Why dont they also go mad so they can predict outcomes.. SMH for the desperate

All snappers should ask themselves a sincere question which requires a sincere answer.

If the victim was a relative will you be taking pictures?Lets search our conscience.

She doesn't look normal. Looks like she's been used.

Money can make a man do anything.

This is absolute wickedness

I pray she recovers

I think her reaction is the immediate effect of prolonged solitary confinement. She will definitely show traits of mental instability. She will need serious pyschological assesment and care.
These treatments are often used for human torture.

Gosh, man has made the world a wicked place. Just hope the guy pays dearly with his life.

Is it not ironic that a party that who made it plainly clear that they are against maintaining a savings buffer against a potential fall in oil price now bemoan the lack of savings today?

Lets also remember that many APC run states, including Kemi Adeosun's Ogun state where she was commissioner of finance, were run as if oil prices will never fall. This explains why they have required bailouts. Remember this when you hear these partisan hacks try to pretend they are different from PDP.

I remember the then opposition spearheading the governor's forum for this call. Now, tables turned.

Can you mention a country, I mean just ONE country, in the world where US military intervention resulted in a positive outcome??

Since the end of WW2, aside from the gains of advancement in space tech, both countries are known to leave tales of blood shed and sorrow in whichever country's affair they dabble into e.g Germany, korea, vietnam,cuba angola, syria, iraq, ukraine, libya etc. If you dont put your nation's affair in order, then dont expect a pope in them because they wine and dine with the devil's hatchet. 70% of the world's war machinery comes from their armoury. Your wars is their own gain.

Another reason why we should get the rail sector properly functional. We might run away from it today, but tomorrow nature has a way of re-aligning fate.

You cant bribe it.

Just saw a documentary on an indeginous citizen of australia who spearheaded the call for self determination of his people as a nation on Aljazeera's "Eye witness" program. I was amazed how a high school graduate was able to channel his cause without anyone losing his or her life. Lesson for some people.

Eagerly waiting to port my mtn number if the service is cheap and genuinely 4G.

you will never find nigerian investors putting money in such creative ideas except importing of petrol, rice, toilet roll, toothpicks and all what not.
Another talent in the wrong country.

Our society dont encourage talent and creativity. A lot of talents have gone into waste, i just hope this one finds his way and get an investor abroad.

I am not here to justfy the amount allocated for this purpose but seriously speaking, for a govt website that should efficiently run all the various MDAs in nigeria on a e-govt platform you will require far more than that. It all boils down to the functionality of the website. If these sites are going to be hosting multiple database and responding to query requests, definitely a regular website does not come to mind. There is the staff angle and of course hardwares, security and maintainace, all working in the background. It all boils down to funtionality. I peronally know of compaies who spend close to 70 million naira yearly on their web infrastructure alone. Whether its justified or not, i am not a financial accountant.

And some fools are bent on scrapping the NYSC.

The rogue elites ganged up to reap the future of this country into shreds by stealing its resources blind. It pains me most that some youths who are blinded by religious, political and ethnic sentiment go on social media to defend these crooks, while PMB a elderstate man who has come of age and maturity continues to fight for the future of a country he still believes in.
It would have been easy for him to just sit back in daura and watch his grandchildren grow, but then this man has shown that the rot of the past can still be corrected.
Yes, he might have his many, many flaws, but then is it the life sucking looters that should be pronounced "saints"? The youths of this country owe it a duty to show faith and conviction in this country.
If a 74 year old man can, why not many of us who still have many, many years ahead.

majekdom2:
do you know Iran's population. They produce about twice of what we produce. They have got functioning refineries , They didn't geneate forex from crude import. An islamic country where you can get money from banks without interest thus, making it easy to do business. Still yet, they needed the sanctions lifted. Now compare to Nigeria.

despite the sanctions, iran was doing business with india, russia and china. If you can sustain trade balance between these three countries, you can very well weather the sanction. The sanctions only prevented them from accessing western markets and its financial infrastructure. Coupled with adeaquate power supply via their nuclear power plant, manufacturing of local goods has been at the positive recieving end unlike ours, without sanctions we produce nothing except oil.
There are so many things we can learn from iran. This is not the best time to be at loggerheads with any OPEC member.

The Nigerian army has ambushed the members of the deadly Boko Haram sect that attacked the troops at old Marte on January 20, Wednesday.


Troops of 153 task force base, on Thursday, killed 5 more insurgents during the operation.

The casualty on the part of the Boko Haram sect now reaches 21.

The weapons recovered are 1 MC-H3 tube panhand aml, 90 gun with registration number 0182; 1 36milimeter handset grenade; 7 pieces of 60milemeter bodies and 3 AK47 rifles.


WARNING GORE IMAGES

I can only imagine the sponsors of BH viewing these pics and saying to themselves "Well, at least they got paid, unfortunately their service and devotion is no longer required". Every rebellion is a secret conspiracy carried out by powerful, untouchable individuals or nations with strong intentions to tip an unfavourable balance. Take out the latter factors and what you are left with is a people in a race for survival.
Its a pity BH would only pass for another deadly national conspiracy in the history of our dear country. I strongly feel nigerians deserve to know those behind BH sponsorship.

Leez:
those names
NCA

why quote a long thread like this just to make short comment. You should be fined to booking space.

This govt just cant take its eyes off oil business for a minute.

DeLaRue:
I was at shoprite in my State on Friday and decided to take a look around their vegetable stand. I was shocked!


There were 3 baskets of tomatoes.

Basket 1 : beefsteak tomato (produce of Nigeria) - N750 per kilo

Basket 2 : beefsteak tomato (label says 'imported') - N1030 per kilo - exactly the same as the ones in basket 1. The only difference was the label.

Basket 3 : Roma (like the ones from the north) - N750 per kilo.


Why would shoprite import a tomato that is exactly the same as the local produce they also had on display?


I walked further down the veg isle, only to see Cabbage imported all the way from Spain. Again the quality was no better than what the Northerners or indeed anyone can produce in Nigeria.

By the way, all the tomatoes in this particular Shoprite were mushy and near-rotten...and I wondered why? Where is the much vaunted Nigerian middleclass who we are repeatedly told are so awash with cash they would buy anything at whatever ridiculous price?

When I got home, I saw a small pack of tomatoes (about 1.5 kg) freshly brought from the market. I asked my wife how much she bought them for - she said N100!. That's roughly N75 per kg, yet Shoprite is using our scarce foreign currency to import a tomato that is not much better to sell for 10 times more. And no one is even buying them...so it seems as they were mostly rotten due to no takers.


It's a crazy country.

This FX ban is one of the best things to happen to Nigeria. I am sorry for the importers obviously, but this is a time we all need to make a sacrifice and think about the future of this country rather than how much Mr A or B can make from importing things we do not need.

The outside world always knew we have the potential to become economic giants, but nigerians are always an impediment to the countrys growth. They will do anything to keep us from growing on our own. Our huge market is always an attractive market for their produce.
The earlier we realise that no citizen of another country will like nigeria better than nigerians, the better for us.

grandstar:
There are bound to. be positives about the foriegn exchange restrictions but the negatives far outstrip them.

Those who desire to export will be disappointed because they have to sell their forex earnings at the official rate.

I wanted to go into export but was discouraged by this policy.

For our industries to really grow, interest rates must come down to single digits first.

This will make them bold enough to borrow massively and import world beating machinery that would boost their productivity and give them an edge over imported items

This is the aspect of our economy that we always hammer on. It is the duty of the finance minister to furnish the public on what the direction will be in correlation with the monetary policy on ground.

Where is that finance minister when you need her? She needs to take notes from NOI, just for morale boosting.

DirtyGold:
System designed to be sleazy... Only a very few truly hardworking and lucky ladies make it in this corporate world of ours without the "services" of their kitten

Bad system!

We live in a society where hardwork is jettisoned and ignore, nepostism and favouritsm is the order of the day. They call it connection. We are doomed in this country.

Offices MDAs prefer to give contracts friends of CEO, church members, family members etc.

JonSnow:
[color=navyblue] Let's not celebrate prematurely. We all know how slow & uninspiring this administration is. [/color]

Blame the discos and not the govt. All i see is akwa ibom govt encouraging foreigners to hijack investment opportunities in nigeria.

No doubt that ICT has the potential to generate massive employment, but the private sector stands a better chance of generating 50,000 such jobs than the govt.
For the govt to be able to generate such amount of jobs as they claim, they need to take ICT to the schools. Sadly, majority of teachers we have are ICT illetrates. This has to be seriously addressed. Not just threatening to sack teachers who refuse to be ICT compliant in a stipulated amount of time, but actually shaping the school curriculums around information technology.

Its worthy to note that these street lights are not connected to the power grid. They are powered independently. Kudos to LASG. BRFs legacy lives on.

Chai!! This is a monumental disgrace. Despite all the oil money.

@Op, you can refine about 105 litres of gasoline or pms from a barrel of oil. If we consume 40 million litres a day, we would require 400,000 barrels per day to be refined in order to meet local demand.
I find it amazing why some nigerians cant seperate economy from politics just for a moment. Politics has become a lifeline for some individuals, thats why we hardly achieve any meaningful economic gain.
Be it natural disaster, epidemic outbreak, weather turbulence etc Nigerians are so sub-consciously quick to politicizing every issue.
Politics has become religion for some people to the detriment of our nationhood.

airsaylongcon:
Sure. The Logistics of getting it to you is what we need to workout.

Okay. Anywhere in lagos will do for me. You?

airsaylongcon:
Dude, I'm against this post. It's nothing personal and I will tell you why. Learning hacking should be done in a controlled environment, a localised lab where things can be carefully managed. You teaching script kiddies how to use BT is like someone teaching an untrained hunter how to shoot a high precision assault rifle... at Oshodi. The fatalities will be high and the mob will catch and kill him

Meanwhile BT is old school Kali ruling the roost. I've got the latest version (3gb plus) available

I have a saying; to be the best whitehat, dine and wine with the best blackhats out there. How fa, can i get kali 64bit version or whichever?

One thing the police have mastered over the years is the art of lying and denial. One of the qualities of an average policeman is lying and deceit. No one is fooled, afterall they are answerable to no one.

Very impressive. Some states are taking the bull by the horn. Thumbs up for Willy and Anambra. As for fulani herdsmen, god punish una ancestor if una you encroach these farm settlements.

And this is a country where people dress up every sunday to worship and friday. I cant imagine the number of nigerians that will burn in hell.
A country of callous and wicked souls. No wonder our country is upside down. Couldnt anyone have dialed 112 or something.

We nigerians arejust as wicked as the leaders we get.

cktheluckyman:
You forgot Sani Yerima was one of the prime actors involved in the palace coup of June 9 2015 that brought Saraki to power. To think they had to go as far as 2006 to get back at him whereas Obasanjo's indictment for $16 billion fraud is left unattended to.

The same Buhari who said he would only probe the GEJ era had to go back as far as 2003 and 2006 to get back at Saraki and Yerima

See am, dem don start. Throwing counter accusations all over the place.
A criminal is yesterday is a criminal anyday. No sins of crime should go unpunished. For now, its the sharia governor's turn today, OBJs turn will surely come.

Where are those sharia court when you need them?

OohLalah:
What you guys do not understand is, South Africa doesn't talk much but act a lot.

1. We had always bought Iran crude oil until 2013 when we forced to stop because of sanctions.

2. We have a working deal on crude with Iran before and we will still have a greater deal after sanctions.

3. This has nothing to with MTN or Nigeria but what is best for SA.

4. The Nigerian Government still has an option to negotiate and make concessions with SA if they want to and not throw tantrums and read things that are not there by retaliation

5. Iran is a gateway of SA companies to the middle east and so far they have been loyal and great friends than Nigeria.

6. Nigeria is a risky investment destination for SA companies and now SA is quietly cultivating new grounds to plant their companies that are less temperamental than Nigeria.

7. Keep watching by the end of the year all the SA companies that are going to expand aggressively to the middle east as an alternative to Nigeria and then majorly stock Nigerian products awaiting another tantrum from Nigerian Government and its people then just withdraw.

8. Lastly, boycotting SA companies will only come at a huge price for Nigerians. Employment, products sourced in Nigeria, Rentals of Malls and there is not even one network that can handle MTN client lines without causing a network standstill.

Dot take my word for it try it.

What exactly does nigeria export to SA? The usual answer, CRUDE OIL!!! Nothing more. Unlike yours, we operate a open door policy when it comes to investment. You operate a very protective economy but your companies are quick to tap from other willing economies.
Majority of your companies make profits from nigeria, but non of your companies is quoted on nigerian stock exchange despite the huge investments by nigerian banks and local investors.

This says a lot about SA. Take a look at the trade volume between the two countries, it majorly tilts in your favor. What does that tell you? Nigeria is a lifeline that SA cannot afford to lose.

Finding a market in the middle east indeed. How much of the north african market have you exploited? Majority of SAs automobile export, especially toyota, goes to nigeria.
This explains why SA has continously opposed toyota's plan to establish a plant in nigeria. You south africans are not good competitors. Your companys go any length to remain dominant and its a pity nigeria has been bedevilled by leaders that are ignorant. But with recent global economic climate and local policy, that would soon change.
The only advantage south africa has over other african nations is nuclear technology for abundant power generation. Remove that from the equation and all is left is economic uncertainty and crisis.
