 Foreign Affairs › How Strong Is The Iran Rial (irr) Currency To The Nigerian Naira (ngn) by Timeks(op): 2:37pm On Sep 07 |
At present on 7th September 2026, 1 NGN (Nigerian Naira) would exchange for 1040.12 Iran Rial. The chronological changes. As at 31st December 2025: 1 NGN (Nigerian Naira) would exchange for 29 Iran Rial. In January 2026: 1 NGN (Nigerian Naira) would exchange for 29-790 Iran Rial. Within the month of February 2026, the Iran Rial appreciated, as 1 Iran Rial exchanged for 0.87 NGN (Nigerian Naira). Since the war, there is no sign of them bouncing back, as 1040.12 Rial now exchanges for 1 NGN on the 7th of September 2026. We hope this war ends soon, as Iran economy takes its toll due to the ongoing war, so does the effects of war also continues to bite hard on all other countries around the world.

I doubt this to be the true narrative for an APC meeting. The most likely scenario is that the attacked person stole the money meant for the youths in the Ward. It is possible that someone high up had leaked the actual amount given to him to the ward members. Now the youths in that Ward are angry he deceived them. As he lied to them on the amount of money given to him. The real reason is yet to come out. [quote author=LagosOrigin post=140167177] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZN8dDkbkeDQ The man being attacked in the now viral video is the chief protocol officer to the delta state governor, Mr tempo mudi.

| European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Zidane Confirmed As France Head Coach by Timeks(op): 11:46am On Jul 28 |
Zidane confirmed as France head coach Former Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane has been confirmed as the head coach of the France national team. Didier Deschamps, France's longest-serving manager, ended his 14-year stint in charge after the nation's semi-final exit to Spain at the 2026 World Cup. Zidane, a World Cup winner with France in 1998, has been out of management since leaving Real Madrid for a second time as head coach in 2021. The 54-year-old, widely considered to be France's greatest player, will sign a contract that will see him lead the nation through the 2030 World Cup qualifiers. On being appointed, he said it was "a great source of pride" to lead the French national side following their fourth-place finish at the World Cup. "I've often said it: there's nothing greater than the French national team. So it's a joy and obviously a great source of pride to become the manager of this French national team," he added. "It's also a responsibility. I want to thank [French Football Federation] president Philippe Diallo, the executive committee, and the French Football Federation for their confidence and acknowledge the 14 years of service from Didier and his staff. "I also have a special thought today for all my coaches. Needless to say, I have high ambitions for the French national team." Diallo described the new head coach as a "legend" of French football. "The appointment of Zinedine Zidane as head coach of the French national team is a source of immense pride for the French Football Federation," he said. "It marks the meeting of a legend in the history of Les Bleus, who has become one of the most decorated and respected coaches of his generation, and a team with rare potential, driven by the highest ambitions." Zidane's predecessor Deschamps guided France to three major finals over his 14-year reign, helping the country to their second World Cup success with victory in 2018. Zidane's first competitive fixture in charge will be a Nations League trip to Turkey on 25 September. For more check Source: https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/articles/cpd741qn2y9o

harsysky:It is indeed a tricky thing. It is not something that is good to do. What I recommend is that the South Africa Government should make sure foreigner committing crimes are made to face the law under fair trial. But indiscriminate attacks on foreigners without holding the real culprits is not the answer, it only makes the matter worse. You won't see or hear Nigerians defending someone convicted of crime. |

Then they should treat the citizens from countries where they make large economic benefits with the respect that should be accorded them. The problem is not just with the killings, but with the fact that the South African Government have not tried anyone for the killings of foreigners. I believe this should be accorded to every citizens of other countries. It just so happen that Nigeria has Economic Leverage over South Africa on this matter. Aslo, mind you, the Nigerian company only need to get a capable Technical Partner to ensure a smooth continuous services after take over. harsysky: |

Nationalization by Government take over should necessarily not be used here. The Government can come in by making such companies to be sold to Nigerian businessmen who can run the business. Government take over would not be the solution. harsysky: |

Wow, Comrade Oshiomole really got Rufai in this one. Possibly changed Rufai orientation on the way to address killing of Nigerians in South Africa. Oshiomole basically imported the Economic method used by Western countries in resolving issues with other countries. Where Rufai is wrong in the comparism he brought up is that North or South, we are all still Nigerians still under the Law of Nigeria, not the Law of the State. soarnews: |

EdonhappenTv:This might just be a simple case of transfer done, but failed to reflect due to Bank network issue. The story is not clear, they could have patiently waited for it to reflect on the seller's account. Or perhaps call their bank account manager as the case was getting to criminal case. The full story is needed. Did they do transfer and it failed to reflect, or they deliberately did fake transfer to claim new phone for free? |

What she did was wrong. For her to use money to sneeze, and throws it off like trash. Money that one can give to persons in need and they would even pray for you. |

nlfpmod:This would have been good if our military has track record of protecting Nigerian citizens, by dealing with terrorist organization. Sadly, most often than not from history, our military are known for been used to disarm communities only for Boko Haram, ISWAP and Bandits to invade them later, thus rendering communities defenseless. In time past, I celebrate our military for this above reported feat, but after seeing this playbook a lot of times, nothing here to celebrate. Except if he is a Bandit. Nothing of such suggest such, neither is there any report of atrocities the said culprit has committed. Citizens have the right to defend themselves when Government fails. Is he really a criminal, if he is, they should tell us the various criminal acts he has committed also with evidence by listing the areas where those acts where committed. 2 Likes |

REDshouse:No one knows what Dangote is going through right now. Note that, he has spent almost all his life savings and even borrowed money to build the Refinery. This is one of the major challenges business men operating in Nigeria face. His lenders might be on his neck as we speak. For him to go this length just shows how much he must have been stretched. Nigeria can not keep on increasing petrol price just to make importers of fuel happy. Its a competitive market, let the market decide. and let the importers compete against the person that has Refinery, they should not compel Oil marketers to sell petrol at a high price, when Dangote is willing to sell at a much lesser price. Better still, these petrol importers should come together to build their own Local Refinery here in Nigeria. 1 Like |

slivertongue:Well, if the fight continues, petrol would go back to being above 1,100 Naira, so it affects us both directly and indirectly because of the it is the only Local Refinery in the country that is involve. This persistent action could force Dangote to resume selling petrol in Dollars, which would favour both the Unions and the Petroleum Marketers that import petrol. And it is we Nigerians that would still suffer it. Why is there no local Refinery in the country working right now. If there were other Local Refineries, the pressure of competition would have driven Dangote to agree. Dangote can simply decide to selling petrol to Nigeria and do only export, who looses. As he still makes his money. That is the sad predicament we are in right now. 2 Likes |

Rolings:Where was it quoted in the letter that he sacked them because of them joining Union. These private Company owners do know how to circumvent the law though. The only way Dangote can be held in this regard would be if there is valid evidence either by letter or audio from a top ranking executive or from Dangote himself there is no leverage for PENGASSAN to take action. His tanker drivers are not in NUPENG, neither are his senior officers in PENGASSAN. So any strike would only favour him, as it grounds his competitors while his Refinery flourish. His competitors here would be those importing petrol as they are in the oil workers union. |

ElSudani:I am speaking more in general terms that we Nigerians have come to accept, which is affecting every fabric of our society. I recall, when NNPC allowed an imported petrol that was bad into the country. This resulted in many knocked car engines, with car drivers made to go without able to fend for their families, as they now have to source for funds to replaced their car engines. While listening to radio, many Nigerians were advocating for forgiveness of those officials claiming to forgive is divine. Who spoke on behalf for the families of the drivers who could no longer provide for their children due to the knocked car engines. As a religious person, yes you can forgive, but that should not stop the Government from going on with their findings and holding those responsible accountable to prevent future occurrence. But even Government officials claiming to be religious forgets the case, claiming forgiveness as an excuse, while the rot continues. This goes on in Africa, while we blame Religion for our woes. We should ask ourselves a question, why do the Arab Nations and Western World prosper despite they following same Religion we practice. The answer is simple. Keep on excusing failure and corruption in the name of forgiveness, and it continues. |

[quote author=ElSudani post=136868641]What about forgiveness and turning the other cheek? Aren't we Christians anymore?[/Quote] This is where we Africans miss it with Religion. By this I mean any Religion. That you forgive someone does not mean that the Federal or State Law should not hold such a person accountable. This is what the Western countries and Arab Nations do that they continue to flourish. Here in Africa or Nigeria, we say leave it for God, sadly even the Government agrees to that as well, as the Authority leaves it to God, then no one is held accountable. On a personal level you forgive, but that should not stop the Government from still taking actions. Not until we know this, we won't see the desired change we want in Africa. |
