Our issues are largely internal ones so changing partners wont do us any real good. The West weren't the ones who made us reject a sensible VAT sharing formula. They are not the ones running two constitutions within one country in favour of muslims. They dont do the actual looting for us neither. They are not stopping us from building important industries and sectors up. |
Many filling stations in Lagos, Ogun, Abuja, and Port Harcourt, among others, were closed on Saturday, as dealers explained that they were monitoring developments to make adequate price adjustments.What useless development are they monitoring when they know the depot prices already. This is the sort of unionism that has turned Nigeria into a buying-n-selling republic. Almost zero production. With this move, they have created a shortage in supply(scarcity) and set the prices on an upward trajectory they can come back to capitalize on. |
Animals deserve animalistic treatment. |
Instead of using the population as a reduction factor so populous states can try to be more productive, they are paying them for having idle & unproductive populations. Derivation should be 50% minimum to encourage production. Population should be 0%. Anything different from this will bring about harsh business environment to the industries by locals. They will use state laws to frustrate the industries and compensate themselves irrespective of what FG accepts. Owo mida menace is just beginning the if this formula is retained. |
Painful. |
AuItsene:You are showing signs of madness. |
Bobodee09:Even Attah admitted that OBJ acted according to the law on ground as at that time. He should have lobbied OBJ and his people for a change. |
Are they about to do a major bad thing like kidnap of students? |
Many do not know how to improve their schools so start adding funny tthings. Pools should be suppervised. Power system should be jealously guarded. Food properly prepared. |
Primary three kind of question. |
tiswell:it matters. If the circumstances of the separation is beyond her control what can she do differently until that point when she yielded? |
Family is bigger than a housing project and we know what Jesus said about he who desires to build a house. |
donself9:The only way to prove that petrol can be cheaper is if someone starts selling at a cheaper rate. You can refine your and let us see how cheap it will be. |
What was the circumstance that made her a single mother? Divorce, deadbeat husband, traggic loss of husband or separation due to irreconcilable differences? Poster should help us with the answer. |
I think we need tech savvy farmers more than youth farmers. To encourage youths, kits for all year farming should be made available to a wide range of farmers and youths. Irrigation kits, hydroponics kit, drone spraying systems, sprinklers, canopy sheet, nets and its structure. |
joytothewise:even if they sell to him in Kobo, it still translates to a dollar equivalent. |
donself9:you have the right to feel entitled to cheap petrol seeing Nigeria is a petroleum country, but remember the rice farmers, and how they used the intl price of rice as benchmark for their harvest, even after enjoying the lion's share of govt support to agric. |
These fools were so happy when they unleashed these beasts on GEJ and outed him. 10 years later no show and they are not seeing the much expected amnesty. They dont submit their natural resources to FG for sharing, dont pay VAT, like to share VAT, share Oil money, get assisted in agric massively, yet want to start another huge expense (amnesty) to be carried by VAT from Lagos or Petrodollar from Bayelsa. |
Tinubu isn't concerned about those, it 2027 thats their focus. |
That is what deregulation connotes but Nigerians like to believe it should be much lower than that and of a fixed price. |
You will provide a cover for his rigging operation. |
iwaeda:must you quote the whole epistle just to type out one paragraph? |
Vanity just changed gear. |
Marketters again. Always scheming for freebies that can sustain their excesses. |
Ask Ogunjobi now. |
Zooposki:tell another lie. |
Lol. Another week another piece chronicling the same narrative. Narrative of a slide down a well known path. The path of denied regression. |
Gwo3 Ngwo is what economy is dancing under Oga Bola. |
Mad Politician indeed. ^^^ The article talks about how low level staffs pocketting govt revenue or tolls on projects that have loan repayment schedule waiting to be fulfilled. That's a typical Nigerian showing their true colors. I also blame whoever approaches China on behalf of a whole nation to execute projects in constituencies that cannot repay loans because they believe they won a war of resources and should never have to pay for public utilities from their pockets. As for the state governors signing sub national agreements and therefore tying Nigeria as a whole into a messed up agreements, thats perfectly down to a structure that empowers states to spend freely but never asks what they do or motivates them to be productive or earn. I watched as El Rufai plundered Kaduna resources for his religion and then became the chief advocate for subsidy removal just to to keep states getting huge allocations and running. Why must economic units that spend unquestioned be created? No appraisals or submission to a higher authority. The structure we run was put in place to allow resources cornered by Hausa Fulani dominated FG in addition to Igbo and Yoruba, to spend unquestioned, SS resources, and this has led to culture of recklessness where the winners or emperors(governors) take it all. Two of the last four heads of Nigeria are were state governor at some point in their career and their tenure has turned out worse than those with no state governing experiences. Look at the national embarassment Ogun state just caused us. What do they have thousands of aides for? They are just a burdensome extention of the FG that brings nothing back to the FG save the cornered resources of the conquered regions. Before now the narrative was that the money other resources can bring in is too small compared to oil. But seeing that oil revenue has been oversubscribed by mouths waiting to be fed and most heavily, by debts to be repaid, the gap has been drastically closed, so why isnt anyone asking about gold and other resources? |
WritterNg:Finally you have denied the effect of the war. Putin is done playing the good guy to africans. I hope his next message about africa Africa resonates with this your new output. |
Nonsense. After deviating from reasonable norms and God's ways to attain wokeness, they begin chasing what should be chasing them by default. If any womb-man try shege with me, na thunda go fire am in advance before she reason me self. |
Not true. Speculators from a certain constituency have resumed their trade in stock. |
