Politics / Re: What Does Crypto Contribute To The Economy by melodyogonna(m): 11:01am On Feb 22
3rdeyeNigeria:
Crypto has no benefit to local economy. It only benefit the owner of the trading platform and some lucky speculators (gamblers or trader).

Overall it can pull down a country.

Google: George Soros Vs Bank of England to understand how speculative trading almost bankrupted UK.
Wetin be this nonsense?
First of, other countries tax proceeds gotten from crypto investment... so it benefits their local economy, Nigerian government decided to be stupid about it

Because ETH no get brain. If he had his way he will use the same starting 11 every game without subs.

That's how he always kept playing Eriksen and Antony everytime till other players were good enough to bench those ones
I didn't expect ETH to be worse at rotation than Ole was but man, is he worse? To even rotate second keeper for inconsequential cup games na wahala

Can you imagine the nonsense we do in this country?

It's like sending naira to the USA and the recipient withdrawing Naira from Chase or Wells Fargo. It's absurd. Lol
I never knew the dollars aren't being changed. Few years ago I withdrew money from Upwork via wire transfer to transfer and it was automatically converted. That's how I expect things should work, and how I thought things have always worked
Politics / Re: Protests: FG Mulls Food Import If Hunger Persists by melodyogonna(m): 9:57am On Feb 09
falconey:
I don't understand so we have food reserve?

So importation of food is an option that they closed border for it for years? So until people start dying that's when you remember the old system that works?

Open border for food, it is a basic necessity for survival any other items should be heavily tax e.g phone, cars etc.
Buhari was a senile fool. He said Nigerians should die of hunger if they can't farm (said it literally oo, like, in an interview), but the funny thing here is that the sort of farm he always had when mind when he says things like this is hoe and cutlass farming, not mechanised farming like you would expect. He thinks farming hoe and cutlass can produce enough to feed Nigeria

Even though I have my reservations against this govt, the govt should try and at least get some of the things they are doing into the media to keep the people abreast.
The fastest way to know who is not in Enugu is "Peter Mbah is not doing anything". Very funny statement that

It's ridiculous. I think people just purchase land and build outside the proposed masterplan, very sad.

Education / Re: JAMB Staff Who Stole 15-Year-Old Candidate's Number Arrested For Chatting Her by melodyogonna(m): 4:19pm On Jan 30
SuperOnyi:

May God give us the wisdom to not take some of the videos we watch on these p*rn sites with titles like F**king a tiny teen school girl too serious; because the way these girls grow so big nowadays, you might end up like this young man.

From the chats, it was clear that he was just trying to catch her young because I would have said his gbola pushed him but he was reminded that she was just 15.

But come to think of it, does this woman really believe her "innocent" daughter didn't have a chat with this guy? This must have been what he felt was a the green light but unfortunately he didn't see the red light clearly.

My brother, beware of these little girls! Sometimes, I have to remind myself I'm over 18 and an adult because one could easily forget this.
The mom registered for the exam with her own number, it was the mother chatting with the guy. The girl probably doesn't know anything is happening unless the mom told her

I don't consider roads as the only sign of work,at the same time we have to tell ourselves the truth.

I've been in Enugu throughout last week & I've been asking what exactly is he doing?

There's no water in Enugu, what they did was largely cosmetic because there's actually no water, people still buy water or use wells.

Imagine 'water galleries' in this modern times,this is Enugu for God's sake & not one rural state like that. Former capital of Eastern region,Imagine that disgrace.

Is it now security? People were kidnapped in uzo-uwani last week,isi Uzo was in the news recently for an attack.

Enugu deserves better!

The flag off was in October & since then they've not completed a single road. I want you to understand something,both Otti & mbah came in the same day.

If you can't complete a road on time don't bother spoiling it. From what I've seen,they dug gutters & left it. Enugu urban has a very good road network but the roads are not tarred.

Do you know there's a road from golf phase2 to new-gra down to Nike area,near that federal government estate. Very large residential area but low population because of bad roads.

If he's not interested in working the roads immediately, don't spoil the existing ones. The only road currently under construction is that Onitsha expressway & it's not done by the state.

Please eh if there's any thing he has done that we are not seeing please say.
I have issues with how long the roads are taking, saying they're not being worked on is a stretch sha. Water has been a problem in Enugu for more than 20 years, I don't know why you're bringing that up seeing as Peter Mbah is proactively trying to fix it. So people without water connection to their homes, what should they do? Is the government supposed to connect to their homes for them? The gallery seems an easy temporal solution.

I don't know about the kidnapping sha, not that kidnapping isn't happening everywhere in Nigeria now, in fact Enugu seems to be among the least affected states.

But omo, all this na talk. If everyone says they can't see anything I should probably start re-evaluating what I see, maybe my standards dey too low or I dey fall for propaganda
Politics / Re: Enugu, The Pride Of The East. by melodyogonna(m): 8:42pm On Jan 27
I don't know about the underperforming part sha. If anything I'll say he is doing too much by blocking so many roads at the same time. Enugu state also has an issue of having terrible road network, I would not have known this was the case if I wasn't in Anambra few weeks ago and saw how all the roads are interlinked at every juncture.

I think everyone here can agree on something,
Mbah has seriously underperformed. We were hoping that he'll focus on Enugu urban & attempt to make Enugu better, but we can't point to a thing that he has done.

A tale of two governors, from the private sector Otti & Mbah. Sworn in the same day,& you can notice a stark contrast between the two. Within 8 months Enugu has been stagnant while Abia is already on the move.

Sometimes I ask my self what exactly is mbah doing? I even try to make excuses for him that he's just new in govt, but this was a former commissioner that should understand the workings of governance better than Otti but it doesn't seem to be so.

The remaining good roads In Enugu urban are already getting bad. Heavy duty vehicles now ply the inner city roads causing gridlocks everywhere. A typical 20 minute journey now takes one hour or even more during the rush hours.

A normal government would have started constructing alternate roads & bridges immediately after that bridge collapse, connecting premier layout to emene express & from independence layout to new Haven to extension.

Accessing abakpa- ugwogo is now harder, because while MTN are constructing the Onitsha expressway,the inner roads were just destroyed in the guise of construction. Leaving commuters to few roads thereby causing 'go slow'.

Dhamija is bad, dental road is bad ugbene 2 road is even worse,alulu abandoned. If these roads were good there would be no need to drive to t junction. Imagine abakpa with all its population using one road.

Amechi with a single lane, the gridlock is so frustrating,so i ask again what exactly is mbah doing?
There is a problem sha, you seem to consider roads as the only sign of work.
Another issue is that you're complaining about traffic because of all the work happening but also advocating for more roads. You just said the existing inner roads have all been broken, yet also saying even more should have undergone the same treatment to ease traffic.

Anyway, the solution I see is that they need to double down on these existing constructions and finish them make we see whether traffic will ease.

Yeah fingers crossed. Otti got some constructions completed, but Otti started months before Peter Mbah as well.
