The country's largest white elephant is being "revived" at a colossal cost. Buhari never learns.

I'm very sure when or if the plant becomes operational , steel importation will be banned.

Now everyone should stop wasting time and just get ready to amend the constitution. Decentralize police and prisons. States and local governments should be ready to police themselves.

Pardon my ignorance.

What's bad about the federal Govt policing us ?

There's a big difference between limiting access than complete nonavailability.

I am watching the crown season three.
I just watch season four and i can confidently rate the series 10/10.

I do not care what you think about the series, but the crown is one of the best series in history based on my personal opinion.
The episode four of the season three blew me away.

The storyline of the royal family is entertaining and educative.

Most especially the story of the mother of the queens husband and Damm the Queen's daughter is a Genius.

I pray to have a daughter as "Genius and loving as her.

And it's nice seeing Colin Morgan (Merlin) again.

The British royal family is one big interesting family, now i can't wait to watch more and more of the series.

Initially i fell in love with the actress that played queen in season one and two. (Clairy fox), she was a Genius and i was laid-back in watching the season three when i heard their will be changing her for an older actress to match the story.

But after four episodes so far, i must raise my cap and give kudos to the producers for perfectly selecting the new older actress that played queen and the entire cast. They are so perfect for the role and it's like they were born for the role.

I am in love already with the season three.

This is one thing Nigerian movie owners must learn from the whites.

You don't just select an actor or an actress for a movie, because she or he is popular or your friend or because you have slept with her or him.

You pick those that can perfectly suit the role.

Sometimes when i sit with my mom and sisters or female friends to watch Africa magic. There are times i do notice that the actresses and actors where not fit for the roles they have been giving. There was a movie i was watching with my sister and i told her that the role that an actress played was supposed to be given to Mercy Johnson because she was made for that role.

Anyways if you have not seen the crown or you don't like it, then you don't know what you are missing.

I can watch from season one to three repeatedly nonstop all week and it won't bore me.

Seeing the queens speak and their composure is incredible.

Hmmn , I will watch it.

I just hope I don't regret it

Can u compare Ghanas economy to dat of Nigeria?
Comparing Nigeria to a country dat her citizens re enjoying all d basic necessities. All d workers re paid their salaries as at wen due. Unlike Nigeria where most state Governors dnt pay salaries. Abeg i no fit shout.


I can compare Ghanas economy to that Of Nigeria bro.

Nigeria gdp per capita income is $ 2 ,222 while that of Ghana is $ 2,223.

Pls state the basic necessities that Ghanians enjoy. I'm curious ?


Civil servants don't comprise most of our labor force so the point that you made about governors not paying salaries is moot.

Before they start saying that standard of living is good in this countries thats why they can pay large v.a.t. , Rwanda , Togo, Benin , Niger have vat rates of 18 percent.

Both of you are so wrong! I wish my post was on the first page. Bakassi peninsula NEVER belonged to Nigeria.

It has been settled at the ICJ with FACTS! I blame our judiciary for making the nation spend so much resources on legal fees even when they knew the truth (unless they were grossly misinformed)

All that talk about Nigeria giving Cameroun Bakassi for their support during the civil war is tantamount to "beer parlour Intel". Please stop saying this. I was fed the same BS when I was younger, but I am glad I know better today

Bakassi belongs to the rightful owners now.


Like the same beer parlour talks that Nigeria is a rich country or that the 70s was eldorado for Nigeria.
Politics / Re: Nigerians To Get 18-Hour Electricity Supply Soon – Sale Mamman, Power Minister by urahara(m): 7:06pm On Jan 12, 2020
grandstar:
This is good news. I, however, have my reservations.

Will the Discos provide power for free to customers who either shortchanged them, owe them, or steal power out rightly? The biggest debtor to the Discos apparently is the federal government, reputed to owe 300billion naira. Rather than set an example, they instead act prove otherwise.

There's also a massive difference between potential demand and effective demand..All projections about the country's power needs are meaningless if consumers can't afford or won't pay for it.

There are already rumors of Discos who refuse to purchase power from the Gencos.


If Ghanians can afford light , I see no reason why Nigerians can't.

Convert this figure to dollars you will see the Nigerian customs of has been in reality earning less since 2014 .. in 2014 Nigerians customs revenue was 978. Billion naira and when converted into 2014 dollar it comes to 5.9 billion dollars and the compare with a conversion of 2019 revenue of 1.3 trillion naira which comes to 3.6 billion dollars meaning there is a drop in value of 2.3 billion dollars which means the customs is actually earning far less ... Buhari is a total failure

They are earning less because Nigerians are importing less due to the 2014 recession.

buhari is not the cause.
