Hello House,

What's it you take on Total Nigeria. Is the potential for the stock to go higher there. They actually have a hook divident payout which is currently higher than most NSE business.

Please advice.

MBA forex is real and this is my 4th month with them. I have gone to several of their banquets and seminars. Have been receiving my ROI on a steady. I started with 600k and just 4 month am up to 1.5M. It helps me safe my money too rather than leaving it in a bank. With their set up and strategy, I really don’t think they are fake, they just bought one big complex in benin and if is a short term thing for them I know they wouldn’t have done that. During the last seminar I attended in Lagos, ICPC and top officials from the presidency came to urge us to invest and is not fake. Their investment doesn’t deal with money alone it includes:
1. Property investment
2. Rent
3. School
4. Car
5. Traveling etc
This is a professional company on forex. There are professional in this forex game that don’t lose at all. Don’t be surprised they might be making 100% of that your money and be giving you 15% in return. If you are a real investment, you suppose know risk is part of the game.

�...My brother, leave when you have made profit. Unfortunately, as economist say human want is insatiable, therefore, we never have enough of easy money....until we get stuck. Have a small target and RUN!

This is not a bank oooo....You will thank me.

Lol haters everywhere

Ppl view this MBA forex with Ponzi mentality grin it's not the same bc Ponzi is not a business but a pyramid scheme whose success depends on new members fund but forex is a high risk business that has been with us for centuries.


Rumors, lack of new members n panic doesn't affect MBA system bc it is not dependent on getting new members but on successful forex trades.

The only thing that can affect MBA is if they fail to make successful forex trades for a longtime and which will almost not happen bc of the expertise in their fold n the solid risk management strategy they have

My brother, we all know what MBA forex is about. There is no legit business that can give passive investors that massive profit in a year steadily. To check it out, TBill used to give 13% PA and it was considered a gold mine. MBA is giving 15×12% PA that is 180% PA "guaranteed income". My guy, that is insane. Simple mathematics will tell you that is crazy, since they are not in exploration or minning business where money can be created (Oil money comes to mind), every money they make in Forex, someone has to lose it. Tell me, who is losing the 180% PA you guys are making. You also need to understand that MBA forex should be making more for them to give you 180% PA. Assuming they are giving over half of their profit out, let's say the actual market profit is 300% PA.

Chai.

I'm not a saint, I might have done this if it was fresh, and made money like the "lucky" folks that made money from MMM. But my people, don't borrow money for this, it can crash anytime. Just use your spare money. Just like you will do for BetNaija

That is not logical. How does this benefit Africa? You fly to an African concert in Dubai, pay foreign airlines for ticket, pay for hotel in Dubai, pay for accommodation in Dubai, pay for sight seeing, etc. There is a reason why Oscar will only hold in US, or why Grammy wont be moved to Lagos next year.

mignone:


Can I ask pls, why then is the traditional rites irrelevant when one seeks to be wedded at a marriage registry?

The only marraige recognised by law is the one with a Nigerian Government government certificate. White wedding/Nikkai/church wedding are not. Whether you do either the Traditional wedding, Church wedding or the Nikkai, you still need the certificate to be recognised "legally" by the 1999 constitution (The laws are written by men like you and me). Some churches and mosques have however made life easy for people by applying for licence to issue this certificate. However, these religious institutions would still require you to do your traditional marraige first.

If you are a Nigerian. I just want you to find a lawyer friend and tell him to advise you or educate you on the kind of marriage our laws recognize. Your views will definitely shift a little bit from where you are now


By law, you need a government issued certificate. This can be issued by any Nigerian with such authority, some places of worship have applied and gotten the license and can issue this. Biblically, you need the traditional wedding.

That is why no church will do a ceremonial british traditional wedding without you confirming that you have done the traditional wedding.

For some people its important to take the sacred vows in accordance with their church, with an ordained priest or anointed pastor. To offer themselves and their marriage at the altar and to promise to serve God with that marriage, in a religious context. If you go to church to pray normally, to ask for things, to celebrate religious festivals then it would also make sense to celebrate finding your life partner in that church

Some people need their own church members to serve as witnesses... the church is their family and the church family need to observe the union and enjoin to help the couple to keep it strong and healthy

A Christian marriage is also an act of worship in itself so they would like to consecrate their union in a religious context. Just like you go to church to pray but it doesnt mean you dont also worship at home, at school, on the road, etc. This is a sign that you have invited God into your marriage from the beginning. Location matters

Thats not to say that a traditional marriage is just for heathens, but the emphasis is more on other things even though prayers are still offered at the trad wedding ceremony. But a church wedding helps to contextualise the relationship and see it in a different way

The spiritual implication is that you have celebrated yourself, your partner and your union in God's presence which carries a blessing. On the day particular verses from the Bible will be read and explained to you, the wisdom of which you will carry for the rest of your life. You have established yourselves as a wedded couple and a new unit in the church body. The celebration itself, though its imported, has ancient symbolism rooted in Christian practice. This is why its important to a lot of people

I'm sure you don't know that the so called church wedding you described here is the British Traditional wedding. The template is designed by the Church of England. And guess who is the head of the Church if England? Queen Elizabeth
This is how they want their traditional wedding done. They passed this on to their colonies like Nigeria. Wedding's in the bible were mostly done in the brides house. The pastor can bless the wedding at the ceremony. No need for church building, since the building is not the church but the people.

if she believes in the God that she worships in a church then I don't see why she should be coerced into doing otherwise besides she gave the OP due notice, he cannot say he didn't know or expect these developments.

Mr man, you need to read more. Church is where two or more people are gathered in God's name. It is not the building. And there is no such thing as church wedding. It is the traditional wedding of the British people.

Pastors are invited to pray and bless the union during our traditional wedding the same way it was done in the bible when Jesus turned water to wine. All you need is your own traditional wedding. The british style wedding we do in church is fine, but only ceremonial.

Dude, I'm guessing you don't know this. But the traditional wedding is the only wedding recognized by law and by the bible itself. What you call white wedding is the "British Style Traditional Wedding". White gown and suit nah thier traditional attire.

Copied copied copied...

Copied.

The Olu of Warri , Pere of Gbaramatu, Pere of Ogulagha, and every traditional rulers , prominent chiefs, are contractors to the oil companies operating in their land.

Chevron, Shell, Elf, Agip, Total have on their permanent staff children and relatives of these traditional rulers, chiefs, youth leaders.

The only Niger Deltans who are causal workers of the oil companies are those without any royal connections.

I am saying the above to expose the hypocrisy of those who regularly protest against oil companies about their lack of development and employment of Niger Deltans.

Ugborodo oil community that has Chevron tank farm is so underdeveloped, not because Chevron is not ready to develop it; Ugborodo community is poor, wretched and underdeveloped because of the greed, selfishness, nepotism, and wickedness of Itsekiri leaders...I mean the Olu, Thomas, Ayiris, Ugborodo Development Trust Fund, etc.

These Itsekiri leaders don't give a damn about the larger Itsekiri prosperity and development as long as Chevron keep on renewing their contracts to provide security, supply casual workers, supply food stuff, supply house boats, etc.

Those protesting are seeking their own patronage from Chevron; the protest will stop if Chevron add their names to the contractor list.

What happened to the one billion dollars Chevron gave to the Ugborodo Trust Fund for the development and rebuilding of Ugborodo community?

The people treating Itsekiri casual workers like slaves are not Europeans, Yoruba's; they are fellow Itsekiri chiefs and prominent sons.

These Itsekiri leaders will negotiate with Chevron to pay each casual worker four hundred thousand naira, Chevron will agree, only for these same Itsekiri leaders to pay each casual worker forty to fifty thousand naira. So who is the witch and evil one here? Chevron that agreed to pay four hundred thousand naira or the Itsekiri leader who collected four hundred thousand naira and chose to pay forty thousand naira?

These greed, wickedness, selfishness of Itsekiri leaders are also what you will find in ijaw oil producing communities, same with Urhobo oil producing communities.

People talk of Hausa Fulani oppression, oil companies oppression as if those who are carrying out the oppression and underdevelopment are not Itsekiri leaders, Ijaw leaders Urhobo leaders, etc.

When oil spill happened, the community leaders will tell the oil companies not to clean the spill, but rather convert it to money and give it to community people.

Oil companies conducting employment from Lagos are only possible because oil communities leaders have been settled with contracts and permanent staff employment.

Where is the agitation of a better, developed Niger Delta today? It ended after the agitators were settled with employment slots and contracts in NDCC, MND, NIMASA, Amnesty, etc.

The so-called agitation and resource control fight was all about cars, houses, hotels, girls to Bleep, people wives to Bleep, Nollywood actresses to Bleep and buy houses for at Banana island and lekki.

The agitation and resource control protest was all about supplying casual workers to Chevron, NNPC, Shell, Agip, etc.

The agitation and resource control troubles was all about providing security for pipelines, renting of house boats, providing catering services, etc.

Resource control was never about infrastructural development, education, health, clean Niger Delta, houses, jobs, etc.

The motive behind resource control was all about material benefit, it was never an ideological struggle.

The Niger Delta struggle used to be about development and clean environment when it was championed by the legendary Isaac Adaka Boro , and the legendary Ken Saro Wiwa.

A struggle whose motive was greed to acquire properties is bound to be hijacked by all kind of questionable characters.

So who do we Niger Delta blame for our underdevelopment and lack of good governance? Oil companies or Hausa Fulani, or Yoruba in Lagos?

We Niger Deltans are the problems and solutions.

We must eschew or let go of greed, selfishness, and wickedness towards ourselves if we must developed and prosper.

I rest my case. And that is the truth of all truth.

True. This is happening everywhere in the Niger Delta. Take a trip to Kwale for instance. You will see able bodies men with company ID saying they are forklift driver when they cannot even drive a Wheel Barrow. But the company dear not fire them or delay their salary. When the oil stops flowing in the delta, it will be a sorry case

You obviously don't realise that these oil companies love division with host communities, they make payments to a few instead of embarking of development of hostcomms

Wrong. The community leaders and youth leaders are the problem. I have seen a number of these communities were the leaders are actively stopping development. Chevron cannot build anything in that community without the concent of these leaders. And 9 out of ten times these leaders would request for the contract and not execute it or the would ask for kick backs which might be more than the cost of the contract.
