I love Akwa Ibom. They do not to deserve to be in a failed country

The leaders work for the people.

I guess it's time for all indigents of Akwa Ibom to pack their bags and move out of other states, especially from Lagos State, and move to their beloved state. I don't see anything holding them back,

Sirheny007:
You boarded a flight from Abuja to Lagos and you want to bring down Nairaland.

What should people like us - who have accumulated up to 700hrs on air to and fro Europe - do then?

Singapore Airline 18hrs 15 min from New York to Singapore and 19hrs 20min flying back to New York Non stop. Airbus A350. That was a trip I don't wish to take again non stop. Better to fly to LAX then fly to Singapore

Mynd44:
Panama came, nothing happened.

I don't expect Pandora to be any more than that.

Especially since courts have ruled that evidences such as these are not admissible in courts.

But in Nigeria, Who held Bukola Saraki accountable ? Instead he still contested and tried to be president and some of these activists rooted and supported him.

Stuff of comedy

Are you sure about that statement in Bold

timesup234:
Iran is too big to fight Israel. They will allow Hezbollah to give Israhell a bloody nose. Hezbollah already defeated Israel twice in the past (1982 and 2006), and in the next war it will be a total annihilation of Israhell

Remember 1967. That was the Six Days War. Israel defeated Egypt, Syria, and Jordan. Iran ain't got the balls to start a war with Israel. Israel has a BIG DADDY call USA and Iran ain't got nobody.

Oga Sanwo olu, come out of it. All of you are the same breed. So I should not lose hope and die in poverty while you and your Goons and fatherism busy looting out our wealth. We are done already. Yoruba Nation is the Solution. Keep your advise please.

I was with you until that "Yoruba Nation" . A mind is a terrible thing to waste. Even God have given up on that kosi kosi country. Kosi owo kosi ina kosi work. Goddamm always kosi kosi

punisha:
Is that not the tinubu they said has returned to Nigeria? Is he now twice?

In their imagination he is already twice going thrice self. They are all delusional. The man is a poster child for "Dead man Walking"

Why is incest a crime?

Consensual incest between adults should be legal

Note
I'm not talking about this particular story. Just asking

I don't subscribe to abortion, but for you I am willing to make an exception. Texas law be damm.

Afamsi:
Its sad to say, but Russia is the next world power... God has turned His back on America.

Russia is like Nigeria one trick pony. Oil is their only source of revenue, no major industries to talk about They are a poor country with nuclear weapon. Most American military satellites do not operate low orbit tier, they all operates in third tier orbital stage, all nuclear powered. US ain't worry about Russia. China is already being taken care of. All Supply chain infrastructures now being move to Vietnam and Thailand.

Death is a debt we all must pay


R.I.P to you madam!

Humm don't know about that debt part. Jeff Bezo is spending $10B to discover fountain of youth. Pray he finds the solution ooo

Megatron77:
Must you knack? so you no go fit save yourself by not knacking.

Hummm woman that is not easy to do. Hard dick ain't got no conscience. All the blood needed in the brain to make rational decision is now between the leg, Hard for a man to turn it down

kowopealajo:
The worst part is that the founder of this Abokifx stays in England. He is a fucking greedy man, so many people will not agree with me but if you buy dollar constantly you will agree with me.

The man is not the one selling you dollar. All this platform does was report trends in currency fluctuations. This like blaming Financial Times newspaper for currency exchange. When your CBN stopped disbursement of Dollar to BDC anyone with brain should have seen this coming. It is all about supply and demand. BDC is the unofficial free market place to buy FX exchange when supply dries up and demand increases guess what prices goes up. That CBN Chairman most not have studied Supply and Demand in College

Tmex:
In my post i mentioned the need for CBN to make dollars available. I repeat "there should be nothing like bureau de change" let's have a unitary flows of dollars to the bank alone and see if getting 1 million dollars for a genuine importer will be So diff8cult for banks.

I don't know why this should be a big issue. All CBN need to do is to establish following process where if one need to pay for goods outside the country or go on vacation

1 Go to the bank initiate a wire transfer and pay for the goods This way no need for individual to have foreign currency in their hand
2, If going on vacation establish a limit on allowable FX exchange like $5000. Furnish all necessary papers and that is it.
3. Get rid of Dom Account.

Here in the US I don't a DOM account in Pound Sterling or Yuan to do business with a company in United Kingdom or in China.

IPIGSRDOTARDS:
I use this frequently. Why shut it down?
Worst CBN Governor EVER.

Was he planted to destroy the economy because that's exactly what he been doing all along.
Buhari, I beg fire this guy ASAP.

The man is a banker all the decisions he has ever made were to benefit the bank.

1. Paying remittance in local currency. That helped the bank to dictate what rate they are willing to pay on the remittance. The banks then turn around and sell at a profit to the BDC. Initial excuse used was that paying out remittance in foreign currency to the beneficiaries will have adverse effect on the country foreign reserve. Imagine I sent $1000 through Western Union and instructed that the beneficiary be paid in dollar how will paying out the $1000 affects the country foreign reserve. I put in $1000 and I get out $1000 that is a wash. He did it because his real goal was to create scarcity of dollar in circulations. This was a policy change from the Jonathan administration. Exchange rate when Buhari came into power was around 195 - 220. Now we are at 570. The man is incompetent plain and simple.

2. Stopping BDC from trading in FX had the same purpose. It created artificial scarcity of dollar in the open market, you can see this in the banks ATM rates on VISA card those rates are still within N450 - N460 range but parallel market rate, which in reality is the open market is at 570. Go into any bank and try to buy FX exchange you can imagine the number of papers you will need to fill out. Only in Nigeria is it easier to obtain FX exchange to pay foreign school fees than to run a business.

FutureIsFemale:
HMMMM! It is well. Dear God please let my story be different. Let it not get to this point of carrying placard IJN

Amen

BabaIbo:
Nigeria strong o, with the way them dey siphon money from her, she still dey breath.

Nawa o, this money you people are sharing ehn.

Have you been following your FX trade lately. That country is what we call call walking dead. The country has been in coma brain dead for 50 years

AbdulHakeem44:
No Muslim is imposing shareeah on the whole country, stop lying to push the narrative to your favour. You further prove your hatred by quoting a post where a Muslim governor was alleged to be involved in fraud, did I for once support embezzlement in any form?? You aren't talking like an exposed man. Are christian governors not embezzling You suck bro, am sorry to say this.

Since you previously advocated that you Muslims in that country will like to be governed under your so call Sharia law I was just helping out. Let us use this particular case as a test run. All this whataboutism regarding Christian governors I don't give a rat ass about that all I know is on this particular case let's use your so call Sharia process.

senchibi:
Women are generally emossinaly attached to everything. They act on their emotions. Men are less emossinal. They are more moved by sight. So if your woman cheats , it's not just all about having sex. She already has a bit of feeling for the other guy. So you're not a 100 in her life. It's better to move on because you're already loosing the battle.

All Ladies in here kindly confirm this narrative

CrystalSpark:
This is why

Damm partner no more forgiveness after seeing that pic.

yyba:
Haters will soon invade this thread with hateful and unreasonable comments

This is the man some people wish becomes Nigeria President after 2023. !!!! Better put him on 81mg aspirin per day regiment. Jeeze

Mrs Ganduje was invited to report last Thursday to the Abuja headquarters of the EFCC.

This is one instance I am going to agree with all those Muslims that want to impose that their Sharia law on the whole country. I say lets use this case as a test run. Where is that guy @abdulhakeem44 that calls me a Muslim hater, partner show your face on this one. So one can just ignore a court signed subpoena without any consequence in that country.

ab1x:
Your opinion and that alone does not count as everything has to do with the exchange rate. You need to be in touch with the reality on ground. There are lot of things involved in importing a car from US to Nigeria. Clearing for underage car is between 480 to 500K alone


Not to mention shipping from US to Nigeria.

Shipping for Texas is 1130 while from other state is $1030

You need someone to drive the car to port; they mostly collect between $200 to $500 depending on your negotiation power


Another cost is the cost given to the person that you used his or her account to purchase the car. They collect between $150 to $200


There are some instance that you will purchase cars on auction as buy and drive and at the end of the day, when you go for pick up, the car might be having issues or may not even start and you need to send further fees to them


When cars are purchased from auction take for instance at $1350, coparts will add additional fees to it like $450 to $500


When the cars reach port again after paying for clearing, the agent might tell you that the battery is not starting or the oil is short, they may even remove stuff from the car that you will need to replace etc.

Ask from someone who is in the business and see if my stated assertion are either true or false


Goodluck in getting the car at 700k

I just gave him a conservative cost break down. @ N1.9m its a bargain

stunnert:
Damn No

Before you say NO let me help you out

Buying $1300 auction fees 250 total $1550
Towing to port $250 Ocean Freight $1100 Total $1350

Final Total to Lagos $2900 Convert to Naira @ 530 = N1537000
add clearing N450000
Buying for N1.9M is bargain Don't ask me how I know this just trust me

omooba969:
There's no credible SE candidate - those you call Igbo leaders are unstable as the water and they have no political weight.

and who in SW has political weight? By the way what's your criteria for political weight

OkuFaba:
Who ever that's rooting for Tinubu to rule Nigeria need to go for mental evaluation..

How would a living want the half dead to rule them??

Mark my words, if he ever makes that seat, he won't last 4yrs cos he's already a walking vegetable

Exactly my thought. He looks like a shrinking man in that pic with Buhari in London. Why anybody will wish that on that country does not have good intentional thoughts for that country. Tinubu has shown that he is one of the most incompetent and corrupt individual in that country. Queue up all the gbati gbati crowd to start defending him 1...2...3

Comedian2019:
Ameeeeeen!

This is not PMB fault it is your CBN chairman fault, He is a banker and he has been doing everything to benefits the banks.

osuofia2:
Emefiele why, with Buhari efforts in making the economy stable yet the south keep sabotaging his efforts. Emefiele needs to be fired

The man is incompetent. The man must have failed economy section regarding supply and demand. You initiated a ban when the currency was trading @ 450 now its @540. Why were the changes initiated again. To lower the exchange rate right. You turned off supply of Forex and now demand is putting squeeze on the supply. Tell yaa wonder will never ceased to exist in that Kosi Kosi country. Kosi Owo, Kosi water, Kosi money you getting my drift

Itzlinda:
El-rufai don suffer. We Muslim northerners see him at too westernised, and you people see him as religious bigot.
I think he's just misunderstood by all.

what do Northerner have against someone being westernized? I am just curious

CXLVII:
The Speaker also suggested that the bill should make provision for the registration of herders and prepare them for ranching.

“Allocating parcel of land is not enough but there should be training of those who would go into ranching,” he said noting that ranching is expensive and required adequate preparation.

He added that Lagos has 250 hectares of land in Ikorodu and another 750 hectares on Epe for ranching.


God bless Lagos state!

Brilliant heads already going towards revenue generation from ranching!

Now I know why the West are the most educated and brilliant tribe.

Unlike some flat-headed dwarfs who would have been screaming "OUR LAND" and "FULANIZATION"

VAT at the Federal level now VAT at the state level. Value added tax that's VAT is, now tell me what are the value being added when I execute a transaction at a bank or when I imported a finish product. Even Canada which has one of the most regressive VAT in the world does not tax bank transactions. In US no VAT think about that. Being educated and brilliant does not translate into having common sense. VAT is a regressive tax that mainly affect the poor because your are taxing consumption that is why in the US there are no VAT.

BeeBeeOoh:
Nice one from Mr. Speaker, Mudashiru Obasa.

Somebody should help me give Obasa this little token from me make he use am calm body and spirit down.

Is this the same Obasa that was exposed as being corrupt ? Wow only in Nigeria.
