alphaNomega:
You are still giving another textbook analysis.

Let's say the price regulatory agencies maintain the cost of goods and services despite giving every Nigerian N5m naira. That's one of the points OP pointed out

You make me laugh.

Who produces those goods? Who offers the services? The person with free #5m?

control price? never sustainable in any market. If I produce at #10, you can't force me to sell at #10; I must add my markup.

PNomsule:
It appears the responders I'm getting on this issue are plain textbook analysis and not even addressing the issues from the points I posited, especially that the fears you raised, my post envisaged it already?

Can prices be controlled, if not what then is the usefulness of the Pricing Regulatory & Control bodies we have in the country?

What happens to the urgency of Capitalists to get more people employed as to meet rising demands associated naturally from too much money chasing fewer goods?

I can see that you bought into the "Capital is the key to economic growth" scam. It's a pure scam from the west to keep Africa poor. Productivity is the only route to sustainable economic growth, not the sham growth from influx of capital. China grew from being productive, not flooding everywhere with cash.

Even in the Western model that uses monetary rates to drive growth during recessions, they tighten their belts during periods of inflation by raising rates to reduce the money in circulation, which would in turn bring down inflation. Flooding the market with money leads to excessive inflation and a bubble, which would eventually burst and you end up with a recession or even a depression. The current rising inflation globally is a result of the excess cash floated to tackle COVID-19. The excess cash caused a bubble, so much so that people started paying hundreds of thousands and even millions of dollars for jpegs (NFTs) and shitcoins were doing 100x and more. Well, the bubble has bursted as the Fed started applying breaks (raising interest rates). Despite the threat of recession, the Fed isn't removing their leg from the break anything soon (maybe 2023/2024) because it's better to tackle inflation than end up with stagflation.


You talk about price control mechanism. Experience has shown that you can't forcefully control the market, it always backfires. The best is for the market to control itself through competition.

Printing money, especially during periods of inflation is calling for a bubble. When the bubble bursts, it's always catastrophic.

Congratulations young man. You did great retracing your steps. Keep flying higher man.

Go see a cardiologist. You need a thorough examination and work up. They will have to check your Kidney function.

At least, they must check your electrolytes, urea, and creatinine and do abdominal scan to check your kidneys. Their findings would determine whether to refer or manage themselves.

OkoRemi2023:
you seems to be a medical expert, your analysis was straightforward and comprehensive



please help me look into this brother



a street friend though is well to do, him and his gf stay far away and you know this girls you can hardly trust them, my guy have trust issues perhaps because of their distance relationship



she came over, they had sex on 24th stroke 25th of June, she was suppose to see her next period on 7th of July, she didn't see it, she informed my guy about it, my guy was worried but the babe said she should calm down that it might be because of stress or sth, till on the 11th of July the period didn't show, so my guy force her to do x-test on the 13th of July, that urine test and it came out positive that she's pregnant though they're yet to go for ultrasound test



what's the possibility of him owning the pregnancy please?

Sorry for the late reply; I don't frequently visit here.

If truly her period was to start on the 7th of July, then she ovulated on the 23rd of June. Depending on the time, her egg could survive by the time she visited on the 24th. If sex happened on that 24th, there's a chance the guy could be responsible for it.

But let them do ultrasound to find out if the pregnancy if way beyond. For example, if the ultimate says 14weeks, she's already pregnant before coming to visit your guy, but if it says 10 weeks, then pregnancy resulted from the June ovulation — it could be from your friend but could still be a foul play (sex a few days before the visit to your friend).

henrixx:
you're wrong. hcg levels can be detected in the blood as early as 7-10 days after conception which means many pregnancies can be detected before a missed period even on a home strip test.

it's a 50-50 for OP. but I think from the story the lady is likely playing games

I understand that some people have a hard time understanding or following arguments.

Your response is in order, but I'm not contesting the validity of the test, but the timing vis-a-vis the intention.

A woman doing a PT 13days after sex (without waiting to miss her period first) shows she's anticipating something!

Ngozi123:
I am telling you from experience that an early detector pregnancy test can tell you when you're 1-2 weeks pregnant. They only count it from conception though.

So a woman who's last period occurred 5 weeks ago (which is how long a doctor would determine her pregnancy to be) would actually see a result of 1-2 weeks on her pregnancy test.

Google "Clearblue Early detection test" if you don't believe me.

You aren't following my argument. I said no normal lady would do a random PT 13days after sex.

But if someone has a plan or is expecting something, she would. For example, someone on fertility treatment or praying for a long time for pregnancy might start checking earlier out of anticipation.

The lady here doing a test on the 12th shows she's anticipating something that's why she couldn't even wait until she misses her period before doing the test.

Wizmj4real:
Was it blood pregnancy test you guys did
If yes, it doesn't tell the duration.
take her to a neutral place and do ultrasound scan to determine the duration of the pregnancy
Then if the time frame coincide with when you both had fun sorry to say you're responsible but if there's a disparity from the set day from the scan result then it's possible she had sex some few days or even the previous day and wants to pin the shit on you

Sperm stays 72hours in a woman's body after
sex, during this period the sperms travels to fertilise the eggs that a matured and once fertilised there won't be a second fertilisation.

If a girl gets pregnant after 2 days she can have sex with someone else an try to pin it on the later if she's not comfortable with the first person

Bro tell your fiance and be ready to be a father if it turns out the timing coincide

Ultrasound is a waste of money. Cannot stand in court. The earliest ultrasound have +/- 1week accuracy. But he may do it for doing sake in case the girl try to pin a 2 month pregnancy on him.

Ngozi123:
It's possible. Especially if she's pregnant with twins or multiples.

@OP, she might be telling the truth. There's some early detector pregnancy tests that will show a positive result even 1-2 weeks after conception. You should have her do an ultrasound to get a more accurate result, though.

Not true. It's an obvious setup, and here's why:

No matter the menstrual period, menses start coming 14 days after ovulation. And it's after the period is missed (doesn't start on the expected day) that a woman becomes concerned about pregnancy — many women won't even bother until several days later to give room for normal body variation.

So, even if she ovulated on that 30th July, she wasn't supposed to expect her menses until 13th and could only get concerned by 14th (the whole of 13th must pass because it could have been by night) if she's that sensitive. If she ovulated on the 29th, there's a chance the egg has died by 30th because eggs last 12 hours (at most 24hrs) but even at that, she would be expecting the period on 12th and would only panic and go for test by the next day, 13th (the whole of 12th must have to pass because it could flow at any moment) if she's that concerned.

A test done on 12th shows it was a trap, and he walked into it.

At Op, the chances of being the father is low. Nobody does a random pregnancy test 13 days after sex.

My question is this: how is this Jewish deity different from the Sango and Amadoha of our forefathers?


Who can prove it?

My question is this: how is this Jewish deity different from the Sango and Amadoha of our forefathers?

Seriously looking for who can prove that it's different.

This is a money laundering case. Someone is planning for life after office.

Your pastor tells you that God says vanity upon vanity......

But asks you to give him money so that God will give you back in multiple folds.

Mom007:
Are you sure you live in Lagos? Why are you celebrating and worshipping mediocrity like this? What exactly is in Lagos that is making you ready to sell all Nigerians into another level of slavery, fear and suffering worse than we have ever seen before? Of all the so called achievements you listed, how many of them have not been hijacked by wicked politicians as though their private property? How many of them are you as a common Nigerian benefitting from personally? Or are you one of them? Feeding from their same wicked pot?

Funny enough, those were Fashola and Ambode projects

Kagd10:
Yet your Peter Obi without achievement in his Anambra state, lives in Tinubu's Lagos. The joke is on you and Peter Obi.

While Peter Obi was graduating with D pass in philosophy, Tinubu on the other hand was working as a first class accountancy graduate for international companies such as, Arthur Andersen, Deloitte, Haskins, Mobil etc

Tinubu fought for the democratic government and free speech you enjoy today while your Peter Obi was nowhere to be found..

While Tinubu was improving Lagos and initiating wonderful ideas in Lagos such as lekki trade zone, BRT, Lekki seaport, Eko Atlantic, millennium schools, policy to increase Lagos revenues etc..

On the other hand, your Peter Obi was investigating his state funds into his family business . Now he lives in Tinubu's Lagos.

No way you can sell your monumental failure of Peter Obi who's got no achievement whatsoever and lives in Tinubu's Lagos where Tinubu initiated Eko Atlantic, Lekki seaport, lekki trade zone, BRT enormous increase in Lagos revenue etc.

Obi helped Anambra get an international airport (money for the airport was secured by him), Changed the entrance to Onitsha from headbrigde, reshaped the face of Upper Iweka, modernized Anambra education system (with many awards to show for it), laid good foundation in health care (building state university teaching hospital at Awka), gave the government of Anambra a secretariat, built Odumegu Ojukwu University (Igbo Ariam), created Awka/Onitsha/Nnewi master plan, and many more.

Built fire service stations in many towns in the state. Any town with a sizeable market and economic activity got a fire service stations. Though the successor didn't maintain most of them after he left. I was schooling in Enugu then and had friends schooling in Anambra, so I know a lot about Obi's tenure in Anambra.

Stop bigotry !
Mary was of age, the Bible make it clear she was legally married to Joseph. In the Jew law,a girl must be up to puberty before set for marriage,most parents delay until 18 & 24. So according to Jewish customs and with reference to Bible scholars, she was married to Joseph around 13 and 16 respectively. Around 18 she gave birth to Jesus and that was considered holy. With reference to science we know white children grow faster, while we in Africa consider it teen to our black children,they consider it matured and very strict with laws. 6yrs is a child, wickedness and barbaric. Ask yourself as a father, is your child matured at that age? From 12yrs in Europe I've seen girls like youths. So get corrected and don't use that to justify your ignorance of the scriptures.

Mary had Jesus better 12 and 14 years. Get your facts right.

hamedollar:
Nigerians are likely to be facing another doom in the next four years.

All the major candidates people are clamoring for have their shortcomings.

Starting from Tinubu is old, his party brought hardship to masses. And he enjoys moving with touts

Atiku is clueless, he has no vision, he just wants to be there as Mr president.

Peter obi, if he won Biafra will come out stronger and a quick way for Nigeria to separate. Another regret awaiting to be falling on Nigerians

I don't believe your assertion about Obi. Obi winning the election will permanently put an end to the Biafra agitation, just like Jonathan helped calm the Nigerdeltan agitation (MEND) then.

Moreover, if you know Obi, you will know he's a nonsense man.Obi doesn't support Biafra and his psychological makeup is not the type for giving undue privilege based on where one is from. He would rather throw his family under the bus than have them undermine his self-righteousness.

I have an elder brother like that. Funny enough, he looks exactly like Obi and wears similar glasses. Dude is a priest in Europe but would never help any of his siblings crossover to Europe. It's that bad for those species of human beings. As a sibling or relative, you will almost hate them, but on the other hand, they are often very efficient and good in what they do.

You want proof?
1. Do you believe in the Bible? If not it will be foolish to proof anything to you. Read about prophecies.
2. You've heard, you've read about the miracles confession about him everywhere, but you choose to turn deaf.
3. The Holy spirit (the comforter)
4. Since you need proof as non Christian. I call on Our Lord Jesus whom I believe and on the third day after death rise again, to bring to you and anyone connect you a great lost & paralysis (in business, health, family, career etc). In 3days,comeback here and remind me of proof.

Hahahaha

Hahahaha LOL

That's exactly what I was expecting. You Christians and emotionalism. Nothing concrete, just emotional outbursts. Reason I tend to believe that nothing is real about everything written in your books — just delusions and hallucinations. Nothing real. It's all about emotions — the interplay of fear, hope, belief, and confidence. Nothing supernatural about it. That's why, instead of addressing my question, you started raining curses, thinking you can trigger my fear response. Unfortunately for you, the fear center in my Amygdala has been blocked a long time ago.

If your claims are real and there's a supernatural being, you can prove it without getting emotional. If your God is real, walk into Igbobi and call on him to restore an amputated limb of any of the amputees there. This would even help your own faith. But deep down within you, you know that if go there and call him from morning till night, nothing will happen — just like the Baal prophets in that funny story.

Don't worry, I know what you are going to say. But in that case, both you, Elijah, and everyone who believes that story owe Baal, his prophets, and the entire world an apology — for having the audacity to tell Baal when and how to answer prayers!

ugolightswel1:
Mind you all, Christ suffered the same fate and

he conquered and established it on a strong rock. when he said thou are Peter upon him will i establish my church and the gate of hell shall not overcome it. Matthew 16vs18.

Saul, later paul was a terrible persecutor but later acknowledge the fact that

the faith was bigger than him; he succumbed and followed christ.

Remember Rome of today you dear never try it but today it's the epicenter of the largest church in the whole world the Catholic Church.

Infact let me tell you; the earlier the better.
hence he created you he can overcome you, your faith, and your nation at anytime.

Uk and the rest of western world, Arab not left out, are playing with fire.

Can this your God be empirically proven with consistent result?

Did he steal? They caught him trafficking? Drugs? Did he kidnap? Did he insult people? Was he caught selling human parts? Yahoo or Yahoo+?
This is what gives us Christians joy, because our voice are being heard.

Others hide their gods, we can't hide Jesus not even today. We're proud to preach Jesus to people. Let them come and preach their gods to us. Some believe in nature, some call themselves atheist, some say moon and whatever. If so, then be proud go out and preach what you believe to people then come back and insult Christians. We'll keep preaching has he said. JESUS is Lord!

Can you proof that this your Jesus exist?

Not about the topic of the thread, but can someone help with this?

What's the theology of seed sowing?

"Baba God I don dey beg make you give me this contract and you no gree. Abeg hold this one and run this contract for me."

How some of you claim to be tracking the election results without following up with the number of canceled votes. That's the most important number APC uses in any election they cannot win.

It's your responsibility to let the people around you know what you do for a living.

Even someone who has a physical shop needs to let people know where he's going. They should know what he sells.

There's no reason why your neighbours let alone your landlord shouldn't know what you do.

People like you and your people always think of Yahoo anytime someone mentions, "working from home, online jobs, or online business"

Do the survey yourself and tell me if I'm wrong. Many don't even bother explaining again, because you and your people will never understand.

beardedboy:
Funny of you. I have a completely remote job with a tech startup so no need for the chest beating.

Even if you're working online, you source of income is still verifiable. Don't you have an appointment letter? Don't you holf meetings with your co-workers?

Anyone who wants to do the right thing will not have problem with all these flimsy excuses.

And you carry all those documents and paste on your gate and cars so that people like you won't call you a fraudster for working from home?

What about YouTubers, Upwork and Fiverr freelancers, Bloggers, Traders, dropshipper, e-commerce merchants, and digital marketers. What would they carry about so you don't tag them fraudsters?

Not up to a month ago, a friend who is just finding his feet on Upwork contacted me and was asking about what to do because Agege police keeps disturbing him. What documents would he show your ignorant people to explain his work in a way they can understand? Or you think he's not a hard-working citizen that should be protected from your extortion?

Educate yourself and your people! Use the right tools to fight the real criminals. Stop unnecessary profiling. Even jumia knows when I need a pair of shoes. A serious crime fighter should know what's happening in its online space, not acting like a tout!

beardedboy:
They get grants and loans.

Those lekki houses cannot be afforded by Yahoo boys also. Only business men and employees of international companies can.

And you don't know that some people are in their house in Nigeria working for those foreign companies. I laugh seriously when I read you people's criteria for internet fraudsters. Ignorance and poverty have done a lot of damage in this country. SMH.

@studentofTruth, where did I advocate a 1950 approach? I never did. In this era of liberalization of technology, I believe in the transfer of technology for the totality of our existence- including curbing crime.

You need to understand that there's really no hard and fast rule to curbing crime. At times, traditional and seemingly simplistic methods may also be deployed. I'm speaking from experience. However, we must deploy the most effective technological tools available anywhere in the world.

I disagree with you that the EFCC is useless. It is not. I think you're cynical and nihilistic in that respect. There was a time the EU gave EFCC about € 5 million to fight crime when the NASS withheld its statutory funds. The EU wouldn't waste its resources on a useless body.

Funny, if EU did, then they scammed EU with their media propaganda, the same way the yahoo boys scam the supposedly intelligent Americans and Europeans.

By the way, where's Magu now?

If you don't know, know it now: EFCC is not in anyway interested, let alone fighting to rid Nigeria off financial crimes. It's running its own business of extortion and self-aggrandizement.

While chasing their bags, they must not, and have no right whatsoever, to disturb the peace of sensible and hardworking Nigerians.

Disturbing a landlord or an estate manager for renting out an apartment is a no, no!

They should use the right tools to get the real criminals and prosecute with maximum penalty — and not just trying to expand their extortion net!

byteem:
i don't like yahoo boys they are a menace and a lazy bunch.. but that said that is what you get when people are out of ideas .. totally bereft of ideas.. idea deficit .. no brain to think.. under which law .. under which criminal code .. conspiracy abi.. so a landlord will now be charged with conspiracy .. well then charge Buhari for conspiracy.. after all, his appointees are looting..and cos of their actions or inactions Nigerians are being murdered daily .. yes charge them all for conspiracy to commit murder too, after all, all their kinsmen are on a murderous rampage.. then charge those that elected those thieves there too its all conspiracy to commit a crime.. as Orji uzokalu was charged with a crime them all who voted him there should also be charged with conspiracy .. these guys are jokers .. better still landlords will now ask all persons from age 15 to 35 looking to rent a house to present EFCC clearance.

Yes while you are at it .. arrest the bank MD whose bank issued the POS is being used to rob people and along the road daily.. and while at that arrest the car manufacturer whose car was used to commit a robbery or was used to kill innocent citizens .. yes Toyota MD and all dealers in Toyota brands are guilty .. Hilux trucks are being used by terrorists .. let's lock everyone up.. Just when u think you have heard it all Naija never disappoints

Seriously, EFCC's level of stupidity is like Zee World — extraordinary every day!

It shows how stupid the entire country is. To have such a stupid agency fighting a serious crime. SMH.

kokomilala:
The Suoerstructure Attempts To Overthrow A Subculture Of Missing Gens

This is a bold move by the EFFCC. It should pursue it with evangelistic vigour and the single-mindedness of a serious organization. No sacred cow should be exempted; no efforts should be spared in its attempts to rid our society of this dangerous and insidously destroying subculture called Yahoo-Yahoo. If not nipped in the bud now, it will destroy our socio-economic life on a large scale.

For those asking how landlords will identify these ritualists propped as Yahoo boys, I think it's preposterous! It's easy enough to identify them. One doesn't need to stretch one's imagination too far to know them. Besides, their ID CODE of dreads, oversized t-shirts, sleepers, baggy shorts etc can provide valuable leads to identifying them.

Again, those castigating the EFCC are part of the problem. You say the country is morally declining, yet you take sides with those that are washing away its morals. If you can't help solve a problem, why don't you keep quiet instead of stoking its flames or giving ammunition to it?

I don't comment that often, but your post got my attention.

In 2022, you want to apply a 1950 strategy to curb a crime that uses 21st century technology. SMH.

EFCC is the most useless and unintelligent agency in the whole world. I don't want to believe you're not smarter than this their senseless business expansion.

Even jumia knows when I say or think of needing a new pair of shoes and bombard me with all manners of shoes, let alone what Google and Facebook do.

If EFCC can't do the same, they should close their office and go home. We're in 2022, not 1950.
