IfnobeGod20:
If you think the price of petrol will slice below ₦200, you're deceiving yourself and you will soon believe devil is God.
Know that Tinubu believed in capitalism, we will continue to suffer price hike as far as Tinubu is a president.
Meanwhile, students' loan for few Nigeria is what you're celebrating. There are many indigent students that are still finding it difficult to cope in school. The government should publish those that have accessed the loan and let the people of Nigeria know the number. Stop celebrating mediocrity.

Which of the past president ever mentioned "student loan"? I will accept this kind of student loan from Tinubu. He has pioneered it, let future govt improves on it.

I am a realist, no Govt will ever sell fuel at 200 Naira again.

Nigeria runs capitalistic economy, so what do you expect Tinubu to believe in?

Blazetrailer:
God have mercy!! I am having so much fun with this idiot.

This just continues to underscore the fact that technology can never conceal stupidity or genetical imbecility. Or how else do I explain this? You stated that using "wrote" in place of "type" was incorrect. And I went further to show you that they are synonyms, yet because you have a cheap phone and some free data, you keep coming back to brazenly expose your idiocy.

Abi, kini itumo gbogbo radarada to n kor yii??

Is "Write" a synonym for "Type"? Answer is yes. check it anywhere. No long story.

Asking why some lecturers have a preference for one particular synonym instead of another?? Only a kid can type this type of nonsense.
This is stupidity taken too far. Anyone is free to use the word they prefer, so long as they are synonyms.

No wonder Nigeria is going backwards, when these are the type of the so called "educated citizens" that vote....... and little wonder they voted in a criminal with a shady past as their president.

You can see how Helinues has quietly abandoned you too. You are on your own.

I have your time today, its high time we exposed some of the buffoons here for all to see and earmark.

I have your time as well.

I will expose you as a confirmed fool. I have cited several references for you but you were still bent on trying to forcibly prove you were right.

Your attempt to correct someone has failed miserably.

So, if a lecturer expects the students to "type" their coursework, from your silly argument, he could put it this:

Students, your coursework should be "written"

You are so poor in the Language you claim expertise on. All "typing" is a form of "writing" but you CANNOT use them INTERCHANGEABLY.

You are a confirmed "Olodo" and "Otondo".

Can you see the folly in your argument ?. The joke is on you "Prince Charles of our time"

Blazetrailer:
Lol.... the idiot is using google headline material to substantiate his stupidity. You have written nothing. Your skull is empty.

Did you bother to check what I shared with you to understand why "Typed" and 'Wrote" can be used interchangeably? I doubt though, because you don't seem to have the capacity for such, given the gibberish you have written down there.

When you see someone buttressing the mistake of one Caucasian as the basis for her own argument, its called Cum hoc ergo propter hoc (with this, therefore because of this). It has been established many years ago as a thought process of simpletons!

For some more knowledge, do you realise it has been proven that Google headline materials are not usually the most accurate or most profound for knowledge/researches as they are influenced by various factors as number of clicks, advertisement rates, etc.? Do you know if I want my publication to be the first you see(even though it may not be the most accurate or most informed) when you do a google search, I could easily influence that by paying? I doubt you know all that because of the level of ignorance you have displayed publicly

....and I am sure you are always referring to Helineus in your post simply because darkness attracts darkness, buffoonery can only attract stupidity. She has simply reaslised your stupidity and abandoned you to your fate, alone, in the abyss of foolishness. She wants to improve and have more knowledge, hence she has left the battle of idiocy to you only.

You typed an epistle in order to justify your stupidity.

So, why do lecturers tell the student to "type" their homework for submission?

Why don't they say the homework must be "written" for submission.

I know you know the fact, you are just exposing your foolishness to the world.

Go to the Western World, and see how a lot of their folks speak and write.

Continue to live in a fool's paradise. The more you attempted to sound intelligence, the more stupid you sound.

The whole Nairaland is laughing at your silliness.

arantess:
As old as you are, sense has left you

The same way it has left your entire lineage.

Blazetrailer:
You know semi literates are easy to identify publicly. In the exuberant excitement to exhibit their superior half education, they unwittingly display their stupidity and superior daftness.

World over, it is known that "write" is a synonym for so many words, including "type", in the context of conveying a message, idea, or knowledge. Type by definition means hitting a keys on a machine to print a document and is a short form, derived from the word "typewrite", which is defined as a transitive verb for conveying thoughts, ideas, feelings, expressions, using keys(became popular around 1887 when typewriters were introduced). See the link and picture below if that could further help you.

https://www.thesaurus.com/browse/type#hit-keys-on-machine-to-print-document


"Write" is a synonym for "Type", sister. Stop misleading Helinues. Let her get the necessary education so she does not display arrant ignorance like you

You goofed and you exposed your ignorance, yet your silly arrogance wouldn't allow you to accept your mistake.

With your claim to understanding Queen's English, how many Nobel Laureate have you won?

How many people speak or write Queen's English in the United Kingdom, United States, Canada, Australia.

A Caucasian once said this to me: "You WAS eating....". If you heard that from a White, you would be smiling like an idiot and would not have the gut to correct him. The Whites do not care about your tenses once they understand what you are saying. Remember, it is their language and yet you are claiming holier than God. Such a nobody in the mix of things.

English Language is just a language like Yoruba, Hausa or Igbo, and not a measure of intelligence. Get it into your thick skull.

You thought you were intelligent by claiming to have a good handle on English Language, meanwhile, you are so poor at it.

Your kind thought if you could master English Language, you would be respected among the whites; conversely, they would not even understand the "nonsense" you are saying with your funny accent.

Keep dreaming

lexy2014:
Does "emilokan" mean "he would contest and win"?

Who are "you guys that keep lamenting, crying and gnashing teeth"?

As "Commander-in-Chief of the Federal Republic of Nigeria" that you say tinubu is, how has he made Nigeria a better country and how has he improved the lives of Nigerians?

If "Tinubu's followers stood on his mandate", are they buying fuel at N50 per litre while those who supported other politicians are buying at N1200?

Is the tinubu induced inflation and hardship affecting only those didn't support and tinubus supporters exempted from d hardship and inflation?

Get schooled in Yoruba Language - "Emilokan" means " it is my turn". Deal with it.

You still expected to buy petrol at 200 Naira, keep dreaming on.

Judge him at the end of his term. There is nothing anyone can do to him than to wail and cry

Tinubu is your President. Deal with it.

lexy2014:
He did "emilokan"

Kudos to the man that told you "he would contest and win".

He did contest, and he won. Today, he is your Commander-in-Chief of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, while you guys keep lamenting, crying and gnashing teeth.

I love the way KWAM punctuated his speech with melodious song in Yoruba Language.

While Tinubu's followers stood on his mandate, Obidient and Atiku supporters stood on Peter Obi and Atiku's manhood

Akanbi, na man you be

Felimax:
You were scammed!
2027 he will still scam you guys again be rest assured.

It's too early to judge.

Wait till the end of his tenure.

More so, he pledged student loan in the same video, which it has come to fruition. You hypocrites never talked about that.

Wait till the end of his term before you start conducting post mortem analysis.

Your Obi has settled for the position of the vice. Have you got the memo?

Blazetrailer:
To start with, you should have used "written" instead of "wrote" in your first sentence, which gives credence to my initial assertion that you are not educated well enough

Secondly, I thought i was simple and basic enough to explain to you why this is not a positive news. I went so low in the explanation,hoping you will understand the primary school level example, given the brazen ignorance you have displayed on numerous topics here.

If you still did not get it after reading all i wrote , then, apologies for assuming you could even comprehend the basics.

Please go your way. I am done engaging someone so daft. My bad!!

Sometimes, I wonder why most of you focus on the grammatical errors of others; it doesn’t make you sound educated, rather make you look like clowns.

How many native English speaker can type the way the guy typed? . Even the whites will score him 9 over 10 for his effort. English Language is not his first language and English language is not a measure of intelligence. It is just a language like Hausa, Ibo or Yoruba. In as much as you could understand the message being passed, that should suffice. So, do not feel like one “Albert Einstein”. Most English-speaking whites cannot even write out their names in English Language , and they also speak terrible English Language. Yet, your kind will still worship them.

Look at the bolded in your own piece, it’s meant to be “typed” and not “wrote”. You were busy finding faults in others while you have log in your own eyes.

Nonsense.


C: Helinuses, everyone

KosiGee:
I had a very pleasant flight with AirPeace from Lagos to Gatwick some weeks ago.
It was a female pilot as captain. One of the most pleasant flights I’ve had.
Anyone here know the names of AirPeace’s female pilots?? One of the air hostesses told me the name but I’ve forgotten. I’ll remember if anyone mentioned her name.

This was the smoothest landings I’ve ever experienced.

God bless that woman and AirPeace.

Bless the Pilot and co-pilot.

LocalFARMERS:
Want to draw the attention of the public to the fraudulent trick some tomatoes sellers use to defraud their Customers. With this trick, the tomatoe sellers will be able to sell half of whatever quantity they were meant to sell to their Customers. There by, defrauding their Customers of the other half.

How can that space in the middle qualifies for half of the tomatoes bought?

I don's seriously understand.

IBB007:
Lol…holiday too plenty for this country sha

Coupled with the fact that our economy mainly operates from 8am to 5pm plus plenty holiday, and people expect Nigeria to be like Dubai.

Nigerians in diaspora seriously miss this "awoof"

Trump has finally declined to have a third debate with Kamala Harris.

It’s breaking news.

https://edition.cnn.com/2024/09/12/politics/donald-trump-no-third-debate/index.html

Harris bloodied Trump in the debate.

Harris baited Trump and he took the baits several times.

Harris landed many punchline, including telling Trump that “Putin is a dictator who will eat Trump for lunch”.

Harris looked solid, clear on policy and very presidential. Trump looked a complete chaos, bitter and angered.

On the strength of this showing, the US might be preparing to have her first female president.

Trump was totally outclassed.

Ikorodu pple shld not talk o...I know how they campaigned for baba,even my then boss,a medical doctor (also a civil servant) made it mandatory for all of us to get our card and vote for baba.

Most of you talk nonsense.

Do you even know how democracy works?

Get it into your empty skull, it is not compulsory for everyone to vote for your candidate. Majority of Nigerians rejected your candidates and voted for Tinubu.

Your candidate even failed at the Tribunal, and Obi especially was tongue lashed by all the supreme court Justices, including a Justice of an Igbo extraction, for failing to establish his case and wasting the Supreme Court's time.

Respect people's votes, doing otherwise makes you anti democracy; it shows you are supporting "dictatorship".

Wait till 2027, and re-play your card, for now, Tinubu is your President and the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces.

kheny12:
Tinubu should even forgot about contesting for 2027 general election. He will be disgraced.

Nice2023:
I know for sure,no American President can entertain a drug lord whose records are known to them.

They surreptitiously avoid him at all cost because of what they stand for.

No wonder he is always running to India,China and Dubai.

Something should happen if it is going to happen.

The same America that has insurrectionist, sexist and convicted felon as a political contestant. If any country has fielded such as a candidate, the western world will have nothing to do with such country.

Such an hypocrisy.

My heart breaks for the Jordan's family.

Shame on these two Nigerians. These are the individuals spoiling our names abroad.

This should be a frontpage news for others with such evil mindset to possibly learn from.

Do the crime, be ready to do the time.

Mbanda:
What sort of nonsense story is this? Bring down the fuel price to 180 a litre and you people are there telling angry Nigerians, how many barrels of crude una supply to dangote.

Nonsense!

You are on a long thing if you are expecting a litre to be sold for 180 naira.

Maybe you should consider opening your own private refineries with a firm choice to run at loss.

Someone in Nairaland says “the finest houses in my area were built be people in diaspora” without knowing what they are into.

Yes there are some people abroad who build houses in Nigeria with their sweat and blood but there are also individuals who thrive on shady deals. Before you cite an example of anyone as the reason why you want to travel due to their lavish lifestyle, know what they do. Some use fronts like “importer and exporters “ to deceive people.

If you have someone that goes abroad and within 6 months, he’s building houses and buying cars, the likelihood of him being a criminal is very high.

A gunman opened fire at Apalachee High School in the US state of Georgia. Multiple casualties reported and gunman in custody.

My Opinon : "Saner" clime in the mud. No where it is safe. Every country has its demons. It is not a good feeling when a child leaves for school in the morning and the parents are not certain he or she would be back safely. "I left Naija due to the security situation" in the real mud here. We should always pray and hope for God's protection wherever we are. The world is becoming more dangerous per second, and nowhere is really safe

Ajaero is officially due another beating

darqly:
I like the faith most of the posters here have in the responses, most of it though is from a place of blissful ignorance. Selling crude to Dangote in Naira is a double edged sword; Nigeria is losing desperately needed FX and the so-called savings we expect will be negligible because most of his other costs are USD denominated i.e Dangote will STILL need to buy dollars to run his refinery especially because NNPC does not have the crude he needs to refine!! He will still import crude! He will also sell his petrol overseas if he gets good prices and that means our pricing will mirror what is obtainable internationally, bearing in mind that our currency is already devalued and many Nigerians are POORER under this cursed APC. Expect to buy fuel at N1,500 and above in the near future, whether you are standing on the mandate or not

You are such a cynic.

So when dangote exports its products , won’t he earn dollars in return? Won’t he use the dollars earned to buy crude oil elsewhere if there is a need for it? This arrangement does not affect our fx reserves in any way and naira will keep breathing.

Even if Nigeria sells crude oil to dangote in naira , thereby reducing our usd intake, is there still not a reduction in our demand for usd by 40%?

What were we using the increased usd warning to do in the past than to use it to buy crude oil internationally - a case of getting dollars in one hand and losing it on another.

This situation we are in is far better and preferred. Naira will breathe.

zeyt:
"40 % demand eliminated" you seem to forget Nigeria has import depedended economy. We import almost everything.

You will need to take that 40% from our existing consumption of dollars, the result will be heavy reduction in our demands for dollars and naira can breathe.

This is a simple mathematics

darqly:
This was the rubbish some of you said when Cardoso was pumping dollars a few months ago and NGN strengthened to N900. EVERYONE with small sense could see it was window dressing but Tinubudeens said Cardoso deserved flowers and other okoto. How much is USD today? Is Cardoso even bothered about the current exchange rate anymore? Your capital importation declined by 57% and you people are talking about crashing dollar. Dangote will still import crude because first of all, NNPC does NOT have the crude feedstock he needs, this is common knowledge. And he will not import crude in Naira either. If you like sell your dollars sha...you will learn.

So let’s agree with your ASSUMPTIONS that NNPC cannot satisfy Dangotes crude oil needs fully, have you forgotten that Dangote will export some of its product abroad and earn dollars in returns.

That dollars earned can be used to pay for the crude oil it seeks somewhere else.

So tell me how does this put pressure on the naira?

Can you still say you have any sense at all ?


Don’t forget all you typed was assumptions and not facts.

ednut1:
the crude oil they are giving dangote will reduce CBN Fax earnings tho

Focus more on the reduction in the demand for dollars. Yes, our earning in dollars will reduce but what are we using the dollars earned to do before, we were using it to settle our demand for dollars.

Now, our demand for USD has dropped , and our earning in forex has dropped, it's a good thing for the country than where we were before. Naira will breathe , Dangote will earn more dollars through its export and Nigeria will focus on another area to reduce our demand for USD .

Nigeria wins at the end of the day.

Ezmans:
Awalokan batstards have reappear on naira land today because of dangote personal business am ashame of them

Is US ashamed of Microsoft, Amazon, Google etc.

These are private businesses and the Govt role is to provide enabling environment for private businesses to thrive.

I'm ashamed of your cluelessness.

nnamdi640:
It seems you don't know how Nigeria thing dey end, after 2months, you will see the story they will tell the masses. As it stands, dollar will keep rising because the economy is already in mess

Why are you always sad when there is a good news in Nigeria ?.

Remember what you wish the land the land will certainly wish you back.
