He who refuses to learn from history is bound to repeat the same mistake.

If Nigeria did not learn from Yar Adua in 2007 - 10, how will they learn in 2015 or 2027

The people deserve what they tolerate.

That ripping culture is a mystery to me. Nigerian beggars are even more honorable about it.

Na oyinbo people rinse corruption, call am another thing 🤡

They won't pay their workers well, they expect the customers to pay for their own negligence as employers. They have no shame that they have even institutionalized it into the payment system. They have almost made it impossible to remove it. What a rip off! Forced gratitude.

Who is counseling father and who is he listening to? Start from there.

Edun reportedly took a different route. In engagements with global financial institutions the World Bank, the IMF, and other multilateral partners he is said to have presented figures that reflected economic realities rather than political optimism. In doing so, he allegedly sought to distance himself from what he considered financial propaganda built on numbers “beyond manipulation.”

Na statistics we go chop

Exceed15:
Wike should be resting by now and enjoy wealth he has gathered. He keeps fighting people everywhere which is not good for his health. May he receive sense before it's too late.

Riches and wealth aren't the same thing

Dogalmighty17:
And the president can't call him to order? Truly Tinubu is weak.

Jonathan the weakling asked his Ministers to resign if they wanted to contest in the next elections and join politics.

Tinubu the strongman cannot reign in his Ministers to resign if they want to face politics.

Life is wonderful. None of Obasanjo's Ministers dare play politics when he was the Boss. You don't need to go far to know who gives Wike the relevance. A president who is more interested in politics than governance.

President Goodluck Jonathan officially instructed his ministers with political ambitions for the 2015 general elections to resign on October 15, 2014.
During a Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting on that date, he directed those planning to contest for elective offices to submit their resignation letters by October 20, 2014.

Key details regarding this event include:

The Valedictory Session: A valedictory session was held on October 15 for seven ministers who had indicated they would be leaving to pursue governorship bids.


The Ministers Involved: The seven ministers who resigned following this directive included Nyesom Wike (Education), Musiliu Obanikoro (Defence), Labaran Maku (Information), Samuel Ortom (Trade), Emeka Wogu (Labour), Onyebuchi Chukwu (Health), and Darius Ishaku (Niger Delta).


Reason for Resignation: The directive was issued to ensure that government officials did not use state resources or machinery to fund or influence their personal political campaigns for the upcoming 2015 elections.

Earlier in the same year, on February 12, 2014, President Jonathan had also accepted the resignations of four other ministers, some of whom were reportedly leaving to further their own political interests.

BlakKluKluxKlan:
He is wasting his life away.
In addition, he lacks the needed maturity to maintain a marriage given his performances at work.

A man is never old to marry. Men of the past used to marry at 16-19 so what's the big deal. His personal life is not necessarily the same as work life. How many times did FFK marry? How many times did his colleague Abati marry? So if it's about maturity, they would not marry more than 1x. Mr Buhari married and had children, yet his wife was telling us outside people were trying to spoil their union and he believed it.

Let him be. His life, his business.

This is why ADC was a better party for Obi to port to because of those who founded it. I am not a fan of these politicians but having Atiku, David Mark, Aregbesola and their types behind ADC was a strong statement because in the other parties, there are weaklings.

We were made to believe Atiku was the problem of PDP but one year after he left, the problems are not resolved. Jonathan's presence doesn't make any difference. Obasanjo left the party a long time ago. They no longer respect the party and they have been compromised in that party.

When poverty is high, people's prices are very cheap and that is what is happening in all these parties.

It is called body language. Visual communication. Not everything is said with the mouth. That thing passes a lot of messages than words. You're looking at 4 eyes

The point is that it's not necessary to add it to every bank transaction. Even if it's a culture or religion for you to pay.

But it's the law. It's an act. So we MUST pay it.

Image123:
It is very unnecessary or too high. The video says it's voluntary, there's nothing voluntary about stamp duty. It automatically comes on transactions.

.. Good observation.

When we used to go to the post office, we paid it and still pay it.

Image123:
That's not tax but some unnecessary stamp duty that has always existed.

jmoore:
The 'description gang' again. Nobody can touch or tax money in your account.

You guys should stop using this description stuff to keep Nigerians busy.

That's untrue.

Stamp duty is a tax the government charges on certain legal documents, transactions, or agreements. It’s usually applied to things like property transfers, contracts, share certificates, leases, and some financial transactions. The government charges it to legally validate the document or transaction.

That's a typical example of what government collects that is a tax. For example, if you send fifteen thousand naira, the bank keeps fifty naira and your friend gets fourteen thousand nine hundred fifty naira. You only pay this if you send more than ten thousand naira, and the money goes to the government.

The Stamp Duties Act originally dated back to colonial law, and the Finance Act 2019 expanded the Stamp Duties Act to explicitly include bank deposits and transfers, giving a clear statutory basis for charging stamp duty on electronic transactions like bank transfers.
Before the 2019 Finance Act, banks were already deducting a N50 charge on electronic transfers above a certain threshold as an Electronic Money Transfer Levy (EMTL) going back to around 2016, after a Central Bank of Nigeria circular directed banks to implement such levies.

That practice was controversial, and in 2020 a Federal High Court ruled that some of these deductions were being collected without explicit legal backing at the time. The Finance Act 2019 and then the Finance Act 2020 gave the government a clear legal foundation to charge this levy via the Stamp Duties Act amendments, meaning that from March 2020 onward, banks had explicit statutory authority to collect a stamp duty/EMTL on electronic deposits and transfers above ₦10,000.


Under the current regime, banks collect a flat fee (commonly ₦50) on qualifying electronic transfers or deposits, which they remit to the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) as stamp duty revenue.

Image123, there is nothing like unnecessary stamp duty. It is money that goes to the government. You need to correct yourself. Once the money goes to the government as a form of revenue and it is taken from you, you pay the tax.

I remember someone here, a polygamist who posted that he doesn't sleep with his wife and they have separate rooms. Some people were surprised with it but it reminded me of where we learned these things from. If your father or grandpa had more than 1 wife, where did he sleep?

I don't blame them, it's part of the agenda. That's why they shadow ban you on their platforms because they don't want you to tell your story, they want to maintain the narrative. You can see what's happening in Venuezela. They can show what they want the world to see because they control the media. The only reason they censor Russian TV or another country they don't like is because they will burst their bubble. So you too should support your own, stop expecting CNN or X to help you, it's not yours.

All the people responding to the post are posting feelings. Just measure the temperature wherever you are to dispute the cold claims.

MEGAWATCH:
Mention any Obasanjo's minister who was so powerful and arrogant as Wike now?

How many times did Obasanjo ran out of Nigeria when there was crisis?

Who the hell is the bandit that will hold Obasanjo's government at ransom to the point that Nigerians will start inviting foreign nations to help them? 🤣🤣🤣

Tinubu is a very very weak president, stop being emotional.

this guy is all about american interest...he just kidnapped the country's president, seize their oils and then forced them to only buy american product.

... Only thought about the hype. When they found that the ground work was not sexy, colonization brain activated. Let them work for us.

The world cup will be so affected by this. There's no way you want to tell me Trump doesn't know about that. Sorry FIFA.

I still don't understand why they can't pay them their dues. It makes no sense.

Stop taking those stupid tests. Our ancestors managed to have their marriages for thousands of years without such test.

Even today if you observe well you can realise that such tests are never a prerequisite for traditional marriage ceremonies.

Many countries in Africa , Carribbean and black populations all over the world have been getting married and thriving without needing the fraudulent tests.

Don't say that. We evolve. The Arabs marry among themselves and they have problems like the people from Northern Nigeria. The shortest man in the world today came from a marriage between cousins and it's culture for them. Is that culture helpful if you don't do the necessary medical tests? No

I read of a lady that sex with her EX, probably few weeks to her wedding. The EX was AS and she was AS. The child she gave birth to in marriage was SS. She killed the baby. The EX disturbed her with their past sex, until she committed suicide. He probably had a video of it.

BEFORE SOME LADIES TALK OF MEN'S INFIDELITY AND MEN HAVING SIDE CHICKS IN MARRIAGE, THEY SHOULD CHECK THE EVIL SOME LADIES COMMIT BEFORE THE WEDDING DAY.

MEN AND WOMEN SHOULD NOT CHEAT.

The story is incomplete if it doesn't tell us if the husband was AA.

Daniel Bwala said that once they start supporting Tinubu, the brain stops working.

Reno Omokri just proved Daniel Bwala right

53.7% - 41.4% is what? See how Reno Omokri wrote 29.7%.
When hatred blocks the brain, end product is babablu Bulabu.

The correct figure is 22.9% and not 29.7%. Technically, he is correct but his figures are wrong and it doesn't make sense to calculate percentage increases or decreases on a percentage figure. Percentages already represent a ratio to a base population. Calculating a “percent increase of a percent” adds a second layer of abstraction that many audiences misunderstand. That's being mischievous.

12.3 percentage points is a better way to tell the difference. 12.3/53.7=22.9

The second mischief by Omokri was to avoid using the base year (2003) to calculate the percentage difference. He used 41.4 (2009) 👎

Best practice (especially in policy, journalism, or statistics)
1. Use percentage points when comparing percentages over time

2. Use relative percent change only when explicitly justified and clearly labeled

What do I know sef? Na statistics we go chop

On a more serious note, if our ambassadors do not know how to properly calculate percentage differences or are deliberately playing politics with figures, you should be careful to give them public trust because they will manipulate the figures.

Your story is incomplete. What will give it completeness is the location of your brother and your families.
