I have been writing directly to you on the subject and I expect you to dispute my opinion, but you refuse and keep mentioning me when someone writes something that validates your bias.

How much was injected into the market and how long can such supply be sustained? What happens when the effect of the initial dollar glut wears out? Does Ubah and his fellow cabal members have enough dollars to sustain supply in the market or does Ubah have enough local substitutes to reduce demand for dollars (for imports)? What happens when all those who suspended imports and online purchases resume their activities due to the strong Naira?

***Modified***
There is now talk all over the place that Naira has depreciated again below N320/$
Some people do not know that correlation does not equal causation.
Just because what Ubah said seem to coincide with the fall, does not mean he caused or "did" it.

I thought apc Yoruba sycophants claim that it is impossible for the naira to go up within a month .?

I keep saying it untill e remove tribalism from us we will be going round the circle
And I thought Igbo IPOD Thugs said Buhari and Kemi Adeosun are responsible for the unofficial slide in the Naira, when greedy black market speculators were actually responsible.

I keep saying it, until We (Most especially your types) remove tribalism from our national views, then we will be going around in circles. undecided

dunkem21:
..All hail Ifeanyichukwu Uba .. grin
I thought people said that the free fall of dollar is connected to the fall in oil price .. huh
You and your fellow mumus that liked ur post are DUMB
Of course the fall in in Oil prices has a lot to do with the slide in the value of the Naira, it is the same story in other commodity exporting countries Canada, Russia, Venezuela etc. But in Nigeria, silly cabals making undue profit in the underground parallel market sector made it even worse.
That is why even this new exchange rate of 250 is still well below the official exchange rate of 199. And until Oil prices rise again, it will never reach pre oil crash exchange levels. Inugo?

Oh, and it is Free fall of Naira , not free fall of Dollar.

Health › Ebonyi Tops In VVF/ Vaginal Fistula Disease Cases Nationwide - USAID by scholes0(op): 4:02am On Feb 24, 2016

Abakaliki — The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) yesterday said over 12,000 women are afflicted with Vesico Viginal Fistula (VVF) in Nigeria, with[b] Ebonyi State having the highest of over 3,000 cases.[/b]

According to the Federal Ministry of Health, between 500,000 and 1,000,000 women/girls are living with VVF, and an estimate of up to 80,000 new cases are recorded annually. The maternal mortality ratio in Nigeria remains unacceptably high; adding that Nigeria contributing about 2.5% of the global population bears 10% of the global burden of maternal mortality and 40% of the global burden of obstetric fistula.
http://sunnewsonline.com/new/vvf-the-silent-scourge-alienating-women-of-reproductive-age/
USAID Deputy Mission Director, Aler Grubbs, who stated this in Abakaliki while handing over hospital equipment worth N47million to the Ebonyi State government, said the disease was ravaging women in Nigeria.

She maintained that VVF is treatable and preventable as over 10,000 victims had been treated in the state and other parts of the country.
She pointed out that over 450 doctors had been trained in the area of VVF surgery, adding that USAID would continue to partner with Ebonyi to eradication the disease.

Vesicovaginal Fistula, or VVF, is an abnormal fistulous tract extending between the bladder (or vesico) and the vagina that allows the continuous involuntary discharge of urine into the vaginal vault, leading to an uncontrollable release of urine

Christianity Etc › Re: To The Yorubas "Stop Praising Olorun, He Is Not The Christian God" by scholes0(m): 11:00pm On Feb 20, 2016
Olodumare, Olofi and Olorun are Yoruba manifestations of the Supreme God.
Note: These is not the God in the bible, which is a jewish tradition. Their own God is Jehovah or Yahweh.

Also Esu is not Satan or Shaytan.
Esu is the Yoruba conduit God between The realm of the Gods and the Realm of man, while shaytan is the Jewish/Arab 'Anti-God" character.....

Goodboiyy:
Olu to me is an ilaje language, Cous Yoruba don't usually use it , Like i always say the ilaje re mixture of Edo and Yoruba, So the word might originate from benin then incooperared into the Itsekiri/ilaje Language.. hope u nw see y i say ilaje aint yoruba's ? grin grin

cc: Onuwaje, fratermathy long tym oo
lol, goodboiyy my friend, you are very funny.
Olu is perhaps one of the commonest Yoruba words out there... what do you think names like Olumide, Olu Maintain, Olusola and words like Oluwa means?
The king of Epe and Agege in Lagos are known as the Olu of Agege and Epe
While this man below is the Olu of Ilaro in Ogun state. There are many more examples like that, scattered all over Yorubaland, from Togo to Ifon and Sobe on the Osse River.

[img]http://citypeoplemag.files./2012/09/new-olu-of-liaro.jpg[/img]

Of course, there are also the Olus of the Ilaje Yoruba Kingdoms. Like the Olugbo of Ugbo.
Goodboiyy, both the words Oba and Olu, have nothing to do with the Binis.... you people might have borrowed a lot of words from Edo into your substrate Yoruba original vocabulary, but trust me, Olu is not one of them.

Culture › Re: Why Do People Speak Yoruba And Use English As Sms by scholes0(m): 5:58pm On Feb 19, 2016
People do text in Yoruba, just that it isn't as common as English text.
Because Yoruba language is not official in Nigeria, people see no need of making "formal" communications in it.
If it were to be Official, the opposite would have been the case.... Like you rightly said, Most people speak the language well but do not text in it.
In places like Tanzania where Swahili is official, people do almost everything in Swahili including texting.

I felt something isn't right about the CONFAB....... instead of packing all kogi state into SW along Kwara I think they should merge all Ekiti kwara with Ekiti state and merge Kogi west with Kwara and leave the rest part of Kogi(east and central) in the NC and they should be replace with Edo state. ....
I think this we be good. for SW...
