CodeTemplarr:
The money they use to fund religion in a year will banish power deficiency for life. It is a matter of priority. Today, they are hungry but can buy expensive weapons to fuel insecurity. It has always been a matter of priority for all regions of Nigeria.
They should keep deceiving themselves. The revenue from their solid minerals alone can give them stable power supply for years if harnessed properly.
PoliticsRe: Sowore Calls Governor Eno "A Masquerade" Who Should Be Arrested by Tom1960: 5:20am On Dec 04, 2025
Nonsense ingredient. The governor didn't ban masquerades. He said play it in your village square or anywhere that public peace will not be disrupted. Don't block major roads , disturb commuters , and cause accidents because you wear mask.

PoliticsRe: China Reaffirms Support For Nigeria’s Sovereignty, Rejects Foreign Interference by Tom1960: 1:40pm On Nov 07, 2025
Trump should collaborate with the Nigerian government to combat terrorism, banditry , and mass killings rather than launching a full-scale invasion which may attract other international interests and worsen the fragile peace of the country. Military intervention should only be considered if the Nigerian government refuses to collaborate with Trump in a view to ending insecurity and mass killings in Nigeria.

PoliticsRe: My Excitement About ADC Is Gone, I Won't Give Myself False Hope - Deji Adeyanju by Tom1960: 10:57am On Jul 27, 2025
DMerciful:
Peter Obi made the statement publicly unlike the agreement they said they made with GEJ but when GEJ asked them to provide the evidence, non could provide it. Its not the same thing.

If the North allows Tinubu to win 2027, Tinubu will retire all on them Atiku, El Rufai, Kwankwaso, Tambuwal, Bala Mohammed, Sanusi etc and pick his successor even from Kwara. They wouldn't be that foolish, would they?
The North shouldn't be allowed to play a dictatorial role on who becomes the President of Nigeria. If that happens, we are finished as a nation. Nothing good can come from the North with the present crop of politicians in the North- very selfish people.

PoliticsRe: See The 50 Poorest Countries In 2025 According To The IMF by Tom1960: 10:17am On Jul 23, 2025
Limitations -Why GDP per capita is not entirely fair or complete:
Doesn’t measure inequality
Two countries can have the same GDP per capita, but wildly different levels of income distribution. One might have a strong middle class, the other may be dominated by extreme wealth and poverty.

Ignores non-market activities
Unpaid work (like childcare, eldercare, home farming) and informal economies are not counted, which is a significant blind spot in developing nations.

Doesn't account for cost of living
A dollar in Switzerland doesn’t go as far as in India, so direct comparisons can be misleading without adjusting for purchasing power parity (PPP).

Environmental degradation not considered
GDP may grow while natural resources are depleted or pollution increases—this growth is not necessarily sustainable.

Not a measure of well-being
GDP per capita doesn’t capture happiness, education quality, healthcare access, safety, or life satisfaction.
