aspire to perspire, a thread...

True story, a friend of mine back in the day working in a good multinational pharma company, excellent salesman. His company paid more and had more benefits than where I was at the time. Did I mention he was/is an excellent sales man, so an opportunity opened in the company for a somewhat country manager 'kinda' position (not top management perse) but he would be the person handling that product portfolio for Nigeria and in due time two other west african countries. He went from being med rep to that in just a space of 4 years, cos his sales was phenomenal. Even his Regional manger at the time beef am, cos this role puts him above his RM sort of. It was an enviable role, the first few months in he had gone to about 4 countries in that MNC for specific trainings. I don't know what his pay would be but we all reckoned it would be significantly better. He moved to Lagos as we were in Akure at the time, got an apartment in Magodo and all that. Fast forward, 8mths in my guy was kicked out, and almost jailed. Why? The company kinda health insurance is the type where you claim an expense, pay, and get a refund. Even ordinary headache this guy fit claim 200k, but he got greedy. He claimed 8million naira claiming his wife underwent a serious operation. I guess while trying to verify maybe due to the cost, they found out the numbers and hospitals he claimed were all fake. Na one of our guys numbers he put for receipt and every. That one had to go into hiding. When that got out, they now beamed a searchlight on his other activities and found more skeletons. Well he couldn't get a job in the industry for about two years (I believe he was blacklisted). Eventually he left for Canada with his wife 4 years ago (the wife is from a very rich fam). They are doing fine now. He is still in sales.

Moral of the story assuming after cashing 8million successfully my guy dey ball and every, if you ask am say what is the secret, wetin he go talk, NA GOD oooo. Lol

Abi moti believe ni, unless there is more to it.
Politics › Re: Did Poverty In Anambra Rise While Peter Obi Was Governor? - Fact Check by Treadway: 9:32am On Nov 16, 2022
Mynd44:
Former Central Bank Of Nigeria and Present Governor of Anambra State, Professor Charles Soludo in an article titled "History beckons and I will not be silent " wrote about the poverty level of Anambra state from 2006 to 2010 while the present Presidential Candidate of the Labor Party, Peter Obi was in his first term as governor of Anambra state.

In an article which many described as either very needless as they claimed Charles Soludo is merely bitter and angry, others praised it as they said it brought into public light numerous false misconceptions by Peter Obi's supporters.

Either way, his comment on the statistics of the poverty level in Anambra, got tongues wagging and fingers typing (mine included) and a lot of people have said the former CBN governor simply lied (but did he?)

Claim: Charles Soludo wrote that "…poverty in Anambra actually grew (from less than 25% in 2005) to about 53% under Peter Obi in 2010/2011 but fell under Willie Obiano to 14.78% in 2020. Yes, poverty more than doubled under Peter Obi and more than 50% of Ndi Anambra were in poverty under him. Go and verify"

This isn't all as he had wrote something similar in 2015 in an article titled "Buhari vs Jonathan: Beyond the Election" where he wrote that "According to the National Bureau of Statistics, poverty rose under his watch in Anambra from 20% in 2004 (lowest in Nigeria then) to 68% in 2010 (a 238% deterioration!)."

These two quotes seem similar but can also be be different as the numbers dont match but if we look closely, in the 2022 letter, he mentioned 2010/2011 which was mostly measured in 2011 and in the 2015 letter, he was specific about the year 2010.

Verification: According to a press briefing By then Statistician General of the federation and lead of the National Bureau of Statistics, Yemi Kale in a press briefing titled "Press Briefing By The Statistician-General Of The Federation/Chief Executive
Officer, National Bureau Of Statictics Dr. Yemi Kale" delivered in February 2012.

Now since the NBS does not release poverty levels per years, we can only judge with the 2010 report

It is seen that the poverty level of Anambra state as at 2010 was at 68% (see image below) which matches the value quoted by Professor Charles Soludo in his 2015 article.

Verdict: The statement by the Anambra state governor, Professor Soludo claiming that the poverty level in Anambra while Peter Obi was governor rose to 68% in 2010 and 53% in 2010/2011 can be said to be true and not an exaggeration.


Also notable is that when Peter Obi responded to Professor Soludo in 2015, he did not refute the poverty percentage.
ok, let's go with this info. Benin was 72.5 poverty rate when Adams Oshiomole was Governor, buy people say Adams did well as gov. Don't they? Don't you? Not to mention most of the states excluding south west had high numbers. Ekit is the only one less than 60, and guess who was gov then, Fayose! Debate that, oya I dey hear

There is no country in the world that has the will and military strength to challenge the US like Russia. China can't try it. In fact Iran is bolder than China in this regard. Iran attacked the US military base in Iraq, when Soleimani (Iranian general) was killed.

During the Cuba crisis. The Soviet Union soldiers shot down a US spy plane over Cuba. They left Europe for America to kill US military pilot. The world was shocked when the US sweep it under the carpet.

Few months ago, the Russians attacked Germany consulate in Ukraine. They West claimed nobody was killed and they also sweet it under the carpet.

Lithuania blocked Russian main land access to Kaliningrad. Russia threatened to respond. NATO immediately unblocked Russian access to Kaliningrad.

If it were the Russians that told Pelosi no to visit Taiwan. Trust me, she won't dare.

That article is only on paper and for weak countries that NATO can bully. The United States ambassador to NATO was interviewed few minutes on CNN concerning this and the man said they don't want to escalate the Ukraine crisis beyond Ukraine. It's gonna be nuclear and United States will never risk her own existinction because of Ukraine. Russia has the highest and most sophicated nuclear warheads ahead of all. Europe will never be so stupid to experience war in their continent. The attack in Poland and Kiev just proved how useless the United States air defense shield is.
yea, I agree with your submission. I don't believe NATO will do a thing. But if i/you/we read any kin news in the next few days of any attack on mother Russia, no to find bricklayer build bunker o grin. The end don come be that..lol

Seunpinky, you should be the one in this article, not this equally amazing lady. You should be the one being celebrated for a very very very rare feat, if true. And I'm not being cheesy. If you can have 120k with more to spare in 16mths in Canny and someone is making news headlines for 100k total in 3.5yrs in the USA, they need to meet you asap

You don’t have to believe me on the downpayment amount. There are people that know me on this forum, and they know it’s not empty blabbing.

Anyways good luck to both of us as we continue our life’s journey
no blame me my guy. It would be foolhardy to believe every rubbish you read on social media. Cheers to more successes and wins bro.

Ps: CNBC suppose interview you oo if you have proof of the 120k (not even total earnings o, but house down payments only) in just 16mths in Canny. You don bench this lady wey make news headlines cos she save total 100k in 3.5 years in the USA by far. Seriously I would like to read your interview soon. That would be something

I know my response won’t change your opinion but ….
1. I have been in Canada for 16months landed July 2021.
2. I call Canada home for now till the foreseeable future and I don’t need to buy assets in Nigeria before u can term me to be successful or not. Within my 16months in Canada, I have acquired two houses before u shout mortgage note I had to pay 120k cad in cash as down payments for the two houses. You can decide to go Tru my previous posts to get to know more about me.
If I had channeled that 120k cad to assets in Nigeria that would be approximately 70million naira using exchange rate of 590 to 1 cad. I am very sure that with 70million naira I can afford to buy a choice property on the mainland and part of the island.

So let me ask you, have you made 70million as income not savings ooo?
I don't believe you on the 120k.
No, I haven't made 72m, but even this 72m you mentioned is just for now. TRF it now and cash it. Only then does it become real. At a time just 2yrs ago, CAD was 215, so if something out of the ordinary happened today (it still happened last week) and the exchange rate dropped, you wouldn't have 72m, and won't be able to buy the house on the island or mainland, except from japa crew wey dey find ticket money sha. And no, you don't have two houses yet. I have mine though.

Also what is my opinion? I have an inkling you don't even know it to begin with. Pls tell me so I know that you are on the mark.

Meanwhile, congrats on your choices. Not doing bad with mine either.

2nd a simple letter to US government or US Embassy in Nigeria to confirm if the document originated from them will not cost Dino, Bode George,Reno.....a penny.
3rdly. They should visit the court if a criminal issue is suspected.
I will not bother with politicking/ inuendos. Present facts and issues related to governance for discussion. That's what the citizens care about.

You see the problem? I've been seeing this document since 2005. I dare say that there is no election cycle where BAT is active that you don't see the accusations and this document as a counter. It is why many are surprised about the Noise. There is no issue raised about BAT this year that has not been raised by Bode George at least 3 times in the past; Including the CTC of the court order just being peddled.
Which is why one wonders why it will take forever for opposition to initiate a court process if they are convinced. Esp when Bode claim BAT sent him to jail. He should pay BAT back instead of disturbing public space.

thanks for sharing. I do hope someone takes the bull by the horn. People/politicians have been falsifying documents for as long as I know, and most just fly by without question unnoticed or uncontested. Two former ministers forged NYSC certs and still somehow passed screening and got confirmed. That is for an organisation within the country, which you would expect would be easy to verify! Maybe something will come out of this, that failed to be actualised in 2003 for lack of exposure or clarity (as we are doing now). Time will tell. Who knows maybe the opposition failed to see the red flags that we have now spotted. Are you convinced a genuine letter from the US Consulate will be riddled with errors? I am not! Also do we know efforts that have been made to suppress and gag any further inquiry into this. Anyway, I noticed something significant and I am talking about it. I won't hold my breath that anyone will face consequences. No be naija we dey. Bubu became president without meeting the requirements (in my view).

A formal letter in response to a previous request should carry a subject with "RE:" preceding it.
Not only that, in the last paragraph, the letter reads " in these and other matters" it should be in this (singular)......
Lastly, the general language of the letter sounds like something written by someone looking to impress his readers with long, meaningless grammar. It doesn't look like an official draft at all.

Tinubu is complicit I know deep down you know it...but I would not pretend it is an almost impossible reality to accept for an ardent Jagaban supporter.

There is no over emphasising the stack reality that Tinubu is most likely to win this election if not stopped by the relevant authorities for breach of constitutional provisions...afteral this Nigeria where everything goes solong as you've got the financial muscles and wit to maneuver your ways.

We can't be called a shi.thole for nothing, whatever becomes of it we all must ride it together.
Deloitte was not even previously Hansen and sells . Deloitte was a separate entity, so was Hansel and sells. They merged to form Deloitte Hansen and sells. Tinubu either worked for deloitte, or Hansel and sells or worked there following the merger in the 70's. Their Tinubu use him own mouth talk say he worked at Deloitte, the urchin you quoted is here claiming he worked in Hansen and sells. Lol
