Thank you for your comment, but subsidy is unsutainable and has to go.

you lied openly, now you can't defend your lie.

nairalanda1:
Nigeria is subsidisng fuel now..

The landing cost of fuel is close to N1200 per liter. Even with the recent hike, the government is still paying something close to N200 in subsides or more

Without subsidy we would be paying something like N1300 or more per liter of fuel

It also costs N720 to refine a liter of fuel as well.

you open your mouth waaa, just dey yarn. So it costs #720 to produce a litre of fuel under Buhari, yet he sold a litre at #160? Na wa for una oo

Jungleluv5:
World bank and IMF they are our problem here in Africa they give our clueless leaders advice that will bring hardship to us so that they will run back to the them to borrow money at high interest rates. God will punish you all

they are not. They dint force you to borrow their loans. Every loan has covenant you must keep to. Blame your leaders who borrow loans to filter them away.

Quelme:
Useless world bank. Aside corruption, the IMF and world bank are the reason why developing nations are in a mess.

Tinubu will get it right. He is on the right track!!!

I really don't want to blame them. I see them more as financial institutions who give out loans and must ensure they dictate your financial tune to ensure you're able to repay the loan and their margin of profit. Blame the leaders who go cap in hand begging for these loans, and further use them to do nothing.

Who goes to the world bank to borrow money to share rice? The govts economic policies are a nightmare to Nigerians. You first create wealth before taxing people. Here, our govt is taxing before creating wealth.

I don't think I will ever be a fan of Tinubu nor his economic policies. I see him more as comprador bourgeoisie

in Nigeria we don't celebrate honest people rather we crucify them and then celebrate heartless and wicked people.
The life of the man reminds of a Nigerian movie I watched titled " died wretched"

In life, he was not celebrated neither in death.

trying to remember the storyline, but film was epic.

MissOpe:
Instead of simply dropping comments in relation to the issue above, some idiots above are busy celebrating the return of Nwaimakipe....
Nwaimakipe gbu ogi dia....

hahaha but the guy is a life saver on nairaland. We love him

The minister of Education needs to do something about our education sector.

It's not fair that studying for a Masters degree overseas will trigger brain complications for students.

How do you explain it that a person graduates with a 1st class or 2.1 in Nigeria, gets admitted for a Master's degree overseas, then slumps and dies either while still studying or shortly after studying.

This brings me back to the words of Aunty Rapuokwu, my CRK teacher, after catching me armed with almost half of the new testament hidden in between my armpit for use as "expo" during one of her exams.

She simply said, "you are only weakening your brain energy by cheating".

And she wasn't wrong; my first visit to the psychiatric hospital as a patient was from a supposed 'brain fäg' because I blanked out after being handed my Further Maths question paper and seeing Quadratic equations that looked like Hieroglyphics.

With that said, I hope village people are finally happy...because how do you rationalize someone not dying from the stress, heartache, poverty and hardship in Nigeria but then dying from a mere headache after succesfully integrating in a country of limitless potentials?

However, it is not right for a religious person like myself to sound so superstitious.

What if it is not underused brain energy or village people that are responsible for all these 'slump-and-die' deaths, but prayerful sidekicks wishing to replace them?

Mama Ramota still says that's the only reason she was scared when she found out I was cheating on her with a born-again Christian.

bros whr you go since? We missed your posts.

Afikoo:
The last time I bought a phone was in July 2021. A MI 11 Lite for 154k. The phone is the best phone I have used so far. Seamless, sleek. I haven't had issue with the phone .
There is a need to change it as I feel it's getting old and the camera keep crashing.

I have been researching on phone to buy and honestly can't believed I have to spend almost 700k to buy a beautiful phone that suit my taste.

I am confused though. Please suggest a very strong phone I can get with 700k that will last for me. Thanks alot

It worked for you doesn't mean it will work for others

in this current economy. Well I can't advise such, unless the lady supports same and is ready to support.

For some, marriage opens the door to prosperity. I've known friends who have nothing, and immediately after marriage u see dem going places.

Segzy19:
Not part of them
Jackson isn't a consistent striker

Enzo nkọ?

Freshtruth:
Pride wan kill Oshimen wetin be 155k per week at 25yrs of age wey u no feel collect? Year 2014 cristiano Ronaldo a balloon do or winner salary was just 185k per week. Greed

how much is Chelsea paying useless Enzo Fernandez?

AK284:
I bet you don't know conte,do you remember what conte did to Diego Costa despite being our best striker that season.
The follow season he sent him away via text msg and what was is offence? He demanded for increased salary.
About Chelsea being disrespectful to Oshimen I completely agree, imagine you want to pay him lower salary than about 5 Chelsea player that have achieved nothing up to date( fofana,chilwel,Enzo e.t.c)
That proposed salary is ridiculous!

I'm a Chelsea fan, but u support Osimhen's decision. The deal was an insult.

ajalawole:
Going to Saudi Arabia won't get him.more media attention needed then in England. Chelsea offer him bonuses on goals scored what was his fear. The 185k weekly Chelsea offer him plus bonus on goals scored would have move his salary to 250k weekly but nigga was too greedy to think.

if Chelsea value him, dey should pay him what Napoli is paying him. How much are dey paying Chilwell and James day dint kick ball last season?

CaptainJune:
I don't think Chelsea made any exploitative attempt to secure Osimhen's signature. Other big clubs were in the race for him including Al Ahli with their juicy offer. It was simply business for Chelsea and all parties involved. Osimhen knows that. Zonefree already hit the nail on the issue here: why did he renew his contract knowing he didn't like the club and how he was treated?

If, and I mean "IF" , he wanted to stay in the premier league I think he should have accepted a pay cut to join Chelsea and have his pay doubled after a year which is a better option than staying in a club that treats him as a discarded object.

accept a pay cut to half his current wage for a loan contract not guaranteed? Dats an insult to Africa abeg.

Kobicove:
Why then did Buhari keep quiet when there was a gang up against Tinubu?

what do you want Buhari to do? Tinubu is man of himself, Buhari dint force him to make harsh policies.

Nigeria is a failed country, 80% of processed food in the market are fake, aside from fruits eg orange, garden egg, chicken and the food I cooked in my house I don't eat anything,... Drink wine, beers, malt, coke,fanta, sprite and they likes is no no to me because those things are mostly fake.

wether u eat them or not, in the next 100yrs we are all dust.

adefitim:
Giving it to her does not make sense to me honestly

she wasn't given, she won it. Dint u see the votes yesterday? It's natural for her to get sympathy votes, it's a global phenomenon.

She's beautiful, copled with the sympathy and votes.

A305:
I am a Chelsea fan. I think the way Chelsea has handled this transfer issue with Oshimen is too disrespectful. If Oshimen was white, he wouldn't have been treated this way being priced down and under valued — loaning a top striker like Osimhen with option to buy and re-negotiate a reduced wage is not fair enough deal for him. What if they Chelsea decide not to sign him after the loan? The implication for that is, his market value will greatly diminish.


Osimhen too is somehow too greedy, not compromising enough to accept Chelsea's contract due to reduced wage indicates he is in the business of football to make that money and not for the love/passion of the game.

if you're Osimhen, will you go to Chelsea at a reduced wage when in the peak of your career? The blame is on Chelsea. Even if they won't increase his pay, why not maintain status quo as regards remuneration?

Nikki Bella dodged a bullet.

u think so? She still said a lot of positives bout him.

It is quite tragic that Oby Ezekwesili and Peter Obi are quick to condemn FG and sew threads to condemn tragedies taking place in the north while condoning the terrorism in their backyards.

Reno Omokri had to call out Peter Obi and Atiku and Ohanaeze had to condemn the act of the Amaka Patience Sunnberger before Obi realized the political advantage to be gained from it.

This is what informed his condemnation.

All forms of violence must be condemned irrespective of percieved political advantage therefrom.

did Reno condemn the statement of the person who threatened Igbos in Lagos? The govt needs to act fast and stem this ugly tide. Nigeria has never been dis polarised before as witnessed under this govt. This should stop. The govt needs to start condemning and making arrest to prevent further ethnic bickerings.

givedemwotowoto:
Peter Obi unequivocally condemned what the woman said which is out there all over the news.

PO also condemned the genocidal threats against Igbos by people on the same social space as the woman

What the woman said is all out there on the news

But somehow, the genocidal threats made against Igbos on the same space is nowhere on the same news outlets.

It's not just that people are attacking the woman, they are attacking her tribe which had nothing to do with what happened there.

I blame the govt for whatever the people are putting out now. From day one, the president ought to have condemned and arrested anyone threatening the unity of Nigeria. During election, we all kept mute for percuniary gain, today, see the effect.

The way she pronounces her name "my name is Onyeka Onwenu" gives me great delight. Rest on legend

Nigeria matter?

If you ask me, na who I go ask?

The matter wey you see so, ẹ heavy for mouth.... In Omawumi's words

State governors underdeveloping Nigeria.

The same truth is , black southfricans will regret all these hatred towards their brothers , they will call for help but no one would hear them

which help dem wan call for again? They are liberated already. The challenge here is other Africans developing their own country. Xenophobia is not a healthy thing in this century, but African leaders should utilise their resources well.

ednut1:
Jobless Africans. They will still both find a way to blame white man for lack of development in Africa. See wetin people channel their energy and time on. 🤮

when I read textbooks of how Europe underdeveloped Africa still being taught in our universities, I marvel in amazement. Europe underdeveloping us in 2024, while national assembly is there budgeting billions for themselves to smash.
