Why do Nigerian soldiers use this term on its civilian populace.i haven't seen any army use this term against it's own people. are the army at war with its own people why the term "bloody civilians

It's a saying that someone by the riverside cannot complain of pepper in his eyes.the opposite is what's happening in nigeria today Nigerians have had pepper both red/dry placed inside our eyes with no single help in site.
There's so many evidences that point out that buhari and the FG are sponsors of Bokoharam and yemoosinbajo is nothing more of a traitor and greedy person
1.at the height of offensive against bokoharam during Jonathan when general ihejirika was in army command and chased Bokoharam to their extreme point.buhari and northern leaders started complaining and claiming that ihejirika is killing them.and also threaten to sue ihejirika to the international court of justice.just because he was genuinely fighting Bokoharam
2.buhari in a famous speech in threatened that he will make nigeria ungovernable for Jonathan government.and said during campaigns prior to 2015 elections that a war against bokoharam is a war against the north and that Bokoharam should be pampered and given VIP treatment the news was aired on all news media, newspapers and online media
3.jonathan prior to 2015 elections liberated all territories under Bokoharam control even as far a gwoza,gamburu ngala mubi and other hotspots.and even elections where held in those areas and people returned to their homes.news men where even present in gwoza to to proof that the Bokoharam stronghold had been liberated and rebuilding projects commenced
4.before handing over Jonathan told Bokoharam"I AM HANDLING A NIGERIA COMPLETELY FREE FROM BOKOHARAM TO YOU"as at this time Bokoharam had totally been driving from Nigeria territories completely and we saw evidence to that
5.buhari on assuming power Bokoharam attacks started,he dismantled road blocks and started building IDPs accross nigeria,Bokoharam heldsway all liberated areas fell under their control.hundreds of Bokoharam commanders and generals arrested by Jonathan where released,many of the so-called Bokoharam repentants were absorbed into the army.and Nigeria offered amnesty to Bokoharam members even tried to create a Bokoharam ministry for them and send them overseas for study.who does that?
Now can you see that Bokoharam is Buhari and buhari is Bokoharam!!!!

It is difficult because Nigerians are difficult people.

Again, when would we think outside the box?

We have a peculiar problem when it comes to power supply but have individually and collectively sought solutions?

In the flat I lived in around 2011, I was spending 3k everyday powering my generator. Strangely, the occupants of the 9 other flats in the compound did about the same.

Think about it. 30k everyday from one compound on providing electricity for themselves.
900k a month.

If Nigerian entrepreneurs cannot find a margin on there, then they are slow.

Imagine the noise pollution, the breakdowns, the logistics necessary to have 10 generators working day and night.

Nigerians must find local but sustainable solutions.

Always waiting for Godot would mean waiting in vain.

You are still not getting the point
NoTHING STOP A GOVERNMENT OF A DEVELOPING THIRD WORLD NATION TO START A GROUP OF COMPANIES AND PRIVATISE/OR MAKE IT A JOINTSTOCK COMPANY LATER so many successful countries today started it.
Sukoi IAI are some of the key govt initiated companies and industries that generates revenues in billions of dollars to the government of of Russia and Isreal.what you should be saying is that WE HAVE A BAD QUOTA SYSTEM AND CORRUPT GOVERNMENT.thats why Nigeria government can not initiate any meaniful industries and go about begging for investors.take a look at the NNPC corruption in that sector had gone from bad to worst after 5yrs of APC rule.APC/PDP are scam

Agege is an place in lagos known for its criminal activities and hooliganism by touts used by politicians during election.

It is a good thing people came out in masses to form a local vigilantes, which foiled their attempt to rob poor citizenry of Agege.


We are to be blamed for all these happening, because we voted those who don't care nor have what it takes to rule. The perpetrators [Awawa boys] are sometimes used by politicians during election, and these same Awawa boys are the ones causing havoc ; robbing, stealing, looting,and raping poor innocent citizens within lagos state.

Our leaders have failed us in terms of security. In a country, the first priority as a leader is "security ." If the country is not secured, then the evil ones will come and grab it.


There is just one thing i hate about some Nigerians: absence of unity. The two week's lock-down should be ending tomorrow, but because of some lazy and disobedient citizens which may/might have caused the rate of coronavirus contract to increase, the FG has decided to expand the lock down tentatively.

The people--- who live within those vicinity---who also has shops/properties--- should make sure they come out in masses at night, this would make those perpetrators to have a re-think.

Residents shouldn't even depend on the police, form your own security, any suspect seen or patrolling; perambulating , should be questioned, and if found guilty, should be handed to the police.


I wish every luck and victory this period.

The day politicians stop using these boys for election fraud and the day fulanis are sent from Nigeria armrobbery rate will drop to 10%

after listening to Nigerians and arguments against the government I can conclude that there is a serious disease called acute propanganda syndrome (APS) this had affected the brain of 70% of nigerians.its no longer surprising to see Nigerians arguing blindly and hopelessly in favor of this government despite all it failed policies and government measures.nigeria is finished because when (acute propanganda syndrome) APS affect more than 70% of a country.that country is headed for doom.

I don't need any textbook to know the role of a government.
States where people primarily depend on government jobs or help are ticking time bombs.

U are wrong, u blame ur bad govt for that sukoi is a joint stock company aircraft manufacturing company in Russia that produces both civilian and military aircrafts for Russia and the world.the remit huge revenues in billions for russia.do you know that the govt was behind the setup of this company?when you have a quota system government nothing works out if you doubt as buhari

while the world is battling to handle the Corona virus epidemic.there lies an aged longed rivarly that had to lay low for now.the issue of West and East power power tussle.the west which is the USA and it's European allies,have been engaged in a power tussle with the Eastern powers China/Russia and it's allies for a long time,since the end of the cold war.while people argue that there would not be another world war again among the major powers due to the fear of nuclear weapons,there is a possibility of a serious coventional war among them.
what can lead to this,there are two factors that can lead to this confrontation.
1.China stealthy dominance and aggressiveness in the south china sea
2.Russia intersts in the baltics states of Europe.
while china lay claims of islands that belong to Japan, Philippines Vietnam and also a threat to millitarily attack Taiwan a break away province and and independent democratic country, the Russians are threatening and looking for an opportunity to take on the independent Baltic states in europe (Estonia,Latvia Lithuania) and also pose a serious threat to NATO European millitary alliance because these countries are now independent and are NATO members and NATO article 6 state that an attack on any of it's member means an attack on all NATO countries and they are going to war.here the might of the USA millitary comes in.
America will try to reassure it's alliance in Asia and also NATO that it's is willing to sacrifice and defend them from attacks from these two aggressive powers.
America will try to support NATO and European nations with airpower while it's concentrates it naval might in the south Asian sea to counter the Chinese aggression.
This method can backfire due to the following reasons
Russia have deadly missiles and have capacity to launch thousands of them at American and NATO forces although Russia can't match the Americans in terms of numbers hence it relies on advanced cruise missiles both airlaunched and land launched costal launched anti ship missiles that can hit naval vessels 600km into the Baltic sea and advanced ballistic missiles e.g the islander tactical missile.this will be an advantage because these missiles are cheaper to mass produce rather concentrating on producing multibillion dollar expensive stealth fighter jets and new equipment the Russians are concentrating on producing mordern cheaper and advanced missiles and Russian missiles have proof to be worldclass.and also their airdefence system is simply the best in the world their S-300 S-400 S-500 missile defence systems are highly advanced and cheaper American jets the F-18 F-22 and B-2 spirits will find it defficult to penetrate this systems and America and NATO will have to sacrifice hundreds of their expensive air assets trying to break the Russian air defences.dont also forget that Russia has nearly all mineral resources in their territory to prosecute and manufacture lost equipments at a cheaper cost.while also possessing a deadly and powerful army.this will bleed America.
in the Asia theatre where china holds away American will attempt to defend Taiwan from American aggression if china chincks it, and also it's other allies in Asia millitarily if china tries to use force to take their islands this will put the powerful American navy again the hordes of china advanced DF-21 antiship ballistic missiles.this missiles once more are cheaper and highly advanced compared to the heavy American war vessels and can pose a threat to American vessels and aircraft carriers.dont forget that the Chinese navy will be waiting to pounce on the already hardhitted American navy too.the DF-21 has a 3000km range which can threaten all American naval vessels in the south china sea and put them in a tight corner.all these missiles are so advanced that they can't be jammed by electronic defences of USA and it's allies because they uses infrared TERCOM and inertial navigation which are independent of electronic systems.
At the end the USA will find it difficult to protect it's allies and while it will lose its prominence the Chinese and Russians will capitalise on this to carry out their expansionalism agenda.also note the USA will not go for the nuclear option because that will be the end of civilization and America as a Dominant player in world politics.that will also be the end of the world.

bigpicture001:
Now u ask the master;....bro, do u understand that Nigeria nd the US don't practise same democracy..? Even when the US wrote the nooks ng guideline of democracy....... Reason,the US is an homogeneous society while Nigeria is not....so if we don't rotate...it wouldn't even work at all

Now com to your ideology in economy...these books you read are written by greats for developed society..where they HV a lot of capital by the investing rich...there ,they see opportunity and take it..and this makes your policies of incentive to attract private exercise to work out...

But in Nigeria and Africa where there is less physical,financial and human capital...even if you say tax is zero percent...investors still don't com....this is not cuz the opportunity is not there, but cuz....there are other factors international investors consider: like your legal system,infrastructure, health, industrial policy , policies on capital flight etc.......

This means an undeveloped nation that goes by the established policies in the textbook written for advanced economy will continue to lagg behind in development......their government who are the holders of most if the capitals in such poor countries will HV to step in and create dox critical industries on whose base the economy can kickstart....

Thereafter,cuz of corruption,nepotism,ethnicity,favouritism... Etc..it can then privatize them and bring them back to private ownership....... There are many ways to kill a rat.... Not only by the trap......ifbu live in a perculuer society,peculiar solutions are required to achieve growth....

Hope u get it better now

You too much I don mark your moniker u too get sense bro.its so painful illiterates and fools outnumber the few of us with sense and a brainreasoning capacity!!!!!!

ivolt:
It is not the government business to build manufacturing companies.

They will just be another group collecting salaries and subsidies from the government.
Borrowing to pay citizens isn't the same as taking people out of unemployment.

If you have a manufacturing business process, approach your bank or BOI for loans.

I get your point.at every country you have strategic companies that the government initiate. In order to accelerate national industralisation most govts initiate projects and companies e.g automobiles, electronics,softwares,millitaries etc manufacturing.before making them joint stock companies Isreal used this method after independence in 1949 and look at their level of progress same with India or russia.capitalism is no excuse for a serious govt to aid in industralisation of a country.since investors aren't foughtcoming there is nothing wrong for the government to step in and accelerate the industralisation of a country.

The OP is suffering from mental imbalance.

Below is a list of few of the projects that Buhari used the Chinese loans for;

Lagos-Ibadan Expressway
Lagos-Abeokuta-Ibadan Railway
Apapa-Oshodi-Iyana_Oworo Expressway
Oyo-Ogbomoso Expressway
2nd Niger Bridge
Kaduna-Abuja Railway
Ajaokuta-Itakpe-Warri Expressway
Remodelling of several International Airports


Please list what Goatluck Jonaddaft and the world bank fraudster Ngozi Iwealla used all the loans they collected for

U are too daft to comprehend my points.so buhari should always collect loans to build railways.are railway industries,companies etc.u are so daft and bigoted in reasoning that instead of you to read the post slowly and comprehend it,u are spewing trash.as the saying goes "never underrate the power of stupid people and illitertrates in a large group"that's the problem of this country.

Karleb:


You know nothing Jon Snow!

People shout when they don't have enough, when they have excess they become fools.

One of the things we were all taught about money in secondary school is; it must be scarce. Remove scarcity from money and it'll lose it's value.

Print excess naira notes and our economy will crumble. Inflation will walk in majestically.

A sachet of water will sell for N500.

Even thieves will stop stealing money, they'll rather steal what they'll buy with the money.

Now how will control printing crumble the economy or lead to inflation. I didn't say wide printing like the way Zimbabwe did.i mean secret tactical printing to get few thousands out of poverty by giving them the money as loans and printing to finance some key government agencies.

ehinmowo:
The value of money in an economy is synonymous with the activities the economy could generate. Printing more money beyond the economic capacity leads to recklessness.

In short, the only reason govt cannot afford to print more money is simply because of human nature. Man cannot control himself when he sees 'free" money.

What's wrong in printing money to finance some key government agencies and services I didn't say print 100million for everybody I said control printing e.g taking 100 thousand people monthly out of poverty by giving them 500k to 1million naira loans to start a bussiness/skill and they pay back.now tell me how it's leads to inflation.

rusher14:
Enterprise is in the hands of me and you whilst government takes care of security and utilities.

Watch how Dangote would manage his refinery whilst NNPC would never.

Nothing stops you from seeking loans to set up a manufacturing company just as Dangote has a refinery.

Research about Isreal Russia and india.lets take Isreal and Russia for example key industries aviation automobiles,electronics software millitary manufacturing industries are been runned by the government these are strategic industries.after creating them they became jointstock companies.but the government where the brain behind them been set up and they make money from it.can Nigeria be like that?

rusher14:
Stop writing nonsense.

All loans are tied to projects the chinese themselves undertake just like the rail projects you see.

You have no idea of what am driving at,why doesn't buhari take loans and build our manufacturing might as a country u have no idea of how many manufacturing companies1 billion dollar can create and millions of Nigerians it would take out of unemployment.

Nigeria seem to be a country governed by cows and dullards.the FG of Nigeria secured over 5billion dollars loan over the last 3 years from China.its a shame that Nigeria collects loans and spend on projects like railway and road construction.projects we can handle and fundraise from our oil exports and internally generated revenues.without even considering industralisation of nigeria.below is a minimum cost of setting up some key industries just with a rough cost of 1 billion dollars and create thousands of jobs while promoting our industrial might as a country
Mobile phone software industry:500 thousand to 10 million dollars
Automobile industry: 50million to 150 million dollars
electronic industries :1 million to 5 million dollars
others plastics/tires/food processing/medical equipment:less than 20 million dollars in total
In aspect of power generation a worldclass standard windturbine with an output of 2MW cost 4million dollars a 500 windturbine farm will produce 1000megawatts of electricity at a cost of 2 million dollars(rough estimate)imagine 1000MW added to the national grid.yet this clueless government want to still go ahead to collect 17billion dollar loan from China again.without any meaniful use.as we speak now key Zambian and Sri Lankan assets are been controlled by the chinese.only God knows what the Chinese will do to us when we fail to pay back all these reckless loans.

paxnka:
I think CBN should print more money to finance basic infrastructures like consistent power supply, upgrade our refineries, good transport systems, etc.
This will not lead to inflation if managed properly.
We have a lot to do in this country

Abi, how can we just be punishing ourself, controlled printing of money won't lead to inflation

donvat1:
Bro if CBN should print more notes that will lead to inflation thereby leading us to extreme poverty

If CBN prints more money and give to all unemployed people maybe 1M each as a loan to pay back how will it lead to inflation na,just check it out

SoNature:
Here's the answer: When you have plenty of cash in the economy pursuing few goods, it causes inflation. I will use an analogy to break down what inflation means

What that means is that the tuber of yam you used to buy for N500 may be sold 5k because a lot of people have money to throw away.

The implication is that such economy isn't sustainable and it reduces the value of your currency. One of the unique characteristics of money is that it must be SCARCE (Limited supply).

If money isn't scarce, you will see plenty of money chasing few goods. This, no doubt, is a metaphor for disaster.

I mean it not that the money will just be printed anyhow even if it's once and given at least 1million naira to everybody as a loan that's what I meant

They should just get down na make we see

This question had really bothered me,anyone with economics knowledge can explain.
There is hunger in the land.to solve this problem why can't CBN print at least enough notes and pay everyone without money in his account or someone who isn't working minimum of one million naira.
aren't bank note paper why can't it be done like this?
