[quote author=Igbo.owore]Don't be silly. The British gave away Bakassi long before Obasanjo joined the Nigerian Army. Obeying the judgement of the ICJ which ruled that Bakassi was in Cameroun, meant he gave it away? When the British amalgamated the Federation called Nigeria were we consulted? Likewise when they gave away Bakassi.

Obasanjo is someone I have little respect for but we should not play politics with the Bakassi issue. The man is close to his grave and lets put the records straight.[/quote]it wasn't British. It was yakubu gowon dat ceded it to Cameroon during d civil war

[quote author=Mr knowitall.]Nigeria still has a long way to go before it truly becomes a civilized nation....What these pastors or religious leaders

and politicians don't understand is that Homosexuals and homosexual activist are not asking for equal rights in churches

and mosques..they are asking for equal rights under the law as a citizen of a country which is their right. It is their

right as a citizen of Nigeria to be protected under the law..regardless of who they like to have sex with.
Nigeria is not

govern by the bible or Quran its govern by a constitution which guarantees all citizens equal rights. Politics and

religion have nothing in common....with laws like this and if politicians continue to allow religious leaders to influence

the laws...Nigeria will forever remain an irrelevant third world country lead by caveman..[/quote]who made it their right?

Business › Re: Is Shoprite Business Good For Nigeria? by loswhite(m): 12:14pm On Jul 07, 2013
lekkie073: Quality goods, well, some not all
provide employment? Shoprite has less than 3000 employees in Nigeria where we have more than 3 million unemployed people ....I.e. less than 0.1%
contribution to GDP, not significant since it will fall below 0.5%
Having shoprite on Nigerian soil is more disadvantageous than its advantage
QED
what kind of analysis is the one? Do u knw what 3000 employees are ? Well creat ur own employ just 20 den u can come back and talk

[quote author=P.Stacks]I wish they can even privatise the whole of Nigeria sef. Let shoprite take over the country. What do you mean because its south African.
Business is comparative advantage and guided by principles of demand and supply, cost minimisation and profit maximisation.

If a pakiatani can offer me what an american can offer me, d same quality, d same quantity but cheaper, I would buy from d pakistani in as much as I'm America's number one fan.


If any Nigeria company can do better than Shoprite.. Let them take the challenge. Glo took the challenge to be a Nigerian Brand to MTN that's South African.

Nigeria is backward and u're still wanting to make it worse. What says Nigerian's product shouldn't flood international Markets like we have "Made in China", what says Nigerians should have stuffz like Shop rite at home and extend abroad.

People in Tanzania, if Dangote cement is cheaper than their Local cement, would they say because its a Nigerian cement they won't use it.

When it comes to making rational economic decisions.. If my mother is selling a loaf of bread for #50 and my enemie that I know can even poison me is selling that same loaf of bread for #49.50. If I think what that 50kobo would do to my life.. My guy! Na that my enemy own I go buy oo. Just hope d message is passed.

Its not about South African or Somalia or Kuwait. Its about Quality and Quantity of goods and services produced and at what cost. Market forces don't recognise nigerians or South africans.

I wish they could sell Nigeria to South Africa sef.[/quote]guy u are so on point
Business › Re: Is Shoprite Business Good For Nigeria? by loswhite(m): 12:02pm On Jul 07, 2013
Kx: Let's stop dis free advert for shoprite.
Just a little research will prove dat shoprite is not as cheap as we all assumed.
My example is funny but it is absolutely true.
Infants blue packaged crackers biscuit is N10 aboki price; same is sold for N15 in shoprite.
If it is so for a mere N10 item, imagine how it could be for significant and more costly goods.
them no force u to buy

BTW I believe there is no way it won't affect those trader who has supper market. By the time most people knows that their price is cheap and also has quality good compare the ones they buy from those Suppermarket people will prefer to go their
then it is left for them to re strategize. From ur point u see it is beneficial to consumers

Politics › Re: Nigeria Seeks $3Billion Loan From China by loswhite(m): 12:13am On Jul 06, 2013
4 Play: The main problem for me is that we have a corrupt Govt that cannot be trusted with money. Other than that, Nigeria has major infrastructure needs that require heavy borrowing for the Govt to finance it.

There's this major misconception that Nigeria is a rich country because of oil. I live in the UK, a country of 62m with a national budget of $1 trillion. A back of the envelope calculation of our oil proceeds, 2m barrels per day at $100 per barrel, will give you gross revenues of $73bn, a huge chunk of which will be retained by the oil companies. Given the infrastructural challenges, even the most honest and competent policy makers will require heavy borrowing as our oil revenues will not go far in meeting our development challenges.

Another pattern I have noticed is for Nigerians to bemoan our disproportionate recurrent expenditure whilst expressing glib condemnations about Aso Rock food budget and the National Assembly members's obscene allowances. Whilst these are examples of waste, it is an act of self-delusion to ignore the reality that most of our recurrent expenditure is made up of public sector wages and fuel subsidy. If Nigerians really want to curtail recurrent expenditure, they will have to accept the removal of fuel subsidy and reduction of the public sector wage bill.

The reality is that we have the country we deserve. A people prone to supporting bone headed economic policies and tribal causes have no right to a prosperous and peaceful country.
as regard the subsidy, is it not possible to sell crude oil @ cheaper price to local refineries for local consumption so dat @ d end d government does not need to pay subsidy. And the ppl will still buy petroleum product cheaper than international price.
Politics › Re: Nigeria Seeks $3Billion Loan From China by loswhite(m): 12:05am On Jul 06, 2013
decode: Government is financed by tax revenue and borrowings. Besides the loan is cheap @ 3% (cooperative rate).
dont be deceived by the 3%. We borrow money frm china to build infrastructure . As part of the deal, Chinese companies will be d ones to build d infrastructure, meaning we are going to be importing both most of the materials from them and also creating jobs 4 sum of their ppl dat will come as expatriate to build the infrastructure. After all this we will still pay d borrowed money with 3% interest and also they get a chance to negotiate buying our crude oil probably at a cheaper price.
It is important to note that the Chinese company that will build d infrastructure will pay huge tax back to the Chinese government and also make profit 4 d building of the infrastructure.

arcbabe: sharaap there,firstly the motive of being in a relationship doesn't neccessarily have to be what you will gain but when you love someone deeply and they can't assist you when you are in need or pretend not to know when you are in need is an act of been silly and wicked and secondly you will always want to look for a way out of it but hey! You can't convince me with this bull shit you wrote okay!

The lady already said shes independent.

Independent or not,a stingy guy will never share anytin(it must nt be money),all he would ever want is hs own satisfaction.
the lady is also stingy because it was not stated dat she gave d guy anything

arcbabe: Why would someone have a guy that can't support them? it is very bad and I know most of those that commented are either being stingy or fools. Some guys are naturally greedy and can't assist you when you are in need not that they don't have but they are just wicked to assist. What is wrong in appreciating your girl, someone you claim to love even though it's small but not giving her 1k. Hmmm! Some guys are dumb that they know when a lady is in need but won't say anything and it's those stingy type that won't stop disturbing you for sex. Hell no! If you can't take good care of me, u can never qualify to be my guy.
By d way why did u have to take it so personal? It is ur type dat thinks dat the only u bring to the relationship is sex

Anyway, I read something interesting about that airport. My God! Corruption has been in this country even before most of us were born.


www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warri_Airport

In other words, Shell own Osubi Airport! Interesting.
airport road is where the former airstrip was located but it was closed after Osubi was completed.
