Why not advise the thieves to go after the Donald Duke and co? Let them face those who are with the people's wealth, and not stealing from those who are equally suffering like them. You don't know the pains these idiots inflict on others.
I remember my days at Uniport. These criminals will come to our area with at least 7 wheelbarrows in the night to rob. You dare not challenge them. They will pack from phones to tv to home theatre and food stuff, e.t.c, until those wheelbarrows were filled up. The came like every two weeks. We suffer for their hand. At one time they even raped my female friend. The shame and trauma made the girl to drop out.
Until one day, boys were able to catch one when they came to rob one lodge that had majority women. Boys dealt with him very well.

Did it stop the raids or was there reprisal attack

What's stopping the FG from repairing or building refineries?

Dangote is a businessman. And his major priority is to make money and more money. He is not a Santa Claus.

The same government that gave him monopoly in the sectors he has investments in?

Any one ever noticed the only period fuel is 💯 guaranteed no matter what other crisis is rocking the nation is during sallah festivities?

This dangote man..why is it any thing he touches gets inflated...

CJStarz:
Grammar.
What's the difference between the two?

Learn to recognise sarcasm

If it's not suicide then was it self pre-meditated murder?

When they say "the internet never forgets"...any waize if it happened to Peter long ago..who is Uba sani that it won't happen to?

BigkokoRep:
Is there something they see coming which innocent Nigerians don't get yet?

there definitely is...they have endured despotic miltary rules and nation wide sanctions under military government..but stood firm.
for them to be closing shop under a "progressive civilian democracy"....my brother ...run ooooo

erniok:
Really? I thought they said blockchain is impossible to track.

Modified: just found out it can be tracked. This is good as it will greatly limit crime.

Not all coins/ token ..They should recieve payment in monero

May be this will enlighten you more..

Lol. Thank you for buttressing my point about gala losing market share.

As far as there is a competition, your are losing their money.

As for how big they are in other states?! For real?! Lol

I’ve not been to the north, so I can’t say about that.

But where you see Bigi drinks, you’ll see rite beef roll. I’ve been eating since my university days and I left the uni almost ten years ago.

And superbite; anywhere Chivita gets to, you’ll see superbite there.

So, yeah... gala did lose market share to these guys.

If you don’t agree, it doesn’t change that fact.

For the life of me? does the presence of other brands in the market mean your losing market share ? of course this brands exist. But which one is growing faster year in year ..so again I ask you how does a growing brand lose market share ? hence where is the growth?don't confuse players existing in Thier niche for lose of market share in a market that's very very big, with still much room to innovate.

faceland:
That is totally foooqin bullshit. You must have something worst 50 million to get 40 million loan and when it fails (multiple by 3 sites, I don't see a profit 120m), you lose your property.

Bottom line, they had stupid prerequisites. We are not in USA, we are in Nigeria, be realistic. If it was sustainable, they would still be in business, after all no one is using their brand today, they can start all over again with the magical loan from bank.

Banks or lawyers are not your friends. If ruining you "legally" would profit them, hey would take the opportunity to do it according to the books.

Did you see the part I said they paid off Thier loans in record time?
and we talking bout early 2000s so don't compare it to the business climate now. I talk cos I worked with this people personally. Just because your mind can't fathom how it doesn't mean others won't make it happen

Winnin009:
Well, Rite and Chi’s Superbite and Beefie are strong competitors. Now I see a new one called kingsway too these days.

I believe you get the picture

judus to your observant nature ..how big is rite, chi, supervise outside ..in Benin in Owerri in port harcourth in Abuja.
then let me leave you with this shocker ...the Kingsway you see was launched from the same stable of UAC ..barley a year ago and out sells all other of those brands you mentioned put together...and it isn't even doing half the revenue of it's senior brother GALA. hope this puts things in perspective.

faceland:
Bank loan for fast food in Northern Nigeria... And even 3 joints. 😅

That is financial suicide (or forfeiting your collateral).

Yeah bank loan...like I said ..a little research won't hurt your brains

Winnin009:
Gala has strong competition dragging market share.

Who is competing with their supreme ice cream? The ones in sachets and plastics?

They’ve grown into a powerful brand.

Go figure... what the market share of gala is relative to the competitors..before you use the word strong

I laugh at those saying UAC (yes who owns brands like SUPREME ice cream, SWAN SPRING WATER, and GALA & KINGSWAY ) is in ICU or going under.This is one indigenous conglomerate that while other foreign giants are running away they displayed the true Nija spirit and dug thier heels and are thriving in this never before seen inflationary economy...if it's easy to Sell over 5 billion in just the last month alone.its a public quoted company so it's financials are out there fir verification. Most of you Naira landers should learn to speak with facts and figures not just speak with our verification or sound like an authority in matters you have little to zero knowledge about cos it's a faceless forum .

Winnin009:
Coca-Cola is still there almost 100 years later.

What’s your opinion on them and other similar companies?

in my business class many years back when we were studying product life cycle....I asked the lecturer a question he couldn't answer ...what part of this cycle would you place coca cola?...and Gala is fastly becoming one of such brands thanks to the visionary MD Mr Oluyemi

faceland:
I think it was the opposite. I don't remember anyone thinking Mr. Biggs was trash.

It was competitors that push them out (as they set unrealistic standards and were too sure if themselves).

My father applied, they told him he needed 4 million of in those days money (that would be 40 million of today's naira based on dollars exchange). Then they made some crazy demands like; it must be on a major road (they want it on the road, your property or rented building). People with that type of money are not usually patient enough to nurse a new business-location (they want profit today, those capable of running the show, can't afford the prerequisites).

They felt no one could beat them and overnight many Asians came with their own recipes. Nothing special. Just fry suger and rob it on the body of your finished junk-food, the end.

Anyway, 99% of my comic books back then ware sponsored by them and Guinness Mult.

It wasn't the opposite, regulated activities by franchises over time tarnished the brand image and experience and led to it's slow death..that your dad couldn't afford an outlet then didn't mean there weren't people that had at least 3 different branches in different northern states and ran them on bank loans which they successfully paid back in record time from Kaduna owners to Jos to PH , even had an Alhaji that had over 10 branches, so yes it was stringent criteria to apply, but it paid off for the diligent.
One or two franchisee that kept to the quality edicts are still running Thier operations.
While they copied a successful Mac Donald's concept Nigeria happened to them in leasing existing outlets to cronies and dis honesty in sales report and remittance.

This is the trademark of all dictators and despots in history ...they use propaganda, create a larger than life persona, it's all about them instead of the 200million people they are supposed to be leading...the only thing missing is the high handedness of the military ..or other words the DSS.
We should strap our sit belts ..this ride is far from over

Are there still any openings in chess that hasn't been analysed to the T...with draw endings the resultant factors except o e opponent is less uninitiated, what's the beast of baku up to these days?

Representing 104 ....

This may not be popular opinion but majority of those girls in that video don't look like they want to be rescued, or would not get back to this life style once given the opportunity of freedom as long as they can handle Thier own money

bestman09:
Congratulations to her.

What is the difference between Chess and draught/checkers game?

what's the difference between the sun and stars?

since mental instability has been brought up ...it's now explainable how she could leave her home with out her phone ...but how and in what state she was found dead ? ..that's an entire kettle of fish.

Pennywise2:
Good day , seems they are just waking up.

Trust me , there is nothing anyone will say about the 30 billion giving to the governors for palliative which akpabio mentioned. I know it's true but then Nigerians no believe. So we let it slide.

My brother your head get oil...this is the first time that no governor is speaking against the presidency , weather pro or opposition, is it because we are at our best as a nation?
secondly if you notice after that Akpabio slip and Thier consequent denial ..several ones started doing save face palliative schemes.The mantra of this government...if your fortunate to be in the ruling class they will combine and feed far on the citizens till may be there is no nation left.

I believe syphilis ..if left un treated back then induces madness

Sccarrr:
this your inferiority pass me o...nawa🥲

It's not a talk of inferiority, he stated a case with examples ..you ma refute him by stating just one black dominated nation that you can describe as a developed nation

Yankee101:
The military should grow balls and remove Tinubu
Arrest everyone from buhari till date
Recover our money and use it to build nigeria

As radical as this may sound ..I support you with a passage from the bible ...what would a man not give to Dave his life ? the fastest way to save this country ...round up every one post yardua that ever had any thing to do with aso rock and let them bail thier life ..see how our economy will change in one week

LaSenior:
If Nigeria is truly United impeachment process should have started on Tinubu this man is clueless

God bless you there ..I don't know why we think once voted can't be impeached...
