that guy raised a valid point

mrvitalis:

Oga there is no trust between the tribes ....let's have regional government then have a Federal system thats the only

What led to the distrust in the first place?

mrvitalis:

Oil of Niger delta is what binds u guys to nigeria ...aha we keep lying to ourselves we are one ?

We CAN be one
despite the multiethnic nature of Nigeria


But it's the political elite that sow this discord (with religious leaders, Muslim especially doing the support work in dividing)


There is no tangible reason for the discord
but a disunited Nigeria is easy to loot and control
the elite want it that way

Beautyaddy:


Lol!...Why do you ask if he's joking?

Is it that hard for Nigerian passport holders to get visa-free Countries to travel to other than African Countries?

VERY HARD

chinavs9ja:
There is no doubt, the problem of Nigeria is not from the politicians but the masses. Not just the masses, the poor, fools, and idiots. A large number of idiots can bring in the wrong leaders into power. It is time to open the eye of the masses for them to wake from their foolishness. Our religious leaders should help with this! Idiots and foolish men will not make the country to move forward!


Check my signature if you believe my ministry

Truth

the masses are largely stupid

Tetehjewels:


Bello was not close to being the worst. Dickson was the worst along with several other PDP governors.

this one is looking at this from a partisan perspective

diegwu02:

Bello is far better than Ikpeazu, Ortom, Okowa and Dickson

the worst 5 govs

officialJP:
Hi guys, am planning to get a passport so that i can travel out, but to get visa is not easy, so I'll like to know which foreign country am eligible to travel to with my Nigeria passport without visa,

NB, nor African countries

Thanks

no African countries?

You must be joking right?


hahaha

Tetehjewels:


Shut up. If with all the nonsense going on in Abia state that pot bellied PDP Orangutan could still return to government house then what is that thing that APC is doing that is wrong?

Bayelsa as a PDP state failed in all ramifications despite such high amounts being received from Oil.

PDP well deserved to lose and get out.

Shame to Bayelsa PDP.

Bello is Nigeria worst gov

yet he deserved to win?

NiggerArea is finished

janettee:
I don't know why people are always interested in dating white women, lol.

Nothing wrong with that but some of you just want to date them because they are white , nothing else!.

You would date a morbidly obese white woman but won't date a morbidly obese black woman.

Things you won't tolerate with a black woman, you would with a white woman.

I've heard stories sha .

this comment tho

madridsta007:


Tribalism is a TERRIBLE thing. Nothing as evil as tribal and ethnic divisions within a multiethnic nation.

This is the Abacha era.

a very terrible thing

madridsta007:


Fantastic news.
I hope after this Buhari will officially jettison “democracy” so that Nigerians will fully put on a despotic mindset.

Nigeria must suffer and die for their foolishness

from north to south to east to west

You guys are ALL STUPID

supporting bad things because of short term thinking and tribalism

Suffer never start

Gerrard59:
Mr Tayo's post suites business people who need to reinvest their profits into the business moving forward than salaried people. As someone whose parents bought quite a number of properties (of which some are emotional properties), I understand Tayo's point. Moreover, real estate unlike some persons say depreciates in the face of poor infrastructure, rising crime, rising sea levels and general poverty. Also, real estate is very illiquid - one cannot just wake up tomorrow to sell his/her properties at the same price they were purchased. It takes time to appreciate and even more time to find buyers. Worse still, inflation/devaluation eats up whatever gains it might have accured.

Tayo never said "don't build a house". He simply said don't build a house when you can reinvest the money into more profitable ventures. It's also true that the house one owns and resides in is not an investment, never! It doesn't generate revenue rather it requires maintenance which requires money. It's more profitable to buy and lease out than buy to reside.

Funny enough, people stress their lives by building houses in places like Ota, Agbara, Okokomiako yet work in VI, Lekki and Ikoyi. This is suicidal! Better to rent in Ajah, Yaba and invest in a business then later utilise the profits at a stage to purchase a property in those areas. When one even factors in the life expectancy rate in Nigeria, renting is better than outright purchase. The reason most do the latter like Tayo stated is because of their children and societal expectations. Unfortunately, some of these properties are sited in "emotional locations".

Lastly, knowledge of basic economics, mathematics and accounting is essential for every individual in his/her quotidian activities.

Well said nwanne

Rizan3349:
I weep for my country .who so ever speaks against US in this issue must have been demented.. US is trying to use visa sanction to call your heartless politicians to order, ensure the elections reflect the interest of the masses and most importantly protecting the innocent citizens for unnecesary death.

no mind them

those yabbing US for this lack sense

Sunnymatey:
Fayemi almost ran mad when his visa application was denied some days back. This is to tell you how they fancy going to America.

You don't mean it

Danwakae:



The USA doesn't play with lost of lives....if you feel it's a threat from the USA, please move to Bayelsa today for tomorrow's election...some of u ,I don't know what is wrong with u people...Timipre Silver is sending thugs to kill innocent people and PDP members in Bayelsa East his strong hold also, Dickson and Diri are sending thugs to kill innocent people and APC members in both Bayelsa West and Central , whereas their sons and daughters are in the US flexing watching and u think if the US decides to send chase out their family members and ban all from the US is a threat ??...You don't know what u are saying not until your innocent families would be among the casualties....it's so bad...election is now do or die... Baba Buhari should just sign the electoral law so the the power will go back to the people and all these nonsense will stop and also politicians will work for their people rather than using violent to get re-eleccted.

the guy you quoted is an APC rat
what do you expect

seniormallam:
Only business men will understand this man, if you are a civil servant pls wetin concern you with #40m talk?,
Goto ikoyi , central area in abuja and see locked duplexes, if not that the owners are politicians that will go back to our treasury and steal more money,
Locking of 150m house for 5years without living in it or renting it out is what?
Which private businessman will do that?
Go and tell Shina peller or Akin Alabi to buy house in abuja because of their 4years tenure election they won.

exactly

drlaykay:
I tell people this a lot and they actually think I'm saying nonsense.
Build your house after you have solidified your business.
This is why an uneducated yoruba man doesn't do well as much as an uneducated igbo man.
Most people get to see little money from their business and rush to get a land. The business isn't solid enough yet but instead of reinvesting the profit in order to improve the business they go buy a lands.
Every little profit from the business which is still of a low scale, will be used in financing the building. Because the profit is low, they end up spending part of their capital in addition to the profit in order to fast track the building which is overdue.this act make the business die and they become poor landlords
On the other hand, their igbo counterpart who are also into small scale business, reinvest such funds into the business.
The business grows and they build a more powerful structure in a decent location within a short time.


Before your crucify me, I have live examples and I am proudly yoruba

thank you o

dake40:

African mentality

which leads them to poverty

dake40:


Read the post again. And this time, be more careful...


Don’t buy a house unless:

1. Mortgage is < 8%,

2. You can pay cash,

3. You plan to live in it for 10 years,

At a grown age, you know the time has come to have your property (though still optional), and during this time, you would have have enough to buy a home (with latest design)

The issue with Africans is LANDLORD mentality which is very wrong... For young hustlers, dont build/buy a house you know you wont live in for years when you can rent 1 and reinvest the remaining funds in good investments..

thank you very much

there are still sensible people on NL

Nigger Africans will not open their mind to learn
that is why poverty will not depart their midst
.that cultural attachment to property is just

einsteine:
Nigerians will always argue against this and it is a reason for increasing poverty among them.

You will see someone take a loan from a cooperative to go and build one decrepit house in ikorodu just to be called a landlord. The fellow would now be traveling daily to VI for work at a great inconvenience. People have tied so much of their wealth in real estate when they could have used the money to invest while leaving in a much more comfortable area at a rent that would be less than 5 percent of the value of the house.

People need to understand that utility is more important than ownership.

They lack exposure
that is just the problem

charliboy654:
This guy na mumu o, so the house you rent, is it some someone else house.

You hav no knowledge of finance
so I will forgive your ignorance




A renter with good cash flow is FAR BETTER than a homeowner with a redundant cash flow (wherw many nigger Nigerians fall btw)

Cash flow is king.
.Using most of your cash and income to build you a house that will generate zero income to you is STUPID!


Some people build six unit apartments
live in one and rent the other 5

that is smart

but doing the other is STUPID

SEGLIZ:

what has apc got to do in this whole? a well driven economy is credited to private sector and investors that are sincere. a well driven society is credited to good government and politicians.
the socioeconomy might be poor but still we have some society with bad governance good economy.
apc isn't the one deducting 4 Naira from our back account every weekend it is still the business men and investors.
this is not exonerating the government of its flaws.

I see your logic

Pataricatering:
Abegi! We are fraudulent people - our boys are doing yahoo and yahoo and nobody gives a damn - we have accepted it as normal - men don’t want to talk about it they would rather condemn women as oloshos and prostitutes - misplaced priorities .

yahoo and oloshoism is now seem aa normal
.And its a big shame

Oga West Africa is easier. You can obtain passport from Benin Republic, Togo, even Sierra Leone or Gambia or Liberia within 1 year if you are ready to pay.

People are using the passport for visa lottery since they banned Nigerians.

greenguy:
What a pity. I think we're almost getting there, the point where things become so bad everywhere and we begin to hold our leaders accountable; only then can we start making progress.

Nigeria, a country where hope dwindles for the ordinary man everyday regardless of how hard you struggle to better your own life, you're only met with frustration.

Just keep pushing bros, you'll get a job. I wish you all the best.

yes

if things spoil beyond repair

just maybe there will be a revolt against the govt

I don’t like her cuz of her lousy comment she made wen she got into Nigeria..”1st time in Nigeria my luggage and I are safe” with her skeleton strong body.... Mstheeeew Rada Rada

nothing wrong with the comment if you ask me

guiddoti:
Do you have one?

Let me tell you a bit of my idea.

During my masters program in the UK, the least amount I make is 350 per week without overtime. So, you can do the calculation for one month. I pay 270 per month for rent with utility inclusive. As for transportation, I pay 38 per month (bus pass) to anywhere within the city. Mind you, food is very cheap. Even if you are gluttony, you should not spend over 150-200 on food for one month. Remember, this is just least job for non professionals. Now, coming home, which menial job can make you live average life, that is obtainable, as equate to non professional job here? Maybe you have different experience as myself or an idea, am waiting.

yea true
