E be like say nah for France these IMF guys they give baba these " AUSTERITY MEASURES" when e dey take flog Nigerians ,next is
- Increasing borrowing and lending rates
- A slight increase in PAYE and different consumption tax.
The middle class will be wiped out completely, nawah!

This country eeh...is this how students loan work?, See conditions ,this is just a trap, will the interest not be compounding?..this is just a loan at 10% with a repayment period starting in year six or seven, when ASUU dey on strike your loans will possibly be compounding at 10% per annum.
It should designed like how students seek for forex when going to study abroad, you shouldn't need any guarantee and no repayment until you start earning a certain level of income.
To me this is a glorified loan 🦈.
What do I know?

Nah when APC no give am " minister of petroleum/NigerDelta/works"...nah im things go start to sup...no be wike again?

Why not bring the palliatives first, even if it's brought in gradually, even with a proposed plan of removing subsidy in 2012 that included palliatives Tinubu and co. Say "lie lie", - we cannot trust this Government...now you want millions of masses to start suffering because they want to enjoy in future...Why did NNPC adjust their price , Why??, Just tell me...the product they have in storage the government have already paid subsidy for those product and even budgeted for June..brink the palliatives and prosecute the thieves then fully deregulate the upstream sector...

Cyberterror:
NLC is currently led by Joe Ajaero, an openly partisan Igbo man who is part of the Peter Obi plot to steal President Bola Tinubu's mandate and he is playing his role by destabilizing the country with planned strike even though all the major contenders in the last election including the party he is supporting, and Nigerians in general have agreed that subsidy is a scam which must go. The DSS warned against people like Ajaero who want to torment trouble and he must be arrested if he insists on the strike. What labour should be talking of now are palliatives not a reversal of the subsidy removal. Joe Ajaero is an enemy of Nigeria who must not be allowed to carry out the hatchet job he is doing for the defeated labour party.

So why didn't competition bring down the price of diesel?...using your analogy.

nairalanda1:
Prices will come down

It happened with the GSM sector. SIM cards were expensive in 2001. So expensive that as a student, I laughed when someone like V -mobile came advertising with their then N20000 package. (Just the sim).

Now, thanks to competiton, the prices of a SIM are so low, I've gone through over 5 of them in the last 14 years. Lol.

The same thing will happen with fuel...but it won't be below 200 naira anymore. That ship has sailed.

When I dey explain to someone say exchange rate goes beyond conversion them no dey understand..them never hear of " Purchasing power"...if Nigeria no get insecurity issues it would have been the cheapest and one of best place to live on earth ...

inoki247:
Lol nothing like not so things are costly dere....


How much is a 30cl coca-cola 5cedis that's like 300naira and we still buy 50cl in Nigeria for 200naira...


Club Lager Beer is sold for 11 cedis that's like 700 and the standard isn't more than our Normal Goldberg, Throphy


How Much is dere Gulder 11 cedis to 12 cedis how much is Gulder in Nigeria.....


Compare derr market with Nigeria market unless you want to lie to yourself and don't use CBN exchange rate cos CBN will never give Cedis to goan spend in Ghana you will pass through Black Market so that's how things work....


If a Ghanaian Brings dere currency to Nigeria he will surely get value for his money than taking Naira to Ghana...


The amount I bought my Hisense 42inch smart TV is the same amount you will get an Hisense Ordinary TV 42inch with Satellite dish inbuilt..

All this are not made up but talking from experience you can go to Nigeria Jumia and Ghana Jumia and compare things yourself...

And some kids go come here they talk say nothing they UK...but your leaders leg and their family no they comot there..if you get good skill even if nah barbing just sabi am well, nah you go run for hustle..if you can leave , leave ooh!!!

When them tell Tinubu and co camp that time say " suffer today and enjoy tomorrow" ..e say lie lie,...so make e leave like am like that...after all e transform Lagos even when government they pay subsidy, so e no suppose disturb am from transforming naija....chikena!!

blacknp:
Suffer today, & enjoy tomorrow, Nigeria will never move forward, there is no industrialized nation that did not sacrifice once upon a time in their history, even the great United States, went through the Great Depression to take over the world less than 20 years after.

Due to the commencement of the Second World War, we need reorientation in Nigeria either voluntary or by force.

I'm guessing that the guy no won do care work...maybe ego issues and that's a sure way for divorce...he was only playing with 🔥

Too much "ODEHCHI"...













ODEHCHI means sugar.. 😂

Abeg make our leaders hand no touch these drugs ooh..I no won hear ..Emilokon to ♾️

By now una suppose don understand say this decision is political, Chelsea needs a British coach to promote the Britain agenda especially to get the protection they want from England since they have broken the UEFA fair play rules..I think it's part of the agenda .

Your analysis make sense die....the drafters of the constitution wanted the candidate to must win the FCT as is represents the diversity of the country and it's the seat of power, if Lagos was still the FCT maybe they would have said and Lagos state...this is one of the reasons they moved FCT from Abuja to give it it's exclusivity...if the supreme court says otherwise then Abuja should have governor,deputy governor, state assembly, equal number of senators and representatives...let's wait and see

witsel4:
Read section 297 to 304 of the 1999 constitution on the composition and status of the FCT. You'll understand that Tinubu failing to score the required 25%, means he is not duly elected.
The president is in its equivalent the governor of Abuja, the vice as the deputy governor, federal House serves as the equivalent of state Houses of assembly and also attorney General of the federation as the commissioner for justice in the FCT. So failing to score the mandatory 25% in the FCT makes him ineligible to seat at the FCT as the governor of the said State. There by making him not duly elected as a president

Lies ..Techno works perfectly in the UK..na im I take send you this message!

NwaliE01:
I laugh. Until you leave Africa, you wouldn't believe that this phones doesnt work outside Africa.
They literally compare techno phones with phones within its class and region. Nothing like Techno in Australia.

The discretion is to make the law and not to break it.

Nothing I repeat nothing go happen to Emefiele.... person they take order from Buhari una no go go hold Buhari, una won use Emefiele take shine..

It is not always about saying things emotionally,my choice in this election was between Tinubu and Obi because power should rotate,that being said the law does not say you must transmit results but it mandated you to set the guidelines for the election now when you set the guidelines it automatically becomes law if you as INEC decide to change the law which you have powers to do you must inform the public of the new guidelines and those that feel the need for further interpretation can approach the court..now the guidelines set by INEC was changed immediately before and during the Presidential election this is the issue here.
After the President of Nigeria the INEC chairman is the most powerful position in the country, the powers held by just one man is too much, there should be a returning officer from each region of the country that will have to vote including the chief returning officer and by simple majority before the president can be announced..this power go destroy our democracy, if as America develop reach they still rely on the Electoral college then we need to protect our democracy..
This was the same reason the PDP government removed the power to declare a state governor after election cases by the appeal court,.. Tinubu smartly exploited that loophole using Salami..that is what is playing out here again.
Anyways all aggrieved parties should approach the court.

oyin44:
Judging from what he said,

It is obvious that Atiku and obi chances of success are small.


Atiku obi and kwankwaso are acting as one after election. .Medicine after death

I called you out for blackmailing other tribes/ethnicity contributing to the growth of Lagos even since pre - independence with this argument of saying the easterners for example are disrespecting thier host or dragging Lagos with the westerners, how is this possible? Easterners no they pay tax or have they ever been a governor of Lagos? and If you consider how strategic Lagos is to the whole southern Nigeria you are bound to have this mix opinion about 'Lagos' because it has always built itself with a non-ethnocentric principle that's is why they say it's a no mand land like in major cities e g London the PM has Indian heritage, that's why Lagos is the center of excellence, the word no man's land is the strength of Lagos economically it's not a weakness,(anybody can come and make it).
Now can you say that the easterners are disrespectful to their host in Ogun,Ekiti,Osun and Oyo? can you?
You are just trying to be clever by half by saying oil companies in the southern part of Nigeria are employing lots of westerners because they are more educated than the southerners then when the e.g first Finance minister post independence was from the south.
I hope in the next 50 years the westerners will not come and tell us that they were the one that would either be president or vice since 1999 because they were the most qualified?

lailo:
You lack ability for basic judgement. You are just mixing things together. Those oil companies are private entities by multinationals. They will only employ capable hands, they choose who they want to employ, west don't choose for them. Most westerners were lucky to be early employees bcs they were more educated and qualified during those times. Your kinsmen were not interested in education then, only interested in royalties and entitlements. Now that they have all woken up and sending their children to school, do u know that the influence of the westerners have reduced drastically with the demand of the oil community to oil companies to first consider indigines. Do u still compare that to an Igbo who claims Lagos is no man's land, talk down on the people but yet grow his life there? Is any Yoruba man dragging PH or Enugu Or Akwa Ibom or Anambra with any indigines over there or try to dictate their politics. What audacity.

This your cheap blackmail no go work on me, if I hear say you no they struggle with wetin, the westerners have strategically positioned theirselves in all the major oil, petrochemical companies here for South abi the indigenes no get graduates?...you guys will not complain because you guys dominate the system here in the south., As soon as table start to turn then you will start to agitate, the West have ruled for right years been vice for eight years wants to rule for another eight years.
How dear you point fingers?

lailo:
You are a dumbo. Those westerner u mentioned don't have problem with their host bcs they don't pass their boundary. They never abuse their host after taking so much from PH. They never claim to own the place or call it all kinds of derogatory names. They never struggle with their host and don't try to dictate her politics. Because they live in Rome, they behave like the Romans. That is what the man is trying to say. The Igbos are the problems. Why are yorubas not having problems with other tribes, or is it only Igbos that are in Lagos? Dumbo, ask yourself?

If majority of Nigerians say they want Jagaban in a free and fair election so be it, gat no problem with that...but as you claim for the last 30 years nah only Jagaban build Lagos?....no tribe fit claim Lagos, I repeat no tribe fit claim Lagos, .. everybody sweat they there,if not the rest part of the west for be like Lagos.

Alliswell248:
Lagos ceased to be federal capital more than 30 years ago but the state is waxing stronger....
Jagaban is coming....

Lagos was federal capital territory and strive for not being ethnocentric, just like other major cities, even before independence, Dumbo's they find this hard to understand, the westerners wey they enter night bus they come portharcourt when they earn 800k to 1mil a month especially from Oyo, Ondo and Osun make we start to disrespect them too?

That camera you took at the lekki toll gate..we also demand to know the outcome of that script you acted...Awon demanders!!

Person wey say he is ready to fight dirty ...you think say him come play... every sacrifice he has ever made in his life was for this ambition..just they watch the next line of action....even Buhari go hear am hot, them still they observe.

Lol...nah for practical nah.

Madam rest abeg..naso so complain most of una Sabi, coming from a person when go withdraw dollars for BBC interview to influence election primaries for Calabar..make she close mouth jor.

I hope after una enter we no go they hear from Mr Bayo ( Info. Minister) say " Chasing out kidnappers begins with you"?..

The honourable thing for the CBN governor to do is to resign ... foolish old men with PhDs lacking critical thinking, instead of you to tighten the cashflows making it almost impossible for politicians to get access to these huge cashflows during their primaries etc..you just wake up with this type of terrible policy... banking system that have been seriously compromise na im you expect to support this policy?...

No mind them..no be only market forces, diesel price no gree come down since them remove subsidy nah this Nigerian system you won practice full scale capitalism..even the affordable school fees for federal university nah im be the next...I swear if Nigerians loose guard ehh.. anyways body don they tell us small small..

Temidayo9:
There won't be any market forces anywhere when subsidy eventually removed, Nigerians are Naturally wicked and exploitative.

It's innate I have said over and over again...we just they brag about suffering, on Sunday we go they call am testimony, intelligent people weh just choose to suffer too much like this....just because nobody cares, no light ,. Ahh I remembered how my business was in darkness ( no NEPA light) for seven months I dey go NEPA office almost twice month..small time them say the maintenance Engr papa die ..nah so we start to wait till after burial..on top this one two kidnapping take place with ransom paid...ahh the suffer too much, eating two square meals is now a luxury for many people..

There is nothing special about these men ..una too they over hype ordinary people...it's simple the banks are fighting back because of thier own interest moving money up and down during elections rakes in good money for the bank executives especially from logistics, they know this...every politician also needs money to mobilize people ...using Tinubu as an example he can easily get assess to money in Lagos ...what happens in Gombe, Delta, Nasarawa etc ...last last them go extend am..Our institution is wey too weak, we can can't just make headway with this system.. people wey they criticize Emefiele now no do so when them buy am presidential form ooh,una dey see the sign since and una quiet.. bloody hypocrites..

See person wen won be president, see wetin you they utter, so a section of this country needs to support a particular tribe or person for them to qualify as Nigerians, nah this one won change Nigeria so to eldorado, turn by turn Mr SPV...bloody thief!!!

I actually thought Tinubu was really progressive but these statements are shocking,..so this is why you want special status for Lagos?..now from Tinubu house to Ikeja airport where e for take flight go Abia, how many things you fit point from roads,markets, Bridges, stadiums, airports etc say "see see see nah Tinubu build that one" ....The northerners get foresight abeg, nah now I start to they look them well to move the Capital from Lagos yo Abuja...nah to avoid situations like this.. Britains annex capital, former Nigerian capital,
all major multinationals head office, major parastatals, every state get liason office for Victoria island ...I hope them no go say we they need visa to enter Lagos .Nawaoh!!

themanderon:
Just Imagine. So in order words he is the landlord of Lagos then? The way these arrogant politicians talk while their puny brained followers clap is sickening. How can an ex governor claim to be the landlord of a state he governed last in 2007? In saner climes this will be a cause for concern but over here anything goes.
