The report only confirmed that, in Nigeria, people help themselves because the government is nonexistent.
It is about the generosity of the people living in those countries, not about the governments' generosity. People are more generous in places where the governments are not doing their duties
I hope you really understood what you posted?
Exactly. What concerns me with govt? Nigerians are surely happy givers.
Kobojunkieee: What methodologies are those? Asking 150-something people to provide unverified answers to questions asked? Give me a break.
This is not your Oha or Ewedu type of stats. This is a universally accepted stats that did not just start this 2024. Hurray! to Nigerians,the happy givers. We wont lack because givers never lack. There is light at the end of the tunnel indeed.
The world's leading study on global generosity The existence of generosity and civil society is a constant in all societies. Our World Giving Index offers a unique insight into how people engage in social activities for the benefit of their communities and to champion the growth of global giving.
First published in the wake of the global financial crisis in 2010, this long-running study has given us the opportunity to look into the scope and nature of giving around the world. It looks at three aspects of giving behaviour and asks: have you done any of the following in the past month?
Helped a stranger, or someone you didn't know who needed help. Donated money to charity. Volunteered your time to an organisation.
BeardedmeatR: If you don't believe the news, tell us your version with facts.
Nobody believes the story because if it was not cooked up,it is the reality of the country for what you acquired for #5000 before to have jumped to #10,000. It is not a fresh news.It came out yesterday or so.
Bebigiby1: You call it "generous approvals" I call it theft.... Are these approvals legal....? You said "On allegations of giving generous approvals by faceless,nameless entities?..." Cardoso and other CBN executives implicated are not nameless or faceless as a simple Google search will tell who they are.... The moral burden lies on CBN to come clean with Nigerians and not the newspaper.....
The hatchet job was not refinely done by the so called journalist.Maybe he is not so intelligent. Wise and educated people have seen that it is just a mudslinging bit of news.
How much were the alleged increments before their increase taking into cognisance the issue of minimum wage?
Bebigiby1: Interesting, you call the report a cooked up story.... Why do you think the CBN spokesperson's phones were switched off when they tried to contact the bank....? Let the CBN governor defend himself or sue the newspaper if he has nothing to hide.... Do you think the newspaper has no hard evidence to guard against litigations before reporting the story....? The fact that it's been 24 hours and no official reply from CBN should tell you that Cardoso and his gang are culpable.... In saner climes the CBN governor should've resigned by now..... unfortunately this is a shameless government..... Nigerians should demand for resignation of Cardoso and other CBN executives....
lol On allegations of giving generous approvals by faceless,nameless entities? Let the journalist give names even one name. You just dont roll in the mud with pigs!
.OP and lie na like yansh and mess. We no see where Cardoso diverted 1 billion naira in the news,sir. Everything writtten is allegation by nobody,faceless,nameless entities,which shows that it is a cooked up story.
Gistmedia10: In a dramatic escalation of the #EndBadGovernance protests in Nigeria, the residence of Hon. Nazifi Sani, the federal representative for the Gumel/Maigatari/Sule-Tankarkar/Gagarwa constituency in Jigawa State, has been set ablaze by irate youths.
The protests, which have swept across the nation, are fueled by widespread grievances over economic hardship and a nationwide hunger crisis, which many attribute to poor government policies. The incident at Hon. Sani's residence occurred as youths expressed their anger and frustration over the misappropriation of funds.
Despite the imposition of curfews in several protest-affected states in northern Nigeria, and repeated calls for calm from authorities, the unrest persists. Protesters, particularly in the northern regions, continue to demand accountability and significant reforms. Many have expressed dissatisfaction with the president's recent address on August 4, 2024, claiming it failed to address their core demands.
As the #EndBadGovernance movement continues to gain momentum, the Nigerian government faces increasing pressure to respond to the demands of its citizens and implement meaningful changes.
Ofemannnu: Yes,that is the most sane thing to do now. Those are hoodlums who were lurking in the corner for the protest have hijacked it in a couple of states. It is best for Kaduna state and wherever there is violence to impose curfew now.
Some people will be held responsible for flouting court order and for the violence. The police have largely restrained themselves maximally. I hope they continue to keep their cool.
Everywhere calm. Shops,banks etc locked. Here at Ojota park,there is dancing with music blaring. Security everywhere. I can see some hoodlums hanging in corners.
Even some people against the protest hung banners signifying that they dont want destruction of lives and properties,that protesting is the protesters' constitutional right. Largely peaceful sha
The govt had become jittery and forced to do some positive things like grants and loans to students etc. Channels tv correspondent just relayed that there is not a single protester at Ojota.
And according to Arise news,some protesters have gathered in MKO Abiola stadium in Abuja.
Instead of you to go out for the protest,you hide under your bed with your keyboard. Watching Channels and Arise now. I think the protest is a massive flop. Well,the message has been received and it has made the govt jittery and forced them to do some things.
lol Najatu Mohammed,Lukman Salihu Najattu that was formerly in APC supporting Tinubu.When she heard that Buhari and his cabal were behind Atiku,she jumped ship and said that Tinubu is unable to hold a spoon talkless of holding biro to sign if he eventually becomes the president.
The title should have called them 'disgruntled losers'.
Goldmynemaniac: President Tinubu should come out on national television, tender an apology to Nigerians, thank them for their patience and cooperation so far...then announce his resignation!
By doing so he'll secure a place for himself in history and bow out with honor.
Nothing of the frantic efforts they're making will work to save the nation or his government now.
But once he does what I counsel, he'll see the citizens' anger fizzle out like a punctured balloon. Normalcy would return. The national mood would change from gloom to joy just like when an existential disaster is averted in movies, say an asteroid seconds away from colliding with Earth being routed away suddenly.
Just my 24 karat bullshit.
lol Tinubu will still be the best Nigerian president ever.He needs just a few days more for Nigerians to begin to feel easiness. Things are surely tough now. In a few days now,Nigerians will begin to thank God. HE is the Omnipotent.
