PoliticsRe: State Electoral Commissions Should Be Scrapped – AGF Fagbemi by RenaissanceGuy: 1:28pm On May 27, 2024
I agree with him. If INEC is in charge of conducting LG elections, no governor will be able to hinder them from conducting elections as at when due, like they easily do to their SIEC. Imagine if the president routinely prevents INEC from conducting a governorship election and keeps elongating the tenure of an expired governor??
PoliticsRe: ECOMOG Operations In Sierra Leone (Historical Images) by RenaissanceGuy:
A relative of mine of about 26 years old was drafted for this war and it was a celebration galore when he came back alive.
PoliticsRe: Obaseki Pays ₦‎70,000 New Minimum Wage To Edo Workers by RenaissanceGuy: 8:53am On May 27, 2024
senatordave1:
I am a neutral who supported obaseki in 2020 because of godfatherism
Liar! The same you who's garfield1 who's a APC through and through and can analyse any legal issue to favour APC, support PDP??
PoliticsRe: Emirate Power Tussle: Police Uncovers Plot To Set Kano Assembly On Fire by RenaissanceGuy: 8:48am On May 27, 2024
If Fulani to Fulani disagreement is this heated up, what would it have been if it was Fulani vs Hausa??
CultureRe: ‘There’s No Emir In Nassarawa’, Sanusi’s Son, Ashraf Taunts Father’s Rival by RenaissanceGuy: 7:58pm On May 25, 2024
These Fulani people are not even rotating the emirship with the Hausa — they made it their perpetual heritage. What a wooooow. grin
PoliticsRe: Hold Tinubu Responsible If There Is Breakdown Of Law & Order In Kano - Atiku by RenaissanceGuy: 7:55pm On May 25, 2024
If Tinubu doesn't have hands in the return of the deposed emir, why did soldiers escort him to another palace?? Why did they even allow him to go back to Kano in the first place?? Is Nuhu Ribadu acting on his own??
CultureRe: Sanusi: Tinubu Resisted Pressure To Interfere In My Reinstatement by RenaissanceGuy: 7:44pm On May 25, 2024
Who then approved soldiers to escort the former emir to the alternate palace?? I guess this was before the former emir came back.
PoliticsRe: This Is Not Shanghai, This Is Aba (pictures) by RenaissanceGuy: 1:30pm On May 25, 2024
Aba is very planned. I like the way you always see a long sea of high-rise buildings by the right and the left and a street road in between.
Foreign AffairsRe: What Japan Is Trying To Prove Here? (pix) by RenaissanceGuy: 1:23pm On May 25, 2024
Technology and Innovation live in Japan.
PoliticsRe: Sanusi Lamido And Kano’s Royal Ding-Dong By Farooq A. Kperogi by RenaissanceGuy: 12:57pm On May 25, 2024
I was even thinking that the recently deposed emir is Hausa while Sanusi is Fulani, but they're actually both Fulani. So this should be very easy to resolve.
PoliticsRe: PO Donates 10million To College Of Nursing In Anambra State. by RenaissanceGuy: 10:21am On May 25, 2024
Whoever is advising him to keep doing this is doing him a great disfavor. This was how that US-based doctor thought donations and charity works would help him win Anambra gov election and he ended getting less than 2 votes grin.
PoliticsRe: Military Officials Arrived To Escort Ado Bayero To The Palace As Emir Of Kano by RenaissanceGuy: 9:56am On May 25, 2024
Abuja people should not set Kano on fire. Ganduje should take his loss in peace.
Foreign AffairsRe: Top UN Court Orders Israel To Stop Rafah Offensive by RenaissanceGuy: 5:29pm On May 24, 2024
id4sho:
ICJ gave arrest warrant on Netanyahu &Y Gallant and you are still ordering them out of Rafah. Next news please
ICC is different from ICJ.
PoliticsRe: Abba Kyari Gets Bail After 27 Months In Detention by RenaissanceGuy: 8:38pm On May 22, 2024
A trial that shouldn't have taken more than 4 months is yet to start after nearly 2 years.
PoliticsRe: Heavy Security As Kano Emirates Council Law Scales First Reading by RenaissanceGuy: 4:18pm On May 22, 2024
It'd be a show of very high political astuteness and dexterity if this governor succeeds in bringing Sanusi back as emir.
PoliticsRe: Breaking: Again, Labour Rejects N54,000 As New Minimum Wage by RenaissanceGuy: 6:08pm On May 21, 2024
As much as I believe that ₦54K is still poor, the truth is that many people don't understand what a minimum wage is. They think it means that that is what all government workers earn, whereas it's the wage for the worker at the lowest level, probably the cleaners in govt offices.
PoliticsRe: Fubara Wins As Court Nullifies Amendment Of LG Law By Pro-wike Lawmakers by RenaissanceGuy: 3:52pm On May 21, 2024
It's like the president or the NASS passing law to extend the tenure of a governor or extend even the tenure of the president himself.
PoliticsRe: It’s Time For A ‘United States Of Africa’. Discuss. by RenaissanceGuy: 4:52pm On May 18, 2024
Rossiki with another funny thread. We're praying for Nigeria to divide into as much as 4-6 countries, because the leaders are unable to manage the bloated population, you're asking for more trouble. How does big population help any country?? Some European countries are not up to 5 million, but their GDP dwarfs Nigeria's with 200m people.
PoliticsRe: Three Judges Get NJC Warning Letters, Others’ Promotion Suspended by RenaissanceGuy: 8:01pm On May 17, 2024
I was expecting 85. What about the FHC judges cashing out in millions every month from politicians by granting restraining orders??
PoliticsRe: Popular Ikwerre Social Media Influencer Compares The 5 SE States To Oyo State by RenaissanceGuy: 5:20pm On May 17, 2024
theredaddy:
GDP measures economic growth while IGR Propels economic growth ... if you can't discern the difference and impact then there is no point taking these discussion any further.
That doesn't change the fact that wealth and economic development is not measured by revenue, but GDP/GDP per capita.

theredaddy:
No bro, GDP is the yardstick used for a country, what you don't know learn
States are best evaluated with IGR while countries are rated base on GDP ... write it down
I don't know why i can't upload file, but here is a credible source
The United States of America, China, Germany, Japan, and India are the largest economies in the world in 2024, as per their GDP data. GDP serves as a key metric for assessing the magnitude of a nation's economy America GDP is $25.5 trn followed by china $17.9trn, whatelse ?https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.forbesindia.com/amp/article/explainers/top-10-largest-economies-in-the-world/86159/1
LIE. Read Wikipedia entries on New York, California, Berlin, London, Accra, Lagos, and any other city/state in any country at all, and you won't come across the term IGR. What concerns IGR with economic development?? IGR belongs to the govt while GDP comprises of the value of all economic activities in a country, state, city, town or even your family.

The major metrics for measuring a country's/state's/city's/ prosperity are urban development rate, GDP and GDP per capita. Who cares if your country or state govt generates $100b per month but everywhere is slum and people are living in poverty like Nigeria is??

Thread created by ObamaMessi1 obavoh Victorusa efelicity and all the other endless monikers he uses to dispense fake stories.
PoliticsRe: How Can Graduation Takes Place In The Third Week Of Resumption Of 3rd Term? by RenaissanceGuy: 12:35pm On May 17, 2024
Who even does graduation ceremony inside a sitting room?? He should have indicated that the graduation is still two months away, but he only decided to honor the boy by visiting him at his home.
PoliticsRe: Reno Omokri Hails SW Governors For Development Strides by RenaissanceGuy:
In addition, they have the most urban development of any zone in Nigeria, with Lagos and Ogun alone having more urban development than the entire Southeast.
This was where he shot himself on the foot. Aside Lagos, the rest of the SW is a slum. I served in Abeokuta, the very capital of Ogun State and everywhere was unplanned - you'll see a few high-rise buildings mixed up with mud, dilapidated or rusted roof houses. I'm not even from the SE, to start with.
PoliticsRe: Posh Properties Owned By Atiku, Ekweremadu, Orji Kalu, Other Nigerians In Dubai by RenaissanceGuy:
Is this OP smart at all?? Everybody knows you're Tinubu supporter whom we all know is most likely the wealthiest politician alive today. So why throw stones at other thieves when you know they will easily point at your man-Friday??

When godfather fights godson in politics, it's to the advantage of the masses. Know this and give yourself peace.
FoodRe: Which Foodstuff Do You Still Consider Cheap Presently? (picture) by RenaissanceGuy:
thesicilian:
Did you not complain when it was 10k? Were you able to afford it then? Was there any one who was clapping for the government when fuel was 87 naira? Now you're missing 2015 because 2024 is biting you hard. In 2036 you'll still look back at 2024 and regret. It's always been like that. Nothing is cheap. All you can do is stay above the economy.
Fallacy. Unless you are less than 20 years old and can't remember how life was then, there's no way you'd be saying this. Nobody was complaining and everybody knew that it was cheap then. Can you compare it to now that people who now eat rice are seen as rich people?? There was absolute price stability for foodstuff for many years. Or have you forgotten that a bag of sachet water was sold for ₦50 for more than 15 years, but suddenly tripled in price within months that APC took over.
FoodRe: Which Foodstuff Do You Still Consider Cheap Presently? (picture) by RenaissanceGuy: 9:17pm On May 15, 2024
thesicilian:
Foodstuffs have never been cheap and will never be, but they're still all affordable.
Very true. A bag of rice that used to be around ₦10K in 2015 was very costly then, as only 2% of Nigerians could afford it then. Clap for yourself please.
PoliticsRe: Enugu Govt To Build 380-room Five-star Hotel Within 12 Months by RenaissanceGuy:
A state govt building hotel in 2024?? When will both state and the FG realise that business is better left for the private sector, whilst the govt provides the enabling environment through policies, loans and laws??
BusinessRe: After Binance, FG Bans Kucoin From Naira P2P Today by RenaissanceGuy: 4:25pm On May 15, 2024
ChristCee:
Educate me please. If people can't trade with naira directly, the next option is USD which is only readily available in black markets. We both know 90 percent of these crypto traders won't stop, rather they'll turn to the black market traders to get dollars. With increased purchase of the US dollar, what then is the benefit of the whole saga ?
The black marketers get their rate from these peer2peer crypto spots, which are heavily rigged by people who manipulate the system through placing buy orders at ridiculously high prices and then cancel it, in order to game the market, thereby skyrocketing the rate of naira to the dollar. The endgame is to make massive gains.
PoliticsRe: OPEC: Nigeria’s Oil Production Rose To 1.28m Bpd — Highest In Africa by RenaissanceGuy:
Celebrating backwardness. Our oil production used to be 2.1m barrels/day 7 years ago (https://pmnewsnigeria.com/2017/02/28/nigerias-oil-production-rises-2-1-million-bpd/) .
helinues:
If the news said our production is low, you would have celebrated right?

Being an opposition don't mean you people should be opposing every positive moves by this government. That na village opposition
I personally had and still have a little high hope that the current government would succeed, but we must continue to put them on their toes by constructive criticism and not the destructive praise-singing you're engaging in. If we're able to remind them that there was a time we were producing 2.1mb/d, they'd be challenged to even go up higher instead of them celebrating the current mediocre level.
