Why would you hope that for me? You're toxic and overbearing, you know. I haven't offended you in anyway and you have this kind of hope for me? You're worse than the leaders you criticize, jsyk.

If a card or tablet of drug is sold for 100k, I won't still care, in as much as it is not affecting the real Patriots. My happiness is that the Igbos are only the people suffering from the change in price. They must learn a political lesson in a hard way.

Theunbothered:


You mean in Nigeria I can't threaten to sanction or seal your business based on flimsy accusations just so I can get shares in it?

Or in Nigeria the border wasn't closed unjustly so rice farmers could have a monopoly?

You can swear that it hasn't happened before?




Yes after selling majority stake in their business to a government run mafia the mafia is just going give it back to them. You are very smart.




You think this way because you have no idea how business oversight or brand recognition works.

lordm:
Peter Obi is one of the largest importers of goods

Theunbothered:
You are the worst kind of snake in human form. The kind that supported a a candidate that everyone knew would fail and are now crying because the failure is starting to manifest in your personal life.

We warned of the real consequences that would happen, we warned you Tinubu's reputation was built on lies and he only cares about enriching himself YET you supported him anyway.

Ruining the lives of millions for the greed of someone who doesn't send your fada is worse than any insult. I only hope you fall sick and feel the full impact of Tinubu's governance as soon as possible.

SeaTrade:
No you can't.
I said they can buy back their shares from the market so the government mafia can't access them if that's the case.
You just can't walk up to GSK and force them to own shares chief.

Emotional thinking again,borders were closed to combat SMUGGLING of rice,not its importation.
You wanna import rice?Good!Put the destination to apapa or tincan and not put destination to cotonou or Douala and sell to smugglers that later get it to Nigeria with zero duty and levy in most cases.

Monopoly wasn't given to local farmers,get your facts right and put your sentimental reasoning in check.

I have no knowledge how business oversight and branding works?The way you clowns on NL assume things on people you don't know is funny honestly.

Let me give you one example,
You know BAT(British American Tobacco) right?
Where is their operation presence in Nigeria despite having a large factory here?

haybhi1:

Watch your mouth. Goodnight.

haybhi1:


Even though no be Tinubu fault say he bring now-useless Buhari, No wahala, I go remind you by December. Tinubu's unlikely to disappoint me.🤝

Theunbothered:

Don't worry I will wake you up in December

Makunahatata:
counter what I wrote

Theunbothered:


Guy you reason like a child.

When Wale Edun has majority stock at GSK what are they going to buy?




So you closed the border to stop the already illegal activity the border was created to stop.

Now explain did closing the border stop smuggling of rice? Yes or no?



They literally celebrated the border closure because they said "We can feed the country and export" that was literally the whole reason for the closure to "boost local production" of rice.

It's not an assumption from what you have shown in this short exchange you display a unique naivety and lack of understanding of how the Nigerian economic climate works.


A complete non-sequitur, only 5% of Nigerians smoke, every Nigerian has been sick, some multiple times a year.

Their products are also highly regulated as a health hazard, tobbaco companies aren't even allowed to advertise in Nigeria.

This is the time to walk the talk, from Importation to production like Importer Obi said

Erisco food buys tomatoes from Jos and make paste, he is from Anambra,

Peter Obi and Next Mall sells Hienze tomato sauce from xenophobic SouthAfrica

Mahatma Gandhi ; told Indians... if you can't make cloths die naked, if you can't farm die hungry, if you can't produce drugs be sick, if you can produce what you need without west then die


.

SeaTrade:
Borders were not created to stop illegal activity but to demarcate countries apart.
It doesn't have to stop it to prove effective,rather reduce the activity significantly as no policy or line of action is absolute(you're too dumb to know this).
With all the resources expended at policing the US/Mexico border to combat narcotics, Mexico still has a $30B/year narcotic industry.
Do you now see how naive you are?

Of course the local farmers will be happy because it favours them ,but was it to enrich them or give them any sort of monopoly?No,because no one stopped you from importing rice through right channels.

5% of a 200m people market is 10m.That is a huge marketshare GSK don't even have because there's something called competition

Might shock you to know BAT has more revenue than that useless GSK in Nigeria.

Their product are regulated doesn't mean they shouldn't operate here or have brand presence na,there are others operating fulltime like WAT,
Why then does BAT not operate too like them?
So you random nairalander is smarter than all the technocrats at BAT right?

Theunbothered:

So America should close the Mexican border right?
The last time they did it during the pandemic the economy suffered.

Closing the border to drugs makes even more sense than rice RICE o.



Which right channels when they closed the bloody border?
You make the right channel illegal them complain about it later.

Nigerians couldn't even get forex to import rice until earlier this year.



You think this is about money? People are at risk of dying because all medication has become expensive across the board. If British and American tobacco leaves Nigeria people won't die because of it.



They are useless but Nigerians are crying to Tinubu because they can't afford asthma medicine.

Drop their sales figures for Nigeria, they make most of the money by producing here and selling abroad. Let's see how much it compares with GSK.



I litteraly just explained the current situation and you're grasping at straws to prove a point that leads nowhere.

Bliss62:


Should we increase National debt to defend Naira and import everything from drugs to food or are we going to act like human being with resources and knowledge and start local Production

Sillymoderators:

So you expect the importation to stop gbam! Just like that! Just the way you people believe Obi is coming to perform miracles.

2tpick:

I have been following ur exchange with seatrade and I must say u made the superior argument and straight to the point. Coming to the border closure, I dont understamd why he will say that borders are just for demarcation and not checking illegality. Why then would he put a fence around his house and ask a gate man to man it. Also ur counter argument of making the right channels illegal was also spot on. Its not a must that every imported rice must land at tincan or a papa wharf. Other countries are taking advantage of informal cross border trade.

SeaTrade:
America can't close Mexico border because trade between both countries is formal and generate revenue for both governments,unlike their Nigerian counterparts where informal trade ,false declarations and smuggling is the order of the day in that scene.
So why shouldn't I close it if it threatens my local industry ?afterall it generates nothing for me.

You are very dull.How is the land border the right channel for importing rice that comes from Asia?
Are you mad?

You can't get fx from official markets don't mean you can't get fx,go to the parallel markets because we can't be expending so much fx to import rice that is grown locally.So get your own Fx,import and pay my duty at the ports.

GRV is crying ,not Nigerians.No be only GSK get inhalers.

If BAT leaves Nigeria, its thousands of direct and indirect workers will lose their livelihoods and suffer economically,GSK Nigeria is too small to have such effect and their consumers will simply port to their competitors ,No one will die except GRV.

There's a $1.4B PA tobacco market in Nigeria and BAT is its market leader,do the maths.
They don't even need to export to flop GSK's $50m revenue PA.

Your explanations are useless,and I'm exposing how empty they are to sound minds.

Learn to read and understand.......the last airbnb I stayed in NYC was $88/night in 2022, same place goes for $264 per night now.

I have friends in the U.S who can't afford to pay their mortgage again, and had to forfeit their home this year. Mind you, they've owned the house for over 8 years. This is the first time I am traveling and every Uber driver who has picked me up have some horrible lamenting about inflation. Imagine a house where husband and wife are working, yet, all their salaries goes in to bills.

I am not here to compare, my point is that its crazy all over the world.

You know its crazy when you see Indians leaving Canada and moving back to India.
