Did you sought for our advice when you were rejecting men up and down? Now that the chips are down you want us to beg the man or your sister?
Move on with your life, your sister had taken the burden of caring or your parents and siblings, so continue to hustle and wait for the richest man to come.

PoliticsRe: Boko Haram Are Killing More Muslims Than Christians - US Envoy by Okbaba: 2:06pm On Oct 18, 2025
Namaster:
EVERYBODY knows this is the truth!

It's people with MALICIOUS agenda who are trying to frame it as a Christian GENOCIDE.

And people who are looking for excuses to feel perpetually PERSECUTED quickly latched on to that FALSE narrative and ran with it.

Fact is Nigeria has a DEBILITATING security crisis.
Nigerian lives mean NOTHING.

They are KILLING and KIDNAPPING Nigerians every day and the government continues to twiddle their fingers while BEGGING the killers and kidnappers to negotiate.

If there is a GENOCIDE in Nigeria, it's a genocide of ALL Nigerians.
NOT Christians.
In a class that you have 1000 Muslims and 10 Christians; if 20 persons are killed and out of that 20, 10 are Christians; how many Christians are left then? Can't you see the target was to eliminate Christian but the had to kill Muslims as well to put up this current narrative as cover up?

Paramount01:
Wait, did our revenue increase? Did we owe in dollar or naira ,so how does devaluation affect debt,is not clear
Nigeria earns (sell oil) in Dollars and pay salaries and allocations in Naira.
Example:
When exchange rate was N150/$ and brent @ $75/barrel
1,000,000 barrels x $75 = $75,000,000=>75,000,000x150=N11.25 billion
Same no. of barrel (1000000) at the same price $75 but devalued exchange rate of 1500/$
1,000,000 barrels x $75 = $75,000,000=>75,000.000x1500=N112.5 billion
in the example above; at the exchange rate of 150/$ govt earns 11.25billion and pay 30000 as salary but at the exchange rate of 1500 govt earns 112.5billion (10 times more) while paying salary of 70000 (2 times more).
How does it affect you:
When exchange rate was 150/$ you will buy (import) a $100 phone at 15k but with devalued rate of 1500, the same $100 phone is now being bought (imported) at 150k (10 time more costly)
That is how govt is making you poorer. So when next you sing "on your mandate..." let your conscience judge you.
However, the situation would have been better if govt had put the excess fun to judicious use by investing in production, etc; order than this reckless looting we are witnessing.

BusinessRe: A Loan App Sent This Message to tarnish the image of a loan defaulter by Okbaba: 11:45am On Oct 24, 2024
santaclaws:
These loan apps should be avoided at all cost cos they've done more harm than good. Better to borrow money from family and friends than to use loan apps.

They are always tarnishing people's image once the person fails to pay back on the stipulated date. Even if the person is on the hospital bed, they don't care. Very callous set of people.

They should actually be banned cos those loans are just being used to exploit Nigerians. High interest rate, short repayment period... CBN isn't doing its job cos these people have violated a lot of ethical banking codes...
You should have gone CBN or other commercial banks to get the loan. Instead of encouraging borrowers to payback their loan, are here blaming loan app who are frustrated by bad debtors
Jman06:
Your modus operandi is fraudulent and that is why you resort to blackmails in recovering loans. Coupled with the exorbitant interests you charge which, in most cases, you don't disclose until people have fallen into the traps of taking your loans out of desperation. Genuine money lending institutions like banks don't work like that.

EducationRe: FG Committee Recommends ₦ 2 Millions Monthly Pay For Professors by Okbaba: 6:55am On Jul 15, 2022
tony0806:
2,000,000 monthly grin

As at 2019, Nigeria had about 11,877 professors (though this include both those on private and public higher institutions).

That means; monthly, the government will pay 2,000,000 x 11,877 = 23,754,000,000. That's over twenty three billion naira monthly.

As at today, Nigeria produces about 1.2m BPD of crude oil (Our main source of income, excluding mineral resources from the north which I don't know why they don't mention it. Only God knows where that money is going to). Using the official exchange rate of about 414 naira, that's a total income of 1,200,000 x 414 = 496,800,000.

THEN; 496,800,000 x 30 days = 14,904,000,000. This is approximately Fifteen billion naira FROM CRUDE OIL MONTHLY (Nigeria's income from crude oil).

Summarily, the nations income (from crude oil) AS AT TODAY CAN'T settle ASUU's demand. This draft proposal is just for academic staff salaries oooo. We've not mentioned other items.

SSANU, Non academic staff, etc have not been mentioned oooo.
Other government establishment have not been mentioned oooo.

Anyway, the government has enough money. Else, where are they getting money to pay NPOWER between 12 to 15 billion monthly? What of the one they said they share to the poorest people in Nigeria monthly, etc.


I'll come back to modify my comment later
You may correct your calculations.
Crude oil is not sold at 1$ per barrel as used in your calculations. This year oil has gone up as high as120$ and over per barrel. Currently it is ranging at around 100$.
However, I am not saying an unsustainable salary structure be recommended, rather something appreciate and sustainable

Tellwhat:
So many people wouldn't have bothered voting if the race was between just atiku and tinubu. Unless those that mostly want to receive something for their vote

I mean why on earth should I spend my quality time to stand on the qué just to vote for either of this men. It's between choosing the devil and the deep blue sea and it's hard to even tell which of them is which

Peter obi followers are organic and working class citizens that are fed up of the state of leadership. We're tired of I don't care leaders that can't even address the citizens or represent our best interest even when abroad

The good thing about Peter obi is that if he wins it will be fully obvious that the Nigerian people elected him there..and if he messes up (which I don't see happening) then the citizens will kick him out in the next election


For goodness sake we need to not only uplift ourselves but Africa and the entire black race. We're the number one black country in the world and it's a shame we're failing so much when we should be competing with USA, China etc or atleast close. Peter obi is not a magician but atleast he will usher in a new era..An era were we have thinking leaders. An era were power belongs to the people

It's time that Nigerian leaders realize power belongs the citizens. Any government that underperforms needs to be voted out

We're not puppets. We want better leaderships
God bless you

The lies and deceits planted in education so that people become stupid and lose focus on what they are supposed to be doing.

First what is my business with Bako and his mother's age? I don't have any business with them.

Of what use and relevance and profit is this? Even American embassy do not calculate this to know your age.

The simple thing is to ask, what is your age? And what is your mother's age. And birth certificates and school certificates and other things will take of all this none sense....Truth as the vehicle for delivering lies.
Today you are encouraging mental laziness; tomorrow you will blame Africa of being backward forgetting that it is this kind of mental exercise that prepares and sharpens young scientist minds for advances and discoveries
