Politics / Re: Photo Of The Borehole Peter Obi Donated To Kwarbai Zaria by nedekid: 7:29pm On Apr 09
LegendHero:
Below is the picture of the borehole he donated to Zaria.

This is so ridiculous that a presidential candidate will stoop this low. How is this any different from giving people transistor radio like Sheu Sani did the other time.

Is this what he want to use to get Muslim North vote in 2027?
So someone uses his personal money, donates a borehole with tank, pumping machine (likely solar) and 2 taps and you call it ridiculous, you refer to him stooping so low? How much do you think it costs to drill a borehole up north? 10k, 20k, 100k, 1m, 5m?
The community that did not have water, do they now have water?
How much constituency millions or billions has the senator or hoa representative of that area received and yet no water in that community?
Ohh, you wanted a grand building covering the borehole, with big doors leading to it, with washhand basins and stainless steel panels etc abi?
You guys, grown men with bia bia on your blokos just would not outgrow your pettiness.

Next thing from nowhere cso started having unwarranted queries, infact he was about to be sacked. Out of no where, he received anonymous tip to go make peace with that 17-18 years old fresh yellow smallie. Immediately he did that, and started respecting her, miraculously, no more wahala, infact his pay was increased.

Travel / Re: CNN Reporter, Larry Madowo, Protests Nigeria’s $215 Single Entry Visa Fee by nedekid: 6:28pm On Apr 09
Eleohjo:
To those Nigerian citizens currently attacking the Nigerian government, and especially our immigration authorities, due to Mr. Larry Madowo's post complaining about his $215 alleged Nigerian visa payment, do note the following:

The Nigerian visa can be obtained at $25 on arrival for Kenyan citizens, of which Mr. Madowo is one. The $170 is for the biometric fee.

Also, Nigeria has reciprocal visa policies with Mr. Madowo's home country, Kenya. I have been to Kenya multiple times. For many years, Nigerian citizens enjoyed visa-free or visa-on-arrival privileges at Kenyan airports. This was recently revoked. And you do not expect Nigeria to be pleased about this, especially as more Nigerians visit Kenya than vice versa. If Mr. Madowo wants to take a dig at African nations frustrating a "borderless Africa", he should look closer to home.

Moreover, Larry Madowo, who is a CNN correspondent, and who should have known that he is very likely to visit Nigeria, which is Africa's biggest economy, more than once a year, should have applied for a multiple-entry Nigerian visa, which is available to him for five years at a more affordable cost of just $100, which is far cheaper than the Kenyan visa for Nigerians for the same period, and which would have eliminated the need for multiple biometric charges. He would have just needed to do ONE biometric payment.

Larry Madowo did not do his homework correctly. It is entirely the responsibility of a traveller to research the immigration requirements of the country he intends to visit. He was negligent in his responsibilities and is trying to blame Nigeria. For a journalist on a platform like CNN, he has demonstrated a surprising ignorance of non-proprietary information, which can be publicly sourced with a cursory Google search.

What he is complaining of is not even unique to Nigeria, as those Nigerians who are supporting him, due to their disappointment at the results of the last elections, seem not to be aware.

For example, whenever a Nigerian or Kenyan reapplies for a British visa, they MUST still pay for their biometrics and take them, even if they just had them recently. It is a standard practice. It is precisely the same process in Nigeria for which Mr. Madowo is complaining about.

Therefore, prudent individuals choose to apply for a long-term multiple visa, of which the British five-year multiple entry visa costs £771, which is almost ten times the cost of a five-year Nigerian visa. That £771 does not include the cost of Biometrics.

And I saw supposedly enlightened Nigerians, like Dr. Victor Oladokun, of the African Development Bank, commenting on Mr. Madowo's post as though Nigeria had erred and was not acting in line with international best practices.

Can Larry Madowo try the stunt he pulled with Nigeria against the United Kingdom or the United States?

I am proud of my country. I salute the reforms in our immigration system. And I, for one, will not sit idly while Mr. Madowo undermines Nigeria for an oversight he is entirely responsible for.

I visited Kenya with twenty of my friends and family for my fifteenth birthday, and I was asked to pay a bribe at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in the early hours of January 17, 2024. I have documentary and eyewitness evidence and can prove it in court. I am not known as a meticulous record keeper for nothing! However, for the sake of African brotherhood, I kept a lid on this, because "love covers over a multitude of sins."

Mr. Madowo, like a typical African dictator, is only abusing his privileged position in the media industry to bully the Nigerian Immigration Service unnecessarily, and again, I, for one, will not have it!

Reno Omokri
Oga, kindly explain the $170 for biometric fee to those of us that cannot make sense of it.

Business / Re: Naira Continues Appreciating Against Dollar, Sell At ₦‎1,100 by nedekid: 3:14pm On Apr 08
Mynd44:

Yeah, I know this sounds like a complex economic theory but it is like this.

Before Dangote, Nigeria had to import fuel (diesel, aviation fuel, petrol etc) and this put a lot of pressure on the Naira as we now needed dollars to buy these products.

Dangote does not even need to export before a change is noticed as since Nigerians will buy from Dangote in Naira, they don't need dollars to import fuel. That reduces to demand for dollar and eased pressure on the naira.

Obi used to say "Nigeria must move from consuming to producing economy" when we import fuel, we were consuming. With local refineries, we are not a producing one and this improves the currency by a lot.

Well said.
Let's sha be optimistic the naira will continue appreciating. Baba met it at ₦750, buhari at ₦200.
We pray it goes back to 200 these bunch of apc politicians met it and even better.

Education / Re: Tallest University In Nigeria To Unveil In Anambra State(photos) by nedekid: 10:59am On Apr 08

What was it when you want there? .... an office building? ... was it fairly occupied?.. or was like a ghost building? ... was there a/c? ... was it well lit? ... did you use the washroom? ... was there good water flow? ... well maintained? .... what floor did you visit? ... how was elevator service? ...out of 10 ... how would you rate the building?

As the headline says .... I believe this was instructed with the priority that it must be the tallest building... nothing else matters. Maintenance of this building will require a fortune. Glass panels missing.... what else? A/c has to be running 24/7 ... is it? We just don't like to be humble ... what we do must always be about the size ... not quality. How can you promote a university and say very little about the fields of study... quality of education ... fees ... studies etc?
Oga, oga, the man has done and is doing his, you do yours better considering you obviously have me sense than the man and will make a better building.

Yeah, lots of universities are like that, expecially those in cities. Eg university of east London I think is similar but smaller.
Notice the focus is on health sciences not the general stuff. That building will be more than enough to contain all they need. Possibly hostels will be located outside the premises. Do not forget that place was built many years ago originally as a research institute for foreign medical professionals, if I remember right, a complex was also built to house visiting researchers.

Travel / Re: Price War: Ethiopian Airlines On Lagos -london Route Now Cheaper Than Air Peace by nedekid: 6:38am On Apr 08
mobisonkk2:
Other airlines can afford to be running loss on Nigeria-London route while using other routes to balance up their marginal profits but can airpeace afford to run at lost? Truth is, airpeace showed her cards at the beginning of the game which is a wrong move.

Do you know how many destinations Ethiopian airline fly? Trust me, you don't wanna know. Airpeace is just a small fry.

Why cry more than the bereaved? What is you own if airpeace can compete or not? Your own is to buy ticket. Leave the business aspect to the owners. Which one is this over concern and caring? Abi you want to advice Allen Oyema? Ie "they showed their cards at the beginning". How do you know they did that? Do you have more sense than the billionaire owner of airpeace or his team of management professionals?
