Foreign AffairsRe: South Africa Withdraws Diplomats From Israel by slymansun: 7:53pm On Nov 06, 2023
Israel is taking their vengeance on all Palestinians because none of them condemned what Hamas did. That means what Hamas did served their interest.
And Israel is not listening to the Arab world( even those they have tie with) because none of them have spoken against the terror Hamas unleashed on innocent Israelis.
I am not supporting any side but the international community need to objectively find a way to resolve this age-long conflict.
Foreign AffairsRe: South Africa Withdraws Diplomats From Israel by slymansun: 7:47pm On Nov 06, 2023
This is not a religious war and people should stop relating this to God.

The international community should find a lasting solution to this unending conflict.
Both Hamas and Israel have erred in this conflict. The killing of innocent civilians by both parties have to stop.
Hamas should release Israeli hostages. This will likely encourage Israel to create a ceasefire.
I don't see Israel agreeing to a ceasefire for as long as Israelis are held hostage.
Hamas miscalculated by thinking that taking hostages will prevent Israel from unleashing hell.
The major challenge in this conflict is that Israel is not willing to negotiate with Hamas.
Every reasonable person should be seeking for peace and not supporting any side in this conflict.
For people blaming Israel, tell me which country in this world will not react aggressively if she is attacked brutally the way Hamas did.
Israel is taking their response to a whole new level, they need to calm down and allow peace to reign.
PoliticsRe: Presidential Yacht Delivered Before Public Outcry, Says Ndume by slymansun: 8:42pm On Nov 03, 2023
We have a very useless, insensitive, irresponsible and self-centred govt in this country.
Imagine a senator, a man that has been in govt saying that Nigeria roads are not motorable. Who are we to blame for the roads not being motorable? And you want to use that as an excuse to squander more money when Nigerians are dying of hunger.
Nigeria will remain in retrogression until we all rise up one day and say enough is enough.
Most of our politicians are demons in human skin.
PoliticsRe: Budget: Tinubu To Spend ₦6.9bn On Vehicles, First Lady Office To Get ₦1.5bn Cars by slymansun: 9:11pm On Oct 31, 2023
nathyx:
Giving the recent inflation and raise in prices of things,I feel its necessary that the
President, of the largest Black nation in the world the "jagaban" of africa and his beautiful wife deserves the comfort of good motor Vehicles, to enable them carry out their duties effectively and safely. God bless his Excellency HE Asiwaju Bola Tinubu (Jagaban 001) NB : obedients wailers can come and cry here wink
So you believe all the people complaining about this FG that has brought so much hardship on Nigerians including you are all obidients?
It is the foolishness of blind supporters like you that has led Nigeria to this catastrophic state.
PoliticsRe: Budget: Tinubu To Spend ₦6.9bn On Vehicles, First Lady Office To Get ₦1.5bn Cars by slymansun: 9:02pm On Oct 31, 2023
Why is this country so useless and extravagant. Extravagance in the midst of suffering masses.
What is office of the first lady?
How many countries runs office of the first.
Serious countries in the world like USA, UK, Germany and other European countries etc don't have time for such stupidity and wastage.
It is only in God forsaken countries in Africa( despite our poverty and beggarly posturing) that you have such irrelevance and purposeless indulgence being practised.
When are we going to be serious in this country.
Tinubu is nothing more than a demented shadow chaser and hypocritical chameleon.
PoliticsRe: FOREX Crisis: FG Plans Talks With Looters, Eyes Mop-Up From Hoarders by slymansun: 5:09pm On Oct 29, 2023
BigIyanga:
Prayers dont build a nation.. actions do. Hope and payrers cannot solve FX and security crisis.

God cannot be tricked. We got here by folks like you electing GMB 2X .. so that BAT would become president. Now he’s gotten the job, let him fix the mess, dont give God another assignment
I don't know how long it will take Nigerians to accept the fact that prayers and fasting is not the solution to our political and economic problems. It pisses me off when people say we should pray instead of strategically finding solutions to our problems.
Prayers have been said for Nigeria for donkey years but the more these prayers are said, the more downhill we have been going.
I don't think there is any country in the world that prayer and fasting have developed. It is laziness and foolishness to think that these can "miraculously" transform Nigeria.
I am a Christian but I don't believe in people using prayers and fasting as an excuse to delegate their duties and responsibilities to God. God has given us all we need to develop our country but our greed, corrupt nature, incompetence and lack of patriotism has been a bane to our development.

Pakute:
And what's wrong negotiating with looters to get some more dollars they are hoarding?, Are there no plea bargaining everywhere in the world?. I don't know why wailers are so crazy about this dollar thingy, why make it look like dollar is our local currency?. Govt must put a stop to this dollar frenzy.
You need to understand the reason why you cannot stop talking about the dollar. If it were that easy, we would have stopped since.
The dollar is more or less the "international currency". Whether you are buying raw materials or finished products, they are priced in dollars.
For countries, e.g China that can source most of their raw materials and finished products locally, they don't care much about dollar exchange rate because they can do most of their business without dollar.
But for a country like Nigeria where almost all the products we use/consume are sourced by importation, you cannot do without dollars because those products are bought in dollars.
Just name it: refined crude oil, electronics, phones, fashion and textiles, books, pencils etc.
Until Nigeria become more of a production economy rather than a consumption one, we are enslaved to dollar.
This over reliance on foreign raw materials and products consequently increases demand for dollar. Simple Economics teaches that a high demand with corresponding low supply leads to high prices.

PoliticsRe: Open Letter To The Peoples Democratic Party - Reno Omokri by slymansun: 5:51pm On Oct 06, 2023
I wonder what type of pastor Reno Omokri is. A pastor that hates, so petulant.
His hatred for Peter Obi is driving him mad. He leaves Atiku that is the one directly trying to discredit Tinubu and keep pursuing, vilifying and hating on Peter Obi.
I think it is high time people completely ignore whatever he says. End time pastor.

PoliticsRe: Resign And Save Nigeria From Further Embarrassment — National Coalition, NADECO by slymansun: 8:28pm On Sep 29, 2023
MadamExcellency:
Tinubu was voted to effect repairs on a depilated structure we call a country housing two hundred million Nigerians. Instead of considering the living conditions of the people and what best approach to go about the repairs. President Tinubu immediately after inauguration pulled down the whole building and made 200 million people homeless. President Tinubu finished Nigeria with the so-called unification of forex trading platforms by devaluing the naira from N460 to N765 which didn't eliminate the black market.

The unfortunate thing is that Tinubu may not be able to house half of the people he made homeless let alone leave the government better than he met it.
I am jet to see any positive or sense in Tinubu's monetary policy. It is just madness.
I am not an economist. Please economists should tell us the benefit of this devious policy of naira devaluation.
I thought it will eliminate black market rate and ensure the exchange rate is uniform. But black market rate still exists and that is the actual exchange rate because that is where you can get dollar from.
Tinubu just killed the naira in a swoop. At least Buhari in 8years, took the rate from ₦155/$ to ₦500/$ but BAT in 3months has taken it from ₦500/$ to ₦1000/$.
Tinubu is a disaster.

BusinessRe: Naira Tumbles To 980/Dollar, FX Shortage Worsens by slymansun: 10:07pm On Sep 21, 2023
Nigeria is really heading in the path of doom under BAT. I just don't know how our currency has become so valueless like this. This is really terrible and alarming.
ƁAT is busy gallivanting on foreign trips seeking for fairytale FDI while our local economy is dying. You are able to attract foreign investors when your economy is sound. Which investor is coming to invest in a dead economy?
Politics has ruined Nigeria and yet our politicians in their devilish and selfish interest don't want to learn or repent.
PoliticsRe: My Administration Will Re-Establish Nigeria's Status As Giant Of Africa - Tinubu by slymansun: 9:22pm On Jul 02, 2023
[quote author=Asswipemod post=124173235]Guy, that is what everyone deserves for stopping GEJ from removing subsidy way back. Nigeria has damaged beyond gradual step by step removal. Infact, any other form of removal different from what Tinubu has done is fraudulent. The time of treating a small cut with iodine has passed. Gangarene had set in too deeply, so the limb needs to be removed completely.[/quot


My dear, I am not an economist. Please can you explain how these measures are going to "repair" Nigeria.
All I see is increased, traumatizing hardship and poverty for Nigerians. Our money is more or less an ordinary paper now.
PoliticsRe: My Administration Will Re-Establish Nigeria's Status As Giant Of Africa - Tinubu by slymansun: 8:51pm On Jul 02, 2023
Even if you must remove subsidies, a well meaning person will do it in phases.
You can't just rush and remove fuel subsidy, education subsidy, float naira, hike electricity tariff within a few weeks in power without instituting any measure to cushion the effect of the biting hardship these places on Nigerians.
Nobody should tell me about Student Loan because that is just a deceptive mirage; very unrealistic.
Tinubu is removing subsidies so he can have enough money to embezzle to recover the huge amount of money he spent to buy the presidency. I do still believe that Tinubu is a crook and fraud and I don't believe he has good intentions for Nigeria.
PoliticsRe: My Administration Will Re-Establish Nigeria's Status As Giant Of Africa - Tinubu by slymansun: 8:42pm On Jul 02, 2023
If Tinubu ever succeeds in doing this, only lucky Nigerians may be alive to witness it. Because majority of Nigerians would have been finished by poverty and hardship before then.
Tinubu is saying all this gibberish to deceive us. I want him to clearly explain to us how he wants to achieve this. The measures he has taken so far which is making life harder and more unbearable, how will it translate to better life for Nigerians? We need a clear mathematical or realistic explanation of how this current harrowing hardship will transform to good living for Nigerians.
BusinessRe: Naira Now Undervalued After Float, Bank Of America Says by slymansun: 10:28pm On Jun 30, 2023
DeLaRue:
It's laughable.

Every hour, Nigerians are monitoring Naira/USD rate even when they don't do any international trade.

Tailors, office workers, landlords, teachers, market men and women etc are discussing dollar rate every day.

Every time the value goes up by any amount, people's blood pressure rises enmass.

My sister has no business with the dollar, but anytime she calls, she will ask if I know that dollar is so and so huh

The slavish obsession with the dollar is contributing to making more people wanting to buy it, therefore destroying the naira.

People are just 'doing themselves '.

We are not Americans. Dollar is not our currency.

Why are we obsessed with this currency.

I don't think there's any country in the world where whole swathes of the population have deified another country 's currency.

FamilyRe: If You Knew What You Know Now, Would You Marry Your Spouse? by slymansun: 9:41pm On Jun 30, 2023
If I had known and considered certain things, I wouldn't have married my wife. She is a very good wife but the only problem is that she is not resourceful. She lacks ambition and drive to be an achiever and improve her self value.
I love academics a lot but my wife though a graduate, does not have passion for education and neither does she have drive for business.
It is something I am really not happy about

The priority of a sensible govt now, my brother, is to strengthen her Monetary and Fiscal policies, take control of his government, save all the deathly subsidies funds and role out an unprecedented social welfare and job target infrastructure expansions in the coming supplementary budget.

Please, read about the economy miracles of S/Korea, Chinese, Singapore and likes, the beginning was deadly and tougher than what you can imagine.
Just be there speaking grammar and be deceiving yourself with your biased and fixated mindset. By the time you realize what Tinubu is doing to your destiny, you will come back here and confess your folly in believing that Tinubu is working for your good.
Why is Tinubu increasing his salary by 114%?
What measures has he put in place to cushion the effect of his stupid policies so far on Nigerians?

I don't like Tinubu but this is a very good move though he may have done it out of vindictiveness.
Buhari and Emefiele was a very destructive combination for our economy. It is only God that will judge them for the havoc they wrecked on this country.
PoliticsRe: Subsidy Removal Won’t Take Immediate Effect - Tinubu Clarifies by slymansun: 9:06pm On May 30, 2023
Patriotsleague:
“He was merely communicating the status quo, considering that the previous administration’s budget for fuel subsidy was planned and approved to last for only the first half of the year.

“Effectively, this means that by the end of June, the Federal Government will be without funds to continue the subsidy regime, translating to its termination.

You are the daft one.
What matters is that fuel is now selling at minimum of #500 per litre because of his careless, unguided statement. I met someone today who bought at #1000/liter.
A president should not make statements without thinking of the consequences. Tinubu has started on a bad note. I hope his impaired cognitive function doesn't cause us much suffering.

Are obidients daft or blinded by hatred?

I was at the Accident and emergency department when they rushed him to the hospital. He was brought in dead.
This country at the moment have no hope of getting better; we are just doomed. Evil politicians and their weapons( Thugs) have taken Nigeria captive and there is no hope of redemption.
Any society that refuses to punish criminality is doomed. These things happens every election and yet not even one person has been prosecuted or brought to book. How then do you stop all these madness.
And with someone like Tinubu as president, any trace of hope of redemption is entirely gone.
Under Tinubu, Nigeria will become a nation of institutionalized corruption, pilfering and Thuggery. He might even create a Ministry of Thuggery with MC Oluomo as Minister. What inspiration do citizens derive from a President that completely lacks integrity ?
My greatest regret in life is being a Nigerian, it is very unfortunate that I came from this lawless, disorganized country where the foolish lead the wise, where evil always triumph over good, where the trampled foolishly celebrate those trampling on them.

Sijo01:
What concerns a bus with a train track 😕
There are at times points of intersection between a railway track and roads. I have seen at least 2 in Porthatcourt( at Station road, Elelenwo and Boro park, Mile 1). Usually when a train is coming, alarm is raised to clear the track for the train to pass.
Years ago, the husband of one woman that shared the same office complex with my elder brother died at the intersection close to Boro Park when a train rammed into his vehicle. There was a traffic jam, other drivers/passengers evacuated their vehicles but the man went back to his car because of the money he had in the car.
