Politics › Re: Southern Kaduna Says No To Grazing Reserve by Reference(m): 9:38pm On Jun 26, 2016

This is a business venture for 'chrissakes'! And these cows are owned by politicians and rich businessmen.

Roaming actually reduces the quantity of milk the cows can produce, burns meat and fat -- that's some money the penny wise, pound . . . are losing. SMH
I disagree with the latter. Any constantly moving animal will always be of better quality. It may be lean but that is what is called prime beef, tastier and healthier, same goes for milk, less quantity but less fatty, similar to free range poultry aka local chicken. They are not big but will not load your veins with cholesterol, won't melt in your pot and won't require detergent to sanitize it.

N11b to employ just 1000?Whereas the same amount can empower 22,000 at the rate of N500,000 loan per person,with a greater multiplier effect on the economy.

The 22,000 people can on the long run employ sa 10 people each.On the long run,about 242,000 youths could have been engaged.

It is better to give loans to 22000 micro businesses,than just one business empire to gulp a whooping N11b!

cry
Is this common sense?
Can you so the same analysis for Dangote's refinery under construction, how much it will cost and how many will be employed, then get back to me pls. Your analysis is painfully simplistic.

PS let me help you: 14 billion dollars (4 trillion naira) and it won't engage more than 3 to 5,000 folks. So.....re-analyse....and tell Dangote to go social.

This is normal. What happened earlier with the sealing of the premises and disruption of activities was silly and thoughtless. The take over could have happened at board level since they had a legit court order. No need for dramatics that has led to politicking. Companies are taken over for various reasons worldwide without the knowledge of the public. I have never met the Bruces' personally (my parents used to know their parents when they were running Domino stores in the 70's) but we have all used their products and enjoyed their services. This is the fact, not their faces. It doesn't matter who runs brand Bruce. It is AMCON that has lost to the disruption.

Acura SUV and not jeep, when will we learn. A JEEP is a brand name like ACURA.
It has become a popular expression so it is legit. The English language is filled with such.

Football is such a funny game. See Portugal that has not won in regulation since the tournament began, barely scraping through to round 2 where it had just one meaningful chance all night, might just go all the way to the finals.

Reminds me of USA 94. The Italians barely came out of their group but went all the way to the finals while some teams that won their groups or all their group matches got knocked out in round 2. Wierd. Footy ain't just fair.
Politics › Re: Power Supply: Don’t Shut Down, Don’t Downsize, Fashola Tells Industrialists by Reference(m): 10:06pm On Jun 25, 2016
All the proposed and ongoing plants put together does not even break the 10,000 mw mark and it is foolhardy to expect all the plants to work all the time, mechanical things are just not like that. When will we get visionaries in charge, in government, in this sorry country. Just fed up. Whay can't the government authorize the feee trade in power in this country. Is it that hard. I am convinced that the installed capacity of private generator owners is more than double that of organised power companies and like my economic theory always goes: You cannot dictate what you donot control and you cannot control what you cannot provide.

In the US private households sell excess capacity to the grid. Why can't we do same here when private capacity outstrips organised power's. The government had better propose legislation to create a power market and open up the industry beyond the present players who are doing next to nothing to increase capacity when the capacity already exists in private homes, business premises and industries.

Please tell me what the hell is this. I mean, what kind of rubbish is this.

So what will you give the task force in the delta, canoes or rubber this country sef.....we are truly a laughing stock. Just wait till they see this in Ghana or South Africa.

Can self determination ever happen in Nigeria. Will the owners of the country ever allow it. A clear difference between a developed and undeveloped (or never to develop) country. One persecutes, kills and destroys its own while the other permits the expression of what God Almighty has given us, A FREE WILL, LIBERTY and the right to be happy. I'm just sorry for this country, worse and worse every passing year, every passing government because we hate the truth. If we don't restructure this country we are going down and no will can stop that.

Am on the side of the president cuz we need a special court for corruption cases in this country to enhance speedy Justice delivery on corruption cases, with this PDP people in charge of the legislature they ll continue to protect the corrupt politicians. Saraki and ekwerenmadu must go. We need a new and better Nigeria, we are tired of living in our old ways, there's time for everything. Buhari needs our support now cuz he's fighting for us, what ll it cost him to toe the way of OBJ and Gej and collect his own share of the national cake. Think Nigerians think.
Rather than have the fight against corruption institutionalised instead of being personalized, your solution is to have a one party state leading to a dictatorship. It appears you are not very bright and have failed to study your history. It never ends well my dear. If it must then listen to Clinton once again. It is strong institutions we need, not strong men. Why must the black man fail to use his head time and again.

The National Assembly and the President have their swords fully drawn. The ensuing conflict may not augur well for our growing democracy. Former Heads of state should mediate in the face-off before it festers beyond repair.
Why. Because of dinner....of food....of chop and smile....when are we ever going to get it, that 'seperation' of powers is constitutional and that one trying to coerce the other is perfectly legit and healthy for our democracy. Buhari should continue hounding them and if they cannot fight back that is their business. They will go into extinction and we back to dictatorship. Dinner ko, a la carte ni....

Why should you be paying your wife. Is she your emoloyee. You guys just don't know what marraige is all about. Abeg go and study. You are the reason girls REFUSE TO DEVELOP THEMSELVES BEYOND THE SKIN. Your wife is a shareholder in the enterprise called marraige. You don't pay a shareholder and an equal shareholder for that matter, she gets the dividends credited to her account when the books are balanced. Thus she is EQUALLY responsible for the financial performance of the family. You don't pay such people, you task them, then their reward comes with YOURS. Let us stop looking down on our women. They are equally capable and should be equally rewarded.
