You idiots already lost your chance. There is now way in hell you can mobilise or galvanize the people for a protest as at now, or anytime soon.

You are dumb .....

Like comprehension is a big problem for you...


Now ask your friend how visible it is for someone to pay balance of tuition fee with house rent working 20 hours per week.


Don't mistake the warnings on this thread to those that say...ehnnn UK is boring/depressing....ehn after converting the house rent they pay in naira and they'll start shouting Don't come.


This is student visa route thread...

The warning is different from those....(and honestly, those other ones are bullshit)

If u av free accommodation and feeding is sorted out and u av like 70 percent of the fee already...


Why not...

All that is being said is Don't bank on 20 hours work limit to pay rent and like 60/70 percent of the fee.

Which is what lots of people bank on.

If u don't fall into that category, the warning is not for u...

the comprehension problem choke.

Maybe he will take in all these ones from Teeside in the link above that will now be deported. Dem dey tell people make dem plan well and come prepared based on realities, he dey talk say make dem continue to dey use 'my case is different' as strategy.

Let everyone use their tongue to count their teeth. Left to me at this point, no need for any advice or warnings anymore. Dem no dey telli person na🤣

Lifestone:
To a local business. That's great, the wealth created will remain in Nigeria

local business? At least use Google before you type some things

Peerielass:
University education is a choice. You don’t need to be a university graduate to be successful in life, there are other routes like apprenticeship or learning a trade.

Private healthcare is a choice, you can use NHS like Keir and wait forever for your appointment and procedure.

Private nursery school is also a choice. Most people keep their kids at home until they reach school age.

None of these private services are any different from private school education but Labour has chosen to discriminate against one group of people to match their left wing ideology.

very well said..A perfectly logical submission

Prigozhin:
The name of the program is UKVI program 😂

lol

When i say L, you say Lamba
L! Lamba
L! Lamba

And there i was concluding that broda Ade got a scholarship to study abroad with a job offer back in Nigeria afterwards...

But as broda Ade say British govt don ready to sponsor him education with job waiting for him afterwards (maybe as a British MI6 operative😁) na im be say either one person for ughelli dey deceive broda Ade, or broda Ade wan deceive person, or broda Ade dey deceive himself.

Deceit sha dey involved sha😎

Frankiss44:
And the funny thing is that the analog u are seeing there will cost thrice as much as the more effective digital from south Africa

the bastard Yakubu and INEC received almost 400billion naira from national budget, and extra donations from international bodies bringing the total to around 500billion. This was about 1billion USD at the time.

South Africa budgeted (not spent) around 2b Rand for this election, which at the current exchange rate is just around 105m USD.

Look at what SA did with 105m dollars and look at the disgrace we put up with 1billion dollars.

It can never be well with ApC as all their enablers for the level of regression and backwardness they have brought us to.

They will all go to waste like a powder in the wind. No be curse na fact!

Fun Fact: SA is bigger than Nigeria, so that means a higher logistics cost. Voting commmenced on time, no violence, no thugs...voter turnout was far far more than ours....and they budgeted (not even sure they spent it all) one-tenth of what we budgeted with so many flowers, bells and whistles to show.

The generator Republic is truly the Ant of Africa and dreg of the world!

These are 2022 figures

Na everybody dey multi-dimensionally poor for this 2024 so🤣

Oh my!

What a conundrum 🤣🤣🤣

APOPTOSIS:
Never Call GOD...on this matter.
The world is designed to allow people to choose who governs them.
IF 80% of Nigerians decide today that they would make a woman president, the chances of such coming to pass will almost be 💯. Therefore keep God out of your mess

The Leaders humans choose are products of same environment in which the electorates will be exercising their rights at the ballot.

A society with 85% of Fools will always stand a higher statistical chance of offering idiots their highest offices.

So, please keep God out of it

well said. I basically said the same thing months ago, in a travel thread for that matter, but still essentially the same thing

Treadway:
sorry, just went back to re-check his post, and saw that he didn't put that there. So I will rightly help him upgrade/flesh up that concept.

The quality of the dominant group matters o. As you have rightly identified, as in the case of Nigeria, when the dominant group is still largely archaic, then we have what we have. Which is one of the reasons why we wonder how we keep getting the worst of us in the so-called democracy. It is cos the numbers of those who DONT have any semblance of sense far outstrips the number of those who do.

The dominant racial group we have is plagued with willful poverty and a gross aversion to education, and thus an aversion to a progressive existence....and that is one of the prime reasons we are where we are today. They know this and carry the badge of their huge numbers with pride.... unfortunately doing so ninu oshi at ise (lack and despondency), and dragging the rest of the country into the abyss.

Democracy is actually not just govt of the people as we tend to chorus, but in reality govt of the majority of the people....now when the quality of that majority is shit, then you are doomed. Will our dominant block somehow in no time become wiser, more enlightened, more educated? your guess is as good as mine.

Maybe in 300 years

NinjaMetahuman:
intend?

I thought you are so sure that they have been paying billions for subsidy? What do you mean intend again? Do you know what intend means?

You won't even come back to this conversation if you have any shame

I literally told you that it will be illegal and practically impossible for any president to pay any form of subsidy without budget.

You said no, they are paying from tinubu's pocket, only to come back gloat over what exactly?
Gloat over the fact that they intend to pay subsidy that they are yet to pay but claim they have been paying?

NinjaMetahuman:
first off, no. It's not about basic math, if is it's, petrol price will be the same world wide.
Price varies based on past deals and infrastructure or distance to move petrol around.

Secondly, only nnpc can tell you the actual landing cost, not newspaper.

3rdly, price of fuel varies nationwide. It's not uniform.

Fourthly, nnpc is not the sole importer of petrol anymore, but people continue to buy from nnpc because they already have the infrastructure and to get decent landing cost which other importers cannot compete with but newspapers keep announcing landing costs for competitions.


Fifthly and the most important; You can't pay subsidy worth billions without putting it in budget for approval of Senate. Not only will that be illegal, billions of naira is not going to come from thin air, it has to come from somewhere? Question is where?

because they have cleverly tagged subsidy as under-recovery.

With just a little intelligence, one can guess they are simply importing at a huge loss and plugging the gaping hole consequent from that with/from other sources, basically just buying time till Dangote comes on stream and they hands off.

And of course they know Nigerians will never unite to ask questions, cos some folks will take it upon themselves to blindly defend the craziness FOC.

Read that slowly.

Go argue about the word intend till infinity with Edun.

Simple logical deductions from prices of diesel which has also been deregulated should make it clear to anyone with some intelligence what is what. They are not recovering full costs cos it is just common sense which is clearly uncommon, and they will plug the hole somehow, and you will read it in bold print font size 32 on the 7pm news sbortly, since logic isn't your forte and you really truly need everything to be spelt out slowly.

Pele ti e.

BouharryArtikou:
You were promised by the Government? Which government? The outgoing UK Conservative UK Government? The incoming UK Labour Government or the high performing Nigeria APC Government?

If you are able to provide an answer to my question, hand on heart I promise I will advice/assist you.

that job promise part got me looking at that person's claim somehow. That's a new one. Oh well, none of my business🤷

Edited: I get it now. He must mean the Nigerian govt. Since he is on a scholarship provided by the Nigerian govt, it stands to reason that the job after graduation offer must also have been made by the Nigerian govt

alsudan:
So according to Thiefnibuu Television (TVC) Elrufai looted 423 Billion Dollars.

Not sure Nigeria has earned that much since 1960.

at the bolded...Nigeria was a 550+billion dollar economy before APC came and plagued it with poverty and regression.

NinjaMetahuman:
ok

Lemme know when you are ready to answer my question.

lucky me, lucky you....we didn't even need to wait so long ki ifa to fi idi oro mule🤣🤣🤣

your question was answered in full by your Finance Minister yesterday.

Now that your finance minister has spelled it out to you lot very slowly so y'all can hopefully assimilate fragments of the details of how they intend to 'plug the hole' with an estimated budget of 5.4trn, I have no more use for this drab convo.

Relate with Edun and your other captors directly.

Christistruth00:
Professionals who almost destroyed the Economy because of unnecessary Naira Note Change

hahaha..this is the new lie this crew will be peddling, i see.

Same crew was shouting thru the rooftops and blaming Emefoole for printing excess naira thru ways and means, as the SOLE reason for the inflation today...

yet same crew stood against, rallied foolish Nigerians against and thwarted Emefoole's plan to remedy his fuuuuck up by mopping all that excess cash thru the brilliant and should-have-been effective currency redesign policy....

Coincidentally, same crew rallied Nigerians against fuel subsidy, and admitted on live TV 12 years later that it was all politics.

Same crew is now still saying the currency redesign policy that was supposed to solve a self-imposed problem by the same crew, is the problem.

What manner of people are these??

Not unsurprisingly, illiteracy is written all over this ignorant thread.

Malignantly ignorant children..smh

NinjaMetahuman:
what is under recovery?

They will be spending over 500 billion unbudgeted money?

Nnpc didn't declare any loss worth trillions in last fiscal year?
Because the so called unofficial subsidy plus operational costs will cost them biggest loss in the history of the country worth trillions.

So the question you have failed to answer, where is the money coming from?
If nnpc is importing at a loss, where are they seeing the money they keep using to import more?

If you are importing rice, and you are selling at a loss, and you already have budgets for your other financial dealings, where is the money you are throwing around coming from? Magical thin air?

where did they see ways and means that they now say is causing inflation. Did you get the memo when they got it back then in real time?

I'd say keep building your strawman..in time you, me, we will all know how they are plugging the hole, just like we all now know about the ways and means fiasco. ..but then again you may even still be willfully oblivious to even the quoted ways and means fiasco🤷

Fools.

You have been deceived AGAIN.

Your ranks broken and weakened.

How did you think you would succeed in championing another showdown come weekend when you see/realise you have only been handed a flaccid diiick?

Awon oponu!

Dem ton take lies swear for APC🤣.

Let's wait and see if this 'announcement' will happen this 2024.

ElSudani:
Bullshit, are you intelligent writing this nonsense? Is your own definition of democracy that everyone must vote for the same candidate? Toyin is being bullied because that is what Obidients do and this is the only reason I hate them without remorse.
I would vote for a dog before I vote for Obi.

you clearly are not intelligent, hence this disjointed response.

Carry on.

Damilare5882:
SORRY FOR YOURSELF !!..FYI ... IM IN A BETTER PLACE ALREADY!!!...THANK GOD I NEVER LISTENED TO PEOPLE LIKE YOU ..Instead you coming here spreading negative energy around ... go and rebrand and channel your energy to something more productive !!!

na so oo. They are haters...they should mind their business. Telling the reality is negativity. Meanwhile just may 22 you typed this

Damilare5882:
Hello everyone , I am currently at the point of uploading documents for my Visa application. I had previous refusal from Canada student visa application last year and I have declared it in my UK application. My question is --- Should I upload the refusal letter as part of the documents I am submitting ?

Thank you.

ain't nobody holding you back. Do you! But allow those who also would learn and re-strategize take heed to the warnings and re-strategize. Live and let live, no be so?

Germany opportunity card is out! A better alternative to this doomed wild goose chase. Una wey don chook head already, God go help una. Coming back to Nigeria in present day naija is a death mission. Since you can't turn back the hands of time, take your L, sit down and re-strategize, maybe one spouse and the kids can return while the person who remains roughs it out anyhow possible in the UK or the EU, not Ireland asylum tins o, cos that one is just plain foolishness all over again

https://punchng.com/political-choice-i-have-learnt-my-lesson-toyin-abraham/?amp

does Toyin look like someone that can identify or assimilate transformative strategies? Does Tiwa savage look like someone who is well versed in leadership or economics, abi na tekno be intellectual juggernaut?

We seem to think because someone is famous or a celebrity it means they have sense or are intelligent. Even the ones that are intelligent, still show poor decision making and only have strengths in their specific functional area eg Wole Soyinka. Wetin concern Nobel laureate in literature and story telling with economics and development? He is a story teller not an economist. She is a freaking actress not an economist, she can be a politician though, you need good deceptive acting skills as a politician

yewit37486:
None of your points above changes the fact that the landing cost of PMS can never be the same as the current selling price in Nigeria considering the cost of the base product - crude. And obviously petrol cost can never be the same worldwide, because there are different factors including if it's produced locally or imported, if local even the distance to the refinery is a factor, there is FX as well (and we know what is currently going on in Nigeria with FX).

You can live in delusion all you want, but it doesn't change the facts unfortunately. There is nothing like decent landing cost, you must pay the product cost and shipping cost + others, and most importantly you are paying in DOLLARS. That alone is a significant impact.

he/she knows the truth, he/she is just sworn to defend lies instead.

Kenochi:
I believe that petrol might still be subsidized but it will stop very soon
It is not a matter of if but when
As at today,Diesel and Aviation fuel are no longer being imported and you can fact check me
For petrol,we are in the last days of importation so I tell whoever is responsible to enjoy the dividends be cause the party will soon end
I will not stop shouting that the Federal Govt. must sell off those scraps called Refineries
Why waste money repairing something that is irreparable,what exactly are you trying to proof
Those scrap metals will never work,all the Engineers in those scrap metals should be sent on a six month sabbatical to Dangote Refinery to learn how to operate a Refinery because they haven't operated one in close to ten years

petrol costs more to refine than diesel. So if Dangote is selling 1 million litre orders today at 1100 (last I checked) from his depot, how much do you think he will sell petrol?

Unless they will pay subsidy to Dangote, warm up for the new reality of paying around 1200 for petrol, WHENEVER eventually he starts selling.

Simple as that.

I just laugh when I still read that some people erroneously are waiting for Dangote to starts selling petrol at low prices. He sell diesel at low prices ni? Lol

I said it.

The key thing to note in that screenshot from the University of Reading is 'they have noticed a pattern from THE REGION YOU APPLIED FROM'

So there you have it. Be prepared for a time very soon when more schools will now make you (Nigerians) jump through hoops to even get your application considered, deeper scrutiny on top your application, hoops that other nationalities won't have to jump through, and scrutiny they wouldn't have to face.

Why?

Cos y'all too ridiculously LOUD!

Smh

maasoap:
He had my votes last year and that of my dependants. He won't have it again. I'm just concerned about the other two candidates if they are still going to be his rivals in the next election because they all promised the same or similar economic policies that targets the masses negatively.

why so fickle? Just one year and you are disembarking from the mandate.

After this first tenure ends with certainly nothing to show, anywhere I am on this God's green earth, God-willing I go come vote and mobilise for Thubv. I already played the role of Naija advocate warning everyone that cared to listen about him, now I want to play his advocate and just would like to see what any baga will tell me to de-market him, that I don't already know, and haven't already said before.

Reptyle:
In all honesty, when have we ever witnessed a reversal in the prices of goods and services in this country? Throughout my life here, I haven't seen such a phenomenon. At best, I've observed commodity prices remaining steady over several years, unlike the present situation where we see products changing prices almost on a daily basis.

The reality is that the global and local economic conditions of that time were vastly different from the current scenario. Things were far more stable back then. This is not to excuse the present government, of course, because in my opinion, if you seek a job, you should perform it diligently. However, it makes little sense to compare Nigeria in 1999 with Nigeria in 2023, unless we're being completely irrational.

the present govt caused this same problem you're yapping about!!! Were you not here when he floated the naira and removed subsidy at the same time? Were prices changing on a daily basis even during bubu time? Something this recent and you're still attempting to twist it!! Ha

RIWANE IS A ROTTEN LIAR FROM THE PITS OF HELL.

Where the hell did he get those FAKE GDP Per Capita figures?

NIGERIA’s GDP Per Capita is over $2,500 as any Google search will show you RIGHT NOW.

Where did he get $1,110 from?

He sat in his house and calculated it from his nyash?

WHAT SORT OF NONSENSICAL, BLATANT LIE IS THIS?

you're the liar. Divide $250b by 200m and you have a good estimate of your GDP per capita as at today.

Study hard, know book, una no gree. Luxembourg has a GDP per capita of over $140k, and the USA has a GDP per capita of over $75k. On the basis of this the USA while it boasts the largest economy in the world, it still isn't the wealthiest country in the world.

Won ti pa yin mo aye, eiti mo....hehehe🤣

A lot of ignorance on display here 🤣

Shebi the perm wearing nigga was saying Tinubu is on the right track.... clearly on the right track to hell!

To the ignorant ones, the term richer in this instance is not about the GDP size (of which we have been relegated to 4th position with no hope of regaining number one spot in the next decade) but rather GDP per capita. To get GDP per capita, you divide the GDP by the population of a country, meaning our GDP per capita will be about $1000 or likely less as at now.

Countries are ranked by GDP per capita to show how wealthy a country is. That is the wealth per person as an average. The USA has a GDP per capita of over $75k and Luxembourg has GDP per capita of over $140k

Yet the sad part is they don't have useless runts hailing their worthless klepto political class who have stolen the bulk of the money that is meant for everybody.

So yes Ghana is richer than Nigeria now, thanks in full to Thubv and Buhari who killed and buried the naira with their thoughtless policies and the almajiris up north breeding like gutter rats!

That is one stupid, and stupid-looking man.


Pathetic!
