FoodRe: Price Of Sallah Rams Double Due To Boko Haram Unrest by Remii(m): 8:05am On Oct 21, 2012
mu2sa2: Every thing is made easy in Islam, so no muslim need complain about the price of ram or other animals used for ileya. You sacrifice an animal only if you can afford one. Simple. Islam is a Knowledge-based religion, a religion of scholarship - so you must learn the rules about any act of ibadah. Ileya sacrifice is only for those who can afford it.Even if a ram sells for only 1000 naira there will still be people who can not afford it. Those who Allah has provided with the means should give a share of the meat to those who are not able to do the ileya and indeed their neighbours irrespective of faith. Do not place a burden on yourself when Allah has made things easy for you -that's the beauty of Islam. May Allah guide all to the straight path, the sunnah of the prophet.
Baraka lau fih, my brother, laikira bi deen, No compulsion in religion. Sacrifice only for the sake of Allah as much as you are endowed. May Allah accept our effort, Amin.
CrimeRe: Elechi Amadi Defends Aluu Community by Remii(m): 3:03pm On Oct 19, 2012
MD yaQ: ALuu Community are killers and fools that Community should be wip away frm Nigeria Useless
What happen in Aluu is bad and conbdemable, however that does not make all Aluu people criminals, lynching happens everywhere including Lagos, does that make everyone in the town criminlas. It is possible for people not to know about the inident until days after, depending on location.
Those who have been to Uniport will know that Aluu and Choba are equal hosts to the University infact some of those who killed the children will include Uniport students because may of them leave in Aluu
The main culprit in this matter is the bad debtor that misled everyone to believe that his creditors were armed robbers.
PoliticsRe: Ojukwu's Interview Just Before Biafra (VIDEO) by Remii(m):
CyberG: I think you should let the Yoruba people talk for themselves here and NOT rope me into your insecurity, your fear of THEM.

Now back to the issue, the tantrum of 1967 was avoidable for ojuku and ibo false and inflated ego of suffer-headedness. I am not insulting you but calling a spade a spade, okay? Do you not know that ojuku pretentiously goaded Nigerian leadership and governors (SMC) during negotiation that further arm importation be stopped and information about the location and quantity of arms be circulated? Well, guess what? He believed he would be outsmarting the more capable tacticians and military strategists on the Nigerian side for while doing that, he had intensified efforts to ship arms into biafra through Port Harcourt. Shortly after all this posturing, 2 ship loads of arms was secretly berthed in PH and ojuku, personally went to supervise the shipment of the arms to biafra. Do you know this story or you were not there? Some of us have been quiet for long but now, we will put iboz to the screws so badly they will cry till eternity.

The Nigerian army allowed the war to last for 2 year 6 months and 9 days so STOP all this ibo BS of 3 years. In fact, there were several spells in which the Nigerian army decided to let you get rested and see if ojuku would realize he was a loser before he killed more people but no way; the devil had charmed his big flat head. Waiting spells in a war is not new because even during WW 2, there were spells in which nothing was really happening and that is why you hear phraseologies like the "Phoney War", "Bore War", etc. So out of the actual period of the war, biafra didn't have anything to do but wait until the Nigerian gallant military commanders were ready to engage again with flanking manoeuvres, pincers, double pincers, forks, pin downs, punch throughs or the Nigerian blitzkrieg for which the biafrans were caught like deers in the headlights. The waiting periods also allowed the innocent kids and stupi.d warmongering secessionists to eat something for if not, starvation would be killing iboz as they just drop dead on the road. This is harsh truth and I know iboz cannot stand naked truth. iboz are so ungracious because there's nothing that makes it impossible for biafra to capitulate in 1 week. All that is required is 1,000 sorties of heavy bombers, dive bombers, rockets, etc carper bombing the whole land for 1 week, day and night! But even when the Nigerian leadership took it easy by not following that route, here are iboz still making mouth! Delusional dede and ibo losers.
less than that sef, the war was stopped for two days to allow soldiers watch Pele in Lagos, grin grin grin grin grin


In 1967, the Nigerian Civil War had a 48-hour ceasefire to watch Pelé play an exhibition game in Lagos. http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m1608/is_2_22/ai_n16071178/

[quote author=Frank-C]This idea of equality before the law is an idea mouthed by politicians when it suit them. I will understand when a professor says this in the classroom. In real life, there is nothing like equality before the law, unless you want to live in dream land. If not, tell me how Obama is equal to the average Joe in New Orleans. Or tell me how you are equal to Fashola that has mouthed this talk more than anyone else.
The masses love to live in a dreamland. If CJN of a soverign nation cannot use emergency traffic lane while on National assignment, tell me who will. I was once in a boarding queue in Brazil and three guys from behind went straight towards the boarding gate. The eagle eyed security guys were already positioning themselves before the guys brought out their US Marine uniform. Come see salute, even civilians for queue follow dey salute.

No easy way out but it is definitely a better way and most Nigerians won't kick against it. Why should the option that has repeatedly failed be the solution? When Soludo proposed his idea, it was embraced by the people (best to my knowledge), NTA news even covered people praising the idea.
You see, I think the best option is to work on the economy to make Naira appreciate on stronger economy if the focus is to ensure masses don't loose out. Any kind of re denomination will result in some kind of inflation. Ghana is very expensive now compared to pre re-denomination period.

thegoodjoehunt: You gave 2 options. I always supported Soludo's idea.

If this dropping zeros was being proposed, I don't think there would have been a problem.
I bet that one too has its own issues including inflation due to people's mentality. Imagine N1,000,000 salary suddenly becomes N10,000. Don't you think pure water seller will find it hard to sell at 10k from N10. she may end up at 5k, what is that if not inflation. Travelers to Ghana before and after re-denonation can tell you that Ghana is kinda expensive now.

No easy way out if you got yourself into a mess. Naira is in a mess right now and you can't eat your cake and have it.
PoliticsRe: Introduction Of N5,000 Note: Nigerians Are Wasting Their Time – Sanusi Lamido by Remii(m):
thegoodjoehunt:

No one is arguing your point here. What we are saying is that this will lead to an inflation in the market, which will lead to the value of the currency dropping and then a higher denomination printed again and the cycle continues. SLS should think of a better solution. This alternative is a no no.
I assumed we have some meeting points on this N5k introduction. I know also that going by definition of ifeci up there, there are so many other factors that can lead to inflation apart from N5k notes . I assume also that you agree with me that Naira as it is right now neeed some form of management solution. Either re denominate down by droping zeros or up by creating higher denominations.

Please volunteer what you would do if your were in the shoes of SLS today to help the case of Naira.

Do you think the highlighted could be done by next year. If NO, then the inflation you talked about avoiding will occur and the need to resist should be supported.
So if Nigerians can't control themselves what should the CBN do? Allow Naira to slide?
At the present value, alternative to higher denominations is the removal of zeroes which Soludo attempted and stopped, but something needed to be done to assist Naira management. It is now very difficult to carry $1000 worth of Naira on ones person because highest denomination is two low. N1000 = $6 = £4.
Also If it costs more than N10 or N20 to print those currencies as claimed by CBN then its not advisable. Even simple paper requirement comparison will show that something needed to be done. $1000 = N160,000, dollar will be 10 pieces Naira will be 160 notes.
Cashless policy is still intact, the policy did not say, " no more cash" it's to encourage cashless transaction by placing penalties for withdrawal or lodging certain amount of cash, in any form of denomination.
Looters will continue to steal, whatever denomination is inncirculation. Ribadu was bribed using $ by Ibori. We should not let thieves and corrupt element dictatate how lives of majority is run.

Man Billi, I have not seen any proof you have dropped that proves this 5K note won't cause inflation. A lot of people have stressed that it has been a recurring cycle. Whenever there is an increase in the highest Note, there has been inflation. No one has dropped the reason why it happens but it does happen. Just like during the subsidy removal demonstrations, many talked about an inflation in the market and pro-subsidy supporters asked for proof that it will cause inflation.

What you should do is prove that it won't cause inflation or did I miss something somewhere.
Bros, technically speaking inflation should be result of more money chasing few goods, am I right? Please tell me how introduction of higher denomination of currency will lead to increase in price of commodities if people's income are not increased and govt spending is controlled. Only Nigerians mentality can lead to artificial inflation if out of arrogance you want to show off by spending N5k notes unnesseccasily or decide not to take or spend coins. If pure is continued to be supplied to sellers at present price, would you pay N50 for a sachet just because N10 is in coin?

Reference: Very interesting debate so far. One question though. If the higher denotes are for high value transactions, imports and BDC's of sorts, please can anyone tell me why these group isn't at the forefront of cashless. Surely their turnover and sophistication should afford them a host of media and exotic payment toys. But pity the vendor in traffic after munching his gala and sticking that evil note in his face. Maybe SLS expects them to invest in PoS terminals while the big boys do cash. Funny. Oya debate.
SLS: See, Suraj. It is not. First, know that this is not a monetary policy but just currency management. Our cashless policy never says there should not be any cash at all. It only discourages heavy cash in the system. Whether in N5 notes or N5000 notes, the limit of N500,000 will still be N500,000. So what are we saying? It also enhances operational efficiencies. The number of times banks load their ATM machines will also reduce. Banks can now load up to 5 times the value in their ATM and reduces rate of stocking and associated costs. The cost of printing and managing currency will also reduce.

That was Sls responded to Jarus. https://www.nairaland.com/1029840/conversation-sanusi-new-currency-policy

ifeci: i like ur write up but comparing the economies of US and GB with Nigeria will a be faulty analogy because these guys have already existing facilities that will accept coins, u can buy drinks, gas etc and pay with coins, or go to the bank and deposit coins cos u hv machines installed to accept that form of payment but in Nigeria, where do u spend that, even Banks reject coins talk less of sellers on streets and in the market or transporters, how wld the carry it? how can they easily convert or store it without having to carry dt bulky stuff around?
I think coins are rejected because of their very low values as of now, in Cote D'Ivoire a drop of taxi is 200cfa, their money up to 500cfa are in coins and they happily spend them. Nigerians need to make policies work.

PoliticsRe: Introduction Of N5,000 Note: Nigerians Are Wasting Their Time – Sanusi Lamido by Remii(m): 1:01pm On Sep 16, 2012
Honestly speaking, Naira needs to be re denominated somehow, either by removing some zeros as attempted by Soludo or printing higher denomination as currently being proposed by Sanusi. Soludo style seems better. N1000 is equal to 6USD or 4PDS at that value, N100 is about 65cents. We all know that UK has 2PDS coins ~N500. If the higher denominations are created with N50 coins, as being proposed, it should not lead to inflation, provided Nigerians are ready to resist traders antics, since there income will remain same. Nigerians need to work on attitude of spending higher denominations too. 50PDS and 100USD are not freely spent in UK and US respectively. CBN should be careful not to flood the system with proposed N5k notes too.

“My job is to do my best in whatever circumstance I find myself. I did not choose this time to be CBN governor. If we have fiscal leakages and reserves are crashing and naira weakening I have to tighten naira supply. Interest rates go up everyone attacks SLS. But you can't have low rates with high inflation, a weak naira and no reserve buffers. You can’t eat your cake and have it.

The problem is that the CBN is the only institution doing anything. Roads are not being built. We have no new airports. No progess on new power plants. No rail lines. So every time we do something all hell breaks loose.

What SLS is saying here is that he is taking care of his own side, we need to confront those whose actions or inactions are forcing CBN to react as she is. Those responsible for roads, infrastructure, spending money any how, payment for contracts without execution etc etc.
