FoodRe: How Nigerians Should Eat Swallows By Zeelicious Foods (Video) by SSpeter(m): 12:26pm On Nov 23, 2023
SoNature:
The inferiority complex of the black man is shocking.

Let me establish some facts here:

1. Apart from black Africans, no culture swallows food without chewing it.

2. Our forefathers who taught us how to eat swallow saw spoons and still preferred to use hands.

Therefore, nobody should tell anyone to use cutleries to eat swallow because those you even try to impress don't even know that the food is unique to you.

We should be bold enough to export our culture to the West; don't come here and infiltrate our culture with that nonsense.

If you want to use cutleries to eat swallow, good! But the culturally approved standard of eating swallow (which is only unique to black people) is bare hands!
while I appreciate your response, eating with your bare hand is a crude way of living.

Britain will Never allow that!

Royal house of England own SHELL DIRECTLY.

There friends owns Cheveron, TEXACO etc.
Nigeria is still being colonized.

It is not ordinary that Nigeria Refinery Got DESTROYED and made remained so. It is a DELIBRATE thing orchestrated By BRITAIN via there foot soldiers in and outside Nigeria.

This is further energized by Devaluation of Naira which they always encourage our Wicked Polithiefcians to do always.

The only antiodate to this network of wickedness is to use your Naira to Buy Dollars at lower rate from the Banks in and outside Nigeria and sell it Back to Naira at Black Market Rate. This is what everyone should be doing in Nigeria now instead of Japaing UNREASONABLY and UNNECESSARILY.

The Bank Cards of Access, UBA, PROVIDUS, PAGA, SPARKLE, FIRST BANK, STANDARD CHARTERED, Zenith Bank, Alat By Wema, Wema Bank Card itself etc can all be used to buy Dollars at lower rate and sell it at higher rate through: Skrill, Payoneer, Binance Gift Card etc.

The Banks are in Business to make money, and they do get there dollar from C.B.N who actually get the dollar from sales of Crude Oil activities of Nigeria.

This reveals that there is 3 types of Forex Rates in Nigeria namely: C B.N Rate, Commercial Bank Rates (Official) and Black Market Rate (Parallel).

Even if you have Japa, you can still go into this by learning how to use bank transfer and bank cards.

Before you Japa if you want to, make sure you open Dom and savings account with all the C.B.N licenced banks in Nigeria so that you can easily lock into this Antiodate to the Arficial Inflation Created By The Ruling Class in Nigeria in connection with International Monetary Fund I.M.F.

May we never be Slave for the rest of our lives ooo.
Stop gaslighting people that is not how it works.

EazyMoh:
A daughter is nothing less than a son. She should also inherit a part of her father.
Ok what if you only have female children? Your legacy then becomes terminated?
Now let me answer you as sincerely as possible. You see, culture is from time immemorial. Inherited properties cannot be given to females and there is a reason. If I acquire wealth, I can buy my daughters choice houses in their name. But I cannot give them an inherited property because it will be a great disservice to my sisters who should be first in line before my daughters and so it should have gotten to my aunties instead of my sisters. You see? If you have all female children, your inherited properties goes to your nephew or your brother. While the property you acquire yourself can go to your wife or daughters. Remember after your demise no one can touch the inheritance until after the passing of your spouse and your daughters all married

At a time petrol cars are no longer being manufactured worldwide, and the value of used petrol cars is falling through the floor globally, at such time refinery is about as useful as amala arriving on dinner table after the soup is finished.

Such is the way the Europeans that own Africa always ensure its a backward place. They will make sure Julius Berger of Germany is the only one able to build bridges in Nigeria, until the very day that only flying cars are being manufactured, then they will enable Nigerians to build their own bridges.

Petrol as an important forex generating commodity is dead. And so is the petrol car , atleast from a business/financial perspective.

The European owners of the world are running very fast to dead anything to do with petrol or diesel, that is why they are allowing Nigerians to build refinery now.

I can only estimate they will turn Nigeria into a global medical hub for people, when there are only robots left in the world.

When your enemy runs your country, they always make sure to bolt the door after the horse has bailed.

CBN and Nigerian economy is doomed cause they deliberately made the country too reliant on oil for forex.
For the last 2 decades the Europeans that own the world have been transitioning Saudi Arabia to high tech economy, but in 2023 they allow dangote to build oil refinery in Nigeria.
while your analysis is futuristic, demand for fossil fuels won't just disappear. The UK granted over 100 oil drilling licenses 2 months ago or so. Hence drilling in the north sea of Scotland is imminent

What's my business with all this things you dey talk abeg? Every Nigerian know what you're talking about, is not a secret and I don't understand why you're telling me.

Go and look at my first comment you quoted and tell me the correlationn it has with this your comment.

Now let me refresh your memory again cause you seem to just be arguing out of point.

Once the refineries start working in Nigeria next year, it will relieve pressure on the naira because the dollars will stay in Nigeria instead of going to refiners in Europe, North/South America and Asia.

This is my humble opinion in bold. How what you're now saying have a correlation with my point of why I disagree with the article is what I don't understand yet.
As a senior strategy analyst, I am telling you that it will not, until all the local demand is met and we still have extra for export and we inject those export proceeds into our legal FX market, the pressure on the naira will not ease. Know this and Know peace ✌️

In more than a decade it was just last Month that NNPC Ltd decided to buy in cash, which we are still observing after remitting Zero to the National coffers last year.

Well, am glad I have prove how the refineries operating in Nigeria next year will lead to less pressure on the naira.
Whatever being an obedient is to you is your prerogative. Economic policies is not between FG and Obedients, rather it is between our market economy and market forces. Less I forget one Obedient was made an SA recently, while during the past administration I had written papers on Macroeconomics and Fiscal policies to both the ministry of Finance and CBN. Rather than consult with me or engage in my proposal what CBN did was to offer me a job, at one CBN branch in Umuahia, cheesy, not everyone is looking for crumbs.

I proved to you dollars made from Dangote refinery will stay in Nigeria, instead of you to be grateful, you have started another round of wailing foolishly.

We're talking about A, you're talking about B grin
To be grateful for what exactly? You seem to be dumb? Dangote brought in dollars over how many periods, how consistent was it? Patriotism doesn't make me stupid. I have benefited from Nigeria far from what you can ever get. It doesn't make me to stop questioning inefficient and ineffective policies. If you think constructive criticism is painful then that's is for you to worry about. During my secondary school days in Lagos, my Jets club won several gifts from LASG and I got laptop computers when I was 14 when Pentium 2 was over 300k. I cannot even count cash prizes and other gifts to free scholarships. You cannot tell me about patriotism. You are just one Nobody on a faceless forum jingling about a sensational headline

Look at Dangote repatriating close to $700M to Nigeria from other countries. Click the link below and read.

https://www.thecable.ng/dangote-weve-repatriated-over-687m-through-our-africa-operations/amp

Even if we pay Dangote in dollars to buy refined crude from him, his dollars will remain in Nigeria, is not going somewhere else.

And Dangote refinery is not the only refinery that will be operating next year.
OK, let me agree to the repatriation, but please it was over what period? So Dangote brings in close to a billion in five years or four years cos the article didn't specify and do we build up analysis from it and how sustainable it is? Only change of cars for the executive, legislators and Judiciary in less than two years will wipe out the funds we are talking about

Dangote is a Nigerian, his dollars will remain in Nigeria.

Dangote refinery is not the only refinery that will be operating by this time next year in Nigeria.
Dangote will get the dollars from where? From the one you and I are using to buy petrol? Don't think you will sell crude to Dangote in Naira and buy refined petrol in Nigeria. This is because, his bulk expenses for maintenance and services for the refinery will be in dollars. Now let me enlighten you, the modular refinery produces diesel, kerosene and crack naptha and not PMS. The cost is not viable for modular refineries to produce PMS. Petrol is our largest demand. Sorry the modular refinery would not help as much as you assume.

I still stand my ground.

Dangote refinery, modular refineries and NNPCL refineries will reduce the pressure on the naira
Economic activities do not care about your ground, or my opinion, it is what it is. You are not going to pay Dangote in Naira? Dangote will not give you refined petroleum free of charge? You do not have the dollars to pay for it either? Hence, you continue to Swap, unless Dangote exceeds local demand and begins to export then we can ask him for the export proceeds. Body language doesn't work here

Thank you for sharing this insightful analysis. It's always beneficial to have diverse perspectives on economic matters. While the challenges outlined are notable, it's important to remain optimistic about the resilience of the Nigerian economy. Efforts by the central bank to clear forex backlogs and address issues impacting the naira are steps in the right direction. With careful policy considerations and adaptive measures, there's potential for stability and growth. Let's hope for positive developments and collaborative strategies to navigate these challenges successfully.
CBN policies, hope and patriotism does not solve currency issues. You have to move from consumption to production with minimal corruption

Milk is a luxury in Nigeria. The poor can't afford to use a tin of liquid milk that costs over #500. Some don't even think of using milk. Thank goodness for those sachets that cost #100
Devaluation and corruption made your currency weak and poverty skyrocketed. I knew security men who would come to our local kiosk in the 90's to buy a tin of peak for 19 naira, in the 90's you hardly get powdered or sachet milk, it was affordable to all those who had something doing. It was never a luxury item

Philipponzaghi:
Fuel will not crash with the amount we want. Maximum reduction won’t be more than #50 reduction.

The only good thing about the refinery is that the $$ we spend importing will now be used for something else and like that it could help with your FX issue.

If $$ to naira rate come down, petrol price come down too.
we don't spend dollars importing, what we do is crude swap, we give the refineries crude in exchange of refined petrol products. With Dangote, it will be the same crude, therefore there is no immediate benefit. The only way Nigeria will benefit is if Dangote produces enough and begins to export hence the much needed FX can be generated.
