SillyMods:
Disgraceful youths.

Buhari has proved to be wiser and smarter than our so-called economists who know nothing about practicals but theory.

Many times Buhari has floored them on economics matter:

1. During the debate to fully float the Naira against the president's position not to do so, Buhari was eventually proved correct by attaining exchange rate stability without floating the currency.

2. PMB, against noise and wailing banned access to 42 items including toothpicks to save dollars. Today, most of those items are locally produced thereby creating local jobs and increasing wealth for the entrepreneurs who took adantage.

This time, the best president in Nigeria's history says that in a bid to encourage local food producers and make them competitive, the CBN should not provide dollars to food importers. Wailers and wailing zombies are masturbating and bringing up voodoo economics to tell us why it is wrong for the president to say/do so. Please tell us how best to encourage local production if not by making them more competitive? How can people produce locally if the imported goods remain cheap or slightly dearer?

Una no get sense I swear. And this senseless thinking is being led by a wannabe presidential candidate who was a deputy governor of CBN when GEJ sacked Sanusi. The idiot stood by GEJ. He was also alive when Jona the fisherman was ordering Emefiele to release billions of dollars for looting (in the name of fighting insurgency) but kept quiet.

IPOBites and sense are words and their opposite.

You want Nigeria to be like China, Korea, Japan, etc, but you don't want to take the hard decisions! Hypocrites and unpatriotic souls.

Fairy tales my friend. I guess the way to fix it is ban importation then go to sleep.
Nothing as fantastic as that.

Chepos1:
This will serve as a lesson to those who think Nigeria unity is a joke.

What is the big deal about Nigeria's so-called unity?
If we will stay united and progress good. If not, why not go our separate ways and move forward.

The so-called unity without any meaningful progress is always being promoted by our fake leaders as though staying together is all there is to nationhood.

KingAzubuike:
How can you kill a policeman who protect the citizens all because of a pregnant woman who has nothing to offer to the society. Now that the policeman is dead, crime and violence will befall all of you living in that area.

You think the pregnant woman has nothing to offer? Probably why it makes sense to kill her that way?
Wonder what makes you think the cannot catch the so called kidnappers without being this rash in their method. Their training clearly does not support them acting the way they did all in the name of doing their job.
I hate to admit we are not far from being a banana republic, as anything goes.

udoka2013:
Igbos have different bred of cows. They are okay with them.

Ironically they don't really have. Reason why they rely on same herdsmen for cow meat. If they really do have like they should, how will the herdsmen find a ready market for their meat over there? Same goes for other states in the south which are also under same threat.

alBHAGDADI:
One thing Nigerian HRs and recruiters need to respect is the privacy of job seekers. It's intrusive to ask or compel a job seeker to state the salary his previous company paid him monthly. They ask this question just so they can know how to price you down below what the vacant role is offering. Or perhaps to know if you will be demanding far more than the role offers.

The best way to beat that stupid question is by telling those who ask tje question that such is confidential, which is why you won't want to disclose it.

If they press further, tell them that the reason why it is confidential is because your previous company kicks against present and ex-employees of theirs revealing their salary structure.

If they press further, tell them it won't be fair on your previous company if you reveal the salary structure just as this prospective company won't like to see an employee or ex-employees of theirs exposing their salary structure to others or on social media. Make sure you say all of these with an innocent face and watch how the nosy people will change subject.

Nonsense. They can't state the amount they want to offer you because they believe it should be private for now, yet they want to know about your previous salary.

Very much on point.

SoNature:
The comments of some people on Nairaland shame me!


AbuuBilaal:
Very true. The army is the most patriotic of all citizens.

Nigeria first is their ideology. They leave their homes and hubbies to please the country. Yes they get paid. But then your state governor gets paid more than a them yet he's nothing close to patriotic.

Many of those who come here to spill thrash have never experienced military life. I spent 6years in a military boarding school and I know what it's like to be a soldier. It's a life of selflessness.

Dear citizens, learn to respect the military and they'll respect you in return.

The only people who have issues with military are those who don't like to obey simple regulations

The climax of such patriotism and selfless service is to invoke self-discipline in such situations where it called for and not resort to what will bring such disgrace on his profession. Will he use same approach his victim were say, dozens of terrorists who heavily armed with superior fire power and shooting at him to kill him? Wouldn't he apply wisdom and caution which is supposed to be the way to go?
There is nothing good about a soldier shooting at and killing an unarmed motor bike rider please. Unless we say black is white.

Nothing new.
Clear lack of discipline and professionalism by our soldiers doesn't it speak volume on where we are as a nation? And to remember that the system at run guarantees such a murderer to go scout free isn't it crazy?
Those who insist Nigeria is a banana Republic keep being proved every now and then, as hard as may wish it no to be so.

Having it done is just the beginning of the story.
Wait to see if nothing ever goes wrong later such that the perceived gains are eroded by pains that have no cure. Wonder what can be better than the natural.
Wisdom is the principal thing please.

Nothing new abeg

krendo:
Hungry Nigerian police are the biggest fools in all this really

Not necessarily so, but victims of same warped system where the elites win, the masses lose.

"You silenced and clamped down on the official opposition, on IPOB, on IMN and on all the civil rights groups but you bow and tremble before the Fulani herdsmen and covertly protect and support them whilst you pamper Boko Haram, secretly empower them and fight against them with kid gloves."

Such heavy words.

Unfortunately true, Buhari's DSS and security agencies have a track record of not foiling herdsmen attacks and killings, but remain committed to endless fruitless investigation after they have finish taking lives and causing mayhem.

franklingud:
The main thing that is annoying me in this whole Nigeria saga is that our musicians have played deaf ears, as if there are not hearing what is happening in Nigeria.
Only Falzthebadguy has shown little conscience.
Others are just idiots singing rubbish.

Even if they sing about what is happening in Nigeria, it will not change anything.
But at least they should show a little bit of concern. After all aren't they in Nigeria?

This has shown that buhari is nothing but a useless man. QED

Don't forget those musicians are not super humans, but still egular Nigerian people.

alphaNomega:
Well the people bold enough to do so have been killed off during the civil war. It will never happen again

Those bold enough not to be violent and not to be divided,do not need to be silent neither do they need to go to war, neither do they need to be fighting each other and spreading hate amongst each other who are fellow victims of same cruel elitist government, my good friend. For clarity sake, there are 2 major classes in the country: the elites, and the masses.

[b] To all of you people calling for
total Breakdown of the Government


You people should not forget that there are criminals in every nook and cranny of this country looking for opportunities like this to come out to destroy and Loot

Criminals can hijack this struggle and Libya and Somalia will be a child play

If Fulani herdsmen have any Agenda to invade and overrun Southern Nigeria, they will use this opportunity and when the Government has completely break down, there will be no one to call for help

Bandits will go on rampage

Fulani herdsmen will go on rampage

Kidnappers and Arm Robbers will go on rampage

Bokoharam will go on rampage, Cultists will go on rampage

Shitte will go on rampage, it will end in chaos and destruction if the government break down because there are too many criminals in Nigeria

It will be every man for himself

Don't give criminals chance to hijack this struggle or else Somalia and Libya will be child play [/b]

Total government breakdown can never be the target of such peaceful protests but to drive government to perform their true functions. If government was true to itself and focused on its core duties, why will well meaning Nigerians be on the streets in protest? To protest against good governance?

Christophorus:
Blunt it, this is Nigeria, nothing will happen, period.

Yorubas, when you ask them how market:

Time will come when you will no longer be such questions. The people should be bold enough to look beyond such. The day people unite their oppressive government will feel threatened and take them seriously.

Princetom1 unfortunately lost his dad this morning.it was a long battle for his dad but he breath his last few hours ago. I don't know how many people reached out to him the first time he asked for help re this particular situation but now is the time he needs us more than ever. Kindly refer to his thread. May we not suffer the loss of a loved one.

Really sad. Shocked to hear this.
Wish him and family courage this trying time.

ednut1:
Welcome to Nigeria where people prefer to hear its fulani herdmen. Communal clashes have been going on in cross river . No one bothers to report as na only fulani readers wan hear.

You deliberately want to make seem like a mere communal clash. You definitely know what you are doing. These guys are known for blood and violence wherever they go. Pray your don't see reprisals and large scale blood letting by people in their very own communities. I guess eye-witness accounts mean nothing to you.

NwaAmaikpe:




Welcome home to the prodigal son.
Time to recoup the tithes and offerings you've missed and to show off those new denims and sneakers you just got.

I have zero respect for pastors...because I know firsthand that just like public speaking, it is a profession for most of them.
They rarely are in tune with God but only on the lookout for the success of their establishment.

The problem however is members like this who worship man and consider pastors as infallible forgetting that the norm now for most jobless youths who are tired of job-hunting is to enrol into a pastoral school.

But I won't end without giving the government its share of the blame.

Imagine if the coal corporation, Nigerian Railway, NIPOST, NITEL, Waterboard, Steel Industries and Refineries were working and jobs were surplus.

Do you think we would have had these many pastors today?

Sadly, not far from the truth. I wonder what is wrong with relevant stakeholders carrying out thorough investigation into the matter to either confirm the allegations (of rape by several women against the pastor) true or otherwise. Anyone not interested in querying this is obviously not interested in knowing the truth.

Naijafull19:
I am going to agree with Miyetti Allah on this one...

The truth is, anyone can wake up and say 'It is fulani herdsmen' just like that, with no witnesses, no one seeing anything, nothing. Just 'It's Fulani herdsmen'.

In times like this, one should wait for the Police to investigate thoroughly...but because, sadly, most Nigerians don't trust their police forces, and because the Police is underequiped....no one wants to wait or beleive.

Let's drop the hearsay. This is not a call for justification of acts of violence, but a call to let reason prevail, and a call to get our government to properly equip the police, and end cattle herding and crime.

Where government is known to wilfully refuse to equip police, what then?
I guess its impossible to have the so called genuine harmless herdsmen graze in their very own territory since their host believe they are murderers and so do not want them. Mind you northerners of other forms of occupations like trading are there in the south east and have a history of conducting themselves well, hence no accusing fingers being pointed at them. Herdsmen case is definitely different with a history of blood and violence. The first step is to separate them from their hosts, except you have ulterior motive of having the blood flow continue if not engineering it yourself.

Hereafter:
I think the low IQ is the issue, and it is more devastating when it is being displayed by so called educated ones. Religion, poverty and ethnicity have so taken away the sense of reasoning. The ability to analyse situations and reach a reasonable conclusion is lacking in most Nigerians. We often forget that the politicians are so powerful that they can influence a lot and make Nigeria a better place to live. They can reduce unemployment, improve infrastructure, provide electricity, improve security, why do they make it look like we need a miracle to achieve these? We you see people defending a government, you wonder whether we are living in the same country. What is the way forward Nigerians, is it revolution, restructuring or what else?

The bolded, very true.

Condolences best he can do. The president is proud to show he just doesn't have the capacity to deal decisively with issues like this. An old man in his late seventies what do people with common sense expect from a man as old as that even if he was a performer when he was younger?

Modphase:
and I was here worried Igbos won’t be joining the protest according to many foolish PDP Igbo supporters since It’s being led by a Yoruba ?!

Nigerians are jokers. When things deteriorate well enough, people will come to accept how misplaced it arguing based on tribal affiliation and the likes. Nigeria's wicked leaders remain united in their misgovernance and oppression of the common people irrespective of their tribes.

crestedaguiyi:
Afonjas, make una cry una cry

Bad government is all Nigerians problem o, not just a section of country. Divide and rule has been effective in Nigerias sticked leaders dealing with the ordinary Nigerians who don't look far.

ednut1:

Escapist strategy to the rescue?
While not totally bad travelling out, the whites don't really care when they treat us bad even if we are there because we have bad governments. All the issues bedevilling us are our problem, ours to solve, not theirs. Why should they be bothered.

Interesting times. This is democracy.

HeWrites:
General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has announced the kidnap of five pastors of the church.

Adeboye disclosed this on Friday during a talk at the Redeemed Camp along Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.

The pastors were on their way to attend the church’s ministers’ conference in Lagos.

Adeboye said the abduction took place on Thursday along the Ijebu-Ode axis.

He charged the congregation to pray for the release of the abductees, saying it was the first time such incident was happening.

“As a father, how do you think I should feel to hear that five of my children have been kidnapped while on their way to attend the Ministers Conference?” he asked.

Not getting funnier at all. Security MUST be taken seriously by all.
Interesting times ahead.

hopefulLandlord:
Sad

this only happens to lower level priests who trust the blood of a Jew to protect them

The higher ups know no blood of someone who supposedly died 2000 years ago can protect them so they take their protection seriously by hiring bodyguards while selling stickers with words like "No weapon fashioned against me shall prosper" at exorbitant prices to the sheeples so they can raise more money to afford more and/or better bodyguards

Look at the Pope. the oga @ the top of this man that died

This pastor died because he didn't have the blood of Jesus protecting him unlike the pastors above

Members should keep paying for stickers and reflective jackets to protect them just like the above pastors are using stickers and jackets

Interesting. Not all like it seems though.

Empty threats all over again. Nobody is going anywhere

Those killer herdsmen threats to lives of their victims is no joke!
It's mischievious trying to debase what is known to be a real problem, to give room to further bloodshed.
Southerners should just wise up as the herdsmen issue keeps spreading into the south, while govt willfully to do nothing tangible to nip it in the bud.

Princsk1:
PRESIDENT Muhammadu Buhari is expected to inaugurate the 43 ministerial nominees recently screened by the Senate after an Induction Retreat slated for August 15-16 in Abuja.

The Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Mr. Boss Gida Mustapha, in a statement on Friday said that following confirmation by the Senate, all Ministers designate are to note that relevant documents for their study and guidance, preparatory to the inauguration of the Cabinet shall be available for collection at the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (OSGF) (Cabinet Affairs Office) from 10.00am on Tuesday August 6, 2019.

According to Mustapha, Ministers designate are also requested to bring along and submit to the OSGF, their updated CV in soft and hard copies as well as any valid identification document.

“I am pleased to inform you that, in view of the need to allow Ministers designate enough time to study the documents (Status Report on Policies, Programmes and Projects; the 2019-2023 Road Map, and FEC Handbook among others) and considering the upcoming Sallah break, Mr. President has approved an Induction Retreat for Ministers Designate to be held at the State House Banquet Hall, Abuja from August 15-16, 2019,” he said.

He also urged those concerned to contact the Permanent Secretary, Cabinet Affairs Office (CAO), OSGF, for further clarification.

While all the ministers designate were cleared by the Senate, none of them has been assigned portfolios and it is expected that they will be assigned portfolios after the August 16 retreat or during their inauguration.

He can do even do that by Aug 16th, 2022 if he so wishes.
How does having them "on time" change the lots of the impoverished masses?
Next base jare.
