PoliticsRe: Imo Governor, Hope Uzodinma Accussed Of Falsifying His Certificate by optimusprime2(m): 12:23pm On Oct 31, 2023
Please it's ok with all this dragging.

In Nigeria it's perfectly legal to use fake certificates for elections, it was approved by the judiciary.

Leave the man alone, people should jakpa if they want a sane system.

Afterall the money is for sharing.

Because Las Las the Elections will still endup in court due to a broken process.
SportsRe: At Your Age'' Do You Understand How Cricket And Rugby Works... by optimusprime2(m): 6:43pm On Oct 30, 2023
Rugby Yes!
Because of it's similarity to American football.

Cricket on the other hand...
Despite my loads of Indian and Pakistani friends who literally live and breathe Cricket, for some odd reason I just can't get the concept of Cricket, even though I have been told it's baseball in a different way.

Nigerians will simply take the pain and endure, even if fuel is 2500NGN per litre by next month.

Nigerians are used to suffering, and are a "Prayerful" lot, so increased fuel price is no big deal.

TravelRe: At 38, What Are My Chances If Relocate Abroad? by optimusprime2(m):
PremiumTech:
I feel it is too late if I travel to the UK or the Netherlands in search of greener pastures.

At the moment, I earn between N250,000 and, sometimes, N300,000 per month.

Married with 3 kids (6, 4, and 1 year). All boys.

My skills are GIS, web design using Joomla!, WordPress, and Drupal. I am also intermediate in HTML5, CSS, SEO, PHP, and MySQL Workbench. I am also an expert in content writing.

Armed with a Bachelor's Degree in Environmental Management and a Diploma in Basic Cyber Security, what are my chances of survival?

How sellable are my skills over there?

Will I survive?

I don't want to go do the caregiver job thing.
Brother...
Why are you stuck on UK & Netherlands??
Like seriously why the UK & Netherlands?? ?? ??

If you didn't have the skillset you listed, I would have probably given a not so enthusiastic reply.

Please you can japa at your age very easily and very conveniently, due to your tech-skillset which is in demand and can be continously improved anywhere in the world... I repeat Anywhere in the world.

However... please, please and please... the Japa formula is absolutely not: Japa=UK/Netherlands. X

To me your "UK/Netherlands mind stamp" as the japa yardstick is the major hindrance, not even your age.

Please look at; Finland, Norway, Canada, New Zealand, Portugal... oga the list is long.

The only challenge you may have would be language adaptation to some japa options, but asides that you are good.

Boss abeg siddon-well look this thing, you go find plenty options.

Stop discouraging yourself to read before even opening a book.
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Is This A Good Idea For Interview Abroad. by optimusprime2(m): 12:49pm On Oct 27, 2023
Yes and no

Yes in the sense that; you need to bring out the creativity and ingenious side of how omo onile relates to the feild. (Trust me, I realised that in Nigeria very creative techniques are used to solve problems however they may be very unrefined and informal, but what matters is that ability to think outside the box).

Highlight your mastery of out the box methodologies and creativity of the omo onile strategy as regards to construction/project management.

No in the sense that you don't say what omo onile rightly is "Hooliganism"

PoliticsRe: How Come Naira Is Falling And Yet Other Countries Currency Are Not? by optimusprime2(m):
@KnowAll It's simple...

Most (Francophone) countries in West Africa including central Africa use the CFA which is tied to the Euro, courtesy of "La France" (That Economic tie to France is a different issue to be discussed another day). However due to that lock of the CFA to the Euro, the CFA is a very stable currency to the USD, except the USD slumps.

Now as for Ghana's Cedi, it also fluctuates against the USD, however when the Cedi is directly compared to the Naira, the Economics of Ghana comes to play... unlike Nigeria that bases a large percentage of it's export on Crude oil and other raw petroleum resources, Ghana's export is more diversified(A larger chunk of Ghana's exports are Agricultural based), so Ghana's Economy is not as sensitive to Global petroleum price fluctuations as Nigeria is.

Secondly Nigeria imports waaaay more fuel than Ghana or other African countries do, due to;
1.Nigeria's dead petroleum refineries
2.Massive population (200M+ is not a joke)
and
3.industrial sectors(that rely heavily on diesel/petrol for power production)...

So that higher petrol import demand creates a higher cost in which currency? ... Yes you guessed right, USD!

And of course if you require that much USD (which is not your currency) to pay for a daily consumable, what happens to your currency?... yes! it would nose dive ... because there will always be a general demand for USD everyday simple.

To make matters worse, the USD payments for the petro-consumables in Nigeria are shrouded in a complex Nexus of corruption (fuel Subsidy, NDDC, Bunkering etc) so Nigeria is actually paying waaaaay much more than officially stated, because of that, there is always a USD deficit or shortage, which means, all the USD loans and foreign aid Nigeria gets, are used to service that petro- consumption shortage, which keeps going on and on and on... (easily put, since the USD account for Naija no balance, because of tiff-tiff, then normal normal, Naija go always owe USD debt) therefore the whole Economy is literally in a mess, because the Foreign reserve no balance cheesy (Ask Buhari).

Notable mentions
In Ghana, and other African countries that have stable currencies, it is relatively easy to do business when compared to Nigeria, due to good security, transparency in administrative procedures, relatively stable electricity, etc which welcomes foreign investors. How do foreign investors boost a nations currency?

So in layman's terms, Foreign investors do either of the two to a nations economy;

1. inject a fresh supply of foreign currency into the Economy from within, which rejuvenates internal supply, dropping the value of Foreign currency...
Or
2. Create a higher demand for local currency, which increases the value of a local currency.

Now with that being said; the truth is; Nigeria is not investor friendly at aaaallll. Foreign investors no dey like come 9ja.

In these hostile situations how will foreign investors feel confident in coming to sink USD/Multi billion Naira investments into the Nigerian Economy (to boost USD circulation or Naira demand) when they are constantly warned about corruption, insecurity, power shortage, kidnapping and banditry?

I tried to use layman definitions to explain why the Naira is crashing. So, nobody is plotting anything against B.A.T... instead na B.A.T dey scatter economy dey go.

And if B.A.T's administration continues in this same APC approach of Buhari, the Economy will be in absolute tatters by 2024.
BusinessRe: Why Are Nigerians Still Buying Dollars by optimusprime2(m):
theophorus:
If you're praying that the USD should keep increasing in value against the NGN, then I urge that you keep buying more USD.

But if you are wise, you will know that something has peaked and its on it downfall gradually and it will not peak again for the next 3yrs.
In layman terms, as long as the economy is based on consuming, the Dollar, Euro, Pounds and all other foreign currencies will keep strangling the Naira. Its simple Economics.

Currently Nigeria is grabbing a loan in USD that is potentially bigger than the foreign reserves, to basically service more consumption... in the absence of significant revenues from export or foreign investment, what do you expect... Economic miracles?


(The USD demand is simply higher than USD supply).

Danboroba or Danbaruwã, Tinubu's smarter than Atiku and Obi. That's why it's paining Obi and Atiku.
All these dragging of Tinubu is pure painment of electoral losses from the opposition.
Atiku has been known to be Siddiq abi na CDQ while Obi has Pandora files.
However, we can't shun anomalies. So Tinubu, Atiku, Obi must come out very clean. Also, Nigerians deserve better leaders.
Have you asked yourself why nobody talks about Pandora files anymore?

If B.A.T's hands are clean, then these allegations of drug trafficking, forgery, identity theft, tax evasion, money laundering, perjury etc would have died down by now but instead.... it keeps getting louder.

Oga I understand you are a faithful, but by now, you should be smart enough to defend B.A.T from a distance...

Let's tackle his tweet logically, how many days will it take to fight insecurity and get farmers back to farm ? 1 week , 2 weeks , 1 month, 1 year ? So while waiting to secure farmers what will happen to inflation? Its easy to talk and tweet , get there first then the story will change .
I can guarantee you for sure;

P.O wouldn't have climbed podium on swearing in day and just shout "Fuel Subsidy is gone!" like one crass moomoo.

I can also guarantee you that P.O infact even my grandmother would not immediately float the Naira taking out arbitrary control and completely leaving it to market forces in the midst of 0 production...

Which right thinking person who studied basic Economics would float his national currency in a non exporting situation??
There is no way P.O would have come in and just floated the currency ... absolutely no way! He understands business well enough to make that clueless decision.

It's only B.A.T that can reason that a solution to hardship due to Economic woes (that he created) is by sharing money to everybody cheesy ... like say na election primaries.

He literally destroyed the economy before his cabinet came in...

You can't convince me in a billion years that B.A.T is not clueless with these decisions he made so far.

This shows that Tinubu's master strategy is actually working

I really know tinubu is the missing piece we have always needed in this country.

Imagine with this development now, prices of several things will come crashing and the common man on the streets of SW, NW, NE and parts of NC will really be proud of voting the master economist himself

On Jagaban mandate we will continue to stand
You are very right!!!
The "master strategist" is set to make 1USD to equal 2500NGN in the next three months, that way "we" who work with him, will become millionaires quicker since he pays us in USD (Chicago connections) cheesy. Therefore creating more millionaires in Nigeria.

Then by March 2024 "The master strategist" will wave his strategic mind wand and return the rate to 1usd =10NGN ... *in Sabinus voice* "Smart Move!"

At this rate "the master strategist" would now ginger 50,000 Youths into the army, with that large Army we will now challenge all the heeeeeboes and snatch all their Agbado, which will then be exported in high volumes globally...

Because I know that "no be statistics I go chop", By then I would have created and color printed a PHD certificate from any university I like... maybe from Havard.

Then I run for Governor of the FCT being the 37th state... *in Sabinus voice* "Nice one"

See the strategy na...

About 98% of all globally recognised terrorist groups/rings are directly linked to one religion.

https://www.dni.gov/nctc/groups.html

Something is fundamentally wrong...

How did this even happen?

My concern is even the continuous funding of these terrorist groups...

1. Who funds them?

2. How are global security measures overridden in the funding of such entities?

3. Why do well known clerics often dissociate themselves from these terrorist attacks, despite the fact almost everyone on earth knows the connection between a particular religion and terrorism... Who indoctrinates them??

4. Who takes responsibility/accountability for these extremist acts of terrorism done in the name of religion, if religious clerics can't?
