If i join any protest make i bend like dis⚠️

All we asked in Nigeria was for a good leader but they called the igbos all sort of names.

Their hatred for igbos run in their veins like blood, and they have cooked up a monster so let us all ENJOY him with good faith.

One thing is certain, as far as Nigeria is concerned... Igbos will never lack!!!!

The moment they realize this the better for everybody⚠️

They may lead but the igbos will always remain ontop of the food chain✨✨

Please shutup and stop wailing, if you join the protest what will happen, rapture !

Your definition of a good leader is someone with wasted 8yrs and someone from your tribe ... how convenient
When people call igbos all sort of names, your region were busy releasing complimentary remarks to Tinubu & obas abi thats even gone.

All your people ever talk about is hatred, what have your region ever done in history to depict love for Nigeria, at every protest for national interest the igboman will have a reason to boycott na today
I gave up on that region insensitivity during Naira scarcity 2023, even if you can't support shut the fvck up, but they went on rubbing it on our faces and till question why people don't love them.

Hardship or poverty knows no tribe na who hustle go succeed in life, all that nonsense talk igbo won't lack is for latrine, lets see an igboman top forbe list, man shall not live by food alone, ewu !

killsmith:
Lagos teachers nicknamed him ojuyobo because he always owed salary.

The votes Tinubu got from yorubas is not even up to what he got from others

nobody needs to kill smith, his foolishness will do the job

Paraman:
I challenge una to block the third mainland bridge tomorrow, then you will know that not only the protesters are not smiling.

You can protest, but don't disturb other people with your protest

you must be the bahubali of our time,

you will just get down from your car, fold ur sleeves and ........ ghen ghen

Akwamkpuruamu:
Bulaba that built Lagos but can't solve food insecurity.

GEJ was bad in the eyes of APC but people had food to eat...

So much for First class accountant without common sense.

Thank God no Igbo State is joining them in their protest.

The sheyge banzai must continue. In Buharis tenure some chop grass, for bulaba own, grass Don dry na hay dem go soon begin chop.

We need his brain not his...

Na here we de.

Which one did your forefathers ever joined before now, was there anytime East protested for the common good of Nigeria in history

The only thing you can threaten Nigerians with is "support"

ClearFlair:
Lol...if Buhari's tenure did nothing to warn you about APC, then you need serious deliverance

. and if after 25yrs of democracy someone still think Nigeria problem is affiliated to party name ... then that person needs urgent brain transplant

codemaniacs:
Farming products in the South are usually exported.... Cocoa, palm oil, tobacco, cassava, beans, eggs, chicken... e.t.c.

The south does not eat farm products from the north...

Southern Nigerians have their own indigenous foods which is different from northern Nigerians.
If you are truly a Nigerian then you should know these.

Bro you don't know what you are talking about, what do you mean south don't eat north farm products, yam, beans, potato, lettuce, carrot, soya beans, pepper, corn, onions, water melon, cow/ram/ogunfe where do you think all these things come from or we don't eat them in south

thelegend1:
With the current severe economic crisis being witnessed, I personally would give anything to have the Goodluck Jonathan regime back in power today.

Apart for the insecurity lapses which we have all seen were deliberately crafted by Nigerians who wanted to make the country ungovernable during his time, things were a thousand times better.

APC has not shown capacity or competence in any area of govt in over 8 years.

You are veiwing things from one angle without a deep thought,

Maybe GEJ did well compared to his successors but on a 2nd thought he under performed compared to is predecessors ... infact it is a pattern

From an overview of Govt transition in Nigeria, successors always make predecessors worst "desireable" if cost of living can go back to what Buhari left, Nigerians will take to the street to dance one week

APC took worst to a whole new level but pdp 16yrs rule wasnt favorable to Nigerians

tunjijones:
I know things are not going on fine in the country at the moment.

I know Tinubu seems clueless on how to fix the country, even after he deceived Nigerian that he has a magic wand. But when did petrol get to N1,250. I still bought petrol for N650 yesterday.

God will surely punish all those that are wishing evil against the country cos their candidate lost the last election.

Bro Tinubu is not clueless, they know the problem but will never fix it cos Nigeria problem is there pot of wealth

They know what to do about FX, you can the CBN governor very hestitant to talk about dormant domiciliary account in Banks .. cos they know it will affect all of them.

There is food shortage due to high insecurity, Govt is busy quoting economics theories, even in the bible when there is famine nation turn to nations to augment there food supply for that time ...
Forget those wishing the country evil, if Govt do the right thing country go better

Vinnie2000:
No LIES.

If the Super Eagles win the Trophy, Tinubu and Shettima will use gift dem Billions
While average Nigerians continue to Fill their IkgGas at N1500 and buy bag of cement for N9000.

Dat's why anyone who Slump and die because of Super Eagles Match na Mumu.

Why do you guyz have to inflate the price further is the current price not bad enough why lie,
300% increase in 8month is worst you don't have to add lies

For inside street gas is 1200 per kg and cement is around 7000k that crazy enough

JealousCobra:
For me that 4 no to clear oh!, which one be u sure say na here u plug your phone?


No be all play be play nau.

That number 4 alone don off me ...

every power that wants to use number 4 nd prank me .. die by fire

Bobloco:
You have said it all

Tinubu's presidency is a cursed presidency

how about you mention the one that as being a blessing

Chimarto:
They're benefiting from our oil free of charge and they don't want us to buy food with our own money?

Is the We.st that cos this unity else they won't have been holding the south to his balls . Let open our border for food importation quickly.


Make I hold this my one bag of rice very well, I will never complain because I'm learning the political lesson the EBI PAWAers are teaching us.

Th North don't hold us be the balls, as a matter of fact locally Nigeria don't have enough food or farmers to cater for the population

The pressure and demand on the North is tew much at the moment, hence why the govt have to apply a temporary solution which is to open our borders and lift ban on food item

Most of these contraband dominate our market at exorbitant prices already its not as of the Ban are effective, Govt should lift the ban and we will witness price crash

When the north produces more than enough for themselves to consume, they will be compelled to sell to South at reasonable prices (fear of waste) but when North starve themselves to meet South demand it will definitely come at high price

malali:
This is an Intelligent Decision by Niger state Governor.

[b]Controlling the open market to prevent bulk buyers from causing scarcity for small retail buyers involves implementing various measures and strategies:

Regulatory Policies: Implement regulations to prevent hoarding and price manipulation by bulk buyers. This may include setting limits on the quantity of goods an individual or entity can purchase within a specific timeframe.

Market Monitoring: Establish mechanisms for monitoring market activities to detect irregularities such as hoarding or price gouging. This could involve regulatory bodies, market surveillance teams, or technology-driven solutions like data analytics to track market trends and detect anomalies.

Price Controls: Consider implementing price controls or price ceilings on essential food items to prevent excessive price hikes that disproportionately affect small retail buyers. However, this approach should be carefully implemented to avoid unintended consequences such as black markets or reduced supply due to unprofitability.

Supply Chain Management: Improve supply chain management to ensure efficient distribution of goods from producers to retailers. This includes addressing logistical challenges, improving infrastructure, and promoting transparency and fairness in the supply chain.

Support for Small Retailers: Provide support and incentives for small retailers to enhance their purchasing power and competitiveness. This could include access to credit, training programs, and cooperative purchasing arrangements to leverage economies of scale.

Market Information: Facilitate access to timely and accurate market information for both bulk buyers and small retailers. This empowers market participants to make informed decisions and reduces the likelihood of sudden shortages or price spikes.

Promote Competition: Encourage competition in the market by reducing barriers to entry for new players and fostering a diverse supplier base. This can help mitigate the dominance of large bulk buyers and create a more level playing field for small retailers.

Public Awareness and Education: Raise public awareness about responsible consumption practices and the impact of hoarding on market stability. Educating consumers about their rights and responsibilities can help foster a culture of fair trade and discourage speculative behavior.

By implementing a combination of regulatory measures, market monitoring, supply chain improvements, support for small retailers, and promoting competition and consumer education, authorities can better control the open market and mitigate the adverse effects of bulk buyers on small retail buyers.[/b]

For an Exam i might score you 100% but one thing i have learnt being a Nigerian for over 3 decades is that, Nigeria market forces don't respond to conventional theories and textbooks, no thanks to corruption, greed & get rich quick syndromes

1st and foremost, do Nigeria have enough food on ground to cater for over 200million population, before insecurity challenges we don't even have enough farmers doing the do

From a holistic approach, the best the govt can do is Open our borders and lift ban on contrabands, Opening of border

a. it will ameliorate the control of Middlemen

b. It will reduce the demand on dollar

c. Different sourcing of food supply will promote a competitive market

d. Excessive supply of food into the market reinforces market forces to determine price not few individuals, with excessive supply prices will crash

The only thing Govt have to do here is issue a directive to Open the Border, every other thing will fall in line by peoples action

blueAgent:
Clown


Only a big FOOl like you would have voted for somebody like Tinubu, who has no record or antecedents apart from his false propaganda.

You seeing the tree for a forest, shows you are naive and unreasonable.

And only wise people like you have voted for somebody like Peter OBi , who has no track record or antecedents apart from quoting china statistics.

Leadership is not about abracadabra, you seeing white and calling it black, depict o tii ya weyre awon iran di ran e tii ya weyre

baby124:
Na your mama no get all these things na why you fit open mouth talk to and about women anyhow. Small rat like you. Make thunder faya your mama for giving birth to you. Idiot

i should have known it is that time of the month

sha no enter market with this mood

Juliearth:
Your point of view is valid and I accede 100 percent (I wont take to heart your first paragraph).

My thought however, is borne out of the possibility of the wife trying her best to fit in and take her new-found family as hers, yet gets condemned and rejected unjustly by her in-laws. It is easier to love your in-laws when they are willing to accept you. I know you dont live in Lalaland. Thus, you may have heard or seen certain members of a family frustrate their daughter in-laws/sister in-laws. How can love thrive under such toxicity?

You just being Bias, why make it all look as though the problem can only come from the inlaws,

Is it a known fact that women are territorial, most of my married friends we hardly meet in each others house sef ... cos women are just something else when it comes to space

How many of ladies we have now even have home training not to talk of respecting anybody

baby124:
When you born your own son too, open mouth ask am wetin your wife, him mama bring to the table if he no deal with you.

why body dey pepper you, if you know you carry value you won't feel these agitated ...

Money una no get, Just bring care & love una go still dey nag ... thunder kill ya there

baby124:
Wetin your mama contribute to marriage and the world? Dem suppose ask since she be stranger for your family too. Una go just talk anyhow without reason. SMH. De think before you talk abeg. Stop disgracing yourself outside.

I love that question, My mother brought love & care into my father's house

asides my dad lil sister, their is no one in my father house that does not adore my mom,

my mother can use food n kill you anybody sef

pocohantas:
I wonder why they are always obsessed with the woman loving his family when majority of Nigerian men do not call their in-laws in 500 years.

There was a thread saying your wife's family are not your "friends". You should have seen the comments from our resident males.

Asides love & care whatelse can a woman bring into Man's house/family

seems women no just get mind to contribute anything inside marriage, na everything dey hard dem

nairalanda1:
NNPC better sell the fuel at a profit, if it wants to see that refinery work well. Which means that the APC government better let that happen.

The minute we NIgeria decided to sell fuel at a loss because subsidy, and put state control over the matter, was the day the refinery originally began to collapse.

Subsidy must go, and fuel price must increase so that the refinery can work, corruption would reduce and sabotage would reduce. Because how else do you stop sabotage and corruption? BY taking away subsidy and thus the free money that comes therein.

Once you remove subsidy totally, the only way money can be made is BY MAKING SUSTAINED YEAR IN AND YEAR OUT PROFIT. And that cannot happen with sabotage, and corruption...the thing would be rooted out straight.

But APC and Nigerians love cheap fuel. If Tinubu reduces fuel to 40 Naira per liter, there would be statues of him all over NIgeria set up, so that we can bring offerings of goats, cows and sheep and fruits...and burn incense (lol, just joking.).

(Sits back and waits for the usual 'You are an oppressor and a tinubu fan' crew to come and quote me, and the Tinubu has removed subsidy, you are lying crew' to join in... )

Which one is Fuel price must increase, is it not cost price that determines selling prices

We own the crude, refinery and logistics are locals, so what could possibly justify a high price

jmoore:
There are no food reserves in Nigeria. All silos are empty.

Whenever there is a high cost of a commodity, the foolish people in power will blame hoarders. They blame hoarders for the high cost of getting dollars, they are now blaming high food prices on hoarders.

Petrol is 680 naira per liter, oya blame hoarders.

Cement sold at 7,000 -8,000 naira, oya blame hoarders.

Bunch of clueless creatures.

Hoarding might not be the only reason but Hoarding is one of the surest tools to inflate prices,
Nigeria market is so much awashed with insincerity such that "Artificial scarcity" is a common practice, just hoard essentials and prices will jump up

On many occassion we have seen marketers, depot and filling stations hoard fuel ... we all paid the price so you can't rule out hoarding

All these brain gymnastics and big grammar are purely waste of time, Govt should open Border and lift ban on food items ... that is the only move forces of our market will respond to

cjrane:
In this day and age when you can contact people in America via WhatsApp, they are bringing back this policy that stopped dollar remittances into Nigeria. They have just opened business again for those who would ask you to give them the dollars in America and then they will transfer the agreed naira equivalent to your loved ones in Nigeria.

Ultimately, Nigeria loses on the dollars her people would have sent into Nigerian banks. The dollars remain abroad while the people in Nigeria who need dollars to fund their accounts abroad are merely asked to pay naira into an account in Nigeria and they will credit your account in China! So the dollars never enter Nigeria.

You are missing alot of point, about 50% of all the forex trading going on in the past few months, is not serving any economic purpose besides storing wealth that is why the Naira fall is on a whole new dimension

One thing you must understand Revenues are the major drive of a bouyant economic not "diaspora remittance" when those money go to local banks and remain dormant they are detrimental to the Naira value

You don't see any developed country Opening domiciliary account, can you open a Naira account in US or Uk ... govt must do everything to dissuade spending dollar within a Naira economy that is the surest approach to rebound confidence to Naira.

BitterTruth01:
Lol look at them

This is why you 9-5 job workers should stick to civil service and farming and let capitalists run the economy .

You people from that side are naturally not entrepreneurs . You have no idea how to run a business , how will you run a country ?

Stick to your salary Jobs, you say no
Stick to farming , you say no
Stick to your carpentry and artisanal businesses. , you no gree .

You say you must run the country. Say you dey sophisticated. But you think a country can grow under a socialist system of welfare benefits , and government patronage and control . A palliative economy while free enterprise suffers .

Instead of turning the country into a production. base , na to dey shook eye for other people money. Is that the best you can do ? I dont blame you tho. You cannot give what you don’t have .

But go and do your research, those countries that went the way of Karl Max and Lenin , where dem dey now ?

Stop spewing gibberish ! How many world leaders are Business men

Leadership is all about directing "People" and regulating the affairs relative to people ...

You seem to be ignorant about many things, there are traders and there entrepreneurs .... traders are limited to market, buy and selling commodity while entrepreneur compasses invention, job creation, selling of goods and "Services"
Except you are high on cheap weed you can't tell me your side has more entrepreneurs than SW, google is there but regardless

Leadership and business acumen are on different pedestal, people learn trading but leaders are born and chosen

Lastly you hardly see countries run purely socialist economy, in a country with full blown greed and get rich quick syndrome Nigeria is not matured for "capitalist", for instance Dangote expliotation is a good example we can't go capitalist.

A mix economy is capable of upscaling production where there is intent and willingness

Namaster:
Tinubu and Cardoso have made another HUGE mistake.

Fools are tightening the noise around banks receiving Forex inflow when there are LITERALLY tons of other ways to receive your money.

No one will use banks to receive money with their nonsense exchange rates when there are better options out there.

Cardoso is a prime example of an extremely inspired idiot.

Imagine creating more hurdles for receiving Forex when the country is already groaning about NOT receiving any Forex in the first place.

That's like pouring MORE water on a drowning man.

Tinubu has no idea what to do with Nigeria. He's too proud and too nepotistic to get people who can help him out of the mess he's created.

Lets even assume Tinubu does not have an idea, whats the whole essence of having a team, is it not to brainstorm

I don't think these people are clueless, they know the sources of the problem ... but are not just ready to fix things for selfish reasons

Solving Nig. problem means stepping on toes,
of what impact is domiciliary accounts in a Naira economy but govt won"t stop it cos they are culprits tew, leaving domiciliary account and regulating Fx transfer is of little or no impact

Dey no want man wey go dey follow dem drag cream

Quiet laughable, that a player will leave the field for 10min, imagine 2 players of a team collect blue card within 10mins

ablejesus26:
Loll but Your own late father don't have hope bcus as him done die,him generation don die bcus You don already become accursed child of doom and disgrace shouting Igbo aaahhh, Igbo eeehhhh, Igbo yoooo upandan like a mad man is what Your destiny is what a waste

ablejesus26:
Shut up,I called you out for being a shameless tribalistic mofo,you should bow your head in shame and do better.

The fact that You daddy is late does not mean You can go about calling other people's father.

Shameless tribalist.

lol ! the earlier your father knows he made a mistake the better his chances to correct it with another offspring or adopt Ndi ala

Beremx:
Still yet you won't hear of anyone benefitting from it. It's only a short term plan. What happens next after that?
Oga open Seme border for importation of basic food and watch how food prices will crash. No matter how we try to pretend, Nigerian farmers cannot feed the whole nation on certain basic food stuff.

Nonsense and food reserves

finally, we are on same page
