So it is Buhari that makes us to have no money? Let me ask you, was madam Ngozi not telling us all that they were borrowing to pay salaries?

What did GEJ do with so much oil money?

Was it Jonathan that made us not to have money?
When Madam Ngozi told us we were paying to pay salaries what did you saints say

Buhari has performed 10times worse than Buhari and you're here making excuses for him.

If buhari fulfilled 1/4 of his promises like building a refinery each year, will NNPC be paying billions monthly as fuel subsidy?

Why won't they halt the projects when there's barely enough money to service our dangerously high debts, pay labour new minimum wage, pay fuel subsidy and service their kleptomaniac desires.

If Jonathan said there will be no new projects in a whole new year, APC will scream at the top of their voices but now they want us to clap for them for trying to be clever by half.

Is that why her girl is barely inside her dress?

And the porn continues

Op you have just killed your village deity

A god that is killable should be killed

@holywizard congrats, you just broke your ancestral covenant. Watch your life from now. Make sure you eat it.

That snake is the most common symbol of riverine deities. Not killing / eating it when you meet it is a covenant renewal.
Riverine deities are big thieves and destiny killers. Congrats once again

Guideline line kor, procedure line ni.

All of you in that outfit are waiting for a guideline to release details of a form?
How about uploading a scanned copy of the form? Is there supposed to be a guideline sef? Is that what FOI means?

They know that we know that they are telling a white lie. They don't want anyone to know the contents of the form shikena. This is buhari's 5th year in office and the guideline is still missing.
While that of the ex cjn was readily available

Well, welcome to Nigeria

The ladies that will marry a guy earning 30k are not on nairaland. My friend once employed a guy part time(14days a month, 6hrs a day) and she was paying 15k. When she learnt he was married with 2 kids and didn't have any other job, she had to increase it to 20k and later to 24k. As he started earning 24k, see as the guy begin shine, adding weight, changing clothes etc. We later asked him how he was doing the magic, o boy, see economics masters. Too bad he had to be sacked when business couldn't stand against the harsh economy. Surprisingly, he had saved enough in his local meeting to collect a loan and buy an okada.
I throway salute

I have 3 plots if land at Sabon Lugbe in Lugbe and I wish to sell them asap.
Tittle: CofO.
I can sell individually or together.
Price : 6m
Send a DM if you're interested

I need an open plan hall to rent around gbagada/bariga to rent.
Minimum 70sqm size. Parking space is a bonus.
Budget: 800k - 1m. It's urgent.

Dumping Osinbajo equals dumping Tinubu. That may be the final catalyst Nigeria needs to separate. They are trying to soil his name as much as possible and discredit all possible contenders so during 2022, he would be in jail or quarter to jail.

There's no smoke without fire, the North is overpressing it's luck by thinking of El-Rufai succeeding Buhari.

I prefer BAT as president anyday to El-rufai. I attended one of his lectures back then when he was still campaigning for Governorship. All he said was how Jonathan was daft and slow and how SS/SE feel entitled because the oil is in their territory and their attitude is the reason Nigeria is backward. He sounded so educated though but to think he's the one demolishing churches and poking his short fingers into the eyes of Nigeria's unity is a true definition of hypocrisy.

Under APC, my biz collapsed and I have to pick my life afresh due to their nepotistic policy.

But El-rufai specifically said that Buhari was there to ensure a corruption free environment while Prof Osinbajo would be given free reins to steer Nigeria's economy to greater heights. All were lies, the same Osinbajo they are bullying out of Aso Villa.

If you feel Buhari is tribalistic/nepotistic, wait for El-rufai. Tinubu would be a better option but they are already ganging against him. Troubled days ahead.

She decides not to.

And she has her reasons.

Maybe she will publish some day and just maybe your perspective will change.

Story doesnt add up. Its filled with solicitation for sympathy.

I challenge her to publish her Appointment letter.

Because she is Otedola jnr's wife
Is she God that decides to change contracts midway and nobody can do anything about it?

The lady in question is still being considerate.

If I were her, first thing I will do is to lodge in the police station that if anything happens to me and kids within the next 6months, hold Jola abi Jolu or whatever responsible.

Secondly, I'll go for blood, I have nothing to lose, she has family respect to lose. I won't even call her out, I'll go straight to her family members and SM influencers with my appointment letters, sworn affidavit and all proof I can muster (emails, call logs, sms etc) Let them be the ones to pay me off or call her to order. I won't demand only salary o, I will add severence bonus and trauma fees at at least 50%.

Some people need to know that no be only them sabi craze. Igbale ni oko were

Her toil brought no results sir.

Be objective.

Did she deliver on her goals?

Pay her off. Simple

People on the lower rungs of the ladder should learn not to be crying fowl.

Travelling from Alagbole to V.I was not part of the job description.

She took a job for which she had no training or expertise for.

13 followers in 3 weeks! Haba.

Be honest, that page has some good content. I'm sure she was multitasking in that office not only social media handling.
Lastly, she said many people unfollowed the page

This is a very straightforward something, she was employed, a salary was agreed on. Within 3weeks, the company feels she's not good enough.

It's the fault of the employer for not screening her well enough. Divide the agreed 1month salary into 4, multiply it by 3, that's her 3weeks salary. Etiquette demand at least 20% of the salary as pay off too sha.

It's a simple sturvs. I'm sure the money in question isn't up to a tenth of the cost of the boss's handbag.

A cousin is from Awo omama and I have been told A lot about the snake there

1. You don't call it's name in the night
2. It's their ancestor / child of the njaba deity
3. It hears perfectly though it may choose to ignore you
4. It visits new born children and coils around them
5. It may decide not to show itself to you even if you stay there for months, people around will see it but before you turn, it's gone.

Some first hand stories:
My aunt's husband who is now a pastor went back to the village after giving his life to Christ, called the snakes name and drew a boundary with his cutlass round his apartment and warned that the day he catches the snake beyond that boundary, it's dead meat, till today when the snake visits other members of their extended family, it circles round the invisible boundary that man drew with its cutlass.

Meanwhile, there's a neighbouringvillage that eats the snake as a special delicacy, they share schools, markets etc, the young children from that village are very very notorious for stealing the snakes on their way back from school or wherever they meet it, the snake stays away from their boundary wella.

So the second story;
Not everyone is cool with the snake but they tolerate it due to traditions, so once the unwanted visitor comes, they usually try to take it out with a stick or whatever and sometimes, it refuses to go by dropping down each time it's picked up, so a new trick is to tell the snake that people from the neighbouring village are passing by. They said that the snake runs with unusual speed into the bush whenever it hears those people are passing which is a second proof that the snake hears perfectly.

Dont just clap empty hands for him o, give him tax waivers so that others can be encouraged to follow suit

the telecom industry is just the only example you have to offer. What about oil and gas, agriculture, textile, manufacturing etc? All in all, what goes up doesn't always come down as long as the Nigerian factor is involve.

The global oil and gas market is another example, when saudi and usa began to flood the market with excess oil the market crashed from $140 - $28. The Nigerian oil market is immune to these fluctuations due to govt subsidy.

Agric local market hasn't been given a run for its money due to the massive competition from smuggled foreign imports hence the meagre local farmers can't dictate the price, they simply flow with the imported ones.

The textile industry can't be rated because we don't grow cotton here in Nigeria in commercial scale because dirt cheap fabrics from as low as #1k for 5yards have flooded the market from the neighbouring countries. Aba is still struggling with linen production against imported linen, yeah your zippers, linen, buttons are imported

Manufacturing hmmmmmm, I'm into manufacturing and I can say categorically that 70% of all raw materials I use in my field is imported from China and the rest, we mainly do assembly here in Nigeria. Sometimes we make sales with lower than projected profits cus when we get to the market, the prices have gone up a notch or two, do we disappoint scarce clients ? No, What about the times the goods are scarce cus fresh container hasn't landed So are we manufacturing ? No, we buy parts from about 2 - 4 countries and assemble them in nigeria and claim they are made in Nigeria.

When the border closes, 180million people will be forced to solve the lacking things, naturally prices will be high but as more people enter the industry, newer cost effective techniques are implemented and competition strives, prices will crash.

Nigeria's market isn't responsive because of the foreign influence in the market, when Nigerian demand speaks, a foreign supply answers, the foreigners are not affected by Nigerian competition because if Nigeria won't buy from them, they simply look elsewhere, only demand in their country can make them adjust prices.
But if foreign supply is cut off or reduced to the barest minimum, when Nigerian demand speaks, the Nigerian supply will have to answer and it will keep getting louder until it matches and even over shadows the Nigerian demand and then, we begin to export . But first, we have to remove the foreign influence and let the Nigerian supply flex its muscles

joseph1832:
Lol. I want to believe you're aware that law doesn't apply to Nigeria.

Over apply sef, the telecoms industry is a perfect example. It will be very high in the beginning, but later, people will be begging Nigerians to buy for 8k. Then, I believe we or naira can gain value

joseph1832:
you say there isn't enough locally produce rice to go around that's why it's expensive, right. Now since there isn't enough to go around why didn't the government wait for there to be enough to go around before they close the border.

Think about it, there isn't enough local rice to go around and it's expensive, now that the border is close what do you think will happen to the little local rice that is around? The price will triple and who will bear the burden?

There are business that brings in good money that will never be flooded because the capital to start it is something else.

The federal government is making a very big mistake with this move. I hope you know the price of chicken have gone up now?

What goes up must come down as long as the borders remain closed. Bag of rice that costs 3-5k to produce per bag will become he next oil well

Because we have been given the power of choice, God can't force down his blessing on us, we have to choose to ask for it

I'm a complete southerner with roots in the 3 geopolitical zones, a PDP supporter and a strong buhari critic (I wrote his name in small letters on purpose). However, this is the best thing buhari has ever done in his life that is good and if I don't admit it out of hatred, I become a hypocrite...

The govt has been very vocal about supporting agriculture but who wants to do dirty farm work when there's KPMG and Shell oil?

-If govt increase tariff, the rice smugglers won't pay,
-If the govt destroys or seizes the foreign rice in the market, it's the local market women who will be affected cus they have paid for the goods.
-As long as there's foreign rice in the market, people (me included) will keep paying 5k extra to buy imported rice so even if we wait for 15yrs, our local rice market won't grow.
-I wish buhari will close this border till 2023 and I might consider voting Tinubu (Lol, no jokes though)
- Yes local rice will shoot up from maybe 12k to 18 or even 20k cus we Nigerians are very greedy by nature but we can be rest assured that someone in Nigeria is paying tax from that money and as long as the border is closed, the person will patronize another Nigerian who will patronize another Nigerian who will finally patronize me.
- The best part is that due to our greedy nature, many Nigerians will rush into rice production and crash the market within the next 2 - 5yrs and bag of rice will be sold for 5-8k.
- I am certain this will happen cus we are very stingy people that don't send face, even if it's our bff that's selling rice at 16k, if we see another person selling for 8 - 10k, we are ready to end that friendship or buy by proxy from the competition till our bff won't have a choice than to bring down the price to compete
-Meanwhile, at least 50k to 1m Nigerians are guaranteed jobs not just in the agric industry, it's a ripple effect.

Take the current benefit the closure of shoprite is having on our local supermarkets, it's the same thing.

madenigga:

My question is how does your point abt what we pay for daming a flowing river, come into play here

We give them electricity so that they won't dam it in their oil country before it reaches Nigeria, if they do, the mighty rivers that generate thousands of megawatts will scarcely have enough current to drown a playing child

Is that why they sometimes behave as if they are fighting with customers? Don't even dress anyhow to see customer care...

At this point, silence is no more golden. Nigeria needs to speak/act / do both. The world is watching.

amc:


You obviously don't know that forfeiture through the courts is a 2 step process - interim and final.

so how does that change the theory??

Hmmmm,

I sense a subtle game being played here:

The dss did seize jewels from diezani but it's not up to $40m. Maybe $2-5m at most but definitely not $40m. She also couldn't defend herself against the lies being peddled against her mostly because the govt will arrest her and lock her away before she can talk to any journalist. She decided to apply to collect back her jewels and dss pissed in their pants and here's why:

If she wins the jewels back, dss will have to explain why it wasn't up to $40m, in fact they will augment the remaining amount since they themselves announced that its $40m and the public will understand what games are being played. They went for blood and made sure she lost the jewels to them permanently.
That was a funny but close shave.

Don't quote me abeg, this is my opinion.

Lagos state Govt has the right to arrest anyone deemed suspicious and they owe them no explanation, we all know the state Nigeria and Jigawa state is in with its porous borders.

Fashola even deported some easterners and nobody did nada so they should take 123 seats. They should even be happy they werent deported

It's just like USA police receiving tip off of suspicious activity from locals which was confirmed to be suspicious, the police trails, arrests and detains them, after extensive profiling, they find out they weren't incriminating and released them afterwards. Should they come out and sue the cops?

Lagos should sue them for 123Billion for attempted mass murder of infants and attempted mass suicide

Some people just like to make a big deal of everything

Lol, this one has tied everybody, PDP (Yaradua) signed contract, Jonathan reached Out Of Court settlement, Buhari (APC) defaulted on the Out of Court Agreement and defaulted on the Court order (in 2017 they went back to court). Buhari also ignored reminders, now Nigeria owes $9.6b instead of $850m.

On the issue of the award being shady, Yaradua was in the best position to explain it's legality but he's late now. On the side of P&ID, how were they to know that the distinguished president Yaradua didn't consult the FEC When you sign an agreement with Queen Elizabeth concerning The U.K, do you go snooping to know who she has consulted over it or not ? The investors could be clearly caught in the middle.

On another thought, let's say The British was being compensated for ******** through that contract that's why the cancellation charge is high and why it was shadily/shaparly awarded once Yaradua was sworn in. If this is the case, Buhari/fulani has entered the black book with their British counterparts.

Whichever way it is, it will be quite interesting to watch

Lol, I tell you o, else people will see: this lady left home since Saturday morning and nobody has seen her, please share her pictures across social media bla bla bla

I had a somewhat funny and somewhat harrowing experience with the people of the underwold today. I am must definitely happy to be alive and able to share it and I hope you can learn one or two things from it.

In the early hours of today approximately 10am, I was at Gbagada bustop in front of dominos pizza waiting for a bus to Obalande. A bus without a conductor pulled up, I didn't hear the destination the driver was calling so I enquired and he instead asked me harshly "where you sef dey go?" I replied "Obalende" and he asked me to enter (1st red flag). There were about 6 passengers in the bus but he pulled out of the bustop after I entered and hit the express and asked a passenger to help close the door (2nd reg flag). This prompted me to look around the bus. There was a huge lady in the front seat beside the driver dressed like she was going to some owambe party, beside me was a young lady backing a sleeping baby who looked like she was going to the market. There was another elderly man who looked like a peasant labourer, a teenage girl and about 2 other young men dressed causally, the driver himself seemed to be a man in his early 50's. However, the sight of the young mother and the sleeping infant calmed my nerves instantly. The driver requested for the fare while sounding the usual "No change o", I paid for my fare and I could see notes in his hand like any other hustling driver. This further calmed my nerves.

After I paid for the fare, the driver began addressing the elderly passenger in what seemed to be an unfinished argument (All these happened within a minute I entered the bus). The driver was shouting that the elderly man entered the bus with a bag and he refused to tell anybody what was inside the bag or allow anyone touch the bag. He was saying that if the police should randomly search his bus and find anytbi g incriminating in that bag, the man can easily run away and leave him in soup. He was swearing that he will deal with the man by reporting him to the first police patrol team he comes across. The driver turned to other passengers that that is how evil men like him put innocent people in trouble but the table have been turned and we will all be his witness. The huge lady in front began to mediate and asked the elderly man to tell us the truth or let us search the bag. The man said he will say the truth. We all began to listen. He said he worked for a rich man for the past 6yrs at Abeokuta as a domestic staff but was never paid for one day. He got an opportunity yesterday to settle himself and he took the madam's gold jewellery and a lot of money from the boss. Everybody screamed. The driver instantly pulled over out of the express, by this time we were just under the new garage bridge heading to the 3rd mainland bridge. The driver turned and asked the elderly man how much was in the bag and the man began to visibly shake and stammer, he replied it was over a million dollars, another shout erupted from the passengers, one asked how much it was in naira, he said around 495million naira. The driver began to shout that he has been vindicated. Meanwhile immediately I heard 495million naira, I forced the door open and came down, they didn't wait and the bus moving nearly made fall, before I looked back, they were already on the bridge speeding to third mainland bridge. There was no police van aroundto report to. I checked myself, about #1,500 was missing from my pocket.

I climbed the bridge and continued my journey to Obalande, the devil is a liar , I must reach Obalende before 11am and I did

I think their plan was to lure me to their hideout with the promise of a share of 495million and only God knows what would have befallen me there.

Cc Ishilove lalasticlala seun etc

Let me not say what's on my mind

So Asaba was the real slavers bay of Game of thrones which was ruled by queen
