I simplified that part it's a very complex process and not to individual per say but businesses

Say take pharmaceutical industry for example

You call Top 25 industry players...ask them

1) what do you import that you can produce here if money is not an issue and how much it would cost

2) what would it take for you to become a net exporter of drugs across say west Africa

They list their demands

You agree with them and banks

2 billion dollars made available to banks at 2 percent interest rate for 15 years first 5 years zero interest and zero repayment

Banks. Loan to this companies at not more than 10% interest with first 5 years zero payment


B) you think those companies that left Nigeria would leave if you offered them 100 million dollars 2% intense rate for 10 years with first 5 years no payment in exchange for more sourcing of materials locally?

Bros what you don't know is bigger than you
Developmental economics is no joke

Read your statement, you want to give a company 100 million dollars with zero interest for 5 years, who will give you the money when they know your tenure only last for 4 years?

World bank won't give you money to finance private enterprises, never, you can verify this as your boss will say.

Borrowing always comes with conditions, like China, they borrow you money, you engage their company in the construction, there's nothing like interest free loan anywhere, wake up.

The example you gave sounds lame, we already produce most of some drugs but the competition from fake peddlers won't let it flourish.

The only venture Worth investing in is agriculture.

Abufo:
They are about to find out what I G B O stands for....! I feel sorry for nigeria but that country will be judged for the bloodshed she has caused ! there is no way nigeria will not receive her due recompense! If God does not judge the zoo, then an apology is due to sodom and gomorrah! Ndigbo will be the executioners of that divine judgement! Men dey ........dey play!!

Is that all, even Israel is not waiting for divine judgement, you want to show Nigeria, do it yourself, all this story from the book of Lamentation, they are just words, God doesn't care about anyone with that much blood on his hands.

shortgun:
The federal government should stop behaving like a lawless rascal and release Nnamdi kanu

Use your shortgun😂

vanbonattel:
Even Maiduguri in the far north, Lagos in the west were all flooded, how much more Aba that is a few nautical miles from the Atlantic ocean that won't be flooded.

We know the useless propaganda is being sponsored by the Lagos Kano express media but Otti is doing better that all their governors.

Well done Alex Otti, you are the best.

I think the point is to set the record straight so in 10 years nobody will cook up a story of how, he was a messiah with Godlike metric, don't forget it has happened before.

thesicilian:
I can't lay down my life for any foreigner, with the way they treat us when we go to their lands.

I think the more troubling news is the fact that IPOD is going into kidnapping.

That's a bad precedent.

God1000:
I made it clear in my post yesterday that israel cannot fight Iran without US support and some people were not happy with me

We are not talking about Hamas and Hezbollah, but a regional power with a lot of military capabilities

There's little israel can do when it comes to Iran without USA

It's only the US air force that operates the strategic bombers capable of striking deep inside Iran, the question now is, will US support such operation which will ignite a wider war in the region


One thing I want people to know is that, whatever happens in coming days is because of US involvement which will not be made known

Aiding their ally in self defense?

That's what every country does, even Russian, even Iran, we rely on each other.

Israel is not a NATO member but it's US ally.

osuofia2:
Ole, we don't need any thief as a middle man

Very soon you will understand, marketers are not helping Nigerians, they just want more profit, they don't care if anyone is crying.

INTEGRITYA1:
What if the River State local government election is declare null and void due to the Court contentions?

Heeeeeee, I'm just curious ni oooo and na the question I I asked.

Nobody should come for me please.

Question no dey bring fight oooooo.

Just leave those celebrating, they have no idea what is going on, most people on Nairaland are children, they are just emotional about everything.

press9jatv:
yes so. He was a clueless coward to do that. Now Sanwo-Olu is almost completing his 8 years in power without tangible development under his leadership. Lagosians missed Ambode no be small. It’s only Almighty God that can bring Ambode to complete his second term in Lagos state. Tinubu godfatherism is much effective in Lagos State.

Without tangible development?

Are you in Lagos, this sounds like you read it somewhere.

udemzyudex:
Oga wake up.

Stop speaking confidently on things you know nothing about.

In politics, you have to be people smart, not logical or emotional.

I remember analyzing Edo election a year ago and this was the response.


Give it time, it will become clearer soon enough.

richmond500:
Wike structure has collapsed

He just bleeped up, now he will have to decamp or lose advantage to someone else in APP.

If you look at it very well, Wike won, those governors and pdp elders backing him will be furious, and he will lose them.

Then wike will sponsor the court case that will make it impossible for the local government chairmen to function and with federal backing the money will still be withheld.

And by the time it 4 years, he will have himself one leg in APP and the other in PDP, his lose will be profound.

richmond500:
Ok, there is a possible merger between Kwankwasor and Obi in 2027
Atiku/...
Tinubu/shettima
Kwankwasor/Obi

2027 go loud, Where is Wike in all these fights?

😂😂😂😂😂

Very funny,no merger,all of those people want to be president.

AntiChristian:


Oya uninstall LiteSpeed Plugin...................

Oya install................

Even version 6.5.1 is already out, this is like old news.

Bendeco02:
Yeah

Nigeria didn't start from 1999 and won't end by 2031.

Very funny, one thing you don't understand is, politics is about using people, that is what your people lack, they just make enemies and forget you always need people to achieve your goals.

Even referendum requires people.

Bendeco02:
I predicted this to happen on this site.

Many yoruba youths on twitter and nairaland don't have sense.

They tribalize everything and keep living in denial

If a Northerner warn or attack them online, they will be deceiving themselves that the person is not from north but from a particular tribe in south.

Tinubu is the last president from yoruba tribe. Before yoruba will rule again, that tribe they mock will rule ×4

Tinubu has succeded in opening other tribes eyes to see how tribalistic yorubas can be. The man has spoiled other SW politicians and youth political chances. But his mumu tribe's men don't know because they're shortsighted

Expect major crisis when he rig 2027 election. All regions will show them shege

Between 1999 and 2024, about 25 years, they have ruled 10 of those, I don't think there is any other tribe in Nigeria that have ruled that long.

You better just concentrate on your tribe.

Reggaero:
chai,so you need 50000$ to assemble an electroboard of a phone? nokia phone wey we dey buy for 15 thousand naira.

Even iphone 16 is sold for 4 million naira(highest price),16 pro and max wey never reach this world can never come out with that price

You even said that 50000$ is just for a so called electroboard
Meaning,if the company finally assemble the nokia phone,the company are going to spend more than a hundred of dollars,then the company are going to sell each phone for 14$,15$ or so

They gain profit abi?

Boss,no vex who you dey try impress with your lie

Impress? Most of you just assume we are all stupid together, I studied Computer science and information technology, I know this might be difficult for you to understand, but the main reason we can't boost of producing such devices is not because we are dumb, we just don't have that kind of funding.

Some secondary schools abroad have more funding than all the universities in some geopolitical zone put together, imagine some universities don't even have latest compilers to write programs, some still tech pascal in my time.

To answer your questions, yes, those machines are that cost, but because of volume, the cost are covered in the long run.

SocialJustice:
I'm sure Tinubu is irritated to his bones but just being a gentleman until 2027.

Irritated ke, he would be very happy.

The greatest move Tinubu made was giving Wike that position.

All the presidents of Nigeria usually face serious backlash with the governor of that state.

Imagine Wike attacking Tinubu with all these issues he has, Tinubu and his team won't be able to breathe.

Instead they are attacking themselves and he just have to watch, Tinubu is sound politically.

grandstar:
These so called creators usually go nowhere.

It can never be commercialised the normal route. It can't complete against the fiercely competitive Chinese brands and their huge advertised.

I think an online marketplace should be created to cater to these creators

I'm sure there'll be a collectors market for things like this

Young man, he hadn't done anything, to produce an electronic board, you need "Smd components mounting machine" that cost over. 50,000 dollars, this is not even manufacturing the board oh, this is assembling components on the board, then there another machine to program flash memory, ROM, processor, ICs, trust me. This doesn't come up to the level of assembling a phone.

Glimpsetv:
No, he did the programming and all.

Very funny, the programming involved in making a scientific calculator and embedding it inside an electronic board will cost a whole university final year computer graduate over 10 years to complete considering our present scientific knowledge.

Beside the technology is not available.

hopefulLandlord:
Na now you know?

Looks like you haven't read the book Christianity is based on? The book contains children friendly funny stories like talking snakes , talking donkeys, a virgin getting pregnant and giving birth, a piece of fruit confers knowledge, witches, magic tricks called miracles, demons cause disease, a god that got to scared of a tower being built that he scattered the plan but today we do space travel and he seems okay with that, zombies get up out of their graves and walk around Jerusalem, ghost stories, creator of the universe coming down to be killed by three nails etc.

Christianity has and will always be a joke, a child's play bro

Be careful of the type of joke you make.

Rseven:
Somebody said Obaseki is practically dead, how? He rule Edo state for 8yrs, meaning he won governorship race back to back. If not for political manipulation by Apc in collaboration with Inec, He would have still succeeded in installing a successor

Back to back?

A Child that his mother backs and walk for 5 kilometers will say he is strong, just give the chance to walk by himself, he will understand.

Obaseki can never win an election.

First term- Oshiomhole, shaubu
Second term- Wike, shaubu, hatred of oshiomhole

Lalami3232:

Admin abeg push this one to the front page so that E go serve as lesson to younger girls. As we dey talk so, alot of babes dey save money to do do yansh, all because of say the society dey make dem feel say who get yansh don get a valuable asset.
Make I pause here, I go come back to finish my comment later, arsenal dey give me BP for now

You think this will stop them, even if they will die in 24 hours after, they will still go ahead, poverty has eaten very deep into many.

ogbonti:
holistic holistic holistic DEI Kamala wont win

Baba, America is not ready for a female president- certainly not a president who os scared to hold an interview with the press

Are you an American? Just STFU!

JagabanB:
Obi has interest of young people and his region at heart?
That's funny to hear.
Someone who hiked tuition fees and said education is not for the poor during a heated protest in Awka all of a sudden has the interest of the young people at heart.
Those f00Iing themselves are great at doing it.
All of a sudden, Obi who annexed the 3rd tier of govt in Nigeria depriving the people of it's function for 7 years he was in power, swallowing their allocation and not performing their functions is the one that is doing governance right, has good governance lost it's meaning?
If a dîsàster like Obi is praised as someone doing something right, what do we tag people like Ambode and Sanwo-Olu?
What do we tag Sullivan Chime?
What do we tag Zulum etc.

Give it time, in 8 years time, people will sing Obaseki praise and elevate him to a godlike position.

If LP had won, Nigeria would have been redeemable, Nigeria would have been a country that is corruption free, fair!

He left PDP because they won't give it to SE person and that is all he did to become a saint. Do you know who else left for the same reason.

Kalu
Ebonyi governor (minister of works)
Even Wike decided instead of leaving and joining another politician party, he formed a rebellion and stayed, if anyone is a hero, a saint, it should be WIKE.

The person speaking is just angry, he invested in PO political career and didn't receive a return for his investment, this is his way of saying, I won't help you with money if you try to become President in 2027.

Speaking about Nnamdi Kalu, he didn't request for referendum, he requested for the whole of South East and South South like a price he got in an auction, he want to become a king, a ruler, an emperor.

He created a milicia to fight the existing military force and instruct his followers to kill anyone associated with Nigeria including THOSE WHO HE PRETENDS TO FIGHT FOR. There are milicia in almost all countries in the world, in US, they are the KKK, They want only the white in the country, are foreigners returned to their country, or be killed, if anyone white man stand with the foreigner, he should be killed as well.
Same in Lebanon, Iraq, Iran.

Lipscomb:
You guys should just stop stressing yourself the protest that will not yield any result. What Nigerian should wait for should be no election unless the country totally restructured.

I don't think you understand what is going on, everything is business in Nigeria.

Election, protest, court case, scandal, fuel scarcity, food scarcity, even death.

Human rights activists treat this period as Christmas.

arinkolashous:
Crying like a baby because of politics

He sponsored people from Atlanta to come and vote, only to lose, why won't he cry.

Do you believe someone will spend their money to come and vote in Benin, not even a presidential election.

MasterTeeUSA:
All propaganda. Israel has always and continues to have the support of the US and its taxpayers. Maybe it is time all the propagandists look up the funding of Israel Iron Dome and also look into history of Israel leaving Gaza and leaving some of the disputed territories due to losses.

All in all, the extremists on both sides will never find peace...because they are already indoctrinating the next generation of hate. An eye for an eye...a statement Jesus preached against. I am not sure the lovers of Zionists understand Jewish do not follow the Christian doctrine.

I once taught in a Jewish school, and I was shocked by how they revise history. Kids that have never stepped into Israel are already brainwashed into "Arabs are animals" and so on. I loved my students, but its the adults. They are always the problem. Children want to love, play and reach across...let them be. Let the children be children. Let LOVE win.

Firstly, no country fight alone, everyone relies on their allies, you expect them to fight alone when they are in the middle of people with deep hatred for them.

Secondly, take Nigeria for example, the reason Fulanis are ravaging through SS, SW, SE and NC is because NONE of these region want to fight back, we rely on Police, Army and the force (Dominated by Fulani and Hausa speaking individuals).

The day we fight back, that is when we will be free.

You expect them to just wait and do nothing and continue to endure or even allow the invaders to take possession of their lands. Never

fernandez1:
Abi oo

You see dis people above na wetin dem de read on Israel propaganda machine dem de spill.

I major on middle eastern conflict so I know what is going on in that region.

Most people are following what they read in the bible about Israel forgetting same Jews killed Jesus's christ.


Go to Israel today... they don't like both Christians and Muslims.

The way you said I major in Middle eastern Conflict like you created the region and wrote the books you read about middle east.

dinomalaiye:
Oshiomole is just gloating. The election results announced by Inec can never stand the test of time.

It just need to stand 4 and a half years.

Jevica:
These idiots supporting the atrocities of APC can’t even feed twice a days yet they borrowed data just to come here to spewed rubbish. Your children will inherit the hardship from you.

The election was not about APC or PDP, Edo people removed Obaseki and his Son from power, when the time comes, vote whoever you want for your state.

This is our decision not yours, you can paint different stories of buying votes for 20k, if you are not sick in the head, 20k times 290k people is about 6 billions naira, someone just decide to invest such because the state is full of gold.

N3TRAL:
Let’s be honest, if we adhere to the principle that non-performance should lead to removal, the people of Edo made a sound decision. They chose to vote out the PDP, which fell short on its campaign promises.

Ask any random person from Edo State, and they’ll likely tell you that Adams Oshiomole of the APC stands as the best-performing governor in the state's history.

While I personally disdain the mediocrity of the newly elected governor, I can understand the rationale behind Edo’s electoral decision.

Some people just expect us to show their anger by voting Obaseki who did nothing for 8 years.

Mrexcell:
I never expected anything less this is the first election under the drug lord expect the apc to win all coming elections at any cost.

This is the first?

You are certainly being living in darkness.
