Politics section of Nairaland is a very terrible place.

FreeStuffsNG:
You are right about the subsidy which constitute a huge drain. I am referring to forex inflows since oil proceeds account for about 90% of our forex inflows. It's when you sell crude oil that you earn, the subsidy part will only deplete some part not all. But you're right and it's coming to an end soon as Dangote Refinery takes off.

For sure we would stop importing fuel but i'm not sure if FG will have the balls to remove subsidy. Let's not forget Dangote Refinery is located at Free Trade Zone, he will most definetly be selling his fuel in $$$ and not Naira.
Let's not forget he's owing a whooping $19billion, i read on twitter he's servicing his debt with $650m annually. This was a Project that was supposed to cost $9b when he started in 2014 ( i wonder how he sleeps at night). I'd be shocked if Dangote sells his fuel for anything below @ 400 naira per litre.

Kingpele:
Hahaha u see this billionaires in Nigeria that donate money any how fear them they have the worst kind of stingy spirit, someone donated 1billion to a fulani dullard during election but refused to forgive and forgot a landed properties his nephew acquired from his business, he could be lying against his nephews because he is a billionaire everyone believes him ,if he is a wise business man couldn't he have noticed the disappearance of the funds when they were working for him,or as he is suppose to be the richest man in the east can't his workers and most especially his own nephews be able to saved up money to aquire properties of their own or is he expecting them to remain his slaves forever, maybe he doing this because those boys are having little problem with him,he can dash billions to strangers but can't help his own family ...such men is dangerous ,the kind of money he claimed to have no one that bear EZEH in his clan suppose to suffer but most Africa billionaires are essentially greedy and stingy... billionaires outside Africa will rather donate their wealth to charity cause but Africa billionaires will rather use his billions to intimidate his people

These guys are not the first people to steal from Arthur Eze. People have been stealing from him from the 80's up till recently and instead of locking them up, he'll just fire them. We can start mentioning names here ( 1 of them spent over 100m on his birthday recently)

However rumour has it these guys crossed the rubicon and betrayed his trust, with one of them worth over 700m naira (a very conservative figure i'm told).

Also let's call a spade a spade, they stole (Thieves) from the man and weren't discreet about it

I have a friend going thru this same problem.

He's not shy though but he can't get a girlfriend because he's addicted to prostitutes. "ALL" his friends are all married, he once tried to avoid us but we just refused to go away cos we know he has a problem, infact he has given up avoiding us. Money is not his problem, he's very comfortable.

I'll tell you what i told him, Fast, Pray and stroll to the nearest National Psychiatric hospital and talk to a specialist. I hope you unlike my friend take this advise.

You will overcome

humility33:


But u can create excuses for people sha

See how u explained what u knew nothing about and even credit the coach for the assumed tactical discussion

I'd be shocked if GoodJoe isn't in the PR industry. He's good

If Peter Olayinka comes on to score. Sadiq fit no see space again oo

At this rate Olayinka no need score, he just needs to play well and it'll all over for Sadiq

IGBOSON1:


This idiotic post i just quoted is one of a myriad on here that are all part of the script! They come down to the south-east, commit murder and vandalism...then rush to social-media to blame IPOB/ESN! They hope this strategy would help turn Igbos against IPOB/ESN as well as 'justify' the terrosist tag they've pinned on IPOB/ESN to the int'l community!

Ibu an !Mb3c1Le.

IPOB and its armed unit ESN (baby Boko Haram) are destroying Igboland before our very eyes, i guess you're part of IPOB propaganda machinery. For petes' sake these people are not that smart, we have what they did during the EndSars protest as evidence they're not inteliigent at all. Most analysts predicted that ESN would turnout like this, notable mention Ike Obosi Osita Chidoka warned on Twitter Space sometime last year about Arming Non State Actors aka Unknown Gunmen.

By God's grace this thing you and your Ogas want to turn Anigbo into won't work.

shantti:
Can't we take up arms and fight these bloody ipob cowards. They aren't bold enough to fight the fulanis that are killing people in uzo uwani, but they are courageous enough to bully harmless enugu civilians. Ipob is a menace we need to eradicate. You don't bring war to your homestead, u take it to the land of ur enemies

Whoever came up with that Strategy has killed IPOB. It's shown that they didn't learn anything from MASSOB and i predict by 2025, IPOB will be as useless as MASSOB is now.

IPOB is committing suicide and funny enough the educated ones amongst them know this but it's late, also add to the fact that Buhari looks like a man who'll want Anigbo to be like North East but God no go gree.

Unfortunately Igboland will have to put up with this till 2023 when we'll get a leader that'll unite and not divide Nigeria by bringing everyone to a round table. A leader that'll give the security agencies ultimatum to go after these miscreants and the orders will be carried out.

God will help Igboland

Apart from the usual Igbo hate that have been the modus operandi here since 2015, i am happy some Igbos here are calling out IPOB.

To the genuine naive ones here, IPOB don't speak for Igbos.

These people sef!!! They wan try Uzodinma formula for Anambra. I suspect this is Malami's handwork.

Anyway, Willie and Soludo should visit Buhari ASAP & thank him for ensuring that there was free and fair elections, assure him of your everlasting loyalty & use that opportunity to talk with other members of the cabal.

Every day that tribunal will be Sitting, invite as many journalist, TV presenters like Maupe, Usoh, Abati, Rufai, etc (exaggeration ). Also hire loads of Buses, transport thousands of people to Ilorin every sitting day.

If APGA use the same morale, slogan ( Nke a bu nke anyi) & bring out a well known technocrat, they'll win Abia in 2023. Especially if Inec uses BVAS.

Very welcome development.

Like Oliver Twist, we want some more.

He should do same for Nnaji Park in New Haven and John Nwodo close Park.

ALso a law should be passed by State Assembly and signed by Governor that makes it a must for every new estate to have park/green space and also outlawing the cutting of trees without cogent reasons (in place of one tree cut, you plant 2) in the state

Oasis001:
Leave Rohr. Let him take the Team to Cameroon, he earned it and should be the one in charge.

Is he gonna reach Final or perhaps win it? Nothing is impossible. He has not breached any of the Clauses, thus he should still be in charge.

If Rohr is sacked now, Eagles gonna look disorganised and may eventually flop at the Tournament.

He may possibly fail at one of the clauses at the Tournament, an opportunity to kick him off before the Playoff.

I concur 100%.

Nigeria is broke, NFF is broke, there's no money to pay Rohr his salary arrears, no money to pay him off and certainly no money to get a good foreign coach (Please no one should mention hiring Local coaches).

Buhari, Emefiele and Min Of Finance will chase Sunday Dare and Pinnick away if they come to FEC meeting to ask for $$$ to hire a new coach and pay off Rohr.

It shocks me that people have not learnt their lessons since after MMM.

snoopz:
See profiling o, Nigeria is not ready to help the youth but they're ready to deal with any rich youth as if it's a crime to be young and rich, I dey always talk am say Nigeria is not good for youths but adults like maina ganduje Alison anyim accounts won't be flagged because their own fraud level is higher than they youths right?

don't want to believe this though, but if it's true they're only going to make the youths find another way.

Time for this [/b]kuda and other online banks[b] to start profiting

It's an order from CBN. Kuda and co will simply tow the same line.

authority2006:


Yeah, for trying to curb internet fraud among the age group notoriously knowing for online fraud? Buhari is going in 2023, the mess of a country you're creating for yourself will still be there for you and your kids.

For the love of God!!!! Is Crypto fraudulent
Please read about it, go to Youtube watch videos and if you have money pay professionals that'll teach you about it.

People are making Millions worldwide as Digital Mallams, Trading tokens, trading crypto currencies, Defi (future of banking), Gamefi, DAO's, etc.

Buhari, Emefiele and the co feudalists are trying to lock out Young Nigerians from building generational wealth, economic terrorism. In all this i pity Emefiele, his case will be worse than Diezani.

EagleNest:
To clean up Nigeria and the attraction to corruption will take extra-ordinary means. But it's doable.

The extraordinary means it'll take is the political will by President and State Governors to restructure the civil service Nationwide.

With IT alone, corruption will be reduced by 50% or even more in our civil service.

Focusmind:
I don't trust news coming from our anticorruption agencies. They like sensationalisation too much without any investigation. They know that Nigerians are so gullible with fake news. All these news would put them in a good light as if they are working.
See how EFCC is embarrassing themselves with Diezanni gold bra and millions of loots claimed to have recovered,yet they still couldn't convict her.

I don't take their news serious. They should do proper investigation like FBI and piece their findings together into a proper documents that could nail the culprits instead of all these media headlines.

I concur 100%.

I don't believe the story too.

Honda DC 2006

Please is your technician in Lagos?

If yes, which area?

Let the NASS pass State Police for the love of God.
In the SE, it has gotten to a stage where State and Local Police is the only thing that can stop these terrorists that are enforcing sit@home.

Kidandp:


Not like I am encouraging your agenda Lol but I will state the truth. He is actually not but he is from the South South, Delta State to be precise

Kidandp:
I attend the Church and I am not here to agree or disagree but point out some misinformation.

1. First of all full time Pastors are not permitted to have another job, yes some of them do side businesses and cash out but one of the oath taken was to give full attention to it

2. Pastoring in a Ministry like Winners transcends beyond the sunday mornings and few evenings you stated. You are having a laugh if you feel it starts and ends with just coming to the pulpit to preach.
Knowing a man like Bishop Oyedepo, you feel he will put anyone on full time salary if all they do is just come twice a week to speak for 45mins?

3. They are expected to report full time in the office from 5.30am when convenant hours of prayer starts till evening (so much for farming)

4. You seem to forget occassions like the 21 days annual prayer and fasting where for 21 days straight there are engaging all day, which farmer leaves their farmland for 3 weeks

5. You seem to forget 95% of them are family men with children, who within 3 years some even 1 or 2are whipped up from a particular location and sent to another. New rentage, school fees for new school, wife can only do a business (better off not getting a store, probably mobile kind)because of the moving around. The church only pays 50% of the rentage of the first year you move to a new place. The others are your problem

6. For smaller especially rural churches, ROI decided by Area Pastor might not be able to cater the needs, any additional needs come from your pocket. Depends on the location and district, the politics going on there can frustrate you.

7. Your congregational numbers are used to guage whether or not full time security is allowed. If it is a small church, full time security comes from your pocket. If you have none and you get robbed, replacement comes from your own pocket

8. My cousin was in a war torn area in Cameroon in 2018 due to heavy politics received no help from the district. He was not transferred for years, due to heavy politics, some pastors were transferred. He was living in lack, my dad here in Nigeria catered to him and his family

9. This is a crucial point, unless you are a pastor, you are not in a place to determine whether or not the salary is enough unless it is coming from a point that is not triggered by 'pre-conceived assumption' of wearing suit, coming to pulpit just twice a week, so everything is rosy and easy. You think running a big Ministry like LFC which is in sync to a large extent is a child's play?. The ministry is a wealthy one, this is a fact but that does not translate to wealthy Pastors. My former work place, company was rich, my bosses had houses in Washington DC but I a senior employee was living in peanuts. I thank Jesus everyday from taking me out of there.

Happy Sunday

My guess is your Cousin isn't from the South West?

Crossroad1:
Nothing stops a pastor from being an entrepreneur..
In fact, it seems entrepreneur are tailored for them cos they will enough time to focus..

Faith without work is a dead faith...
If I happens to be a pastor, I will go into large scale farming.. You can even take a loan from the church or they aid you..
The proceed can be used to feed needy church member and take care of your family conveniently....
When you make your money, other people's money no go enter your eye and you will be proud of yourself

I concur 100%

A calling without a Profession will turn you to a nuisance - Pastor Tunde Bakare

Just lost his son today to Bandits (Assassins).

Presidency is coming south

At this rate, I don't want to know who e go be.
It should.sha come south

Not gonna happen. The "sane" set of 66 Northern elders that literally gave Obasanjo power are old and don't have much power to insist on power rotation.

North has gone insane, they're now more power hungry than ever before in our History.

The only force that can stop this insanity is a United South but you and i know it's impossible.

Nigerians should reject this policy. This is just another avenue for Civil Servants and Politicians to embezzle funds.

God knows i support toll gates (except Lekki Toll gates) but we know that any toll collected by Govt agencies will be embezzled.

Instead why not concession these roads to Private companies and let FMW&H regulate and monitor them or better still give it back to states who'll now concession it to companies that'll Build and Operate Roads.

The aim is to restructure Nigeria, reduce Abuja powers.

dominique:
It was yesterday I was pondering the sudden steep gas prices when I remembered that the gas marketers enjoyed a 2 year tax holiday. The tax holiday has since elapsed and they have to resume paying taxes which of course will reflect on the price of the product. It happens everywhere in the world. I wish they didn't have to do it now that everything else is so expensive. There's no cheaper alternative of anything in this country

Exactly!!!! This isn't the right time.

Inflation = 18%

Food Inflation = 20%

Mind you there's this report that says Nigerians spend over 56% of their Income on food alone and the report was released about 2 or 3 years ago.... Infact i don weak to type

Good news. However, PDP must negotiate with Chris and Ugochukwu and settle this once and for all.


But still Anambra Esika

tensazangetsu20:
Na dont. The base level certifications are everywhere. Do cloud certifications instead. AWS, Azure and GCP or kubernetes and docker.

There are job opportunities for cloud certs holders in Nigeria?

Is it in high demand abroad and can cloud certs holders in Nigeria work remotely for companies abroad?

Thank you

I still remember how NOI, Sanusi, Diezani, etc held town hall meetings in all geopolitical zones explaining and literally begging Nigerians that we must end Fuel subsidy. Most Nigerians believed Opposition politicians and morally corrupt intellectuals that there was nothing like subsidy. Social media influencers were also paid to come and lie.

Ngwanu look at us about to buy fuel 380 per litre because NNPC have said there won't be money for FAAC for 3 months because of subsidy.

Nigeria committed suicide when we rejected subsidy removal in 2012.

Before i opened the thread, i knew i wouldn't see any South East state. These guys are now so predictable
