Politics / Re: Buhari & Osinbajo Said This About Fuel Subsidy In 2011 During GEJ Time(pics) by Raymie(m): 12:08pm On May 12, 2016
Oz4realsss:


Your claim is ridiculous. How dare you compare the petroleum industry to the telecommunications sector? Although there may have been noticeable gains, but its effect on the common man is never the same as the petroleum product would.

The telephone is not an essential commodity as the petrol. The common man depends on the latter for transportation and electricity. It is also an essential factor that determines the prices of goods and services in Nigeria. It further determines the cost of running small scale businesses in this era of epileptic power supply.

Same cannot be said about the telephone industry you provided as an analogy. Even when the telephone sector was deregulated, only those that could afford the high cost went for it. Only those that can afford it are still patronizing it till date. There are very expensive android phones also, but not everyone owns them. Infact, a sizable number of Nigerians own and use android phones. This simply tells that the telephone ownership and usage is not an essential commodity that affects the general wellbeing of large chunk of our society.
Having said these, stop comparing oranges to mangoes!
To add to this, we should stop using diesel as comparative as well. When diesel was deregulated in 2006, it cost 90naira, now the same diesel sells for 125-165 and in periods of scarcity, 300+. And this is not exactly an essential commodity. PMS on the other hand, dictate the prices of things around it as it directly impacts every Nigerian one way or the other. If tomorrow, petrol falls, will foodstuff, services and all those that base their pricing on - among other factors- petrol price hike, reduce the price of their products? I'm personally not against the subsidy removal. however, at a time when we suffer grinding hardship is nothing short of inconsiderate. The government's attitude, honestly, is one of do your worst, we don't care.

the entire car looks like an error, and it would not sell..
If Maserati slaps their logo on a Regal Reliant, truss me, it wee sell. That does not imply that this Levant isnt a bigger and "uglier"Nissan juke.

Car Talk / Re: Any Lexus Is250 Owners Here? by Raymie(m): 12:46pm On May 02, 2016
The IS series is the Corolla equivalent of the Lexus even tho the only similarity may be the size. Its a very good buy if you do not intend making the owner's corner a routine seat in the car.

IMO, I'd suggest you put up his name, and features (no photos) so he doesn't go out getting another driving job. Even baby sis who still can't drive properly won't drive as this.

Thank you very much. Concerning the Greco Roman architecture, I'm not really a fan of those cry especially the doric, Ionic and Corinthian column designs. I'd sure do something of that sort on Client's request (they normally refer to it as white house design)
Thank you for the compliments once again.
sad Ehen, White House design. Those kinda buildings have an everlasting-ness to themselves. But want to ask, what do yhu say about these high pointed roofs fast being a fad in our buildings? Methinks they're a waste of resources especially as most are not converted to attics or some other room forms in Nigeria.
