Lets leave it to OAU, hey ave been representing Nigeria for years, making sure we are on the map for good things in the world.

It is quite sad to see businesses shut down after quite a few years in Nigeria. Tried checking the cityhoppers website, and it has expired. Checked to see if their terminals is still active, and there are no available terminals to book the Lagos to Abuja night bus or to see their existing prices. Quite sad indeed.

Heh, so he should have pronounced Jonathan with local dialect bah

We don't even know who is more dull between the opposition and their supporters

Lol, this is very funny though... So adding President is now bad?

Well, what an answered prayer, but only if they would have a kind heart leader and someone who is both God fearing and hates cheating. This would elevate the family

Honestly, discussing Nigeria can be both tiring and brain-damaging. Tell me how a governor will be giving Electric cars to Magistrates, for what exactly? Green Earth?

Why or what prompt the governor to take such actions? Where did that money come from? What is the purpose for that? We need to do better as a Nation, or we fall together as one, while the elites send their children abroad and continue plunging us to depths we and our kids can't crawl out of.

Honestly, driving in Nigeria can be profitable, but just how much profit is that money? Let's say they drove from morning till 8:00 PM, and earned 50,000 Naira? Then all the drivers are supposed to be multi-millionaires

I don't understand, can you expatiate on this topic and give us more details as to why you think you made the wrong choice?

There is a reason why this company is one of the biggest in Nigeria, with over 800 vehicles in its fleet, luxury buses, Toyota Siennas, among others, and yes, even used for waybills and logistics. I think we can all agree that Peace Mass Transit is among the biggest transportation companies catering to millions of customers monthly, not just in Nigeria, but in Africa at large.

Someone called the Ajah Motor Park, Lagos #1 gateway, this park has served millions of Nigerians annually, and most lagosians who came to Lagos from other states.

Happy birthday to that good looking hustling man. 40 looks good on him

Take away the thugs from extorting the bus drivers and transport prices will crash.

Who would take away the thugs extorting bus drivers? Nigerians using the high way or the government?

This particular transportation company offers one of the very best road transportation services in Nigeria. I do love them because their basic fare is way cheaper or more affordable when compared to most other brands available out there.

I think what most people fail to see, is that you get to pay very cheap prices for the same services rendered in other transportation companies such as GIGM, ABC Transport, Libra, etc. You simply can't argue that this company isn't worth it's salt. I love their customer support

Truly a sad state of affair.

Honestly, May his soul rest in peace.

Do as they do in Rome.

He was stupid and paying for the consequences. You already know those guys are fanatic about their religion then you tried to test them. To crown it all, you didn't do it from the safety of Sri Lanka you did it in Saudi Arabia.

Laughing over the death of someone?

Antichristian2:
Who dey hold the church for blokoz?

One pastor will say A today and tomorrow will revert to 'not A'.

And watching the video of VDM mocking one pastor bleating on the pulpit singing, I know say church don finish!

And there are some Christians who would involve their pastor in almost everything in their life more than their spouse!

Na Jesus teach una so?

You're name literally said Anti-christian, how can one talk to someone who is clearly full of hatred for the church. I hope you created anti-islam and ask if muslims are following the teachings of Muhammad of jihad and turning people who aren't islam to 2nd class citizen

The Nigerian transport system is truly disheartening. Lagos to Abuja was very affordable a few years ago, but now the Lagos to Abuja road transportation fare is very expensive, and the current price is what one used to pay for flight tickets.

This is truly sad, nevertheless, the major factor contributing to this expensive transport fare is Fuel, once fuel is affordable, between 300 Naira or below, I believe sincerely that things will get normal. I hope and Pray that Nigeria become a place we all will be happy to call HOME, and not where everyone is planning to migrate to one European country or the other.

This is what the government is created to do. Manage and make life easier for its citizens. However, the story seems different when it comes to Nigeria. I sincerely hope we get better and enjoy this country, rather than running around politicians like kids and praising their kids

The guy isn't up to her standard, noticed how it's not because he is not polished, or speaks great English, but merely due to the fact that he's not educated. Probably didn't go to university. However, she wants to keep him at the stand while waiting to see if better options come in the future, so she could scream words like " But I didn't promise to marry you", "we are not even dating", etc.

Her friend clearly, as a lady knows their shenanigans and maybe, understand how the world works and decided to get on with her life, and she's angry, not because she loved the man or want to marry him, but because she wants to have and keep her option, incase life didn't send a tall dark skin 6.3 feet billionaire that will have eyes for her only.

Please, I do not want to be agitated abeg

Yes, this is certainly great news, but Tanzania does not have the capacity to help the average young Nigerian trying to migrate and make money abroad (sad that we have to come to this, but the way the current Nigerian economy is, migration looks like the common hope for anyone who isn't interested in joining the Nigerian Political class or making money from shady means, this does not mean we do not have legit hustlers in Nigeria). A welcome development, maybe for businessmen and businesswomen; are students included? I have yet to come across a Nigerian studying in Tanzania or who has travelled to Tanzania looking for greener pasture.

AMINDA:
Op, for a Tinubu supporter that you are, you don't want to go there.

I do not think OP is a supporter of Tinubu, because an intelligent Tinubu supporter won't even want to create this type of thread, because it would certainly come back as a bomerang attack on their principal.

Well, let's see how it goes. But honestly, who is Tanzania to diminish or see us finish? if not for our current woes, fallen economy, and dollar rates. We would be building refineries, shopping malls and open our border for their citizens to come and hustle in Nigeria.

FSBoperator:
The reply is full of half truths.

Americans who earn far higher than Canadians and have far lower cost of living are crying over cost of gas prices.

Why are Americans crying despite earning far higher than this immigrant in Canada ?

Are they crying? Jesus Christ, I am not here to argue with APC, I am a family man trying to feed my family, and I won't come here to exchange words with individuals who know the truth, see the truth, but refuse to accept it. Or worse, those who can't comprehend simple matters or do not understand politics.

But tell yourself the truth: would you like your children to live in America and follow their citizens to wail about the price of fuel, while earning a minimum wage of 2Million Naira? Like minimum-wage work in McDonald's? And still have free time to work other menial jobs to increase income?

The minimum wage we're arguing about, is it open to everyone in Nigeria? Please lets be guided, love one another and pray that God help us do better as a country, and not throw our morals to the dogs, all in the name of politics. God Bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria and help us grow to compete in global stages for better things, achievements, and not in wailing or comparing pains and sufferings and natural disaster,

FSBoperator:
I don't understand you guys at all.

Are you crying that fuel prices that are sold higher in Canada is cheaper than Nigeria that has the one of the lowest costs for any country not subsidizing fuel?

Or are you arguing that salaries are poor?

Fuel prices are lower in Nigeria, did you ignore the entire paragraph written by OP that I quoted? He clearly disclosed that a day's job, (10 -12Hours) salary, because in Canada, they're paid hourly, can buy fuel which you can use to function for 2 -3 weeks. Whereas, our minimum wage, which is a month (30 Days), won't even purchase fuel that can carry you for same 2 -3 weeks. This is simply to comprehend. I don't know how to explain this to you any better.

Israel did 9/11.

And this scripted fake terrorist attack, which has only Jewish passengers as witnesses, is highly convenient to push the next great shoah.

Israel did 9/11? The kind of lies you guys believed is quite alarming to be 100% honest with you. Same way you guys believed it was Christians that were trying to portray Muslims as bad, so they started boko haram. Same way you guys believed the world h8tes you, but always destroying and offing everyone whose beliefs do not align with your own.

Why are they fighting on the flight kwanu? is it that there's a girl between them or their professional opinion clashed to the extend that they had to exchange blows to sort it out? Hope it's not black pilots, before the whites will start saying their usual suspect.

Cubana Chiefpriest can be a werey on several matters. But on this topic right here, man is spitting facts like fire. Last time I passed Edo state, it was a total bad experience for me. I was honestly shocked as to how and why we endure so much as Nigerians, especially that Edo and Delta road, the worst I've ever seen.

Lets leave the governor to keep on dancing.

I even thought the maiden flight was taken in Nigeria, and I was like, lemme see

Memphis357:
“I bought fuel yesterday in Toronto, Canada, at $1.7999 CAD per litre, and it cost about $98.95 CAD to fill up my tank. This should ideally last me about a week or more.

Now, the minimum wage in Canada is $17.95 CAD per hour, which means someone who works an average of 8 hours a day will earn $143.60 CAD before tax. A day's salary is enough to fuel his or her car for 2–3 weeks. This means that even one of the lowest earners in Canada can afford to own and drive a car daily without the cost of fuel becoming an overwhelming burden. Public education for children is also free and of high quality.

In Nigeria, fuel is about ₦1,300 per litre. It would cost about ₦88,000 to fill up a similar tank. The minimum wage in Nigeria is ₦70,000 per month. This means that an entire month's minimum wage cannot even fill the tank once.

A minimum-wage earner in Nigeria cannot realistically afford to own, fuel, and maintain a car. The same person still has to afford food, rent, children's education, healthcare, electricity, transportation, and other basic necessities. The list goes on.

In fact, even a bank manager in Nigeria earning ₦1 million monthly could still struggle to maintain a decent standard of living after covering these basic expenses.

This is one reason poverty is so widespread in Nigeria. The cost of basic living is simply too high relative to what the average person earns.

You don't just have an income problem in Nigeria. You have an affordability problem.

For millions of Nigerians, simply living a decent life has become too expensive and increasingly impossible.”

This is something Yarimo, Helinues, Seunmsg, Richtaiwo, Omenka, Ngeneukwuenu, Legendhero, Wickedtruths, FSBoperator, Madridguy, Ttalk, Chopnaira, Slytiger, Ibrahimcoomasie and Guestmale won't be able to comprehend

This reply here is powerful. One day work is sufficient enough to fuel a car that will take you for 2-3 weeks. May God guide us all.

Haemu:
Don't mind them, there's no part of the world that doesn't get flooded but as usual Agenda must Agend

You're right, but why is it that whenever it comes to bad achievements, calamities, your automatic response is to compare it to the world? But if it comes to better achievements, or comparing Nigeria to the world and how far we are behind, it's automatic demarketing of Nigeria?

Make that make sense. Above all, our prayer is that Nigeria be better for us all.

Who is Cassava stem receivers? Is this the new way or referring to Peter Obi Supporters or who are we now referring to with this idiom?
