Politics › Re: Uche Secondus: Wike Brought Misery, Grief, Anguish To Rivers by oshiokpu(m): 9:48am On May 12, 2024
robosky02:
Must every one be sacrifice for your ambition?

Why can you also sacrifice for peace to reign

It must not always be by your terms
Let me put this into perspective for you. Take your family for example, would you rather have a President from your family or the national chairman of the party? Is anything or anyone bigger than the President?
Politics › Re: Uche Secondus: Wike Brought Misery, Grief, Anguish To Rivers by oshiokpu(m): 9:04am On May 12, 2024
I understand why Secondus is angry with Wike, he helped Wike become the Party’s candidate and subsequently Governor when he was Rivers state PDP chairman but Wike rewarded him by fighting to make him the PDP national chairman. He has to understand that the decision to remove him from national chairman was so that they can fight legitimately for the Presidency to come to the South since we cannot have the party chairman and presidential candidate from the same region. Between presidency and party chairman which one is bigger? Nigerian politicians should learn to sacrifice small gains for the greater good, this is what makes Tinubu bigger than most of them. He started make sacrifices since 1999 without requesting for anything because he only wanted one thing which was the Presidency. He even sacrificed Vice presidency at some point. He was very correct when he said it was his Turn and most of the people had no choice because he has not asked them for anything since he helped them!

Theoarhics:
Why couldn't Obansanjo remove Tinubu? Na Governor wey no know himself Federal govt dey remove.
They are not the same case.
Tinubu was 100% in charge. He had 100% control of his assembly and LGA chair. Fubara is not in charge, he only has 3 out of 30 Assembly members and 0 LGA chair supporting him. The people he has in his camp were the same paperweight politicians that supported Atiku against Wike in Rivers and lost.
Politics › Re: Governor Fubara Wants To Unlawfully Dip His Hands Into LG Funds - ALGON by oshiokpu(m): 10:15am On May 09, 2024
The people advising Fubara do not like him at all.
How do you start a fight when you are not in control.
You don’t have the assembly. You only have 3 out of 30. You don’t have the Local government chairmen. All 30 LGA chairmen are not with you. You also donot have majority of the commissioners. Common men, the country is govern by laws and this is a democracy. Unless he want to be lawless, this is not a fight he can win!

He wasn’t rattled.
He was just trying to be funny. I even think he liked the lady. Most men are like that. They turn into comedians when they are confronted with beautiful ladies they like. I don’t blame him though, the Lady is beautiful!
Business › Re: Naira Rebounds, Gains N28.15 Against Dollar by oshiokpu(m): 11:25am On May 01, 2024
This falling and Rising of Dollar is not good for business at all. If it is going to be 2k for 1 dollar , let’s leave it like that so businesses can plan and grow in the mid and long term. Thriving SMEs equals a thriving economy and Nothing kills businesses more than uncertainty !
Politics › Re: Wike: Pray For Tinubu So That All The Promises He Made Will Be Kept by oshiokpu(m): 10:11am On Apr 29, 2024
Everyone needs prayers, the President and the Country inclusive!
The more responsibility you have the more prayers you need. I wish the President God’s grace and speed!

“Every government has a duty to do certain things, not only in the petroleum sector but in several other sectors, to be able to cushion the effect and burden on Nigerians.”

Okay Oga, We believe you but you have to tell us the name of the certain things that the government is doing to reduce the price if it is not subsidy!

Air peace and other local carriers are conspiring to do the same thing they accused the foreign carriers Of doing. Interstate Airfares is too much!

This is laughable, Only market forces( demand and supply) can determine how people buy and sell
I supported Tinubu because I think he had more relevant experience but we need to call a spade a spade.
If he cannot perform let him step down please.
Politics › Re: IMF Confirms Return Of Petrol Subsidy Under Tinubu - Daily Trust by oshiokpu(m): 11:06am On Feb 14, 2024
It’s a no brainer. With dollar exchanging at about 1500 Naira the only way fuel can sell for 630 Naira is if someone else is paying the difference I.e subsidy. Because the pump price of fuel is directly proportional to exchange rate.

Politics › Re: Marketers Will Pay Naira For Dangote Fuel, Says IPMAN by oshiokpu(m): 9:41pm On Jan 23, 2024
I think Nigerians are sitting on a long thing here. Dangote Group is running a business not a charity. Put on a scale of preference, The company’s foremost obligation is to her creditors and to maximize value for her share holders. So If you sell crude to the company in dollars, it will be unfair to ask her not to sell products to off-takers in dollars because you will still be exposing the business to the same exchange rate risk faced by all importers. It is no different from him importing the Crude. I’m sure the company has a lot of dollar denominated loans so what happens to the business if( God forbid) the Naira is devalued further?
My proposed solution:
If the Nigerian government wants the company to sell products in Naira then they should give them the Crude in Naira. Otherwise they will still be sourcing for dollars to buy Crude after selling in Naira!
Politics › Re: We Will Have Diesel, Aviation Fuel In The Market This Month - Dangote Refinery by oshiokpu(m): 2:54pm On Jan 13, 2024
kingralph:
Wait o. The plant refines 650,000 barrels per day and it just recieved 6 millions barrels from NNPC. This is a 10 day stock after which the 6 million barrels would have been exhausted. There is no mention of continuous supply of crude for continuous refining beyond the 6 million delivered. Will crude oil refining then stop after 10 days like the Port Harcour Refinery debacle?
A very important question

Anambra is still the mist economically viable state in the south east but it's possible for the budget of another state in the region to be higher than its own
This doesn’t make sense to me.
Please explain how this can be.

I used to think Anambra is the most economically viable state in the East
Politics › Re: Rivers Crisis: Wike Has Failed As Second Most Prominent Politician - Laolu Akand by oshiokpu(m): 12:06pm On Dec 15, 2023
searchlight:
What you failed to understand is that the position that gave Wike the power used to deal with Atiku is the position that Fubara is occupying. The good thing in this fight in favor of Fubara is that the fight started so early. Before 2027, Wike's structure must have been erased.

Go and verify this, every governor of Rivers State has been very powerful since 1999. Check from Odilli to Amaechi, to Wike, and then to Fubara.

You are mostly correct, But what you’re missing is that None of these other guys you mentioned successfully installed a successor.

Fubara will win though Wike will still be relevant until the expiration of Tinubu's tenure.
