Dog meat is a very delicious delicacy. Premium meat tbh.

WhoDeyHause:
Only God knows what I did in my past life to throw me into this contraption. And FG is also mulling telecom Tax.

It’s not much. I honestly don’t understand the reason for all the noise. 50k on 10m. 5k on 1m.

Abeg na the charges be this?

People and misplaced priorities sha.


The good roads and electricity that people are clamoring for, is it not money that will be used to maintain them? So where will the money come from if nobody pays tax.

All the 50 naira stamp duty charge and monthly maintenance fees nko? Why won't people complain when they know the money is likely to go the way of the rest.
Your backward policies are impoverishing people, making them not have value for the one they manage to earn with their sweat but imposing more levies on them after showing failure upon failure is what they've now conjured in their midnight witchcraft meeting, Shebi when there's no money to deduct from will they start arresting people with DSS? From banning crypto transactions on fintechs to this? Taking one of the sources of income from the youths and still asking them to submit owo mi da. Me I don't have strength to curse anybody this morning cause I wouldn't normally but you see this government they'll soon eat what they cannot swallow if they think they can continue using tortoise sense for the struggling populace they mostly improverished.

Nothing will happen. Even if fg starts taxing people 50% of what they earn, at most people will rant online for few days and everybody will adjust. Nobody in this planet adjusts to situations better than Nigerians. Adjusters de supremo.

But the cybersecurity levy won’t be much though. If you make a transaction of 5m and they deduct let’s say 20k it’s not bad na. I know we all hate Tinubu, but without taxes how will they make Nigeria look like the obodo oyibo some people crave so much?
If they’ll actually put the money into good use it’s nice, the only problem is that the money might be looted.

15tn naira is 11.5bn dollars.That's a whole lot of money and I really can't understand how it's affordable for the contractor

I hope you're right and this doesn't turn into an abandoned project.

He thinks 11.5bn dollars is child's play. The chagoury people he said will be executing it aren't even worth up to a billion dollars, I wonder how they'll fund 70% of the project.


In the end, the fg will likely be the one to bring the whole money. They just can't say it now to avoid outrage.

[color=royalblue]Please i want to ask an honest question. Forgive its foolishness.

What exactly with the rising number of seaports have in this country?

Lagos get three
Ondo wan get
Delta wan get
Rivers get
Akwa-Ibom, Cross river , blah blah blah

And Nigeria virtually exports next to nothing. I read sometime ago that vessels leave Nigeria almost empty. Just thousands of empty containers.

So what exactly will happen when everyone has seaport? Na to hustle importation numbers abi na another thing?[/color]

Delta has a seaport.

Truly truly "Money na water".

Justice doesn't exist in Nigeria.

Some people were saying ivory coast is a useless country on this thread a while back, I've been trying to remember the persons involved but I have given up. I was in ivory coast last week, tbh it's more developed than Nigeria 💯. Things might be more costly, but you get what you pay for. You'd never regret your stay there.

South Africans went from being 2nd class citizens in a 1st world country to being 1st class citizens in a 3rd world country.
I wonder which is better?🤔🤔🤔

Oasix is benefiting from the APC government, so he has to defend them in any way possible at any given time. Afterall, na where mouth dey see food chop he go give maximum attention. It's the people that don't gain anything except suffering for supporting APC that continue to amuse me till today.

Goodvibes007:
A few buildings on a beach does not equal 200 million dollars. These guys just pull numbers out of their arses.

A resort in Indonesia which is a real tourist destination.

Same thing I said when I first saw the numbers. There's no way landmark resort is worth $50m talkless of $200m.

As long as people like Gloriousgbola and raumdeuter exist APC will stay in power indefinitely.
If you think Nigeria will ever get better you better wake up from that dream.

You know Tinubu has really fvcked up when even Gloriousgbola and Co have gotten tired of defending him...

If Tesla doesn’t close ties with Musk they might fall further down.

I don’t know what Musk is on about with his constant fight with different governments and organizations, I wonder if he values freedom of speech over money. He’s letting his fortune sink over silly shit. IMO he should learn from his fellow business owners, and stop interfering with governments, if not they will fvck him up real bad. If Musk can shut his mouth, and stop involving himself in certain things, I believe the man has the potential to be the first trillionaire in history.

They said the high rate of dollar was responsible for increase in price of goods and services . The dollar rate subsequently decreased but rather than price of goods and services reducing, they even increased further. I’m so happy that the dollar rate is increasing again now, fvck patriotism. A high naira has absolutely zero benefits to us. I’ll be the happiest man on earth if the naira can crash to 5000/$. If this can happen I’ll vote Tinubu till infinity.

This new law actually makes sense. Why will the governor be appointing caretaker chairmen for lga’s instead of conducting elections? Was he appointed or elected? It makes no sense for a governor to have such power.

Atiku would've lost before 9am assuming he chose the useless Wike as vice. Why would Wike even want to be Atiku's vice after all the noise he made after losing the primaries? Talk about shamelessness.

Itsrm:
Atiku seems to have a very high temperament, maybe he would have been able to manage Wike.

As far as I'm concerned, Atiku/Wike ticket was PDPs best shot at the presidency. The moment he went for Okowa, the election was lost.

Lmao. No sane party will give Wike VP ticket.

Just imagine Wike as your presidential or vice presidential candidate. Wtf

Theflint1:
The g5 plus Atikus sway would have seen the PDP across the finish line either way... There's a lot of pragmatic voters that hinged their decision on going LP way based on the rubbish that the g5 was constituting.

Wike was and is still quite influential and the last PDP convention is pointer to that. There's some people that might not have finesse, but they're able to wield influence... Wike strikes me as one of such person's.

The g5 isn't as influential as you're making them seem. I stand by my point that Atiku lost to Tinubu simply because Obi contested. Assuming Peter Obi didn't contest, irrespective of whether Wike and his G whatever group rebelled, Atiku would've won the 2023 presidential election.

BlueRayDick:
Even if he does, he will have to kiss some Northern asses and that doesn't even guarantee anything.

I will never forget his trusted friend Tambuwal going to the podium to step down for his northern elder brother Atiku . E shock am!

People are giving wike too much recognitions than he deserves. Whatever goodies he's getting should be given to Peter obi because he was the one that made Atiku lose that election not wike. Assuming Peter Obi didn't contest, Atiku would've won fair and square whether wike formed G5 or not.

GloriousGbola:
then stop benefiting from western hegemony

at least the westerners were born there. you chose to flee to western hegemony to better your life. you knew of all the evils of western hegemony and yet you still ran to the west. there were so many other places in th world you could flee to , but you chose to run to a place of comfort and opportunity - all the evil they have wrought be damned

put your money where your mouth is - and live in a non hegemony allied nation. if you cant do that you are simply a pontificating loquacious hypocrite who wants to eat his cake and have it. iran is there. russia is there. china is there. go an live in one of the brics nations that is not 'responsible for the destruction of the world'

i have several doctor friends

one is in canada and complains every day about liberals
the other is in nigeria and complains about liberals

which one is the hypcrite?

it is the suckers who follow you i feel sorry for - echoing all your bullshit while not enjoying your privileges

The pansophist guy is really amusing. You criticize and insult western countries everyday, yet you can't move to China and Russia you claim are the new Messiahs. If you give 98% of online Chinese and Russia free residence permit to live in either of those countries, they'll reject it with utmost switfness.
Now he's trying to claim freedom of speech. @pansophist can you carryout this same freedom of speech against China while living in China?

raumdeuter:
That is the beauty and greatness of Western democracy

In Michigan and New York we have people now chanting death to America. when you ask them if they will leave to those better countries they all refuse

Imagine anyone gathering to chant death to Russia, China Iran, etc inside those countries and surviving

It's really amusing tbh. Why live in the same country/environment you hate so much? It's not like the dude is poor so he can't afford to migrate to either China or Russia.

Imo, I think western nations are too kind and welcoming for their own good.

Ibime have you seen @pansophist posts on this site?

It's funny how most of his posts are about how the West is bad..inhumane, and so on yet he stays in a western country. I once asked him why he doesn't stay in either China or Russia, but he didn't reply. If he posts only 20% of the kind of stuffs he posts against Western countries against China in a Chinese platform while living there, he wouldn't last a month before being disappeared.

pansophist:
China saved the global south. Now we have options. From loans to escape World Bank/IMF sharks, to development in terms of infrastructures, to educating our youths, a heavyweight in diplomacy (just look at their support for Palestine), non-interference (so no woke ideologies as a condition for their help), and so much more.

With a hundred euros, I can buy a good techno phone for my grandma to keep in touch with her, if not for China, communicating with loved ones would be so difficult. How many of us can buy Samsung phones? China gave the global south a voice, and the only civilization capable of burying western hegemony, and they are on it.

Most of what we use is imported from China, and they are still cheap even after all the importation fees, customs bribes, and profit for importers. In only a matter of time, before China enters into weapon production that will render Western junk useless.

That is western biggest fear. It gives them sleepless nights. Just imagine China turning to the US military-industrial complex useless due to a lack of customers. When you cannot compete fairly, throttling becomes your only option.

But you can only throttle an opponent that doesn't understand the nature of the enemy, this is why ignorance is dangerous. When you know your enemy and yourself, you can always predict accurately the result of every battle.

God bless China, it's a country I deeply respect with all sincerity.

After saying all this, you still live in a western country. If you say only 20% of the things you say against the western countries you live in while in China, you would've been arrested and disappeared into thin air.

The immediate effect of a shooting war is high oil price.
This is a positive for the Naira.

But if the War wears on, pressure on the markets, investors piling into safe haven assets, and economic uncertainty would make the naira depreciate.
At this point, we're talking about a major conflict between Iran and Israel; as well as interventions from their respective allies. At the moment, this is very unlikely.

In the near term, the value of the naira will be primarily decided by the CBN.
They haven't had this much control since 2018.
I think this flare up will be contained, so the CBN should retain its ability to peg rates.
But there is a lunatic in Tel Aviv who may have other ideas.

-Lord

The most important to me is if the dollar will rise up against the naira again. If it'll make the dollar go up ......

Seankafor how are you? I heard coin holders are bleeding seriously.

Luckily for me, I don't hold/keep coins. I only use crypto for trading as a form of payment. Once someone pays me with a coin, I sell it off immediately and get my money in my normal account. I tried holding on to coins back in 2022, but everything was wiped off , since then I swore never to hold on to coins again.

As a black African man in third world country like Naija, na wetin concern me most be this .

If two Middle East countries choose to unalive themselves e no too concern me, na the economic implication of their actions or inactions on a global scale really concern me . 🙅‍♂️

You people still haven't answered my question oh. Will the war make the dollar go up?

CC @Lordadam16

Will a war between Israel and Iran make the dollar go up? Abi it'll go down? Just curious ...

American politicians (CIA Director is a political appointee A.K.A politician) are as bad and in some cases even worse than their Nigerian counterparts.

Why is the state of infrastructure, electricity etc in Nigeria not as worse as the ones in USA?
