You don't know what average competitors go through while submitting proposals for government contracts.These men like Dangote would be considered many times before u and I are considered bro...He say na being petty,u obviously don't understand how this capitalist feeds off average citizens
Abeg who wrote proposal to FG that was rejected for Dangote... don't let hate ruin your sanity..

There is no business Dangote is involved in that no else does in this country.. from sugar, cement, flour, real estate shipping etc... He only makes the most because he simply has the most investments there..this is common sense..

Is Musk the only one producing electric vehicles..but why does he make the most out of it..

Is Google the only search engine..but why do they make the most money from it...

Happy birthday to a fake Business man being favored by his northern brothers And corrupt politicians , He’s been given the monopoly on cement and In a few years time crude oil refining,
No body will give him monopoly over oil refining...other companies like shell and Chevron who looted the countries resources do not want Nigeria to prosper hence they only want to give exploring and selling the resource only to be sold back to us in another form..

Here you have a man who wants to ensure that resource is processed and consumed in it's home country so that her people do not have to buy products which belongs to them ... He deserves the monopoly because he thought big..

If you want to become a competition..invest $20 in your own refinery if it is easy..

No body stopped anyone from investing in refineries.. stop thinking low.

He made money from selling ordinary cement and sugar ...
Politicians and their friends were given licenses to oil blocks e.g Otedola..

They used the money to flaunt cars, rolls Royce, boats, luxury cars for their kids..

Dangote pushed his self with ordinary cement and sugar..he took loans to build factories that employees thousands..he has never been pictured with rolls Royce and big chains.. abeg

PoliticsRe: Nigeria To Launch Two More Satellites Into Space Soon – Defence Agency by pocom35: 11:23pm On Mar 31, 2023
SmartPolician:
The first question you should have asked yourself is what happened to the previous satellites. Like NNPC, that agency is just another conduit pipe of the government.

There are things that can never work in this country until it is totally overhauled. The earlier you realize that, the better for you.
You should read carefully..

There was a contract for 3..one has been launched. 2 more to go .


It makes no sense to only own one or two satellites..when you have countries operating 200+ at a go

Exactly d point. Some top level managers do nothing in their offices for d whole day and earn millions, while u give 45k to d guys doing most of the job
I wouldn't say they do nothing..

But you can't find them doing hard labour..
If you want to be like them..there are requirements especially in education..
.you equally want to be like those earning 45k..there are also requirements as well..


Such conditions of work are the same everywhere in the world..

See smaller brands like waw,viva, good mama,unik bathing soap, hawaii soap, Eva soap are all cashing out and making huge sales in this bad economy nah him Unilever dey phase out some household products. Nah wa

They should divert those monies to marketing. They should recruit boys and girls on the street and use them to do aggressive marketing. Can't they learn from the way waw they do street marketing.

viodemus:
Am sure others are. But think about the way they have systematically pushed igbos to crime. Any fg project that will be within the reach and convenience of igbos, are blocked and delayed. The borders in the north are wide open, they will rather build train and its tracks to run to niger, they have dominated all the forces of the federation - not because they are more intelligent or more qualified, they always treat igbos as refugees because when they go to other regions, they don't want to buy or pay rent. They signed and keep renewing the signing of including Nigeria to a terrorist organization - anti American, anti Israeli, anti UK - in the deeds of OIS (organizations of islamics states). A legit terror list. Then they don't want us to rule but they want to rule us.

50 years of stupidity is a teacher to understand a situation or predicament.

Igbos are not drug heavy people. Some bad eggs are enabling an evil environment. They will be taught a lesson by the igbos, but the wicked people from other tribes, are bent on our destruction, even though we have the most patriotic people than many other groups, especially over the Sw and the north.
How has the FG solely pushed igbos to crime..

So other regions are not involved in crimes or what exactly is your point..

The fact that you agree other tribes are involved in drug offense shouldn't make you bothered about measures to quench it..
And even if it is your tribes men that are mostly involved.. should that be the reason why the FG should be cool with them in order not to send marginalization signals?..

Should I remind you that Hausa fulani have monopoly in Boko Haram and ISWAP terrorism.. with your ideology... So government was being biases by buying Tucano jets, weapons etc to finish Hausa fulani terrorist?..

If you can't reason beyond tribe and religion then something fundamental is wrong...

You also don't pay attention to facts and details..the rail to Niger doesn't have funds available ...there are several projects approved more than 2 years ago that hasn't commenced...FEC approvals means all of the necessary procedures and due process for a project is satisfactory expecting funding for take of...may I remind you that.. port Harcourt Maiduguri railways and even Lagos calabar and Ibadan to Kano have received FEC approvals..Google is your friend..


Mention the border in ebonyi that is shutdown or is narrowly opened because that is the only bordering state in Igbo land..
You can add cross river if you like..

This is democracy..no body is bonding igbos away from ruling..
Igbos keep playing politics with emotions and sentiments...

Rigging aside...the fundamental reason why Obi lost his chance is because he barely had tangible votes from the core north whom we both know their votes always determines who win or lose..

Tinubu had tangible support from the south and north..

You can't be shouting Biafra and abusing a certain region for over 4 years with Nnamdi kanu..and you want them to come and vote you in mass when elections come even if you have the best candidates..for where?.. do you think it is only competency that can take you high.. inshort suffering under this hardship isn't enough reason for everyone to now hand over to igbos who are good in business and economy...you have to build alliance..



When Tinubu went to the north romancing them and Yorubas keeping silent.. Igbos were insulting him..you think tinubu was carrying out a foolish move..
When Tinubu helped buhari to become a 2 term president while igbos hated him for nothing..you think he was playing?..so all of a sudden Obi appears and north should ignore Tinubu's effort and give obi their backing?

Politics is a dirty game ..you don't have to love the rules..but you must abide by it if you must win..build alliances ..non of the politicians are saint..

I don't know why you keep accusing a certain tribe of wanting to rule you always..
Since democracy started...there have been more southern president with more years occupied in Aso rock than the north..OBJ, GEJ both occupied 14 years.. tinubu makes it 18 ..PMB and UYA with 10 years.. so what is the injustice..

Another strategy to systematically arrest their enemies- the igbos.

We are too dull sometimes. Maybe it is the long term suffering that has affected us. This is a one tribe, one region, and one religion, dominated project. They are looking for various ways to remix hisba and book haram, by putting them in a sham legal attire.


Freedom from bondage is not easy. First off, let us be ever vigilant. Let us move in secrecy. Any anti American or Israeli agenda, will not be our policy or have our support. This is to use the opportunity to get close, and then kpai as much people while also arresting the Americans and israelis. We should never support such terrorist activities. This is nothing but a tribal agenda, with their sw slaves.
So you are saying igbos are the only ones into drugs?

Imagine the kind of Priorities the APC led federal Government has.

Of what benefit is Niger Republic to us? We have sectors in Nigeria in need of such funds and all buhari thinks about is pumping our money into another country cos his relative live there.

Is that how Obama pumped US money into Kenya?

If not for God we would have had RUGA killer herdsmen settlement all over Nigeria.

We should never allow dull.ards into the helms of affairs of our country ever again. This should be the last one.
RUGA settlement has actually begun ..and payment have been paid to a few states.. Ebonyi and kastina has gotten atleast 6bn..RUGA also known as ranching is the solution to the herdsmen crises we have today... The aim is to keep cows at a spot instead of moving them to eat people's farm ..so no need to politicize it..


The rail will run through Nigeria..inshort more 87% of the track and infrastructure is in Nigeria..
But since the end point is about 30km from Niger .they want to extend it in order for Niger as a country to do their imports and exports through it.. WhIch means more revenue.. instead of just leaving it to stop in Nigeria ..

Same way .. Buhari extended the Lagos Ibadan rail line which was primarily supposed to stop at Ebute meta in yaba from Ibadan ..they extended it to Apapa so that cargo can travel on it.

This simp, rest!

Any sex between two consenting adults is their business.

God will only ask you about your own consensual fornications, and not mine. Neither will he ask me about yours.

So you can't tell me which sex is wrong or right. Na still the same toto and amu, the only difference is the title.

Moreover, the most important thing and end goal of every fornication is to achieve the motive behind it for each of the partner involved - money, promotion, children, love, vacation, relief of stress, fun, iphone, revenge, or whatever is the tangible and abstract motive behind such a biological act between such willing partners.

Stop gaslighting people for committing the same sin as you in a different way.
