Is there honour amongst thieves?

From the president himself to all his ministers and governors.... who's not a Thief?

Tell me one and I will give you 10k (Mods take note)

We are ruled by criminals and the evidence is everywhere that Nigeria is a criminal enterprise.

Anyone happy with this 25 years of lootocracy (esp the last 9 years) is demonic to humanity. Such a person needs exorcist cleansing to get back his or her humanity.

Beta Edu dear, please resume office and this time be smarter when stealing money. Kogi does not have airport or even runway so research. Bello made sure he used the money to pay ahead for his great great grandchildren's welfare

Ttalk:
In politics every move counts, it is a fatal error for Obi to have ignored congratulating Wole Soyinka, in fact, a belated message to the Prof would mean a push caused by Reno's dragging

. Your Agulu saviour and his adviser and not intelligent, and Reno is gathering this evidence as a bullet he will use during the campaign to send Obi into political oblivion. Sadly Obidients are too naive to see this

Did you just repeat this again and again? So it's true you APC party guys have had their brains replaced and you just repeat mumbo jumbo ls without thinking it through?

Na wah oh. What a way to live

Supreme Court of justice under justice Ariwoola did extremely well on the LG Autonomy case in the Supreme Court of justice

The spineless and corrupt supreme court didn't nothing. Its the directive of the president and for once he followed the expectations of majority of Nigerians and not few APC stalwarts.
Hopefully he sends a bill to National assembly scrapping SIEC and giving INEC powers to conduct LG elections

You’re wrong..

I watched that Ayade interview with Arise Tv where he was asked about Tinapa. He made some good and classic point..

I think the number 1 problem of Tinapa is the location. I’ll attach the YouTube video for you to watch when I find it..

We normally do not respond to people online especially ignorant folks like you but we choose to respond to you because you seem to be abusing your privilege of being ignorant on a global platform.

You are not the only ignorant person online. Please keep your ignorance to yourself, do not force it down other people's throat.

It is because of people like your that intelligent journalists do not abound in Africa because when we make a publication and present information that is somewhat alien to you, instead of you to do a simple research and learn from it, the first thing you do is to ignorantly attack the author. You even had the audacity to say that I wrote nonsense.

Look at the location of Calabar on the map again before you make a mockery of yourself publicly.
Geographically speaking, Calabar, Cross River State is located in Nigeria's South East. Whatever you designate it politically does not change the location on the map.

All this grammar to defend falsehood?

Calabar is not south east but south south both politically and geographically. How do you separate the six geopolitical regions?
The compass you dre there in not recognised anywhere in Nigeria.

Men be honest… would you date someone who’s a little chubby? I feel like men only want skinny woman these days and that’s something I have never been.

Dating has been super hard for me and I’m wondering if it’s because I’m a little thicker than most females I know, I’m not talking obsessed but thicker for sure.

So, men… does weight matter to you when it comes to choosing a lady to date? Be honest, let's talk.

This looks like cruise post to me. I sent you DM on a coule of occasions in the past but you didn't reply. I actually find your views intelligently fair in a humane sort of way hence my reason to approach you.

Good guys don't fall from the sky, they are part of society so you have to give them a chance so you can weigh them by your standards and expectations of preference.
Btw, I like chubby and plum ladies. Its part of our beautiful African signature

Reverse means giving subsidies on top the already subsidized education which is not sustainable.

Rather than returning electricity subsidies plaqued with corruption, the FG should provide the alternative renewable energy project in the other universities or those universities creatively solve their energy problems. They are the eggheads and solving problems is their core mandate.

Rent-seeking landed us in this economic problems. People will come online to loaf around after enjoying subsidies on petrol, electricity, food , education and health. How can such a system birth innovation and deep mental thinking ? Provide security, manage population growth, take away or reduce the subsidies and give tax incentives, student loan,etc to unleash our creativity.

Corruption and zero accountability landed us in this economic problems. If we had established strong institutions instead of strong corrupt men we'll be competing with Dubai given our resources.

Its still corruption that the military used as an excuse to intervene into politics.
Let's stop putting the blame on the subsidies on critical sectors that allays the hardship of the masses but blame those who superintend the way the subsidies were carried out through perennial looting from one generation of political criminals to another.

Some of you analyse the issues without looking at the root causes if the problems which is at a super high level and running at government on all levels. Also unchecked corruption which has seen our corrupt officials have more mansions in Dubai than any country bar India and Europe's biggest banks stuffed with looted monies from our commonwealth while they still borrow more to re-loot again
Saudi Arabia subsidises almost everything as a oil producing country like us . Do you know for instance, the same yam that's produced in Nigeria you buy for 3k per tuber here can be gotten cheaper when exported to Saudi Arabia? That's the extent of food subsidy there. Dairy products is even subsidized to over 50% there.

I no blame am, I blame Nigeria youth wey no won get sense wey think say OBI na there problem.

Point of correction, not Nigerian Youths. APC and RONU Youths
Over 70% of the youths in the middle belt and entire south support Obi. I can bet my left ball on that. Where RONU has youths support is core North and majorly South west States outside Lag. He lost in Lagos in spite of the intimidation and rigging due to youthful influence. That tells you that many Yorubas in LAGOS didn't support him either.

But without electoral reforms Obi and Atiku should threaten to boycott the elections. Even BAT knows what comes next ...

Another, amazing Sudanese News.

Meet Athiak Dau Riak, a 19-year-old girl who stands at 7 feet tall, whose marriage has gone viral this week in South Sudan. 3 men from different communities are competing for her, with one pledging 105 cows and 65 million South Sudanese pounds ($20,000).

The 2nd man is yet to reveal the dowry he is paying, but rumors have it that he will pay 350 cows or more, including a Toyota V6 and a standalone four-bedroom house to the girl’s family.

The 3rd Man, 500 cows and one millions USD .
South Sudanese youngest tycoon, Laurence Lual Malong Yor has finally awoken from sleep.

Malong is a South Sudanese youngest billionaire who’s been single for so long. He’s 33 and never gotten married.

Well today rumors has it that, Lual Malong is set to become one of the competitors in this marriage competition of Athiak Dau.
His offers are yet to be revealed.

In Dinka culture, marriage is not all about dating a girl but it is about your character and hers with good family background. As long all is studied to be clean, your family will agree and start to approach the girl with her family. If she is beautiful, different men may arise to compete.

Wow, this lady is a goldmine if she plays basketball esp in the NBA

Sane honest and hardworking Nigerians love you Pop 💋[/quote]I think every same and hard-working Nigerian on nairaland knows you are a REAL ENEMY of this country. You are such a disgusting Human being and don't care about the suffering of the masses. I doubt if you are a Nigerian. Maybe from Niger Republic

So a man that even the present APC government has accepted that he plundered the resources of the country and plunged over a 100 million Nigerians into multidimensional poverty is your darling daddy?

This is no longer an opinion as you may claim but an insult to the over 8000 Nigerians that died due to insecurity under Mr. Cluelessness. Its an assault on the sensitivities of Millions of Nigerians gnashing their teeth under extreme poverty this useless daddy of yours bathed the country with and it's a red flag on your credentials as a human being created by God. Some of you are Satanists to say the least that hide under party and ethnic politics.

If your darling daddy was so respected, why didn't he address the people or present a paper in the North West security forum held yesterday? Cos he's just a dumb fanatic with nothing to contribute!

After all the talk everyone will go back to their respective states and do whatever pleases them. Most of them will even back whatever the president intends to do and betray others for a pot of porridge

Whoever told these Governors that a Nigerian president at the centre is ready to dissolve powers is a joker. They only talk about power dissolution as opposition but once power enter their hands same people tend to hold on to it like super glue.

natedensel:
Is it just me or it's same with other guys, the embarrassment I feel is as if I'm the one doing something embarrassing, and I can't help the feeling, because of that I shy away from buying foodstuff or other stuff that will make me bargain.

Most times I ask my sisters or girlfriend to accompany me so she can do the bargaining or get the stuff for me.

My older brother bargains alot like he can't do without bargaining and for that I avoid going anywhere with him.

Incase you're wondering how I survive without bargaining, I just use people close to me when its something I must bargain for, but if it's something like clothes, I know the standard price for stuff like that so I just make an offer, and for basic things like packaged groceries I buy from supermarkets in more than one quantity.

Market research and bargaining to get real value for your money is part of the life skills you should have no matter your level of wealth.

The best manufacturing companies you see anywhere in the world has top guys bargaining and researching about their raw materials and other inputs of production to maximize profits

No wonder we have terrorists, ritualists, cannibals and all the other wierdos in the Nigerian police. The recruitment process of the NPF has always be a sham from time immemorial.

BAT can sit there in Abuja for 10 years for all I care and it won't change one single thing in your wretched life. He doesn't know you and surprisingly the people some of you attack are already beneficiaries of any government installed in Abuja. You think power automatically liberates kinsmen of the president? Ask Buhari how far, nature has equilibrium shit brain and you might be used as a balance in the long run

Go and get a job, idiot

Am sorry to shock you that I have a good job and been working for 14 years with a healthy pension couple with my contract business so you may be refering to yourself as jobless.

Pains you that you can't use Biafra against me the way you guys do to the Ibos as soft targets. If there's anyone cursed it's you and your fetish kindred that still breeds poverty to all your kindred. Human sacrifice savages!


I still maintain that your brain is mixed with sputum hence your chronic stupidity and anytime you insult GEJ unprovoked know that we'll come for you again.

Agbaya that has no job than to insult his benefactors in a faceless forum. Wish you could face anyone from the REAL Niger Delta face to face and let's see how you will be able to tell the story after that day.

Who are you calling Biafra? You are a bigger idiot than I thought. I am from the region that your whole lineages and so call political class are feeding from, we lock the tap and you'll be hungrier than you look now.

Seem you fell as a baby from a height which mixed sputum with your already shallow brain hence why you can reason like a cockroach that everyone that's not APC is Biafra. There will be rebellion even in your household if this hunger persist so maybe then you'll call your kinsmen Biafra.

Olodo rabata!

https://www.channelstv.com/2024/06/12/i-pity-tinubu-if-he-approves-unsustainable-minimum-wage-soludo/

Hypocrisy and Soludo are interchangeable. You didn't pity Tinubu when he approved 160 million SUVs for each legislator

You did not pity Tinubu when he approved 21 billion to renovate VP residence

You didn't pity Tinubu when he started a coastal highway of 17 trillion to last 8 years plus

You didn't pity Tinubu when his obnoxious policies has made over 14 large scale companies to relocate from Nigeria in the past one year

You are an hypocrite and elitists class. You didn't what local government autonomy so you can continue to pocket their money

This man is just a typical Nigerian politicians

georgeakins:
Jonathan, the ineffectual buffon that looted Nigeria to a stupor.

How stupid are you? Where is the loot? So what will you said of Buhari or Tinubu's already corrupt one year?

He looted but the economy was growing and we were amongst the fastest developing economies of the world

Perception; you only see what you want to see and hear what you want to hear

fullclub:
I don't care where you work or where u have worked. You idea that the government should increase minimum wage to labour request is laughable. If government should do it then private sector will have to abide by the rule.
Banks, bakery, big time super market will all have to pay minimum wage of 400,000 and guess what they will pass the price to final consumer which means prices will increase... Inflation

Private teachers wil have to pay 400,000k to teachers minimum and those selling in the market will raise same to meet the markup, government will only print more money to pay and it continues.. While productivity remains the same or drop down ... It bring inflation and purchasing Power of naira drops down...

Soludo former cbn governor share this same idea I am trying to pass to u.



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXRyNAQcgLM?si=Hm1XEEcOggJFESdx

https://www.nairaland.com/8122798/pity-tinubu-he-approves-unsustainable

I think the UK recently increased it minimum wage April this year from 10.40 pounds to 11.44 pounds but here see the percentage of increment u are calling for (from 30k to 400k) what does that tell you?
And you don't just increase minimum wage to whatever percentage u like, you have to take into consideration your GDP which is ratio of wage growth to productivity in percentages... This is how modern economy works.




Lastly
I am not a kid either am almost 40 here and I have been on nairaland with different username a while

I don't give a hoot about your background either and it seemed you understood my initial take upside down.

1. Labour demands are unrealistic but very reasonable due to the economic problems the political class has brought upon us
2. Labour knows no one can give them 400k or even the 250k they are advocating but as a union it's their job to bargain the most for their members welfare given the inflation rate and the ostentatious lifestyle of the political class
3. I think a realistic 90-120k might be ok and Labour will gladly accept it with conditions of a review of the current electricity hike
4. Soludo is a hypocrite of the first order cos he blindly looked away from the corruption in the government and was telling us how he doesn't collect salary but we know monthly security votes monies he pockets is more than 10 years of his annual salary. He even objects local government autonomy which says a lot about him. He shares the same theories with you that brought us to this level while corruption is overlooked. He's a born hypocrite and every civil organizations is blasting him this morning if you check insider papers today. Like Sanusi his successor they only know elitist theories that creates hardship
5. The demands on foreign currencies is caused by the political class cos the humongous money they earned legally and illegally are used more abroad for children fees, buying foreign products etc.
6. If you pay labour sat 100k as minimum wage it will increase purchasing power of a percentage of Nigerians cos they buy in the local market.
7. The governors are a bigger problem that the federal cos there are no checa to what they do since they handpick their assembly members and coronate local government chairmen. They loot recklessly and put the state's in heavy internal and external debts
8. The government is looking for FDI but harsh economic policies and environment has made 14 large scale companies to relocate in the last one year the latest being Total Energy. What policies will encourage production with these high cost of inputs?

Lastly am 41 and have been giving my inputs to alternative Governance since 19. I studied the SAP document of IBB and came out with a domestic template which was acknowledged. I studied NEEDS document too which was brilliant but poorly implemented. Like I said,, you are entitled to your opinions but I know what will work cos am on ground.

fullclub:
Am actually studying MSC advanced micro and macro economics in the UK. alongside research.

Like I said u lack adequate knowledge to argue anything that has to do with economics.

For your information I am not an APC supporter or anything.

Buhari was a mistake who messed the economy, who printed a lot of naira and borrowed heavily.. This lead us where we are today.

Nothing good should be expected from tinubu likewise.


But in all this, it's common sense that increasing money supply will only lead to inflation and nothing more and I listed so many theory that proves me right.

If you like increase workers salaries to 1million without increasing productivity particularly in agricultural yield production you are wasting your time because large money supply will chase the few goods in supply.. Abi na money u go take cook soup?

If you want to get it sort out in the long run then ensure that
1) farmers are safe n goes to farm unhurt.
2) ensure that farmers are heavily supported via various schemes
3) ensure that roads are constructed to transport this goods to final consumer.
4) stop excessive borrowing to fund unproductive venture..
If all this are achieved then there will be a balance between supply and demand in the aggregate level

Mister, you are studying MSc Advanced Micro and Macroeconomics in the UK and you think it's the El Dorado to Nigeria s economic malaise? Its just basic theories and to think studying in UK gives you any edge on economic engineering in Sub Saharan Africa then it's a blind joke. Its still the same IMF methods that are not applicable to our conflicted and corrupted system that you will be imbibed with.

I studied Masters in International Affairs and Diplomacy (MIAD) in ABU Zaria and also did my first degree in Political economy. All in Nigerian federal universities. I have also done researches in various related fields and presented papers on subjects ranging from Farmers herders conflicts, Federalism, Grassroot development as it relates to our voting patterns, comparative analysis and international trade in Nigeria, Electoral and judicial reforms, the Nigerian market trends amongst others.

So there's no faculty of thought in Nigeria with regards to discussing Nigeria's socioeconomic challenges that I cannot make credible inputs. So you are very wrong on that count but who could blame you since it's a faceless forum? Maybe you can go to my X handles and Instagram pages and see the engagements we make daily with Nigerians across all spheres. I worked with Centre For Democratic Development for two years immediately after graduation before moving on to three different CSOs and finally building our own CSO base on our tenets for nation building.

I joined politics in 2003 (NCP) as an undergraduate and contested and lost a councillorship elections which gave me a springboard to delve into grassroot administration as a part-time researcher and wrote articles that have been published and in the libraries of some councils we distributed to free of charge

So Mr, I took some time to show you a bit of myself so you don't think it's the usual nairaland nuisance you are talking to and also because you were cultured enough to give me a snippet of yourself. I respect people that develop themselves intellectually in any academic field and recognise the diversity of opinions. Like one of our tenets say, 'if you don't like the rules then get t the top and change it'. That's why we encourage young people to join politics but we try to inculcate democratic Norms to them that centres on accountability and transparent service.

If you check my nairaland profile it's registered since 2009 so you know it's not a child you are conversing with but I always engage with whoever demonstrates ideal arguments cos it's all.aprt of our political and social education as a nation.

In your submission on the solutions you forgot one big issue. CORRUPTION. Those lofty ideas you suggested have been implemented but due weak institutions it was all looted away.

In my opinion, you first build strong institutions through reforms and review of existing acts since the holistic constitutional amendment seemed impossible and some areas in the country felt threatened. People are naturally scared of the unknown and wants to maintain the order of things.

Once our legislators do their jobs without interference or corrupt inclined motives then we'll get reforms gradually.

My take
