Point of correction, Nigeria is not hellfire, I should be there next week to enjoy my life

"to enjoy your life" or to relocate permanently?

after enjoying your life, what next?

Nnamdipapa:
Ok, today I was out to do an oil change and decided to branch by my favorite Afghani store where I usually buy provisions when in the vicinity. Now, I came across an organic crate of egg for $16.99, 30 medium sized eggs in a crate.
Now, I remembered I spoke with a friend in Lagos last week who priced a similar crate of egg at 6000Naira, Yes ! you heard me right! 6000Naira! Folks in Nigeria do not know how good they have it Living in Nigeria so next time you complain about Nigeria, remember a fresh organic crate of egg goes for N6000 and things are way cheaper in Nigeria compared to the western countries.

So, there is something that should make one happy living in Nigeria
I am waiting on pins and needles for the minimum wage crew.

if you say living in nigeria is so good and "things are way cheaper in Nigeria compared to the western countries", what are you doing in a western country?

why have u not relocated back to Nigeria ASAP?

The separation from leaders and dealers is in their thinking faculties.

If I have money, and I can approach an entity that would give me a loan at low interest to execute a project that can pay off the loan, what would I do? Spend my own money I can use as insurance for future unforseen events or take the loan where I can always have a moratorium or negotiate terms of settlement that both the creditor and myself can benefit from?

A dealer will use up his savings because of immediate gains and populism, while a leader will take the loan. Did Dangote spend his personal funds to build a refinery? From your thinking, he could have liquidated his worth to build a refinery.

That would be the thinking of a trader.

Holding reserves and assets is for future unforseen circumstances. For example, during financial meltdown in 2008, Nigeria was partly insulated because we had strong buffers. One of the reasons, apart from oil inflows, was robust financial reserves, and CBN pumping money into the economy. Because they had the money to do so.

Are you aware that there were forward sales of crude oil by the Buhari administration? Tinubu cannot complain because it was an APC administration. The forward sales mean future oil production had been mortgaged. I think Tinubu has handled the economy responsibly given the challenges.

You can dislike him, but do not detest his efforts towards ensuring the country is a better place for all of us and our children.

The alternative to Tinubu have backtracked and have not come up with the strategy to deal with the challenges.

They do not have.

how has tinubu demonstrated his leadership and used "his efforts towards ensuring the country is a better place" in successfully tackling corruption, nepotism, cronyism, hunger, unemployment, hardship, poverty, inflation, wasteful government spending, budget padding, insecurity, bad governance, failing public infrastructure, poor medial services and falling standard of education?

Emvicprints1:
when they buy and get to the train station that's when they would tell them the train is bad.

That is not what I asked you.

In response to my claim that the train is bad and undergoing repairs, you said

Emvicprints1:

If that is the case, The people buying tickets, which train are they using the ticket to enter?

tunde1200:
Some of them are from village oh
They don't know anything about government and how it runs lol 😂🤣

What is wrong with being from village?

Do you not have a village you and your ancestors come from?

Since you know everything about government, can you please share all you know about government regarding the topic?

tunde1200:
Amin oh
So many no want him to return back to Nigeria's e.g Obiedence people..!

Is he not supposed to return to Nigeria?

Is he stationed abroad?

Of what values are his travels to Nigeria and Nigerians?

Emvicprints1:
no information on websites. The sites still allows sales of tickets.

The people buying tickets, which train are they using the ticket to enter?

JONSYN7154:
I'm neither ma.

Go to this major cities and towns you'll understand what am saying.
It's the rich people who bring their children.

Which major towns and cities should she go to?

So once you just enter these major towns and cities, you will immediately see parents taking their kids for anti pregnancy implants?

We all are corrupt and always look for proceeds from wrong happening.

Who are the "we" that are all corrupt?

what of the $14b investment tinubu "secured" from Indian investors?

where is it?

Softmirror:
Nigeria wasn't interested in that 4x4 booth. Nigeria's goal is far beyond that.

Who paid for the booth and why was it paid for?

What is Nigeria's goal?

Softmirror:
The escalation of the booth brouhaha was unnecessary. Why do we always focus on trivialities.

Obi should have focused on how to have people who will stand as party agents for him during elections. He had empty representations across the country who could have stood as witnesses and could have defended his votes as party agents during elections.

is it obi that exposed the issue of empty booth?

how come you have left the person who exposed the empty booth and made obi the focus?

SmartPolician:
Mr. Bola Tinubu shouldn't listen to these criminals. Sell that refinery to private players and tell us what you are doing with the proceeds (that's why I have a problem with that man - he has no business with accountability).

This new NNPC GMD will get him to spend billions of dollars on their turnaround maintenance, pocket most of the money and yet the refineries won't work. We have seen this episode several times.

which Mr. Bola tinubu are you referring to?

ElSudani:
What exactly did you ask me? Can you say it again?

what have you been responsding to?

if the booth stand was not needed, why pay for it?

ElSudani:
Who cares? Did it take something away from you or anyone you know?

that is not what I asked you.

if the booth stand was not needed, why pay for it?

ElSudani:
Is the president there? Is he going to engage with investors directly?
This is high level engagement with the potential for more success than a fine booth.

that is not what I asked you.

if the booth stand was not needed, why pay for it?

ElSudani:
You are all making a mountain out of a mole hill. If Nigeria had a beautiful stand with people and everything, folks like you will still criticize it as waste of money while everyone in your village are now dead due to hunger.
This is non issue being blown out of proportion. It is ridiculous.

if the booth stand was not needed, why pay for it?

zero8zero:
Nigeria is not there for trade expo, how difficult it is for you to get that into your heads?.

We're there engaging diplomats, entrepreneurs, Investors, international financiers, Govt -to-Govt discussion, in series of conferences.

If you're interested, carry your phone charger, fufu, otapiapia and gala to the booth and exhibit them on behalf of Nigeria 🤣

who are the "we"?

who are the diplomats, entrepreneurs, Investors, international financiers, Govt -to-Govt discussion that the "we" are engaging?

what is the purpose of the engagement?

after the engagement, will there be wedding?

if the "we" are not there for expo, why pay for booth?

zero8zero:
It's not by force na?. It's not on the list of our official engagement. The President's spokesman listed the official activities to expect and trade expo wasn't considered a top priority. We're engaging people that matter to us over there, simple.

who are the "we"?

and who the people that matter that "we" is engaging?

Image123:
To be fair, you could have put pictures of the manned Nigerian booth too. The fellow that called them out manned it patriotically yesterday and was there to show solidarity today.

are you saying that the people responsible for the booth were not patriotic and that if the man had not called them out the story will be the same?

traware:
Tinubu could fart like every other human and they'll still complain.I don't even like him neither do I like his political party but I believe many people in Nigeria suffer from "Tinubu Derangement Syndrome"

why do you not like tinubu and his political party?

Ask any young Lagosian why Yahoo culture is thriving and you’ll hear familiar refrains: “No jobs,” “quick money,” “peer pressure,” and the allure of luxury cars.

Anyone who is patient, harworking and dogged enough to do yahoo should be patient, dogged and hardworking enough to do any legit business

gift2xl:
Waiting for trump response.

do you mean Putin's personal assistant on ukrainian affairs?

AntiChristian:
Sensible Nigerians are the "We" o! I never included you among!

And i think the refinery was working prior to being shut down in May 2025 for maintenance!

who are those "sensible Nigerians" and in what way are they sensible?

you think?

which maintenance is that?

i thought tinubu has fixed it?

how many barrels of crude did it refine before May 2025?

how is it still under "maintenance" since May 2025?

AntiChristian:
We can do it ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

We move with Jagaban!

who are the "we"?

what happened to Port Harcourt refinery?

I thought "JagabaN" has fixed it?

cr7lomo:
Any man that has money will most likely cheT.. especially if thee opportunity presents itself....its natural thing...modernity is just forcing against nature .... a man is not meant to be with one woman.. naturally... its nature

How did you come to the conclusion that "Any man that has money will most likely cheT"?

Is that your kind of person?

Is cheating a function of money or self control?

isaaclech:
It is true, men cheat but we just cheat with ourselves i mean men, we cheat with women can’t stay faithful in their own relationship. So everybody dey cheat, just leave the mata like that.

Who are "we"?

If you cheat, does that mean every other person cheats?

Why can't you speak for yourself?
