Lies. Unless you are an armed robber this economy is not for 90% of salary income earners in Nigeria

Kewtt:
See you. Professors and medical doctors are not finding it easy in this economy. E go soon touch you

So because professors and medical doctors aren't finding it easy in Nigeria's current economy, so therefore nothing should be done to improve Nigeria's economy because according to your logic, "it wouldn't benefit the ordinary man"?.... Sometimes if you don't have a clear understanding of a topic, the honourable thing to do is to either ask or just sit back and listen/read through comments, and perhaps you could learn a thing or 2.

Nigeria currently flares (burns away) up to 10 billion scf of natural gas monthly which roughly translates to $25 million lost monthly. Why do we flare the gas? Because we dont have the necessary infrastructure (pipelines) to either use the gas locally or sell it internationally. Nigeria also has over 200 trillion cubic feet of proven gas reserves just lying in the ground untapped, while the economy suffers.

In summary, many pipelines (and other infrastructure) need to be built to convert the wasted and fallowing gas to money. If Nigeria earns more money/forex, the economy improves. If the economy improves, it benefits everybody, including that "ordinary man" you talked about.

Gajagojo:
Our people perish for want of knowledge

Does every Nigerian have access to gas.
Why at last?
Have they piped gas to industries in Aba,Nnewi? When that happens we can say at last not celebrate putting our children's future in a pipe to Europe and our youths present at the same time

The more gas we USE the richer we will be. NOT the more we export

What do they use gas for in Europe is something every Nigerian kid must ask

If we don't ask that we deserve to be slaves for ever


Whatever they use gas for in Europe can we use it for the same in Nigeria Ghana Benin Cameroun.

Exporting gas is not foolish it is suicidal.

Whether the gas is exported to Europe or if it's piped to homes and industries within NIgeria, either way, it is still a welcome development and a step in the right direction away from flaring.

Go and get yourself an education my friend.

Kewtt:
this doesn't put food on the table of ordinary Nigerians. The FG should embark on mass palliatives and autogas facilities provision enmasse


I hope endsars 2.0 is not loading

Anything that improves the economy indirectly puts food on the table of every Nigerian.



If Nigeria starts exporting more of those gases that it flares, it translates to more revenue/forex income for the country, a better value for the Naira, more jobs, more income for Nigerians, a reduction in environmental degradation in the Niger Delta etc.

Benwallt:
LP is nothing to APC. APC will only up their game against PDP. LP is a gathering of criminals, fugitive capital offenders on the run.

LP is nothing yet upon the mention of 'LP', all of you get an instant erection?!

LP is nothing but for the fear of LP, you unleash your army of thugs, agberos and nincompoops on the streets to attack peaceful voters 'who look responsible' cos you feared that educated and enlightened people would vote LP. LP is nothing indeed!

Bigkoko:
Who will give Order to the police, army, air force, Naval? Asiwaju in Bourdilion/Iragbiji? Or HE Godswill Akpabio? Eat Corn, get corn-fused! The game was over for Asiwaju the moment Akapbio became Senate President!

Who gave the order to the police, army, agberos, INEC officials etc during the 25th Feb and 18th March elections?

If another election holds, APC will unleash mindless electoral violence against any Nigerian who dares to vote LP; they wouldn't want to repeat their earlier mistake of underrating OBI again. What happened on the March 18 governorship elections would be child's play if the elections are repeated. I wouldn't even advise any of my family members or loved ones to go vote.

After reading the title, I opened this thread knowing that 90% of the readers wouldn't understand the report.

LPG is has very low density, hence the calculation we have is 1kg of LPG contains 20.7megajoules of energy.
PMS is denser hence produced more energy per KG than LPG.

1 litre of PMS produces 31.5 megajoules of energy.

1 litre of fuel is 500
1kg of LPG is 550.
Fuel is still cheaper unless you have an explanation for energy efficiency with LPG cuberator.

The advantages of LPG is that it's neater and does form carbon deposit on carburetor and for those who want to be storing it for a long time, it doesn't degrade and evaporate from carburetor.
Most of us dont leave fuel in our generator for long hence petrol is still cheaper than LPG.

No need for the advanced megajoules and watt calculations. Several people have performed very practical comparisons and proven that at the current price of LPG and petrol, it cost less than half to run your gen on LPG than on petrol.

descarado:
I thought you were supporting yinubu after sitting on the fence for a while before the election.
What changed your mind?
Care to share?

I never supported Tinubu to be a president. Wouldn never have done that with a clean candidate like OBI on the ballot.

casualobserver:
I made the post, so it is not for you to determine what my argument is. I stated clearly all your lawyers are ibos. There are non yorubas on the list your posted.

In any event I am not engaging you further. The obi candidacy was an ethnic agenda and it has died an ethnic death like all ethnic presidential candidates in the history of Nigeria. No one has ever bec9me president of Nigeria without alliances outside his region with forces that matter. Not by pick8ng one nitwit Mauritanian nobody with no political base value or extinct 90 yr old ethnic leaders seeking their last public relevance before they die. Or thinking you can use religion to hoodwink people who in their existence have never cared about religion.

So because you deliberately chose to be blind to the Yoruba names in the list of LP lawyers, it automatically means "all LP lawyers are Igbo"?... Fake news is created by fools and believed (sometimes innocently) by people ignorant of the facts. But after a fake story has been debunked with evidence, it takes a chronically foolish person to still insist on believing and spreading it. You're actually dumber than I thought for still insisting on this pointless "Obi's lawyers are all Igbo" argument.
https://dubawa.org/peter-obis-legal-team-members-not-only-igbos-as-claimed-by-twitter-users/

Yes OBI's legal team is made up of majority Igbos, but there are clearly lawyers and SANs from other regions in that team, including Yorubas. Not as if it matters but if you want to lose sleep over the tribal make-up of Obi's personal lawyers, how come you've deliberately and dubiously blinded yourself to see a similar (and even worse scenario) in Tinubu's legal team where 9 (out of 12) are Yorubas and the remaining 3 are northerners?

ncoolsome:
So one must now apply federal character in defending a case??hope when on a sick bed a doctor comes to save u,u wld ask his state or when being robbed u will ask the state of the police,why not go and use federal character at the fuel station...mtcheeeww

I think you should ask the fellow you quoted to show us the List of Tinubu/APC lawyers.

casualobserver:
You claim you a National election, yet you cannot present lawyers from other tribes.

Such a lame attempt at derailing the argument! What's the relevance of the tribe of OBI's personal lawyers to the merits of the case?

If you dont want to support OBI cos of the tribe of his lawyers, feel free to support whoever you want; but stop irritating us with your myopic tribal reasoning.

By the way, if we all choose to be unfortunate by discussing tribe of lawyers, what do you have to say about Tinubu who 9 out his 12 man defense team are from the south west and the remaining 3 from the north?

Sharpsharp00123:
y is only her result different?
Y is she holding d same prototype of 2021 result?
Jamb n Airtel made it clear she checked her result 5 times n the same 249 was sent to her 5 times n they have even printed d same 249 result

So tell me how it is jamb’s fault?

Jamb has challenged her n even given her a 3 years suspension with enough evidence let her present her own

If u claim it’s Igbo victimization don’t forget d main highest scorer is Igbo too so

What's the meaning of Igbo victimisation? Can we focus on real issues here please!

To clarify your point, her result isnt the only one with irregularities; several others have reported irregularities too...

There might be many foolish people out there, but how can one be so foolish to intentionally falsify their results and award themselves the highest score?

In my opinion, if this girl really and truly forged her result, she wouldn't be bold enough to come on air to defend herself with a video. And if JAMB is so sure the result isn't correct, then it must be a case of a glitch in their system (which is actually very rampant).

WorldRichest:
EU should come and prove that at the Tribunal

They dont need to do that; they've already dropped their report which already provides the evidence to support their conclusion. It's now left for the black man courts to do what it pleases with the report.

In reality, who even needs the EU to tell us about what we all saw by ourselves?

muykem:
Peter Obi is a fraud. God can't be mocked.

What's the fraud in showing himself to large gatherings of potential voters? What's illegal about that?

Napata77:
They are ''100 years ahead'' only in your thick, dumb slave mentality skull.

If I told you that a Nigerian company called Proforce supplies at least ONE European country with weapons, what will you say?

Blasted thicko.

Lol... Take it easy with your aggressive patriotism abeg. Manufacturing a helicopter gunship is way way ahead of assembling an armoured truck. Dont get it twisted.

The convoy also includes camry 2.2 pencil light and mitsibushi L300 onuazu danfo buses?

Looking for men and women of integrity ina country like Nigeria is like searching for a needle is a massive haystack.

Most common way politicians (especially of the ruling party) effectively rig elections is by ambushing and changing polling unit results while on transit to collation centres. The recently passed electoral law requiring e-transmission of results was going to change the story for Nigerians - a mega game changer and everyone rejoiced!

Of course everybody knew the corrupt politicians would never permit e-transmission of results, everybody feared INEC was a branch of the ruling party and as such, nobody trusted INEC to do the right thing. The INEC chairman had to publicly swear several times in Nigeria and abroad, that he would do the right thing and would electronically transmit the results.

As feared by everyone, the INEC chairman was simply a greedy, corrupt, shameless, lying scum! After all denials, he and his organisation turned around to do the exact thing which everyone feared and predicted he would do... What a waste!

highoctane:
That's the issue I experienced, that arose leading to my comments.

I guess that's a different issue altogether...

Mental health issues.... God help us!

EquitableTech:
It does exist.
Fist Bank has introduced contacless Naira mastercard.

FRS:
It exists for a while now, I use it especially when my card chip is dirty and not reading the card. It started with GTB Mastercard but there's no awareness of it so people don't know. I have been using it for the past 10 months.

blaise26abj:
Actually GTBank gave me a contactless card late last year . I didn’t request for it though. I agree with you with the fraud part unless the Termibal will still request your password

Lovenorth:
Opay allows us to do contactless payment

Where did you guys use your contactless cards? ... I didnt know the cards existed in Nigeria before... but then again, are there really any merchants that operate contactless POS machines in Nigeria?

patrislayqueen:
It exist long ago in Nigeria, na you no know. Also, it requires card pin for authentication.

Authentication of each transaction?.... If the contactless that existed long ago in nigeria requires one to input their pin, omo that one no be contactless again oo

highoctane:
I don't comment on what I did not try or experienced

Your explanation ain't in order.
I woke up by 4.06am, that's my usual wake up, to read about this news.
I tried to transfer the sum of 50k from my OPAY to my Gtbank account, the response was I have exceeded my daily transfer, the transfer was declined, I scaled it down to 45k, the response was your transfer fee will be #405. The transfer was successful, I want to reverse the transfer from my Gtbank account to OPAY,same response, same result.
What you gonna say or explain once again about this?

Was it contactless payment?... if it's not contactless payment, then your issue is different i guess..

Leebeedo:
CBN hindering the velocity of money...hmmmm

If your really knew what contactless payment was, you'd be begging your bank to set you daily limit to N5k

PHIPEX:
I noticed this nonsense today on my account. This is another policy somersault. This people are only interested in frustrating Nigerians.

How do you peg my daily transfer to 50k meaning we should all return to queuing in the banking hall? Why are we returning to 1990 Banking system instead of going forward?

iSense247:
This is preposterous. They should have given us reasons for this policy. 15k per transaction and 50k per day is too low in this inflation economy.

It's sad that government is controlling how we spend our own money.

PrincessofDSS:
I don’t get it

Very preposterous, does it mean I can’t exceed 50k transfer using my app

OneCandleAway:
Does that mean we can't transfer more than 50k

Bebigiby1:
Before the 2023 presidential election, I warned Nigerians about the consequences of allowing Tinubu and APC's evil government to continue, many in this forum didn't listen but continue to support the evil government. This new policy is not so different from policies under Emefiele that led to the current economic disastrous situation we are facing today. Until Nigerians decide to overlook tribe, religion and fight these evil leaders things may get worse.... As it stands it is not getting better....

This policy just like the naira swap policy will violate people's right to spend and earn. It will further destroy Nigeria's economy....

Sablexxxtoons:
The question is what is contactless payment.

Blitzking:
Someone should explain this write up

This is for contactless payments, not your regular transfer or card payment.

With contactless payment cards, all you need do is bring your card close to a compliant POS machine and payment would be automatically taken from your card without you having to insert the card in the machine or inputting your pin. Contactless payments don't exist in Nigeria YET; I'm guessing they're just about to introduce it. But I doubt it would work in Nigeria though, especially given the sheer number of fraudsters we have.

CSTRR:
You supported these people during the buhari era.

The waste did not start today.

Buhari did it.

And unlike you, these guys simply transferred their sycophancy to the next president.

And most of these sycophants are invalids from Yorubaland anyway, so it was as easy as getting a dog to eat shitt.

Reason I supported Buhari was to cut off things like this and fight corruption... He failed shamefully!

In the recent election, it was easy to tell where my support would lie, cos I still wanted the same thing; someone to cut wastage and to suffocate corruption, and OBI was the perfect fit for that. But its funny how several comrades who also supported Buhari on the claim of anti-corruption and cutting wastage all turned around to support Tinubu; for them, it was about greed and tribalism all along.

The sheer number of people on this thread excusing this lifestyle of waste explains why Nigeria has always been a shithole.

Obviously these sort of mentalities can never buy into the OBI ideology of cutting waste.

If Atiku was a reasonable candidate, then the logic being shared on this page would have been sensible.

For everyone saying "OBI's decision to contest lost ATIKU the presidency", what exactly would OBI or the Obidients who simply want good governance have gained from an ATIKU presidency?... a useless vice presidency which we all know is as useless as a councillorship position?...

The other day some unfortunate fellow claimed "OBI at least would have gotten contracts" had Atiku won and I was beyond disgusted; apparently these cretins think OBI and the Obidients were in the contest for contracts and money.

At the end, the folks spreading this silly narrative that OBI made a mistake contesting are either hungry disgruntled PDP/Atiku minions, or just foolish Tinubu supporters who want to mock Obidients (cos I dont see how it concerns the BATists that Atiku lost the election). In both cases, these group of people appear to be too dumb to realise the essence of the Obidient movement which was just a call for good and responsible governance.
