Yet they keep blaming president Tinubu as if he is the cause of the current hardship. A country that imports common toothpick and produces nothing should not be surprised when hunger comes knocking. This is why we all have to support the renewed Hope Agenda of our president in turning things around for the greater good. It won't be easy but we will all smile at the end. Let's forget that inexperienced man called Peter Obi and his shenanigans and concentrate on our repositioning our country

You guys keep trying to deceive but the people are getting wiser. This is the 9th year of the APC and things are only getting worse. People like you said the same about Buhari 8 years ago so why should anyone in their right senses take you seriously? Do you even take yourself seriously?

Obrigardo:
When you feed the troll, he thinks he's getting more powers.
Not gonna feed you this disgusting maga cultist anymore.

You woke up to troll someone with a thread and now you call me a cultist. Don't you see how foolish you are.

Firstorderwizard:
After reading the bolded I was hoping you are now seeing clearly, only for you to behave like the typical black man in the next paragraph.
To start with, are you aware that govt is paying more subsidy to keep the PMs price stable because of the rising dollar ?
Are you aware of the fast rising inflation?
If the govt budgeted 250 bags of cement for a particular construction at #5000 what is the current cement price ?
Are you aware that contracts awarded by govt. are subject to review based on changes in cost of raw materials?
Which construction company will win a contract of 500m in naira and execute it at 1 billion naira ?
Even if the construction firm goes ahead to execute the contract, will the quality be the same?

You are still not getting it? Have you heard of any construction company pulling out of contract with the FG?
Look, the FG is clearly making profit from the currency fall.
You spoke about fuel sub but that's not an added cost. It has always been there.

Obrigardo:
Mumu, this doesn't work anymore.
I'm just warming up.

Don't you see that you are a waste of time? You came online with the sole purpose of getting someone banned. Somehow, you are the only one that does not know that you have lost. Failure.

pquaver:
The vote was not cast because anybody think igbo man is their problem.. Igbos are everywhere.. But the igboman on the ballot is not electable and still unelectable.. If igbo nation bring him 10k times he will fail 10k times.. If he is the only savior of ndigbo then ndigbo of which i am 1 are in deep shit.. We have more enough heads capable, peter obi has no monopoly of wisdom.. Capable hands are all over Nigeria.. Know this and know peace

If Nigeria could elect a Buhari and a Tinubu then you clearly don't your problem.

Firstorderwizard:
And the machineries and equipment used in road construction are manufactured in your country right? The expatriates too are paid in naira too ?
Leave this tribal sentiment. It's killing you and your people

What do you mean what you talk about tribal sentiments? Economics is not about sentiments.
Now, the budget for all roads are in naira. So yes the fall of Naira may affect the private companies building the road but not the government. There may be a reduction in the profit of the construction company but not the FG.
Also let's talk about salaries that a paid in naira. It's clearly very profitable for the FG.

proff010:
Mumu post

Keep fighting every post you don't like when in reality it's your government killing you.

yarimo:
Kid with free bonus data creating senseless thread

Old man with lots of data entering every thread that starts with Igbo. I am ashamed for your children.

Goodvibes007:
She is an Obidient. She voted Peter Obi.

This is exactly what she was talking about.

The point remains, know your enemies.

I saw a video of a woman complaining about Igbos and thought I would add my words.
Nigerians, it may be true that some Igbos are pissing you off with their comments on Twitter and Nairaland But they are not the ones responsible for the hunger and insecurity in the land. They are not the problem of the country, your leaders are.
In the words of Patrick Bet David, "Choose your enemies wisely.

You can choose to fight against irritating comments on X or to use your voice and your space to fight against a government that is destroying what's left of the future of your children. It's up to you to decide who your enemies are.

For 3 times on a roll, you cast your votes for APC thinking your problem was the Igbo man. What has that fetched you? Choose your enemies wisely.

Firstorderwizard:
Let me assume Sen. Ndume was misquoted because I don't believe this is coming from a Nigerian Senator

Even a Primary school drop out knows better for a country whose import is far more than the export

The importation is mostly made by private businesses and not the federal government's budgets.
On the other hand, government projects such as roads are paid for in naira.
Salaries are paid for in naira.
So yes, it could be quite profitable for the government.

oilyngbati:
Typical ipob

You mean the central bank governor is Igbo?

CilicMarin:
I mean, you were cursing and abusing the govt over high rate of the dollars, and the govt took some actions that crashed th the dollar by at least 15% and you all have been crying all over the cyber space?

What do you actually want? Why are your hearts so evil, these children of perpetual anger??

Oga, stop deceiving yourself, the dollar is already rising again.
Also your government's actions don' give permanent solution.

Obrigardo:
Na wa oo
I just laid it out with evidence and you still wasting my time?

You are wasting everyone's time

jogojogo:
Stop lying

The internet never lies, you can point out my lies if you are sure of yourself.
You kids just wake up and type whatever comes to your mind in defence of stupidity.
Peter Obi is one of the most loved ex governors in Anambra state.
He won Anambra with more than 80% of the votes in the last election while Tinubu couldn't win Lagos where he was governor.
So who were the Anambra people that told you obi did a bad job?
Please use your senses na. You can't always allow yourself to be deceived. Grow up.

malali:
Locally produced foodstuff has to come down. The farmer will have to sell at some point.
Look at cement for example, it went high and now its 7-8 thousand.
As long as the foodstuff is not smuggled across the border, the earning power of Nigerians will determine the price.
It happened in the US and UK. During covid everything went up due to inflation, now its back to the usual price when the rates were raised.

Oga prices of food has come down? In Nigeria or in which country? How much is beans in your area? How much is garri? How much is palm oil? Please mention the food prices that have come down?

malali:
I meant locally produced goods, not imported fuel.
Imported fuel is international commodity market.
However foodstuff and other goods produced in Nigeria 100% will eventually come down in prices.

Oga when has the price of foodstuffs ever come down ? Stop living on false hope.

chopnaira:
We are no longer subsidizing petrol for Togo, Benin Republic, Cameroun, Chad, Ghana, Niger Republic, Central Africa Republic, Burkina Faso e.t.c

Actually, your petrol is still much cheaper so how can you tell that you are no longer subsidizing for these countries?
On the other hand, it could be that petrol has become too expensive for the average Nigerian to buy and people rather pack their cars.

chopnaira:
Obi did not do well in Anambra as per posts by Anambrans and Nairaland and several social media site. That alone influenced how alot of people from other region voted.

As per Osibanjo, he would have lost to Atiku before noon on election day.

As per Aganga and Akinwunmi, they are not politicians.

How old are you? 90% of the post from Anambra people praised Obi's leadership but somehow you were convinced by less then 5%. Again, if all it took to convince you was reading what someone wrote on Nairaland then you are not a very smart person.

Obrigardo:
If you can, take time out and check his profile and maybe flip to a year ago. All his posts we're about this now discredited confidant who just got arrested and charged for making false statements and falsifying records.

I think it's just right Seun deletes all his threads about Hunter Biden. Don't you think so?

If you want someone to be punished don't you think it's up to you to come with evidence of his wrongdoing instead of telling others to check his posts and find the evidence for you?
From your first post on this thread, you should have highlighted some of his falsehoods.

[quote author= post=128575551]National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu, State Security Service and the police to go after food hoarders, while the Nigerian Customs had announced plans to distribute confiscated food items to Nigeria to ameliorate hunger in the country[/quote]And that is the APC solution to hunger in land? Clowns

Sirmwill:
None of all the presidential candidate is competent IMO


Just bunch of power hungry useless people

Talk about your president. Atiku and Obi are not responsible for this mess.
Clearly if you see a competent person you will not be able to tell

ManirBK:
Good development

God bless Tinubu

God bless Nigeria

Hope you know that 60,000 metric tons can feed the country for 2 days?
What happens to the price after the 60, 000 tons is gone?
On paper, this may sound huge but in reality, it can only reduce price for a week or two. What happens after then.

panafrican:
There are many sources talking about the gray areas between Israel and ISIS. Don't be surprised if you hear ISIS is on Israeli secret service
payroll.
Don't trust that Netanyahu boy, He has too many sides to hide.

You just wake up from your bed and start typing conspiracies. Are you ok?

Rossikk:
Very good question, OP.

They will respond by abusing you.

How is this an important discussion? How does this topic change the fact that there is great hunger in the land?

BOSSkesh:
It is only the ipobs that have been wailing unnecessarily about everything
Calm down and give the president time
We can't go from a dependent economy to an independent economy in just 8 months it doesn't work like that
I believe in the mandate of president Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and his renewed hope agenda
And I'm willing to suffer now in my youth and enjoy when I'm advanced in age

You are wrong sir. Most of the protest is
happening outside Igbo land. The people crying Ebin pa wa are not igbos.
Again you trend to forget that this is the 9th year of the APC and Tinubu campaigned on Buhari's record.
Also, don't forget that people like you tagged the Igbos as wailers during the Buhari years but it turned out that they were right to wail. Maybe if they are wailing again it would be wise to pay attention before you make the same mistake again.

laiperi:
Who were protesting from your side of the Niger when you had military and civilian Presidents.

Kudo to the Yoruba women and their people that were honest enough to protest against their son as President.

It has not stop night buses dumping people in Lagos on a daily basis for generation.

Nor has it stopped Talikawa trooping to the West.

What is your problem?

You intentionally vote in incompetence and then you cry loudest. It's not honesty, it's
hypocrisy. Elections have consequences.

afroniger:
Hear talk? What a criminal excuse! That's price gouging. Government should penalize them. Nigerian were thinking that the reason for the sharp increase was related to inflation or dollar scarcity. Which stupid increase in demand are they referring to? This is unacceptable plain and simple economic sabotage.

Oga, this is simple demand and supply that you were taught in secondary school. What do you expect what the demand overwhelmes the supply.

CoronaVirusPro:
China will clone anything!

What is “sharprite”

Those dwarfs will steal anything, and it will never be as good as that of the owner.

You know nothing about the Chinese. They steal everything and in a short while it gets better than that of the owners.
That's why Americans now import solar panels and batteries.

PureFace1:
You are really delusional lol

Commerce no data to back that up all noise and empty talk

Indigenous industries anywhere in the East is not even close to Indigenous industries in Oyo, Ogun not to even talk about Lagos state. It is just propaganda without any verifiable data you guys conjure when you see you can't match south west in industrialization.

Igbo transportation companies that transport mostly Igbo that can't stay in their region doesn't mean you dominate transportation in Nigeria, Yoruba transportation is mostly individual run and Yoruba control all transport across south west in fact you will even see Yoruba drivers in other regions even NURTW the national body for transport workers in Nigeria Yoruba have more influence, you think MC Oluomo would have so much influence in Lagos if the transport sector is dominated by Igbo ?. So how do you dominate? just pure fantasy in your head? is like you don't even know what domination mean, most of those Igbo transportation companies that operate in the East wouldn't even survive in south west.


As for Airline how many Igbo own Airlines in Nigeria apart from Allen Onyema? there are also Hausa, Yoruba Airlines in the sector just because Airpeace make the most noise doesn't mean you dominate. Now if most airlines in Nigeria are own by Igbo you can say you dominate.

You are very delusional if you really want to claim domination in ICT lol what do you even want to back it with ? Yoruba have been dominating ICT in Nigeria for several years even the recent most Influential women in ICT in Nigeria list is dominated by Yoruba women not to even talk of major Nigerian Fintech and Start ups own by Yoruba.

Two University from South west made it to the rank of 1000 best universities in Africa and the world recently and institutions in South west have been consistently making it for years none from your region that claim dominion in education make the list, is that not even clowning ? mind you there are a lot of universities in the north, south south and south east both public and private but only the ones from the south west made the list but you want to claim domination in education through what lol? In fact if you check NUC or what's their abbreviation website, Yoruba have more professors than any region in Nigeria.

If you want to talk about Health sector, is it more doctors and nurses you would say you have more than Yoruba that make you make such stupid claim?

Which Health center, Hospitals or Institutions in the East can match those in Lagos, Oyo or even Ogun.

In terms of local industries, no state comes close to Anambra.

Here are the words of the then minister of Trade and Investment, Mr. Olusegun Aganga
[url]https://www.vanguardngr.com/2012/07/anambra-has-highest-number-of-smes-in-
nigeria-aganga/[/url]

In terms of airlines, 2 airline companies are locally owned. Airpeace is by far the biggest in the country.

Also, when you talk about transport, the biggest transport companies are owned by Anambra men. Note MC Olomo does not manage a transport company but a tax collection business.
So the guy was mostly correct.

Sharon805010:
We saw how you guys are defending him yesterday, you won use this cover him shame😂

Most of us criticized tony but you only saw what you wanted to see.

Nvestor02:
Naira rise and fall base on the choice of people.... Tinubu has already taken that burden of baring responsibility of Naira on his head.

He has unificate Naira, the market and choice of the Nigerian citizen will determine the performance of Naira in the international market.

I would also advice the president and the senators to take down our denominations. There is no reason why we should have 1k in one note.

There is no country that have that amount in one note and their currency is doing well. Dollar last denominations in $100. Same as Pounds and euro.

Even there pounds end at £50. The highest Ghana denominations is 200 cedis.

Nigeria govt should take down our denominations too and make small dominations like 5N 10N and coins to be available.

US still dey spend coins. Why not us?

Tinubu is doing well in the cost of living, it's now the government that needs to step up to the new reality.

The CFA is 2.5x better than the naira and their highest denomination is 10,000. You theory is completely false.
