NBS do release the figures in naira, the IMF only converted it to dollar

No sir. IMF have it's own way of collating it's data worldwide. It doesn't use government agencies because the figures can be manipulated by government to favour the outcome.

Politics / Re: Passport Renewal: Proof Of Citizenship Mandatory – NIS by TheAdvocate(m): 11:24am On Apr 22
StOla:


The expired passport itself is being questioned since there is a claim that non-citizens already have Nigerian passports, hence the need to disregard it as a proof.

NIS have no work to do. I applied for my expired passport and a major criteria is NIN. NIN had all details including that of maternal.

Crime / Re: What It Means When The Court Grants Bail In The Sum Of N20m Or Any Other Amount by TheAdvocate(m): 10:20am On Apr 18
jUeLiZ:
WHAT IT MEANS WHEN THE COURT GRANTS BAIL IN THE SUM OF 20M, 50M, 30, 000 OR ANY OTHER AMOUNT.

You see generally bail is a contract/agreement between a defendant (commonly called an accused person) and the court that the defendant will have a temporary liberty (right to move freely) pending his trial and shall appear in court throughout the trial. The agreement is normally in written form and is called a “bail bond”

The bail bond normally stipulates that the defendant cannot be released until he brings a surety (someone who will assure the court that the defendant would always be in court). The terms may also include a requirement that the surety must be someone who has money worth certain amount, example 50M. THIS HOWEVER DOES NOT MEAN that the defendant SHALL pay the 50M as a condition for his release. No! What it means is that if the defendant jumps bail (fails to appear in court when required and as agreed upon in the bail bond without cogent reason), his surety shall forfeit the money. But if he appears in court all the time, the money remains his own.

By reason of the foregoing, whenever you hear that someone had been granted 10M bail, know that what the court means is that anyone who is to stand as a surety to the defendant must afford 10M and shall forfeit the 10M Naira if the defendant jumps bail. Simple!

- O. G. Chukkol.

#Copied

The bail bond is not just to ensure his attendance to court of the defendant only but an undertaken is extracted that he will not commit any offence or interfere with investigation (if any) or witnesses.

Ok, but if this is all he can achieve as a private residence in his community, was he patriotic enough? Are you sure he wont use the People's commonwealth to build a better mansion, ignoring the needs of the people?

Are you sure that selecting great achievers to mount the position of traditional leadership wont be a better idea?

How is building your personal house in the village linked to patriotism?

Below is the picture of the borehole he donated to Zaria.

This is so ridiculous that a presidential candidate will stoop this low. How is this any different from giving people transistor radio like Sheu Sani did the other time.

Is this what he want to use to get Muslim North vote in 2027?

Pls show me his picture inaugurating or commissioning the project. We know that Obidients are executing projects on behalf of Obi and labelling it as his.

Autos / Re: Drive Your Tinted Car in Confidence Without Police Worries by TheAdvocate(m): 1:40pm On Mar 30
NO POLICEMAN will ask for a medical report that accompanies a tint permit because the tint is not always issued on medical grounds. Some cars came with factory-fitted tint.

I did 3 tint permits from 2009 to date and the only thing asked is my vehicle insurance and physical biometrics at the police headquarters SIIB unit in Jos, Plateau state. In fact none of the 3 cars I had was ever inspected.

Religion / Re: I'm Beginning To Doubt My Disbelief On Men Of God. by TheAdvocate(m): 4:50pm On Mar 01
ErnestNc:


And Where did it say we should seek after signs? If truly you are a believer , these signs shouldn't be a problem for them to manifest . But y'all contemporary believers and pastors be forcing God to do something he has already given the requisite for in the name of 5-12hours marathon prayers , simply because you haven't believed in the true Jesus of the bible. The average contemporary believer can't even pray to God without first blaspheming the Holy ghost by speaking gibberish. It's an eyesore .

Isn't that rebellion ?
How many of the so called professed believers speak with new tongues today order than gibberish? How many of them can truly cast out devils without first blaspheming and commanding the holy spirit? Clearly, I'm yet to find major true believers of the Jesus of the scriptures.

It's working for me. Keep to the one working for you bro.
