theirs in his hands.

FamilyRe: What's The Craziest Thing Your Kid Or Baby Relation Has Done? by leroi01(m):
My nephew 5yrs came into my room, i was getting work done on my laptop... so the li'l G came in and went: lets watch cartoon ..i said NO, he got on the bed jumped and jumped till i was madly distracted ,then he asked again. Now this chap is a superhero nut, so i hit him with Justice league doom. Immediately it started, he focused and ignored me. .
Then Bam! NEPA struck. So sharply i wanted to switch to power saving mode. As i said : Ponatti let me quickly... this bugger gives me a look that c ould totally kill and tells me in this deadly tone: shut up.
I got confused.. ehn? Emi ? What the? (All in my head).. so i tried again..Ovipopo let me quickly... He looked at me , pointed at the door and said OUT!

THE CHILLING AND FUNNY THING WAS.. HE DID ALL THESE EXACTLY HOW I DO TO HIM..WHEN I DON'T HAVE HIS TIME.
