Kukutente23:
Wow. Is Nigeria starting to owe international investors again?
nah

Letters of credit are guarantees provided by banks to big importers or other international business concerns. Basically it signals that your banks are not only strong enough to fund whatever the level of transaction the letter authorises, but also speaks to the strength of the businesses that use them, cos logically no sensible bank would guarantee a business that they are not certain can repay.

So what this report means is a cumulative depiction of how banks cannot foot the bills of much of the transactions in recent times esp when converted to FX equivalent, and also depicts that most businesses have stopped international trade/imports.

Don't be surprised these clowns will come back and tell us Nigeria's economy is $1trn and Asiwaju has fulfilled his promise

Lagos will also become $500bn and second largest in Africa

Zombies will then start dancing on empty stomach

Ojowu already told them to thread softly on the propaganda but will they listen?
they can't cover this one up...not because the criminals do not desire to lie and deceive as usual, but I'm guessing because this will likely be vetted by external bodies.
The most they can theoretically do is change methodology like what they did with unemployment figures, but even in that case you, I and everyone else with a sane mind knows it was just a clownish circus show, as Nigeria is known world over and quoted on the known levels of poverty and unemployment.

X=?
√? =?
Assuming? = π
Then √π =√22/7
Multiply both sides by the coefficient of π
X=22/7*22/7
X = 484/49
Using Graham's paralegal logic
X= 8/ 4
So therefore
X= 2

(✓×)² =2²

Who is making it difficult?
√8 is not 4. That is the mistake in your math.

Another simple way is to do it is solve from the answer
√8 is √4 x √2 meaning 2√2
And you know 2√2 certainly means √2 + √2

The end.

But

root x + root x =2root x

Abi?
yes 2√x but it doesn't end there
You further simplify the surd 2√2 but raising both 2 and √2 to power 2, giving you 2x2 which is 4 and √2×√2 which is 2, all in square root, giving you √8

Punch √8 on a calc and note the figure, then do 2 multiplied by the value of √2, you'll see you will get the same answer/figure for both.

Price of things don't remain same for years globally
and this folks is why we advice you to ignore individuals like this when they tell you to not save or hold your wealth in stable currencies eg the USD. They simply mostly just don't know what they are saying 99% of the time, and are only interested in making you what Yoruba's call 'da bi mo se da'.

In countries with stable currencies, prices of goods and services aside maybe real estate do not swing wildly even over 10-20 years. When a currency is stable, its store of value is stable and consequently prices are stable. Naira is a fickle currency and that explains why it swings wildly even in a mere 24hours.

2014 Honda Accord in 2014
2024 Honda Accord in 2024.

Did it swing in 10 years? Absolutely not. It stayed well within range.

Pay attention to the prices of a gallon of milk from 1995 to date. It didn't swing beyond a range of 2.5-4, since 1995!!!!! Let that sink in folks.

Rather unfortunate that Nigeria is bedeviled with a population with more of the quality of the person I quoted, wildly ignorant, uneducated and unenlightened... which explains why we are where we are.

That's for main applicant.. Called study visa... If u combine dependant u wil get close to twice that number.
what is the source of your graph? Show the source let's see na. I showed mine and it cannot be refuted. Nigeria didn't even get up to 60k visas at any time between 2018 to 2023 while China and India got between 100-140k several times between 2018-2023. That's home office stats right up there, and that is the fact.

Which is why after the sliding tackle home office gave student visas by stopping dependent, and despite that most Nigerians have stayed away due to that, admissions only dropped by 5%.

Too much noise and ado about nothing.

Dont hate ur Nigerian people.
The Naira devaluation caused a lot of issues.
People (mostly 2 years program) planned their expenses at 560. Even large percentage of September intake got their admission, CAS before naira devaluation But now exchange rate is 1900.

Even me self I say kpatakpata if I no fit push am I go sell my land clear fee. But by the time I sold the land 6 million last year December, changed the money I got less than 3500 pounds on a normal exchange rate May I fit get 10k pounds. This was land I placed on sell May

Everyone has a peculiar story that unless u put ur leg in such shoes u won't really understand.
it is not hate. It is just the way it is. All this story no concern the school. Why are you not getting that? Of course I remember you, your thread and your case. I commented and was one of those who offered encouragement, but the fact remains the school is not a charity and didn't offer those people scholarships. Nothing concerns them with Nigeria's hopeless situation caused by hopeless evil leaders. They wanted their money, and these students couldn't pay up when it was due, and now the repercussions have happened. EOD

What I wrote up there is a statement from my lecturer. He said the naira devaluation today is a reflection of the financial crisis rocking UK universities.

My school today is giving 5k to Nigerians just to accept their offer. Some school are doing whatever stuff they can to get Nigerians.

U know why Nigeria is an important mrkt to them from ages.
So let's not underestimate Nigerian power.

China and India has over 1 billion population each compared to Nigeria with 200k yet we are pulling such string in edu
again bro, why are the Indians, Chinese, Ghanaian and all the other international students at Teeside not protesting, and ONLY Nigerians are?

I don't know where you copied that graph from but I have attached a graph from .gov.uk source below, and you can see that at best we are a very very distant number 3.

See all this one no even matter, as no be main issue. The main issue is we don't have two heads or any special status in this instance. If fees had been paid before the deadlines, they wouldn't have issues. They have issues cos fees were not paid. Nothing concerns the uni with one country's/students woes.

Doing Nigerian a favour or Nigeria doing them a favour?

How many British go to uni compared to Nigeria?
How many are able to pay 20k for MSC?

due to the drop of Nigerian students most universities are not able to sustain most departments.

bro, pls correct that misinformation, just in case you are serious. The facts have been out since last year bro.

International students are sustaining the universities, not Nigerians. Nigerians are a small sub-set of those international students! The only negative reason we got recognition by home-office is that despite that the Nigerian student numbers are smaller than the rest of international students, we ended up bringing in more dependents than almost all the other intl student dependent numbers combined!

Why aren't the Chinese protesting or the Indians, or even freaking Ghanaians or all the international students from various countries not protesting at Teeside? See why I say they are being a nuisance?

The Nigerian maladministration and also the 'risk factor' that most if not all of them indulged in, caught up with them. It is painful yea, but they should take their L and re-strategize and not this stoopid protest.

You can't decide terms for the university or expect special treatment because unfortunately you have useless leaders back home that fuckkkkked things up for you. Fact is, it is none of the university's concern...and this protest will achieve nothing but even cause problems for others in the future. Maybe when Nigerians get blacklisted from applying for student visas in many of their universities people will understand.

Some of them are not helping matters.

Saying he travels to work for 18 hours to pay up his remaining school is a No-No!

Reason: The home office granted him a visa when he showed evidence of PoF, kept for 28 days.

What happened with the funds meant for school fees?

I wish the guy had based his argument on the sorry state of Tinululation of the Naira, instead of this his ‘I’m working 18 hours to pay my fees’ argument.

If the UK was serious about these kind of things, they could use the Belgium or German models of ‘blocked funds’. But we all know they will not.
eggzactly! On this one, I agree with you 💯..pathetic and annoying! and I ain't sorry to say it.

When they (Home office) change the rules and adopt block accounts like Germany now, or even outrightly blacklist Nigerians

casualobserver:


Inflation is relative. When Nigerias inflation was 14-17% for example, the west had an average inflation of 2%. Now it is about 3% in the west and to them it is a big deal enough to derail their economies. For us 3% is paradise because we have never had 3% inflation in my life time and I am no spring chicken. During Nigeria’s best economic boom since 1999 our lowest inflation rate was 7.8%. Western economies will collapse if their inflation gets to 6%….it almost did when it recently got to 5% which is the battle they have been fighting for 3 years and still have not succeeded (they are still @3%). Their target is 2%. In the US inflation is 3%, car sales have fallen, house sales have fallen, basic food items have skyrocketed. And this is just 3% inflation. We have 33% inflation but a growing economy, yet the US @ 3% inflation is tethering on the edge of stagflation…..assuming you know what that means!


They are a debt economy, we are a cash economy. In the west just 1% change in inflation can be the difference between a man losing his house and having his car repossessed. It is not so In Nigeria because we pay cash for every thing. Interest rates and inflation work differently in Nigeria and the west. So they are not like for like.

Therefore Mr wannabe Ignoramus economist, I suggest If you don’t understand economics do not comment on matters of economics just because you can pull up figures from the internet. You have to have understanding of the figures. This is not a beer parlour matter, you need to understand the meaning of the figures you are quoting and you clearly do not.

3% inflation is enough for Americans to cut down on basics like milk.
of course you deferred to worthless shalaye..all of a sudden it remembers Einstein's theory of relativity..smh

Evidently, I have more neural activity in my left testicle, than you do in your entire brain, despite being a spring chicken.

I have pointed out what I needed to, and have no interest in engaging you any further, due to paragraph 2 above.

When cost of capital alone has taken 35%, and other costs never even enter...meaning they either go public to raise equity, raise prices and pass the costs over to their goods/services, or just leave the game. Based on history, we can safely narrow it down to the last two options.
