mrvitalis:
So where is the projects

How do I answer that without sitting down to scrutinize the budget and cross referencing with expenditure figures that neither of us have access to?

mrvitalis:
Our subsidy according to IMF n cbn only cost 5.6 trillion there see over 35 trillion to account for

This guy. The article you referenced explains it all, doesn't it? According to the same article:

1. The borrowing is to finance the budget deficit

2. Naira fluctuations have increased the naira value of these loans

Is that why you sent a screenshot before? Thinking I'm like all these lazy children who will follow you to debate headlines without reading the substance? Not me buddy!

Oya take and read more: https://leadership.ng/federal-government-borrows-fresh-n24-33trn-in-3-months/#:~:text=Nigeria's%20government%20has%20accumulated,Debt%20Management%20Office%20(DMO).

mrvitalis:
But we are paying more subsidy now than we have paid in our history

Assuming that is true, you deserve a medal. You have just successfully defended the increased borrowing you asked me to defend. Well done!

mrvitalis:
Firstly I said almost borrowed and Buhari meet about 30 trillion naira debt or so can quite remember the figure

But the fact is if Tinubu borrowed 41 trillion in just one year does he has a moral right to critic Buhari borrowing habits

More important is as a Tinubu supporter what can you use to justify this loan of 41 trillion

Why should I justify anything? We are actually talking about whether Nigeria can afford subsidies or not - a chronic debtor obviously can't!

Antitankweapon:
Enough of this North vs South nonsense. Enough of it please. It doesn't help Nigeria. And we are getting sick of it.

Northern Governors and Southern Governors is NONSENSE. We should stop these forums. North and South should stop these divisive forums. It is never helped us. Enough please.

Let's build a United nation that works for everyone, where every ethnic nationality thrives and feels safe. Please.

North vs South doesn't help our unity, and it should STOP. North vs South should STOP.

Let's all work for a United Nigeria.

You yet to explain what exactly makes the Southern governors idiots.

mrvitalis:
Buhari left our debt at 80 trillion
Tinubu has taken it to 121 trillion in one year

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.vanguardngr.com/2023/05/buharis-huge-parting-debt-profile/amp/

Just on the face of what you've provided here, how does what you said earlier make sense to you?

Buhari left the debt profile at 80 trillion. Under Tinubu it increased to 121. That is an increase of 41 trillion - almost exactly half of what was borrowed under Buhari (of which the increase in dollar cost is a major factor).

So, clearly, no, Tinubu has not borrowed in one year what Buhari borrowed in 8. That was clear nonsense. Further more, you don't even understand what you are reading as the nation's debt profile is the sum of total debt at all levels of government, including the States. So, again, no, Tinubu did not even borrow the entire 41 trillion increment you are referencing.

Try to understand these figures before you bandy them about.

mrvitalis:
If I show u the data what would u do?

Read it and accept your point.

mrvitalis:
Are u aware Tinubu has almost borrowed the same amount Buhari did in 8 years in one year?

Can we have the data with sources?

mrvitalis:
How can a human being with functional brain believe Nigeria no longer pay subsidy on petrol?

How can?

Are you unaware of how deep the nation was sinking into debt under Buhari?? You don't even have a clue what you're talking about.

God1000:
This so-called madam should be arrested and prosecuted, I don't know why some rich women treat their househelp so badly in Nigeria, they degrade and dehumanize them for no reason.

I think government should step in and put in place legislation that will protect these girls from their wicked madams

It is always madam doing this evil, their husbands don't even have time for such thing

This does not require any special legislation. And really I don't see the evil the "big woman" has done. It's a straightforward case of accusation of theft and the law has ample processes to deal with this. The "big woman" is within her rights to accuse her. The help is also entitled to a defense and the major issue I see here is that her lawyer has failed her.

confusedlady:
Thanks for this historical insights. You should open a thread about this ,you know....because it was obvious the Ibo high elite were all in the know and behind the events of January 1966 but the Ibo propagandists always try to paint a picture of an all inclusive Coup because of the mischievous inclusion of Major Ademoyega who obviously did not recognise himself as a puppet in the hands of the Ibos like Ifeajuna and Nzeogwu.

Nzeogwu was the biggest puppet of all. He had no idea that he was being used.

2RightHands1Coc:
Share his findings to you?

Yes. Openly here on Nairaland. Any problems with that?

SKYHIGHfx:
You want make them kpai am?

Lol. So how did he get the information? Secondly, if he is afraid of death, then why is he asking us to do the same?

AngryMrMAN:
Political assassination.

Go to any prison, barrack , police station in the next 2 years .

Show them this particular news .

Tell them you want to see these faces.

Come back tell me the response from the uniform men .


The picture below is the biggest I mean the biggest cocaine Burst not on in Nigeria but the entire Africa in a single operation.

Look at thier faces.

Go to the barracks, guards rooms , police station in the whole 36 states .

Show them this news and demand to see just one of them as a legal prosecutor.

This means you must have done the research yourself sir...why not share your findings?

BlueStripper:
Let's get serious here. Why is this on the front page of Nairaland?

You expect us to react to this nonsense?

Can't you see people reacting to it?? Meanwhile you've not reacted to anything since June 2, not even the serious threads. Why did you now react to this one sir?

vanbonattel:
Lagos fire service are the slowest fire response team in the world, they couldn't do anything to stop the fire, just spent a lot of time spraying water on the flowers of the church building and in the end, the fire ran out when it got to the end of that line.

I wonder why they wasted time and damaged the building on the southern side to puncture and unneeded hole into the walls.

The church should just check if their money is missing. This is not fire fighting.

When fighting a fire of that intensity, you use containment strategies not direct ones which are much less efrective. From what you described they did the right thing.

banku:
I do not care about Burma Boy.

Does he have to cover all bills. The more you do, the more they want.

You can never satisfy greed, ingrates and instantaneous gratification that only exists in their "paradise abroad".

Lol what kind of talk is this? How does it concern the hospital who pays the bills? A bill is a bill and it has to get paid - there is no gratitude to be owed for paying of bills, rather, the patients are the ones to express gratitude to the boy.

Now, why was this statement necessary? Because news has gone around that all the bills were paid. So when some patients are now asked to pay their bills, won't it become a perceived case of fraud?


Repeat after me: "I will always engage my brain before I speak in public." Oya!

Namaster:
A galore of USELESSNESS!

First, there is the Devil calling himself a pastor who disturbs the WHOLE neighbourhood with loudspeakers.

You will not understand the FRUSTRATION of the neighbour if you've not had speakers BLARING into your room at 1 AM on a Wednesday morning because of vigil.

The screaming and stomping of the members would make you think thoughts that'll make you question whether you are really the devil.

How Christianity went from Jesus condemning Pharisees who pray in public to IRRITATING loudspeakers is still a mystery.

THEN, there is the USELESS new recruit flexing his NONEXISTENT muscles on civilians. If the recruits come face to face with bandits and terrorists now, they'd devolve into COWARDS and CRYBABIES.

But that's the ONLY thing the Nigerian Military can ever get right—intimidating and assaulting UNARMED civilians. When it comes to real THREATS, they are useless.

In fact Nigerian soldiers are so USELESS, it took TEN of them to assault just ONE DEFENCELESS man and TWO women.

YET the man and his wife are still standing GIDIGBA!

Very WEAK pussies.

Common sense ought to tell you not to judge matters from a report that is obviously written to favour one side. Do you have common sense sir?

mrvitalis:
Should the nigerian airlines not very given first right of refusal? As a means to support them

Trust me the people who would buy this jets are in APC/this government

Which of the airlines has complained? What do you expect them to do with tiny, unserviced jets other than to incur losses?

immortalcrown:
Did you find other prisoners flourishing?

Meanwhile, can Nigerian lawmakers visit a Nigerian in an American prison? In fact, has Nigerian lawmakers visited Ekweremmadu in UK?

They have.

Racoon:
And the demented mummified zombies of the Tinubu govt are telling us we should continue to endure hardship and oppression because of ethno-religious politics and parochial sentiments?

Those who protest alleged hardship back then in 2012-14 including Buhari, Tinubu, El-Rufai, Sowore, Wole Soyinka, Tunde Bakare, Laureate Onochie( palm guzzler ), Jide Kosoko have all gone deaf and dumb activists and social crusaders. They have forgotten that karma is a bitch. What you sow is what you reap. Posterity will never forgive you all.

Has anyone tied your legs from protesting?

RoyalUc:
Then he should start with himself and his executive arm. Or you think it's only the legislature that's wasting our resources?

Hey helinues, do you in all sincerity believe that "The president has no power to do that" if he wants to? I mean the Jagaban you know

You've made valid points and I aporeciate your mature approach to debate!

Yugoslavia247:
Thank God.

Women always appreciate help rendered them if their pussy is not involved.

If you want a woman to respect you and appreciate you. Make sure you do things for her and never have sex with her.

The moment you put your prick inside or ask for pussy. You have been paid. Even if na 1 billion dollars.

Know this and know peace

Na so respect dey hungry you?

dominique:
The only way he can successfully win sole custody from the mother is if he can prove that she's physically and/or mentally unfit to raise the child on her own. Someone like him that is hardly physically available to raise the child can never be granted sole custody in a competent court.

He is not asking for sole custody ma.

Ladiesdoctor:
Finidi should be sanctioned instead. His refusal to invite Troost Ekong spelt out his intention of witch-hunting some players in the team
The worst and most disappointing coach that has ever led super Eagles

I thought Troost was injured. Looking at that squad I just knew they were going nowhere. There are three players in Super eagles now that we can't play without. Troost Ekong, Frank Onyeka, and Victor Osimhen. This is the current spine of the team with Nwabali in the post.

GoodMen


Arthur Unaegbe a Senior military officer of Igbo extraction stood against the coupists when others fled. He refused access to the armory and was killed because of that. But they will tell you no Igbo man was killed in the coup and that the coup was an Igbo affair... A coup that has actors like lt. Olofimihan, col ademoyega,col banjo, and many more from north,west, east and midwest

The coup itself was a nationalistic affair. However, within the inner circle of those who planned the coup there were those who had their own agendas. Ifeajuna, for his failure to eliminate the senior officers in Lagos, was the major reason that coup failed. All evidence suggests he had been in contact with Major General Ironsi, instead of eliminating him as planned. Ironsi's survival (and Ojukwu's refusal to act in support of Nzeogwu), meant the end of the coup.

BigDawsNet:
People paying 40m are not waiting for any white collar jobs in abroad… they understand it’s very competitive…

Someone that pay 40m to japa will gladly take up a security job

I have a bank manager that arrived here few months ago.. his now a security guard and his racking millions at the end of the month in Nigeria exchange

What an irony. A man, rich by Nigerian standards, who could afford all the basic amenities and most luxuries, left Nigeria (ostensibly because there is no security) only to go and be the security abroad.

Tell me, wasn't he much safer as a big man in Nigeria than he now is as a security guard abroad?

BigDawsNet:
If you have the funds... pls go..


100milliions times.. abroad is more secure than our home country right now

Basic amenities
Power
Employment
Security
Health care
Future secured for your children




I won't mind paying 40m to enjoy that

Lol...you're paying 40m for a degree. The rest of those things are contingent on you getting a job in a shortage profession which is highly unlikely. Moreover, the things I've struck out are not guaranteed at all. You're not in touch with reality.

Whalis:
Good some persons do not understand.
Most of the turbine we use in Nigeria to generate electricity are gas driven. In this case they are called gas turbine. If gas supply is not adequate it will not produce electricity optimally. It will lead to rationing. And most times those who produce gas in Nigeria prioritize international markets that will yield them dollars. So even when we do not have sufficient supplies in Nigeria they would prefer selling to other countries Ghana inclusive.
Now they no longer supply to Ghana they would have no options than to revert it for local use. This means that there will be sufficient supplies for local use including our power generation gas turbine

If you read with an open mind you will understand me. Thanks.

Engineer thank you sir, though I don't know why you think one needs an engineering degree to understand that Nigeria uses gas to power its turbines. This is common knowledge. But you are skating around the kernel of the discussion:

When, where and which power plant in Nigeria has had to cut production due to a gas shortage? You should have some facts to back your hypothesis... a mere explanation that power plants use gas does not answer the question. You have said Nigeria's internal gas supply has been inadequate - where's your source?

Oga let him come to epl, playing against is not like playing in the league. Oga the guy na overrated guy.

Am I the one that will bring him to the EPL? I'm just telling you so far, we have seen that EPl teams are not a challenge for big Vic.
