Did you notice that the fellow that you quoted just rambled meaningless words? Did you notice that he himself with his words showed self deception. His darling daddy failed him woefully for eight years. Shame would not permit him to admit it. The same shame would not let him admit that PDP could not be compared with APC. Shamelessly again he backs BAT, who takes wrong decisions without consulting his so called team, and then admits thereafter.

I voted for Buhari, he turned out to be a disaster. He wasn't what he promised to be.
Tinubu, I voted for him . Now, greater disaster!

Kukutente23:
Those are lies from IMF. At no time did govt spend all its revenue on debt servicing or have 96% of us revenue on debt servicing. It was simply a projection from the IMF and propagandists ran away with it

And they're falling for it. You even begin to wonder the impact of education in some people's life. I just decided to flow with his dumb figure instead of countering him. I figured it would be easier to argue with him doing that.

grandstar:
There was no other option but to end the subsidy.

Last year, debt servicing was higher than government revenues. This year, it was estimated that debt servicing would consume 96% of government revenue. Where then is the $10b for petrol subsidy will come from? The massive increase in the debt burden over the years was government borrowing money to provide the subsidy.

obyno82:
In what way? Oga go and sit down and stop spreading falsehood.

Lol. You are not up to date. Even here on Nairaland, we dey read the news of the lamentations of their citizens. You think military regime is a friendly govt? The world doesn't want military as rulers anymore.

Great0ne1:
Because the west is using the druggie in ado rock to fight and impose sanctions on nigeriens public. Do you actually think that the sanctions will get at the junta leaders?

Little or not at all. But it will force the citizens to start resenting them gradually. . The citizens will start comparing the hardships during their regime with the toppled one. That's always the aim of sanctions

Leebeedo:
Good to see someone talking sense in this platform even in layman's term. The US is so great to the extent that even a state's economy - California to be precise is bigger than the whole of Africa.

Is this a real fact or the one you just pulled out of your ass?

ecolime:
Good one. I've always supported trading in local currencies.

Nevertheless, it won't still scratch the value of the dollar. The US exports more than they import so na the balance of payment be the koko.

It did unless you didn't read the report, a gradual decline.

Yellen’s reassurance follows a 8% decline in the dollar’s share of global reserves in 2022.

There is a reason why Pounds sterling GBP is strong like a rock despite not being used as the major world settlement currency like the USD.

As long as the US stay ahead of others in innovations, technologies, etc. they have nothing to worry.

A country that owns and hosts Apple, Google, Microsoft, Oracle, Boeing, GE, Amazon, Tesla, etc and you think their currency will just fall yakata?

Just dey play

I don't think it is about that at all. Just a little less reliance on it 100% is most countries are after as they usually used it as weapon against other countries.

manoflove22:
my girlfriend broke up with me after catching me cheating on her with her friends, i have been begging her since weeks now, she said we can never date again.

So, alpha males here told you that even if you want to cheat on her, her friends are the ones you should be dicking? Shameless human being!

Reinamaria:
What goes around comes around.

Yul, watch out!
They always leave how they came.

Yul didn't divorce one for the other, he married both. Olodo.

Great0ne1:
While nigeriens continue to celebrate , you are here wailing and trek under the sun.

That was before, now reality which is hunger, lack of freedom and general hardship is already resetting their brain.

Racoon:
There is unity yen yen among the people of the land of sophisticated politics but Isese no fit hold festival for Ilorin. Muslims say nah them get Lagos dey complain of discrimination but same fellas said a Muslim Muslim national ticket is good for a whole nation. Never seen a bunch of bloody hypocrites.

Muslims are the hypocrites, right? Laughing. Just know that Sanwo rode on their backs to win the election as his fellow faithfuls went with LP. So, if they're now being marginalised by him, they have every right to remind him

Rich4god:
They only care about their personal gain and political advancement. It doesn't matter if you are performing or not, if you don't play by their books(even when the book is anti-people) they will kick you out.

Someone should remind me again, why was Ambode not allowed to complete his eight yes.

Let's keep insulting and abusing each other because of tribe and religion whilst the politicians advance their hold on our treasury.


When election come again, they will bring up issue of tribe and religion to divide the people..

May be you should see a doctor and tell him that you're suffering from amnesia

Zane2point4:
But why risk your lifes and your family life in a hot zone?
You shld learn how to stay out of troubles zone,in every event ppl will always pay the price when they dont learn to use there number 6!

You said nothing but nonsense. He was simply passing through the area and encountered this. Not like he was aware before. And secondly, is the area not Nigeria soil anymore? May be all Nigerians including those who are living in the area should avoid the area. Lol.
I don't know why running away from the problems is always our only effective solution to our problems.

Zane2point4:
You ended up saying nothing,i had to read your comment twice ,are u supporting or opposing sinple?

He's supporting the coup

Ppogbae:
France is working very hard

4akomnehpetS:
Sponsored challenge.. Idiots...The West and her allies need to understand that this format don cast

The Nigeriens who are facing hardships know what they're dealing with.

Olam09:
Okay i hope the little kids calling for coup can see this.

They will lose their freedom before they can know what hit them

imoowo:
Things might even be tough here in Nigeria than in Niger. The Problem is we are suffering and Smiling.

You don't know what it means to be isolated internationally. Most especially, a poor country like Niger that relied majorly on aid.

jumper524:
No system of govt is perfect not even democracy, but then again, I know for sure no bad leader lasts not even emperors.
So just chill, if democracy had favoured majority of your citizens, I'm sure you won't be the poorest country in the world, so it's only natural you try something new.
I won't fall for cheap personal propaganda on things, and I'll advice ecowas not to military involve in a collaborative decision of a sovereign state.

And this one is a human being too?

MANNABBQGRILL:
We remember the time..........
The criticize Our Darling Daddy just because he won the election,
but still rolling and chilling with the evil and looting party that ran down , raped our nation for 16 wasted years.

He who comes to equity must come with clean hands.

A picture speaks more than a thousand words.......

APC government at the Federal level is worse than that of PDP as far as economic management and citizens welfare is concerned. The first and only priority of Nigerians today is what to eat.

teebaxy:
Why didn’t you tell that Buhari when he was the president… Nigeria

This is by far worse than Buhari's administration and policies

Racoon:
They have started talking now after Buhari did the worst. Bunch of bloody hypocrites. However, since the balabloo-blu-bulava heroin drug baron boldly told the world he made Buhari president. So it is emilokan. Then let him continue to stew in his own juice. Ranka dede Sheikh Ahmed Gumi.

You didn't even make sense, just rambling away.

Words for the wise

jmoore:
A newborn baby knows Putin killed him.

Russia's KGB has one of the dumbest tactics with no creativity. It has always been about targets being thrown out of windows.

I guess Wagner boss never wanted to reside on any apartment above ground floor.

Lol.
It is very simple and easy, no elaborate plans required. Just make sure there are no witnesses, end of story.

narite:
The basics of human nature have not changed. The technology, the clothes they wear and use are what might change but human nature is still basically the same.

Except the pressure of the demand for money these days which wasn't in existence back then, at least not rampant like now

BRATISLAVA:
Every second another thread about females. This is what poorness does to men. Nothing else to think of but how to discuss girls and find ways to denigrate them, to compensate for not having the bunnies they crave.

Nigerian men at work, thinking of how to develop the world! Later they will tell you about what men built. It can't be men who create and market such posts.

This is low level Tateism. Nigerian men, backwards minds. Only few of them escaped it.

They are not even discussing females here, the title though

endsarrrs:
That rechargeable radio cassette lamp is the bomb


Indomie generation, stay far away!

I bought like three, another one after the existing one damaged

uuzba:
It was never fuel efficient.

Lots of issues ranging from enormous fuel consumption, air pollution, noise pollution, properties damage, high cost of tickets, limited runways, limited air routes to high maintenance cost and so on

Racoon:
Did you read about the fatal assumptions the pilots had about the plane's unbalanced weight distrubution and the avoidable drag and instability the plane had after steeping on the unfortunate metal piece?

This would have help the plane achieve stability even if they hit the metal and perhaps avoid the unfortunate crash of this wonderful piece of machine. Nah so una dey fail summary in WAEC and JAMB.

Tyre was already burst at high speed, balanced or unbalanced weight distribution didn't matter at that point anymore. The only singular reason he had to take off was to avoid running into the plane carrying the French president.

commodore007:
1 The Concorde came ahead of it's time even thou it was an engineering masterpiece
2.The Concorde used a business model that was not pragmatic nor sustainable
3 The Concorde was programmed to fail by some of the powers that be in the aviation space ( i.e Boeing and Airbus ) their market share was threatened by the entrance of this new masterpiece
The three reasons above made Concorde to fail

Your conspiracy theory in number three negates your first two solid reasons.
You care to explain "how powers that be" contributed to its failure when the reason it was still being operated before the crash was clearly stated in the report?
Let me help you:

British Airways and Air France, the only airlines that ended up buying the Concorde found that it was much more effective as a status symbol than as a means of transport. Concorde represented a triumph of British and French engineering and a milestone of human technological achievement, never mind that tickets were too expensive for ordinary people; the planes spent more time in maintenance than they did in the air; and all the orders from independent airlines were cancelled before it even went into service.

Racoon:
I still remember this disaster. I was in the University then. It was a news the world watched in horror. It is understandable that air disasters are always catastrophic and fatal.

What a terrible end for the doomed passengers watching themselves helplessly to their own deaths because of pilots errors. Worst is the pilot should have listened to his first Officer and abort the takeoff.

A Concorde that never had any fatality over 20 years of its beautiful existence suddenly had one! And that kill the future prospect & advancement of aviation science in that line. What a sad end for the Concorde.

Abeg let the indomie generation here learn history and the future pilots to be learn a thing or two so that lives will be preserved.

Pilot errors? He was the one who dropped metal scrap on the runway?
Then, you said that he should have aborted the take off! I think you missed the part that read that the alternative was to run into the French president?

Just ahead of Concorde, stopped on a taxiway off the left side of runway 26R, was a fully loaded Boeing 747 containing French President Jacques Chirac, who had just returned from a trip to Japan. As the crippled Concorde veered toward the 747, First Officer Marcot shouted, “Watch out!”

Captain Marty, knowing that the plane would not become airborne and would likely strike the 747 if it went into the grass, jammed the rudder hard to the right and raised the nose for liftoff. The plane was still 11 knots below its normal rotation speed, but Marty felt that he had no choice.

When you guys read, read patiently to comprehend in order to avoid blaming people wrongly.

Didi2d:
The same thing went through my mind, so I began thinking if the write up is about spoiling the present government's image.

Cos all the while I believe the north was self sufficient and capable of feeding the whole Nigeria

At least, they can feed themselves. It is traders that their businesses are being affected. Wait till you see the prices of these items going up in the south

GanagiBitrus:
More hardship for Buhari cousins.

DatNaijaGuy:
The north is getting a little bit of what the south went through when Buhari closed southern borders and left northern borders open.
I see northerners protesting against Tinubu's policy in the coming days.

You guys mumu no be small. You don't have sense to know that these animals and other items are also moved down to the south from the northern states? Whatever scarcity northerners will face over this development, it will be worse for southerners because we're feeding off their remnants

Mummyfour:
21st if August, I was at the American embassy for a visa appointment.

From the period spanning 3 hours I was there, nobody left the interview room with a smile or laughter. Almost every one there was rejected.

The funniest thing about the rejection was the verdict on the light blue paper given to the intending travellers which read" you have not demonstrated that you have enough ties to bring you back to Nigeria "

In a layman's terms, it means we are suspecting that you want to japa into the US.
I rest my case.
Please mods front page

You have mentioned the singular reason for high rate of rejection which is DECEPTION on the part of you, the applicants. I don't understand why you chose to go on and on about irrelevant reasons.
