bro4u:
bro, you dont know me so dont talk rudely...

I dont need to know you. Ur comments which already betray ur intellect and reasoning easily gives u away.

You obviously dont know much about nigerian history and politics.

Read more and comment less. It will do u good.

bro4u:
Well the only part of Nigeria I pity is the Middle Belt cos most of them are christians and if Biafra should exist(which must happen) then those middle belt christians will be forcefully converted, but to prevent that from happening they need to STAND-UP, i am still suprise when states like Benue and Plateau have a rugged youth population yet they still allow the fulanis backed by Buhari to kill and rape their beautiful women, if they dont stand-up now to resist this the killings weill continue which automatically means they will suffer beyond imaginations.

Talking religiously now, the ancient Roman Empire at a point in time conquered the world and that gave way for the rapid civilization of the world we live in today, so if Rome could do that (one of the most respected christian nation in the world) then why should Nigerias case be different, I want a situation where muslims should equally be afraid of this country being ''Christianize''.

If Central African Republicans Christians were slow who knows what could have been their fate, they fought and gave the muslims hard times which led to them fleeing the countey in bulks.

U are a kid right?

I guessed as much.

They are deaf and dumb they would never assimilate!
Their's is a case of a donkey carrying loads of books. They may be literate, but they are most ignorant!
Their case is hopeless, all you can do is pity them.
Ask them to conduct a quick censors of the average age their girls lose their virginity it will not be more than 14, yet cry blue murder about Ese's elopement, yes! it was never abduction.
I currently live in the south and my js3 student spent last two nights in her boyfriends room. This is most rampant as some of them actually take in and stop coming to school. All these are normal in their societies.
The saddest thing is that whenever a certain pastor commits a crime even if he links it directly to Christianity, he's labeled a fake pastor, but a a misguided motor park rout commits a crime so long he has a Muslim sounding name, it's Islam that takes the bashing.
I don't care much replying most of them, because I don't see the point. Like I said most of them are intellectually handicapped.

Gbam! You said it all. No need to add anything.

^^^^
you are doing exactly what he is accusing you of!

Defending criminals over flimsy excuses!,!

Mr man, you are not smart at all.

South sudan is a horrible story!

This was a conutry dat insisted on independence from sudan to stop a 20 yr civil war, only to start a new war after 17months!!

I hope useless IPoBs are reading this. The biafra they seek, may only be another senseless killing field!


God help africa!

Is this for the 6 seater napep?

Am interested.

Seems you are misunderstanding me.... twould be quite silly of me to get behind devaluation when the balance of trade is not in the nation's favour...

The divergence between the official (CBN manipulated) & the PM should ordinarily not be more than #50 (give or take 10# either ways)cos CBN can't meet all the demands but we all witnessed how speculators & hoarders forced it all the way to 390+ till recently that it came back to 310..

There is scarcity of dollars but the scarcity isn't as bad as the unseen evil hands manipulating rates are making it look like...

Whatever was done to drive it down should be sustained till arbitrage is no longer profitable..

You get me now?

Based on our monoeconomy, the cbn can manipulate the parallel market to ensure convergence of the official and parallel markets in times of high crude oil prices and sales.

Sanusi acheived this around 2011\12 during the oil boom.

However the perpetual scarcity of dollars which is inevitable at times of oil crash like this means the cbn is virtually handicapped. The measures will be too weak to contain the demand and attendant speculatives practices. In nigeria, everyone is guilty of roundtripping.

modath:
Close the wide gap & arbitrage will naturally die... threats won't do Jack!

The wide margin will tempt even "Angels" to explore if an opportunity to profit presents itself..

The CBN cant do dat as of now. If devaluation is done and naira falls to say 250, the parallel will still hoard and create artificial scarcity to sell for 400+.

We simply dont av enough dollars to satisfy our high import taste. Hence the dollar should be reserved for the most important things...dats what PMB is saying

Op u are on point.

The only problem with the story is the fact that the mother was refused custody of the girl despite repeated attempts.

Other than that, its simply a love story gone wrong!

How can you compare the perfomance of someone who used 8 years, another 5.5yrs, another1.8yrs and lastly someone who has used 8months??


Is dat not crass stupidity?

Go find work!

If buhari had sacked somebody for this reason...... eh!!

The wailers will Scream die

tuniski:
1. The real reason for the unprecedented depreciation of the naira to 345/$ is the sluggishness of the current govt. It was 197/$ as of 29/may/2015. A GEJ's govt would have devalued and create a forex regime stability. The decline in oil revenue though critical and frustrating, there is no way out of a weakening naira but, having stability will largely cushion this spiraling depreciation and 'technical devaluation'. 200 to 345 within 8months and still falling is a disaster.

2. FDI (Foreign Direct Investments) won't have ceased and declined. Investors work within a stable forex regime and clear directional govt. Stability allows for planning and execution. This will ultimately mitigate against the unabated increase in headline inflation. Jobs will be saved and the Q on Q sectoral declines would have been stemmed.

3. Borrowing. GEJ would have effectively borrowed as needed frontally as a proactive measure. It is clear to all, buhari is having difficulty borrowing as its stand due to the neophyte nature of his economic team promoting welfarist packages during a period of austerity! It remains a mockery of economics that a nation facing dwindling revenue is politically offering welfarism. 500bn on waste during a time of desperate need for investment in capex is sure a no no to lenders.

4. Structural shift. This govt as seen from the scandal of budgeting only say one thing and does another. The first and most significant policy instrument of the govt has exposed the hypocrisy of the administration. Diversification has always been part of every govt for decades. However, the emphasis and political will to radically make the shift has been largely lacking. Taxation is now being drummed up as if it is new, instead of the norm even as the active economic agents are facing hard times occasioned by instability. So who do u tax? U don't drive away investors locally and globally and expect to increase revenue via tax. A GEJ would have continue to attract more investments.

5. Psychology of govt: the current govt blaming policy and a victim mentality have been a negative signal to all. They campaigned and threatened parallel govt should they not win. Now they have won and with no post election litigation for the first time in our democratic journey. The immediate goodwill was massive but, has now been replaced by blaming and jerk kneel response to governance. Great leaders are made through hard times! Obama came in during global meltdown and a USA facing two wars in Iraq n Afghanistan but, didn't make blaming Bush/republicans governance! Today, unemployment has falling from the 10.4% high of 2009 to. 4.7% today.
Things won't positively change playing the victim for a mandate u campaigned Vigorously across the country for, no it won't!

1. This was the exact same reason, babangida govt gave us during SAP of the 80s, devalue and stabilize the currency, we all know the rest of the story.


2. Which foreign investors? The paper investors like JP Morgan? Or the saboteurs like MTN? Infact which investor has left since buhari took over? FDI will flow if we solve our infrastructural deficit and not due to crude oil price.

3. Borrowing under gej would av being a big irony, wouldn't it? For a govt with the highest revenue in nigerian history for over 5yrs to start borrowing with 7 months of shortfall of revenue shows the excellent management of the economy.

4. Even a neonate knows the budget was sabotaged! Dont worry we will trash out the perpetrators. Moreover aw many times do we need to explain the importance of welfare in reviving a struggling economy? Social welfare packages was one the most important instruments used in the USA during recession. Go figure.

5 you got a point here though! But the APC needs to inform the masses the extent of the ineffectual buffoon!

cecegorz:
I don't agree with your classification, So let me tweak it a little bit;

1. Your Lower class should actually be survivors! How can you term a family of four with annual income of N1m as Lower class? When a 3bed flat in any decent part of Lagos is now aprox. 600k/annum. Add school fees to the mix and the man is sweating by the middle of every month.
This earner can only manage a mini-flat with his large family!

2. Your middle class should be the Lower class- Earning 2-6m/annum with a family of four can afford one a decent living, a good apartment in a decent neighbourhood, fairly good schools for the kids, Clean Tokumbo cars and a few change for fine dinning at good restaurants, but it will be hard to raise enough equity to finance your own home.

3. Your upper middle class, should be the Middle class proper - Earnings of between 10-20m/annum is about the range where one can at least enjoy some luxuries, you can afford to buy your own home/apartment, get the kids in a high profile school, afford family vacations abroad, brand new cars... etc...

4. Upper Class - Over 20m in annual earnings, these are the top management cadres in solid companies, Real successful SME business owners, he can afford a 5-6bed duplex at the Lekkis of this country, with the retinues of drivers and cooks; they are the ones 'chopping life', their earnings are already hedged against any form of inflation

5. The top 1% should be those above 50m/annum, top dog Enterpreneurs and the politicians, their lifestyles need no introductions

Couldn't agree more. For cities like lagos, vast majority may never leave dat survivor cum lower class bracket!

Doctors stage strike in English hospitals

February 10, 2016



Thousands of junior doctors at hospitals in England staged a second strike Wednesday against proposed new conditions and pay rates for working unsociable hours.

Junior doctors − all medics below consultant level− were providing only emergency care during the 24-hour strike, which runs until 8:00am Thursday.

Nearly 3,000 operations have been postponed, National Health Service England said.

The main point of dispute between doctors and the government is over whether Saturday should be classed and paid as a normal working day.

Prime Minister David Cameron’s centre-right government says the reforms are needed to help create a “seven days a week” NHS where the quality of care is as high at the weekends as on weekdays.

Junior doctors demonstrated outside hospitals around England.

Abhishek Joshi, a heart doctor at St Bartholomew’s Hospital in London, said the new contracts could stop hospital operators from being penalised if doctors work prolonged shifts, “at the end of which we’ll be tired and therefore dangerous”.

“There have been studies to show that tired doctors are even worse than drunk drivers,” he told AFP.

“Would you want a drunk driver operating on you?… Saving your heart in the middle of the night? That’s not what we want.”

Outside Guy’s Hospital in London, demonstrators held placards reading “Not fair, not safe” and “Tired doctors make mistakes”.

Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt insisted junior doctors were being offered “a fair deal”.

Eight studies in five years had shown weekend mortality rates were higher and he had to “do something about that”, he told the BBC.

A first 24-hour strike was staged on January 12. A 48-hour strike planned for January 26 was called off.

There are more than 50,000 junior doctors in England, making up a third of the medical workforce.

They are qualified medical practitioners who work while studying for qualifications for more senior roles.

A senior government source said there was a “very reasonable offer on the table” and “hopefully they can accept it”.

“At the moment there doesn’t seem to be any sort of movement from the BMA side,” the source said.

The government could simply impose the new contracts, and “we’re not going to remove that from the table”, the source added.

Doctor Johann Malawana, chairman of the British Medical Association’s junior doctor committee, said the strike was “a resounding rejection of the government’s threat to impose an unfair contract”.

“Junior doctors already work around the clock, seven days a week and they do so under their existing contract,” he said.

“If the government wants more seven-day services then, quite simply, they need more doctors, nurses and diagnostic staff, and the extra investment needed to deliver it.”

Hahahaha!!!!

Cow rearer 375k naira, messenger 350k?

Abeg i wan apply. I hope say dem get another dasuki for dia!

MonPro:
First he get's a polite invite. As a renown junketeer he may not be able to defend an absence if he doesn't honour the polite invitation at the Hague.

If he doesn't honour the invitation, it may then be converted to an arrest warrant.

If he doesn't surrender himself, he will then be declared a fugitive and the junketeering ends as he will start hiding like his friend Bashir the rat at international conferences.[/b]

-Some people will then call him An Ineffectual dullard Daura fugitive

Message to every soldier and police man out there-That bullet and AK47 you are holding there could send your president to jail. ICC have seen the little children you killed searching for IPOB members in the East. How far IPOB will go is dependent how civilized you handle this case.

Buhari release Kanu in exchange for drop of charges at the ICC. The future doesn't look bright for you on this. The evidence of killings of easterner are introvertible, even your comments haven't help matters. The Ball, your Court. My cent!

Sorry but did you actually wrote dis or u dubbed it. What an indomie generation!

egift:
Which Truth? Abeg you can hang it on your neck.

For Kalu to get bail is like pulling out a tooth from a dragon. Now imagine how hard it will be to walk out a free man when the real case begins. Everyone that listen to his station has the evidence against him.

Now I understand why NBC left the station running for long - they were just recording the evidence

recording evidence?!,!!!! Lolzzz

egift:
And your tribal bigotry blinded you to know that this thread is proudly brought to you by a full blooded Igbo man that is a true believer of the Nigerian project.

I put it to you that it is easier for Nnamdi Kanu to be granted bail today and Nigeria colonize the whole of West Africa than for any BiaNonse of a Caveland to be established in Aligbo.

If you are tired of Nigeria try Somalia. I know your problem is that you can't even afford Flight Ticket, that is why you are languishing in the Zoo like that you emperor-wannabe.

Oga egift, abeg soffry soffry trash them o!

They are presently in state of highpitched wailing and gnashing of teeth

I hope kanu's arse isnt servicing one dic.k in kuje hence the desire to perpetuate

Redoil:
Poverty in south west is taking another dimension to the north. And yet they are chanting sai tinubu and sai boohary.

Walahi, u be idiot o!

playtheblues:
GEJ shines in USA, Germany, Africa.



Shine on GEJ.

Shining President Jonathan, keep shining too. May you not shine in kuje prisons o, ISE!

Sai Baba!

May you live long so enemies can wail long too

Aw much?

@mayor, most of the volvo jeeps come with a 5cylinder engine.

Oga gazzuz, i dont want to abuse you o!

All the gurus in the house i hail o!
