Politics / Re: Abba Kyari: Why Buhari Should Sack IGP Usman Baba - Reno Omokri by Thedonchyme: 10:10am On Feb 17, 2022
Do we thing he would have been arrested if NDLEA had not first made everything public? Remember that it was NDLEA that declared him wanted and then showed the Press the evidence they had on him.
https://africannewstoday.com/africa/nigeria/ndlea-declares-dcp-abba-kyari-wanted-over-illicit-drug-trafficking/

I believe that Buba Marwa, who was known to be a tough military man when he was the Military Administrator of Lagos, decided not to go through official channels. If the NDLEA had gone through those channels, this would not have seen the light of day.

I believe that Abba Kyari does a lot of dirty jobs for many top politicians. They will protect him with everything they have because their secrets are with him. With the way things are going now, I won't be surprised if he suddenly dies of Covid-19.
Politics / Opinion: The Revolution Will Not Be Televised By Femi Aribisala by Thedonchyme: 8:18pm On Aug 08, 2019
It is no longer conjectural; Nigeria is at war.  In July 2019 alone, some 282 of our citizens were gunned down or violently killed.  If they are not killed by marauding herdsmen, bandits and kidnappers, they are killed by our own government turning on Nigerians guns procured to defend Nigerians.

Politics / Africa: Impose Sanctions On France And Other Countries That Impoverish Africa by Thedonchyme: 11:24pm On Jan 22, 2019
- The EU should impose sanctions on France and all countries like France that impoverish Africa and make these people leave.
- If people are leaving today it's because European countries, France above all, have never stopped colonising dozens of African countries.
- If it wasn't for Africa, France would rank 15th among world economies, not in the top six.

Mrs. Amina Zakari’s biological brother, Alhaji Sulaiman Adamu, is Buhari’s Minister of Water Resources. In both African and Western kinship dynamics, Buhari and Amina Zakari are related. If Nigeria were a functioning country, Amina would have recused herself from her current role at INEC in view of the widespread concerns raised by several stakeholders about her ties with Buhari.

Politics / Shocking Fact - Why Nigeria's Power Sector Privatization Is Not Succeeding by Thedonchyme: 11:05am On Dec 26, 2018
Problems with the privatization
1. It was incomplete.
The government still runs the TCN thus effectively runs the Generation and Distribution companies
2. The TCN network is old, cumbersome, inadequate and the single grid philosophy is obsolete
3. Negligible investments in the expansion of the transmission network thus making it impossible for the generation companies to inject more power.

Politics / Chris Ngige Fights For Oppressive Exxonmobil Instead Of Oppressed Nigerians by Thedonchyme: 11:18am On Sep 04, 2018
The message Chris Ngige delivered to ExxonMobil loud and clear is that it does not have to be subject to Nigerian laws. It can operate here in Nigeria as a law unto itself. It is unfortunate that a serving Minister in Nigeria has joined forces with a foreign firm (Mobil) to deny Nigerians of our deserved benefits. The collaboration of the Minister and Mobil is certainly that of corruption. President Buhari’s avowed stance against corruption must be brought to the fore here! - Femi Aribisala

Politics / IPOB 14th September Sit-At-Home Protest: Army, Police, Civil Defense, DSS React by Thedonchyme: 11:10am On Sep 04, 2018
Sit-at-home: Army, Police, Civil Defense, DSS meet; dismiss IPOB’s order

Nigerians have been asked by the security agencies not to take seriously, the sit-at-home order declared by the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), saying it will not hold.

The sit-at-home order, which has been fixed for September 14, 2018, was handed down by IPOB in a statement last week by the group’s Media and Publicity Secretary, Comrade Emma Powerful.

The statement had called on Igbos in every part of the country to stay indoor on the said date, to register its anger, and protest the alleged killing of men and women at Afaraukwu, Umuahia, in the course of Operation Python Dance carried out by the military in September, 2017, as well as those killed in Port Harcourt and Aba.

IPOB regretted that one Mr. Okafor, who was allegedly on a peaceful march from Nkpor to Onitsha, was shot dead by the army.

Addressing reporters after a closed-door meeting of high-powered security operatives that included the Army, Police, Civil Defense, Immigration, Department of State Services (DSS), at the State Police Headquarters in Awka, the Anambra State Commissioner of Police, Mr. Garba Umar, reiterated that IPOB is an illegal organisation and therefore has no right to give order to anybody.

He said: “IPOB is an illegal organisation. We are therefore appealing to members of the public that, on no account should they be intimidated or harassed into succumbing to the threat of IPOB. They plan to embark on sit-at-home on September 14, 2018, but the security agencies are ready for any eventuality.

“We are ready, and we have all it takes to keep the peace in this state. Anambra State has been enjoying relative peace and we will never relax in providing adequate security in this state. We are in touch with all security agencies, including the military, that we will never ever allow anybody to truncate the democracy we are enjoying, and on no account should we allow anybody to foul this peaceful atmosphere.

“We urge members of the public to go about their lawful businesses as they will be adequately protected. The issue of calling for a referendum on the 8th of this month or thereabout and the September 14 sit-at-home order by IPOB will not be tolerated”, he added.

Investment / What Is The Minimum Amount I Need To Start Forex Trading? by Thedonchyme: 5:27pm On Aug 17, 2018
If you are considering investing in Forex trading, you may be asking yourself how much you should be thinking of starting with. This may actually not be the very first thing you need to consider if you are preparing to go into Forex trading.

I personally think the first thing you should consider is your goal or the reason you want to go into Forex trading in the first place. If you can answer this question, you will be in a better position to answer any other question that may arise.

However, to address the issue of how much you need to start with if you are new to Forex trading. For me, the answer is NOTHING!

Surprised? Well, Forex trading is a high risk investment that can wipe you out in a very short while if you do not know what you are doing. This is why most brokers offer what is called a practice of demo account.

With a demo account, you can simulate trades without spending any of your own cash. Actually, you are not spending anybody’s cash and you are not making any real profits or losses. Everything is imaginary but based on real life market realities.

This gives the opportunity to understand in practical terms what exactly trading in the Forex market entails. You use this demo period to try out and understand your strategies. It also gives you a good opportunity to fully understand that layout of the platform you intend to trade on.

Like someone said, you do not want to be hitting the wrong button at a critical time. This could be the difference between a profit and a loss.

At some point however, you will need to go live with your trading. Believe me, no amount of demo trading can equal the feel of real trading. The reason is simple; you are now using your money, and can lose it very easily.

So, if at the stage you were to ask how much you should consider starting with, I will not say nothing, but I will tell you to start with an amount you can afford to lose without feeling too bad.

Regardless of what your goal is, I will give you this same advice. Don’t start with an amount you can’t afford to lose. Sadly, a lot of people come into Forex trading with the idea that it will suddenly make them very rich. Many of these end up running away from Forex trading with heavy losses.

Hey! I have not said that you cannot get rich through Forex trading. It however is something that requires some very in-depth knowledge of the market. This you cannot achieve on your first day of trading.

So, it is better to start small so you can learn and not be too scared of losing your life’s savings.

That said, you actually have to be learning. Learning is not just a function of trading. Are you learning from any experienced trader? Are there materials you are constantly referencing? If all you are doing is just trading, you may just be making the learning curve too steep for yourself. This will also likely result in losses for you.

One more thing that is important in your Forex trading journey is the broker you work with. First, you must choose a reliable broker. Interestingly, the broker you choose will also determine the minimum you can start trading with.

There are a lot of things to consider when choosing a broker but that is not for this article. We will look at that in another article.
Personally, one broker I trust is https://lionsfx.com/. There are other reliable ones out there. Choose one and don’t forget to start trading with a demo account until you are sure you are ready to go live. Even then, start with something you can afford to lose.

Investment / Can I Make Money Through Forex Trading? by Thedonchyme: 2:23pm On Aug 15, 2018
This is one question that a lot of people are asking. Actually, the answer to this is a resounding Yes!

Let’s try another question – will it make me rich overnight? Probably not. While it can indeed yield very high returns, growing your initial deposit significantly, it can also wipe out your investment.

Am I trying to scare you? Nope! I am just trying to make you understand the realities involved in Forex trading. If you know anything about investment then you would know that high yield investments always come with high risks.

So how can Forex trading make me money?

Now, this is the question that anyone who wants to start trading in the Forex market should be asking. With the right information, training and guidance, you can make money from the Forex market.

Tips to Making Money through Forex Trading

Tip 1 – Learn
If you jump into Forex trading without the right education and training, you will be hurt real bad. Many have jumped in with both feet only to lose their entire account within a short while.
Understand that there is a lot to learn about Forex trading to ensure you become a profitable trader. If you can, get an experienced trader to take you under his/her wings. If you don’t know any, there are tons of materials online that can help you understand Forex trading.

Tip 2 – Get the Right Mind Set
After you have learnt the important fundamentals of Forex trading, do not approach it with a view to become a millionaire overnight from a $10,000 account. This is not impossible but highly improbable. Going at Forex trading with a get-rich-quick mindset has resulted in many lost accounts.
Understand that it is a process, develop your trading strategy and grow with it.

Tip 3 – Choose the Right Broker
This is very important as this will provide you with the platform on which to trade. First, you need a broker that is reputable. You do not want to lose your deposits to fraudsters.
Next, you need to consider what the broker is offering. How much is the initial deposit you have to make? What leverage are they offering? What’s their commission, spread, and deposit and withdrawal processes?
You need to have all these information and be sure you are okay with them before proceeding.

Tip 4 – Try a Demo Account First
I know you are eager to get started but if you are new to Forex trading, be patient. Start with a demo or practice account. Aside from the fact that this account helps you feel and understand the process of live trading without having a funded account, it also allows you understand the broker’s interface.
You wouldn’t want to be clicking the wrong buttons with a funded account.

Tip 5 – Ready to Go Live? Start Small
As you get ready to go live, it is important that you start small. This is not the time to use huge sums. No matter how good you were during your demo days, trading with your money is a totally different ball game. For this reason, start small.

Tip 6 – Use the Protective Stop Loss Feature
While making money is a very important aspect of Forex trading, the flip side which is also very important is preventing loses. Almost every account has a stop loss feature which prevents loss or further loss through preset parameters.

These 6 tips are just to get you started. You will keep learning as you trade and with the right guidance, you will get better. One of the most important tips above is getting the right broker. I personally use https://lionsfx.com/. You can try them out or any other broker you know to be reliable and able to provide you the support and platform you need to succeed.
