In light of the protests which have just occurred. Going forward. Will the government have the nerve to - 1. Go ahead with the purchase of a $100 Million new presidential jet 2. Refuse to revisit the allowances of law makers 3. Anytime within the next two years, take any steps aimed at increasing taxes or prices of any kind. |

Yes, they will go ahead and purchase a $200 Million new presidential jet because the price has gone up due to inflation. No, they will not Refuse to revisit the allowances of law makers because they would revisit to double it. Yes, Anytime within the next two months, they will take many steps aimed at increasing taxes and all prices of all kinds because they must increase igr to pay the new 70k minimum wage. |

budaatum:Don't you think any such steps will amount to severely tempting the people? I mean, risking an explosion. |

DeepSight:Na. I don't think we Nigerians have the balls to explode no matter how badly we are tempted. We are just far too disorganised and disunited, and besides, we did vote for what we are getting, or not getting as the case is. |

DeepSight:Of course pigs can possibly fly, I'm told. Just that I haven't come across any flying pigs yet. |

budaatum:You have never seen a flying pig? Are you serious? That's odd. |
