Are you Outstandingmam:?
Is this your other moniker?

If not do not jump in to the middle to start asking silly questions If you do not understand the context

I never asked where the loan is coming from
I asked who is borrowing
They are different things
It's a public forum, where everyone is entitled to comment on another person's comment. You were sounding like you'd boxed them into a corner and I simply provided an evidence to counter your comment.

So what?
Then why still asking where the loan is coming from, as if the post said the builders would use their personal fund to construct the power plant??

You are making a baseless assumption
I asked a simple question who is the borrower?
Didn't you see this: ❝the Debt Providers: FBN Quest, Bank of Industry (BOI), Infra Credit❞ ??

Politics › Re: Emefiele Facing Gun, Ammunition Possession Charges — The Nation by RenaissanceGuy:
DSS is unarguably the most incompetent security agency in Nigeria. This was the same way they charged Dasuki, a former military officer for that matter, to court for possession of firearms and the case died, to their shame. DSS needs to be disbanded and their HQ demolished for being a source of shame to Nigeria. How many court cases have they won in the last 30 years? Maybe -3. Why can't Tinubu ask them to transfer this case to the EFCC before they bungle it and release the criminal to go back to enjoy his loot and forget the economic crimes he committed against 200m Nigerians??

This is not making sense. Forget palliatives and use the saved money for whatever infrastructure you want to use them for. It's the ogas at the top that'd share more than 70% of it amongst themselves.

Politics › Re: Do You Think Nigeria Will Ever Become As Developed As Any European Country? by RenaissanceGuy: 9:45am On Jul 12, 2023
Nigeria needs to divide. Population explosion, especially from the North, whilst economic activities remain largely stagnant, is the bane. Looks like our politicians are unable to manage such a large population as ours; so let's divide into at least 5 countries.

what natural resources do they have,when it comes to natural resourse nigeria has more ,us has zero resources what they have is man power with brain ,which is what nigeria lacks
It's not just manpower. US has the world's largest coal reserves which is used for power generation. They also have crude oil. In fact they currently have more 44bn barrels of reserves; though they bought some of them while some were locally harnessed.

US doesn't have anything aside population?? US that's the centre of world's technology and manufacturing has nothing??

How is population Nigeria's biggest problem?

Is Nigeria the most populous country in d world?

All these grammar because of NSA. The NSA remains an appointee of the President. He can be sacked anytime by the President.
Just own up that you have lost the argument.

Flathead8:
A northerner is still heading EFCC and DSS
Only northerners can fight corruption and insecurity. That's how the southerners are helping the northerners to feel like they own Nigeria or have more stake in Nigeria, and then later complain that northerners have taken over all FG civil service offices.

BTW, switch to a better moniker.

BabaRamota1980:
OP,
These are very valid points.

Along with your points on security/defense, FCT minister.

I think in the background of endorsements for candidates and competition to be President, Northerners negotiate certain positions in return for support and votes. Positions that are critical for their survival in the contract for nationhood.
It's nice to see somebody seeing through the same lens. Who says it's only the north who can produce the positions of defense minister and NSA at the same time? These are almost the most plum political appointments — they give it to themselves when they are in power and southerners also give it to them when they the southerners are in power.

24SEVEN:
Of what concern at this point in time, is the office of the NSA to hungry Nigerians. Tinubu came into power and the fuel price is on its way to N700 per litre, the exchange rate is has been N1,008 to £1, inflation in all sectors of the economy. The Electricity tariffs are sure to spike sooner. Hunger prevails with some people literally begging to eat. What concerns such people with who becomes the NSA.

I'm very sure you didn't complain about the Muslim/Muslim ticket that Tinubu rode on. You see nothing morally wrong in that. It's the office of the NSA that bothers you.
And do you know that it's geopolitical matters such as this that often lead to war in nations?? You think it's all about dollar value or hunger? Was it not because a VP was sacked that precipitated a war in South Sudan which is still ongoing today after more than 8 years? If we continue to avoid matters such as this under the guise that it doesn't change the price of rice or fuel, it'll finally tip over one day lead to avoidable conflagration. Was it the price of gari that caused the Nigerian civil war??

The Op who has created this thread to complain, is the only one that knows what is bothering him.

What matters to the masses (both in Southern and Northern Nigeria) is liveability.
Liveability is not all that there's in a country. If it's, how come some people in wealthy countries such as Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE, China, Hong Kong clamor, protest and even die for democracy, despite the fact that almost everyone is living in prosperity??
Politics › Re: How Southern People Sell Themselves Short Before The North by RenaissanceGuy(op):
If you also check who the defence ministers are during these administrations, they are also northerners. And instead of them to reciprocate the gesture during their own time, they trample on that and bring their fellow brothers to run the show.

The southerners are enslaving themselves, even without the input of the northerners. They have no blame.
Politics › How Southern People Sell Themselves Short Before The North by RenaissanceGuy(op): 10:14am On Jul 11, 2023
Caveat: This is NOT to incite, just to point out what I see as self-subjugation.

When southerners are presidents, their NSA (a very plum position that's almost equal to the position of a VP), is always a northerner:
Earnest Shonekan (S) — Ismaila Gwarzo (N)
Obasanjo (S) — Aliyu Mohammed Gusau (N)
Jonathan (S) — Andrew Azazi (S - 2 years), Sambo Dasuki (N - 3 years)
Tinubu (S) — Ribadu (N)
But during the tenure of a northern Head of State or President, he'll always choose a fellow northerner:
IBB (N) — Aliyu Mohammed Gusau (N)
Abacha (N) — Ismaila Gwarzo (N)
Abdulsalam (N) — Abdullahi Mohammed (N)
Yar'Adua (N) — Aliyu Mohammed Gusau (N)
Buhari (N) — Babagana Monguno (N)

We all know that all over the world, the position of defense and security appointments are a hotcake. When the southerners keep on showing the north that they are the only ones qualified to handle security/defence matter, do they have the right to turn around and accuse the north of playing kingmaker?
Politics › Re: Tinubu's Expected Ministerial List by RenaissanceGuy: 9:53am On Jul 11, 2023
If Tinubu gives defense minister to northerner after giving NSA to one of them, that means that the southerners have really considered themselves slaves to the north when it comes to security and military intelligence matters.

the traffic during election periods are always highest. Its normal for it to face a decline at this point in time.
What about front page not being populated with new topics until 8am when it used to be 6am?

Does Seun think that nobody can suddenly spring up to create an alternative and retire this site to the dustbin of history within three months? He doesn't seem to be taking it or the users seriously.
Politics › What's Happening to Nairaland? by RenaissanceGuy(op): 7:01pm On Jul 10, 2023
Who else has noticed that traffic to Nairaland, especially the politics section which records the highest traffic has deteriorated?

Before now, the average ad price per week on the politics used to average around ₦140K/week, but it's currently around ₦75K, because the ad prices are set to automate with corresponding traffic.
In fact, during the elections, the traffic was so much that it was approx ₦200K/week.

And also, Nairaland mod(s) used to populate the front page by around 6am everyday, but nowadays, you'll continue to see the last thread you saw the previous night until around 8am.

He's human first then a priest .


His sexual desires should also be taken care of which was what he was doing at the time death caught up with him.

Death happens to all at any time so there's nothing breaking or special about this news.

Judging him or gloating over this news is just low.

Priest is just his title. Nothing more !
In Christianity, premarital or extramarital sex is a grievous sin.

So slashing 50% off university fees and declaring free education in primary and secondary schools is what you deem as performance?? Reducing his state's already meagre revenue generation is not a wise thing to do. Why do Nigerians think that education has to be free, in the first place?? When you graduate and start working, will you be working for free??
