You na Yahoo boy ni?

Vision101:
Read very well the matured statement of TUC leader. They have been slighted four times by Ajaero. You can't compare leader of well trained workers and leader of jankara workers. Their thinking and approach differ.

TUC has been compromised. The leaders of TUC are on FGs payroll

Jennyclay:
It’s so glaring it was a self defense because being in a heated argument with a Nigerian man is very dangerous

They are all violent in nature, they are quick to raise their filthy hands or carry cutlass to butcher someone’s daughter

Bunch of woman butchers!!
Evil men!!

You are mad

BrodaBenad:
Are you even in Nigeria?


Which bank gives dollars?

If banks are giving why should we patronising BDC?


Even the western union trick I have been using since they have stopped giving dollars

The commercial banks have been in this dirty business with BDCs for years that is why most of them will not sell to you or legitimate buyers then. They would rather sell to BDCs where the banks and some of their owners and management have interests.

Today, commercial banks can meet your forex demands without the input of BDCs. They will do more when the BDCs are eliminated from the market because they will have no choice.

Duru009:
That man called Cardoso is totally and FULLY confused.....


What a pity

He know more than you and a lot too.

Bebigiby1:
BDC is not problem…. What the OP is proposing is foolish as banning BDC will make it worse…. it will be the final nail to Naira free fall… it will exacerbate the situation as surge in dollar scarcity make Naira trade for N5000 to $1…. OP think before you post….

I disagree with you.

You speculation will only happen if the Deposit Money Banks can't meet the legitimate demands of forex in the market.

Current CBN governor will not be the first and only governor to withdraw the licences of BDC operators.

Bebigiby1:
Banks can’t meet up with Nigeria’s forex demands this is the same hasty action that plummeted the exchange rate to where it is now…. BDC is not the problem these action of arresting will make it worse you will be the same person that will come to criticize the government for failing…

Why do you think Deposit Money Banks can't meet the legitimate forex demand in the market?

The government just need to implement some of the laws that can reduce the dollarization of the Nigerian economy.

There are several property rent/lease, property purchase and sale, ticket sale and other local transactions done in forex within Nigeria. These are illegal and often put pressure on demand for forex.

SoNature:
What is happening in Nigeria today has nothing to do with BDC operators. That was how Emefiele accused AbokiFX of everything wrong with Nigeria's FX speculation, suspended their account, and compelled the platform to stop posting exchange rates. What did that change after the nonsensical move?

Thank God I didn't expect anything from Tinubu that's why I never voted for him. In fact, in a serious government, they should talking about unbundling the NNPC to bring in experts so we can rocket our crude oil production and export. If this government was serious, they ought to be inviting local and foreign gas companies to harness our gas reserves. These are core areas we can get massive FX from.

But then, you cannot give what you don't have because Tinubu just recruited his tribesmen to hold sensitive positions in the name of Emilokan and everyone is paying the heavy price now.

Unbundling NNPC is another dimension. If Nigerian wants to increase forex from crude oil exports they can exit OPEC who regulates the quota for each member country.

Angola did same recently

DeLaRue:
There is no need to cancel all BDC licenses if they operate from designated offices and shops where the Cbn can easily monitor them.

The big problem is on-street sale of currency - this should be proscribed.

I am not aware of any other country in the world where up to 50 or more people will loiter on streets casually selling and buying currency.

That said, it is not going to be easy politically to ban mallams selling on the Street. Some of these people have been involved in the business for decades, and that is all they know. Banning them will result in massive political outcry by the North, and the whole policy will be enmeshed in accusation of tribalism.

It's like the government banning importation of certain goods imported predominantly by people from the South East. Accusation of tribalism will fill the air.

Nigeria is very complicated.

Cardoso will not be the first CBN governor to withdraw the licences of BDC operators.

It doesn't matter the people behind it, it has become a problem that can threaten the whole budget of Nigeria for 2024.

It requires urgent and drastic measures

MrCork:
I have juss been offer a job in in Kenya to help them capture missing female Lion and his angry puppies. The moiney is so good & tempting.
. I shall be travelling next week.

Tips, suggestions appreciated.
Please advise!!

"his angry puppies."

Was that an error or.....

The lioness's offsprings are cubs. Lioness is not "he" but female.

If the activities of BDC operators in Nigeria is doing significant damage to the economy and highly unsettling the FOREX market so much that EFCC had to engage BDC operators in Abuja in fisticuffs and armed confrontation.

Why is it difficult for CBN to withdraw all BDC operators licences and restrict all sale and purchase of forex to deposit money banks.

What are the implications, advantages and disadvantages of withdrawing the BDC licences of operators in Nigeria?

Does Olayemi Cardoso own or have vested interest that he is protecting in the BDC business, to the detriment of the country?

CBN needs to withdraw all BDC licences and declare transactions in forex outside the DM Banks illegal. Anyone who wants to buy or sell Forex should approach the commercial and deposit money banks.

Outlaw payments and transactions on rent/lease or sale of properties within Nigeria in forex.

Payment for air travel tickets in forex must be stopped. Any airline that can't quote their fares and receive payment in naira should leave the Nigerian market.

Payment for major commodities bulk purchase like petroleum products, within Nigeria should only be denominated in naira.

Sustain forex liquidity in all Deposit Money banks in Nigeria.

Stop payment of forex to recipients of MoneyGram, Western Union and others. The recipient must receive the equivalent in naira into bank accounts or across counter.

Ultimately CBN should reduce the level of dollarization of the Nigerian economy.

englishmart:
The CBN is currently run by incompetent people who have zero idea what the issue is, let alone the solution. Tinubu simply planted stooges with no requisite capacity to milk the country dry while they await some inexistent miracles.

That is not true

stasius:
All these rubbish story sef.

How did the woman enter the den?
Is there no precaution they normally take to avoid direct confrontation with these dangerous animals knowing that they are dangerous?

It is just like going into a brood of vipers and expect to come out unharmed and fine.
I think that woman wanted to commit suicide and the man was unfortunate to be there.

Also, I thought they usually have sedatives on standby for occasions like this. If the animal confronts a victim inadvertently it should be sedated immediately with a sedation gun.

There is a lot of negligence on the part of the Zoo management and it has cost them lives! This is Nigeria. Terrible.

Your analysis are spot on:

How did a female staff get in direct contact with the 9 year old lion?

Why did the man have to intervene without protective gears?

What is the safety procedures of approaching the lions den for any reason, especially staff?

The Zoo management have a lot of questions to answer and I think this particular zoological garden in Ife Osun state is highly unsafe.

Thabothabo101:
It's you who should be shutting up. The commenter said the right thing. Why would you be in a lion’s cage and not expect to be injured or killed? It's a wild animal, not a pet.

We're you there?

So when a lion kills a human, accidentally or deliberately due to the human error or mistake, they should not eliminate the lion?

They should excuse the lion and allow it to live?

Killing such lion is an acceptable practice every where around the world.

ValCon888:
A lion was killed for being a lion. That is what I know.

Just shut up if you can't say anything reasonable

Omoawoke:
You people too like English, it seems many of you are cowards that only flex muscles in Nigeria or online. I dey use God beg you to try this in a western country. You go know why fowl no dey piss. Empty noise makers

You are not a good listener and you just want to base your argument on false foundation.

We have told you several times that this is Nigeria, not USA Europe or other countries.

We are a people with culture, tradition, religion and personalities that don't accept such dress in public space.

You don't have to like that about us; you can complain till thy kingdom come but we remain Nigerians - that is how we are cultured, trained and wired.

Live with this information or die questioning it - we don't care.

Omoawoke:
You are so ignorant, the girl right was violated. The video is an assault on her and her privacy.
And all this english you dey speak won’t help matter, If you want don’t like your life or freedom, don’t mind your business. Keep speaking grammar

But she is the first offender: she violated, attacked and harassed the minds of people in the public space first.

The guy was building his case with the recording of the lady that he did. He needs evidence and that video is a good evidence.

We mind our business and protect our minds. That is the reason we object to such dress code.

Omoawoke:
The point is this, I agree her dressing is inappropriate, but the person not minding his business is a baboon and it’s very inappropriate to video a stranger without her permission. This is a lawless country and please stop comparing with Islamic laws that are anti-freedom. Islam and Islamic dominated countries and ideaologies will not mind to bring the world to its knees

People can't mind their business when you harassing them sexually. You attack their minds with real and visual images of yourself that can arouse them, influence children negatively and be seductive.

The mind is very important because it processes a lot for us and we need to be careful of what we take into our minds.

The guy that did the video was doing it to record the attack on people's minds. Do you watch "Cheaters" on Digital TV or online? Do they have permission to record those scenes? No! Do you know that such recording can be lodged as evidence for or against anyone under investigation or view?

If the lady would love to protect her privacy then she should respect the the minds, dignity and mentality of others in public space by dressing properly. She can still dress sexy without exposing her sensitive and amorous body parts.

Do you recognize that there is sharia law in some parts of Nigeria despite that we have a statutory laws and constitution of the federal republic of Nigeria and legislative laws? Is Nigeria a wholly Islamic country?

However, it is not about domination by Islam. It is a mode of dress that Islam, Christianity and traditionalists frown at and classify as unacceptable in Nigeria.

Omoawoke:
I don’t see Nigerians fighting to enter Iran or Iraq or Saudi.
You all wanna live in the west. Na why many boys dey enter trouble for western countries

Maybe you didn't get the point:

Respect the culture, tradition and ways of people in whatever country you find yourself otherwise, you will be in serious problem.

In Nigeria, especially the northern Nigeria, the culture and tolerance of people for such dressing is almost zero. Even in liberal parts of Nigeria, people frown at it.

https://nairametrics.com/2024/02/19/fg-and-cement-producers-agree-to-set-cement-prices-at-n7000-to-n8000/

The price of 50kg bag of cement is still ridiculous at 7,000 naira.

Imagine the factors listed as reasons for the increase. Are those good reasons for moving the price from 5k to 7k.

They have created a monopolist situation in the cement market.

stagger:
Una never see anything. Come Barbados where I was for a while and you will see until you are tired of seeing. Skimpy clothes and bikinis even inside supermarkets is just the order of the day. It was a culture shock for me.

That is Barbados, this is Nigeria

Omoawoke:
Do you love your freedom or life?

If you don’t, enter america, don’t mind your business. When girl dey pass, they look her yansh and dey shout like the way they do in Nigeria “ Aunti, na you dey carrry this kind yansh!!!! Yeh see yansh!!! Or carry video dey video am.

If you don’t end up with bullets in your body, or end up inside police cell… call me he goat

That is America, this is Nigeria. We have different culture and tradition compared to Americans and Europeans.

Please, ask that lady to dress like that on the streets in Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, China and some others.

SaLongs1:
The same you and the other hypocrites all over the place will jump over to Western countries when given the slightest opportunity but non of you choses Iran or Saudi Arabia or Syria because you know those places are hell on earth due to extremist ideology of Islam that governs such places. Let me assure you that I have no intention of leaving where I am at, despite all the attacks of Boko Haram, ISWAP, Ansaru, UGM and Marauding herdsmen that are the products of the same extremist religion being practiced by the terrorists living all over Gaza.

Ode!

Iran or Saudi Arabia is better than every African country in terms of economic situation, wealth, standard of living, industrialization and other factors.

The only challenge is their tolerance for other religion but Islam and communication. That is the only reason I will not be relocating to those countries. If I am Muslim, I will gladly relocate, work and live there.

Is there more hell on earth than the condition that Israelites are subjecting Palestinians to in Gaza strip and In Israel.

See the terrorist (Israelis and You) accusing others of terrorism.

Western countries can accommodate me if I am permitted and wish to live and work in those countries. I am not a terrorist or with any history of terrorism like the Israelites and perhaps you.

talk2hb1:
How she choose to dress does not concern anybody, what concern everybody is that there are kids of other people around, which we won't want their kids exposed to her nudity. Should parents or every other person hide because of her or what?

Sir, I beg to differ slightly:

How she chooses to dress in her house or compound or space is no other person's concern.

However, it becomes a public concern when her dressing in public space is offensive, embarrassing and despicable.

SaLongs1:
And if e sure for you why not goan join the rest of those cowering Islamic terrorists using their women, children and destinies as human shields to escape the consequences of 7 October when your likes were cheering them on? Death to all terrorists and their lovers!!

Apply for Visa to Israel or USA and let us see if they will give you.

You reside in one lowlife African country and wake up everyday to support evil.

"Evil thrives when good men keep quiet and do nothing.

GistMedia0:
In a spine-chilling turn of events, the streets of Abuja became a battleground today as the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) clashed with Bureau De Change (BDC) operators in a nail-biting confrontation that left bystanders in utter shock.

Eyewitnesses describe the scene as something straight out of an action-packed thriller, as EFCC agents descended upon the BDC operators with an air of intensity rarely witnessed on the streets of the capital. With tensions already running high, the situation quickly escalated into a heart-stopping showdown as both sides refused to back down.

Caught in the midst of this terrifying spectacle, bystanders scrambled for safety as shouts filled the air and the sound of scuffling reverberated through the streets. Mobile phone cameras captured the chaos, with footage showing the intense standoff between the EFCC agents and the defiant BDC operators.

CBN should simply withdraw the license of all BDC operators in Nigeria. That is the only way to solve the problem of black market spectators creating inflation and scarcity of dollars.

DirtyAfonjas:
You are insane. When your terrorists brothers attacked ISRAEL, what was your comments and that of brazilian president

You are more than mad

SaLongs1:
Lula is just another shameless terrorist apologist.

What about you? Aren't you a terrorist with genocidal tendencies. Go and join Israelites so that God will punish you together

Tetrahedron:
Sharap

Keep quiet

Tetrahedron:
Shame on you for perverting the truth

God punish everyone killing innocent people in Israel including you too.
