Since when did it become a crime under Nigerian law to say someone is beautiful?

uselessgoat:
Why do igbos and SS find it easy to sympathize with corrupt politicians Many of those poverty stricken PDP followers who cant even afford a sausage roll are bragging about boycotting chicken Republic for making an advert concerning Thief metuh While they applauded AIT for making partisan documentaries about Buhari and Tinubu during the 2015 elections They claim Nnamdi Kanu is free to express his views by abusing Buhari and other Nigerians but are quick to criticize Chicken Republic for expressing their own views concerning Metuh. Talk of cheer hypocrisy :-/ Hopeless lpo-Baboons

will you guys please leave the SS out whenever you refer to the igbos. We do not support corrupt officials even if they are our kinsmen.

Little wonder robbery is on the rise, this cults guy takes to robbery at night and cult activities by day. And this is because we have a lame govt in Lagos, whose primary duty is to destroy market across the state, while they turn a blind eye to the activities of the cultist/robbers.

Eko onibaje!

They will turn a blind eye because those cultist are their boys. They use them as political thugs during election and at other times to perpetuate their heinous political crimes. You will be surprised that if any of these cultists are arrested a big shot politician will simply call to secure their release.

Lol
I support this guy to the very end, all those Africans living in the US should return home to develop their motherland.

Shatap. Do you know that remittances from our people overseas is the second largest foreign exchange earner after crude oil?

Elosky20:

Was buhari the president when oputa panel was on?

Southwest, cocoa era will soon be back. Don't be lazy, oyel money will soon stop.

If oil money will soon stop why not use your own gas to generate power

[size=14pt] Hmmm..... Some old women though.....

So chibok girls no get, Daddies, brothers and sisters Na only aged mummies dem get fa


Its now getting obvious that this Chibok girls stuff is a pure "political scam "

I only see some poor hungry women, hired to cry and later be compensated with peanuts [/size]

Let me give you 2 scenarios
1.) if you are right in assuming that these women were hired and they are not going through any emotional pains may your days be long and you will experience the blessings of God almighty all the days of your life.
2.) But if you are wrong in mocking and making light of their emotional trauma may you be visited with twice the pains they have been made to go through all your life and all those who are are supposed to help and encourage you will make light of your pains and mock you.

So u be don set to bulala ur secretary? Bad guy

If I recall correctly we recently had a so called world renowned economist in the person of mrs ngozi okonjo iweala who served as minister of finance for close to five years and AT A TIME WHEN OIL WAS AT ITS PEAK, but she was unable to make any positive impact on the Nigerian economy.

Many of you worship her, but here we have someone who has barely spent 7 months you all are expecting her to perform magic just because she is not from tour corner of the country.

While we are still nursing the wounds from the crash of the naira and hoping for a rebound the price of oil has slipped further to about $30. Read the report below:



Akinpelu Dada & ‘Femi Asu
The suggestion on Tuesday by Nigeria’s Minister of State forPetroleum Resources, Dr. Ibe Kachikwu, for an emergency meeting of the Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries amid the sustained oil price slump met with opposition from another member of the cartel, the United Arab Emirates.The global benchmark Brent crude extended its decline on Tuesday, slipping towards $30 per barrel for the first time since April 2004, before rising slightly above $31 per barrel. But the pick-up was short-lived as Brent later fell below $31.Kachikwu, who briefly served as OPEC president last year before Nigeria’s tenure expired on December 31, was quoted as saying that OPEC would soon make efforts to convene before the next scheduled meeting in June as the slump in oil prices was hurting producers, including the world’s biggest exporter, Saudi Arabia.The 13 members of the OPEC will work toward meeting in early March, Kachikwu said in an interview in Abu Dhabi on Tuesday.Bloombergquoted him to have said that members were already engaged in informal discussions with some non-OPEC producers, including Russia, to join any future production cut to shore up prices, he said.“We are definitely looking at a time frame in very early March. You will very necessarily have to have an OPEC meeting because the group first has to meet and decide on its position before having formal meetings with other producers to coordinate a cut,” he said.Brent crude closed at $43 per barrel on the day of the last OPEC meeting on December 4, and was trading at $30.54 per barrel at 6.10pm Nigerian time on Tuesday.OPEC, which supplies about 40 per cent of the world’s oil, decided not to cut production in December, potentially worsening a glut created after producers from the US to Russia and Saudi Arabia pumped more than demand warranted.I

it's a lie jor, so you support dictatorship and tyranny. I can't wait to see trump sworn in as president of the United States.

So u would rather have a western dictatorship? [sup][/sup]

The success of any venture or startup to a large extent depends on how well you can push it and market it, so give your best shot and you just might be successful.

Turbocharged:
You guys are just decieving urselves in the name of importing. How can some1 who has less than N300,000 want to venture into importatation? It all boil than to pride and misguided ambition.
There are a lot of things u can do with 50k or less and make more profit.
By the way, u guys are contributing to the death of Naija economy

How are importers contributing to the fall of Nigeria economy? If there were factories that manufacture those products and they chose to import them, then your point would have been valid but we do not have such factories in Nigeria.

jayloms:
I expect a further cut on the expenditures of the presidency and the NASS.

State govts should be working with a 'worst case scenario' mentality. They don't need to be told to beef up IGR within their various states.

FG must of necessity speed up the diversification process. Agriculture is the way to go here. I really don't know why we import rice still; is our locally grown rice that bad in taste?

All these economic hardships we face at the present, clearly shows that we never envisaged a time like this. I certainly hope Nigeria does not belong to the comity of nations with NFA (no future ambitions)

How do you beef up igr when most of the workers are going to be laid off and the few the companies in existence are struggling to survive? Where is the igr coming from?

gemale:
Let them place their order & deposit a certain percentage. Dis influx of funds wld convince Innoson 2 increase production & supply their cars @ d agreed period in which he wld b paid in full. Something lyk dt layaway service companies offer in d US.

U are funny. u want people to deposit money to buy vehicles they can simply walk into any car shop and buy cash and carry. What is innoson offering that would motivate customers to wait like this. Let him go and study how kia broke into the auto market and established themselves as one of the biggest auto brands.

Toasters every where, some are talking marriage just that they are way beneath my level. I have my own target

Why do people still say husbands are scarce?

With that pic in your profile i would like to be one of ur toasters

wheredemdey:
Ignorance is indeed bliss.


Stop yapping rubbish...obiaono recently purchased more than 100 dump trucks and buses from innoson this year alone.....all the free shuttle buses used by anambra civil servants are all innoson products same with the dump trucks.......innoson has a bug problem with meeting demands.....the company is yet to meet demands of 85 sedan cars for taxi services...an order placed by the state govt since July this year....

For ur info many eastern states are patronising innoson...the company is focusing on export sef....gis cars are hot cakes in Togo and so many African countries.

If innoson already has a problem meeting up with demand why do you want others to patronize him when obviously he does not have the capacity to take on more orders.

This is a rebuttal to the post titled "Now That Crude Is Gradually Becoming Worthless, What Next For Niger Delta?" in the post the op along with some ill-informed folks were of the opinion that the Niger Delta will become economically irrelevant in a post-crude oil Nigerian economy. The ND will not only remain relevant it will still continue to be the most relevant region for the following reasons:
1.) Natural gas :Natural gas will likely become the next cash cow for Nigeria after crude. Nigeria has the 7th largest natural gas reserve in the world and most of these gas reserves are in the ND.
2.) Most of Nigeria's electricity is generated with gas so the entire nation will continue to depend on the ND for both domestic and industrial power needs.
3.) Local consumption of fuel, diesel and kerosene will still come from the ND. Nigeria consumes about 39.66 million litres of fuel per day. This is apart from diesel and kerosene. Without the ND other sections of the country will simply not be able to function economically because we all know that transportation is the artery of any economy.
4.) petrochemicals. People tend to forget that petrol and diesel are not the only products you get from petroleum. You also get petrochemicals which are used in various industries.
We only need to setup petrochemical plantsbin the ND.

babaolofin:
I stop posting log time ago, though I was forced to come during the election to form intellectual online warhorse that fought the recent mismanagement and wastage ever witnessed in the Africa. Most of the comments here are childish and lack any intellectual research or analysis.

1. Those people that are complaining should start planning of how to relocate out of Lagos. One of their girl-child novelist even took the Oba of Lagos to an International Court, I am still waiting for the outcome.
2. Somebody said Ogun has only one cement factory which serves Lagos market. That is why we stopped commenting or even checking political page on nairaland. People are so lazy to do little research even using google. I believe only main market traders make such comments. Ogun has four major factories,
3. PortHarcourt ports will be made unseable for them by Ijaws after few years due to their criminal and selfish nature. They will try to dominate Ijaws and Ogonis, they will be resisted. Other nations will support Ijaws, Calabaris, Ogonis against them.
4. International airports abroad will find it easy to screen flight from their territory deeply. They caused most harassment and embarrassment being meted to Nigerians abroad.
5. etc

And you call this intellectual contribution? SMH.

TheDevilIsALai:
All it takes for Ogun free trade zone and repackaging companies to collapse is for the foriegn owners to quit and relocate some place else.

And there are many socioeconomic reasons that could lead to that.

But Aba will simply adjust to whatever trend and continue.

Why? Because Aba gave birth to their own industry.

You are beating your flat chest for renting land to foriegners who employ you as factory labourers and you call that development

Mental slavery

Industries in ogun free trade zone will not run without the power Which is generated from ND gas reserves.

Bryan37:
It's no news that only 13% of 2016 budget will be funded by the SALE of Crude

Which means that Nigeria is gradually diversifying its economy away from the Oil sector which is expected to even "nose down more". By d time Iran starts pumping their Oil into the international Market, also with d demand for cleaner energy rising day by day and d Cost becoming cheaper and cheaper, I can tell u that in d Next 20 yrs a bucket of Clean water may worth more than a bucket of toxic crude.


What will become of ND a report that has been raped by the Nigeria Government for the past 10 decade

I keep wondering if d OIL was a gift or a curse to this region which made them so Lazy, Corrupt and underdeveloped. Infact d most popular Slogan in d Niger Delta is " our oyel".

The only time ND man is considered in the scheme of things in Nigeria is compensation because of their Oil. Eg emergence of Goodluck Jonathan etc,

Now that the value is gradually diminishing and d reseRve trying, you wonder if this region has done enough or if they are prepared for the storm coming their way.

I must confess, am happy we re moving away from Oil and you are happy too but what will become of our brothers who only relevant is dependent on CRUDE

You are very dumb. The gas that Nigeria sells to other countries which is likely to be the next cash cow where do you think the gas reserves are from? As a matter of fact without the ND you won't even have electricity in other parts of the country.

lol...see this nigga...my parents have been sending me money through western union since last year with first bank...why are you so outdated? anyway...see my receipt of collection and see the ORIGINATING COUNTRY...don't argue blindly

@tdayof come see this certified mumu oooo

Kenobus:
This is an insult to Nigerians! These guys are taking Nigerians for granted. If I consume 100Kw that means N1000 or N800. A flat consumes over 150 to 200kw in a month. I would rather pay 750

If you have prepaid meter then this is actually an advantage. Just make your flat more energy efficient and you will consume less power.

the reason for programming conventions is so that other dev can maintain your code in future especially if you work in a company.

FYI most browsers already have features that developrs can use to debug/

the only thing missing in the position is that programming is not just about learning how to code it also involves buiding or developing a logic to solve a problem before coding that logic in any language.
