Iran will lose...
And the West wanted this to happen so they can cripple Iran... And Iran fall for it.
Recall when Major General Qassem Soleimani died in a US drone strike in 2020. Iran was cautioned never to confront US. The attempt to fold them up failed. Now the Israel war will make it easy for the west to act!

You forgot Iran retaliated in spite of Trump's threat to hit back at them. They launched missiles at US bases which the US said injured more than a hundred soldiers and destroyed other structures. Iran is not a coward like you want to portray them and war is not something to wish for.

Ordinary transformer we cannot manufacture. We prefer to keep on throwing our scarce forex away instead of manufacturing these products here.

If you want peaceful secession, see your senator to pass the requesite rules
Also, why did you have to be so abusive? I don't recall abusing you or questioning your intelligence, so why abuse me.
And don't deny it.

No, I didn't insult you. I only asked you to do a self-assessment of your own comment.
First: you wrote senators instead of lawmakers (comprising of senators and Reps members)
Second: you wrote "pass the requisite rules" instead of "amend the Constitution"
Third and the most important: Which country in the world provides for a secession clause in its own Constitution??

What's the intelligence rating of this comment? Judge it yourself.

SeeWahala:
They took it from N700 to N1,900 then brought it back down halfway to N1,000
And they want to use it to brag of an achievement?

And did they say that it won't go down further??

Slytiger:
its a suade shoe.

Are there no swede polish??

We all know that, though not necessarily by the points you've raised. Iraq, heavily supported by the US, couldn't defeat Iran in the Iraq-Iran war that lasted for nearly 9 years in the 1980s.

advanceDNA:
U just want to power to delete the comment of anyone u don't agree with or doesn't agree with you.......and thats not fair

What are you saying sef? Are you not on Facebook or Twitter and don't you see how their block/mute/hide-comment button work? Even at the moment, what you just said is already a feature of Nairaland; the only thing is that you'll have to continue to do that every time you see the person's comment, instead of just muting the person once and not see their comments again until you decide to unmute them again.

This man is a hard worker. I'm only concerned that we're relying on the UN to come design city plan for us.

MrLibrarian:
this life we're living by grace oh.
I'm actually guilty of this.

Are you going to quit from tonight or you want to keep on "living by grace" like that man may have also said in the past??

The stability we need today is economic stability. Let's begin that by venturing into large-scale agriculture instead of the current 18th century cutlass and hoe type we're still practicing today. How can a small Ukraine be supplying wheat to the whole of Africa and we're not doing anything about that?? Imagine Zimbabwe president begging for $2b to feed his citizens. When you have land??

The way Reno uses any means to venerate Islam always smacks of fear.

Nbotee:
First things first, they have abandoned the naira floatation and reverted to using dollar from the foreign reserves to subsidise dollar rates to BDCs.

Tell us how you know they're subsidizing the dollar with our reserve. When it was being done by Emefiele, official price of dollar was around ₦465 while the black market rate was about ₦700, meaning that the defending of the naira using the reserves wasn't even working. Now that the black market rate is even lower than the official price, how are they subsidizing it??

On Binance two days ago, it was around ₦1,058 when CBN was selling theirs for ₦1,101.

mrvitalis:
Solar powered borehole is at risk of being stolen
The main motive is water clean water, this is the cheaper n most financially effective method

Budget was 1 million

If u can come up with a better borehole for 1 million I give you 2 million

Everything was embellished in quackery. Borehole tap-points are always beautified and protected from wearing away by plastering the wall and the floor with tiles. No single tile in all of the boreholes Obi has being donating.

NLFPMOD, come and see

The only beautiful places in Lagos are the business districts housing banks and big multinationals. Aside that, Lagos is an eyesore. The residential areas do not deserve to be in a place called Lagos.

Seun, Nlfpmod, this thread is a misinformation. The amounts quoted here are actually what the US is owing these countries and not the other way around.

odinaccess:
More charges to come but where is the person he works for because a CBN governor cannot be working for himself, it's about time this immunity clause is removed from our presidency ,in other countries they jail Thier ex presidents if found guilty of any crime

And who told you that ex-presidents have criminal immunity??

Whoever advised Peter Obi to be constructing those 16th century boreholes is seriously de-marketing him.

She most likely had already pressed all the buttons before embarking on the journey. So it's not a surprise to her.

Ordinary renovation of a conference center, it has to be a "foreign company" to carry it out. When are we going to deliver ourselves from this self-imposed mental slavery??

As far back as 1918, almost every inch of Russia was already using electricity. It's 2024 and Africans are still relying on America, China and Europe to construct 20MW power plants for them.

how do you know which band one is placed on by the Power companies?

Kukutenla:
Which managed float took naira from N400 to over N1500 under seven months
You must have been under a rock when official rates was at 1500 and parallel rates was at 1800. The rates did not converge under Emefiele but they were largely stable and predictable.
You don't need to devalue before your rates converge. That was a horrendous mistake that distorted the market and eroded the purchasing power of Nigerians.
It's not about naysayers. That's the point you political hillbillies usually fail to understand

Economy is not a political game. The naira is at over a 1000naira after losing over 300% of its value under a year is not good news to anyone

So, in all of this, you're angry that the dollar rate has gone from 1,900 to 1,100 and poised to go down further??

Poor arrangement. How can millennials be born before 2000??

Since Police have decided to turn a blind eye to Bobrisky, EFCC decided to step in out of moral prodding.

They have yet to refund me. Let me wait till 11th April now that I've confirmed that I'm on Band B.

shortgun:
A banker told me the Central Bank of Nigeria maintains a log where the names of Nigerians exempted from accessing loans from banks or recieving grants from the government are recorded.
It doesn't matter whether you have defaulted in repayments of any loan or grants before or not,
the viability of your proposed venture doesn't matter either.
someone will just insert your details in that register and you will be automatically flagged as ineligible to receive any loan from any bank in the Country or any grant from the government no matter how many times you apply or from how many banks you apply from.
The level of wickedness orchestrated in this country is satanic

Complete balderdash. I hope you are not trying to tell us those people are from a particular tribe, because that's what some of you are known for.

Timoleon:
You are the one who is spreading propaganda.
USA NATO went into Iraq to save the people from sadam's oppression, the result was that USA created military bases in the oil regions. Shipping out oil steadily unquestioned
USA flies in to save syrians from a civil it orchestrated and sponsors. Today it occupies a third of Syria and yes that third is the oil and wheat producing area if Syria
NATO again flies into Libya to rescue the people from their leader, a few years later, British petroleum and she'll gets control of Libyan oil.
My sincere hope is that you are getting paid for spreading propaganda.

Did US allies in persons of the presidents of Yemen, Egypt, Tunisia not lose their offices due to the protests that engulfed the Arab nations in 2011? I'm not saying America did not have grudge against Gaddafi due to many reasons including the bombing of Panam flight and several others, but singling out his suggestion for the creation of a united States of Africa as the reason he died in a war, doesn't fit in.

"Valued at over $200 million, according to Onwuanibe, the Landmark site is home to over 80 businesses and provides more than 4,000 direct jobs. It also generates over 2 billion Naira ($1.5 million) in annual tax revenue" They’re prepared to lose $1.5 million annually in tax and 4000 jobs in these hard times. Why, because Tinubu and his all Yoruba advisers are real dullards who will not stop until they see the country in ruins. Even the CNN reporter is shocked! Funny thing there is, they think they’re dealing with the Igbos, but I bet over 50% of those 4000 jobs sent into the unemployment market will be Yoruba.

If you knew the caliber of structures America tears down to build new structures, you'll see that this is moi-moi. If White House needs to be demolished and relocated for a very important road line like this Lagos-Calabar road, they'll do it! One of the reasons Nigerian towns and cities are so jaga jaga is due to the lack of willingness to demolish structures to align with earlier or new city-plan layouts.
