You actually thinks na all us dey gullible like the obidients? President Tinubu is the best president Nigeria has ever had and God willing we shall vote for him again

I hate idiots!

No be even better countries commot self...they can go and die in hell...who cares about terrorists supporters countries

It's the "God bless you" that is making me angry. God bless her as in how?

ManirBK:
I understand your point, but let's look at the full picture.

This isn't just "free money" being thrown around.

· Local economy: The furniture was sourced from local manufacturers and traders in Kebbi. That means carpenters, welders, tailors, and transporters were all paid. So the money circulated within the state, not into some politician's private account.
· For the couples: Many of these are low-income widows, divorcees, and young men who couldn't afford the ₦250k dowry + furniture on their own. For them, this is a fresh start and a dignified way to build a home.
· Societal impact: Supporting marriage reduces issues like street begging, out-of-wedlock pregnancies, and gives orphans a stable family structure.

Is it the only solution? No. But is it a total waste? I don't think so.

Still total waste. For every kobo spent, the politicians will still get the lion share through inflated budgets.

Carpenters, tailors, welders will still make sales of be patronize if this money i use to build mico industries.

The 36 + governors are all mediocres. Stupid mediocres

Discountsempai:
Garri is made from cassava, which is not indigenous to Nigeria or Africa. It came from South America.

Go and sit down fes abeg

Las las na snake go kill this one...

Well let me budget from experience especially as a man with three kids and a wife + myself. I don't earn up to 300k, I earn about 258k. Here is how I spend it.

Tissue 1k
Toothpaste -1k200
Gas - 10k
Children Tp - 10k
Church - 12k
C. Fish - 6k
Palm kernel oil - 1k
Soap washing - 2k
Soap bathing - 2k
Tomatoes satchet - 2k
Spicies - 3k
Salt - 500
NEPA - 10k
Onions - 1k
Papper - 500
Maggie - 2250
Palm oil - 2k500
G.oil - 2k
Roll-on - 2k200
Rice 1/2 bag - 18k500
Beans 50 cups - 12k500
Water - 5k
Gotv - 3k600
Soup 15k
Mumcy support - 7k. (She is a retired and earns pension of upto 80k plus am not the only child. Others the send in their support)

126,600 approximately 130k.
Impulse (but this buy that) - 23k

Total- 157k.

So if I earn 300k, I will spend 160k and save 140k

None is hurtful to me because no one opinion matters to me. Nothing concern me concern anybody

So you are saying that God moved you from masturbating to fornication? ...and you are proud to announce the transition. Haba, fear God abeg.

Na like this war d take start... Traditional age vs international age...war scatter!

No be only George na Kings.

enemyofprogress:
Please george not so as not to be georged

They mention more than six cities/countries including Turkey and London but it's Isreal that is your problem

Mattswaggz:
Should Putin do that it'll be a dangerous escalation towards global tensions...... Israel might want to fight back to make a statement against violating their sovereignty but they're hardly a match for Russia.

Their relationship might go further downwards as well......Putin should ensure that he has exhausted all diplomatic platform to get Israel to stop aiding Ukraine(that's if this report is true) before resorting to use of force.

You are so so wrong. I work in a private university. Nothing like housing benefit or free education for your kids.

If there is accommodation, you will be charged from your monthly salary. There will be some waiver but it's never tangible enough. So get your facts right

SixSeven:
I am not going to defend anyone but I know lecturers get some extra benefits. I am wondering why a lecturer will post his payslip, your personal information to prove what point? Back to the extra benefits, one of them will be housing. I don't know what the accommodation was. Some schools have staff quarters which is housing benefit and when people compare salaries, they forget that part. If you have children, they may go to that school free as a staff.

Their academic calendars typically include long breaks between semesters. Although lecturers still do some work during these periods, they usually have more downtime than many corporate roles. Compared with many private-sector jobs, lecturers may teach only a few hours per week. Much of the rest of the time can be self-scheduled. Outside exam periods, schedules can be relatively flexible.

Lecturers often have access to sports centers, libraries, staff clubs, campus transportation systems and other amenities that are usually free or very inexpensive.

When people compare lecturers’ salaries to private-sector salaries in Nigeria, they often ignore the cost savings from housing, schooling, healthcare, and utilities. Those benefits can reduce major household expenses that private-sector workers typically pay fully out of pocket.

Getat. If...if...if... Una no d tire

If arsenal no win d league then d matter don pass village people own

Watch as they will tell us they spent 50bn to evacuate them from I. RAN

I believe there is more money for states to spend. Federal government must ensure that these monies given to states and councils are judiciously used.

Citizens must also turn their attention to state government. Minimum wage must be paid not on adjustment method but on relevant calculate matrix.

States should begin to implement viable projects that are people oriented. We should begin to invest more on electricity generation and distribution, good housing, health care, quality education, portable water, good road network, etc.

God bless Nigeria and may He send us good leaders. Amen!

josielewa:
DONT MIND THEM. ITS JUST MORE REVENUE FOR THE THIEVING POLITICIANS

So the other family members also refused to enter their bunkers because they want to die with their father or they are all 86 years old?

Be staying in Nigeria and fanyourself with excuses to increase your delusions

kingthreat:
Not true. Take note, the ayatollah was killed because he refused to be moved to a safer abode.

They renamed it after one of their oppressors. But will throw tantrums if we name a Church after God's saints such as St. Mary, St. Peter, St. Paul, St. Joseph or any of those triumphant souls.

On the day of presidential election, all networks will likely give us minimal network to make upload difficult. They will be bought over by government.

Unfortunate country!!!

Where is the man from? We can also say " don't go to dentist in...his country". So where is he from?

Purely AI. Zoom all the images. They are fake. So called educated Nairalanders can't even decode this. Them don d throw jab already

God have mercy on you always

Namaster:
The Bible and the religion it teaches should NEVER be taken seriously.

The man you allude to is a BTASARD.
His father had sex with another man's wife.
Then MURDERED the man.

Yet both of them are still VENERATED as great Kings.
And the father is regarded as a prime example of a man with a great relationship with God.

The Bible is a JOKE.

It's not stabilizing. We have gotten used to hardship. So any small drop in price makes us fill as if they is positive change.

Gas is 1150
Palm oil 1500 a bottle
Groundnut oil is 2500 a bottle.
Meat is still expensive

So while rice and beans have drop, the basic ingredients and stuff needed to cook it have not drop. So the relief from rice and beans is used to purchase other ingredients which have inturn cancel the supposed "relief"

Sharp sharp u don introduce tribal sentiments inside. Tackle the issue and stop behaving like past tense.

badoh:
Why did this Ningi keep mute when Buhari was in power and did not raise alarm that Nigeria might have been short-changed due to inferior equipment? They always flex their muscles when a northerner is not in power and you'll think they love the masses by raising points of order, nonsense.

Election do near, Tinubu don d fall. Next nah to d yarn bulaba

So when they fell, did we not talk? E don reach Tinubu turn u say make we silent. No nah

HacheNoire:
Trump and Biden fell so I don’t why people are making Tinubu’s own a topic.

It’s normal for people at their age to miss steps.

Sorry for your loss

If both you and her father had behave maturely by putting her first, they would have been no need for separation and both daddy and mummy would have always been there together for her.

But no daddy was pursuing new pussy while mummy was pursuing new dick.
Now, this little girl is the casualty. Very annoying!

How does this concern a candidate who lost election?
If our leaders are doing well with economy, then we will all be able to pay for band A even A+. Nigerians are very hard working people. You don't need to be told, but bad leadership erodes the gains of our hard work. Let the leaders go to work, improve economy and purchasing power and leave d rest for hardworking Nigerians

Azazyel:
Look I don't care about tinubu or any other contestant. Hope you know that constant power supply is expensive. Are most Nigerians willing to pay more for quality power supply? I can tell you without mincing words that many places in Lagos right now enjoy close to 24hrs light but they are paying more. In my area, we enjoy at least 20hrs light daily cos we are on band A and we recharge lots of units cos of the constant light and sometimes I even have to turn off power just to conserve units. Even areas on band B here enjoy at least 15hrs light so what are you talking about? Something happened at Ajah recently. Some of the residents marched to EKEDC office demanding to be downgraded from band A and B cos they were spending so much on electricity. Their prayers were answered and they were downgraded. Some to band C, D and E. Do you know how many places have been downgraded last year? Go to advanced countries like the US and see whether electricity is cheap then you'll understand. If you need your feeder to be upgraded, raise the discussion amongst people in charge of your area and march there to demand an upgrade but just get ready to pay more. Simple! This is not a tinubu issue. Nobody send your candidate to lose election

Stale and useless excuse all the time

nairalanda1:
1. When Ukraine was part of the great CCCP, it had nuclear stations built by Moscow.

The problem is, all that nice infrastructure cost the CCCP a lot of money. And at the end of the day, it led to it's collapse


2. Average prices of power in Ukraine is 0.1 dollars. Residential.

Nigeria, it's 0.036 dollars. Add the fact that 60% of Nigerians bypass meters, and forty percent of Nigerians don't pay for power and less than 20% of Nigerians pay a cost reflective tarrifs for power, things that don't happen in Ukraine and you will see why we dont have power, regardless of who is in charge


I'm not defending thiegubu the drug man. You cannot run a business when most of your customers are underpaying you or not paying.
