He's giving advice forgetting that he was below average in his days at Chelsea. You played for Chelsea for ten years and not considered a legend or even celebrated

He is not celebrated yet he has his name permanently hung somewhere inside Stamford Bridge
He was below average yet he played under every single coach that were in charge of Chelsea during his ten year reign.
He has won everything that needs to be won as far as football being a team sport is concerned.

Oga go outside go wash that alcohol wey you take away.

It has started!
Can't imagine the fears of illegal Nigerians in USA now.

Caleycash:
No mind them... even agents themselves to get good house is problem!... and they expect them not to charge a token, because na dem carry person come township, mtcheeww

You have been busy replying people bashing useless agents, if you are an agent, tell your fellow coven members to act like humans and stop reaping people off of their hard earned money.
Useless people.

This one wey Mr. President just dey name everything after himself so

Soon Abuja will become FCT, TINUBU

This is good for our military men though, nice one Mr. President.

I hope allocation will be on merit and not some ogas allocating the flats to themselves.

WriterNig:
I swear.

People wey dey produce missile like cigarettes.

They'll make it rain on you.

What good is your missiles if you can't protect the people in high places in your government?
So all those scientists and generals killed right inside Iran can't be protected by them abi.

There's absolutely nothing in common between Nigeria and USA when it comes to good governance.

That's my wish for the scammer(s)

MasterTeeUSA:
They won't believe you Sir until they japa and see the amount of work they have to do compared to what they used to do and call working hard in Nigeria lol.

I've not seen anyone that japa that claim to work less than when in Nigeria...even if you work remotely, your log ins and work is always measured and analyzed.

Oga I wan go ATM then you go home from the bank. Oga, I want to go to my children's school...Oga, can i get some of my salary in advance lol. Naija don't know until they know.

Do I get to be paid the same amount with what people receive there?
Because I really do not know your argument now.
How about they introduce something like 1k/hr for the least paying job in Nigeria and see if Nigerians will spend 12hrs working non-stop or not.
A country where minimum wage is less than $50 is what you're using to compare to USA or other advanced countries?

With all due respect Sir, the mouth you used in saying this, may it rotten Sir!

Corrupt and useless leaders.

zero8zero:
The 13% oil derivation, is it not the FG that's spending money drilling the oil?, how much is state governors spend in drilling the oil?.

Tell FG to keep their money for drilling oil, let the state handle the drilling and also keep 90% of the revenue from it and pay 10% to FG.

Now, the question to ask is if FG would agree to this formula.

Moreover FG does not pay IOCs money to drill oil, so I don't know where you got that from

GothamCities:
You don't understand.

50% of state revenue from tax should be retained in each state. This was part of the original bill. Instead of sending all your tax revenues to the federal account, you retain 50% and send 50%.

No boss, I'm in accounting world and I perfectly understand what they mean by 50% equality.
What you explained up there is the derivation aspect and not equality basis.
It should be 20% equality and 60% derivation

What do they mean by 50% equality??
So southern Govs are in support of this rubbish??

North is about to show that they really own Nigeria then.

It's well

Nazgul:
I don't need to know anything about the banking sector. I'm talking based on my experience.

How would you explain POS operators having cash and banks don't? You can't even withdraw 20k from you account. They'll tell you that what they can give to you is 10k.

Yet people walk into the banks to make deposits daily.

The way people walk into the banks to make deposits everyday is the same way people walk into the bank to withdraw.
Now let's say a branch of a bank has 10Million naira in their vault at the beginning of the day, you're not expecting them to load the whole of that money inside the ATM because they need to serve their own customers too.
Meanwhile, one ATM can take as much as 5-6million, imagine a branch with say 3 ATMs will need to have 15-18million to load(Take note that before 12noon, this ATMs would run out of cash)
Then we have customers (Fuel stations, supermarkets, etc) of banks that get huge cash receipts daily, instead of bringing the cash into the banking system, they would rather sell to POS operators at a profit.
So how exactly do you want banks to get cash to service customers?
You're talking based on your experience, yes I understand but you should also know that those within the system know what's going on and nobody would want to come out to accuse the regulators because of sanctions/fines and the rest.
No doubt that there's cash out there, but trust me the cash is not within the banking system and CBN should do the needful to bring the cash in.

Nazgul:
I've been complaining about this nonsense since.

You'll go to a bank ATM only to discover that they're not dispensing cash, yet all the POS agents around the banks all have cash. Before Ecobank Ojuelegba was demolished, there was a time I went there their atm wasn't dispensing cash, Access bank which is close to them too didn't have cash. Yet all the POS operators within that vicinity had suplurs cash. You can even request for 100k and they'll give you.

Even the banks who would manage to give you cash wouldn't give you above 10k. If you want anything above 10k go to POS.

Yesterday I made a withdrawal of 10k from a POS operator, she charged me N300. Yes you heard me right N300 to collect 10k. She told me that it's because of the new charges CBN put on them for 10k deposits and above. So if I want 50k I'll pay 1,500? What kind of robbery is that?

I've been saying this that banks deliberately starve their ATMs of money because many of them sell cash to POS operators who in return sell to customers at abnormal rates.

We are our problem in this country.

The way some of you just make accusations and assumptions online without even knowing what's happening in the banking sector is surprising.
Oga you know absolutely nothing about the Operations of the banking sector, so stop throwing accusations anyhow.
When CBN are ready to make cash available to Nigerians, they know what to do.

This is so funny, they should spend some weeks behind bars for disturbing the peace of Lagosians

Look at them still standing on the mandate inside black maria

Oga Finance minister, the senator asked valid questions that demands answers.

Why are you asking for a closed door session?
Mr. President made an announcement publicly on this subsidy issue, now that it's time to account for money saved from it, you're asking for a closed door session

If that VAT portion of the bill is removed, then there's no need for the TAX BILL at all.

Seems oga Tinubu don fold last last because same thing Oyedele said yesterday is what Bwala is saying now.

Very good
I'm very sure he will be blaming innocent devil now.
Make sure he spend some months behind bars.

May God not allow my family members bring global disgrace to me.

And Maguire will also collect salary at the end of the week

Anyways, at least he is a defender, unlike the one we called N.Jackson that's just occupying space in my club.

VVD was visibly angry with TAA today, seems TAA's focus is already in Madrid and no longer with Liverpool.

ibechris:
Some useless Ronus would say Tinubu has done well.

The level of poverty and misery in the land is beyond words.

Let those who haven't been truthful to themselves keep the lies going. U see,if ur parents aren't connected or rich in this country of today,u will suffer the consequences unless,u are lucky or destined to be rich.

But the truth is,many would struggle. I know how much I earned in a month,yet I am complaining bitterly. Last year,I earned about 56million,I spent roughly 20million on households alone. It saddens my heart to see this. The money I spent for extended families alone was crazy.

Let alone those who are still suffering. I travelled to my village,the truth is,I have been indoors for the past two days,uncles are calling me,many people are calling me aunties are calling...I just switched off.

No be me be Tinubu.

Nigeria is in a mess, it is only idiots who are tribalists and without reasons are those who feel the country should continue in this trajectory.

Just the truth here, even those who are earning big are feeling the heat.
Things are seriously hard out there.

Coldrux:
I'm one of them. It a shame I have to admit so.
I'm terribly struggling. At times, I lock myself and cry
I've lost every hope for a better tommorow due to my current situation which is really appalling. I'm refusing to pity myself. But the more I work hard, the more the hardship persists. It takes a lot of effort to work and earn money, but it takes just a few seconds for same money to finish on essential items.
I have to take care of myself and younger siblings, pay my rent, transport and do other things from the meagre pay I receive as a private sch teacher. My rent will be due by next month, & there's no means of raising funds. Who do I have to hear me out? It's a sad one.

If you're in Lagos and you remain a teacher for one year earning less than 200k then something is wrong somewhere.
Not boasting or removing the place of God but I find it hard to believe when people (graduate) say they remain a school teacher in Lagos earning 30k for a year plus when there are tons of opportunities out there in Lagos to earn higher pay.

Brother if you only come online to complain without letting those who are closed to you know about your struggles, then you are far from getting help o.
Tell people around you that you are job hunting and am sure help will come your way.

Perfect homecoming for the criminal

They should lock him up and throw the key inside 3MB lagoon

I'm very sure the odilis' did lots of abominable and despicable things for Wike to grow in his political career, but the fear of backlash from Nigerians will not allow them voice those things out to shame Wike.

Politics na wonderment

Really do not know the Evil spirit working overtime on airplanes and flights around the world but it's high time a stop is out to this o.

Less than a week now, I will start my own travelling every now and then, make God abeg o

DeLaRue:
Excellent. Well done.

The rest should continue to fold their arms or waste their time being abusive on social media demanding that 'Tinubu should bring down the cost of food'.

Tell them to farm, they can't, won't, or refuse, but they expect a President to do abracadabra in Aso Rock and use incantations to make foods fall from the sky.

You are a diligent and commendable citizen.

By this single action, you have contributed your small quarter to bringing down the price of beans in the coming months.

The deluded and entitled yoots should continue to refuse to farm and keep on whingeing. It's up to them.

How some of you just pick your phone up and start typing rubbish is amazing.

So every Nigerian who are not farmer can't blame the president for the policy somersault currently killing us?
Must everyone be a farmer? Those who work 9-5 can't complain abi?
How about you tell us your village then give us all farmlands for free so we can farm.

What useless remarkable progress are we making as a Nation that Dapo is talking about?

So Ibori still get mind dey roam up and down??

jazzman7711:
The comment shows very poor education, a total lack of understanding of the issue under discussion, pitiful economic illiteracy, and zero analytical ability.

So many grammar without educating the person you quoted.

Educate him since he does not know the 'issue under discussion'.

The truth is our naira is useless outside the borders of this country.

EmperorCaesar:


This is true

Its actually draining.

Its one of the few things i dont fancy about the state. The houses/rent are overpriced and aside the socalled highbrow areas of Lagos, then maybe some places in the mainland like Ilupeju,Yaba,Onipanu, Ogba, Egbeda, Festac and where again, houses in other places are very horrible looking with ridiculous rent fee


The parlour, kitchen and bathroom spacing in most of the houses would make you wonder if they didnt include them in the initial house plan...very very small


No even talk about agent and agreement fee.

The funny thing is, Lagosians boast about these things as if its a flex. Not at all, na suffer you dey suffer

My brother you no lie o, na suffer we dey suffer for Lagos.
Been looking for a mini flat since God knows when and you need to come see where this Godforsaken Agents have taken me to in my search for an apartment.
And you will just shake your head when you hear the ridiculous amount they usually call as house rent, meanwhile majority of these evil agents can't even stay in a house of 600k/year o.

kettykings:
The deductions are far more than the net pay . Why is this so.
I hope this is not what FIRS is planning for Nigeria

You dey fear?

What a message from the incoming president, but President Joe granting those guys pardon is just like granting pardon to the likes of Chidinma and co.

N1.3TN for God's sake

These people don just finish Nigeria patapata
So how much is the total amount received as derivation for them to have stolen such huge amount from it?

Speedy recovery to the injured and may the souls of those who lost their lives find rest in God's bossom.
