PoliticsRe: FG Returns Petrol Subsidy, Retains Official Pump Prices by Montaque(m): 6:39am On Apr 03, 2016
this new subsidy payment wont have any effect. because the pump price has increased way beyong what subsidy of 5 naira can cure.
whereas all these trouble started when this govt removed subsidy to spite the hitherto policy and prove that it was a scam.
deregulate the sector, pass the PIB, thats the final solution

BusinessRe: The CBN Governor The Problem Of Nigeria Or Are We Getting It Wrong? by Montaque(m): 9:04am On Mar 30, 2016
We just discovered the CBN needed specialist skills and got approval from the Federal Character Commission NOT to advertise and instead to do targeted head hunts. And this is very common in both public and private institutions. Emefiele also got the Commission's Clearance Certificate after the recruitment because they supervised and ensured the FCC principles were followed.
Moreover the names of the Rich whose children were employed were less in number compared to the names of those also employed who are orphans and who are of common backgrounds.

If I may ask, is the daughter of Atiku or Arase or others not Nigerians who have right to employment in the CBN if found to be qualified.

Am afraid this is the focal point of this publication and nothing else.
To shove it down our throat that we can't do anything about it.
Change my foot.
This administration has a way of arrogance unprecedented in history.
PoliticsRe: Buhari Won't Sign Budget Unless National Assembly Provides Details by Montaque(m): 8:58am On Mar 30, 2016

Thank you.

The house is a major clog to our progress. The serve more as obstacles than anything. Nigeria should demand for their record sheet as much as they make demand to the executive. Wht did they pass? They should send a copy to the President. The budget is a law. How can you sign something into law when you have not seen the content?

The house is the one delaying here not the President. If they mean well they should send the passed budget to the President today.
If a budget is passed, or any bill at all, the president or the governor signs the official certified copy of it. So the details he needs are all in the copy presented to him for assent. This is just delay tactics.

President Muhammadu Buhari has said that the Federal Government was not considering the release of former National Security Adviser (NSA), Col. Sambo Dasuki, from the Department of State Services (DSS) custody.

Is it for the presidency to consider his bail or the conditions?

e be like say most people never school demself to see things from the standpoint of understanding... most of us have been trained to only complain and blame. granted, Nigeria is in difficult situation but Buhari policies concerning financial and fiscal matters are designed to encourage national output... we producing our things. should we continue importing razor blades and needles in this country or should we strive towards our own?
I am not PDP or APC zombie.. but this is just a fact. we need to shift focus from consumers to at least producing some things as the giant of Africa.
When government places a ban on something or try to discourage it's import, it creates alternative or bolster people that will create alternative. Just like was done in fish breeding in Nigeria when it's import was prohibited.
What has been done in the airline industry, no national carrier. What has been done in other sectors by this government. None

Quakertellicus1:
So you want PMB to let the dollars flow? That would leave us out of dollars to buffer the naira....leading to the naira falling,and inflation and more issues.

Or we should devalue the Naira?That would only make the parallel market worse...and won't change anything.

What is your alternative?
One question. What has buhari done to buffer the naira?
There are many options and he choose the one we are currently under.

If GEJ, the Mr Hero had won the last presidential election for the 2nd term, nothing would have been left of economy with the level of corruption that would have been allowed to go on unchecked; BH would have spread down to the South with above 75% of Nigeria under terrorist control; he and NOI would have started selling Nigerians to slave trade to make more money available for stealing; GEJ would have sold everything Nigeria; coup de tat would have been staged and either GEJ killed or arrested and kept in jail; Nigeria would have been thrown into unending crises; we might have had a civil war on our hands by now.

So, voting Buhari was the best decision the brilliant among Nigerians made. That golden decision has saved my country from irrecoverable destruction and total collapse.
The way u predicted the unsavory state of gej 2nd term was the way u predicted pmb 's tenure, but we all know how far.

I don't need to quote passages to convince u. All that's happening nowadays should tell u that we may not Al be praying to one God.
Revelation 13 vs 11 tells us about the beast that has great powers capable of great deception. False prophets were prophesied to be in array at the end time. Angel of darkness manifested as the angel of light
All I can say is that when people are more Co corned about miracles and breakthrough than they do for their soul and the peaceable Co existence with fellow human being, it's not from God. No wonder there are many churches n ministries in everyplace but high rate of moral depravity because people r concerned about miracles n who they will take out of the way to succeed.

PoliticsRe: Fuel Scarcity: APC Asks Kachikwu To Resign, Silent On Buhari The Oil Minister by Montaque(m): 7:19am On Mar 28, 2016
lastpage:
I wonder why Nigeria is so blessed with "educated illiterates" like you? huh

If at your age (I take it that you are not under 10yrs of age), you dont know the difference between a "SUPERVISING MINISTER" (which the President doubles as) ...... and an "EXECUTIVE MINISTER" (which is Kachukwu), shows that a lot of money has been wasted educating you.

Buhari as President and Supervising Minister is to enable whoever is the Petroleum Minister-substantive, achieve whatever project/vision he has for the Ministry, without the bottle-neck of bureaucracy at having the "President's ears".

If you were born by then, let me recall a similar situation in the late 80's when Comm. Aihomu was the Vice President under Buhari and doubled as the defacto Minister for Football such that the Coach of the National Team back then, Clemens Westerhof could easily walk up to him and demand DIRECTLY (with immediate attention and results), what his team (The Super Eagles) needed, to succeed!
Needless to say, Nigeria reached the World Cup under such circumstances, for the first time.


But does that exonerate the Coach, Clemens Westerhof, if he still fails in his responsibility, despite such "support" from the highest level?
Absolutely "No"!

So, asking President Buhari to resign or "taking him out" on such level is utterly foolish and shows that most of you despite being #Wailers, are glorified illiterates who dont know your left from your right.

I will suggest people like you study properly first, to Pass Jamb first, instead of making a nuisance on Social Media.

Tosh! angry angry



Lastpage!
So who should resign now;
Kachikwu- for being realistic
Or pmb- for allowing his ministry to go under
You should know that with this arrangement, kachikwu is not the number one decision maker in that office. So should apc share the blame between the two.
This is avoidable if pmb had heed the call to separate the office of the president from that of a minister.

From what you have typed you have made it clear you are in agreement that taxation is a necessary evil and a common practice.

What you are at odds with is what had been applicable beforehand, but according to this new government there is a change which would bring in accountability and true governance. Where the people are the bosses and would need max efficient use of public funds.

Maybe PDP would come along in 2019 and campaign to relief all taxes and give tax breaks to the middle upper class.

Someone complained of being charged for bank transactions 50 naira, and I'm amazed because every time I use an ATM machine I get charged about 10 cents and I have a bank levy of 23 euro or so yearly. If I own a cheque book that's another matter.

If I use my bank card abroad on certain ATM machines or POS it's a 2-4 euro charge
Why don't we start from the beginning? I pay phcn bill about 6k monthly but I can't average the electricity for 8 days. Sanitation too but the streets r dirty and we dispose our own refuse. My mums shop just got submerged in flood and the 150 naira she pays daily and the one she pays monthly cannot salvage the situation. No good roads, we operate our own borehole. In fact we run all our amenities ourselves down here.
You seems to be carried away by the change hype, we'll you may be excused, it's a farce. There is no change from the old system. Please they should ensure the proper use of the ones they already collect before imposing another.
And if u see the opulence of the ruling class, you will shudder. You must have heard of the CBN employment saga, that's how things go here.

Why are Nigerians so against their civil obligations, you use a service and don't want to pay a tax contribution for it.

They don't want to pay TV bills either.

Come to UK / Ireland and you'll find out that your phone bill at the month end is subject to tax at round 27% and it is clearly differentiated for clarity

TV licence comes to 150 Euro annually for every household which has an electronic device (TV , PC etc) the penalty for non payment is 500 Euro and I've had to pay that fine before.

We pay water tax here at 100 annually for every home.

It's time Nigerians realise if we don't want to depend on oil forever we have to start a system of taxation. How many people pay their property tax in Nigeria
You r not in Nigeria.
So u can't tell us more about the situation on ground. Tax is paid where you are and you see the dividend. Here we don't even see the dividend of ordinary phcn(electricity) bill, sanitation etc.
