Nazgul:
Also Abach was the chief of Army staff during Gen Buhari's administration. And Abacha was the only person then who completed all the ranks as a Commissioned officer from 2nd lieutenant to General without skipping any rank.
Abacha was not Chief of Army Staff under Buhari. he was GOC 2nd Div Ibadan.

IBB was chief of army staff under Buhari

Richtaiwo:
From the picture, Abacha's rank isn't clear but it appears like an Eagle and a star, which is the rank of a liuetenant colonel. Also, he was not wearing red neck. But Diya was clearly a brig gen, with his red neck very conspicuous. Lastly, in the military, the senior ones are always at the front in any gathering. All these indicate Diya was superior to Abacha.

But how come Abacha became head of state and Diya was his superior agreed to be in Abacha cabinet and taking orders from him?
well done. I sense some tribalistic myopia in your post.

as at 1985, Abacha was the GOC of 2nd Div Ibadan. it was even clearly stated in the story.

since you know so much about military tradition, where have you seen a Lt. Col serving as GOC of 2nd Div Ibadan?

Romance › Re: “stop Getting Married In Your 20s, Make Enough Money First “- Lady Advises by lexy2014: 9:33pm On Mar 15, 2025
DyshApp:
A young lady who identifies as a Christian woman has advised her fellow women to make enough money and desist from getting married in their 20s

In the video she posted, Faithful Femininity advised Christian women to stay away from early marriage especially when they can’t cater for themselves.

The young lady advised Christian women in their 20s to desist from getting married when they make enough money.

Her words: “As a Christian woman, I have decided that my 20s are not for marriage. My 20s are to make money. Christian women stop entering into marriage so early.”

”Go and make money. You don’t have a dime in your account. God and find a way to make money. In 20s, in your 30s, go and make money. Stop following men around. Some of you are doing Hallelujah Challenge and wearing bridal gowns.


“Have you made money? Like, I will not enter a marriage without money. And I’m talking about multiple sources of steady income. I’m not that kind of Christian woman that will enter her husband’s house with nothing in her account. God forbid. My 20s now na to work hard. My 20s is to make wealth.”
I hope this lady will not use her 20s to drive men away and return to social media 10years from now crying that she is still single?

Kobojunkie:
This suggestion of yours goes against common knowledge at this point, which is that the vast majority of women who marry earlier are more likely to not only remain poor but also guarantee their children remain mired in the very same. What this means is that these supposed benefits of early marriage that you claim are only in the minds of those who subscribe to such opinions. undecided
where did you do your research to have arrived at this "common knowledge"?

“What pains me is that the government we supported and had confidence in would do well because we saw what Tinubu did in Lagos despite his challenges."

"We all know about his issues in Chicago, but we thought if he could replicate his work in Lagos for Nigeria, let’s support him. However, he failed.”
if Elrufai was made minister, would he be crying on a daily basis?

apart from cronyism, nepotism, propaganda, tribalism, taxes and godfatherism, what did tinubu achieve in Lagos that Elrufai was expecting tinubu to replicate that he has not replicated?

You are one of those roaming the internet complaining everyday of hunger, I know you already.
Look how you are trying to make it personal just to start an argument....

I don't need to tell you what businesses I do but I can assure you that I have been able to move with the times.
While you were here on Nairaland crying of hunger in the country, that was when some of us went deep into agriculture. I shot down my bakery at Agungi and someone bought it off with all the equipments the person is running it fine, I was making losses because I didn't have the hands to manage it, a mistake I didn't make with my farms, I made sure I got the right hands on the farms to get the results I need, I have consultants come in and external auditors also.
I know nothing about agricultural economics so I got someone.
Just as I ran my bakery aground because I didn't have the right hands so also many business are running aground due to poor managerial skills.

So young man this is not about me but a Nigerian thing.
I have cattle ranches now and I have Fulani guys in every ranch, nobody knows cows better than them...

Everyday I am talking with my people on how we change things up.

In Benue now we are planting sorghum, Benue stat government has started a brewery we would supply them. That's is thinking outside the box, we could continue planting rice, cassava, soya beans and castor beans but now we switch up and added another because the times are changing....

Stop roaming the forum looking for who to fight. I haven't said anything wrong about management.
Nigerians are generally poor at management and we don't change even when the business if failing we blame government and village people instead of going back to the drawing board and re-strategize
EXOUSIAng:
Business are also starting up.
Business shut down even in the best economic atmosphere.
People are shutting down bakeries and others are starting up bakeries.

It's all about management.
Same business same environment, one is increasing staff salary and another is folding up.
I am not saying the eco isn't tough.
The major problem is that the average Nigerian lacks managerial skills, no innovations, nothing, Nigerian business do the same thing year in year out even when the trend is changing and you will agree that the world is moving fast, many companies are shutting down because they are unable to keep up with the trend, they just blame the government for their inability to innovate.
If Nokia and Blackberry were Nigerian companies they would have blamed the government, they would never accept that they didn't move with the times.


So in summary. Businesses are actually shutting down because the owner refuse to think fast....

Toyota owns Lexus
Honda owns Acura.
The idea is that what ever kind of car you want from Luxury V12 to everyday 4plug engine they will take your money

Food is expensive but fast foods came up with "combo" and started selling rice and chicken for as low as N2500. While small restaurants are shutting down because they don't want to think out of the box.
which business have you started and managed were you applied these management skills you are accusing other nigerians of not having?

If married men think they can just bring in any woman into the home bc they are men and make her second wife, then women have the right to sue them for bigamy. Una think say na only Una dey cråzeeee . Bringing in another woman into your home to make her second wife is nothing but foolishness,,, if you're tired of your wife, send her home to her parents, then you can go ahead and marry all the women in the world
in the entire story, did you read anything about "sue"?
Crime › Re: Lagos Woman Gets Husband Arrested For Allegedly Taking Second Wife by lexy2014: 10:43am On Mar 15, 2025
When she got to the station, she met the first wife, who insisted that the man shouldn't be released because he needed to suffer. Imagine the authority!

"I called the DPO again to ask if she was aware that the second wife was there to bail her husband, but the first wife insisted he shouldn't be released. The DPO said, 'That does not concern me.'
first, when did getting arrested become the punishment for marrying a new wife?

second, how does the police say that it is not concerned about someone's bail?

This is a PDP Chieftain talking like a patriot and putting aside politics for overall interests of the country. Greedy and wicked Nigerians who love their pockets more than the country. Not only the transporters that are greedy, the food traders/retailers are even worse, while some are bringing down their prices, many others are holding on to the high prices. Some farmers are also lamenting the reduction in prices too. Infact, some wicked politicians are playing politics and ethnic card with the food price reduction. Where Elrufai and Buba Galadima are openly accusing the President of destroying the economy of the North for the reduction in food prices. And these ones are jumping from one party to another saying they want a change yet they are sad whenever things are getting etter. Are these people not wicked?, are they not greedy and foolish.
is tinubu any better than the people who you accuse of being greedy and loving their pockets?

where was he when telcom companies were increasing tariffs?

where was he when CBN gave banks the green light to charge customers for ATM withdrawals?

Post deleted. Jesus wept! You clearly copied and pasted.

You clearly don’t understand any of the concepts you posted. You clearly don’t know what PPP is or you wouldn’t have written what you just did.

I suggest you quit before you dig a grave for yourself. This matter is clearly above your pay grade.

If you are tempted to respond, I suggest you read about what PPP is and what it is intended to measure before you do.

To others when we say Nigeria has a GDP per capita (PPP) of approx $5,000, we are not saying the average Nigeria has an economic output of $5,000 not that he actually sees $5,000. What PPP measures is the output compared to the US economy.

I just realized I am responding to this serial eeeediot! I did not see your handle otherwise as you know I would not have responded to you.

Accidentally responded to an eeediot
sorry bro too late to delete.

since you understand the concepts I posted, you are very qualified to answer my questions but am surprised you could not. instead you were spilling your emotions.

the post you responded to is talking of purchasing power, you are talking of GDP.

what exactly have you said and how have you negated the post you responded to?

what is "GDP per capita (PPP)"?

The analysis was largely correct until the last paragraph. Nigeria’s GDP per capita (PPP) is actually higher than its nominal GDP per capita. The purpose of GDP per capita on a PPP basis is to give a true reflection of that economy as if citizens of that country lived in the US. On a PPP basis our GDP per capita is approx $5,000 pa. The problem is $5,000 p.a is extreme poverty in the US. So there is no disparity.
