From this moment, DailyTrust has ceased to be one of the papers I will be considering for serious news. No credibility of any sort. Shameless!

No sane human being will believe any Nigerian government official when it comes to soliciting for loan or begging for funds anywhere in the whole world.

Remember how Rotimi Amaechi became so embittered because the Bukola Saraki led HOA criticised the Chinese government's terms and conditions of the loan he was pursuing with them.

Imagine Nigeria government conjuring fake figures on daily basis during COVID so as to beg for palliatives and funds worldwide.

Remember how Elon Musk shades Nigeria officials begging for ventilators to cure non-existing COVID-19 in the country.


Only an uninformed zombie will trust Oliver Twist when it comes begging.

I consider this as a face-saving rebuttal.

Why did Nigeria government under Goodluck Jonathan refused to sign the agreement initially?

Why did 35 other countries from different continents refused to sign the agreement?

Why was the signing of the agreement was shrouded in secrecy until we got to know about it through a newspaper publication after it had been signed, sealed and delivered?

If you have nothing to hide, give your people access to the original and unedited copy of the agreement you signed on behalf of Nigerians, then, we will take you for the integrity of your words and your actions.

Thank you 🙏

I already had all round experience of airport routing and everything that has to do with both local and international air travel before I had the opportunity of travelling for the first time.

I already had contacts of different people at different department in the airport and friends that works with different airlines. I also have first hand information on almost all the popular international airports and different terminals with specific instructions at almost all the entry points.

Of course! I use to work with a travel company and I was very active in the business. So, flying for the first time was just as normal as travelling on a bus. The most fascinating thing for me was flying over Jeddah in Saudi Arabia. It was a beautiful scenery from the air. The most traumatic aspect of the journey was coming back into the country. I was ashamed of this country with ugly view below us while preparing for the landing.

Least I forget. I took 2 fine blankets, 8 bottles of small wines (2 each from the total of 4 different aircraft that made the journey). I also had some earpiece with me at the end of the journey.....

I was also changing my seats at will. I travel in the company of some of my friends. It was fun all through.

One was named Eunoiaa 😭😭

Why not Tredeau? or monkeys were not found in the Canadian jungle anymore?
Why not Macron, Bidden, Sunak, and many other good people from different countries of the world to preserve their heritage in their zoo?

You preserved Nigerian names by given them to apes..... !

Bewildered!

Ngozi.... Okonjo Iweala?
Aremu..... Olusegun Obasanjo
Nneka...... Ogwumike (American female basketballer of Nigerian descent)

Why does the names of the gorillas represent only the names of the notable people from Nigeria

Very soon Shettima, Ahmed, Obi, Abubakar etc will join the list.

Our head is definitely not correct in this country I swear!

The love of money is...

Your comment makes me to start thinking somehow...

1. If the concept of money is perfectly introduced to some animals in their own environment, would it change their known behavioural pattern?

2. Some animals are so socially inclined and well organised with hierarchy, order and norms. Would concept of money affect them positively or negatively?

The love of money is truly the root of all evil. These saying is not limited to humans alone.

Monkeys are capable of doing anything humans can do (in their own ways) if given the same platform.

They have good interpersonal communication skills and research have shown that, the eyes of some speeches of monkey can identify more colours than humans with multidimensional views.

Naturally, weakest among these creatures are 5 times agile than man with clearcut accuracy in executing tasks.

Monkeys are wonderful creatures.

A research that taught monkey how to use money had to end because some monkeys started using their money to carry Olóṣó (prostitutes).

So, in 2005, economist Ken Chen and Psychologist Laurie Santos, both of Yale University, taught capuchin monkeys the concept of money. It took them several months. They gave each of these monkeys 12 silver discs with holes in them. Then, they introduced different foods such as Jell-O cubes, grapes and apple to them at different prices.

They were tested with price drop and price rise. When the foods were of similar prices, the monkeys went for the sweetest (apple). Later the price of Jell-O was dropped and that of apple increased. The monkeys would buy apple even at an expensive rate when they have money. But when they're "low on cash," they go for Jell-O so that they can get many at a little price. Monkeys dey budget...nice one!

They were exposed to different other concepts such as gambling and so on. Soon, some of the monkeys started stealing money belonging to others but that wasn't the craziest.

Chen noticed one day that some male monkeys were giving their silver disks to the female for mating. The female would in turn exchange the "money" for good food (apple).

They had to quickly pull the plug on this project because they don't want monkeys to learn this and get used to it. If this happens, it might disrupt the way mating normally occurs between them in nature.

I'm just a music lover with a varied taste that includes "Water no get enemy of Fela", Take A Message to Mary by the Everly brothers of the 60's, Mama Mia of the Abba's in the 70's, Daddy Cool of the Boney M of the 70's and Barnabas of Kiss Daniel of this era..Lol

Dilemma of Nelly ft Kelly Rowland brought Kelly to the front stage after being overshadowed by Beyonce all through her carrier days at Destiny's Child. The airwaves were heavy. Nelly was already an A list established rapper often ranked as the best those days.

You captured the old days beautifully to the admiration of everyone.

Thanks for bringing back those beautiful memories.

DoctorAyukebot:
The will never be an era like the 90's and early 2000's in R&B and music in general. Back to back hits were the norm with strategic rhymes and beats to match..It was a magical moment in Western urban music..

In addition to your list,

Craig David's album Born to do it, smashing tracks like I am walking away,Seven Days, Fill Me in was a hit of it's own class amongst Africans

50 Cent, In Da Club took Hip hop to a different level

Beyonce after a successful pompous carrier as the head of the Destiny's Child paired up with Jay Z to bring to air Bonny and Clyde and a host of other hits

Shaggy's wasn't me brought other Jamaicans that forever defined dancehall with greats like Kevin Little, Wayne Wonder, Rupee, and Sean Paul etc..

Rihanna's master stroke Umbrella ft Jay Z, brought another star to behold..

R.Kelly after a successful 90's carried the momentum to the 2000's with his critical acclaim TP2.com album of salacious hits. Fiesta Remix was the bomb. Ignition, Chocolate factory, Trapped in the closet, You saved me, Happy People..

If you grew up as an African teenager and didn't know Joe Thomas then you weren't on planet earth

Akon brought his own style in the mid half of the 2000's featuring with almost every A list artist

Sisqo after a successful career with the group Dru Hill unleashed the dragon in 2000 with a tinted hair and style to match

Timbaland, Timberlake, Missy Elliot, Katy Perry, Nelly Furtado, Black Eyed Peas...It's a never ending list of good music..We should talk about the 90's sometime so greats like Keith Sweat can be celebrated too..

You must be that crazy DJ that unforgettable night... Jamz althrough.

Nelly ft Kelly Rowland.... 🔊Dilemma🔊 will continue to live on rent free on our minds.... FOREVERMORE

No business man would like rate increase but to an economist,it makes sense...... Nigerian companies are one of the most inefficiently run in the world due majorly to bad corporate governance.....you are trying to curb inflation and you want to flood the economy with excess liquidity .....I still don't understand how that makes any sense to you.

Practical experience in direct business dealings is crucial and supercedes any economic policies in Nigeria.

I got a business loan @28% per annum. Just about the time that the loan was disbursed, there was industrial crises and scarcity of raw materials for months, which negatively impacted the costs, then a national crises.

We couldn't start production until the loan because useless yet the bank interest rate keeps going on.

No business can survive harsh business environment. Nigeria business environment is too toxic with serious instability. Your business projections will always suffer a fatal defeat with these kinds of unstable policies.

Odotech:
thank you. This your analysis is the pure truth. Only someone who has developed ability to think deep will see it from your perspective. CBN governor is only applying economics books principles memorized in school and he is unable to think for himself. Unfortunately, the school books written by whites were written at a time when terrorists were not killing farmers hence they didn't capture the Nigerian scenario where inflation is due to insecurity of lives of farmers, manufacturers of food

I think they know the truth about the economy and the right solution per time, but they are under strict obligation to dance to the tune IMF, World Bank and other lenders whom they have signed a memorandum of understanding with at one time or the other.

Lithiumite:
How many jobs did you create when interest rates were lower......everyone who studied basic economics knows one of the ways to curb inflation is raising interest rates.....rates on savings would also go up thereby encouraging people to save or invest in securities,this would also lead to reducing liquidity which is a major check on inflation.

People borrow money to import dispensable things like toothpicks and toilet rolls which needs to be discouraged.....there are still industry specific special intervention loans that are less than 20% such as agric loans and grants

Nigerian economic system does not support this kind of analogy. Local companies and multi-nationals are folding up in quick succession, without any strategic intervention from the government or plan to protect the manufacturing industry from total collapse.

Isn't it an awkward policy from the CBN? The manufacturing sector is gradually dying because of high costs of production and low market sales due to dwindling purchasing power of the masses and the only solution from the CBN is to increase the interest rate on business loan.

No serious and well informed business owner can guarantee 30% profit on investment with the current state of the economy in Nigeria.

By the time you calculate the cost of diesel, power, salaries, V/T, state government tax, ground rents and other overhead costs, you would consider laying of workers and shut down your production plant to retain your sanity.

I decided to ignore the cost of raw materials, important tax, logistics and other variables in my comments for a reason

The Nigerian banking industry system and the government tax system were meant to kill the manufacturing sector.

SOS.....

Somebody should please help me with information on Canada study visa fee payments platform.

I paid someone to help me complete a study visa application. All information has been successfully uploaded and his task is to pay with his dollar card. He has been telling me that the server has been down since a week now.

Could someone help me with recent information on the payment platform?

Is anyone else experiencing this delay in payment?

Somebody should please come to my rescue. This is very urgent.

Thanks 👍

May we never suffer for what we know nothing about.

The guy committed the crime, he deserves the initial death sentence passed on him. His lawyer never argued that he was wrongfully sentenced but, that his CTC was not duly signed by the appropriate authority as at that time.

Learn to read before you make comments.

There's no peace for the wicked.

May he survive. Quick healing sir.

But we need to know the people that actually shot him.




I don't want to bring your Ogun State and it's horrible news to this thread

I pray he survives the gunshot and come out of it whole and complete.....

The only tragedy and fear of everyone is that, even if he survived this, hope the Biafran sit-at-home agent of darkness would not kill him on Monday morning when he's returning from the hospital...........

Crossbelt:
This is happening to my very closed frnd for some months now he has not been feeding well due to the situation of the country coupled with he just lost his job.
His g/f visited last 2days ago and he was very very disapointed.

Please stop insulting our sensibility as people.

harjay1986:
It not about security, the face detector is only checking the angle modification of facial look if it match then it open, on the PIN issue kids of this days learn very fast, my 8 years old son learned my six digit Pin, without me showing him, that means he sneak behind me while am open it, just a glance they will capture anything, thats why you need to be careful when they are with you

But this explanation does not justify using the 2 middle fingers to open a locked phone. That's what baffles me in all of these.

If it were to be his thumb I won't bother replying your mention.

Azazyel:
Not possible! Every human has a unique fingerprint.

That's what they made us believe... Maybe there are exceptions 🤔

robinso01:
It happens, even with face lock. The only sure lock is pin or pattern.

The same is happening here. My son's fingerprint opens her mum's phone and also the face lock. I think those phones pins and locks are not as secured as we are made to belief.

My wife linked her right thumbprint to the phone but my son will open it with his 2 middle fingers combined. The boy accidentally discovered it and alerted everyone at the moment.

My wife uses Redmi Note....

We got the message clearly sir....

Saraki is FIT TO RUN

Politics is always a game of interest.

He backed down in his anti-people's tax proposals, not because the people rebel against it, but because they advised him that, that protest is likely to end his government.

That useless guy was going to commit genocide if not for the advice.

David Adeleke is such a pride to his father. The guy is independent minded. He became rich and influencial not because his dad was rich but because he believes in himself.

Congratulations and happy married life.

They didn't deem it fit to appeal to Nigerians before they transmitted and approved the bill to purchase two brand new private jets for themselves.

This is being extremely insensitive to plight of the people.

shiwex:
You will never get it.

Simply because this kind of criticism makes no sense at all.

Medipharm:
Everything about this government is just insensitivity to the plight of the people

How's borrowing your friends vehicle for an occasion is insensitive to the plight of the people?

I still don't get it.
