festacman: Love him or hate him, David Hundeyin is a proper coconut head. Strong as it comes.
Every progressive society needs more of David Hundeyin and VDM than it needs of conformists who would easily kowtow before oppressors or clowns who dance for daily meals at oppressor's palace.
Most of what he writes are fables. No progressive society wants someone like David Hundeyin
Ask yourself y is imported fuel cheaper and pls forget that substandard bull shiiiit we have been importing fuel for ages
Before Dangote started operation, government was subsidizing petrol and there was no subsidy on diesel, kerosene and jet fuel. Do you still remember the insane price fuel importers were selling diesel per litre before Dangote start operation? It was Dangote that crashed the price of Diesel in Nigeria when he started operation.
So if dangote sells for 5k per liter we should still buy abi...ask yourself y is imported fuel cheaper and pls forget that substandard bull shiiiit we have been importing fuel for ages
Dangote can't sell for this amount. If a price of litre of petrol is 5k per litre, that means the naira to a dollar will be about 6500/$. If naira can strengthen against the dollar, then price of Dangote fuel will drop.
Why does Davido and his family chose to live in Nigeria ? Do you prefer more comfort than them ? Have you ever lived outside Nigeria ? Or you have TV and Youtube ?
Davido and his father have benefited a lot from Nigeria. You cannot make your wealth in USA and criticize the U.S. You cannot make your wealth in Russia and Criticize the Kremlin. Davido and his family are beneficiaries of the Nigerian capitalism. We might not be America or UK. But you have to add respect to the name Nigeria anywhere you talk, don't disparage Nigeria and Nigerians.
hassinho707: Seun, thanks so much for naira to dollar updates...
Poor countries like Pakistan and India currencies to dollar are all very low, why is Nigeria own like this? Some people are saying we are not exporting anything, please what are Indians and Pakistanis and other countries whose currencies to dollars are okay producing?
Look at the way this guy they underrate the indians
Bobloco: The same people who cried foul and screamed injustice when Obasanjo withheld local government funds accrued to Lagos State during Tinubu's tenure as governor have suddenly become the ones encouraging Tinubu, now president, to withhold FAAC allocations accrued to Rivers State because a notorious drunkard, who is hell-bent on making Rivers State ungovernable, is working for Tinubu.
The wickedness and demonic mindset exhibited by these people have never been seen in history.
They don't care if the people of Rivers State suffer.
The court didn't tell Obasanjo to hold on to Lagos state local government funds.
Quintessence44: While LAZY, NEGATIVE-MINDED Nigerian youths sit at home abusing Tinubu, and moaning about the price of tomato and garri, Pro-Nigerian Cameroonian YouTuber Ajim Macy, entered Lagos yesterday and began showcasing the Lagos rail system to the world on his YouTube channel, earning THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS from a video that will surely go viral.
He even made a rap song praising and hyping Nigeria! You will hear it in the video.
This is why we tell you Nigerian youths. Your problem is not Tinubu.
Your problem is your negative mindset.
With a positive mindset you can make BIG MONEY in this great country called Nigeria. Even if it is just with a YouTube channel, taking your phone around and showing the world your BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY which you take for granted and call a ''shithole''.
Oya see the ''shithole'' pouring DOLLARS into a Cameroonian kid's pocket. From Lagos he is heading to Abuja to produce more content, and earn thousands more dollars, from right under your noses.
owobokiri: The whole country sympathized with Tinubu when Obasanjo held allocations to Lagos State for moths..
To think that the same template of holding back a states allocations in order to bring it to it's knees, is being used by Tinubus government today, is simply unbelievable
The court didn't order Obasanjo to hold Lagos LG money. The court ordered the FG to stop paying Rivers state
Merchandiservic: This Supreme Court ruling on the National Lottery Act is a classic case of confusion in our legal system. If the National Assembly can enforce the EFCC Act across states, why can't they do the same for lotteries? This inconsistency raises serious questions about our legislative framework. As we navigate this legal maze, I’m also offering shared apartments in Lekki for those looking to split rent or seeking short lets. If you have an extra room to rent out in Lekki or Lagos Island, hit me up!
Lottery and game of chance in general is the exclusive business of the state.
SamGift0817: We (National Assembly) should stop to rush to approve certain borrowings, A lawmaker, Senator Ali Ndume, after President Bola Tinubu wrote to the National Assembly to seek the approval of a fresh $2.2bn as a new external borrowing plan.
Oga, this news is stale. Stop bringing Tinubu into your state crisis. Let Fubara and Wike continue with their immature fight, nothing concern us.
Thank you for putting the hypocrite and lier called obataokenwa where he belong. I wander why he's trying to involve Tinubu in an issue he's not involve in.
press9jatv: Another war coming in Lagos State politics. Obasa is out of Lagos state politics. Tinubu will prefer Seyi Tinubu than Obasa that’s over ambitious to become the Lagos state governor by every means
AmazingGenius: Over 10,000 student acceptance letters identified as potentially fraudulent in Canada.
Canada’s Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has identified over 10,000 student acceptance letters as possibly fraudulent, raising concerns over the integrity of international student admissions.
The move follows the introduction of stricter verification procedures aimed at addressing issues with fake letters discovered in previous years.
According to The Economic Times, the director-general of the International Students Branch at IRCC, informed a parliamentary committee that the government had introduced stricter verification processes in response to the growing issue.
The new checks were carried out over the past year as part of the review of 500,000 student applications. While most of the letters were confirmed to be genuine, a significant number were flagged as suspicious.
Stricter verification of student admissions
The new checks revealed that 93% of the student acceptance letters were verified as legitimate. However, 2% of the documents were found to be fraudulent, while 1% were linked to canceled admissions. In several instances, universities and colleges had failed to properly confirm the authenticity of the letters before admitting students.
Bronwyn May explained that the enhanced verification measures were introduced after a series of cases in 2023, where international students were at risk of deportation due to receiving fraudulent acceptance letters from an unlicensed consultant in India.
These incidents prompted the government to take action by requiring educational institutions to confirm acceptance letters through an online portal, a process that is now mandatory for all applicants, whether inside or outside Canada.
Concerns over Student exploitation
Reports inform that the issue of fraudulent student documents has raised additional concerns regarding the treatment of international students. Jenny Kwan, an immigration critic for Canada’s New Democratic Party, described the findings as “extremely alarming” and called for the government to address both the fraudulent practices and potential involvement of educational institutions.
“Canada has a responsibility to ensure that international students who have been defrauded are protected,” Kwan said in an interview with The Globe and Mail, according to the Times.
Kwan stressed that Canada’s reputation as a destination for international students could be at risk if such fraudulent practices were not swiftly dealt with. She urged the government to not only focus on fraud prevention but also provide support for students who had been misled.
A growing focus on fraud prevention
According to reports, The IRCC’s move to tighten the verification process marks a growing concern over the integrity of international student admissions in Canada, as international students represent a significant part of the Canadian economy, with thousands of students coming to study each year.
The discovery of fraudulent documents highlights the need for stronger safeguards to prevent exploitation and ensure the credibility of the admissions process.
The IRCC’s efforts reflect a broader commitment to maintaining the integrity of Canada’s immigration system and ensuring that students are not subjected to fraudulent practices. The new checks are expected to provide additional protection for students and institutions alike.
International students’ impact on Canada’s economy
International students contribute significantly to Canada’s economy, not only through tuition fees but also in terms of job creation and cultural exchange. As the number of international students continues to rise, ensuring the authenticity of their documents and the legitimacy of their admissions is crucial to maintaining a trustworthy system.
The government’s strengthened verification process aims to reduce the risk of fraud while supporting the growth of Canada’s international student population.
With the new measures in place, the IRCC hopes to prevent further incidents of fraud and protect the interests of both international students and Canadian educational institutions.
The government’s response aims to uphold the reputation of Canada as a leading destination for higher education while safeguarding the rights of students who choose to study in the country.
