Africans are so useless, I'll need to ask God to show me the angel that choose Nigeria as country of birth.

Hope the video won't show you selecting Nigeria as destination by yourself lol

Simple procedure botched by doctors who probably sorted their way through medical school. They were transfusing blood they hadn't pre-tested and confirmed to match a patient they were probably going to charge millions? God save us from licensed quacks.

This man may be one of the few sane people in the world. This is not a mad man but a man of conviction, just like John the Baptist who some people would also have termed mad.

JASONjnr:
There should be protest....

But let all of us return to our respective states to protest and call our state governors to order....


The hardship is across the nation and not in cities like Abuja and Lagos alone.....

Nonsense. This is one Nigeria - or don't you believe in one Nigeria anymore?

malali:
Why cant Dangote buy from the shadow fleets ? I am glad you acknowledge that they exist. Why must he get the crude oil used to feed 300 million Nigerian citizens ?

Because he's not a sovereign nation state.

malali:
You make good points. I also agree with you that Nigerian government and NNPC has failed us. I however strongly think Dangote is in it for his profits. We have clear antecedents in the cement manufacturing. Nigerians do not benefit in anyway from having the largest cement manufacturer despite all the free raw materials and concessions, where he would have had to pay for if he was located in another country.
I do not know if you are ready to be objective or you are emotionally blinded due to the sufferings in Nigeria. Cement prices should be cheapest in Nigeria in the whole world.
But guess who pockets all the profit to the detriment of Nigerians. People like you are now advocating we should hand over the oil/gas sector to him.

I agree to an extent - that cement prices can and probably should be lower, but also recognize there are other competent players in the cement market that can lower their prices and take market share from Dangote if it's profitable to do so. The fact they're not doing so suggests he might be selling at a reasonable market rate. Or that there's anticompetitive collusion in the market-which a responsible federal government should investigate and put an end to.

I'm guessing you're feigning ignorance of the dark fleets that sell Venezuelan crude throughout the world? Tell me the last time you heard of one of these dark fleets being seized by the US? Or you heard of India being sanctioned by the US for buying cheap Russian crude? Just stop defending the indefensible it makes a mockery of your education and intellect.

malali:
Venezuela is under the worst Oil sanctions in the world. Go and read. They cannot sell their Oil.

Ad hominem attacks, the refuge of the mentally handicapped. And someone was saying this one was an intelligent human being. Sad to observe.

Flamemignon1:
Did you even know that Trump was the first president ever in American history to appoint an openly gay man to his cabinet not even Biden did that so either you turn left or right, the LGBTQ community has support from all angles, the right just don't just support the TQ+



I agree with everything else

Hope you realize Biden's Secretary of Transportation, Pete Buttigieg is opening gay and married to a fellow man?

DaddyCoool:
If you only knew. That's exactly what Africans do - fly to SA then pay coyotes who smuggle them into US. It's not dangerous as you think. They want them to keep comming so they treat them well - even local SA towns aid it because they benefit from it

I knew East Africans did that but had no idea West Africans had caught on. It's still expensive.

I really don't understand how it is easy for Western media to brainwash Africans. Can someone tell me how Africans benefit from illegal immigration to the US? Are you going to fly to South America then trek up north to the US? And you think crossing the desert to Libya is hard? Legal immigration is the only way Africans get a chance to enter the US. Illegal immigration benefits South Americans but NOT Africans unless they're willing to take the life threatening risks involved. In this case what might be good for South Americans is definitely not good for Nigerians.

I can't believe some people actually believe subsidy is gone after all the evidence the government is even paying more nairas for subsidy at the moment. I mean the landing cost of PMS alone should be an indicator!

I'm quite aware he's affiliated with the government, which makes me feel it's a sort of family dispute. But let's not forget there's a cabal in the shadows of the government imposing their will regardless of the wishes of the principal political leaders. The civil service outlives every administration and they know their ways around malicious compliance with directives.

Kobojunkie:
Who do you choose when Dangote is himself in the same boat as the same FG Government then? 🤔

Who to u between Dangote and the federal government? What a hard choice but I'll go with Dangote everyday and twice on Sunday over the incompetent lying federal creatures

I can relate with the ..
What da FAQ was that? This wasn't an impromptu speech but a prepared, videotaped PR video. And they couldn't tape it a few times until his delivery was acceptable? And this was produced by the Governor's media team? What da fuq!
And some people are here defending mediocrity. Oh my goodness
I mean I have effed up some live presentations before, so I can relate. But this was a videotaped presentation they had all the time to get it right and still published this whatever. What da fuq man

This is a great reminder that small minds exist in every nation and sometimes do rise to the top. Me I have stopped patronizing SA businesses whenever I can. For now SA airlines will never receive a kobo from my family, neither will ShopRite. The only SA business receiving any money from me at the moment is MTN and I will review that soon.
This Gayton should keep going until he becomes a Gaytin. Acting as if the foreign artists residing in SA do not contribute to the SA economy. If I have the influence it will be to simply cease diplomatic relations with these xenophobe being fed by whitey.

How's turning over private profit to the government going to keep the politicians from stealing and embezzling the money but rather put it into infrastructural growth? How about the banks be required to loan out a certain percentage of the windfall profits to small businesses and farmers, with confiscatory tax paid to the government if they fail to provide those loans? The poor infrastructure is not due to lack of money but rather due to mismanagement and corruption. Are these the elders guiding this country to great heights? These people? 3 share the money politihiefcians? O ti lo

Let me even add they should go collect loans like Nigeria. Everyone is borrowing 😁

These Ipobic students need to shelf this nzogbu nzogbu noise making protest and adjust with us. Things are improving gradually but it's going to take time. Asiwaju is working hard. They should follow us manage the electricity like that - even the so-called developed countries ration electricity. As for tuition, the great jagaban has made tuition loans available. We don't have time for this nzogbu nzogbu ipobic protests.

Ishilove:
This is not done anywhere in the world

Actually you're wrong, it's done that way all over the US. Oil in your land belongs to you. Same way in Europe.

Iamzik:
It means a lot to the collective human race.
Life is not about you alone.

They are targeting children even before they reach a mature age to make their own decisions and that's what makes this evil

You got it. Their target are the children. Gradually convince the children that perversion is normal and it's a just a matter of time before LGBTQ+ pride parades start happening in Nigeria and other African countries.

Not a desperate act? This is beyond desperate. And what are the repayment terms? Hope this is not another borrow $2 billion and repay with crude worth $10 billion? What is wrong with these people?

Remman:
Our oil is heavily controlled by the foreigners. First, they told us that we cannot refine our oil and made sure that our refineries doesn't work but we can only import the one refined outside. Now, God has helped us and we can now refine our own oil through Dangote refinery, but to my greatest surprise, Dangote cannot refine Nigeria's crude oil, instead is forced to buy from the US if he wishes to refine oil. May God punish the enemies of the black race and all enemies of Nigeria!

I almost said amen. Don't forget na fellow Nigerians mount this table you dey shake. Prosperous Nigerians EFCC has refused to touch.

Franzinni:
bros ... No be say we no sabi road, but na conscience dey talk me down. But I don't dey type quit notice for conscience like this.

Keep that conscience alive and well bro, coz without it a man is a walking dead

Look at the miserable looking fellow. I guess you're what you do applies to this unfortunate soul that has been deceived.

What a tragedy to befall this hard-working young woman. Terrible and heartbreaking

Nigerians, the only problem with Nigeria.

She was so afraid of her husband's wrath that she begged her father to take her back to that very same abusive husband for more abuse. Instead of staying at her father's house that she had already arrived in peace. And some people think the husband is the one with the problem. Na wa o.

Blazetrailer:
Your first statement clearly shows your level of "being informed". There is just no point debating or discussing with you further if you need proof that subsidy is still being paid for imported petrol with landing cost of nearly N1300, even with both World Bank and IMF pointing it out recently that Niheria is paying subsidy heavily

Keep your level of denial, bury your head in the sand like an ostrich and pretend there is "no more subsidy"

On the exchange rates, no point debating with you. You don't know anything, with what you have stated below. If you didn't know that it was not floated but devalued to attract foreing investments according to current Minister of Finance,(which is not coming anyways), no point debating it with you.

Rent seeking will continue in an economy full of corruption and ineptitude whether you float or you don't float. That's the lie they told you.

Don't mind that fellow, maybe they need to increase his lithium dosage for him to boldly question whether subsidy is still going on, despite the myriad indicators to that fact. He will also ask for proof that water is wet.

Seize and auction the filling stations of these economic saboteurs as well. And arrest the IPMAN members involved in these treasonable acts.
