Never date a girl that doesn’t respect your wife…😕😕

lordm:
This mad man should be detained before he releases more annoying noise called music

Mad man dey buy data 😅

helinues:
Should we say some people have stopped taking responsibility for their personal needs without allowing the situation to deteriorate

Because this one that any small thing, government must be responsible. Are the so called politicians Aliens from Pluto? Are they not the same products of the Nigeria community which refused to produce good products.

The yahoo boys, the Oloshos, the criminals, abeg where are their parents? Are those also government?

I really didn’t want to say anything but after carefully reading your comment, I now believe without any doubt you’re being paid.
The government has the sole responsibility when there are indications such as high depression in the country.
Let me give you an example since everything that happens in Nigeria we compare it to the west. During Covid, here in Norway the Government noticed that people were seeking mental health more due to high interest rates, increase in rent, food prices etc.
The Norwegian Government did a lot to change that, I will tell you to some point they were literally giving free money just to help the citizens.

You as a local champion that don’t know anything just type jargons.

And just before you start screaming IPOB, I am proudly a northerner, I was even supporting Atiku.

He will only be able to chain you if you allow him to, break away from mental slavery my brother.

This world bank can confuse person like my uncle.
My uncle once said “ never date a girl who doesn’t respect your wife”

Salewa97:
The proposed subsidy is for all Nigerians abi?

Why are some people making it look like the proposed subsidy is only for the poor?

The price of fuel affects all, the proposed subsidy would also affect all.

What's the problem?

I am beginning to believe some nairalanders that you guys are bots that post things which do not make sense.

Why are you asking these questions?

He made a valid point: if something is not done urgently the rate of crime will become alarming.
Hard reforms is necessary but it needs to be done wisely, if not, it will consume the whole nation.

Am so sorry for what happened to you. But from the pictures you posted, it really doesn’t look like that injury is fresh.

Nigerians aren’t making so much noise about N1000/litre petrol due to improved power supply - Power Minister, Adelabu

The Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu, says that Nigerians have ‘stopped’ complaining about the hike in petrol price because they no longer need it to run their generators due to constant electricity supply.


The minister stated this while speaking in Abuja on Tuesday, October 15. Last week, the NNPCL increased the pump price of petrol at its retail outlets from N868 per litre to N968 per litre in Lagos and above N1000 in some other regions. The astronomical rise in the price of petrol led to the sharp increase in the cost of transportation, food items and other essential household commodities in Nigeria.



During the conference, Adelabu said;



“People don’t need to buy petrol again as much as they used to do for them to have power. That’s why the noise is even at this level. If they had to be going to the filling stations to buy N1000 per litre of petrol to generate electricity, we would have even had louder noise from the public.

So, what we intend to do is to make sure that all the generators are replaced in line with Lagos State Policy of Replacement of 1 Million Generators in One Year. I saw that. We must replace all the generators.”


In the same breathe, the minister lamented Nigeria’s abysmal performance in the area of power generation, stating that the country added only 2000 megawatts of power to the national grid in the last 40 years dating back to 1984.



“But we are over 200 million people, we are still celebrating achieving 5000MW milestone. Why this seems to be an achievement is because it took us almost 40 years to generate additional 2000MW from the 2000MW milestone we achieved in 1984. When we came to the office, we met 4000MW.

Now, we have taken it to average of 5000MW, with a peak of 5,527MW on the third of September. But we are not deterred. If the last best time was 50 years ago, I believe the next best time is today, and this must wake us up. So, it’s an issue I don’t like to remember”, he said

TheOldGods:
lol. Bacteria can die by just exposing them to raw fire. We did this experiment in my final year in microbiology lab

I don’t know which is more scary, you being a microbiologist or you referring to HIV as a bacteria. Even from the name, that should give you an insight it’s not a bacteria.
Nigeria is in a mess.

A lot of people didn’t take time to read that the bill from the National Assembly. It states that:

Corporate Income Tax (CIT) TO BE REDUCED TO 27.5% BY 2025
Meanwhile, the bill also proposes a reduction in the corporate income tax (CIT) to 27.5 percent by 2025 — down from 30 percent — and a further cut to 25 percent by 2026.

Let’s dig deep and see the Pros and Cons of this action.

Reducing income tax while increasing Value Added Tax (VAT) on goods and services can have mixed effects on citizens in Nigeria, depending on their income levels.

Pros:

1. More income for workers:
A reduction in income tax means that workers and will take home a higher portion of their salary, which could stimulate spending and improve living standards for some, especially middle- and high-income earners.

2. Incentivizing work and investment:
Lower income taxes can encourage more work, this would definitely push a lot of Nigerians to apply for corporate jobs etc.

3. Broad tax base from VAT:
VAT is a consumption-based tax applied to goods and services. It spreads the tax burden across a larger portion of the population, including tourists and those in the informal economy, which could increase government revenues in a way that’s less dependent on a smaller group of income earners.

Cons:

1. Regressive impact of VAT:

VAT is considered regressive because it affects low-income households more than high-income ones. Poorer households spend a larger portion of their income on necessities, so they bear a heavier relative tax burden under VAT, even if their income tax is reduced.

2. Increased cost of goods and services:
Adding or raising VAT can lead to higher prices for everyday goods and services, which can reduce the purchasing power of citizens, especially those in lower-income brackets. This might cancel out the benefits of reduced income taxes for many people.

3. Potential inflationary effects:
A VAT increase can push prices up across the economy, potentially contributing to inflation. This can erode the value of the additional income from the tax cut, particularly for lower-income citizens who already struggle with the cost of living.

4. Impact on consumption:
If VAT increases make goods and services more expensive, it could lead to reduced consumer spending, particularly for non-essential goods, which could hurt businesses and slow economic growth.

Conclusion:

For wealthier individuals and those who save a significant portion of their income, a reduction in income tax might offset the VAT increase, leaving them better off. However, for low- to middle-income earners, especially those who spend most of their income on basic goods and services, the VAT might disproportionately hurt them by increasing living costs, despite the income tax reduction.

It’s clear this bill will favour the rich and not the low income earners.

Abi dem node fear HIV again

Chances of you getting HIV with their clippers is very slim.
I am not saying what they are doing is right or you can’t get it with the clippers. But the probability is very low.

Even pharaoh didn’t do half of these to the people of Isreal. Tinibu, please let my people go

You’re surprise why they keep increasing even after arresting a lot. Be prepared to arrest a lot more. I am not the one to start saying Tinibu’s govt this that. But we should tighten our belts because arm robbery will increase, prostitution will be rampant, ritualists will be flocking around like crazy. All I know is a sensible and caring government will definitely foresee all this and look for ways to reduce the effects while trying to solve “the problems”

No, but the mofo that wrote these long epistle of ads will be paid 15k by the person they lick his a”s

SocialJustice:
Will I be paid to read this?

P.A.P PAP but not Akamu. People’s Actions Party

This Mugu no even fit reach break time for the new job.

if really he was your brother and he is no more now I would have to say I am really sorry for your loss.

MEGAWATCH:
This my late brother picture you dey carry up and down because of this useless Nigerian issues, NA GOD GO JUDGE YOU.

Widen the tax net, reduce their purchasing power. You think he was joking.

Number 4 is deep hmmmmm

Look at someone that is begging even saying na wa oh, if it’s easy why didn’t you make it and take care of your family. See, you being in your condition is nobody’s fault. Mr Kazeem, shei Tinibu that you voted into power hasn’t given you corn to eat?

SmartPolician:
That thing is an agbadorian; don't waste your time on those folks. But then, I don't think there's any need reversing fuel subsidy removal. It was costing Nigeria a lot of money and it needed to go. We should explore alternatives. CNG is a cheaper alternative to PMS.

Even the CNG you’re talking about it’s crap. I have a friend that converted his Corolla. First, you still have to use fuel in your car, that is what you’ll need to start the car. Secondly, the sound of the car was really different from the normal sound of cars. He also had to refill the gas after a week or at most 10 days. More importantly, have there been any research on the dangers of the CNG in cars? There’s a lot of European countries that have abundant of gas and that would have been a cheaper alternative. Have we asked ourselves why India or China haven’t jumped on this opportunity even with their vast population?

In life, one person you have to be very scared and wary of is someone who has nothing to lose. But when you start having that in millions in a country, it’s mind blowing and something needs to be done like yesterday.

Protesters are regrouping again, stay tuned for more

Happening in Kaduna, protesters were pushing their way into the Government House and burning tires. They injured some men of the Police.
