Atiku has no shame.
He's one of the major reason the power sector is in a bad shape today

You get easily distracted, focus on what he said ie he will will keep challenging Tinubu for pushing Nigerians into poverty. Now do you want to doubt the fact that in the last 10 years Nigerians have been pushed into the kind of poverty never seen before, broken all records to become the poverty capital of the world? The country with the lowest life expectancy in the whole world? You, I mean you, how much do you earn a month, I say it and let's see how many full talks of petrol it can buy assuming it can even buy a full tank.
If you earned 150k 2015 you were earning $800-$ 1000 per month, today you have to earn 1.4m to be on the same level you were back then, you, do you earn 1.4m monthly? The other day on this forum people were talking of a paltry 500k monthly and saying it is big money, is that not poverty that has been inflicted on Nigerians by apc led by Tinubu?
We are talking of poverty which is atikus point, has poverty not affected all Nigerians abi you live abroad, and even if you do is it not owu that made you run abroad?

Reference:
Why don't you then ignore all of them and refuse to vote if only thieves are presented. Then there will be a Constitutional crises and real reforms can start from there as has happened in a number of countries in the past.

Why must thieves call you to vote them in and you consciously accept....what then do you expect to happen afterwards..

What kind of citizens occupy this country for heavens sake....

I just taya..

Question is why do you need a virtual dollar card when you local cards can work for international payment? Abi is there something else I am ignorant off?
Also kingly educate me, I always see adverts of business or people offering to buy gift cards, why and how do people get them to the extent there is a market for it here in naija.

SpecialAdviser:
No Igbo man in the list. There can never be. No Igbo blood will do that kind of thing

Na people like you de cause problems for proper igbo people, just like those charlatans that protested against Chinese and wanting to cause problems for the proper traders at trade fair.

omoredia:
Nigeria is not a real country. Foreigners interests are more protected than that of so called Nigerians.

What has protecting the interest
of the so called Nigerians brought us so far? Oga the Chinese trading here will be more beneficial to the generality of Nigerians, abi how does the fellow who holds a monopoly, over charge huge profit margins, then takes the money to his village to build mansions he only visits once a year, then oppresses all his village peolpe, how does thag benefit Nigerians as a whole?

Gotocourt:
No sign of Homicide, Natural death i guess.

Naaa, for Nigerians someone cannot just die, nothing like natural death, few years ago a 85year old man died after poor health for a while, till today the son is quarreling with his cousins claiming they were responsible for his father's death diabolically.
Man and woman will go to hotel for "short time" , one will suffer cardiac failure, the family will claim the deseased was used for juju or killed and calling for justice, police will kukuma arrest the lady, the manager of the hotel, cleaner, gateman, laundry man, cook and even other guests.
South Africa is not Nigeria, over there autopsy, inquest etc will be done to confirm cause of death, they certainly wount (as is done in naija) tell the family to bring money for autopsy or to settle them to investigate, pay for petrol, mobilize the team.

shox:
you don later buy that 7yr old phone wey you Dey beg for

Lol, he still needs to collect some more owomida to buy the phone.

Op, send me money for dinner.

Mariangeles:
The fault is from the bride's family.

Why couldn't they do what they could within their means, instead of waiting for one uncle that went on vacation to decide when the ceremony should hold?
They're not serious.

But principle of fair hearing has not taken place before making a conclusion. Ie hearing from the brides side.

You mean they ate Indian food? Chisos!
Indian cuisine is poison by default!
If you have stayed around Indians you will know, they must finger their food if not it is not palatable.
Anyway trust my guy putin, he would have brought his own chefs.

Fantastic! Maybe now we will have quality products and at good price.

lordm:
I need to buy like 20000 naira worth of shares

Waste of money, better chop your money and know it entered your belle. The dividends on 20k shares can be like 1k, the shares value may increase to 22k in 5 years, na that one make sense so?

ManirBK:
See this one o! The United States wey dey call themselves "leader of the free world" – UN don catch dem. War crimes for Iran.

If Iran bomb American school, America go declare war. But when America bomb Iranian school, na "superfluous" matter. 😒

Rules-based order? Human rights? Na only when e favour dem.

No other country has commited war crimes more than the US, none has commited atrocities and unrest, destabilize the world more than them, every where there is killings the US has a hand directly or indirectly. Talk of Ukraine, they moved nato to the Russian borders despite protest from Russia, they instigated the coup in Ukraine aka maidan protest, Syria nko, Libya, Iraq, Gaza, Nigeria and sahel countries nko, the killing of gadaffi and turning Libya into a faild state ensured their armory was looted hence the proliferation of arms in the hands of terrorist all over west Africa and sahel. Venezuela where they kidnapped the president and currently looting the country of not just oil but all their other valuables including their gold. Outright theft, boldly ie grabbing their oil, the ongoing killing of fishermen, the blockade of Cuba and starving its population.
According to the former cia director Mike pompeo, we lied, cheated and stole.

Metcheeew

obojememe:
i shld not b bothered sha ,i consider any one banging another man’s wife a dead meat that doesn’t value his life , as a living entity i ain’t worried about what dead people does

Forget that bull, just maintain your own because those doing the banging don't give a fk, both the banger and the banger, abi does it not take 2 to tango?

Gemini

Rubbish, why don't they want competition, afterall Nigerians will be better for it.
All over the world we have igbo traders and no one is bothering them, the south Africans and Ghanaians who stated resisting we termed them all sorts, why then will we do the same to Chinese here in Nigeria?
Abeg abeg if you cannot trade side by side with Chinese go back to your village or better still aria aria or onitsha main market.
I remember when China town opened years back how we could get bargains not until customs started disturd them and ran down the place.
We know our blodas will import substandard stuff then add unrealistic profit margin unlike the Chinese.

Againstthewall:
Hmmm, for 500k, they disbursed 473k. They deducted 27k as admin charges and not as interest. I think the same applies to your wife. I know of someone who got 500k and the guy hasn't been using his account now for transportations since last year

One my guy they gave a little less too called the next day, Omo, I pitied him. This guy has been facing rough times since he lost his job, he started doing some little contracting work. After a long time of soliciting business, a client advanced him some money, little money for his previous status but big money for his current financial situation. Guy by the time the guy moved quickly to start work to his shock money don zap from account! He called to find out if my wife faced similar situation, we confirmed it, if you hear the wail grown man make for phone you go pity am.

Againstthewall:
How much was the initial loan amount?

They gave my wife 500k, but the money that got to her was like 450+ (if I remember right cos I think they took the interest ahead), another friend they gave 300k. So the amount approved per person varied.
Omo last year on her birthday I sent her money, as it entered before the next day money don zap!

malcom1X:
Loan I no see NIRSAL I no see.

How can one get these loans?

It was given during that covid period.

galantjoe:
Very good diplomatic move.

Kudos to bat

Are you aware there is a surge in visa applications by nigerians to go to SA despite the chilling ties between both counties regarding the xenophobic issue. Why do you think there is such shames desire by nigerians to leave the country and head to a country killing and maiming them?

vickthourh:
Nigerians are really suffering in the hands of the sa...its the fault of the ones on top..



What will the boycott lead to... NOTHING
what will work will work out good, this is just for the citizens to see that the government is working.. But all na EYESORE

SA immigration said recently there has been a surge in visa application from Nigeria. Lol

Gotocourt:
Ekaette don use doggy hold Oga

Na sikira, kafayat, anifat them them, abi you don here where ekaette de play this kind music? 🤣

Jman06:
If we cannot pay 500k minimum wage, then full-time engagement of workers should stop while hourly rate wages should be introduced. By doing this, people can be free to work multiple jobs and get paid based on the number of hours they worked. Simple! We shouldn't be rigid about having workers be at work from morning to evening only to end up receiving peanuts as salaries at the end of the month.

Omo, naija is finished, I just calculated 20k daily and it comes to 560k for 28days, is that what people are saying is big money? Even mechanics earn more than that, the problem is transportation, feeding, nepa etc takes it all. Most people in reality do not even know how much they spend monthly, they think it is just their salaries but when the keep records of expenditure they will wonder where the money came from. That is why Nigerians flood churches, to seek grace for miraculous survival, lol. Afterall the redeemed pastor said his car ran out of fuel and he still drove 1000km, lol. Meaning on 100k salary God will give you grace to run expenses of 2m😂

Jman06:
Nigeria's labour market needs a total overhaul! We need to start paying hourly wages so that people are paid based on the number of hours they put in on daily basis. Also, workers should be allowed to keep multiple jobs provided they get paid based on the number of hours they put in.

Alternatively, government should increase minimum wage to at least 500k so that workers can earn what would sustain them for the month. The current system is not working! This is why many people now resort to cutting corners and taking bribes to make ends meet.

Wount that cause inflation? Not all business can pay that amount, rather inflation should be brought down and the naira made to appreciate in value. If you earned 150k 12years ago, you should earn atleast 1.5m today to live similar livestyle.

anochilar:
The median income in Nigeria is 65 dollars. ( Around 90k naira)
So if you are earning 500k per month, ( you figure out the rest)

Few people live on that amount in reality, money still enters from other means.

Angelfrost:
Any Nigerian earning such an amount and not living in comfort is clearly punching far above his financial weight.

That's an income over 70% of working Nigerians can only fantasize about.

Many of you just come online to pretend and needlessly grandstand.

That is why most Nigerians live a frustrated life. Truth of the matter is that people that earn less than that officially still spend more as money must drop by hook or crook. Your driver will sell your petrol or diesel, police will collect bribe, gateman will beg all the bank customers etc.

Britishcoins:
500k is just like 50k of 2023...

Today I don't even calculate my daily expenses, it can send man to early grave.... imagine those who depend on salary

You said it all, 500k today is nothing, that's tops, 3 days expenses for some of us and money no reach.

Yet when your fellow governor from nassawara wondered how you got the funding to build the airport you said it was money you found in the bank left by your predecessor.

seunmsg:
Peter Obi’s lies have finally caught up with him. Now that the Anambra state government has presented evidence of his debt and corruption, he should do the honorable thing and withdraw from the race.

If you believe Obi left debt of $123 billion then you may need to see a psychiatrist.
How much is the total income of nigeria along with the neighboring 6 countries, Oga it is not up to that amount.
