What a ridiculous statement

Why ridiculous? Work out the math. Of what importance is passport cost to a low wage person who cannot afford to travel anywhere.

OkanlawonB:
A 10 year Nigerian Passport at the rate of 130k , is just too exorbitant for a country where the minimum wage is just 70k per month.

In contrast an EU passport cost averagely 70 euros (119k naira) in most EU countries and the net minimum wage is about 1,500 euros per month.

Nigeria seem quite expensive to live in.

What is minimum wage person doing with passport? He need am to go heaven... or wetin he dey find up and down?

How does it work? Do people, nowadays, still use visit visa to go to Yankee? Now that they no longer give us visa lottery.

Tinubu is failure personified and this is why Kemi Badenoch is avoiding him.

I have nothing in common with the people from the north of the country, the Boko Haram where Islamism is,” she added.

This is very disrespectful, some things are better left unsaid


This will be used against her someday, I think she's fooling herself by saying she's more of a Yoruba than being a Nigerian, she will forever be seen as a UK citizen of Nigerian descent

Are you serious? Most of you guys just enjoy playing ostrich. I am first Yoruba before I am Nigerian. I am always quick to point out to anyone that I am Yoruba . Nigeria only happened to me by accident. Thank you.

Ajangila is the name of a masquerade 😂😂

Old men just dey rule oooo....,.. no hope for the younger generation o

You mean younger generation like those on Nairaland? Bros you funny die.

dumahi:
Not "you can". I already know it can happen. My question is: Is it right? I actually need to know.

It is standard procedure anywhere in the world. The reason has already been explained to you. It is to prevent violence.

President-elect Donald Trump said he still plans to end birthright citizenship in the United States on day one — but was unable to provide insight into how he would go around the 14th Amendment.

“We’re going to have to get it changed. We’ll maybe have to go back to the people,” Trump said in an interview with NBC’s Kristen Welker on that aired Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” “But we have to end it.”

Trump also falsely noted that only the United States has birthright citizenship, despite other countries like Brazil and Canada also offering birthright citizenship.

Welker asked how Trump plans to end birthright citizenship and whether he would do it through executive action. Trump responded: “If we can, through executive action.”

The person who wants to do things that nobody has never done before, his eyes will see the things nobody has ever seen before. This man's government will soon be paralyzed by law suits.

Abeg wetin banks dey sell. No abuse me o just explain to me.

UHC my current albatross. Good for nothing.

We'll oppress the poor, even if they are righteous. We'll show no respect for widows or old people. 11We'll call ourselves right if we are strong enough to get what we want. No one ever got anywhere by being weak! 12Righteous people are nothing but a nuisance, so let's look for chances to get rid of them. They are against what we do; they accuse us of breaking the Law of Moses and violating the traditions of our ancestors. 13They claim to know God, and they call themselves the Lord's children. 14We can't stand the sight of people like that; what they are contradicts our whole way of thinking. 15They are not like us;


The Wisdom of Solomon Chapter 2 exposes how sodomites and occultists actually think about the righteous.

Wow!... just wow!
Na God go punish the person wey do you this kind thing.

Selective persecution. Dasuke who didn't steal half of this they publish his name and even all members of his family. They even paid foreign newspaper to blackmail them. This EFCC is a joke.

cococandy:
First of all that was a question. You didn’t reply before you started asking me about smugglers. I was genuinely asking what’s the cost of petrol to Nigerians compared to the surrounding countries who I’m inclined to believe have similar economies. Is it cheaper or not for Nigerians? I’m truly asking because I don’t know.

As for your question. If someone smuggles petrol, it might not necessarily be because they’re going to sell it more expensive elsewhere. It might be because they got it from illegal sources in Nigeria and can’t sell there. Maybe due to licensing issues or they don’t have the infrastructure to distribute it to end users. So they smuggle wholesale to people who will sell it elsewhere. Either way they make their profit because they are part of class who can get it for cheap or next to nothing. People who can smuggle petrol have connections. The end consumer doesn’t have that privilege.

Oh okay. Enjoy your day.

Mr Ero Ogi must be living in a different metro Atlanta from where I am this morning.
But as you people never even see airport before nah he can always lie to you and get away with it. I wonder what he is trying to prove other than tell you all he lives in Atlanta 🤷🏾‍♂️

cococandy:
That’s a good question for your leaders.

Na you suppose to use common sense. Why would anyone who is not mad snuggle petrol from Nigeria where it is “more expensive “ to Benin where it is “cheaper “?

cococandy:
How much is petrol in other countries neighboring Nigeria? It seems we pay the most out of other African countries.

If we pay the most, then why is petrol still being smuggled from Nigeria to other West African countries ? You people should use common sense nah.

Idiut ni man yi o. First I don’t know where in “metro Atlanta” he is buying his gas from. Must be a dangerous neighborhood. Secondly does he realize that we were subsidizing petrol for the entire West Africa region? What nation can afford that?
When monkeys like Kperogi take one commodity and links it to minimum wages just to try and prove a lame point you should also ask him how much an apartment costs to rent in “metro Atlanta “ and compare it to Nigeria. Ask him how much one plantain, one mango, one corn etc costs and compare to Nigeria.
In my Atlanta neighborhood by the way, gasoline sells at around $3.90 and a single bedroom apartment goes for around $1400 per month. Now go compare that to Nigeria using the same minimum range. So dumb an article.

Angelfrost:
But, in those other nations you earn well enough to survive at least.

Here, how do you explain cost of living being far higher than minimum wage?!!

That's a crime against humanity anywhere on Earth.

Continue with your fantasy . If you see poor, jobless, homeless people “abroad “ fear of God go catch una.

I want everyone to know that this fellow is a thief. He took money from me and absconded. The title of his bank account is Bassey Samuel Eno of FCMB . Send him money only if you are a fool.
I vow to deal with him in my own way though. Spiritually .

Thabothabo101:
You can expect nothing but the best writing from the Washington Post.

It reads like a sponsored article. The usual EFCC blackmail process on a case that is nearly 10 years old. Even if they had jailed them since then, they should have been due for release very soon. The owner of the house still lives in US. Why hasn't FBI arrested him since and seized his property. Alleged Alleged Alleged. Stupid corrupt journalist. Stupid and childish EFCC.

Dapo Abiodun the YORUBA governor of Ogun State was CONVICTED in USA

Bola Tinubu the YORUBA president of Nigeria was INDICTED in USA and his Alpha Beta company in Nigeria was also indicted for fraud

https://saharareporters.com/2022/06/08/corruption-allegations-against-tinubu-linger-70-year-old-ex-lagos-governor-becomes-ruling

Is Indicted the same as Convicted ?

helinues:
See, Trump is more independent minded tan any of the democrats candidates who will always go with party politics. Trump lead his own party, he tells them what he thinks is right not the other way round

Is that the making of a leader or basic attribute of a despot ??

gidgiddy:
How are you sure it has not happened in Nigeria? Nobody knows anything about the first 20 years of the life of your current President, nobody is even sure of his real name

For all we know, he could have been in jail at 18.

Tell me about it...

Nobody on Nairaland knows anything about the first 20 years of your life, nobody is even sure of your real name

For all we know, you could have been in jail at 18 ... or even now.

I lie??

Forumites:
why not deal with your drug baron president first? Buzuh

Which drug baron? Continue to dance to the music playing in your head and which only you can hear

LandMann:
An ex convict has ruled your country... A convicted fraudster is a governor and another is an oba in your banana republic... Your sitting president has been indicted for drug dealing in USA and he's currently a CIA asset and a full blown western puppet.

Remove the log in your eyes. You guys are just evil and terrible at gaslighting others while pretending to be saints. it sucks

What is this one saying? Do you understand English.
Tell me the name of the CONVICTED fraudster who is governor
Sitting president was indicted (so you say)... when was he CONVICTED.

Why una dey cry nah?

helinues:
Story.

Colluded/collusion did not work, na felon una wan use?

Election loser supporters should move on

What do you know??To you guys everything is either for or against. I am talking about influence on the society and you are reducing it to personal attack on Trump. What is my business with Trump?
