Jemex003:



You're mad did APGA people didn't voted LP in Anambra? Did you even thought Yoruba people voted for Obi? If you believed that you must be deceiving yourself cuz Yoruba people just want to change APC and PDP. If Mr won LP primary we will vote the party not the person.

Please go and learn English then come back and correct this thing you typed

Politics / Re: Omokri To Obidients:19 States Plus FCT Can't Win You The Election by nairalee(m): 12:48pm On Mar 06, 2023
he can comprehend but prefers wallowing in denial

azpekuliar:


He clearly cannot comprehend. The 19 states + FCT are the states Obidients are saying Obi won outrightly. Then he got 25% of the votes in at least 5 other states to make the spread.
That is what Reno cannot comprehend.

She said I am her favorite person and she hasn't had a friend like me because most of the friends she had used her to get things from her parents. She also said she'll try to change. But she didn't two days later she continued. I tried to act clingy too maybe she'll get tired and give me space, but it got worse.
I'm an introvert, I like my space.

well, I give her an E for effort even though it lasted just 2 days.

I totally relate with what you're saying cause I've been in this boat before. back then I was so mad but thinking about it now I wonder why I even find it amusing now. that's why i dont want u to cut off from her completely.

but for the sake of your own sanity and to get your space u just have to gradually quench the clinginess in her.

after threatening her, I'm sure she'll promise to reduce. Make it a point of duty to always inform her when she's crossing the boundary. Gradually gradually she'll calm down. Like i told u before it ain't gonna be once. It will take your constant guidance and a gradual adaptation from her.

Put simply, you have two options
1) Cut off from her abruptly (effective but brutal)
2) Take her through the gradual process of healing (not instant but diplomatic)

I recommend the 2nd option. It's better to maintain friendships than burn bridges

I've done this more than twice. She's becoming annoying.

I really dont want u to cut off from her.
If she's as mature as I assume, then I believe she'll adjust but it will take time

Do u guys stay close to each other or work together?
If there's reasonable distance from your daily routines then u can keep giving excuses to avoid meeting

Politics / Re: Fuel Queues Return To Abuja, Others As Supply Dips by nairalee(m): 11:50am On Mar 06, 2023
Kobonaire4:
The honest reason for the queues is subsidy in place.

Because of the price controls inherent in subsidy, profits cannot be made for things like refineries, pipes, even new trucks and new boats, and so on. Matters are made worse by the fact that we don't have enough ports, and then subsidy cannot pay for transport costs.

The solution is to remove subsidy, and the profits will pay for everything. Yes, prices will increase, and yes, my fuel cost would eat half my salary if not more, but at the end, we get better refineries and crucially a better supply system...without needing to spend taxpayer money anymore.

P.S : For anyone willing to come and quote me to weep and cry and complain, read the below articles. It will answer all your questions on subsidies and why they should be removed.

1. Reflections on the fuel subsidy regime

2. Fuel subsidies in Nigeria , bad for economy, but lifeblood of politicians

3.Ending fuel subsidies in Nigeria can supercharge supply chains. (BERRY IMPORTANT...WILL BE ON THE TEST).


PS.2 : READ THE ARTICLES ABOVE. I have helpfully posted the links.

I would have supported complete fuel subsidy removal but Nigeria is not a sane country. After removal of this subsidy a microscopic few greedy politicians will have their pockets grow bigger and we the ordinary masses will not still reap the dividend.

sometimes in life just talking matters out helps

Sit her down, explain why her clingy attitude can be regarded as toxic and why its draining you
Make her see the up sides of being clingy and the down sides.
Make her understand that the downside outweigh the up side.
Let her understand that you value her friendship that's why you've not abruptly cut her off
Then let her know that cutting her off, though is your last resort, but remains an active option
Then advise her to reduce her clinginess so that you can both still maintain your friendship in pure happiness

You may get two reactions
1) She may totally withdraw from you (immature)
2) She may gradually withdraw (maturity)
However, don't be too hasty to experience this change from her. Remember habits take time to change.

It's better to delay than to do nonsense. If it will take weeks or months for INEC to fix their systems good and fine

Nigerians aren't in a mad rush for election. we're rather eager for better government.

INEC, do the right thing

The only difference is that in world cup games, the referees did not refuse to use VAR

On the other hand the same INEC that's supposed to use BVAS turned around and decided to abandon BVAS

No matter how much propaganda u try to create even a baby knows that APC did not get over 140k votes in Benin.

The rigging of APC in this election is something that should be studied as a pure science by any future intending rigger

was the initial autopsy done secretly?

If they are looking for ways to do damage control they better devise a better plan.

Demanding for exhuming the corpse for autopsy is a terrible thing to even suggest

this shows that Nigeria is too polarized along tribal lines.

OBI got overwhelming votes from South East

TINUBU swept the south West

ATIKU captured the North East

EVEN ORDINARY KWANKWASO got good votes in the North West

Inec just succeeded in discouraging Nigerians from voting

after battling hard to pass electronic transmission into the electoral law
after spending millions for immediate electronic transmission using bvas
after several assurances that the bvas will be used immediately after voting

the crazy chairman sat infront of the world and refused to use bvas,
refused to explain to us, his employers,
remorselessly told us to go to court (that they know is already compromised)

I've never been so hopeful and disappointed in this country.

Rebuke:




Lols. It's such a shame though. They left so many loopholes for rigging. I have been thinking to myself, why is it that we can't even just one thing completely right in this country?

In one of the videos I saw, an INEC Staff was caught trying to Manipulate the election result and people were telling him to do the right but he was adamant. The citizens are also a big problem too.
