Business / Re: Ibadan Firm Exported Nine Billion Dollars Industrial Starch. by rockiedink(m): 5:38pm On Feb 19, 2016
So what this incompetent oaf at the CBN is saying is that this unnamed company did $9b in export sales...that's roughly equivalent to a third of the #BudgetOfYams that this present government proposed. So what figures did this company do in local sales? Or does he mean to say that the company sold it's entire starch production to export markets with nothing for local consumption.

Sometimes these people think all of us are illiterate and we don't understand basic economics and mathematics.

It's sad but even esteemed institutions like the CBN have resorted to cheap propaganda.

Well a proverb says even if I don't know you are lying to me, you will not be stupid enough to believe your own lie.

We are watching in 3D...

The greedy importers would still see the black market situation as an avenue to exploit. Cost of imported tyres on the rise, instead of them looking inwards on made in Nigeria tyres

Biko, tell us...

The previously appointed media aides aren't enough to change the perception of outsiders and build our image right You classify the call for the president to take more proactive actions about the economy mere noise right Am not a fan of the self acclaimed twitter senator, but what he said is the truth and all you could do is attack Ben Bruce rather than reflect on the point he raised...


Maybe you are not aware the economy tanking at this rate with no solution or direction in sight will affect everyone including you and here you are defending the baseless appointment of a media aide, one begins to wonder what special effect the newly appointed media aide will have on our economy...SMH

A negative one is the answer! As they will remove from the 'tashere' money wey we no get to buy Tolu official car, official house, official house boy, official house help official bed maker and warmer come pay him armed robbery salary and mind boggling emoluments join.

At N1.6m, I doubt your ability to get any of those vehicles you've listed as tokunbo...except perhaps the CR-V...but as Nigerian-used...yes.

If you have to pick an SUV, I'll advise a Toyota/Lexus...not because the others are inherently bad, but because the Toyota have a knack of being extremely rugged, do well even with abuse and generally easier to maintain.

If you want an SUV, go to a dealership, check all the cars they have in ground, see what you like, pay for it and drive it home. Shikena! Give yourself less stress.

Indian Head Ginger

This is a very sexy plant. Dazall grin

This is perennial shrub, very hardy with a truly, er.... UNIQUE looking flower. Very suggestive looking but I know you're all too mature to be making jokes right now grin. It likes Sun to medium shade and a moist soil (OF COURSE IT WOULD LIKE MOISTURE!! grin). It does well in centre pieces as it lasts long. It usually comes in red flowers as I've never seen any other colour. It looks nice when you plant a lot of them on a border.


So in short...what you're saying is...

It looks like a man's 'member'...

Hello all,
take a look at my mechanic's quote for parts for my Rav4 2003 version.

Shocks absorber 40k,
stab linkage 14k,
stabilizer rod 18k,
ball joint 25k

Can you confirm these prices for me?

Also, what could cause a stabilizer rod to break into two. This has happened twice to my car.

If you are in Lagos, stroll to Ladipo and window-shop...you could also pick up a few things and get contact nos...

Your stabiliser rod can shear for so many reasons...terrain, age, rust...It's really a variety of reasons

sultaan:


Not everyone is as experienced are you with these terms it a term that simply means lubrication services like oil change transmission service, greasing joints and bearing.

There is money in sales no question about that but the profit margin is greatly reduced by the sharp practices at the ports in such a way that genuine parts cannot compete with the fakes on the market. it makes no sense when your profit is a small fraction of paid duty and bribes.

Start ups require owner to be onsite and oversee progress make adjustments as needed proxies tend to run things down so the only option for some of us is to be vendors.

Bros, I know what a lube job is...

But in certain circumstances it can also mean something else...for example if you go to the sexuality section and mention that, it takes on a whole new meaning.

When I said that, it was tongue in cheek and yes...pun intended!
