I am not impressed. What about exposing the culprits? What about prosecuting the economic saboteurs? What about making them a deterrent? How are we sure that the vessel was really destroyed?


I don't think we are really serious as a nation in fighting criminality.
Is this crime not a treason? Then you read a foolish report of destroying the vessel and the crude oil....lol as deterrent. No one is arrested and sentenced to death as deterrent o. It is obvious that NNPCL are the ones stealing our crude oil.

Politics › Re: Subsidy Removal Drags Down Petrol Consumption By 28% by loswhite(m): 10:10am On Jul 08, 2023
nairalanda1:
Smuggling is a phenonenom that happens in all countries with explicit subsides on petrol like Nigeria.

Libya sells fuel at N14, and they can afford it, with a populaiton of 7 million and production of 1.7 m barrels per day. But that means that smuggling happens massively...to the point they are using air strikes to stop smuggler.

Yeah corrupt politicans and NNPC are part of the problem because subsidy=free government money-=corruption
I want subsidy to stop but the perfect time was 2012. A stronger naira back then and local refinery would have helped. Right now we are in a total mess

tejpot:
So you want me to explain this part
It is informal sector but the turnover is huge, does that not tell you that there are people that make far less? Now that you and I have agreed on what constitute informal sector. If the informal sector can boast of individuals with large income brackets or business turnover, is that not a good source of revenue? Should the government turn a blind sight to that?
I can tell you from experience that, most times, it is not the money from the people selling maggi, small small pepper cowbell etc does not justify the cost of payment enforcement. Most times, it is the amount of relatives or like-businesses that comes into tax net from such drive that makes the whole process profitable. The whole idea is for businesses to be more fiscally responsible and be aware of prevailing tax laws and how they can even take advantages of tax reliefs for their businessses.
All this English for make sense for Government when get sense not bunch of looters that is my point.

You don't know what constitute the informal sector and I am making sure you understand that. You can decide to check dictionary for informal sector. But a carpenter selling 2 by 10 plank in sawmill and making up to 20 million a day is informal sector by virtue of that business. It is informal sector but the turnover is huge. On the other hand, you don't get to decide for the government where they will collect tax, the law has given them that power. So its not what you and I think. Its what the law says.
I understand what constitute the informal sector. A house help a market woman selling fish and Maggie also constitute the informal sector. You just jump to selling plank 20 million per day...Calm down oga.

tejpot:
Tax as a civic responsibility and law is not conditional. There is no 'if I don't get this from government, I won't pay'. Because if it is established that there is tax avoidance, there is a penalty. Having said that, it is the responsibility of government to make judicious use of tax collected for the benefit of all.
Go and check for the definition of informal sectors. The Government failure is responsible for the informal sector. The government cannot come reap where they did not sow. If you want the informal sector to pay taxes then you must look for a way to incorporate them.

Business › Re: Bank Of America Urges Nigeria To Hike Interest Rate To 25.5% To Curb Inflation by loswhite(m): 6:28pm On Jul 03, 2023
exstreve:
I asked ChatGPT to explain Interest rate hike like I'm an 8 year old to some who may not understand, I do cos I trade stocks and crypto, well, here is the answer.

Well, imagine you have a piggy bank where you save your allowance money. Every once in a while, you decide to give yourself a little treat and take out some money from your piggy bank. But what if you notice that your parents start giving you more money as your allowance?

You might think, "Yay! Now I can take out more money from my piggy bank and buy even more treats!" That's kind of what a rate hike is like.

You see, when the government or a bank decides to hike, or increase, interest rates, it means they are giving more money to people. When people have more money, they tend to spend more, just like you would if you got a bigger allowance.

But why would the government or a bank do that? Well, sometimes they want people to spend more money to help businesses grow and for the economy to become stronger. When businesses grow, they can employ more people and create more jobs.

On the other hand, if the government or a bank decides to lower, or decrease, interest rates, it means they are giving people less money. In this case, people might decide to save more money instead of spending it because they aren't getting as much from their allowance. So, it's like having a smaller allowance and not being able to buy as many treats.

Rate hikes can affect many things, like how much it costs to borrow money or get a loan. When rates go up, it might become more expensive for people to borrow money, and they might not want to spend as much or take out loans to buy big things like houses or cars.

So, similar to how your allowance can affect how much you can spend on treats, rate hikes affect how much people can spend and can also influence the overall economy.
Chatgpt did not give you good explanation. Interest rate is not about only you saving it also means the cost of borrowing will be high. It is the reverse of your analysis. Too much money in circulation leads to high inflation. The rise Interest rate means more ppl will save money in the bank to reduce the money in circulation and as such they are rewarded with high interest.

Politics › Re: How Does One Survive With This New Utility Increment? by loswhite(m): 12:17pm On Jul 02, 2023
louso:
I tried recharging my prepaid Meter all through yesterday June 30th, all failed; maybe the traffic of panic buying of the old rate being the last day was responsible for the glitch. Woke up very early this morning to recharge and boom it went just at the 1st trial, chai!!!

I recharged 20k and I got 267 units in return. I was shocked. Usually 1500 is for the 7.5%(VAT). I quickly did the maths 18500 divided by 267.(something). So my tariff now is around 69 Naira per KWH. Mehn, cold gripped me, before now when u buy 20k, u are good for a month due to epileptic power supply. Ironically we have been having 24hours power supply, only God knows if this will last up to 3 weeks sef.

Everything is increasing except for salaries that are on stunted growth. From Fuel, that has impacted directing on food cost and transportation. While this Electric tariff increment will have a larger impact on almost everything. But we all know that the Masses will bear the brunt if it all.

Which way o? How do a common Man survive with all these skyrocketing Bills?
This is the old rate. You are on band A

Politics › Re: Festus Okoye: I Don't Understand Reliance On IReV when the parties had agents by loswhite(m): 6:46am On Jun 30, 2023
davodyguy:
Stating the fact.
There are over 100,000 polling units.

APC and PDP had party agents in all, as party agents are expected to stay at the polling units, count votes there and sign the form before the form is either uploaded it the hard copy taken to the collation Centre.

You're unable to get 100,000 plus agents to assist and you want to claim fraud or rely on IREV.

So what happen in those units that you had no agent? How can you prove fraud?

Tell this Obi guy to stop wasting his time and 🤑
How can you have alterations on your sheet? Is it that most of you choose to be stupid? If you have alterations on your sheet what does that tell you? The reason for Electronic transmission of results is to make our election transparent. We counted we signed and we uploaded immediately. How can every other results be uploaded but only the presidential experienced Glitch? You guys just display foolishness.
I am not against any presidential candidate. I just want a free and fair Election because that is exactly what will benefit the masses.

mrvitalis:
Removing subsidy was a good idea ( they borrowed) but now they don't know absolutely what to do to stabilize the economy

Developmental economics is a balancing art

FB should have rolled Out a 5 trillion naira soft credit to banks ( commercial and micro finance) to give to specific key sectors to either
1) produce what we import
2) produce what we can export

To get the loan

1) your business must be viable banks would make sure of that

2) employ a minimum amount of people

3) serve us or earn us a certain amount of foreign exchange

This would straighten naira... Dropping inflation, create employment, generating revenue, increasing GDP and overal improve living standard


But watch how they would start building unimportant infrastructural project that can't sustain itself even
All the roll out that CBN roll to produce what we can eat ....lol have you seen the impact? Please just leave that topic abeg make I no put you for suspect list.

Ribadu lacks the knowledge, training, education & experience in domestic, foreign, & military policies related to national security.

Most of the directors and other senior staff of the NSA are military men, will ribadu dismiss them? or place them under his command as a civilian?
Ribadu is also politician who took part in the APC primaries in the last election, he still have his political ambitions intact and remains a politician....a card carrying member of the APC.



Fingers crossed
What have we benefited from the generals with experience of war?

Even the Bible says any man that can’t provide and take good care of his girlfriend/wife and children is worse than an infidel. Atleast men are to provide 97% for his girlfriend/wife.

A woman takes care of the home and you still expect her to bring something to the table. Haba!! Na wa!! undecided

If you as a man wants your woman to bring something to the table, then be ready to switch sides by taking care of the home while the woman goes out to provide for your lazy and broke self.
Do ladies sit at home in this Generation? If your answer is no...just shut up. If yes adjust it to 100 percent so you will sit at home for the rest of your life and take care of babies

Ngozi Okonjo-Iwealla advised Olusegun Obasanjo to pay all the debts that we owed the international lenders like World Bank, IMF, e.t.c., and Obasanjo did pay up.

This same woman was the Minister of Finance that was borrowing from all the international lenders for Goatluck Jonathan and his gang of 40 thieves led by Diezaini Allison- Maduekwe, Sambo Dasuki and Attorney General Aondaka, or what is the thief's name again?

When the puff-puff-cheeked thief was asked what happened under her watch, she brought out a memo signed by Goatluck authorizing the heartless looting of our national treasury. That means she knew she and her gang were looting, so she needed authorization by the useless President to cover her loot. One President is still coming who will jail her.

After her death, she will be forgotten, but the history of Nigeria will not be taught without mentioning Emilokan Bola Ahmed Tinubu and other past and future Presidents
