Please, you people should stop this propaganda already. The man was a casualty of the Arab Spring that brought down a lot of Arab governments and the way he was trying to use the military to crush his own led to a civil war, the same way Syria's own has also led to a 12-year old war.
You are the one who is spreading propaganda.

USA NATO went into Iraq to save the people from sadam's oppression, the result was that USA created military bases in the oil regions. Shipping out oil steadily unquestioned

USA flies in to save syrians from a civil it orchestrated and sponsors. Today it occupies a third of Syria and yes that third is the oil and wheat producing area if Syria

NATO again flies into Libya to rescue the people from their leader, a few years later, British petroleum and she'll gets control of Libyan oil.



My sincere hope is that you are getting paid for spreading propaganda.

TravelRe: UK Increases Minimum Wage Of Immigrants On Skilled Worrk Visa By 48 Per Cent by Timoleon(m): 7:27am On Apr 05, 2024
santaclaws:
Imagine all of you commenting on a post you neither read nor understood. You saw the headline and rushed to the comment section and started typing... See 'intelligent' Nigerians! 🙄

What the post is saying is that before you can enter the UK on a skilled work visa, you must get a job that pays a MINIMUM of £38,700 instead of the old requirement of £26,200. This means it's now harder to enter the UK via work visa route as a foreigner!
Too many people like those you quoted are on nairaland. They will go with deceptive headlines and beat their chest about like they have the full information. It's one of the reasons nairaland is less appealing to me these days.

Each Governor is the Chief security officer of their respective states as the Constitution of 1999 clearly depicts, that is why they are given security votes money every month, the president is the commander in chief of the armed forces, as the constitution clearly states, those are 2 different languages used.

Please go back and study, & stop assuming nonsense to justify your ignorance.
I will give you 10,000 naira if you can mention a section of the 1999 constitution that confers chief security of the state on the governor.

They don’t want to use what is in their skull to reason, just blame Bola Tinubu and be alright.
The last time I checked, delta is a state in Nigeria. Also Tinubu is the chief security officer of Nigeria. Part of the revenue that feeds the federal government also comes from Delta state.

One of the major justification of the revenue that the federal government receives would be the provision of security. This isn't too difficult to understand.

I beat one girl in my lodge and she went and call SARS for me. The useless SARS people didn't even ask me what happened they just slapped me and dumped me inside their van and drove off.

When we got to their station, they asked me if I have any last words or will I would like to write that I've been marked for death. Later one came in and told them to take me to the stake and shoot that fresh detainees would be arriving tomorrow and they don't need us. I cry taya that day. They sha released me after my uncle paid 50k.
Did you think of any last words though undecided

No excuse for the man, him don secure long term bedspace for prison.

However, dear women, 'you will kill me today', 'if you are a man beat me' etc does not favor anyone o. Avoid any situation that might tempt you into this. If the man is the trouble maker and violent person, form humble at the instance of flaring emotions. Excuse yourself from the house after that if you think you are at danger. No go dey drag unnecessary dragging. Too many unfavorable endings dey occur.

Dear men, silence treatment, walking away is not a sign of weakness. If a woman no give you respect wey you feel say you deserve, waka commot from her. If indeed you deserve the respect she go come beg you back if she no come back, just bone and keep developing yourself for a woman that will respect you. Violence on your woman no be big man o. In the long run e no pay you at all.

u don't get the point here. Since her annual salary couldn't buy the car, it means she must have gotten money from somewhere else to buy the car. Now back to the topic what he said was the with 200k as ur monthly salary u could employ a driver and also a maid and I am trying to tell u it isn't possible because that money isn't even enough for u after u remove money for fuel, feeding ur self, accomodation and other billings that will come up during the month. I am not saying u can't live an okay live with that 200k but it would have to come with a lot of sacrifices and once things like car come in, that money isn't enough for u again. Ur argument here is someone who earns 200k a month can employ a driver and a maid right? U should be able to do a brief estimation of how u will split that 200k btw every bill u have and still pay the maid and driver and u will see that it is just not possible unless u plan on paying 10k or less for their services.
Ok

I just gave u a calculation to see if it was possible and from my calculation it isn't possible to own a car if u are earning only 200k. Prove me wrong that someone who earns 2.4m per annum can buy a tokunbo car of around 5m in 3years of earning that same amount.
. This is not the thread about that. This is a thread about employing a driver and a maid not about buying a car. Stay on topic.

Firstly, 2.4 million can buy a car. No be by force to buy tokunbo. You can get a good nigerian used for that price. People dey japa regularly, you can always find a good bargain if you look out properly.
Moreover, right from day 1, most people who bought a car have always had to buy it with more than their annual salary. If you don buy car as a salary earner, you go know. When cars were sold for 4000 naira, the average graduate was earning 200-300 naira. It didn't stop them from buying a car.

Below is a story of a woman who bought her first car in 1981. Obviously, her annual salary could not buy a car.

I don't understand how u guys support rubbish, so even if u have a car already and u earn only 200k u will employ driver abi? So minus the 20k u mentioned from the 200k. How much is left? Then minus petrol cost from the balance abi is it water u guys want to use to drive the car around. If u are going to be taking ur car out regularly in a month, no matter how fuel saving the car is, u will still require nothing less than 60k fuel for the entire month. Now add feeding and accomodation cost and other expenses like data, mechanic. It just isnt possible.

There is no basis for comparison in the first place, it's already flawed because the chasm between 2,000 and 200,000 is mind boggling.

The percentage of Nigerians who currently collect 200,000 as monthly salary will not be up to 5%(select few).
Meanwhile, the percentage of people in UK collecting 2000 and above as monthly salary will definitely be a higher percentage(majority)

For me it just exposes how weak and useless the power of our currency is.
One should be ashamed to bring those two figures together as a basis for comparison, in relation to the strength of 2 currencies
So your grudge is with our currency. Not with his submission. Fair enough.

They didn't buy the car recently, go and find out. They got it before these useless govt policies.

Or they are involved in high paying private business or in shading business dealings at the workplace
Or they inherit the car from their well to do wealthy parents.

Today Nigeria, you can't save and use only salary to buy direct Belgium London used tokunbo car.
Yes. The op didn't say you have to buy the car recently did he? It's you who is adding that. He simply said you can hire a driver from a 200k income and that much is true. There are a lot of hungry people out there who will gladly take the job for 20k. Is it a fair salary? No. But will they take it? Yes. This much is what this thread is about. Can a maid be engaged from an income of 200k? Yes. If you made an offer as a young man who works Monday to Saturday that a maid should come clean your house on Sundays cook and leave and you'd pay her 15k monthly, you'd definitely find someone who will gratefully take the offer. Is it a lot of money in this economy for the maid? No. But will the offer bw taken? Yes. In the present Nigeria, people work for as little as that even for worse conditions.

How much does a person employed in a pos shop get paid? Many teachers in small private schools don't take home 20k. Many factory workers take home 25k or less with hard Labor. Many secretaries of really small offices earn 15k or less.

Do you really think it is impossible to find someone who will cook and clean 4 times a month for 15k? Or someone who will drive for 20k?
