Nwaikpe:
One of those useless posts from uneducated people who hardly know the meaning of formal education, but will want to advise people on it.


Who told these illiterate that schools are meant to teach you skills?

Does it mean the judge gave the order maintaining status quo as at the said date or the order is to maintain the current status quo?
The governor can easily get a favourable ruling from his state high court of coordinate jurisdiction

Nigerian Apostle Abel Damina has gone Viral for criticizing the Catholic Church while making very controversial statements like “ They are on their way to Hell “.

This clip got a lot of mixed reactions from people in the Christian community.

Politics › Re: Asari Dokubo, The Amanyanabo Of Torusarama Piri, Degema LGA (Pictures) by REALretep(m): 11:01am On Jan 02, 2025
PrinceOfLagos:
Rivers State governor, Sir Siminalayi Fubara, has presented Certificates of Recognition and Staff of Office to former Niger Delta militant leader, Alhaji Mujahid Dokubo-Asari, and three others as newly recognised traditional rulers in the state.


Dokubo-Asari was presented with a certificate and staff of office as the Amanyanabo of Torusarama Piri in Degema local government area of the state.

Others are HRM, Winston Odize Alamina Oputibeya XII, as the Amanyanabo of Koniju in Okrika local government area; HRM Eze Noble Friday Uwo as the Eze Igbu-Ehuda (Ahoada) IV in Ahoada-East local hovernment area and HRH Prince Ike Ehie as the Eze Igbu Orilukwoe in Ahoada-East local government area of the state.

Presenting the certificates and staff of office to the four new traditional rulers at Government House, Port Harcourt on Tuesday, Governor Fubara urged them not to see their new positions as tool for personal aggrandizement, rather they should see it as a call for service and responsibility to help government protect lives and property in their respective domains.


The governor said: “Let me first of all, on behalf of the government, congratulate the four of you. It has not been an easy journey to get to this point. I know a lot of you have been working very hard to ensure the success of this day. Your appointment in terms of this recognition is not for personal aggrandizement, but a call for service, a responsibility to help us protect lives and property in your domains.”

He stated that though government has the power to withdraw the recognition from any traditional ruler found wanting, Fubara quickly added that it was not his intention to exercise such authority, and warned them not to use the privileged positions to create problems in their domains, but join forces with government to ensure the success of the administration in it’s avowed commitment to deliver dividends of democracy to the people.

Fubara said, “I don’t want you to see this elevation as another platform to create problems in your locality. We have the power to still withdraw the recognition, but I don’t intend to do that. So, I want you to be partners with the government to ensure that we continue to succeed.

“I know that you are all men of integrity. Support the course of governance so that we can all succeed together. It is really a privileged position, and I am very sure that you are going to use it to the best of the interest of your people.”

In his opening remarks, the State’s Commissioner for Chieftaincy and Community Affairs, Engr. Charles Amadi, said the newly recognised traditional rulers include two royal majesties and two royal highnesses, and commended Fubara for adding into the number of Rivers State Council of Traditional Rulers.

https://www.nairaland.com/7953428/mom-made-me-miserable-she

I posted the above topic before when I married the ugly village girl my mom insisted I must marry.

We've been together for 2 years now, no child. The problem is that she's always giving me one infection or the other. I've treated infection for more than 3 times and this is someone I married a virgin.

The other day, I was peeing blood and it was so painful coming out. I've never cheated on her and I'm sure she's not cheating but I don't know how she gets these infections.

Right now, I'm on a sick bed battling infection and other ailment....on a new year day. My stomach has been biting me for 3 days now.

I'm tired. I'm thinking of sending her back to the village before she kills me.

I've told my mom that I'm no longer interested but she keeps on begging and telling me that things will get better. Things are getting worse day by day. She's so dull. She just sits at home. No ambition....nothing! Just cooks, washes, cleans, then stays home all day watching movies. A graduate with masters.

I'm so frustrated!
[color=indigo]This your story is actually better now that you both are yet to bring children to this planet to suffer in the loveless marriage.
Therefore, whatever you have to do, you better do it now and take full responsibility.
But I do understand this is going to be a tough decision for you especially because your mum is involved. Sorry bro.

You should get God involved to help you...if you can

Olabestonic001:
Just a question, do you think Tinubu political prowess came from his wife or his wife's own came from him?

Betty is poor at politics! She gives the vibes of a desperate woman who believes that she can only get one opportunity in life and that has been lost. If she is that politically relevant, she will bid her time, re-strategize, build on her husband legacy and relaunch her political dynasty. But, she can't as she has been crossed with everyone who could help.

Even Tinubu that she could have courted his political favor, she don scatter the place. She is now a political pariah in Nigeria and her children can't be trusted because of her.

Her story should be studied in some political case study of how not to make moves.
[color=indigo] You are missing the point which is about the priceless support and encouragement a woman gives her husband to achieve great feats. Marrying a woman who doesn't support your dreams is counterproductive and can an obstacle to achieving those dreams

Politics › Re: Imo State Govt Replies PDP Over Low Rating On VAT Collection by REALretep(m):
Edygrin:
Emelumba, noted that the low rate of VAT Collection in the State is as a result of factors independent of the economic and infrastructural policies of the State.

He further noted that while the Government has no control over businesses and their operational capability, including how much they remit as VAT, the State Government has created the enabling environment to attract them to the State, adding that it was why the State economy was growing faster than that of many States.
[color=indigo] Government of lies @bolded

Which enabling environment did Hope Uzodimma create to attract businesses?
Which Imo State economy is growing faster?

Why won't Imo State have the lowest VAT among all states of the federation with the high level of insecurity, lack of policy direction and absence of quality leadership in the state

Properties › Re: Building For Renting Should Be Used With Your Spare Money by REALretep(m): 12:39pm On Dec 09, 2024
vikstandon:
Bro, in the long run, buildings depreciate while land appreciates.

I’ve seen instances where people purchase structures only to demolish them and construct something new. Buildings eventually become obsolete. It’s wiser to build houses in locations where you can recoup your investment within a few years.

Several factors make people opt for virgin lands in cases where existing structures need to be torn down. These include the cost of demolition, the need for equipment like tractors, labor expenses, and the removal of debris.

You might not agree with my perspective, but that’s the reality as I see it. We’re all wired to think differently.

You need to be smarter. I have used this as my bargaining advantage. I no dey price you structure, most times I dey price land.
[color=indigo]Bro
Land with a structure on it is priced higher than similar sized land in same location with no structure on it.
Also, land with a recent structure on it is priced higher than land with an old structure on it

psucc:
By 2nd quarter of next year, it will be on oil revenue sharing as States will have to control oil revenue while paying tax or royalties to the FG. No more FAAC!

Nigeria must be restructured! Nigeria must be a federated State! Fiscal federalism must be the hallmark.

Let the north get set. It's been condoned for so long
[color=indigo] Exactly
The north is the problem of the north.
They have been so used to being spoon-fed with resources from the south.
They have been in power at the center for many years with almost nothing to show for it...busy sharing money and jobs to their people without building the people or encouraging business investments.

I hope Tinubu has the political will to bring this feeding bottle system to an end

Politics › Re: FG Statement On Tax Bills Debate by REALretep(m): 7:00pm On Dec 03, 2024
Macphenson:
One of the most controversial issues in this Tax Reform Bill is that 60% of VAT to be shared by states will be given to the state it was collected from, It seems by this it will only favour mostly Lagos and Rivers State to the detriment of the Northern states who are collecting more VAT based on population.

Here is my concern, Lagos state was deliberately made the commercial headquaters of the Nation to the detriment of other states the more reason it collects more taxes.

Practically, All the cars entering the country pays their tax to only Lagos state. Even the cars to be used in Rivers, Akwa Ibom, Bayelsa, Delta and Cross River states. Now this is not fair to these states as they have their own seaports but cars are not entering them, the taxes they are supposed to get as a state goes to Lagos state.

Also, Telecom companies pay their VAT in Lagos because their headquaters are located in Lagos, If this new bill is passed, that is no longer fair to all other states where the Telcom companies operate. Telcom companies should now start paying VAT to each state they operate as you can no longer rob Peter to pay Paul.

Oil companies have their headquaters located in Lagos while they operate in different states especially in the Niger Delta. This will no longer be fair if the bill is passed becaused those states where the oil companies operate will start demanding that the oil companies pay thier VAT in those states they operate.

The truth is this bill if passed, is seriously going to open litany of issues which I dont think at the moment the bill captured or resolved it.

Another worrisome dimension, this may prompt the oil producing states to start demanding for 60% of the oil revenues from their respective states, once this happens, chaos will reign supreme in the country.
