Politics › Re: Politicians’ Bizarre Empowerment Schemes by savcy(m): 2:11pm On Nov 28, 2020
It's no longer news the lack of political will among the ruling class to do anything about the raging poverty in the country. These people do not want the average Nigerian to escape poverty for political expedience. Any "empowerment" program they come up with is merely just playing to the gallery. The intent isn't to empower. People who had the heart to hoard palliatives?

God will save this country one day.
Politics › Re: Ahmed Zainab: Land Borders To Be Reopened Soon by savcy(m): 4:43pm On Nov 25, 2020
Good move. The economy has worsened since the closure was done. Closing the border was in good faith, but as most things Nigerian, it was unduly taken advantage of. Nigeria is probably the only country where any economic policy to aid local manufacturing ends up to the detriment of the masses. Imagine the cost of local rice soaring by more than 400% since the closure.

I also think that, Buhari's economic advisers are not up to date with the happenings of the Nigerian economy. They seem not to realise that the country doesn't have the economic infrastructure to support most of their policies. They simply just make them and hope for the best. Sad.

Mikehot:
yes every city has a ghetto but i don't think ph is humble to admit that, even it's citizens here kept saying they never knew such existed.


Maybe cos of the hype whenever you hear ph so much is been propagated with it

Btw those ghettos could be so much that it explains why ph is a dreadful city especially during elections
I don't think those who say they never knew such places existed in PH were feigning ignorance. I've been in PH for almost 11years now, and, in all my journey I've only ever gone past Spar Mall once. I have absolutely no idea what's beyond Hospital road. I live around Iwofe axis, and I earn my living, to the glory of God, around that area, and I don't think I've been to Trans-Amadi more than twice. Besides, "Bundu waterside" and Iloabuchi areas in PH, aren't places you want to live. Those places are really rough. People only run trade businesses over there, especially at Iloabuchi area. Below are photos I took from my rooftop as soon as I saw your comment. The quality is bad but they offer a glimpse of what I'm saying.

There are tons of areas in PH that looks even better than what the OP posted. I mean tons! If I enter only those small towns wey connect with Ada George road snap show you sef, you go know say PH try.

The rent here is ₦200k for a one bedroom apartment, and ₦350k for a two bedroom apartment. It's a relatively cheap place to live in PH.

The reasonable thing to do, if he didn't have the wherewithal to support his friend, was to tell him exactly the situation of things on his end and not go days/months without so much as picking up his friend's call. That's terrible from a supposed "friend".

Romance › Re: Breakup: What Was Your Ex's Excuse? by savcy(m): 11:58pm On Dec 04, 2019
Jewessgratitude:
Hmmm...see monitoring spirit���
Iet me tell you and everyone who cares to listen, I'm scared of men!

A little about me and I'm going to be sincere.

I was brought up in a good Christian home. Where you're taught to keep yourself for your husband. So all through my secondary I didn't date anyone.
It was years after secondary school before I went to college I said ok let me have a serious guy. I did and that was when I got disvirgined with hopes he would marry me but he messed up and that was it! For 3 years I went into withdrawal mode and never trusted men again. After a while I tried again in 2013, along the line a rich young pastor came but because I was with this poor guy I really loved, I told the pastor off ( he's married and relocated to The abroad now�) and this poor guy too messed up am I told him off too.

Now, since then other guys have been coming but ive never really seen one I feel for the way I felt for my first and last guy so I dont even give them the chance cos I dont like leading someone on knowing I dont feel anything for them. And i dont like forcing myself to love reason when the short man came briedfly, I wasn't bothered when he left.

Another thing is, I realise im more at peace without a relationship than when I was into one cos while in it, I'm always restless cos I'll be like, whats the other person doing that he shouldn't be doing and this silly things you worry about but when theres none, I have nothing to worry about and the days keep passing without really realising time is going but what can I do? Go pull a man to come and marry me?, or start going to clubs? which I never did and will never do.

What will be will be.

*laughs* there's this HM in one of the schools I teach, she'll always call me to her office and say, miss...you're beautiful, what really is the problem? Get someone now that you're still shinning and all that. And I'll be like what the hell hmhmhm.� she even tried talking me on tuesday again into warming up to the head teacher that the guy is a first class graduate bla, bla bla..hahahaaa... I'm not interested. When I see what I want, I'll know.

To cap it all up, I think the problem here is that I'm stuck with my ex like iv not been able to let go after I told him off. Though he's married but I still love him. I know with the right person, I'll get over him.

Like I said earlier, I'm scared of the kind of men we have these days so I'm waiting on God to do His thing. So dont be surprised. A lot has happened but most importantly I'm at peace with God and myself and will definitely find the right person soon.

Just had to let this out so all who have seen my age would stop worrying for me. I'm cool�. No worries cos Baba God gat my back anytime any day and he'll make things beautiful in His time. I can't come and kee myself�

Gracias.
I'm a bit puzzled. How can someone as intelligent (here I'm assuming you're probably emotionally intelligent) as you be yet so attached to a married ex? I expect you should have found a way to expunge that feeling from off your mind.

Also, do keep hoping on God. He'll sooner or later present you to your partner I'm sure.
Politics › Re: Reps Pass 2020 Budget For Second Reading by savcy(m): 7:01pm On Oct 10, 2019
So long as there won't be cases of padding to the budget, I wholeheartedly support its quick passage as unnecessary bickering and delay over its passage serves no one any good.

This is what the majority have all been craving that was missing in the last tenure.


God bless Nigeria.

Politics › Re: I’m Ashamed That I've Not Been Able To Pay Pensioners - Governor, Samuel Ortom by savcy(m): 11:37am On Sep 10, 2019
Nigeria public office holders will always give off the impression that doing "ordinary" things like remuneration of workers and pension payments are such difficult tasks to achieve.

Come to think of it, the Governor isn't being asked to come up with solutions to intricate public matters like job creation or better health care. The money he would be paying out, he would do next to nothing to get. All he would need to do is simply direct the agency responsible for the task of payment of pensions and there!

He even attempted to stir sympathy by saying he inherited a backlog of ₦10b plus in pension payments. Even if that's to sail, how has he fared in that regard since his time in office?

When one considers that all these things are happening when China is already aiming for the moon and Mars, the only conclusion is that Nigeria is doomed. But I know Nigeria shall be great.

IF people like Fani Kayode did their best to better the lot of this country when they had the chance, the emergence of the current government would probably not have happened. Cause and effect. They all led us down this path. All these are the consequences of their leadership, or the the lack of it.

The sealed envelope containing the
application should indicate at the top left hand corner the position sought. All
candidates should nominate three (3) referees who would also be required to forward
references on their behalf under confidential cover to the same address. Such
references should equally be received not later than 28th June, 2019.





The above statement was made on a job advertisement I saw somewhere. I'm interested and want to apply for it, but I don't know how my referees would forward their own references to the address on the job ad.

Please I need clarification.

You wait to see. Chinese are very smart. They will survive US onslaught and the US will pay dearly for it. When power is used with such arrogance as Trump has been going about it, adversaries unite, dig deep and bring out the best in them yet to be seen. The US is doing these to retain the technology gap between it and China but the naked and arrogant way it has gone about doing this will hurt the US. No empire has reigned forever, and the US will not be an exception. We hope that the war will be won without a resort to an arms conflict.

Arrogance and pride have always been at the very root of every collapsed empire.

NYSC › Re: Corpers Tear Gassed For Protesting Unpaid Allowances By INEC by savcy(m): 10:32pm On Apr 04, 2019
I can relate. I participated in the just concluded elections as a serving Corps member in Plateau State and I'll have to say that the NYSC DG must, as a matter of urgency, engage the leadership of INEC on the ill treatment meted out on Corps members during and after elections. It's puzzling that Corps members would have to lead a demonstration before stipends for their efforts will be paid them. It's not funny anymore. I remember how we were almost dispersed with these canisters, if not for God that took control of the situation, simply because the EO refused to release monies accrued to us which he had right there in his office.
Politics › Re: Nigerian Problems And Immediate Solution By Oluwaseyi Idowu by savcy(m): 10:35am On Apr 02, 2019
Despite being impressive, these ideas will result into further degradation of the economy. To be honest, many of your propositions are unrealistic. If we're to go ahead with, even, 30% of your posted ideas the level of hardship amongst the populace will rise to unprecedented levels. You are basically suggesting we hand our country over to foreign investors.

For instance, you suggested bringing in the Chinese to construct airports for us, and as a way of repaying the ensuing debt, we lease it out to them outright for a ten solid years. First, do you know what it cost to build a world standard airport like the Heathrows? Given the current revenue generated by our busiest airports, are you sure we'd be able to cover the spread in ten years? So, if we're unable to cover the spread what happens after?

Again, the minimum wage you proposed is beautiful but unrealistic too. Where would you get the money to finance that kind of minimum wage in a nation of over 150million people? Do you realize that with our current national earnings anything beyond N50k as MW would send our capital expenditure to zero? Even if the economy grows by 100% in the next 10 years we still will not be able to finance any MW that exceeds N70k. Sorry.

You seem to have thrown the main issues aside. Any change that doesn't deal with fundamentals will fail eventually. Our constitution is part of the fundamentals. That document should be the first port of call when effecting any meaningful change. The current one is anti-progress and serves only but a few. It is not a nationalistic constitution and as such it will make nonsense of any meaningful development we experience. We need a well thought out and patriotic legal document that will hold firm any effort we make to make progress or else, we'd simply be building castles in the sand.

Secondly, we must fight corruption to the barest minimum. Every single proposition you made up there will face a massive challenge when it comes face to face with the monster called corruption. We can't make progress when 70% of funds meant for a cause will be diverted to other cause outside its original cause. I'm amazed that the average Nigerian does not appreciate the level of hurt that corruption does to this nation. What's the use of pouring out money into sector after sector when the official who's supposed to monitor and enforce policy and ensure judicious use of funds would be the one to embezzle the said funds? Who's going to monitor the monitor? We must constitutionally kill corruption if we want any progress. Until we get to that point where a public official would be afraid to even think about embezzling a kobo in office, we've really not done much, I'm sorry. Do you know how much progress we would have made if our public officers were sincere with managing our finance even with our 'meagre' earnings currently?

We must take power off the exclusive list. That's the first place to start in any matter that concerns power improvements.
