Some people don't even understand what is happening in Dangote fuel issue.

NNPC sold crude oil to Dangote at the international market price rate, the only difference is that it was sold at Naira equivalent instead of dollar.

Dangote will not sell at the rate lower than the international rate he bought the crude oil from NNPC.


The cabal and NNPC are the one frustrating this deal simply because no sane country will buy the substandard fuel produced at their refinery abroad.

The refinery business in Malta, Venezuela, Malaysian will go out of business soon so they need to fight hard to remain in business at the detriment of Nigerians

Most Nigerian politicians have criminal history.

bigboluet:
I told you to stop taking that stuff.. it is not good for your body.

Why are you demarketing yourself?

I will never play down the influence of prayers, only small children who have not seen life in the African context will do such.

However, we should learn to differentiate between the role of divinity and humanity.

God gave us brain to help ourselves on matters that involves humanity, problems solving and charity.

This man involvement in the Buhari misadministration is a big dent in his personality.

It would have been more honourable for him if he had resigned. Anyways, that is ,if his own hand is also clean.

France is another troublesome country claiming territories all over the world. France refused to let go of their colonised nations, they still determine who rule the countries, their economy and even went as far as minting currencies for those countries. The same currencies that France does not consider worthy to be used in their own country.

Imagine France claiming ownership of the largest portion of the Amazon rainforest in the South America continent

Putin is another garbage of a person who need to be removed from his position. So long as he is there, the world peace is still under pressure.

Putin is not fighting the west because he cares for the world, he is simply fighting for the restoration of the defunct Sovereign Union which will never happen.

He sees Trump as a soft guy that can easily be manipulated since he doesn't believe in due process and hardly take advice.

Why are you giving Kemi the unnecessary audience, she has chosen her path, let her walk through it in peace and likewise be ready for the consequences of her actions.

Africa is where it is today because of the attempt of some people to please the white people who believe in their superiority, use and dump, divide and rule tactis and can never see you as one of them no matter how much of a sell out you are to your people.

When you sell your people to an outsider, even the buyer will not trust you.

TCN, another waste of public fund.

The restoration of the stillbirth of a National grid has now become the new achievement of the moribund organisation.

TCN should be unboundled, let each state or region manage their own end of the network or let it be sold to real investors who can invest in high voltage transmission mini grids which can wheel power from one state or location to the other and they will be paid by the GENCOS and DISCOS based on the amount of power transmitted per time.

This would help the federal government to hands-off the unprofitable venture and a drain to the scarce resources and likewise end the fraud called electricity subsidy.

More than $100bn invested on electricity since 1999 with nothing tangible to show for it. That amount is more than the GDP of so many nations in the world.

The likes of Obama, Hillary etc are running the democrat aground with those chaotic and immortal policies and thirst for blood through proxy wars.

America influence is very huge in the world, Europe, Asia, Africa, Oceania, South & even North America regions. Everyone look forward to America which is supposed to be a pace setter but what do we have, legalisation of various abominations Transgender, Same sex marriage, Abortions, exposing children to LGBTQ evils among others.

Note: the republican is not innocent also but a check will reveal to you that Democrats gave recognitions to those vices and even forced it on other nations through the bait of a loan or protections and neck pressing IMF and World Bank.

The hunger seed in Nigeria was planted from GEJ admission and the subsequent misadministration helped to nurture it and even added fertiliser to make the growth rapid while the current administration helped in harvesting it but it is yet to be served.

The insecurity in the North was a deliberate act to cause food scarcity in Nigeria by chasing the farmers out of their lands and any one who intend to venture into commercial farming in the south will have the Fulani herdsmen to contend with.

If you don't want hunger, create a subsistence farm closer to your house where you can easily plant little crops and vegetables. Also the likes of bag farming can help in tuber planting even in the city.

If you don't want hunger, start growing something.

Right way to go!

The essence of the new law is to empower the states to think outside the box and take full control of the generation, transmission and distribution of power within their states instead of solely relying on the stillbirth of a national grid which collapse at any slight provocation.


Not like the charade of Enugu State who withdrew electricity distribution licence from EEDC and gave it again to EEDC subsidiary.

The south Africans forget so fast.

All these nations they treat with disdain all contributed to their current freedom. They are loosing the control of the country to the Europeans once again, majority of the corporations and lands in the country are owned by the Europeans. Even the political power they claim to have is just a rulership in proxy.

Unfortunately, a you can't help a wilful captive.

Even if you set them free, they must fight their way back to captivity.

We would remind them when the time comes

Thundafireseun:
With FAAC Kogi state is still struggling to pay salaries…..

How much more when it disappears??

Yet KOGI state is not on the list….. foooooooolish list

Struggling to pay salaries does not mean they don't have, it is a pure misplace of priority.

The governor and his god father's interest comes before workers salaries

The parasitic infection in the mind of those northern governors will not allow them to see anything good about the tax reform Bill.

They are never innovative when it comes to the economic development of their region.

You forbade some products from selling in your region but you want to share the tax proceeds from the same products.

Who does that?

I hope you also know that the blue collar worker you referred to is also paying over N40m annually for rent (local area) N25m for utilities including telephone, Internet etc, over 23 - 25% in tax, annual insurance (car, health, house etc) and gas (fuel) over N30m, Food and Entertainment N20M, clothing and body care N15M, Family N40M, Fine boy/girl N30m among others.

Note: this is an approximation which means some could be less or higher than quoted.

Also, not all blue collar worker get to work 40hrs/week all the time. Sometimes, you might not even work 30hrs unless you are on fixed contract.

Though the guy that posted the information is living in his imagination, who pays that amount for blue collar anywhere ? Alot of white collar worker don't even earn that amount per annum.

Below is the average salary of a blue collar worker

Northerners use whatever position they get to enrich themselves and promote religion at the detriment of their people.

During Buhari administration, the northerners held over 85% of the leadership positions in the Nation's security architecture. Despite that, banditry was introduced into the woeful security situation.

Also, terrorist sects increased and even extended their base from the North East to North Central part of the country. They were almost gaining ground in the three southern regions if not for the people who rose against it.

It is about time for the northern youths to rise up and challenge the people plundering their future and looting the future of their generation unborn to develop the land of the Arabs who doesn't even see Africans as human.

It will be an act of hypocrisy if we ignore the troubles that the northern leaders have caused this nation even upto the last administration's reckless looting, borrowing and gross mismanagement of the Nation's resources which is severely consequential to the current suffering of Nigerians.

Aside from the very early post independence Northern leader, tell me another Northern leaders, politicians or military heads of state whose administration has significantly progressed the lot of this nation? I challenge you to name one. Umaru Musa Yar'dua who started on a good note unfortunately didn't live long to prove himself. It is pertinent to mention that this is not an attempt to salvage their southern counterparts from the mess but my point is that most northerners who rose to the helms of leadership in this country never came with any good intentions. Rather, they preferred to promote their religious interest at the detriment of their people and the entire nation. Since majority of the northern population have been religiously brainwashed, they sheepishly fall in line as expected. I.e, their religion is more important to them than Nigeria. The last one was boldly involved in extra budgetary spending to finance governance in Niger Republic. He even shamelessly said that he would move to Niger Republic if they didn't allow him in his Katsina house.

However, the undereducation of the northern populace and infrastructural deficit and decay is no body's fault other than the northern leaders who misruled this country and took the looting to develop another man's country even upto Europe and America. The new generation of Northern leaders are currently channelling their looted resources and the future of their unborn children to the Arabs land. Only a f00lish man will remove his father's window to make firewood for his in-law.

The Almajiri system in the North is an unchecked political tool which now backfired. The ideology of "the people with the largest number get the power", the same system used in Lebanon and other places to wrestle power from the people of other faith and race. This has been working for the North which accounts for the elongated hold on power in Nigeria. When you have people who have no place in the society, they become a tool for various vices which is what is now happening in the North.

It is an act of insincerity to blame the federal government for responsibilities of the states and local government. You will agree with me that about 80% of local governments in the North are just there to pay worker salary with little or no impact on the lives of their people. Most state governors are not in tune with the plight and the realities of their people. What do you have to stay about governors who doesn't live in the state they purportedly govern? When the next election period comes, these same cliques of politicians get elected again.

Even upto the federal positions, northerners are more interested ìn the occupant being from the North and practise our faith and less concerned about the capacity and abilities to deliver good governance.

Talk about the insecurity in the North, who are those behind it? Southerners? There is no rationale to blame anyone from the south for the destructions and killings in the North. We all know that it is just a game of illegal mining and resource control. Some people think that killing in any part of the country is a way to discredit the incumbent, it is like eating poison and expecting someone else to die.

"Nigerians have been sharing the proceeds from the oil in Niger-Delta and the VAT & customs duties generated in the South-West but when resources were discovered in the North, they turned it to a game of banditry and terrorism ".

A new norther Nigeria has little to do with the federal government, it has more to do with calling all the power, wealth and position hungry northern leaders to order and make some of them a scapegoat including the traditional rulers. Afterwards, the northern Nigeria need to develop a region wide developmental blueprint and desist from using religion to manipulate the people. Humanity comes first and religion comes fourth in the scheme of necessities.

Everyone knows the northerners with their extremism and radicalism when it comes to protest, violence and lawlessness.

The irony of the mater is that, this has been happening without caution or control even from their traditional and political leadership. The numerous killings under the disguise of alleged blaspheming, several post elections violence, willful destruction of private and public properties among others.

These attitudes must not go unchecked as it is responsible for why most organisations don't want to position their key investment in the North and even their political leaders don't want to invest their looted resources in the same region but rather move it to develop the Arabs land, their masters.

I will not also be surprised if all that happened in the court were just scripts concocted by their lawyer to gather public sympathy.

There is a need to set the tone straight that henceforth, those unchecked rascalities will no longer be tolerated as a nation whether in the North or South.

Also, Nigeria should not leave the northern politicians to completely destroy the destiny of the northern youths while they fly their own children abroad for a better life.

The North and the South make up the entity called Nigeria, if the North is left in a deplorable state, the progress recorded by the south will be adversely affected by the northern condition which will affect the nation as a whole.

trium:
I don't know how old you are and I am not saying that to bully you but if you are a young person, I can tell you that you are wrong. Study Nigerian history and you will understand why I said so. If you want me to give bullet point examples, I will respond to your quote.

Things could've changed in recent times but as bad as e be, Nigeria is still the beacon of the African. I am not black so I don't use that term.

Thank you for the last paragraph.

I have been trying to get people to see beyond their nose.

It is outright stigmatisation to call Africans black 🖤

And you call people whose colour is not in any way closer to white, white.

Colour black is used in depicting all negativities and some group of people decided to tag your generation "black" and we carry it around with pride.

gawu1:
Look at this IPOB p g Christian Jew terrorist making an unfounded allegation against Saudi Arabian because one of his darling country is mentioned as no go area for his intended-to-go- area to spread his "developer" business.
Because Saudi Arabia didn't allow your father into their country as prevention method against spreading illicit drug business into their country doesn't mean that they hate blacks.
It is undisputable fact that Saudi Arabia is one of the country in the world that receives largest black population every month year in year out. But the country doesn't welcome developers who are commonly known for fake and illicit drug business.

What do you know?

You are seated in your remote village slamming your head on the ground for a foreign idol. I have been to places across the globe so listen "child" when I talk to you.

I am not writing based on hear say. If you know half of what I know, you will leave that your brainwashed religion ASAP.

Also note that, I will never make defense for Isreal or Europeans on religion and racism matter, I know them quite well than what they portrayed to the world.

Saudi Arabia is the number one enemy of the African race, they hate Africans with passion.

Aside from the Hajj tourism where they collect your money, just try to live in their midst and see the biggest hatred of your life.

Here, some deluded people will still be defending and killing for the Saudi god.

Africans, please wake up!

What is happening in Canada lately?

Alot of all these Yoruba entertainers are just appearing any how in canada.

Is it now easy to get Canadian visa or the Canadian embassy in Nigeria is now a pro Yoruba organisation?

I guess 56 should be his football age or military age

He looks older than the age

Beyond the pains that T-Pain is dishing to Nigerians, he is actually making some key reforms that will project the country on the path of growth.

A Nigeria with mentality of the northerners will turn the country to the likes of Somali, Sudan, Afghanistan etc.

Wait! Why are my even surprised? All the aforementioned countries are all propelled by the same force of the Arabs agenda to their slaves.

A lot of women still contest why God ordered women to submit to men... the truth is that most women don't have the mental capacity to plan and manage real life situations effectively. The depth of some of their thinking is below one inch.

The west has however compensated them by making them a spoilt brat and placed values on them above children and men.

Imagine women holding world positions currently held by men?

America is about to be used as a litmus test of what women can do with power. Though her back bones are still meeeen

Taking sides on Wike and Fubara rift by the Rivers people is one of the craziest things.

Politicians are not after your interest, they are more concerned about their position and loot hence they can do anything to maintain their position.

Rivers people should be more concerned about accountabilities and fairness in governance rather than the distractions that comes with the rift which paved way for sympathy for failures.

Nigerian politicians are never your friend, so don't fight for any of them unless you are employed to manage their PR. Spending your data to defend a politicians requires some mental scrutiny.

Advocate for good governance and accountabilities from whoever is in the office rather than taking sides.

The problem of Nigeria is that an average Nigerian think and behave like an average politicians and civil servants in power.

The young ones are the worse, they are very myopic in their thinking and throw caution to the wind at every given chance.
