Technology Market / Re: Get The Airtel Smart Box, For Absolutely Free by WithX(m): 3:02pm On Jul 29, 2023 |
richforever123: Come to think of it if this is really true, why wouldn't I exhaust my main 1TB in a week or less and start enjoying 10gb/day (throttled or not), that will give me a total of over 4TB @ 100k. But the Airtel that i know are way smarter than that. They will even cheat you on the main data you paid for ( case is their everyday on data where they will deliberately skip giving you the daily allowance if they know you still have some stock up and wouldn't notice). Even with all things being equal, the way they zap data looks magical to me because it's always unexplainable no matter how hard you try to justify your usage. @Shopnig24 hope you are not unintentionally falling for airtel sweet talk o. 1 Like |

endy69: Its 20 Mecanized Batallion bro. And I like how you gave gashaka its befitting title, the only town with three unique name " Serti Baruwa Gashaka". In fact 2010 in Gashaka remain memorable and my two visits to Gembu still remain unforgettable. The only place you got to drink cold water without having a refrigerator. Plus the people are very hospitable still had contact with some of them. If only our government can harness the potential of that serene environment together with that of Gashaka Gumti National Park, Taraba state will be a heaven for tourists. |

Politics / Re: Lets Check Who's Right Between Peter Obi And Fashola!!!! by WithX(m): 3:42pm On Jul 03, 2022 |
mrvitalis: You are very correct. The intervention given out by CBN was grossly abused. some who are not farmers were able to get the grants and may go ahead to marry more wives and build houses with the money. That shows why our local rice sells almost as the same price as foreign rice. The huge intervention would have been properly managed if it was done through commercial banks as you rightly suggested and we would all have been feeling the effect by now. I wonder how our policy makers things. My pain is that most of the local farmers who are legit were not able to access the grants. |

mrvitalis: You made some very valid submission, however, mrvitalis:You do not need the bolded. I wonder why it has become so difficult make a point without using inappropriate words. mrvitalis: You are very correct going by the antecedent of our politicians where only a fraction of the contract sum is actually meant for the project, a larger percentage are going into private pockets. Or where else will most of them find the money to buy a 100million nomination form. However, apart for the workers that will be directly employed, any project do have a multiplier effect (Externality), many suppliers will be contacted, food vendors, sub contractors and many more will benefit from the construction. This goes down the value chain and the money circulates. mrvitalis: Solid analysis I must say, but lets assume the garment producers, poultry farmers, and fish farmers have all the materials needed sourced locally (which is not possible) how will they get their finished products across tot he market if we decide not to build roads (infrastructure)? how will they keep cost of production low if there is no electricity (infrastructure) in the face of rising energy prices? The job of government is to create an enabling business environment of which infrastructure plays a significant part. Our only problem is rather than use the scarce resources to create the needed infrastructure, they will siphon the money and use the project which will later be abandoned for election campaigns. |
Politics / Re: Nigeria Won’t Float Naira, Emefiele Tells IMF, World Bank by WithX(m): 2:01pm On Apr 23, 2022 |
JuanDeDios: I appreciate your technical input sir but i will like you to educate me more. How can the market determine the price of a commodity it has no control over? Remember we don't have control over the Dollars. If CBN stop fixing official rate, Will i have reasons to complain when my bank charge me a rate of ₦1000 per dollar for a purchase i made using my Naira debit card (remember no official rate and they have the right to claim that is the price they got it ) What happened if all the BDC operators (of which most of them are CBN big wigs anyway) buy off the money CBN plough into the market at a lower price then hoard it and decide to sell for over ₦1,000 (buyers will have no other place to run to) Remember sir that we already are not generating enough foreign exchange as we are a import dependent country and we aren't making any practical effort to change the narratives. |
Politics / Re: Nigeria Won’t Float Naira, Emefiele Tells IMF, World Bank by WithX(m): 1:42pm On Apr 23, 2022 |
koning: Just like that? Is that a guarantee that the black market rate will not rise beyond the ₦700 cap in another two weeks? Have you considered what effect it will have on the economy? how it will shoot up the already skyrocketed price of commodities in the market. I dont want to sound like a conspiracy theorist but most of those who owns the BDCs are top guns at the CBN they will hoard the Dollars till you will even be begging to buy at ₦800, when that happened then we advice CBN to cap the naira at ₦1000 again and the circle goes on and on. All we need is just a strategic policy that will tackle heads on the excess of the BDC /banks/ black market operators |

Llyodsjids: That is the simplest thing to do in a sane society. What even is Aboki business (who can hardly add 2+2) with currency exchange?. Btw what you suggested was done years back but it was not effective as banks will always tell you they have no Dollar buy sit around and you will see different abokis walking out of the same bank with different denomination of Dollars (They offer the banks a rate higher than the official rate) and You that really need it have no choice than to go to the abokis and buy at a much higher rate since the banks will not sell to you (even if you offer the same price the aboki offer for fear of being reported to the CBN). We really are in a mess and its just by the grace of God and the recent rice in global oil price that is still keeping the naira in the region of ₦600. Going into the holidays in December (Remember no more travel ban) and the election drawing near, it will be a miracle we wouldn't reach the ₦1,000 mark by January 2023. 1 Like |

The Naira has already been floated more than three times in the past two years, and what has been the result of those floating? You will notice after each floating/devaluation of the naira the market will normalize for about two to three weeks then all of a sudden business begin as usual. then give it another one or two moths, the gap will be wide open again. we have been going in circles and that have led us to where we are Today. Now imagine a situation where the Naira is on auto pilot and its without any interventions , considering the tendencies of our banks (who will buy your $ at official rate but sell to you at market rate) or our BDC (the Alhajis) what would have been the fate of the Naira now. Just as someone rightly said,, a $ would have exchange for over ₦2,000 by now. We need practical solutions and also need to take the problem from the root not all these ineffective short sighted approach. I just wonder how a technocrat could pilot a sinking ship for about a decade without a viable solution rather leading the Apex bank to a point where even rookies held the post it wasn't as bad as we had it now. It would have been an honorable thing to resign if there are many bottlenecks that would not allow you do your job rather than tarnish a successive business career built over the years. JuanDeDios: |
TV/Movies / Re: Customer Review Of DSTV, TSTV And Yayi-tv. The best for you. by WithX(m): 11:54am On Mar 23, 2022 |
chatinent: This is misinformation. First you could have make your points without referring to the other thread What the guy in the other thread said are is personal experience which everyone using TSTV will testify to The Yayi decoder for your information is a paytv decoder which shows pirated football contents and they have only about four stations in all. To watch their channels you need to pay monthly subscriptions which is in getting to about 5k now as their dealers pays in USD. They have no registered office in Nigeria and getting it to buy is another issue. You are right about the decoder as it can be used for other free to air satellite channel (which other paytv decoder do not accept). This function however can be achieved with any free to air decoder which can cost as low as 6 - 10k. Also there are other satellite TV operators in Nigeria which offers either pay tv( SLTV, Moplex, TSTV, Witv) or free to view (Our tv and Satview) In all if the intent is to get free to air channels its better to get a free to air decoder however free to air channels are not always there forever but one good thing about them is you get more latest movies (I watched Coming to America 2 the second day it was released on a free to air channel). |

I knew the clergyman was on a mission the moment I saw Bayero University Kano on his list. Presently I am a student of the school and I can confirm to you that Christians in the school do not only have place of worship they have a voice. They have a central fellowship ( which even have a hummer bus) and there are fellowship for denomination as well.
