Education › Re: Ban Of Naira Atm Usage Abroad – A Perfect Way Forward. by redcliff: 1:42pm On Dec 30, 2015
You made really good points which are apt but what you failed to realize is that the CBN powered by the FG is only cutting the branches of the tree rather than cutting the tree from its roots. The question is this, for how long would this plaster and patch service keep on. How long can the FG hold it on. Like it or not, Nigerians would still buy and patronize markets outside Nigeria if what is at home is not comfortable with them. I see no reason why Nigerians would go to Ghana to School. I have not seen any foreigner in a Nigerian school before. except for international schools paying exorbitant fees which most likely are in USD.

Although the policy by the CBN is good in a way and it would greatly affect me too but I see no reason why hands should not be on deck now to repair the parts that are missing. If Nigerian schools are not up to world class standard in every sense of it, then parents would keep on sending their kids abroad and go to Ghana or Cotonou and pay their fees from there. If we keep importing rather than producing and using these items, Nigerians would not mind smuggling the foreign ones which are way better. producers of commodities also need to have a some sort of standard mechanism devoid of corruption and greed and focus on quality and durability. If this is not done, business folks would keep trying to get more standard products outside and the worst part of it would be that the transfer of these monies would be done off the books which would even mean more leakages for the Naira to keep depleting in its value. so in whatever way the CBN is trying to fix this issue would be like fetching water in a basket..

Politics › Re: Boko Haram: Goodluck Jonathan Replies Buhari by redcliff: 8:05am On Dec 29, 2015
Truepee:
Goodluck Jonathan and Muhammadu Buhari
Former President, Goodluck Jonathan has said he did not plan to lose the Boko Haram war as is being suggested by President Muhammadu Buhari.
According to the Punch, Jonathan spoke on Sunday in reaction to an interview Buhari granted the Hausa Service of the British Broadcasting Corporation. In the interview, Buhari accused the Jonathan administration of deliberately provoking Nigerian soldiers into mutiny by its actions and turning round to arrest and prosecute the soldiers.
He said the past administration, while fighting terrorists, sent soldiers to the battlefield without arms and ammunition. Jonathan, however, said he tried to protect the constitution, which had had sworn to defend when he assumed office.
The former president, who spoke through his then Minister of National Planning, Dr. Abubakar Suleiman, said he did everything within his power to defend the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the country.
“No responsible government would strategise to lose a war. President Jonathan sworn to defend Nigeria sovereignty and territorial integrity and he did everything possible to achieve that height in the fight against the insurgents,”a text message by Suleiman said.
“It is unfair therefore for Mr. President to perceive such efforts by his predecessor as criminal and treasonable.
“The President should, in an attempt to build this country, make such pronouncements that will further unite us as a people than that those that would divide us. Posterity will judge everybody.” http://adenaij..com/2015/12/goodluck-jonathan-and-muhammadu-buhari.html
you bloggers have literally turned journalism into something else. There is no rhythm to this story. Like the person who wrote it was on expired cociaine..the response given in defence of Jonathan does not even match the accusation levied against him.

Romance › Re: See The Question I Asked That Made Her Angry... by redcliff: 5:49pm On Dec 27, 2015
Samfigo1:
Hello everyone! I didn't want to bring this up but I can't just imagine how this question could make her so annoyed. Before I say the question, let me take you down the memory lane.
I started dating this girl for two months(I don't know if we're still dating, I'll tell you the reason why I say so), everything has been going on smoothly not until recently when we started asking each other questions. She has asked me so many questions, some of the questions are as follow:

My Babe: Have you dated before?

Me : Of course!

My Babe: Why did u break up?

Me: We didn't get along with each other, so we decided to call it quit.

My Babe: Oh I see....

She has asked me series of questions but I never asked her any.
One day precisely 3days ago, I decided to ask her this simple question that shouldn't take a minute to answer!
Have you been pregnant before? She paused and looked straight into my eyes and said What sort of question is that? What do l take her for? Am I saying she had done abortions before? She hissed, stood and left, since 2days now we've not called, sent text to each other.
Does the question sound absurd? why did she take it so personal? I have decided not to apologize because I don't think I have done wrong, that's why I said earlier that I don't know if we're still dating!
Lol. Ur dear gf has done an abortion before.. lmao!!!!

Youngsage:
Any particular way to identify a fake pair please? #justcurious
First of all, without even looking at details in his boost i can tell that its fake. The colours are totally off.. thats how i know his' is fake... where it might be hard to differentiate is when you see the original authentic. By first look you can never tell. But i would be completely honest with you, i dont think any nigerian living in nigeria has an authentic yeezy boost directly bought from the states because the competition for copping these things are super high abraod and even sneaker heads cant lay their hands on one. Talkless of m.i living in nigeria. Under 5mins of release on a website the sneakers are sold out totally! Then the folks who were lucky to cop one are the ones selling it for 700 and above..

+ I noticed that the handwriting of our foreign students are pathetic. Can't they write in Arial or Verdana or Times News Roman straight font. cry

+ $1,000 a month spend is a lot of money ie N200,000 shocked

+ CBN approves academic tuition overseas from Nigeria with priority.

+ Housing can be paid from Nigeria.

+ Handouts are not sold overseas.

+ Basically, you need cash for transportation (which is at times free), feeding allowance and entertainment. So that $1,000 is still too much.

+ You can buy food ingredients from Nigeria to conserve forex.

+ Clubbing is cheap.

+ I don't understand why they are complaining.

PS: where can I get a boxing glove? Its boxing day

Even students of Abia State University dont require such budget per semester.Where is lalasticlala sef grin
Its obvious you have not travelled outside nigeria before to think that 1000 dolars is way too much for a student per month. Comments like yours shows how shallow nigerians in nigeria think. Smh

thats the problem with no having an ideology before doing something. PDP started this and grew into it just for the sole aim of milking the country dry. now their ideology of what the party should be known for (which is just to destroy and milk) is no longer there so there is no need to belong to it anymore.

Blizzy9ja:
you stfu... I know what am saying, more than half the kids from inter racial relationship hate to identify with their Africans root... I have cousins in the UK that hate Africa.
Your cousin is one in millions. you cannot use that as a basis for ur arguement. Besides, any inter racial kid who does not identify with his root simply connotes that his root (either dad or mom) was cut off from their up bringing. It simply means (coming to ur own understanding) that the dad or mom probably had a problem with their foreign partner Which is not different from what this silly man in the story did. So when i say stfu, i mean it to the very letter!

Readonee35L:
Commercial octane boosters are a scam.

For example, if one says it'll raise your octane by 7 points. This is what they mean:

87 Octane + 7 Point Octane Boost = 87.7 Octane.

NOT 94 Octane.

oh trust me, even worse!!
read them again...
most of addtive says "up to 5 points", "up to 10 points", or "up to 20 points"
what does that mean?

it means it goes up anywhere from 0 to 20 points,
so u might get only 1 points after all....who knows?

87+0.1=87.1
wow....how sad~

From my experiences, add a bottle to a full tank.
u wouldn't feel any difference....
and it actually reduce the gas mileage for that tank of gas with booster.
what I mean is:
a reguler tank of gas: 36 mpg
tank of gas with oct boost: 30~32mpg

they do help clean up ur fuel injecters though,
so it's not bad to use it once a while.

anyway, I wouldn't recommand to use them on old cars,
cause the alcohol from the booster tend to destory or aging
fuel lines made of rubber, gaskets.....etc.

cramjones:
A lot of intelligence financial houses in the UK and US predict that the Naira will stabilize at about N350 to a dollar in about 5 months, assuming the following remains, which it is likely to:

1. Oil price remains at $37 - $45/barrell

2. Foreign investors still remain out of stock market (for those that don't know there has been over 70% pull out of foreign investors from the Nigerian stock market)

3. If PMB borrows $10 billion to at least pay the FGN wage bill and embark on capital projects.

4. If the unrest in the North-East, South-East and parts of the middle belt like Kwara remains.

My advice is that whatever Naira you have, go and buy dollars, and only change when you want to use it. GEJ's administration massive looting and mismangement has put our country at the brink, and it is time to wear you thinking caps, lest you become poorer with a useless naira.
