Politics / Re: Nigeria To Attract $20bn Investment From UK, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, China by RapportNaija(m): 10:13am On Feb 06
Attract whatever you like...

The common man just want to live and survive.

So please when you say ATTRACT, it should improve the value of naira, reduce inflation, increase employment rate, reduce insecurity, improve infrastructure, improve healthcare and education, and more.

Anything less than that, you will have failed - just like your predecessor, Chief Failure Buhari.

Great... More electric power supply for the people down South!

In fact, the whole North can destroy all their power lines to free up for electricity for Southerners.

Family / Re: Advise, My Father Sold His House And Moved To The Village Now He Wants To Leave by RapportNaija(m): 3:34pm On Jan 26
What your cousins will say...what this that will say...

At your big age, ma?

What people will say is what's spurring you to take unreasonable actions? I'm ashamed on your behalf.

And for your inconsiderate dad, now's the time to act tough too - since it's your money you're spending.

Follow one advice I saw on the first page, buy a land and build 3-bed bungalow in your dad's choice of state/area.

That's better, you keep the documents too... So no need to be paying yearly rent.
Food / Re: How Are You Coping With The Rising Cost Of Food Commodities? by RapportNaija(m): 4:29pm On Jan 23
To answer your question, I'll use this popular Nigerian phrase, "Na God"

Because if not God, how are we truly surviving?

I have a family of 4 (1 toddler included).

We cook proper soup twice a week (3-5k each when managing funds)

Our first child does heavy snacking and her most preferred food is Golden Morn, Coco Pops, or Oat and milk.

Our toddler is still on baby formula milk.

I consume alcohol too (no shame, sorry not sorry - at least 2 bottles of beer daily)

We buy half bag of rice every 2-3 months, and then split the rest of my food budget on spaghetti, noodles, Garri, semo, Amala, groundnut oil, palm oil, etc.

All of this on which income? My woman earns less than 30k/month as a primary school teacher.

I freelance (earn in $$$s)...but income is nearly always inconsistent.

In the past 8 months, things have become tougher. No thanks to the rise of Artificial Intelligence (that's stolen most clients) and harsh APC Naija economy.

All income now goes to feeding and paying regular bills like TV, internet, cooking gas, power supply, water, cleaning, etc.

We can barely afford new clothes or replace our old/damaged gadgets.

It's time to leave this country!

In 2024, the capital of Nigeria lacks equipments to tackle insecurity?

If Abuja lacks, what's the faith of the rest of Nigeria then?

What did Buhari do for 8 years?

Shame, APC - shame!

Business / Re: 90% Of 2023 Diaspora Remittances Didn’t Get To Nigeria — Oyedele by RapportNaija(m): 11:56pm On Jan 18
FreeStuffsNG:
"We have spoken to loads of Nigerians almost everywhere, in the US, UK, etc. They told us how they send remittance. They use Apps, and we have tried some of those Apps, they use parallel market rates. So, you take $1,000 in New York, and tap on your phone that you are sending $1,000 to someone, a Fintech, they pay the Naira equivalent in Nigeria without bringing the dollars, unless of course if the source of the money is illicit.”

If the forex doesn't land in Nigeria then it's wrong of World Bank to classify such funds as diaspora remittances. To qualify as diaspora remittances then the fund must leave the foreign country and land in our own financial system. What predominates does not quantify as remittance because the foreign currencies remain in the overseas account of the operators of those apps who mostly open and operate their bank accounts from illicit funds havens like the British Virgin Islands, Bahamas, Ireland, Mauritius etc. So while you send $1000 from US, you get paid in naira here but your $1000 lands in a bank account in British Virgin Islands! That's not a diaspora remittance in Nigeria!

Those app platforms are the real wall blocking the remaining 90% of the total diaspora funds from getting into our banking system. If our financial regulatory control laws don't reach those fintechs, our tax laws should. FG must go after them and their collaborators here in Nigeria.
May God bless Nigeria for ever! Check my signature for free stuffs!

TBH, most of those funds aren't illicit - because these apps do due diligence and also implement CBN's KYC policy (I know because I use many of them).

Also, the funds don't go to those illegal money laundering havens like Bahamas, etc... the funds doesn't leave the country where it was sent.

E.G. When you register on these apps, they open US, UK, EUR bank accounts in your name (partnering with some banks in those countries).

So when someone sends you money, they just move the funds from one account to theirs in the same bank - and then pay you in Naira in Nigeria.

So whether this act violates CBN's policies, I don't know. But this apps are important for many Nigerians...and it's not just to receive funds, when you want to pay in foreign currencies too, they open virtual debit cards in your name for you to use, and they handle maintenance, and all.

So they're important in Nigeria's economy because money still flows through them.

Science/Technology / Re: Hassan & Hussaini Muhammad Nawad Design Cooking Stove That Uses Water, Petrol by RapportNaija(m): 10:31am On Sep 23, 2023
Kudos to their creativity...

But every invention/innovation should makes lives easier & cheaper...

Petrol is set to soar higher...far more expensive than other alternative cooking processes. Plus petrol is highly inflammable which questions the safety of their invention if used in a large or commercial scale.

They should set their eyes on solving problems, not adding more!

Career / Re: Injustice At Workplace; Should I Resign Or Hang On? by RapportNaija(m): 6:30pm On Jul 20, 2023
Leave. But before you do, ensure you have enough saved up funds enough to last you 6 months plus.

And for the blogs and FB group, they're great potential to make you as much as 300k/month if you can do the work...

But pending the time you can do that, maybe seek other job opportunities as well - or try other physical small businesses you can start (like business center - web building, photocopy, printing, exam registrations, motor registration, POS, etc) while you work on your blogs. You can even dabble into international freelancing with your web development and consulting experience.

Don't wait until they sack you themselves - it happened to me!

Good luck!
Music/Radio / Re: Unpopular Opinion: Don Jazzy Is Not Managing His Artistes Well. by RapportNaija(m): 6:05pm On Jun 13, 2023
It's actually the opposite!

Mavins is a powerhouse and they have internal data analytics that directs how their music should go...

So as someone already pointed out, they're making music to sell and make money - none of that good lyrics yap yap.

All of the artists on their label are doing well!

You people have already sent the boy to early depression... I'm sure the hate he has for you two will be more than the entire ocean in this plant earth.

If at 21, he's always indoors with no friends, he definitely would be scarred forever - that's if he doesn't muster the courage to attempt suicide.

Congratulations in turning a human being into a robot that you want to just do anything you want simply because you are the "parent."

Good luck to you all!

Family / Re: Marriage: My Mother Inlaw Calls My Wife Everyday Is It Proper? by RapportNaija(m): 3:15pm On Nov 08, 2022
What kind of man are you?

Did her family sell your wife to you? Are you now her slave master?

Should you not be even worried if your MIL doesn't call your wife to keep her in check? Except you have evidence that they're plotting against you, there's no big deal!

Or maybe you hate your MIL? Because on these calls, even you should say "let me greet your mom too"!

Be happy and enjoy marriage. You cant live life alone after marriage -- you'll forever need the support of your in-laws, so never attempt to destroy that bridge.

Good luck!

If you're reading this...

You have a problem sir!

And you're that problem!

You even went to do DNA for your son, and still want to redo it again?

In your story, what has your wife done to you to warrant this level of untrust?

Your stepbro, whom you should be calling to order, you have not confronted him. You've not told him you don't like his ways with your wife...

But you're pressing your wife for a non issue? Why do you not respect your wife? SMH!

Better start loving your wife more! Protect your wife!
