If you know how women rivalry works, you'd already know that this new legal suit came as a result of pressure from Madueke's current wife.

But in fairness, if a woman sought for divorce and got it. She should stop parading herself with divorced husband's name. You can't eat your akara and still have it.

Advanced countries are increasingly tightening their immigration laws to make it extremely difficult for people from third-world countries to migrate and settle in their countries.

If not that many Nigerians have sworn to be unfortunate by constantly voting for and defending old incompetent politicians, why would anyone want to leave a beautiful country like Nigeria and relocate to a [b]fridge like "Australalia"[/b]?

CrimeEx-president Jailed For 45 Years In The US. by maestro299(op): 6:53am On Jul 02, 2024
Honduras ex-president Hernandez sentenced to 45 years in US prison for drug conviction

Former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez was sentenced by a U.S. judge on Wednesday to 45 years in prison for his conviction on drug and firearm offenses.
The sentence means Hernandez, 55, will likely spend the rest of his life behind bars, unless his expected appeal succeeds.

A Manhattan jury found him guilty in March of accepting millions of dollars in bribes to protect U.S.-bound cocaine shipments belonging to traffickers he once publicly proclaimed to combat.

Prosecutors had sought a life sentence, while defense lawyers said a 40-year term, the mandatory minimum under federal law, was enough.

U.S. District Judge Kevin Castel said the 45-year sentence should send a message to well-educated, seemingly personable defendants who may believe they are insulated from prosecution.

He also said jurors saw through Hernandez's "polished demeanor" during the two-week trial, where he took the stand in his own defense.

"They saw him for what he was: a two-faced politician hungry for power," Castel said in Manhattan federal court.

Hernandez led Honduras, a U.S. ally in Central America, from 2014 to 2022.

Prosecutors said he facilitated shipments of at least 400 tons of cocaine to the United States, fueling addiction and violence.

They also said Hernandez used drug money to bribe officials and manipulate voting during Honduras' 2013 and 2017 presidential elections.

"The defendant fed this never-ending cycle of drug trafficking and corruption that tore his country apart," prosecutor Jacob Gutwillig said on Wednesday.

Hernandez denied taking bribes and said he fought the cartels during his presidency.

Wearing olive green prison clothing at his sentencing hearing, Hernandez said he had been wrongfully convicted. He singled out testimony from several convicted traffickers who testified that they bribed him, saying they were trying to reduce their own punishments and exact revenge.

"Despite everything done to me, which is an outrage and a lynching, I am an optimist and I know that the truth will be known later," Hernandez told Castel through a Spanish interpreter prior to being sentenced.

After being sentenced, he faced journalists seated in the jury box and said "soy inocente," Spanish for "I am innocent." He used a cane as U.S. marshals led him out of the courtroom.

Hernandez has been jailed in Brooklyn's Metropolitan Detention Center since his April 2022 extradition from Tegucigalpa.

Castel said he would let Hernandez stay there for now while he appeals.

Hernandez's younger brother, Tony Hernandez, was sentenced to life in prison in March 2021 following his conviction on drug charges. He has been imprisoned in California

GreatKingg:
This is a welcomed development. I believe with patience, these administration's reforms will start to yield the desired results. Agreed, the reforms will lead to high inflation and inflict pains on the citizens in the short-term, but in the mid and long-term, we will reap bountifully from this.

Believe me, there is no way we could have continued subsidizing fuel and foreign exchange. Our economy will collapse under such burden due to our population. Our population is supposed to be a blessing, but our clueless leaders has turned it into a curse. If at 200m+, the government was already borrowing to pay subsidy and salaries, what do you think will happen in the next two years? If government is already struggling to pay subsidy for 200m people, how will they be able to afford it in the years ahead with the way Nigerians breed children like rats?

Things are really tough right now I must confess, and I hope the government can keep intervening from time to time to lessen the burden on the common man.
But when GEJ wanted to remove it in 2012, Tinubu and his gang of misfits staged massive protests against his government.

The racist Republican candidate and his core racist supporters, would have destroyed the world.

Verified criminal trump, would've done worse than Oga Joe Biden aka the wise one.

Criminal and borderline terrorist trump, yes - he is a terrorist for encouraging racists people to attack the USA Capitol building on Jan 6th 2021.

Trump has no economic skills if it's not a corrupt economics.

Trump has no knowledge of the role of USA the great, in relations to the world. The fool doesn't know that a detached America leadership, is an America on the same par as Russia;

If trump was in office during the Ukraine war, the unwise dunc^^e, would have given off Ukraine. In 2 years, Russia would have spread their meanest weapons around Ukraine, and then encouraged china to go take over Taiwan, while they get ready to take over poland and maybe Finland. You know, the forever president putinpucci, has no authoritarian limit for evil.


Trump would have made all the knowledgable European and even Asian countries, forget economics and start arming themselves with nukes.

Trump is just an unhealthy chaos, everyday drama. He will be worse than okp*lor eyes.

Trump might wake up one day and push for the reslavery of blacks outside Africa and the recolonization of black africa.


Trump is a failure and a liar, he was riding off Obama's economics success, until covid came and dented his reality.


For aloof africans, trump wants the resources by force, no diplomatic anything.

Trump would have encouraged Israel to really decimate the islamics in gaza. That is only where our interest aligns. But I understand joe Biden, he is humane, and very wise.
It won't be well for the people who did this to you.

DeLaRue:
Nigeria is going through an economic transition that should have happened decades ago.

All former Presidents from Obj knew subsidy was unsustainable but none had the courage to remove it.

The moment GEJ saw a few people protesting at Ojota, he panicked and declared he was no longer removing subsidy. You can't blame anybody for leader who lacked courage.

They also knew the refineries were not working. Did Obj, or GEJ revive any of the refineries?

Now we have a courageous leader who has removed the insidious subsidy as other President's should have done.

While subsidy removal has unforunately caused a lot of hardship, not removing it would have caused even worse hardship in the future.

Kenya has its problems. Our problems are different, and I believe Nigeria's economy will start turning the corner before the end of the year.

We do not need a protest here.
You tried to hide it but it came out in your third sentence.

You're an APC apologist. This was how you guys hyped Buhari until he left office as one of the worst leaders this country has ever seen. Now you've started with Tinubu.

There's nothing to show that Tinubu can change things. The idiot is just there to 'claim his turn'.

Nigeria's Inflation Quagmire: A Perfect Storm of Neglect and Uncertainty

Nigeria, Africa's most populous nation, is grappling with a debilitating inflationary cycle that threatens to undermine its economic stability. Despite a good understanding of inflation's dynamics, Nigerians have failed to prepare for its far-reaching consequences.
This article delves into the complex factors fueling Nigeria's inflation woes, including global events, security challenges, governance issues, and societal attitudes.

Global Factors

The COVID-19 pandemic, Russia-Ukraine war, and global warming have created a perfect storm of inflationary pressures. The pandemic disrupted supply chains, while the war led to a surge in energy and food prices. Global warming's impact on agriculture and food production is still unfolding, but its effects are already being felt.

Local Factors

Nigeria's inflation crisis is further exacerbated by:

Security challenges: Fulani herdsmen and bandits' attacks on farmers and crops have led to food shortages and price increases.
Governance issues: The government's reluctance to address security concerns and support mechanised farming has worsened the situation.
Corruption: Rampant corruption in public and corporate organisations, as well as illegal money printing without economic backing, has fueled inflation.
Brain drain: The "Japa syndrome" (mass emigration of young Nigerians) has deprived the country of skilled labour and innovative minds.
Agricultural neglect: The refusal of youth to embrace farming and the government's lack of support for mechanised farming have hindered agricultural growth.

Societal Attitudes
Nigerians' attitudes towards inflation are paradoxical. While landlords and civil servants expect annual increments, citizens resist price increases in commodity prices, expecting to pay 1960 prices in 2024. This mindset has led to a lack of preparedness for the current inflationary pressures.

Consequences and Solutions

The consequences of Nigeria's inflation crisis are far-reaching, including reduced purchasing power, decreased standard of living, and increased poverty. To address this, Nigerians must:

Embrace inflationary adjustments in all aspects of life
- Invest in assets that keep pace with inflation
- Develop a culture of savings and investment
- Encourage policymakers to implement effective monetary and fiscal policies
-Address security concerns and support mechanised farming
-Combat corruption and promote good governance.
Nigeria belong to all of us.
The Obi-diots in this country should allow the president to breath. He inherited a comatose nation with a dead economy.
To fix this multi hydra problems, "A sacrifice must be paid by all citizens and ruling party"
The Obi-diots are known for celebrating and escalating any negative news about Nigeria and PBAT.
In vain they shall labour again.
PBAT is destined to fix Nigeria. There is no vacancy in Aso Rock.
Obi-diot can return to Agulu and presides over IPOBs.

Conclusion
Nigeria's inflation crisis is a complex issue requiring a multifaceted approach. By acknowledging the global and local factors fueling inflation and addressing the societal attitudes and governance issues, Nigerians can mitigate its effects and build a more resilient economy for the future. The time for action is now.
You ruined a good piece with petty stupidity.

The 'Obi supporters' or whatever you call them are doing what APC supporters did pre-2015. They are holding the government in power to accountability. The current president, his predecessor and their party did worse to the then incumbent. Nobody castigated them.

Tinubu installed Buhari. He said it himself. So he shouldn't be free from blame from whatever mess you guys claim Buhari made. He should suck it up and deal with it.

You Tinubu supporters should stop with the gaslighting. It's not helping America and the Democrats who taught it to you and it's not helping Tinubu, the APC and Nigerians.
