you live in lagos - swift, spectranet them give you more gb/naira

raumdeuter:
You think any of these politicians really believe anyone likes them? You are from Edo, Oshiomole, Obaseki, Ize Iyamu, Igbinedion Kabaka etc see how they have moved around that you cant even say who is for and against who anymore

Same thing with Atiku, Tinubu, Kwankwanso they have all rotated around so much that you don't even know who is who. Almost everyone around Tinubu today has been against him at some point before

Reno Bwala Okonkwo, FFK Dele Momodu all the known mouthpiece and pen for hire have been for and against Tinubu/APC at some point

If you are going into politics with the mentality of permanent and unwavering loyalty then you are in for a rude shock.

Lol, I use airtel 1TB data. It costs 100k. Everyone connects to it and it lasts for 8-12 months depending on usage. Madam does an extra 1k sub monthly that she uses at work. Once she comes back and at weekends, she connects to the 1TB.

iamoyindamola:
It's actually possible, I did MTN 100k for 1tb at the beginning of this year we all use it, we are in October ending and I still have about 314gb left
This new naija to survive, buy everything in bulk

Exactly. No be me Tinubu go send go village.

Besides, I no dey do my papa work. If anything happens, I have to fall back at something.

Now, if things are this bad already while I'm still working, imagine how it will be if I lose my job.

This means no matter how difficult, I have to spend carefully and plan for rainy days.

Besides, the so called contributory pension will be useless by the time you're eligible to receive it. If I have my way, I would have stopped it and collected all my money. Let me plan my pension myself.

My mums pension has just been paid since 2013 by the Ogun state government. It's slightly less than 5m.

Imagine what 5m would have done for her in 2013.

BlueRayDick:
This is one of the issues with the contributory scheme despite being better than the previous Pension system pre-2004.

If by 2013 the employee stops contributing to the scheme due to retirement and he or she is due to receive the lump sum immediately after retirement; then there should be interest on the lump sum for as long as the PFA delays in payment.

Like in ur mum's case, 2013 to 2024 is 11 good years of interest that should have accrued on the N5m lump sum. Unfortunately, that is not so. It only means the PFA or whoever warehoused the lump sum for 11 years has been doing all sorts with the money and not giving the retired employee any form of interest is just robbery.

This guy is linking the Hausa name on BRICS new currency to Russian flag waved by protesters in the North during the recent EndBadGovernance protests. He's saying it appears the Northerners are down with Russia/BRICS while Southerners are down the West/America.

I guess the BRICS people didn't do their homework well enough to really know how divided as a people we are before writing Nigeria in Hausa language on their new currency . That move alone can jeopardize whatever gain they hope to achieve with Nigeria partnering them.

Itsrm:
Just imagine.

I bet most of them are even thanking the governor for paying.

Those who understand time value of money will know they've been seriously shortchanged.

GloriousGbola:
it is not an accident

putin has run multiple coups in west africa

the north does not give a fk about democracy and if putin provides them with a path to power via coup they will jump at it
more so when the average northerner is content with a hardscrabble existence as long as his brother is in power

i do not see it as an accident in any way

you can see bashir creaming his pants.


they may as well be one with niger
nigeria is full of lebanese nigerians who likely align with iran and would provide support
we also already have shittes who align with iran
then you have the born to rule mentality civil service entitled to govt employment mentality
and of course you can see the north is chafing at the bit for one nation under sharia


more so when they identify with russia because they are daft enough to think that the same russia that put down the muslim chechens, the same russia that backed the serbs who killed muslims in bosnia, same russia backing the genocide in sudan is on their side.

dull witted vacuous ediats

brics has russia, china and india who deal with muslims on the regular but they are looking at the west

I think it is the other way round. They did it to trigger a response and exacerbate our division, and as a nod to their Northern Nigeria allies. The person who made the decision did his homework fully.

If we follow that logic, we can as well say that Saudi Arabia want to Islamise Nigeria because we have Arabic language on the naira currency.
BRICS did their home work, Hausa language is one of the largest spoken indigenous language in Nigeria/West Africa. There's no cause for alarm. I remember when we did GS in 100L in Unizik, you have students from the SE born in Jos, Abuja, Niger, Lagos failing Igbo language. Dem no fit dey speak their language.

The apex bank said, “The naira notes retained the inscriptions with Ajami since 1973 when the name of the Nigerian currency was changed to naira from pounds.

“The Ajami was inscribed on the country’s currency by the colonialists to aid those without Western education in certain parts of the country, who, back then, constituted a larger part of the populace.

“The Ajami is not a symbol or mark of Islam but an inscription to aid the populace uneducated in Western education in ease of trade.”

Nigeria is a hopeless case sha...rigging elections isn't political genius. We overate fools and surprised the country is the way it is.

Full grown adults legit thought a candidate that was an active player in the Yahoo-Yahoo of his time had anything but utter misery in store for them .

A lot of us would look down on Yahoo boys in our generation making a play for political appointments yet people were speaking English, imagining strategies and tying their personal destinies to the ambition of some ex-Yahoo boy. A lot of us had folks travel abroad in their Tinubu's era, yet none of them touched the crimes of drug peddling even remotely, but someone that was actively involved in that game is who people think has good in store for them.

You'd think they speak so highly of was anything more than good vote buying and result writing.

Below is the explanation on the "Arabic" inscription on the naira notes. It has nothing to do With Saudi Arabia



It is actually foolishness on the part of the people behind the BRICS currency to choose one language in a multi ethnic country like Nigeria that is divided along several tribal/ethnic lines.

From the reactions since yesterday one can see it is counterproductive.Several southerners will kick and their anger is justified considering the history of the country

No na
They should be a standing rule
Not because they see it in surplus it means they should over use it
You have to be strict with it if you budget 6 months and they finish it in 3 months. Let everyone drink garri for the remaining 3 months, trust me they will adapt
