₦airaland Forum

Jibrin Barau elected as the Deputy Senate President.

Unopposed.

Indeed, power is transient.

Did anyone who watched the voting process observed that the walking steps of the fellow that was former Senate President has changed?

Dis life no balance true true.

Nightwolf1:
You didn't name the investors you were yapping about but you want to know the Investors' class I belong to.

Are you normal upstairs?🤡

Case closed.

Nightwolf1:
I like am. Na the Investors I wan see their names. Liars and Propagandists plenty for this country. Abi you like to live in a deceitful world?

Some of us are investors. So we just they watch how the economy they roll before we build confidence in the system otherwise them go use lie deceive you and your money go just waste like that.

Name the class of investors you belong to so that we can start from there.

Same Bloomberg that predicted victory for a particular candidate

Nothing is as good as God using the mouth of your enemy to sing your praises.

yahoodetector:
Igbo man will never put his money into nonsense that he can never see.

But these sofistikated people from the west that claim to be the most educated will jump at anything to get rich and they end up getting poorer like Pa Ayoola.

Later when his mate in the south east puts his money into something viable and it reaps fruit for his children after he is gone, they will say it is money rituals.

Buffons who only know how to snatch ballot box.

Eskis sir,

IGBO MEN PUT MONEY FOR MMM no be small.

The PH guy own na hin worse pas.

The way you people show your stupidity on this forum is phenomenal.

Jessyrank:
SEC should be among the instructions to hold liable. It is crypto currency that is real they would be fighting. The firm's that registered with them are duping people up and down yet they are silent on it.

Nigeria govt institutions, leave crypto biz alone because it's bigger than your full economy combined.

The same crypto that the US GOVT is making plans to start regulating like GAMBLING or another one? As in, apply the same regulation to that of gambling.

If you are not aware of what I said please do not quote me.

emmyN:
From what I read here, they didn't set out as a scam company, so the government keying in when they still operated in their legit ways shouldn't be faulted. The company was divested and they started offering customers bogus interest rate which they couldn't keep up with and thus resorted to perpetrating a ponzi to stay afloat.

Eskis sir.
What guy men cannot do does not exist.
All the initial investment, inviting the governor for photo op na packaging.
Truth is, the moment that claims to be in agriculture comes up with an investment plan, japa if you like yourself.

OGHENAOGIE:
obaseki endorsement Made pple buy in... I think govt should investigate these guys to send a signal that pple can't Wake up and play pple intelligence...

Totally agree with you that Obaseki' s endorsement made people buy in.
But you should know that most governors are lazy and the moment someone or a group of persons presents an idea on their table, pronto, they believe in it because they themselves have nothing to showcase as an achievement. Especially, the commissioning of that farm.

Most importantly, these guys are smart Alec's who have a goal and a target. Remember, they invested too. Their own investment is the trap that people fell into.

Cry...ptoo is legitimate bro, just do your due diligence and research and you can make a good living. Go to dex...tols or dex...screner and look for new meme...Coin.s about to pump make sure they are not a honey..pot or a rug..pulls(scams) sell quickly when pumping and buy another at the dip, rinse and repeat and serious money are being made on meme...Coins not the established coi..ns

The same crypto that the US GOVT is contemplating regulating the way GAMBLING is being regulated or another crypto?

sterlingD:
Treasury Bills, Mutual funds (especially Money market funds,fixed income funds) FGN Savings bonds, FGN SUKUK Bonds, Shares /stocks on the Nigeria Stock Exchange are places to invest in short term and long term in Nigeria with long patience and diligence which one will get good returns on investment.

Nigerians will not invest in these ones you listed because:

1. The level of financial literacy is low.
2.The ROI is not eye popping.
3.They are very greedy even when the signal is clear. Eg. MMM
4. The like moving like an herd especially where outrageous ROI is mentioned.
5. They are never ready to learn.

obyno82:
Bros shut up. I said dictates. Who provides direction for monetary policy? If the president says he wants to unify the exchange rate is that not providing direction for monetary policy? When the naira was going down and there was pressure on CBN to devalue, what was Buhari's response then? I remember clearly he said he would not devalue the naira.

I will heed your advice to shut up.

But, find time to engage people that are more knowledgeable than you. Perhaps and just maybe..........

President dictates the monetary policy?
President provides the direction for monetrary policy?

The last thing you forgot to add is that the president gives the fiscal direction too.

I will shut up sir.

obyno82:
But it is the president that dictate the monetary policy direction. The CBN Governor implements them so how is it Meffy's fault?

With all due respect sir, read what you posted and simply say sorry.

President dictates monetary policy decision? Where? How? When did that start in Nigeria? With what cognate experience? With what knowledge?

Eskis sir,

Always weigh your comment very well lest you sound stupid and idiotic.

Orishirishi full Nairaland no be small.

It is like saying the NFF President determines what pattern to play during a match and the coach just implement.

Please withdraw this comment or say it was an error.

jahsharon:
Kingsley Moghalu was there when Diezani and Goatluck were looting the CBN. The other useless Almjari Sanusi Lamido Sanusi was shouting and screaming, but Moghalu kept quiet because as Goatlch, Diezani and the gang of 40 thieves were looting, Moghalu too was taking his share. So when the Almajri Sanusi Lamido Sanusi was talking too much it was Moghalu and the other looters in CBN that colluded with Goatluck to humiliate Sanusi Lamido Sanusi who actually deserved to be disgraced because the idiot is a religious and ethnic jingoist.

Kingsley Moghalu is a useless thief

I am not in a better position to defend Moghalu. All I know is that he has something upstairs.
You should also know that Deputies are just mere extra tyres.

onuman:
When will you stop calling everyone of your opponents stupid? You don't understand that you are the stupid one as you call everyone stupid.
You are a typical of Tinubu urchinn - belief that argument is won with insulting the opponent.

Are you the idiot using another moniker?

Or.are you the spokesperson for the National Association of Nigerian Idiots?

Or have you just bought what the idiot was selling?

onuman:
A village wag wouldn't know the topic of a discussion he joins. It's the same manner you did not know what Abokifx is and what it operates like before you started to chime into the discourse with your insulting epithet.

Oga,
Answer the questions.and disappoint me.
Is that too difficult to do?

Abagworo:
He is only fighting him for being Igbo nothing more nothing less

If this is an attempt to advertise your stupidity, I doubt if anyone will want to buy tonight.

Look for a new story tommorow morning.

Best of luck.

onuman:
No sense blackmail - typical of Tinubu urchinss. Do you even know what Abokifx is like or how it operates? You don't know.

Thank you sir.

But, I am disappointed you could not provide answer to any of my questions even before insulting me.

Not to worry. I know people like you.
Village champions.

AngelicBeing:
You mean Moghalu, the former Deputy Governor of CBN

Exactly my brother. Thanks.

i.will.vote that guy over my father as the president of Nigeria.

Seun:
We can do better than SLS. Don't forget why Jonathan removed SLS. He's an insubordinate ,religious fundamentalist hypocrite who can't stop running his mouth due to a desperate need for attention. And he left economics for traditional leadership for several years. I vote no. Bismark Rewane is a better choice. He is not only a good analyst but a good teacher who can explain to politicians how the economy works so they don't make stupid decisions like Buhari made for 8 years.

Bismark was part of an economic advisory team alongside Sarah Alade, the LBS professor amongst others. What was their impact? Absolutely nothing.

Give me the Igbo former Deputy Governor of the CBN all day long.
I cant remember the name now. He contested the presidency 2019

onuman:
There's this Abokifx Naira currency trading website based in London which bastardized the Naira during the Buhari administration. Buhari government had connection with Britain. Why didn't Nigeria 🇳🇬 government interact with Britain to axe Abokifx?

Emefiele the scapegoat for Tinubu who allied with Buhari for 8 years and made Nigeria become the POVERTY CAPITAL of the world.

I have learnt something new from you today.
So, it is possible for a currency trading website to bastardize the currency of a country?
So, Aboki FX is the only currency website?
So, the Naira regained it's value when ABOKI FX website was clamped upon?

This is a public forum sir.
Some gists are better suited for the palmwine bar.

VeeVeeMyLuv:
If the CBN guy was from the west, they wouldn't have been attacking him like this

Who are the "they"?

The whole of the country that suffered the aftermath of the currency change or the imaginary they in your dream?

EFCC Boss is next.

House cleaning has started.

Good riddance to bad rubbish.

The most notorious, stupid Governor ever.

This day should stop pretending. We all know whose interest they are serving.

Truth is, wailing for four years is not going to be an enviable job.

On top wike na hin una waste all these space?

1. Are you the only one sent back?

2. Is it not shameful as a married woman to be accused of indecent dressing?

3. Do you think everywhere is Nigerian idol center?

4. What example are you laying for people looking up to you?

Before you appoint yourself as spokesperson, answer the questions rightly.

Espelbengz:
No BENUE indigene think it's necessary to own a private university? In the near future hope we won't be shouting of marginalization! Hmmmm

Elder David Mark comes to mind.

jackmrandy:
i understand that people can be mad when it comes to money. but she should not have coolected any money from the sales money. thats not good. whats bad is bad. we should stop painting bad things to be good.

I never said or implied that what she did was right. So, the issue of painting what is bad as good should not arise.
In the write up I said people begged madam. Why were they begging her? They were begging her because everyone is of the opinion that what the girl did was totally wrong.
Please learn not to make unecessary inference from what people write.
Thank you.
You are welcome.

One thing people do not know is that most medium scale business owners find it extremely difficult to pay salary. Whether the business makes sufficient profit in the month or not. The moment it is salary time, that is when they realize that the are the devil's " next of kin".

A few days ago, a woman wiith a shop being manned by a sales girl sacked the innocent girl. Wetin happen you might be tempted to ask.
The innocent girl has a monthly esusu that she pays with her monthly salary. Esusu man came on June 7. Girl took her salary from sales she made for the contribution. Madam owner came and said the girl should not have taken out of her sales because June 7 is not too late and that " some of her friends pay their workers on 15th or 16th of the month".
Can you imagine?
People beg madam employer, she said NO.

Things dey happen and most likely, employees in this type of employment will suffer more in the nearest future.

Lannister360:
Someone is earning 45k/month in this expensive economy and you are asking him to get a lawyer, na paper he go take pay the lawyer ni ?, your brain de work at all ?

They are even saying the lawyer will get paid after winning the case.

Industrial court for that matter.

brain54:
How practical…

Is it to walk into any lawyer’s office and tell him.
“ I am being treated unfairly in my place of work. I want to take my boss to court. Because he has faulted labor law. So when we win the case in court you get paid from the compensation I will get paid”

How does it sound in your ear?

Probably a lawyer that himself is struggling to “survive “ and has his own issues he hasn’t finished sorting.

How many lawyers will take up such a case up in Nigeria? You will lucky if you aren’t thrown out. Who would bear the cost of the case- legal fees, logistics like transportation to court etc.?

Case that can be adjourned like forever…

I am not saying people do not take up such cases once in a while… but it’s quite rare and depends on maybe being in the right place at the right time. Pro bono cases etc which happens less than maybe 5% of the time.

The OP needs a practical solution to his problem Abeg.

Instead of adding another stress of legal matter on top the pile of mess he already faces.

OP has told you his side of the story… the boss hasn’t told you his side yet. So what is the guarantee he will win in court. If he doesn’t win what will happen? What happens to the lawyers pay?

45k salary… remove monthly transportation of about 15k or thereabouts from that amount- with a wife and kid(s) to feed apart from house rent and other expenses and you will realize what OP is going through.

Put yourself in his shoes Then you will realize how impractical your advice about labor laws and lawyer talk sounds.

What he needs is a better job. And how he is going to schedule his time to search for a better one… or learn skills that will benefit him, or probably add a side hustle to his job. Seeing that he spends most of his time on is current job.(7: 30am -10pm or so)

That’s more practical than going on a wild goose chase about labor laws… I can understand this kind of talk from @kobojunkie- because he is not in Nigeria and maybe has lost touch of the situation- or is using “American eye” to view the situation. But not from you.

Common man… this is Nigeria. Be practical!

Do not always forget that you are on a platform dominated by kids pretending to be adults.
You have saved me the stress of having to type much.
If you have been on Nairaland for sometime now, you will discover that the favorite comments on issues like this is " go to court" or " sue the bastard" as they used to say.
Is it not funny to you when someone is telling the guy to go to Industrial court?
Is is not funny to you that someone is saying the lawyer will go to court knowing he will get paid after the have gotten favorable judgement?

I can boldly say it that an average Nigerian has never had the caused to interact with a lawyer before not to talk if dreaming how the judiciary works.

Stones, just read comments, laugh and move on.
