I knew it would be too complicated for you to understand.

@me
Complicated? Maybe I was not taught your brand of English language when I wrote British professional exams and trained under Nigerians that were almost like English.

@webm

You’re not worried that your president is a known drug lord who has files with the FBI? It seems you’re not just related to by tribe but by crime.

@me
Get it right. USA is not Nigeria where there is no information. Anyone (and I repeat anyone) that has SSN has records with FBI. If you have lived in USA legally you must have SSN. That's why they can run checks on anyone.

So many uniformed people on the internet.

Na op do the job jor. Congratulations 👏 and welcome to fatherhood.

@sheeda995
You are part of the problem in our Nigerian education. Semi illiterate,although everyone for that country na semi illiterate. Elementary is 1 out of 200million sheep, maybe he's exceptional, that's right but the point is success shouldn't be determined by exceptionality because science has taught us we have very few ones. Go to Europe,America some of the rich were dumb one's. The society should be able to make everyone thrive irrespective of what they do or have chosen to do.


@me
I can't make sense out of what you wrote.

@federal9
Some of us don't know how damaged Nigeria is.

I wanted to apply for an international job worldwide, all countries were listed except Nigeria.

I tried another one, no Nigeria. I got an info from a friend that they don't employ Nigerians for that type of Job because of what they read about us on Facebook, social Media and all that.

It's just so saddening.

@me
Are we not the ones posting them for the world to read. Other nations will hide their internal problems but we will carry it and show to the world.

Have you heard or read other nations that carried their internal politics to another country and made every effort to rubbish all institutions in their country?

Asians are the highest immigrants but the little we have done we post it everyday that our country is not liveable and everyone is running away. Of course the embassies will put extra screening.

Are Nigerians listening? Did you hear pim from the opposition? National interest overrides party and personal interest. If it's in Nigeria food for don done for opposition.

They would have shouted and reported to USA, UN and demonstrated all over the world how freedom of speech has been murdered.

Some might have gone to court to talk about fundamental human rights. The natives and/or religion of the minister would have claimed marginalisation.

Bottom line: we copy but we copy wrongly.

@sheeda995

Lol
Where is the opportunity in Nija.


@me
My laundryman is a graduate. He uses very powerful car. He's married with a child. The wife is pregnant now. She attends a school of nursing paid by him. I didn't know that he is also a tailor. Later I got to know.

He's so busy that he works now for select clients. Reason: each time he hires assistants, their quality is always poor and they complain of the pay. They will rather go and drive Keke on hire purchase.

Almost all his younger ones he has been the one sponsoring them.

Since 2016 he has been my laundryman and tailor - all dresses - suit, senator, native etc. I have been very afraid to try a new person.

The major reasons for japa is that most of our people are not good at what they do and they are not ready to grow gradually. They are on the internet abusing the government, complaining and following the dollar rate as of life depends on it.

My laundryman, Ekene is a graduate of accountancy but he has never worked for any paid employment.

Some of these thoughts are good. He had the chance to bring them into our system but he took care of his personal interest.

He had the opportunity of practicing some of these things in all the parties that he had been, why did he not?

Why is it that only those that speak negatively against the current system are the ones that he loves. The journalist in exile, retired supreme court judge and simple advice from Jega.

On the personality of the person that has been his friend and associate for years, why were you a close friend for years of a person that you believe that has question mark in his character and you want me to believe you now?

I'm not a lawyer but if were president BAT I will drag atiku out and slam heavy charges against him in the area of forgery and identity theft. The civil case has ended at the supreme court let him start the criminal case and let atiku prove beyond reasonable doubt what he is claiming.

I will not listen to a sermon on morality preached by atiku because I will be seeing the face of a criminal preaching.

Direct answer: I'm a pastor and I pay tithe. I even pay tithe on gifts. My wife pays her tithe and my children pay their tithe on their income.

Tithe is a faith issue. If you believe it, it will work for you. Case closed.

Joe Ajaero and NLC should take it easy. His gara gara and threats are getting too much. At the least excuse he threatens with strike. He decides who on government side should or shouldn't attend meetings.

For an economy that is down like our own strikes will damage it more and workers will suffer it. Therefore strikes should be last resort.

The truth is that the world economy is down. Beginning from the effects of COVID to Ukrainian war. Only moderate economic growth is being recorded in developed economies.

@Racoon

Tinubu is obviously Reno Omokri president but not my president as long as the shenanigans of this brazen criminality of the 2023 election is concerned.

@me
May you never gain anything good through out the 8 years of Tinubu's reign. Amen

Nobi to buy car be problem na to fuel and maintain it. Me I dey measure my fuel ⛽ like how my wife they put salt for soup.

@Dottore
[b]When will it come back at least the way it was before May 29 this year.

@me
Forget the pre 29th May rates. They were artificial rates. They were not realistic rates. The fundamentals didn't support that rate.

Present rates too are equally not realistic. They are speculative rates. The true rate of naira is within the band of 550 - 750.

@BadCuntry

No matter how much the Naira appreciates against the dollar... one thing is sure: before Christmas the Naira will trade above 1300 against the $$$.


@me
Nay. Except for speculation and other extraneous factors exchange rate usually go down during the end of the year because of increase in inflow.

@Alvin212

Tinubuu is bastard

Old Druggie.


@me
Be careful before they sue you to court and slam charges against you. The case has been decided. What you are committing in law is called tort of defamation.

One person will be used as example. You wey no get shishi. Find another thing to rant. This stanza is over.

You get?

@8stargeneral

And what do you think they should have done?


@me
Read one of the judges lecture on what they ought to have done to make the CSU deposition valid in law. That's enough for those SANs to over their faces in shame.

Jona my man. Life nobi do or die. The man dey his dey my people dey use how they treat him they fight.

Oh Obi and his nzogbu nzogbu mob has elongated our chances of ruling this nation. We have created so many political enemies.

Anyway sha we go dey manage appointments.

@8stargeneral
Even if they display heaven and earth professionalism Nigerian court will still say it lack merit

I fear who no fear Nigeria court

It only favour the highest bidder's.


@me
If there was utmost display of professionalism and there happened to be miscarriage of justice it will be very glaring to discerning persons. In this case the submissions were just hollow on points of law. One of the judges was just teaching them what they should have done.

@garriAndsugar

Moves to, will, soon propaganda words we have been hearing since just like that the ghost foreign investors.

Instead of talk why not work let's see the difference.


@me
Think positive. In economics news is very important. Whether positive or negative. You what to hear the negative and blow it up. Meanwhile its effect affects you.

@iwaeda

Enjoy APC vision, hope you travelled round Nigeria and see how good roads are.


@me
You are indirectly supporting what I'm saying. With the mega dollars made PDP didn't invest in infrastructure. That's what we are suffering today

@iwaeda

I have never worked for ANY govt.[/b]


@me
It's not about working for government. Every Nigerian enjoyed subsidized exchange rate, subsidized petroleum products, life without direct tax back then.

The PDP lacked vision and courage to take tough and difficult decisions that would have positioned our economy very well.

Now our false lifestyle has caught up with us. Tomorrow could be worse if we don't take that difficult and painful decision today.

@iwaeda

Blame PDP for all their errors, life was easier then; with my 200k jobs then, I could buy a good car without stress; travel to Europe, USA and so on. Laid a good foundation for myself with the help of God, but under APC ,businesses are shutting down with lack of vision and renewed hopelessness. .


@me
The easy money that came then was what PDP would have used to lay the foundation for the greatness of this nation. The pains of today would have been avoided. Rather they squandered it and gave you and I peanut. We rejoiced but never knew that we have eaten our today yesterday

Don't fall for this. UK university and scholarship? What they do most is mere tuition discount and alumni part scholarship.

This is a sponsored post.

@Bobloco
No mention of the opposition to join hands with him


But he claims to be a democrat

Tinubu should at least be magnanimous in victory.


@me
Which magnanimous in victory? He extended it immediately the results were released but they rejected it like leprosy. They then went on the mission of if we can't win we must pull him down.

All manner of tools were used both nationally and internationally. In fact never in the history of Nigeria have this level of post election rancour happened.

@victorclean
See civility of the highest order. Heroin addict presidents with limited knowledge are you learning?


@me
Civility for where? Was he doing it before now? You my people over hype this man. He's just clinging to anything to remain relevant.

@Emmexguy123
Why so fast?
Is there something they are not telling us?

The Nigerian judiciary is fast becoming the nightmare of the man.


@me
The problem with the ordinary people is that because of social media the interpretation of law has become for Tom Dick and Harry.

You accused me of forgery. You went somewhere to obtain documents and say that I forged. You want to give same document to a judge and force him to declare me a criminal.

You forget that there's a process of declaring someone a criminal. You must prove it beyond reasonable doubt before the judge. This has a legal process. Because the public is ignorant they cheer on. Judges are called names and ridiculed.

Atiku and Obi knew from the beginning that they can't prove their case. But because if they keep quiet they will loose their supporters they have to go through this process and back it up with heavy propaganda.

What is their aim?
1) retain their supporters' sentiment.
2) embarrass the BAT.
3) ridicule the judiciary.

What they lost
1) discerning persons feel that they are overdoing it.
2) ridiculing Nigeria internationally at our brand of politics.
3) most judges are silently upset with them. The law has no sentiment but judges do have because they are human. Will they come to the same judges in future to seek judgment? I don't think that they are thinking this way.

@43Ronin
ah ah, so early I think by now everyone knows the outcome. Hoping for a better Nigeria without revolution is a pipe dream.


@me
This appeal is empty. Nothing in it. Atiku is aware and obi is aware. That's why they are using social media to wip up sentiment.

@MrColdsweat

The vultures are coming to attack him for saying the truth.


@me
The game has shifted. From tinubu is not fit to he can't win. To on Biafra we stand. To referendum. To stolen manhood. To certificate forger. To we hate and we don't want him. Now to looking for appointment from the same person that you bitterly hate.

Are you serious?

@Adolfnigeria
Outlaw transactions in the black market. *

Please what is this ?

Few Nigerians get forex via the banks. The only way to get dollars is from BDC or so called black market.

Government of propaganda. The parrallel/black market is the only way for most Nigerians to get dollar. This is the market that shows the true naira value.

The CBN quote is propaganda. I believe they only use this window to scam foreign investors or unsuspecting victims, from their dollars.




@me
So long as the black market remains, the arbitragers will ensure that the rates widen. Buy more to create artificial scarcity so that the rates will keep increasing consequently increasing the value of their store of value.

It's similar to when a company is about to issue an IPO. The major shareholders will mop up the shares on the exchange to drive up the price. So long as they keep buying the price will keep going up not that it reflects the fundamentals of the company.

Honestly Obi has bad advisers. Since the results of the election were released every step that he has undertaken has been demarketing him.

How can he be writing things like this when he has an ongoing case in the court? The same court gave him justice that made him governor. Now the judiciary is bad because they failed to wrongly interpret the law to favour him.

Does he expect to go to the same courts anytime in his life to seek for justice? It has never happened in the life of this nation that the judiciary has been so insulted and bullied.
