This can happen when the monthly allowance for up keeping is huge and the woman does something.
This kind of house cost almost 5million. Come build with 20k monthly na! Anyways wise woman indeed!

I've not seen any part that says this is the house that was built by her"

Gracealone:
The woman was screaming in the video that the policeman slapped her first.
Nobody mentions that again

Well the video does not show the man behaving aggressively, and even the bystanders can be heard cautioning her. In such cases, a judge will look to a an evidentiary standard called the balance of probabilities. Meaning, which story is more likely to be true given all the evidence? Perhaps if she can find eyewitnesses to come to her aid it may mitigate her punishment, but even at that, she has no defense in law.

Let us see those who are good drivers.

Only 3 is wrong. 1 and 4 are on the right lanes and 2 is allowed to overtake.

Abeg this spy no get name.

I am concerned that not releasung a name implies the person is in danger.

Nigeria! I am laugh-crying for the following observations:

1. A grown man of at least 25 behaving like a small boy of 19.

2. The daddy that put on the face mask to talk and removes it when he is done.

3. The official who believes that not having a high temperature means one does not have Covid-19.

My country.

ignis:
Meanwhile Germany Just Donated Additional N2.2bn To Nigeria To Fight COVID-19.

Something must be wrong somewhere.

It is not always about having money. Right now suppliers are struggling to keep up with demand.

Time to split Nigeria so that these ones can go and enjoy their majority status with themselves.

There are many more even here in Africa, including Gambia and Senegal.

sapientia:
Sooner the details are out the better.

So that recent contacts will get tested.

See how other timelines were meticulously presented while leaving out the only reason I clicked on the thread.

Recent contacts tested for what?

VaselineCrew:
Same question I asked.

What is the point of curfew in Lagos between 8pm-6am?

If that is not daft, then I don’t know what is.

Will the virus hibernate during that time window? How will workers get home? Will the police now start harassing people going home at 9pm?

Questions, questions, questions, without answers from a recorded speech.

Everyone has to close earlier.

If you don't have anything sensible to say just keep quiet and ffuck off?

Which one is a few weeks of 25 percent deduction ?
Didn't you read the report that the illegal deductions of public servants salary would continue until the end of the pandemic.
The topic and the first paragraph is below
Kaduna Cuts Public Servants Salary By 25% To Fund Support Packages by Islie: 8:37am
Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai on Sunday announced that the state public servants earning, at least, N67, 000 will have 25 per cent of their salaries ‘donated’ to the state’s purse until the end of the quarantine period.

Check your user name and the language used in your post. That is all I have to say to you.

adanny01:
50 times ehnn!

$1000/50=20

20*365= 7300

That means Nigeria can afford to give all Nigerians N7300.

I am here complaining that the Nigeria didn't give N7300 to all but a state took away 20,000 from my wife's cousin just 2mins ago. My wifes cousin was already crying because she had enter into a thrift contribution that she gives 25k monthly. The problem here is that out of her 82k salary, 45k is not available, what is available is 37k. With her husband's business shut down, they have only 37k to feed for an entire month down from the 60k she used to feed the family with. This family is going to starve because the governor is insensitive too what happens to them.

They used to buy 3 measures of sugar at 500 which is now 800. Instead of spending 1500 on sugar she will spend 2400. Almost 1000 up from last month. If every other thing is up by same rate, the value of 37k is about 15k. That means she needs like 45k to feed this month.

Their family is either going to starve or drop their standard of living for this month to even below the poverty level. She is on level 13 and a senior civil servant but is well below poverty line from now on. This was not her own doing, it is the state governor's doing.

Guy, they will not starve. They will drop their standard of living for a few months. If you 7, 300 is okay for some other families, why should your cousin and her husband starve on 37k?? Is that not still above minimum wage? And is it the government that asked her to do thrift contribution? These are basic austerity measures that will surely pass. She can bear, and she should bear.

geezynoni:
Some schools are resuming third term online.

Yes, and the government says they should stop that. But schools are free to continue to offer lessons online if they wish, outside of the academic year structure. That is, by way of revisions and so.

adanny01:
It is easy to say but is impossible to do it. He os not going to give the money to anybody, trust me.

They brought state parliatives, I saw how it was shared. They distributed the state parliatives to LGAs, LGAs shared to Wards and then from wards it land in the hands of APC ward leaders. The ward leaders divided the entire parliatives into 2 brought out half. Gave bag of semo to a woman, a carton of noodles to her son, 4 litres of vegetables oil to her daughter meanwhile her husband is the ward chairman. Other families received i cup of oil and 2 or 3 noodles. In 1hr, everything has finished.

Later that night, the APC ward chairman's son was see pushing a wheel barrow with 5bags of semo and 5 cartons of noodles plus other items. It took him 3 trips from their house to the store.

The state thought the shared parliatives but no, this man does not eat semo in his house. He has never been able to afford them so he called Emeka the shop keep and sold everything to him for cash.

This is the reality. You can desire it but you cannot execute it. You can only show the food on TV that you provided but it will not get to where it needs to get. The politicians end up with 25% in their pockets.

What ever parliatives that isn't in form of cash or service, ends up in the wrong place.

Even if he buys 5 million testing kits, 2 million will end up in a private clinic or pharmacy that citizens will still pay for.

Are we comparing GDP? If the American GDP is giving parliatives of $1000, the smaller Nigerian GDP should consider giving $0-100 not to take from citizens.

So you think if 25% is deducted, the will not deduct loans, tax, contribution, levies etc? How do they become irrelevant when they will be deducted still.

All does deductions for years didn't provide what. They need to provide health insurance, or good infrastructure, certainly and month or 2 of heavy deductions will certainly not do anything. Just another fund to be looted while citizens become poorer.

Are uou aware that a civil servant in Kaduna state with a salary of 100k is at the level of assistant director? In the average, such a person should have less than 15yrs to retire so should of the mid to late 40's. That means the person should have an average family size of 6 with atleast 4 being adults. After all deductions and thw rise in food price, they will be left with 20-30k to feed for 30days.. say. 25k/6=4k

Each person of the house hold member will be left with less than N150/day to feed the entire month.

That is serious poverty that the governor plunged an assistant director!

You have no idea how messed up Nigeria is.

Brotherly...so a few weeks of 25% deduction is what will plunge a director into poverty? Is Covid-19 here forever? Whose fault is it that the director has debts??

1. If you want to make a comparison between the US and Nigeria, here it is: the US GDP is 50 times Nigeria's own.

2. If the US gives approximately 1k usd, that is 0.000005% of their GDP.

Let's assume Nigeria does the same:

3. 0.000005% of Nigerias GDP is 20 USD. 1/50 of the amount given by the US.

Now tell me, if the government provides 20 usd worth of palliatives (take note of the spelling please), won't you also be here to complain?? after all, according to you, prices have increased by 60% so what can 7k naira buy?

adanny01:
Is he going to feed the civil servants? NO. Will they receive parliatives? NO. The are virtually exempted from all support. Kaduna Civil servants get deductions for health insurance. Do they enjoy health insurance not. They get mortgage deductions for the entire 35yrs of service and then given 200k for housing on retirement (both my parents got that).

Did you buy sugar recently, the price is almost double. Rice is 30k. Flour, milk, beverages, yams, tomatoes etc have all almost doubled.

If food has doubled, the salary's have gone down by half them take out another 25%. What is left.

Will the governor feed anyone? How many testing centers are there? What is he going to do with the money that can benefit the civil servants? Nothing?

The US government gave all citizens $1000 as parliatives per month. Here, they taking parliatives from citizens.

Palliatives are given according to capacity. Let's get very objective for a second.

1. The deduction from those who have is going directly to those who do not have. So yes, the governor is indeed feeding the entire State.

2. By what standard are you comparing Nigeria and the USA? Nigeria has a GDP of 400 billion USD. USA has a GDP of 20 trillion USD. Does your comparison make sense to you?

3. Everything you listed about mortgages and health insurance has no bearing on the current issue.

They didnt bar online teaching. They barred resumption of the third term.

adanny01:
I seriously don't agree with my governor on this.

We know for a fact that one of the reasons for corruption in Nigeria is low take home pay by workers. Civil servants cannot afford to build a house, buy a car or at least afford standard 3 square meals. This gives rise to poverty among civil servants who will either find alternate ways to make ends meet of take.

With Civil servants exempted from state or federal parliatives, and then price of food stuff has increased 60% in the past weeks then a forced salary cut. When the government is supposed to even give additional parliatives, they have decided to transfer their burden of providing health care facilities, affordable infrastructure and the other state responsibility to civil servants. It is absolutely wrong and very insensitive of the governor.

If any Civil servant that has a 100k salary with a loan of any kind say 30k, the person will be left with less than 50k and then have to spend more since price of food has gone up. At the rate of 60% surge on food prices, the civil servant will be left with 20k. That means hardship.

60% of food price surge plus 25% state deduction means a civil servant salary drops by 85%! That is highly wicked of the governor.

Where should the governor get money to feed everyone?

ddippset:
Don't mind these hypocrites.

Assuming 40 million families in Nigeria,
I bet 30 million families don't even have 10k for a month,
They are here complaining about 50k.

The thing is baffling me. It is like Nigerians just love to complain.

tot:
Ehhhh!
Just read this comment. I beg of you, don't quote me again. Cannot have any agreeable discussion with a person whose view is that 50k is sufficient for a family of 5
Rent, feeding, generator, transport, clothes, school fees. Kai. This country has a looooooooooooooooong way to go. I am done.

My dear that is your business o.

The state is in lockdown and you are mentioning transport, clothes, school fees, and generator.
Transport to where?
Who is buying clothes at this time? to go where? From bedroom to parlour?
Which school is open?

Can you see that you are not thinking?
So someone that was earning 68k before was using generator comfortably?

tot:
Okay now, let us continue to justify whatever crap the govt offers and refuse to learn from those getting it right "because we do not have the resources they do". The same govt where individuals loot millions and billions is not penalizing citizens. Why should the citizens be the ones to cater for the needy?

The fact is that the government cannot afford to do it. Learning from those getting it right does not mean jumping from 0 to 100. whatever you see happening in the west today, was built 100 years ago! A strong democracy and a strong economy were built up while we were still in colonization. We cannot simply emulate them just like that! Is this not obvious?

We need african-made solutions to peculiar challenges. That does not mean that there are no things to complain about, but this one is not it. Not today.

tot:
Why on earth can you not compare yourself to those getting it right? The same countries your leaders run to for healthcare and what not. Anyway, let us continue excusing mediocrity, everyone will suffer it.

If you are not one of those impacted, you have no right to justify it. Easy to say others should take a 25% cut cos it doesn't impact you. So anyone who earns about 67k is rich? Na wa.

We can't compare ourselves to them because we do not have the resources they do. Is that not obvious? Now let me ask you these two questions:

1. Can Nigeria afford to pay every household a minimum of 1k dollars as is done in the US and Canada? Can we?

2. What is your plan for the needy?

heykims:
What!!! 50k for a family of 5??
If u continue to reason this way, u may struggle for life.

be silent there!

Who is talking about aspirational metrics here? We are navigating public policy for the nation in a time of unprecedented challenges, in the ocntext of which we are talking about salary reduction from 68k to 50k. In a time when there is no movement and the only expense is food and utilities. If you were survinign on 68k before, with transport and other living costs, how can 50k to sit at home not be enough?

Please, allow me to engage with mature fellows this morning.

What a brilliant move from El Rufai. Had it been that he was not a bigot and fulani supremacist, he would have my vote for president.

stevmatt15:
If your family is 5
Others are not oooooo
No be for that place you go see a man with 4 wives, 2 concubines And 15 children?
No be northerners again?
No be polygamy state again?
No be Islamic state again?

Am just talking for them oooo not for myself oooo

My friend, if they were surviving on 67 k, they can surely survive on 50k. and besides that, the money is going back to the poor, so these extended relations you speak of will already be catered for!

tot:
Nigerians truly deserve the leaders they get. Imagine justifying this.

Other countries are furloughing employees and supporting businesses with grants. Go and read up on how other governments across the world are supporting their citizens, furloughing in the UK etc.

Every country manages their own in a unique way my dear. I just can't understand why so many of you cannot process and analyse information without supporting your argument on the basis of "look at what XYZ country is doing". Are the circumstances the same? You want to compare Nigeria to the countries that provide aid to Nigeria. Is there a basis for such comparison?? Are you telling me that you are so selfish that you can't contemplate a 25% temporary cut that will be used to feed the poor??

stevmatt15:
Haaa! Salary that needs increment in this lock down you are deducting from it?

so 50k is not enough? What does a family of 5, for example, need that 50k cannot buy in a month?

LibertyRep:
It has started. The civil servants will always be the first casualty in government.
What happens to those politicians and their appointees taking large chunk of the resources?

Selfish private establishment who never wanted to pay salary in the first instance will now escalate it.

Are politicians and their employees not public servants again?

Why una too like to complain!!Why?

If no provision is made for millions of the poor in that State will you be happy? Now where should mallam Rufai get the money??

Drabeey:
Online? We copy copy so tae we can't even understand what's best for our system.

So commendable, but ordinary data subscription at this time is a problem. How about students using 'tonasobe' what is their access point?
Must we be a copycat? Poverty level on its on makes many drops out of school. Makes me want to ask, do we really believe Nigerians are poor?

This means no computer/internet access, no learning.
Well at this time, students who can't afford it should please refer back to their textbooks, i believe you have the syllabus. Please read wide, life is not bias, not fair either. it's just where we found ourselves.




If you haven't mentioned porn i wouldn't have answered you. Damn! Porn is good. It's just sad you are too deluded to see reasons for the post, but then tell me where is said this school isn't pvt?

Have you seen the school fees paid in that school? Have you heard any student of the school complain?

Culture changes. Even many of the cultures that you think are "pure" have imbibed a lot from others.

This woman is everything that's wrong with giving power to someone who has alot to prove.

She will initiate massive uranium enrichment program that even China her biggest Ally will become wary.

I vividly remember at a summit with United States, Kim was given a pen to sign a document and she refused and swapped the pen with her own

Any correlation between your allegation that hse has a lot ot prove and her swapping out her brother's pen?
