Exousiang01: Oga can you just shut up for once in your life? stop capping rubbish. BATs policies are wrong thought out policies and no consideration for the masses. They have not reduced their own expenditure but keep taxing the masses to death. No economy grows from taxing it's people more than their capacity to pay.` 1 Like |

iamsense: Same thing I'm talking dummy. God is all good and incapable of evil. So why does it seems like d prayers of evil obidents are answered, while prayers from saints like you (zombies) are not answered. You lack comprehension, I'm not surprised. You can't support Buhari for 8 years, now Tinubu and expect to be normal nah, it just defies logic 1 Like 1 Share |

HenryThegreat1: The situation OP described above is exactly what happens in more advance economy. Nobody buys phone outright, they either swap the old ones for a new one and they pay monthly for even as long 24 month depending on the plan. So what's the fuss all about? |

HenryThegreat1: We need to get it right and do things accordingly, everyone running unnecessary race is more of the reason for curruption everywhere. People just want to show off and that they are better than their neighbors. This government is forcing us to calm down the reality. Why using 3 phones when your income is lesser than 100k/ month and they are not for business?.So by his send term, still cut your coats according to your size and move on. |

Exousiang01: E no go better for you for this comment. It shall never be well for your likes. Do you know the percentage of nigerians suffering under this new regime? Do you know how many business have shut down? Diminishing numbers of available jobs due to high cost? Tinubu doesn't have the interest of Nigerians at heart and that's understandable but it's bastard people like you defending him online that makes people mad. 2 Likes |

[b][/b] beejaay: A good policy Maintain status quo and then improve on it. Any reasonable leader . Should not rush to implement new policy but rather, Maintain what is on ground so as to stabilize the economy , Then gradually adjust some parameters, bit by bit and watch carefully how it affect the masses. This is unlike the Fire budget approach by tinubu in the name of re-newed hope. |

Phone swapping is not real..it is the easiest way to scam prospective customers...this is how phone swapping goes; you meet a phone dealer with your infinix hot 8 and you want infinix hot 40..the phone dealer is actually selling hot 40 100k but because it's swapping deal,he increases the price to 180k then he'll tell you to balance 100k with your hot 8. The best method is before your sell your old phone,check the price of the one you wish for from another dealer,then sell your old phone to another dealer, add money to it and buy |

iamsense: if understanding is not a problem for you, that means you understand my questions properly. you are the one making the insinuation that it is their prayers that is making the economy deteriorate and at the same time you say "It can never be their prayers". if you claim "It can never be their prayers" after insinuating that it is their prayers, what then is responsible for the economy deteriorating? |
