These international trading arms are non-value adding middlemen who sit abroad and earn margin from crude being produced and consumed in Nigeria.

Wow! My neighbor produced yams from her farm, a very bountiful harvest. She's selling her yams. It's not cheap. I want to buy the yams at market rate from her. She refuses to sell to me, but insists I look for a shop owner in the market, let that shop owner come and buy from her, then sell to me.

No... The shop owner is not selling to me at the price he bought; he's selling to me at a premium, in addition to the market value I should have paid if I bought directly from my neighbor. This premium, has nothing to do with Nigeria law or government. No value added, no tax paid, no CSR, nothing!!! Just earn free money from me!!!

Oh... That shop owner turns out to be my neighbor's younger brother. The shop even belongs to my neighbor.


Again, I say WOW!!!

See her

Is this dog still alive? If not... Did she have ascites? (Water in the stomach; I don't know how to explain it). The stomach looks like she's pregnant, but she's not

BUT HOW DID THE FAMILY GET TO MEET MESSI??


ARE THEY RELATED IN ANY WAY?

You could have just read the beautiful write-up above

SEDC and SWDC Loading

Make I go apply to be their Director or CEO.

We won't banter them; we don't kick a man when he's down; we just cook them

Wow... Stockholm syndrome, and image laundering! His identity and location have been given and identified. Tell me why the army ain't going there to finish what they started?

Omo! To think it went from here to 1,900 some months ago

Omo... What if na the gods been give the thieves jazz to take go steal the items? What if na the dibia himself be the thief?

My point? Nothing will still happen; the stolen items are gone!!!

I'm not a Tinubu supporter, but NLC are so unrealistic with their demands! Are they aware that increasing the minimum wage actually means increasing the salaries of everyone employed by the government? Where do they expect the federal government or even state governors to get such funds? Imagine the cleaner earning 30 is now earning 250k; what do you expect a supervisor earning 80k to start earning? 300k? Now, what will a deputy director earn? 500k?750? Director? Perm sec? Where will Naija get such kind of money to pay people that will still expect tips for them to do their jobs? Abeg make NLC go sidon🙄🙄🙄

Deepthoughts:
Na to just the use nose mask continuously be that ooh.

That too can cause death by asphyxiation

Another fear mongering. Everything, including drinking water, can lead to death! Microplastics and nano plastics. Ask them how one can prevent inhaling them, and they'll start stuttering

SporaD8:
It's called "otolaryngologist" she didn't even know the spelling of what she wants.
"Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious” is a figment of her unending imagination - no such word exist.

Oto- Ear
Rhino- Nose
Larynx- Throat (to trachea)

The Otorhinolaryngologist is an ear, nose and throat (ENT) specialist. They can also be called Otolaryngologist (ear and throat; without the nose-"rhino".


Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious... I only typed superc on my phone, and the option to complete it came up. That alone signifies that the word is correct, even thou it might mot have applications in real life settings .

Another crazy word is the pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis
I think that's the longest word in English. I spelt it myself. My phone no get this one inside hin dictionary 🤣🤣🤣

They'll be caught! Greed is a major reason these guys are caught, and these ones have taken their greed to a whole new level! $1.5m? That's over 2 billion naira! They'll be caught, and soon!

No worry, you won't even get any supporters. Congratulations, you get what you wished for

Retire well. Congratulations sir

We did played with the word Excercise Book then as:.
Ede x Ede, ,Remi Ko ni Iya, Segun elere ball, odabo odabo Kayode. Funny.

Till today, I don't know how to spell "exercise". I subconsciously sing this song in my head when spelling E X E R C I S E. This song has saved me countless time.

Another work I can't spell is Hippopotamus. I sing H I P, for tha hip for tha hippopo... P O, P O for tha hippopo, and T A M U S, for tha hippopotamus! HIPPOPOTAMUS!!!

2004 or 2003, I can't remember. I wrote JAMB, on my use of English, I got to spell the correct word. Inside exams hall, I blessed my childhood 🤗🤗🤗

Omo... That 3 loader CD

[quote author=Sapasenator post=130184340][/quote]Oooooh god! Oga will you plant it in the sky? Won't you plant it outside?

Are u in Abuja??
You people just come online to comment nonsense. I bought almost same quantity of tomatoes on Sunday same as that of op for 1500. I almost thought my seller was cheating me till i priced round the market & discovered his own was even cheaper. Tomatoes is very expensive in Abuja right now.

I bought carrot, green peas, green beans and spring onions for 2k on Sunday night. I swear, what I got wouldn't normally exceed ₦300. I couldn't even buy Raddish ooo... Cucumber starts at 300. You know those shrunk small cucumbers that you throw away when they use it to give you jara. Yes, that's what they now sell for ₦300!

MonsterVerse:
stop typing rubbish...

Hope you know everyone has land to farm?

Belike everyone in Nigeria has a free land whenever he wishes to farm he can go and do so..?
You keep exposing your ignorance thinking u are smart or intelligent...

Rubbish

And the lands are secured too ooo... Where you finish planting maize, okra and tomatoes; weed and apply manure/fertilizer. While waiting for the crops to mature, people have already strated harvesting it for you without your consent

Sapasenator:
Most of my countrymen never actually make use of their brains and I say this abscent of malice.

They will rather complain, commit suicide, curse and abuse or pray.

They will never take 1 practical step to solve a real problem.

What if they don't have the space? Or where they have is not secured? Make una dey reason say no be everybody get luck like una naa. Kai!!!

Mom007:
Comments like this are how you know the problems of Nigeria. The lazy youths who have never experienced the joy of planting something and watching it grow and later eating it fresh from the farm/ garden! Always eager to leap to insults to cover up for their laziness and inadequacy.

Plant what you can first and break this ridiculous dependence on rice that we have now cultivated. When we were young, rice was Sunday food and one other day of the week, now people eat rice everyday, a food that doesn't grow well here and dumped farming altogether and expects their economy to thrive.

Madam please just shut up. You don't expect everyone to become a farmer. I have things I plant in my backyard, many did not even germinate because the land does not favour their growth. So tell me how you expect me to plant irish potatoes at my backyard, or cabbage, or even carrots. I bought about 20 sticks of green beans for ₦500! That shouldn't have exceeded ₦100 on a normal day! 5pcs of shombo pepper for ₦200; that was like ₦ 20-50 some 12 months ago! Sooo... How do you expect the poor to feed?

Someone came to look for job at my office. A beautiful young lady. She has a job, but wants some other employment to leave her current employer. Her reason? She has to resume at 7am and close at 10pm, Monday to Saturday! How do you expect such people to farm?

Please be human! Stop talking like an idiot!

An Obidient spotted.

Never happy. Filled with hate and a thousand sorrows.

Your comment is really faulty brother. I am obedient, but I'm very happy with this news. It gave me goosebumps, because I know what Sandhurst means to a military man. Then the First Lady recognises a young girl who might even have her family members in the opposition speaks volume (and I'm impressed).

So calling out a solitary dissenting voice and tagging it as the voice of Obidients with that write-up feels rather faulty. That might even be the voice of a batist!

I'm Obidient, but I support Mr President. What other options do we have if not to wait till the next election? Until then, PBAT is our president; and not every dissenting voice is an Obidient. Not every Igbo man is Obidient, nd and not everyone will be happy with a "good" news.

Izuchukwu70:
Yes , but a 25m naira plot of land in Lekki in 2011 is more than 192 million naira now.

My point is... They should be paying the equivalent value of 25m in 2011.

Oh my... If only Mr Patrick Arueze had sued for a compensation in Dollars. Ahhh...

In 2011, ₦25m was about $160,000. Today, that money is worth about ₦192m.

But why was the case allowed to linger for 13 years?
It is safe to say that justice delayed is justice denied.

In 2015, 25m would have bought 5 units of appartments in NAF Valley Estate. Today, 100m may not be able to buy just 1 unit! This man has lost the value of his investment in this suit.

Obviously AUDIO! Grey abi White propaganda... This is greyP. Ko le work!

I watched to the end, where one or the soldiers was gunned down. You can't make these stuffs up

efemena5050:
keep them poor for them to always be loyal to u thts the mindset of the bald head man ....

He's just plain foolish. You think Tinubu is short of loyal followership? Man is a King in making men! Osinbajo, Gbajabiamila, Cardoso, Egbetokun, Lai, etc are all Tinubu boys. He built men who so wealthy, yet are still very loyal. But this idiot thinks people won't be loyal when he gifts them houses and cars? Most people will become even more loyal!

Things greed can do!

This one is not even greed; Emefiele is a stingy beast! What would it cost him to just settle your boy? Someone you could bless with just a small house in Abuja, and he'll never forget you? Stingy morafocka

UselessBuharist:
Karma go visit that dispatch rider, you can’t say he didn’t reward you handsomely

If he actually did, the guy would have disappeared. He would have relocated with his family when Emefiele was arrested; or even decline knowledge when he was questioned.


I can tell you for free, gifts blind the eyes of people. They will overlook your iniquities and deny their existence. Which ever comes first

Snitch...

But Emefiele did wrong for not rewarding him! If he had given him tips or rewards (which he could do so well), this guy would have disappeared!

Imagine Emefiele gave the guy a bonus in form of a house, or when the guy brought cash, Emefiele said "how much is there?". The guy replies "850k sir". Then Emefiele says take 5k there, buy a car for your wife. Or he says "where do you live?". And the guy replies "Surulere". Emefiele says I have a house in Ikoyi, here's the Title Deed, I dash you. In this life and the next, the guy will worship Emefiele, and never snitch on him.


But no, Emefiele is the typical thief. Eat alone, die alone!


Tip that house help, security man, cleaner, office clerk, etc. You would be shocked at the amount of Valuable information the have to offer you (for free). Some of these info can even save your life!!!

Naija, a country where life is cheap and anything goes.

Just this afternoon, I told my wife that Jnr Pope did not die of drowning, he died of ignorance. Ignorance of Nigerians! What was he taken to the mortuary for in the first place? Who certified him dead? What CPR was done? For how long? By who? Then from mortuary to river goddess, then to the hospital! Damnnnnn... An avoidable death.

And then one baskard said he survived because he offered fanta and 10k to the river goddess? Such a cheap, gluttonous and worthless goddess who would kill several people because she was not given fanta of #400.
