I hope your successor adopts. a maintenance culture.
Rural PHC's are one of the only ways, rural Nigerians enjoy the dividends of democracy.

Not unusual, for a smaller bank to acquire a larger bank.

While it's not common for banks with larger liquidity and asset bases to be acquired by banks with smaller liquidity and asset bases due to regulatory and financial considerations, there have been instances where such acquisitions have occurred, albeit in specific contexts. One example is the acquisition of Wachovia Corporation (USA Bank) by Wells Fargo(USA Bank) during the financial crisis in 2008.

At the time of the acquisition, Wachovia was struggling with significant losses in its mortgage portfolio and faced the risk of collapse. Despite being one of the largest banks in the United States in terms of assets, Wachovia's financial condition deteriorated rapidly during the crisis.

Wells Fargo, which was relatively healthier compared to Wachovia and had a strong liquidity position, stepped in to acquire Wachovia. This acquisition allowed Wells Fargo to expand its presence in key markets, and solidify its position as one of the largest banks in the United States.

While Wachovia had a larger asset base than Wells Fargo at the time of the acquisition, its deteriorating financial condition and the need for a buyer to prevent its collapse led to the acquisition by Wells Fargo, which had the financial strength and liquidity to absorb Wachovia's operations.

This acquisition highlights how exceptional circumstances, such as those during a financial crisis, can lead to banks with larger asset bases being acquired by banks with smaller asset bases but stronger financial positions.[/b]
Politics › Re: Emefiele Awarded Billions In Contracts To Wife, Family And Friends - Witness by malali: 2:32am On Mar 12, 2024
There will be another Emefiele at the end of Tinubu's regime.

Unless we put in place long lasting reforms

Legislative rail guards, checks and balances, legislative and judicial oversights.

That will prevent this in the future.

How does China, UAE , Norway CBN Governors do it, that corruption is not this rife, can we adopt similar models ? And why is Emefiele not in Jail yet ?

If the right Emefiele gets there one day, Nigeria will never recover from the misappropriation of funds.

Dont forget all the foreign investors being lobbied are also aware of people like Emefiele still walking around as a free man.

Only way Emefiele walks free is if the Government is complicit in his actions.
Politics › Re: Bandits Reportedly Demand A Whopping N40 Trillion As Ransom For 16 Adopted Resi by malali: 2:31am On Mar 12, 2024
[b]Sometimes i dont blame these outlaws (Bandits/Kidnappers), because sometimes thats the only way they can get attention to their communities, the politicians do not even go there to campaign. This might be the first time the governor is visiting kuriga ! Their house of representative and senator probably live in Abuja with multiple wives and multiple luxury cars.

Unless these societal ills are tabled and resolved, there will continue to be crimes likes these, Once election is over for some of these communities, they dont see the dividends of democracy, not because they dont get federal allocation, but because the people sharing the federal allocation are buying houses in Abuja, marrying more wives and side chicks.

The government can continue paying ransom to kidnappers and fighting these people every regime or they can address these societal ills amongst the politicians that are in a caretaker role to these people.

If 300 people were kidnapped in a small community like kuriga, At 2 child per household we are talking approximately 600 parents, probably less, lets say 400 parent. I am sure some of these kidnappers are related to some of these children. You need 50-100 people to organize the kidnap of 300 people. So technically some of these people were kidnapped by their own relatives !

A fool proof method has to be set in place where the federal allocation to Kaduna state/and its local governements and also other states gets to every constituency.[/b]

Politics › Re: FG Orders NERC To Revoke Licenses Of Non-Performing DISCOS by malali: 2:06am On Mar 12, 2024
Even if the licenses are with private electric distribution companies, there should be legal clauses in the initial contract, that reprimands or makes them give up full/partial licensure if performance is subpar without any due reason upon yearly review. The licensure is private sector does not mean the oversight should be private sector as well.

And licenses can be re-assigned to people who are ready to perform or split up geographically. Just introducing a little competition, not too much will allow them sit tight.

Add looting of more than 10 million Naira by any government official.

In this modern era, you need leverage to "stand well well"
Its not just grammar,
You either have a lot of financial power
Or a strong army, Or strong allies
Grammar alone doesn't work
We are still trying to build a leverage since independence.

Blatant Fraud like this is the reason why Nigerians are in severe Hardship.
Not removal of forex subsidy
Not removal of oil subsidy
But when a few people decide to come together and steal what belongs to the whole country.
Capital punishment should be introduced for looting and corruption in Nigeria.
If not we are just running around in circles.

Nigeria is indeed complex.
Dwindling resources
More people to feed
Non productive culture
Poor retired politicians
99% of salaries from government.
The Elites who want a private jet at government's expense.
The neglected rural people, who have to cause insecurity by kidnaps to be noticed
The saboteurs, e.g Niger Delta Bunkerers, who are getting their own money independent of the government
Clueless administrators
Equally clueless oppositions

1- Which kind of job doesn't want you to bring your family ?
2-Which kind of job tells you to work so hard to retain a workers visa ?
3- They want to milk your good years and abandon you when you have nothing left in you ?
4- They do not give their own citizens these rules
5-These rules are enforced more for black people--- it has a racist undertone.
6-You will pay taxes like everyone else, but you have your civil rights curtailed-----This is slavery 2.0

Every mercedes benz you see in world, The owner has paid money to germanys economy.
Every japanese car you see in the world, The owner has paid money to japans economy.

If these people borrow money, they have the means to pay.

We are planning to borrow to pay back previous loans.....we dont make anything thats bringing revenue.

War ended the scourge of Al Qaeda, killed Osama Bin Laden, and decimated ISIS. War rescued Kuwait from the clutches of Saddam Hussein. War is horrific, and we should avoid it at all costs, but sometimes war is inevitable and those who seek war must be ready to pay the price for their actions. Hamas sought a war on Oct 7th, it has promised to repeat Oct 7th time and time until the Jews are ethnically cleansed. So war it will get.
Twoods, you are right, i am wrong. Kill everybody in Gaza, Kill the women, kill the babies.

Nothing like slaves,
They are given you a genuine advice you are talking about slaves and masters
More European countries take loans more than African nations,
Big Nations like Japan, Germany, south Korea, once took bailout loans,
The problem with ours is that in stead of the loans be used for the economy some politicians loot it
If you take loans , what do you intend to use to pay back ? You are comparing Nigeria to Japan,Germany and Korea.....lol
These are all first world countries, Germany sells mercedes benz to the whole world
Japanese sells cars to the whole world
Korea also has over 100 billion dollars in export.

Nigeria cannot even employ 50% of its citizens and pay salary with the crude oil exports

My friend, we cannot afford to borrow money.
Politics › Re: Only Foreign Borrowing Can Save Naira, Clear CBN Debts – EIU by malali:
I am not an expert, but i think we should look inwards and privatize some government assets.
And also seek debt forgiveness, we cannot keep borrowing and borrowing.
The interests rate around the world right now is crazy.
If you borrow money from anyone, you might as well pay back with slaves.
Which is technically what is happening now in the world, the western powers borrow us money that paying becomes difficult, Nigerians end up japa-ing as living conditions are tough in Nigeria.

Then when they get abroad the japa people are exploited. So technically they are not coming to capture slaves in Badagry anymore but they are making the slaves come to them.

Call the private sector business men
The ones that curry favors from you
import waivers, tax waivers, free raw materials
Government patronage, quasi monopolies.
Continue to give them these for free but mandated them to employ,
Nigerian graduates, give them tax credits.
Make it so attractive for them to hire Nigerians
let them sey up offices in remote places other than Lagos with tax waivers as long as Nigerians are employed.
They should pay atleast minimum wage, the money doesnt have to be a lot.
HIRE, HIRE HIRE.
