Nobody spends that amount of money with a desperate attempt to remain there. No poor man can afford 45 million naira for a master's degree . Most students in the category of low income earners are in the UK on fully scholarships.
I'm not sure you're in Nigeria living with us or you're not just in tune with reality of what is happening around you. You would surprised to know what the candidates or their parents are selling to raise money

You all wouldn't believe that many Nigerians in UK are happy with all these stringent policies. They dont want others to join them there.
Well, it could be explained that they're afraid of competition and over saturation of labour by immigrants/Nigerians

What is happening now is roll over effect. The problems were accumulating but were padded with subsidies. Nigeria has always been a country with serious economic structural defects. Many regimes tried cosmetic solutions viz structural adjustment program SAP, sureP, austerity measures, IMF conditionalities etc. All these amounted to postponing the evil's day. No leader wanted to make the hard choices because of the expected backlash. The more the hard choices are delayed the worse the situation became.

Tinubu loves Nigeria. He has his eyes on history and posterity. It's actually politically risky for any president to take these hard decisions in a first tenure. PBAT is aware that taking the decision in the second tenure will be a waste because it will not be driven to logical conclusion.

Nigeria will realize her potential after Tinubu's eight years. The great task for him is to start early to shop for a visionary, brilliant and ambitious Nigerian that will take over from him. This is the only way to replicate the Asian tigers and Lagos experience. We will be worse off if a populist candidate wins the next election. He will not have the audacity to continue and drive the reforms.
Lol.
The man who almost trippled the Nigerian government revenue since he came to power less than three years ago by removing every benefit that Nigerians were enjoying under previous administrations and who has no reason to borrow more money has now borrowed money more than the eight years of Buhari in power.

Stop decieving urself. Obi left Adc because they were all working for Atiku as predetermined candidate. Same reason he left pdp.

Not because of any court case dispute.
He left because he knew that with that level case and in-fighting, ADC candidate would likely be disqualified. I hope he talks about it one day. But I'm sure you will still disagree with him cheesy.
Anyone who followed politics would advise Atiku at the time to leave that party, I said it at the time he should leave the party.

Politics › Re: Rufai Oseni Slams Natasha Over Cash Gifts To Constituents (Video) by maasoap(m): 12:38pm On Nov 05
Responding to the controversy, Akpoti-Uduaghan defended her decision, explaining that her experience with previous empowerment programmes influenced her choice to distribute cash rather than business equipment.

According to the senator, some beneficiaries who previously received sewing machines sold the equipment to meet other financial needs, including expanding their businesses and paying rent.

She explained that direct financial assistance would give beneficiaries the flexibility to address their immediate business requirements, such as purchasing stock, acquiring production materials and establishing new businesses.
He must yarn dust as long as it is not about Obi. He's criticising the best performing senator in Nigeria. Don't people need cash to start businesses in Nigeria again?

Is it more of "an old wine in a new bottle" or "a new wine in an old bottle" or "a new wine in a new bottle"?
As far as I am concerned, there is no fire service in Nigeria.

If you change the name, also effectively train and equip them to modern standard of doing the work now and always.
It is the ignorance in you speaking, or may be the past underfunded of fire services in Nigeria by both federal and state governments across the nation. It is my profession and I can assure you that the service has improved tremendously and much better now under the new fire CG.
I remember the day houses in a man's compound caught fire in Ede, Osun state. Foure fire trucks worked through the night.
And just this year, Iyanu Plastics in Old Garage, Osogbo. I think you should look this one up on tiktok because it is recent. So many neighbouring businesses were saved that day judging by the location of that "fuel depot" and how difficult it was to access the building.
I pray you don't find out that fire services exist in Nigeria through your own experience.
BTW: do you have Fire service numbers stored on your phone? How would you have when you don't even believe they exist cheesy

Lol. Continue lying to yourself if that's what makes you sleep well at nights.
Is it a sin for Nigerians to benefit something from their own government just like citizens in Saudi, UAE, Canada, UK, USA, China and the rest?
The funny aspect is that all these Nigerians that we're electing and appointing into power would easily become millionaires and in some cases, become billionaires just under four years. Some would even be on pension for life just for serving/stealing for four years cheesy. And they're even getting everything free during the period they are "serving" us.
What is wrong if subsidies on fuels (petrol, diesel and kerosene) are made available for Nigerians? Are our leaders not enjoying all these things?

Buying fuel at black market for #1500 when the official rate is #300.
Yeah... those years of multiple months of salaries being owed.
Those years of severe infrastructure deficit.
Yeah.... those years of high crude price but no savings in foreign reserves which made it very difficult to meet fx obligations.
Those years of incessant strikes by lecturers because their salaries were being owed.
Yeah.....those years that we used six years for a four-year course.
Yeah... Those years that Alscon built at $3.5 billion was sold for $120 million and we were told that it was a mistake.
All what you listed above are truths and valid. But as an adult Nigerian under PDP government who experienced everything you listed and under APC government who is also experiencing everything and as an APC member to the core, the living conditions of Nigerians were by far better then than now.
More people have plunged into below poverty line under Tinubu. People who are working can no longer afford what people who were not working but could afford under PDP and Buhari's administrations. Tinubu has messed up Nigerians and Nigerian economy

What Nigerians need is diversity.As more investors set up CNG filling Stations ,the supply would ease the struggles created by increased demand

In many countries, vehicles use petrol, CNG, diesel and electricity.


Nigerians should have options in all aspects, including electricity and building materials
Lol. Why is the facilities for dispensing CNG not expanding at the same rate as the number of vehicles converting to it? It seems like you don't know the kind of country you are. This is a perfect situation for the increase in price because the demand is now exceeding the supply

BATified2023:
One thing about nairaland is that it's obvious majority of those who visit here don't have data or they don't just bother watching videos before commenting

How can u as a tenant put tiles without informing your landlord?

What audacity, the tenant was even saying since he has paid for the house he can do whatever he wants with it, haba now

Like how do people reason like this?

The landlord didn't send him to put tiles so it's basically not part of the agreement, y can't the man go n rent house with tiles?

The reason y I can never support the tenant is because it happened to my dad's house but it didn't turn violent, the man was just sued to court to explain the reason for his actions.

At the end of the day he was made to understand that no matter what u do in the house u will never remove it while going.

The reason for this is because some tenants will fix ac, pop, tiles and everything and when they are leaving they will scatter everything in d house all in the name of removing what they did n the landlord will have to spend double their rent to fix it before another tenant can move in

Just lately a man fix solar panel on the roof n when he was leaving they removed it badly that the roof was leaking, his rent was 550k and over 350k was used to fix that.

So I support the landlord on this

If u like do anything in d house, u won't remove it while leaving
While your reasons are valid, some landlords arbitrarily increase the house rent just because they observed that the tenants have renovated the houses and thereby increased its rent value. And they would want the tenants to leave so that they can reap the benefits of the tenants efforts and resources. It is nothing but wickedness

So, if he campaign for Tinubu, politicians are using him but when he campaign for Obi or Atiku, politicians are not using him? What a logic?
The truth is that no matter how badly Tinubu runs his government, no one has any right to attack anyone campaigning for him or voting for him. If you attack such person, you are already laying foundation for an election that is not free and fair.
