Thank you for saying this cause I am literally going mad seeing my own profit being wiped off. I have been looking at areas or things I am doing wrong but nothing

nedekid:
Good question.
For the first time we had challenge yesterday buying diesel to run our operations. Anyway we bought 200l at 1600 per liter ie ₦320,000,i I wrote, that diesel is exhausted. It lasted 24 hrs! Mote part of our operations is on break so we are not running full generators.
What business will survive like this? As it seem, we are not using profit, we practically burnt out our whole capital on diesel. Our income is not covering 50% of our diesel cost monthly!

Just want to touch base. What do you think?

it has trended and it's no longer in vogue. Gates are starting to get straight without arcs or very little of arcs

Itzkingtimmy:

thank you for the mention

If we are paying subsidy, why is fuel still expensive?

if we're not paying subsidy, petrol should be above 1200 with the current exchange rates plus the cost of crude oil now

Are we not still paying subsidy now or not?


Where is the money coming from and who is funding it

floshady02:
Is it possible to see the full picture of this gate.

this is not a gate but railings

Below is something you can achieve with such material

Closing their airspace to Nigeria flights was a killer punch. E come choke us for neck.

Congratulations to them. They win this round and we will circle back

Still making delivery

Working on these railings today for alhaji

Obinnau:
what's the current price range for a gate like this in the Southeast?

1.3ml


This is completely with wrought iron and complete 2mm gauge pan

Now this is beautiful and strong

Started delivering the gates. One went to orafite this afternoon, another one will be going to Awka tomorrow and the other two will be going to Nnewi here

Finishing up on these gates

Paraman:
I'm in favour of the government importing on the short run. Tinubu should give Sanwo olu the go ahead to import rice paddy.

not just Sanwo Olu buy anyone who has the capacity to import food items should be allowed to. 80% of our masses care not about the price of dollar but the price of rice

Hezzyluv:
Shebi na dollars dem go still pay these companies wey go import ?

yes. Government can give them waivers on import duty and stuff. We're at desperate times and even if we decide to go on massive agriculture drive, it will take at least six months for the first product to hit the market.

Meanwhile we need to get foods in the market within the next three months

Anything they can do to flood the market with foodstuffs is acceptable. Government should allow for importation of grains and staple food to cushion the severe shortages

Hi Nairalanders
I'm so depressed as am typing down this content.
Its all about my relationship with a girl I have been dating since 2021.
on the first day I met this girl she was so amazing, she got all what I needed in a girl. she is cute, brilliant and smart, which were some of the reasons I gave in for the relationship.
things went well for sometimes after 2months I started seeing a character in her wish I didnt want to condole with.
she is so agressive when she is angry and she insult me at any chance she has. am a guy who is easy hearted and I don't like going hard on her.
after every of the scenarios she will come begging and I will forgive her.
As of last month we hard an exams to write and you guys know how university exams are time demanding and being focus and be prepared for the tsunami called exams, I told her we should reduce our time spent together so I will be able to be prepared for the exams cos she can not be of help to me becos of our difference, I am in computer science department and she is in English Education. she got mad at me for such a request and left my place and told me she will be going out with other guys to keep her company, after she left I called and begged her and she was still reluctant after some hours she gave a change and told me to come spend a night in her apartment, I objected BT later gave up and went to see her. In her place that night she was cool with me we were talking and gissiting until the late hours wen I slept off, I was woke up with her taps on my back asking me I should wake, when I was trying to get my self In order she gave me a slap (this is what she likes doing to me) she slaped again it was so painful I was asking her why she did that she gave me again and again I counted it, it was on the 20th I slap her back she pushed me and told me to leave her Huz that night
that I should not get close to her again that she has a new guy already. I left her Huz that night and Neva return, she called after a week to beg for forgiveness I forgive her and told her am not into it again
am tired of the way she was treating me and am happy alone BT she is still disturbing me I can't block her cos I see that as a crime .
pls guys I need an advise.

omo your English is terrible big time

Nomyth:
Haba!!

How much come be gate?

this door is 700k. It's just cost of doing business

BreconHills:
Disparity existed in Nigeria before the commencement of the first republic. Social unequality is also a global norm outside of the Nordic countries. 54m households in the UK exist solely on government support.


The issue is the infrastructure and housing gap and not income disparity. These deficits have been accumulating since 1958. Population surge following of 1970's Udoji salary award and widening population distribution in favour of cities post civil war have exacerbated the problem.

Government has failed serially but in certain areas eg social mobility Nigeria has improved over the years.

while disparity is everywhere, the one in Nigeria is terrible. Government is telling the masses to tighten their belts while losing theirs to accommodate the immense wealth they are embezzling. In places like UK you mentioned,basic infrastructure are readily available. Light, security, water and education. At least even if you don't have today, you can get tomorrow because of the instruments government have dropped.


Honestly, it's extremely difficult especially now with the hyperinflation. Staple foods like rice and beans are now turning luxury

BreconHills:
Difficulties and challenges reveal who we are faster than ten years of abundant blessings. If you poke a dog and it grunts like a pig - then a pig it is. Wise people always discount short term noise. Were conditions ideal for paystack or flutterwave? Did they grunt? No.

When conditions are contrary look for the variables you can adjust to shift the battlefield. Shouting and complaining does nothing.

if you have access to the top, let them make life less stressful for the masses. People can barely afford to eat.

The disparity between the rich and the poor is too wide

Gen2men:
very scary

nightmarish actually. The sad thing is that there's no end in sight

FreeStuffsNG:
The landing of 2Africa in Nigeria will supercharge Nigeria’s digital economy, creating space for a vibrant ecosystem bringing digital services to millions of Nigerians in line with the government’s vision for a thriving digital economy.


Another major milestone investment in Lagos.
Lagos has done it again. When the naysayers say there's casting down just know that there's a lifting up. On same day they were spreading doom and gloom, the the longest under-water cable in the world landed in Lagos.

That's how as a nation, we will as patriotic Nigerians, work extremely hard and quietly overcome our challenges while the naysayers and unpatriotic elements will remain caught in their own negativity.

This is the best time to invest in Lagos if you love Lagos and you love the owners of the land so that the land of Lagos can bless your investment. Invest in Lagos for great the best returns on investment and investors friendly experience.

All the enemies of Nigeria will lose las las. They always lose. God bless Nigeria for ever! Check my signature for free stuffs!

just shut up. No one hates Nigeria and you don't love Nigeria more than any of us.

The real situation is what is pushing people into saying terrible things about this country. The inability of our leaders to truly push this country to its place and the difficulty people experience in getting basic things of life. Millions of people in Nigeria will sleep tonight without electricity and more people will wake up tomorrow morning not knowing where the meal is coming from.


So just shut up and shut it perfectly

saydfact:
is warehousing free? NO.

Expect to pay a certain amount more - but no the current rate. however expect to pay more.

Let me explain - If his shop can accommodate 1000 bags of cement only, your 30 bags is depriving him from re-stocking 30 bags because its taken up space. In a normal situation he wont mind, but with the present situation its a lose for him too.

The other argument is, but he has used your money for business too, YES - that's why you wont pay whatever the present price is but you'll pay an extra on the amount.

My Opinion thou - remember business has rules including IF YOU CAN'T DELIVER, RETURN THE BUYER'S MONIES.

The worst that wld happen if you take it too hard on him is a police case and the police wld only ask him to refund 100% of the money you gave him.... (see why shouting shd not be an option?)

Goodluck

the materials below,I bought them almost two weeks ago and the prices have jumped from 25k to 35k. The seller called me yesterday and begged me to come take them that the temptation is way too much to resist.

That's what a normal human being does and not sell them and insist on being paid extra. I paid 100% at the point of purchase too

How do we raise the much needed when we stop the few exports

Solsix:
What about the one that was built by ibeto is it now working

Yes it is working

sonnie10:
This is a beautiful gate Sir. But the door handle on the pedestrian side might not be sustainable.

the handle is very much durable. It's usually galvanized pipe with aluminum mold at the top and bottom.

dangoteinlaw:
chai tinubu do this one.

₦850/l petrol plus a tin of paint of 9k.


Wahala full ground like this

After spending close to 70k to paint these gates, first rain of the year is here

₦2000 before end of the week

Indeed, food security is a major aspect of TOTAL security.

This is why CNG-kitted food trucks, trailers, and mass transit buses should have been introduced within the first 5 to 6 months of the emergence of a new administration. Since CNG costs N200/kg, and is way cheaper than LPG, PMS, diesel, etc, the cost of transportation of foodstuffs and people would have been cheaper than even before the removal of subsidy, hence foodstuffs would have been cheaper for Nigerians. But the FG and state governments that were supposed to initiate the CNG project began to drag their feet and ended up complicated issues in the midst of hyperinflation.

Prince Dapo Abiodun had already started the conversion of existing diesel-engined mass transit buses of the state, but suddenly they lost traction and perhaps they were expecting Dangote Refinery to start early production of the various component of crude oil refining.

to the average Joe on the street and pa and ma in rural areas, they want results not English explanations of what went wrong or what should have happened.


Unfortunately this government love tales and reeling out policies which they don't back with real actions.

A bigger problem is on the horizon if food insecurity isn't tackled ASAP. Government should as a matter of urgency import basic food and flood the markets.

There are savings from subsidy running into billions

yarimo:
Peter obi and oby ezekwesili will claim they are not aware of it, but they are always aware when it happens in other places

are you and your masters aware that dollar is going to hit ₦2000 by end of the week?


That's what should concern you folks and not what a private citizen does with his opinions

Konquest:
This speculative currency activity by black marketers is a national security issue in any country of the world. It's NOT out of place to have a National Security Adviser get involved in this.

Besides, Nuhu is a former EFCC boss, police officer and a lawyer, so, he understands the negative implications of economic sabotage in any country. It can bring down any democracy and lead to other unintended consequences such as a brutal Civil War.

we have more serious issues than forex. You see food insecurity, that's what matters to the 70% of the Nigeria people. Majority of us don't really care about the dollar. We just want to eat and bandits have ensured farmers are not farming.

Naira versus dollar will find their balance when speculators are done speculating. Until then, let's secure our nation first
