Bad examples, what is the basis of this comparison with Zimbabwe and Venezuela? Harare was empty for many years, no consistent positive economic policies, production was not boosted and Mughabe was instead behaving like a mad cow, sending farmers away and blocking trade even from other African states. Venezuela has been in a trade war with the US. Their pain was is self inflicted, the US shot them out and Venezuela is not a dynamic economic.

I would like to compare Nigeria to UAE and Saudi Arabia, but we will be 10X better if we can get our economy working and save our people from poverty. We are better because, Nigeria's economy has huge potential for growth and we haven't even tapped into tourism, tech, manufacturing, SME's yet. The two countries above can hardly compete with us there but their citizens have above 50 thousand dollars per capita per year. We have less than 5,000 USD per year.

What do they produce. Nothing..
They have only ensured that there is growth in housing, tourism, health, hospitality and elsewhere.

Why do you think that when if pay N100k per month, we cannot start providing housing for citizens and and start local production of solar panels, and improve tourism, etc. All of such activities will mop up any inflationary threat.

If you read Sowore's manifesto, these are some of the plans that will accompany his N100k promise.

Think about it, if we produce without making our people afford it, others will come to take advantage of us. But if we can make ourselves afford stuff and follow it up with production, we will be self sustaining.

U read his manifesto well, DELF SUFFICIENCY

Chatflick:
Making the minimum wage 100K is one thing and the prices of goods being at a decent price is another. You should employ a strategy to ensure the prices of goods is OK cause it is useless earning that amount and spending heavily on goods. Sowore agenda is really great but I feel this isn't his time.

PS: All politicians are LIARS else it won't be called 'Politics' no more.

Sorry sir, but read wat u wrote, u know its posible and with the right leadership, its a pieces of cake. Will suffering and dieing wait? U are immune to good leadership? Why wait? Why is it that whenever anything good is coming to the masses, people will say wait, bt politicians are carting aways millions daily in the national assembly doing nothing... Am sure in 20 years to come u will still be saying its not yet time, u prefer suffering and smiling, make una continue

wirinet:
How do you reconcile these two statements?



And



Where will Sowore get the money to pay N100,000 and embark on massive industrialization and economic restructuring when he expects oil prices fall further?

U need to find out if wat he is saying is true or not, that's how intelligent people do. Sowore is gonna raise money from taxes (not extra tax bt all the big companies especially that are colliding with government workers to under pay or evade tax will be fished out with automation), he will collect back all the oils blocks that have been given to people as favour, taxes and remits that amount up to 60 billion usd that Nigerian is not collecting... Creating new source of income like the export of marijuana, budding tourism etc, its not even far fetched as experts says, a sowore winning election this years means massive investment for Nigeria, the positive impact is countless...

Look at the Nigerian youth they they are fighting for.... They have been so degraded and bastartdized that anything good is alien to them. They prefer to suffer with 30k monthly than support someone which will pay workers and corpers 100k minimum wage... They have no vision, no direction, no ambition... They rather fight someone who will liberate them and support dunce, criminals, thieves, they even have the dumbness of saying, sowore should wait for 2023, as if their suffering and dieing will wait for 2023 before it continues... If h have conscience, Vote AAC, Vote sowore

All they actually owe you is their taxes, not to satisfy your culture of entitlement to the wealth of others.

Meanwhile, Dangote is “creating problems” by creating employment and livelihoods (directly and indirectly) for TENS OF THOUSANDS OF NIGERIANS all across the country (and not just in his village or state, like so many other Nigerians), generating wealth along the entire value chain, and billions in corporate and income tax revenues for the government to (hopefully) invest in social infrastructure such as education and healthcare. How one wishes that Mr. Sowore and other card-carrying members of the chattering class would create similar “problems”. SMH

Lemme waka pass, wat do u know... All u see is not gold

bilms:
The least you can do is to use your brain, i.e if you have one. I know you should ordinarily be an intelligent person, but even if you are a fool, there are times you have to seat back and ask yourself if you are making sense, or if the person you are quoting is making you look foolish.

Olawepo Hashim just one week to election restated his commitment to the nation and made it clear that he would never step down for anybody. Not Buhari ,not Atiku. He is the 3rd Force Presidential Candidate providing credible and competent alternative to the nation.

Even though Atiku came out to claim middlebelt has endorsed him, the middlebelt came out yesterday to insist Hashim is their candidate.

Today, they blasted Atiku and reiterated their support for Hashim, while Hashim maintained that he his never going to stepped down for Atiku despite all pressure.

Now, despite all these clear information available to you, your brain couldn't process them on your own. You are still ignorantly quoting a non-existent politician looking for what to eat.

Must you look foolish to criticise a patriotic citizen offering you a better alternative?

Why body dey pepper u this much, wait as events unfolds soon or after the election, supporting someone doesn't necessarily means, u will step down for them... Good luck

Damidave1124:
Balderdash... I'm in Kogi state and nobody is talking about Olawepo Hashim, Those elders are just representing themselves, they are not representing us.



NB: I like Olawepo Hashim, but I don't think he can win his state.

He is a sold out, he is working for atiku, according to Prince eniola, the presidential aspirant of AD before they started supporting pt, now, the guy has pulled out to support aac, with his members. He said, he will never have anything to do with atiku and Buhari

soberdrunk:
Hahahahah!!! My dear talk another thing, we are tired of all these "Help scam", every year they will tell us they are using "Billions" to fight "malaria" as if we are all fools, you see that Bill gates and him wife Melinda, one day they will still confess what they are looking for in Nigeria.......

Somebody finaly get sense... Sowore was saying this not long ago, but people never take notice... They create problem, make huge money and come back and say we are doing foundation, spend some small money, snap pics, pay people, urs done... Have they solved the problem in their country finish? Why always Africa? Can't wait for a true African man, Sowore to be the president of Nigeria and Africans will wake up one time and start realizing their potential... Let's vote right on Saturday...

The place has always been run like a cartel. I think the government should partner with the private sector and proffer a lasting solution to this menace staring at us.

Who told u they don't know how to remove them permanently? They just don't wanna do it, the style of government apc and pdp run is, create problem and later say, they have created solutions, before u know it, u will hear billions has been spent on logistic and building parks or relocation them... Don't forget, same apc governorship candidate in coming election said he will solve the grid lock in 60 days... That means they know wat they doing... If u want this nation to move forward, Vote for those who wount politik with peoples welfare and peoples lives, who wount create problem to steal money... Vote AAC for a new kind of leadership... Vote Sowore to move Nigeria forward

Every time, Buhari holds person before he can walk

If u care about ur future, sowore is ur best and only option

Amaraokafor:
Good morning nairalanders. Forgive my blunders if you find any.

I need a candid advice for a decision in life I'm about to make. I have been dating this guy for three years now and even if we like each other, I'm beginning to realize that I'm getting tired of the relationship.

I come from a family of three girls and four boys. My elder sister is married as well as my younger sister.I'm the one left hanging in the air. I'm not a desperate lady, but recently I'm beginning to realize that feigning ignorance to this particular issue is beginning to take its toll on me.

I'm in a LDR that has seen little or no results for the past three years. Although there's a reasonable online contact, but physical presence is like a war. Sometimes I don't get to see him for months.The thing again is I'm chasing other guys away from me. Kept saying I'm taken but it's like I'm deceiving myself. I'm tired. I've tried to let go several times but couldn't just bring myself to do it.


Recently another guy came into my life and he seems really nice.He asked me out for a lunch date but I've been mute. I don't want to double date and my present relationship is beginning to make me deeply sad. I like my present man but the relationship is so dull. It's too empty. There are no memories. It's like Im not even in a relationship to start with. Apart from the fact we profess love to each other, I think it's the most dull and under performing relationship ever.He is responsible and cool headed, but the way he handles our relationship leaves me completely empty, extremely sad and hopeless.

I want to date again, but it's like I need a push. I have this ugly reputation for overstreching patience. This suffering inside and smiling outside syndrome. So people don't get to know how extremely sad I'm until I open up. I'm extremely sad.


Talk to me.
I will listen.

Are u guys making headway now

goldcrossxx:
Greetings All,

To all that followed and commented on the thread created by “amaraokafor”, i decided to create a new thread for this as per the advice of a Nairalander. The below is the thread link and also my response.

https://www.nairaland.com/4484675/should-continue-wait-date-another#67236204

I have been following this thread on proxy and never wanted to comment because, i don’t believe in seeking emotional advise from a Public forum due to the fact that many advisers may be underage, inexperienced and would advise you based on what they have read from one party.

The young lady in question comes from a family of 2 girls and 4 boys of which she’s the 1st daughter and the 2nd is as well single. The relationship is also not 3 yrs as she indicated but was suppose to be exactly 2 yrs on the 1st of May.

A new relationship is always very sweet but the challenges that will follow is what matters most because relationship itself is filled with uncertainties just the same way as life. The way a relationship is handled is what justifies what the outcome would be.

The lady in question is nice and as humans, we all have our flaws. Yes, i am a very quiet and reserved person that hardly go out so it’s safe to say that i am an introvert while she’s not that type. I won’t completely analyze everything and what caused it but i will try within my capacity to disclose some so that those that gave their one sided advise can rethink again.

I am not a married man, as a matter of principle and respect to whoever i am involved with, i don’t double date. My problem with the lady in question was bourne out of the fact that she was disrespectful to me several times, domineering, unstable in the relationship and sometimes blackmail me to achieve her desires and a lot more. Those were what caused our problems from the first few months of my involvement with her. Several reasons may have prompted her actions but i don’t see it as being enough for someone you genuinely love.

I told her from the 1st 3 months of knowing her that marriage is what i want and she agreed accordingly. She met with my family, i met with the parents and made my intentions known to them in less than a year of relationship commencement. In fact if not for the financial challenge due to wrong projection of business dealings, marriage would have happened 2 or 3 months after.

Before i met with her family, she ended the relationship twice and threatened that she will proceed with the next man available that love is not a criteria for her in marriage. After i met with her parents, she did same to the extent of giving me a deadline that if i don’t fulfill her rites, i should go my way which she executed her threats. I will be begging for her not to leave, the mother will beg, the father will also talk to calm her down, people from my side sef the same thing. I HAVE NEVER ENDED MY RELATIONSHIP WITH HER even when i had reasons to have done so but she has done so numerous times.

I later spoke with the Dad and told him that immediately finances arrive, i will come in to do the needful. The man told me no problem that he understands the economic situation and once i am ready, i should come in. But my woman was still not stable as it was one issue after another. The same woman that told me when love they sweet that, she would stand by me through thick and thin but when water pass garri, she said NO that it’s only in marriage.

Already people close to me that knew me and her already were concerned about her actions, the way she talks to me, etc and majority told me outrightly to withdraw. I never did but believed she was going to change. As a concerned man, i do sometimes meditate because no responsible man wants to end up with a woman that doesn’t respect her man and can easily be unpredictable in her actions.

I commend her though for her sacrifices. She rejected a guy that had cash, built house and was relatively very comfortable because i knew him. In fact, at a point it was like a competition and my blood pressure was affected when the guy was policing her bumper to bumper since they lived in the same state.

To cut the story short, after several happenings resulting to series of emotional injury, she apologized that she won’t disrespect me again and even knelt down when we finally met to beg and i accepted. Weeks later, she wanted us to meet but i wasn’t chanced to see her and told her i will let her know when i am free. During this time, i was observing her actions but she got upset and told me she doesn’t want the relationship.

I called to resolve the issue but she wasn’t forth coming. Relationship or marriage ooo she said she’s not doing again. I informed the parents and they said it’s not the first time that i should remain calm. I kept calling for resolution in the month of November, December(she only agreed to see me once and her actions weren’t the lady i used to know), January and February but still no show.

Note: Her words to me when she responded was that she can ONLY be my friend that if i don’t want friendship, i should go my way and if i continue to disturb, she will block me. Also note that my finances started picking up late last year and improved early this year to the glory of God.

I continued to beg through the mum till i stopped after realizing that it was stupid of me to have done so. Reason being that i won’t marry the mother and she as a matured lady has the final say to this. I am a principled man and she knows this because Rome wasn’t built in a day. But as a man, i cannot subject myself to all those shenanigans which has always being the problem from the onset. What you beg to enter, you beg to sustain.

So the relationship officially was 1 year and 6 months when she ended it. It was the aspect of reconciliation that kicked off just last month. So my people, even though me i dey sometimes hide inside my shell, i hardly go out at night and i also admit that i can stay for a while without seeing her, but the 4 months is not justified here. Is it not one that you have a relationship with that you can see?

My write up isn’t to castigate her person and it’s also never to praise myself. Seeking emotional advise on Nairaland isn’t my thing but i felt i should throw some light as this will also aid others that wishes to give advise before doing so.

Remain blessed all and excuse my typos.

I can't blame the Warri niggas tho. He should rise people instead of repairing roads

You all didn't get it at all.... That spot is used to attack and rob people, that's why the boys in the neighbourhood stopped it from being repaired

Abagworo:
People should stop mixing GEJ and PMB with Dino and Yahaya's fight. Yahaya Bello and Dino Melaye are disgrace to young people in Government and further proves the youths are not ready for leadership. Other States have their Abuja vs State dichotomy but none has assumed as much a tragic and comic level as that of these two young men.

How old is Dino to be termed young man?

yztak:
Yeah he's one of a kind nd we love him dat way.. More of his type can take naija der.

U mean this joker?

If i have someone like him as a father, displaying the stupidly this man has displayed... I will have disown him long ago.... There is nothing good about him... He is no good role model... He is nothing good
