Not difficult. Go to your nearest INEC office, tell them you lost your card, they will ask you to fill a replacement form, and they’ll issue you a new PVC (free).

If they ask for police report as a requirement, just go to the nearest police station and get one.

All the best.
OK. Thanks very much!

Anybody of voting age in Nigeria who doesn’t register to vote, and doesn’t vote in the 2027 election, is a disgrace! Na me talk am.

Edit: I don't care who you vote for. Get off your f***g house on election day and vote. Democracy doesn't implement itself.
Voting doesn't solve the problem. Revolution and continuous protests will do something.

Over 90% of Nigerians don't have up to 500k in account. There is a reason why the world bank says we are the poverty capital of the world.
But since independence till date, our politicians have stolen over 800 billion dollars and stashed in banks abroad. This evil class, the highest paid in the world, still squeeze every kobo they can out of the treasury.

When Abuja national stadium was built, it cost Nigeria over 3 times what it cost Arsenal to build the Emirates stadium. Instances like these liter the landscape. Imagine a coastal road costing 15 trillion Naira. Imagine airport resurfacing of Lagos and Abuja airports costing far more than what California paid for same.

Emiefele is allegedly returning over 4 trillion naira to the national treasury. One man! 4 trillion naira! Money stolen under an administration that was going all over the world begging for loans and grants. The same person, Emiefele, built close to 1000 duplexes in Koroduma, Abuja.

A former COAS, has entire blocks of high end real estate in Dubai. All the houses in the street belong to him. And yet, till date, our soldiers run from battle because they lack ammunition.

Is the black man cursed?
In Benue state, the Chinese have set up a cassava processing facility. It cost them 30 million dollars to do so. Trucks from far and wide bring cassava there. The Chinese pay well so you see trucks lined up for days waiting to offload. The Chinese have refused to allow any Nigerian work in the inventory and finance department. The last time they did so, one of the staff, who didn't even go to school, moved over 300 million naira. This 30 million dollars the Chinese used to build that factory is lesser than the amount of money ALL governors of Benue state may have stolen individually since 1999.

Is it lithium factories? The Chinese are building them in Nasarawa. Foreign Investors we call them. But take a look if the EFCC permits and you will see how much past governors of that state stole. Enough money for over 10 lithium factories.

Our politicians go around claiming to look for investors meanwhile they loot the treasury blind. Tell me. The thousands of dollars Wike, Tinubu and Atiku used to influence delegates came from where? A particular candidate paid each delegate from each local government over 20,000 dollars! Where did that money come from? His earnings? We know he never set up any industries. His son wears a 400 million naira wrist watch. What job does that boy have?

How can a land so blessed be so cursed? Led by men so evil! If the white man was looting his treasury like our elite do, will they be able to build a country where our elite always run to? What is wrong with us?
The country is gone

I agree, but I must add: If someone can’t do the easiest one which is to come out and vote, how can they do the more difficult one, which is protest and hold them accountable?

Protest means, “I didn’t vote for this” or “I voted for this but I got something else”. So what is a non-voter protesting?

The definition of protest is not what you wrote up there. One should be able to protest, irrespective of who you voted for. Protest should be done if the government is not doing well, even if you are the one who campaigned for them before they got there. By the way, none of these people with popularity are going there to do anything good. If you like vote Atiku, Obi, Kwankwaso, bring back Tinubu for second term, etc. They are all the same. Nobody is gonna do anything better. Also no matter who you voted, rigging will supersede. The highest vote buyer will win.

What kind of analysis is this.

So saving money in any fin tech platform now translate to how rich someone income is?

I have use Cowriwise, Kuda, and Fairmoney, platfom to save millions. I also have Piggyvest account too, but ever since I signed up, I have never save 1N into because I don't like their way of service.


Not everybody that have money make use piggyvest, cowriwise, or fairmoney to save please.
So which one do you use to save money that is better and what is their interest rate ?

We both agree that protest should happen irrespective of who you voted for, that point is not necessary. Don’t try to deviate and bring in what was never inferred.

The point here is that everyone should vote else they give up their right to participate in democracy which includes protests.

To your point of whether it will be rigged or not, you’re either a covet Tinubu supporter trying to discourage people from voting, or you’re very ignorant about what democracy means.

Everything you just wrote shows that nigeria does not have citizens.
Citizenship is fake.

Majority of the people in true sense, find it hard to believe in nigeria cos of the way everone behaves.

People seem to be fed up.

That is why some people call nigeria an experiment.

The situation compounded over years and blaming the current administration of His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) would be baseless.

With the current direction our great country is moving towards. CONTINUITY is all that is required to affirm and guarantee growth.

Why I am proposing that the senate grant a 16 year term to His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR)

Studying models of country have made tremendous progress in short period of time, we cannot deny the the fact that the had consistent or fixed administration that shared common goals.

Everything you just wrote up here is complete balderdash. If we tell you about the rot in the system, you will bring up a shallow thought to counter it. You even defined protest as something one is not entitled to because one did not vote. Lol. That's the funniest definition of protest I've ever heard.

Pls everyone should go and vote o grin Let's go and givedemwotowoto on the election day. Case closed. Let's see what will happen to our votes, or better still, let's see what the one voted or 'selected' will do when in power grin

Voting is irrelevant if the people do not want to defend their votes and the person they voted for is too naive to protect the mandate.

One thing about progressive countries we migrate to today is that the citizens are willing to protest and die for the benefits of
the society at large. When they struggle to fruition, we start enquiring about the visa procedure to migrate there to constitute nuisance.

I do not understand these headlines fixated on earnings. If you choose not to pursue anything meaningful to improve your situation, but instead remain on social media hurling insults at the government, you will remain exactly where you are. You have been doing so all along, and I assure you, even under the next administration, you will still be doing the same.

No government distributes wealth for free, income must be earned.
The word 'government' does not even appear in the entire article, much less insulting it so it's amazing to read your reaction.

A company did a survey and published the report but what you see is "hurling insults" at government.

An absolutely apolitical post but you somehow amazingly managed to drag politics into it.

I would advise you take fairmoney or cowry wise.

Fairmony interest is higher than cowrywise, but cowrywise has many opstions in saving.

My concerns are that those companies might be too risky to put reasonable amount. I saw your message just as I got off the phone making inquires from a company called renmoney, they offered 22% for 1 year, but wount someone have high BP where you are monitoring the place not to foldup and run with your money?
Anyway i just did 16% with a bank for 90days, less interest and 10% withholding tax calculated, got 3.8m or roughly 1.3/month with peace of mind. Anyway renmoney said their maximum in a "safebox" is 25,but you can do multiples, maybe one will take the risk as 22% is too attractive.

I usually research the bank backing the business. It is usually microfinance banks. Also check the NDIC listings to note the said microfinance is acknowledged by NDIC and by extension CBN. Everything else, I believe from there, would amount to the same risk as using any other average commercial banks.

Besides that, at other times other regulated stock investment apps actually did make reference to some of the product those banks or "company" had; their commercial papers.
