PoliticsRe: DSS Quizzes Sheikh Auwal Shariff For Criticizing Tinubu Over Hardship by shortgun(m): 11:32am On Feb 13, 2024

That is a hypocritical awakening (if truly there's one). They kept silent all through the mismanagement and profligacy of their son Buhari's 8 year tenure.
Emir Sanusi's repeated warnings (despite being a northerner) were relegated to the backwaters and regarded as the rantings of a disgruntled critic.
Y'all from the three regions of the lower Niger better understand how the game is played.... Stop cutting your nose to spite your face. Learn to protect your own by not hanging him out to dry irrespective of your hatred for him, his politics and your love for his opponent from the same south (your beloved). Don't set a precedence that'll come back to bite you in the arse. And if you think your misguided opposition to anything BAT will lead to a political crisis that will pave the way for the emergence of your rising sun utopia, you have another think coming.
was Bola Ahmed Tinubu not the most toxic critic of Goodluck Jonathans administration?
Did he not sponsor countless protests against Jonathans policies?
Was Good luck Jonathan a northern Muslim president?
Did Tinubu saw anything Good in Jonathan or Obasanjo's Administration?

PoliticsRe: DSS Quizzes Sheikh Auwal Shariff For Criticizing Tinubu Over Hardship by shortgun(m):
The awakening taking place in Northern Nigeria is heart warming. Tinubu has succeeded in uniting the northern Christians and Muslims with bad Governance and mismanagement of the economy, they have now realised that bad leadership affects everyone irrespective of their faith.
Gone are the days when Northerners are deceived in the name of religion by their religious and political leaders and told to support candidates on religious grounds. Northern Muslims have become increasingly vocal about elections not being an Islamic principle but a manipulative concept that keeps them impoverished.

Modified:
Northerners do not oppose a Southern Nigeria presidency rather it's Southerners who fights a president from Southen Nigeria.
Was Bola Ahmed Tinubu not the most toxic critic of Jonathans presidency?....a follow southerner?
Bola Ahmed Tinubu sponsored countless protests against the policies of Jonathans administration including subsidy removal.
Bola Ahmed Tinubu ensured Jonathan was removed from office in 2015...
Was Jonathan a Northern Muslim president?
Or is Tinubu not a Southerner?

It's a widely acknowledged fact that good fortune seems to accompany Peter Obi wherever he goes, just like how a man's shadow sticks with him wherever he goes.
The Nigerian national football team clinched victory in a challenging match against South Africa, when Peter Obi was in Ivory Coast, lending his support and transferring his good luck to the team.
Had he been present today, the Super Eagles would likely have emerged victorious.


On the flip side, Tinubu seems to attract misfortune wherever he ventures and with anything he touches, stifling progress and extinguishing any glimmer of hope. angry angry

Don't shift the goal post. Your earlier comment suggested you had a grasp of the subject matter, let's focus on that.
My answer is obviously yes hence the examples I provided.
If imported cement is cheaper than our locally produced cement what makes you think imported crude oil won't be cheaper for Dangote than local crude?


I hope you're not suggesting that you believe every imported item should inevitably be more expensive than its locally-produced equivalent

This is not true, the refinery was initially designed specifically for refining Nigerian crude, it will have to be modified to process crude from other sources.

Hmmm, writing so much trash with arrogance and nativity, no surprised anyways, you have your target audience. To make you and your audience understand the jargons you cooked there, I'll ask you this question in a layman's term. Assuming your assertion was true, do you really think sourcing for forex from foreign banks, at high interest rates by Dangote in order to buy from the US is a cheaper or better alternative than buying from the Nigerian government? Not even considering the cost of frieght and other logistics.
Dude, you've only succeeded in confusing more like minded people like you.
Imported cement is cheaper than Nigerian cement, same thing with rice, poultry, fish e.t.c

Sourcing crude oil from USA can never be cheaper regardless of the bottlenecks in domestic transactions. Can't sleep 2AM. Damn
Only if you know the amount demanded for freight costs alone.
PoliticsThe Real Reason Dangote Abandoned Nigeria's Crude Oil by shortgun(op):
I laughed very hard when Reno the dumbo posted that the reason Dangote is getting Crude oil outside the shores of Nigeria for his refinery in Lagos was because Nigeria's crude oil have already been contracted far into the future. And we have a quota from OPEC.... grin grin
As usual, many fell for his senseless, baseless and nonsensical assertions without bothering to verify or ask critical questions like.
How will a refinery that was conceptualized,designed and built to refine Nigerian crude oil not have adequate provisions for Nigerian crude oil supply?


Well, the real gist and the crux of the matter is that the federal government refused to accept naira payments for crude oil sales to Dangote refinery, insisting that Dangote pay only in dollars. Despite Dangote's reservations about the government's motive for requesting foreign currency in a domestic transaction where naira should be the only legal tender , the federal government remained adamant, demanding payment solely in dollars.
Also, the federal government mandated that Dangote Refinery cover the freight costs for vessels selected by government cronies, equivalent to the rates charged by overseas vessels, along with port charges and landing costs—all payable in dollars.


After crunching the numbers , the management of Dangote Refinery concluded that sourcing crude oil from outside Nigeria from far away USA would result in lower costs. Thus, they decided to abandon the Nigerian crude, leaving it for Tinubu and his cronies to drink. grin grin grin

Tinubu minions have flooded this thread with their biased and trash analyses again just as they did when naira was devalued by Tinubu and plunged Nigerians into deeper poverty.
Tinubu and his cronies don't have the nation's best interests at heart; their primary focus is to mop up all incoming foreign currency for themselves, which ultimately harms the value of the naira.
Basic economics details how scarcity will increase demand.....
Nowhere in the world does a government forcibly convert citizens' currency, especially when it's been declared.

Super Eagles wingback, Ola Aina has reacted to his penalty shootout miss against South Africa’s Bafana Bafana in the ongoing 2023 Africa Cup of Nations semi-finals.

On Wednesday night, Nigeria defeated South Africa 4-2 in a penalty shootout to get to the AFCON final.
The semi-final match finished in a 1-1 stalemate after 120 minutes.
Aina missed his spot-kick during the shootout, kicking the ball over the crossbar.


However, Stanley Nwabali made two saves to ensure Jose Peseiro’s side advanced to the final.
Terem Moffi, Kenneth Omeruo, William Troost-Ekong, and Kelechi Iheanacho each scored a penalty.


Reacting in a video after the game, Ola Aina said, “these boys saved me. I don’t care.”
