Are you in Warri? The sight of tricycle(keke) everywhere reminds me of warri

I wonder why people prefer freezing temperatures on AC... You don't have to put it at the lowest temp

They are training for life in Canada 😂

Why does it sound like Reno is angling for a position in Tinubu’s cabinet

I knew it was made in china even before I open the thread

I guess you didn't see the party and wild jubilation in daura as buhari landed?

just imagine- celebrating mediocrity and failure

It’s probably higher than that…if you consider the fact that G boys aren’t actually employed in the real sense of things also runs girls too

We warned them in 2015 but they said we were benefitting from corruption. Now see where we are

SavageResponse:
That rubbish where a wife takes half the man's properties only works in western countries not here in Nigeria

I think it’s best to have lawyer draw up a prenup before marriage or do a “Hakimi”. The way things are going now I can foresee that happening in Nigeria soon if it hasn’t even started alteady

Accountability is another issue entirely. I agree with a lot of your concerns as they are valid but we must give this new government the benefit of doubt.

One thing we’ve all agreed upon is that subsidy is unsustainable. It is a very wasteful adventure that gives the people little benefit but gives importers and foreign countries a lot of benefits.

Once it is removed and we notice it is being looted, I will willingly join any uprising against the government.

But sir Nigeria as a nation removed subsidy from diesel, kerosene and even gas if I’m not mistaken- do any of us know where the Monies saved went into sir? No we don’t. The immediate past administration cut off from the amount paid as subsidy also but where was the saved money channeled into? We have no idea

Nigeria leaders have antecedent of corruption and waste so forgive me if I find it very very difficult to trust anyone at the helm of affairs. This new government will remove the subsidy nothing anyone can do about it but one thing I know for sure is you won’t see anything positive they do with the supposedly saved money- and that is my biggest quarrel with the entire thing…hope you get my point sir

johnlegend01:
Even if we stop importing fuel, if we get fuel cheap right now, it's subsidised. The question should rather be "what can we do to strengthen Naira?"

As for rice, we will have high cost of rice until everywhere is saturated with locally produced rice and the production cost is reduced more than it is. Do you know the price of rice in the international market?

On another note, Nigeria is a difficult place. If we have these things so cheap, they will become so scarce because those in the system will rather take them to countries that will fetch them more.

God will help us, Na small small. We don't have the time luxury though but we must still be patient.

Locally made rice or locally re-bagged rice. How many rice farm/mill are operating in the country? How many tons of rice are they producing?

Government only supposedly placed embargo on importation of rice because it wanted only certain people to monopolize the market- they import re-bag, slap any name on it and claim it’s locally produced rice then go off and sell at exorbitant rate…have you asked yourself why locally produced rice is even more costly now foreign rice during Jonathan’s regime?

Judolisco:
it won't be 500... It will be cheaper...

Thats the point I’m trying to get across to these people. If the government had done the right thing we have no business subsidizing fuel or paying over 300 per liter of fuel. But they just want to defend nonsense

seunmsg:
Nothing less than N400 with current market conditions. However, market conditions may push the price upwards or downwards anytime. The point of removing subsidy is not to fix price but to allow market conditions dictate the price.

Sir I almost completely agreed with you then I remember that the immediate past government removed(or at least reduced the amount paid as subsidy) and promised to channel the saved money into other sectors of the economy- since then however I can’t point at any project the government started/completed with said savings. So when this government successfully removes subsidy this time what happens to the money? Whose pocket(s) will it end up this time… At the end of the day it’s still me and you that will have to buy fuel at a higher rate, buy gas at an exorbitant rate, buy rice at an increased rate, buy every other household commodities at a higher rate and still pay taxes, pay for security(vigilante every month) pay electricity bill and I’m almost certain next rent will be higher than previous one…Yet salaries will remain what it was before the new pump prices, aren’t you tired? I know must of us are so used to being mistreated by those in elected position, we’ve all grown a thick skin but does that make it right my man?

I’m not entirely against removing subsidy what I want to make very very abundantly clear is that those millions of dollars they tell you will be saved from removing subsidy will end up in someone/some peoples account why you and every other citizen suffers the after effect

reason why I don’t consider models attractive…like how will you rate a woman without yansh as fine😂😂😂

etrange:
Regardless of the kind of wife you marry, she'll need a lawyer for a formal divorce, and an ignorant/unexposed wife doesn't necessarily imply an ignorant/unexposed attorney. So if you happen to be in a place where the law works, you might still end up paying. The question is, would you stand in the way of your family moving abroad based on the fear that your wife might seek divorce and take half of your money? Well, some men might actually do that, but when you take a moment to understand how alimony works, you might reconsider.

There's no law that states a woman is entitled to half of her husband's wealth in case of divorce. That would be gender bias. In most cases, the law only states that the wealthier partner pays alimony to make up for the time the less earner spent in care of the marriage. For obvious reasons, it's mostly the men that pay. However, we have many famous women who have paid alimony to thier spouses. Things like the reason for the breakup, how much you were earning before marriage vs after marriage, wife's income, nature of wife's work, your amount of involvement in home keeping, etc. are all put into consideration when alimony is calculated. Therefore, they're are very good arguments that can reduce alimony to almost nothing for men.

When you marry someone with similar or even higher education level and ensure that you both work the same hours and do all the house chores together, then your attorney will be in a better position to reduce your alimony when divorce is filed. However, this won't work for African men cause in reality, thier women mostly spend time taking care of the family and keeping the home together and thereby affording the men the time to go out there and make money. Parting ways with such a wife without paying a dime will be a difficult height regardless of how good the attorney is.

Another option is to get a prenuptial agreement before marriage. This works well for working class couples that do well on thier own. With such agreement, no one pays the other in the case of divorce. But again, men that sign such agreements should be ready to let the wife pursue her career to the best of her ability and manage her money/investments without interference. Now this is not cheap. Since both couples are high fliers and nobody can be tied down by home chores, this normally results in getting people to help with home keeping and child care. Many would argue this unafrican. Some men won't be happy until thier wives sweat in the kitchen cooking for them or wake up early to get the kids ready for school. And some women see prenup as lack of trust.

So leaving someone you really like to settle with some girl from a rural area with the hope that she won't divorce you some day and take your money with her doesn't sound like a great idea. The smart thing is to know how alimony works and put that into consideration in every step of the marital journey.

Brilliant👍👍 should I ever consider marriage I will definitely reach out to you. I’m not entirely sure I want to but if something drastic happens and I change my mind I’ll like to have a prenup drawn up before marriage

MrBrownJay1:
but, if you cant find a good girl in church, then who are all these demons singing/praying/hollering every sunday in these supposed "holy" establishments called CHURCH?!?!?

You already answered your question bro😃…Shey you see the name you called them up there

What happened to systematically build the country? these guys have sponsored terror on the nation in the name of boko haram and other terrorist groups just to siphon public funds in the name of defense

All the monies spent on defense can't be accounted for, businesses are not flourishing, governors are too lazy

But suddenly fuel subsidy removal is the answer to all our problems

How? They don't know🤣

Exactly the make it seem like this subsidy removal is a magic wand once they wave it all out problems are gone. But it’s all a big fat lie this isn’t the first time they are removing or reducing subsidy payment what happened to the previous money saved when they reduced subsidy payment. Which aspect of the economy did they channel it to?

mbaise1000:
Not all nigerians, you are afraid to name THOSE hugely responsible, THOSE that will vote against their personal interests just to spite others and will call THOSE they want to spite haters, if you say all nigerians, you are insulting the 5% who are always insulted because they choose not to follow the rest of nigerians, why is it said that IGBOS don't know how to play politics? We are not against the removal of this subsidy in 2012, we did not occupy nigeria then and we were vilified for it, today, THOSE that were against it and occupied nigeria against it are the ones doing it now and the worst again is that their foot soldiers making all the noise here are the most hungry ones supporting those killing them because they answer the same name,
Nonsense

Sorry but I don’t agree with you. I still stand on my word when I say Nigerians and I mean all Nigerians- I’m from the South-Delta state to be precise and I have been fortunate or unfortunate to stay and live with Nigerians from all geo political zones and in over 11 states and one thing I know for sure is how deeply tribalistic Nigerians are. So maybe you are different which is good the country needs that but I know what I mean when I say Nigerians trust me we are like a very very disturbingly dysfunctional family(society)

I don’t know of anything else but the one thing I can advice you is this - if you want serious Christian girl- Avoid church choir meme era, pastors daughters, evangelism sisters basically avoid church girls they are not Christians expect on sundays

After he and Bubu failed woefully? No he should have thrown a nation wide party to exit Aso Rock….mtcheeeew

So this guy really left his wife or his wife left him?
Anyways if you are a man and you know within yourself you can’t stop “looking” outside. Don’t marry a modern wife or allow your wife experience the lifestyle of foreign women especially USA and UK else she’ll divorce you asap….And take half of everything you sweat to get

Same question I keep asking. This should be the second or third time this subsidy is being “removed” either partial or whole…but I can’t point to a single project the “saved billions” have been channeled to….

Nigeria is a joke take it or leave it and Nigerians are the most gullible tribalistic set of humans to ever walk the earth. They only support something if it’s orchestrated by someone from their tribe/region…We deserve the leaders we have simple.

Yes if we insist petrol should be sold at N195 per liter.

So you mean even if we refine crude here in Nigeria, fuel will still go for 500-700 per liter? Your sure of this?

seunmsg:
The part in bold is wrong. Very wrong. Government is not paying subsidy because we import petrol. Government pay subsidy because Nigerians don’t want to buy petrol at market determined price. We want to buy petrol at a price regulated below the cost of production and profit margin of petrol importers and refiners. Let’s understand this and not confuse each other, please.

So if our refineries were workin at full capacity all four plus this new dangote refinery would be even be discussing the issue of subsidy sir?

He did well for his people but very poor as the president of Nigeria….He didn’t get their with only votes from Daura

Nigerians didn’t ask the right questions then and we sure aren’t asking the right questions now…
Why do we have subsidy in the first place?
Because me import fuel right
So why do we import fuel?
Because our refineries aren’t working?
So why aren’t our refineries working?

If we fixed all our refineries would we still need to import fuel?

So why haven’t we channeled resources over the years to fix the refineries?

We stopped importation of rice because “we want to grow our economy and consume locally grown rice right?

So why did the price of locally grown rice shoot up?

These and many more are questions we should be asking the government. These are things we should demand answers to otherwise we’ll just keep hearing different nonsense every new day

Marriage isn’t for everyone
