Do you even understand the term independent means? He was discussing issues of economics amongst other government officials yet you are yapping about what now? Do you think the government just spew directives willy nilly at CBN?

As he told you, CBN is independent. That answers the question. No one can help you beyond that.

You are fond of asking kindergaten level questions thinking you are smart, no one here should have to pay for your lack of attention to details during your formative years. Go back to school and stop derailing threads where matured people are discussing matters of national importance grin

CareerRe: Why People Who Earn Less Than You Achieve More Than You by Shikena(m): 3:49pm On Oct 11, 2021
Spot on. It has never been about how much you earn, it's all about how much you spend or how well you spend. Your spending is the key.

Is the bulk of your spending done on
1 - 'waste' (chop life, party etc),
2 - sustain (bills, survival etc) or
3 - grow (investments, education, career, business, savings, support a focused person's dream etc)?

You can earn 300k a month and still be way poorer than someone earning 150k in the long run if you don't have a lot going on in the growth category.

You learn fast the difference between emotional thinking and rational thinking.
They don't have time for stories. You also learn why it's only the poor that call people stingy, they don't have that word in their dictionary. They know the value of every dime spent or wasted today and the impact on your tomorrow.

You are shifting the goalpost to suit your submission grin .

Now go back to the topic of discussion and read again then come back and read your own comment.
Also, re-read all my previous posts, compare them with the original topic, and figure it out. Focus is important in a debate. This is about marriage being an achievement or not.
omooba969:
I clearly see where y'all are missing it though. Being married (adjective) is different from marriage (noun), these are two different things. Whether or not the union lasts is contextual.

I maintain that being married is an achievement, whatever you do with your marriage is another subject entirely.

Now, go back to my initial comment and figure it out.

Thanks
CelebritiesRe: Prettymike: Marriage Is A High Achievement by Shikena(m): 9:40pm On Oct 10, 2021
Bros, you are the one failing to get it. This is simple.
Look at your example again, a degree is an achievement! You cannot END it! It confers a permanent status of a graduate.
Your marriage can end NOW, at will! A married person today can be unmarried tomorrow, it is not a theory it is reality and it is called divorce (Bill Gates, and hundreds of thousands all over the world). It is not an achievement, otherwise divorce should also be an achievement from some people's perspective. A shoemaker can meet an orange seller today and then get married tomorrow with two witnesses and life goes on. It's a big deal for some as it took several years to decide on it and for others it is no big deal. However, your degree is a big deal! You can't just wake up today and say you are getting a degree next week. A degree is an achievement, a marriage is not.


omooba969:
Most of you don't gerrit. smiley

I repeat, simply getting married is an achievement but what you do with your marriage or whatever happens in your marriage is another subject entirely.

We have many graduates around and their respective degrees is an achievement. What you do with your certificate or how you apply yourself is another subject entirely.

Hope you gerrit.
CelebritiesRe: Prettymike: Marriage Is A High Achievement by Shikena(m): 9:15pm On Oct 10, 2021
omooba969:
I need to refer you back to the meaning of achievement.
Achievement go plenty by that definition. Even you logging on to Nairaland to post this message is an achievement if you look at it loosely that way without critical analysis grin

xynerise:
Marriage to someone that will give you peace of mind. Not every marriage is an "achievement". Some will destabilise you
Exactly, that's why I said only a 'successful mariage' is an achievement. Registering your business with the government, setting up shot etc is not an achievement if the business folds up in two years leaving you with huge debt. A successful business however, is an achievement.

omooba969:
Simply getting married is an achievement please, you need to ask those who had dated for almost a decade only to be dropped in the last minute.
It is not! It is emphatically not an achievement. You can pick anybody and get married. My gateman is married to two beautiful ladies, he got the second one during the lockdown grin .

Can't lie he's right on this , cause the amount of crack head ladies and gents on these streets is
so alarmingg for someone to find you worthy to even think of spending the rest of their lives with you.
You can get married within a week if you really want that, what comes out of the union is another matter entirely, and that's what determines achievement grin .

At a time where everywhere is tensed the elderly man shud treat carefully, soldiers are not happy losing colleagues. You can't wear cloth with Boko haram flag or inscriptions in front of soldiers except you want to touch their wound. This is not time to display unnecessarily. What about if they mistakenly gun him down for IPOB.
Good point.

In the face of gun? Please forget that Igbo man no dey fear Naija comedians nonsense... I have seen several grown as$ Igbo men pick race like Usain Bolt when the condition is unfavorable. Na only goats no dey fear and they end up as pepper soup. What Baba Chiwetalu did there na tactical retreat - na indirect begging and appeal in the face of gun grin
osuofia2:
the actor was trying to prove to the Nigerian army that the cloth he was wearing has nothing to do with Biafra.

He said he was just wearing a colourful cloth with a sun on it and it had nothing to do with Biafra, adding that he was very educated and he knows what he is saying.

Actually, I feel Igbos and Fulani's are the same sha.

They are both terrorist sympathizers but Igbo are open about it, they don't hide the fact that they are terrorists
I also feel that they are kinda similar in many ways, but terrorism? I don't think so.

CultureRe: Why Alaafin Of Oyo And Aare Ona Kakanfo Can't Stay Together- Gani Adams by Shikena(m):
Praktikals:
It is not by size. Alaafin has never been ranked higher than Ooni. The present Alaafin just likes distorting history to massage his own ego. Even you, my friend, cannot argue that Ooni is more influencial than Alaafin today
In the pics below, you can see the Ooni right beside the queen and alaafin is on the extreme side. It is an open secret that Alaafin deliberately avoids any outing with other yoruba kings because all of them must queue behind Ooni.
Pictures? You want me to post Ooni bowing to Tinubu abi? grin

Fact: No Ooni ever ruled any nation in history. Just the town of Ile-ife. Shikena!
*Alaafins never queued behind any king in the days of old when traditions of rulership were established so that's an impossibility as there was no one to queue behind, they won't start today. Alaafin means Alaafin, a royalty, not spiritualist, digest that as a Yorubaman wink

This man is Aare ona kakanfo of Oyo town. Only Ooni can give a title that will be recognised throughout yoruba land. And to the mods that always ban me for expressing my views, I have plenty moniker on nairaland tongue
Provide historical evidence. Ooni is the leader of a small town in today's Osun State with no influence even in nearby Modakeke - no Ooni ever experienced ruling a real nation grin .
