He may not have known they are under aged. White people kids grow like agric fowls.

Why not watch the video before commenting? Is it not easier to gather information than to speculate??

Why Akwa Ibom?

1 million is not really a lot of money. In a state like Akwa Ibom, you can survive for a while but I don't think it will be easy to multiply that sum so the risk of depleting it without finding anything meaningful to do is very real.

I would advise that you set aside 3 months to learn a relevant tech skill and try to get employed in the global economy.

Content writing

Front End Development
Graphics and Motion design

These are some of the easier pathways. If you're up for the challenge you may consider backend development, data analysis and so on.

Bad news indeed

What a day of joy

Gppgn:
una no get sense for Africa..do you think the whites have foundational issues like we blacks? Do you know ur ancestors served idols while thiers have known God since ages.. you better wake up

Haaland comes from a place where they worshippped idols heavily until relatively recently, and even at that when they stopped, most of them became atgeists not Christians.

9jatriot:
Number 6 should be talking of how to sell those refineries.

It is a complete money drain and serves no purpose trying to wake them up

That's anti-labour going by their social democratoc principles.

SalamRushdie:
Derobe ke? These judges dey vex these days oo

The gravity of what they've done is severe. To attempt to use the Courts to achieve political aims knowing fully well that such processes are contrary to law, means you want to bring the judiciary into ridicule before the society who may not understand what is going on.

The judiciary is standing up for itself!

Mrkindness:
I was surprised when one Yoruba man here in Abuja open his mouth and told me that NLC are Peter Obi people that they are fighting Tinubu government for Obi. Yoruba people are unbelievable.

So you dont know that NLC owns Labour Party?

They're not serious at all. Why not 1 million?

JooEeL:
Don't worry. Your cries were only of soft concern.

Don't be an attention seeker all the time. It's not called for.

Billygee2u:
Why pretending not to know?

Enlighten me sir

Witnesses really need to be coached.

This one may think he has done something but this is cross-examination and at this stage the Court will not use what the lawyer said against them, whereas everything the witness is saying is admitted into the evidence.

So technically, Atiku's witness simply punctured a hole in his case.

JooEeL:
By choosing One Nigeria.

So till now, ure pretending not to know abi?

How did choosing one Nigeria--assuming any of us actually made such a choice, lead to killings in Sokoto?

This country is in trouble.

We have reached the stage were mass deaths are no longer shocking because it is now an everyday occurrence.

Where did we get it so wrong??

OVB123:
We want our leader release, that is all we are asking for. Do this for us, we will stop the sit at home order,

But do you think this method is effective?

Westerhoffe:

Maybe them collect, to copy and paste your CV as their own.

Rather unlikely. They as they won't be able to defend the content of your CV.

In reality, this is the way recruitment works these days. Recruiters are hired and given commissions based on certain KPI's so they aggressively go out looking for suitable candidates.

If they never got back to you, most likely, you were just part of one of their KPI's, for example, a recruiter might be required to get a certain number of candidates to make up a recruitment pool. So a company may want to hire for one position and owuld ask for 100 CVs to choose from.

Also, its possible your CV was just not good enough.

Omoawoke:
The thing shock me too, I watched the video twice and didn’t see where soldiers were hailing protesters

That's Nigerians for you. Thoroughly sheeplike and believe whatever they're told. Very few who will say let me check this out myself.

obyno82:
Dud you are really exhibiting ignorance in HD walahi. Go and read hostile takeovers dude

Who is your dude? Young man go and have a seat. I don't have time to explain anything to you beyond this:

Privately held companies are different from publicly held companies. In a privately held company, ownership is nearly always completely vested in board members. Ergo a hostile takeover is not possible. Any takeover would have to be by consent.


Bye.

There is no point in that video where soldiers are seen hailing the civilians. Rather one soldier waves his arms to signal troops to proceed.

Lutherblaq:

Shut up you ugly and hungry ape!

Stop trying to blackmail NLC you propaganda mechine... Can't someone say the truth without being linked to peter obi?

Look at his big agbero eyes

NLC owns Labour Party. The link is obviously valid

obyno82:
Heard of a hostil takeover?

Lol. How can privately held company be taken over in a hostile takeover?

Face the business you understand please.

obyno82:
That was the same MO standard oil was using against other operators. If you don't play ball, he will acquire your company and absorb it under standard oil.

How can someone forcefully acquire privately held companies?

seborrhic:
The one of Dangote is a fact.
I have been drumming it to the hears of people even last year when this Dangote refinery issue came up.
I posted in this forum on various threads that no one should expect Dangote to sell fuel at ₦185.I was even generous then when I opined that fuel from Dangote would sell at nothing less than ₦300-₦400.
Even in areas where Dangote has a bit of co-player,cement,he has muscled other minor players to be fixing prices at higher rates because the other players can meet only 10-20% of demand while he controls at least 70%.
Now imagine fuel,an essential product where he would be the only player since sourcing dollar at market rate to import fuel would be more like economic bankruptcy!Added to the fact he has massive debts to pay,in foreign currency!!
₦1000 or even ₦1200 by December is highly possible.

That doesnt make sense. How exactly does having the dominant share of demand help you force others to sell higher? If anything, smaller companies try to undercut bigger ones as a competitive strategy. Kindly explain your theory

blowjohn:
Why can't they grant licences to people to produce and sell?

Of course they are doing that. As we speak the process is ongoing and it was announced publicly.

kingsways:
It makes no sense to say market forces will determine price when you have only one supplier in the market

How can there be only one supplier? There so any companies with import licenses, and they just called for more applicants.

Dont you follow the news?

Och77:
Victor should be the first Nigerian to have won the golden boot in any of the top 5 leagues in Europe. I stand to be corrected

You're right

okuta007:
Jonathan Akpoborie was highest in Germany

Late Rasheed Yekini was higest in Portugal

Richard Owubokiri was highest in Portugal

I think John Utaka was strong in France too

in 1996- Akpoborie was highest goal scorer in the German Bundesliga for his club Hansa Rostock yet he was a bench warmer in the super eagles - that’s to show you where Nigeria was as a football super power those says 😀

Akpoborie's record was in the second division. Yekini and Owubokiri both did it in Portugal, making Osimhen the first Nigerian to emerge top goal scorer in an A league.

DeAdvokate:
Well deserved! He should go to Madrid. English press will press his neck with negative criticism

Madrid?

Where his own fans will boo him at the slightest error?

Spain that is the home of racism in football?

Even at my young age then I knew the susbidy had to go and could not understand the protests.

SpecialAdviser:
That was the reason they gave you abi? Is it only the small generators that cause pollution?
Before the ban, they were already accusing generator importers as people sabotaging power so don't make it look like we are kids.

But how does banning only small gens and allowing the bigger ones disincentivize the generator importers from supposedly sabotaging our electricity? If anything doesnt that imply more sales of the bigger gens?

As far as im concerned we have no reason to doubt the official reason. And if there was a hidden motive it certainly wasnt to improve electricity and they never said so.

airsaylongcome:
Nice that you ask for data. I don't have those at the tip of my fingers but will share when I get them. One of the most visible roles is that of Media assistants. Can we do away with all of those and have employees with the Ministry of Information work those roles so we can maximally utilise employees we already pay for? I'm not even mentioning all the multiple SSAs that each of the ministers get to appoint. The SSAs in turn have their assistants.

I was in a meeting with work colleagues who asked me how can Nigeria afford to have someone hired to open the door of the person that opens the door for a Government executive.

I am not justifying the subsidy on petrol. I'm asking for government to first of eliminate all fiscal waste to show good fate. Fix electricity (6 months is enough for any serious government to fix outages right?) and see Nigerians demand for petrol fizzle out

Sure, I have no doubt there are lots of areas of leakage but I doubt allowances alone can really add up to enough to cover the subsidy. Except you want to go after the lawmakers who consume astronomical amounts--but how will he do that practically? Again, the other question is, is it necessarily a good thing to fire all those supposedly useless aides? Isn't this one of the ways government creates employment?

Also, fixing electricity is a big ask. If no government has been able to do it yet, doesn't placing that as a prerequisite effectively mean an indefinite postponement of the subsidy removal?

OneCandleAway:
Tell him to probe the $800 million World Bank gave us for subsidy palliative months back. That is enough to get busses for cheap mass transit

Break it down for me please - we need to provide transit systems for 200 million people. How may buses exactly do you think will do? What is the unit cost of each, and is there money to sustain their operations or is the 800 million meant to last forever?

airsaylongcome:
The money to pay for subsidy? Reduce the cost of governance. Eliminate all profligacy by not appointing several "special assistants". Do away with all allowances for government officials. We will easily see ₦2 trillion if they do those

Can we do specifics? Can you give me a rough idea specifically whose allowances you would cut to add up to the figure?
