Give up. Standing5 is raping you with points that your grunts will soon turn to ecstasy

DaBullIT:
Help us ask Fayose how much he has borrowed so far ?

blackpanda:
Try and learn, its not about winning argument. Its about fact and reality.
You see what u typed above, is the burden of debt in ogun state or niger state shifted to FG?? Dont make noise abt what u know nothing abt.

Btw it wasnt an insult. Rather its just ur ego that makes u think so.

blackpanda:
Honestly its amazing how people reason. Do u know what infrastructure means?? Let me ask u this. Would u rather borrow N10million to just pay salaries and then empty ur treasury jst so that the state is not indebted, or will u borrow a N1billion and spread it over 30yrs then use to build schools, roads, portable water, electricity etc?

What really is the point of having govt if not provision of basic amenities? After paying your workers salary, what next? Will they pass bush to work? Go to the stream to fetch water to drink? Or eat sand for food?? I know u are much smarter than u pretend to be.

blackpanda:
U see sometimes, if u dont know what to say its best to keep quiet. A school of thought once said "it is better to be quiet and be thought a fool. Than to speak and erase all doubt". Below is US states ranking of indebtedness and almost no growth. But the infrastructure in these cities are second to none. Debt is not the enemy. Its about spending the funds wisely

blackpanda:
And also, it does not matter whether the governor borrows beyond his tenure, cos government is a continuum. So long as the funds are used for developmental projects that will improve lives and yield revenue in the long run. Asking a governor not to borrow means he shld only be entitled to funds that must be paid back in 4yrs. That does not sound realistic.

blackpanda:
There is no state or country in this world that does not borrow, including america and china. Borrowing is not the problem, rather ability to manage the borrowed funds for the purpose it was borrowed and to pay back as at when due.

Bro, I didnt start now neither am I looking to start now because I started around 2010 and I understand what the journey has been like. I also know and work with those who started in 'this' economy and what they are facing...

Motivation has its place but reality is superior. So, I guess it is left to those reading to figure out how to juxtapose the inspiration from this thread and how much their appetite for risk is.

Besides, success 'stories' are sweeter when told by successful people because you only hear about an elaborate narration of every bit of 'hardship' they experienced while they willfully leave out what was going well for them especially the resources, people and support they had.

And my point is, be realistic, properly examine the bulshit that might be driving you and always remember that doing business is an investment and there are no guarantees especially as a startup.

If anyone is discouraged by my lil talk, it simply means, that that idea and the drive to see a business succeed is not mature enough and I just saved you from a failed business.

What's tha business?

importexpert:
dangote, dantata, otedola, all our indigenous banks and other successful businesses are all aware of such pitfalls. their difference with you is that they saw it as a challenge they must tackle and defeat and you see it as an obstacle that will not allow you to do anything.

Ahh more food for zombies to divert attention from hunger.

Almajiri1:
Has the fulanis and host communities not been having healthy interactions up until recently?Why the sudden escalation?why is the government not holding the registered fulani herdsmen accountable?Are these people really the fulanis that has lived and interacted with their host communities for long and even inter married?

Almajiri1:
I'm talking of nature's free grass.If the cows venture beyond their boundaries and accidentally stampede or graze on farmlands,In some communities with working understanding between the herders,penalties are paid.

Some fulanis are known to pay like two to three cows yearly for access to graze on the community common properties.Fulanis are also known to ne scammed in this process.Fulanis and the host communities can live in peace once there's understanding and trust from both parties.This is an easy thing to solve if we had the right leaders.

Almajiri1:
Anyone from the community.

Almajiri1:
The fulanis are neither complaining.infact,they are happy rendering such services to the nation and deserves respect.All they are asking for is free access to nature given grasses to feed their animals and maintain the current low price than is obtainable in other worlds.

Almajiri1:
What you have failed to do is to understand and see through the eyes of the fulani boy.

Fulanis are been killed too with their cows stolen at will.Both the fulanis herdsmen and farmers deserves justice to which the government has responded with the grazing bill.

Almajiri1:
These are verifiable facts.The fulani are not nurturing SMART-COWS which has the ability to know that a small farm might be hidden in the midst of a forest.

Almajiri1:
You are a consumer as long as you've ever been served with Fulani cow meat which facts have shown are the cheapest when compared with other worlds.

Almajiri1:
Until there's a clear cut distinction between private property and common property in Nigeria,there are bound to be infractions between the herders and acclaimed owners.

In civilized societies,private properties are well defined and secured against unauthorised access.likewise farmlands are well mapped out and common property left which can serve for cattle grazing and can be used by everyone in the community.

Almajiri1:
I submit that the only permanent solution to this little misunderstanding between the herders and consumers, is for the consumers to prepare grazing corridors as a green carpet reception across the length and breadth of Nigeria as a sign of Respect for the unsang patriotic fulani herdsmen who has been feeding this nation with endless supply of meat.
