Music/Radio › Re: Burna boy's twice As Tall review and reaction by WoundedLamb: 10:36pm On Aug 14, 2020*

Onijagidijagan:
As a Nigerian I will briefly react and describe the Album this ways:

Vocal: full of autotunes (bad) is throat paining Burna boy during recording?

Afrobeats: (poor afrobeat beats in all d songs)

Dance: (No dance track)

All Concepts: (Annoying)

Collaboration: No meaningful Nigerian artist featured on d album

I think the songs and beat is less of a Nigerian afrobeats thing it won't be a hit in Nigeria but USA and UK.

The album falls behind Davido, Wizkid, Tiwa 's album hands down. Also African giant is twice better and taller compared to this junks hyped by diddy (executive producer)

I see.

Is there a Nigerian in it at all? If there is, then instead of saying "no meaningful Nigerian artist", why not say "no popular Nigerian artist"? That's a bit considerate to other people's hustle.

Thanks for sharing.

Health › Re: I Am Injecting Women Birth Control Shots To Reduce Sex Drive As A Man by WoundedLamb: 10:04pm On Aug 13, 2020

Your signature says you're a god. I interpret that to mean that you acknowledge the fact that your destiny is in your own hands. What you do, feel, desire, etc. are within your control. Let the hero in you take over.

Like someone already said, it's not about which gender you're attracted to, it's about your addiction to sexual contents. If you can reduce the amount of sexual contents you consume (chats, videos, pics, etc.) and also try to get busy, I believe you'd regain your clean slate. You might also be within the age period when your libido is highest. If that's the case, acknowledging it would be the first step and then doing as I suggested above would follow. The whole idea is never to indulge in self hatred or self harm.

You aren't the only gay person out there. No matter how your country tries to play the ostrich, fact remains that there are many gay people in Nigeria and more will be born. Your are very normal. But being gay is not an excuse for promiscuity. A decent gay man is a blessing to his the community.

Stay safe.

Why not? As men grow older there sexual value increase. While as women grow older there sexual value decrease

During my twenties girls around 18 to 25 are so difficult to hunt, but am in my thirties now and those girls then look so cheap to me and desperate...

Op ask your self this question why do you think girls freak out as they get older, its simply because women value and worth depend on how many attention a man gives them..

So op at 42 you at your best years as a man, you can hunt any lady from 18 to whatever age you prefer, for me I like them young, I don't want over used product.. .

Lol... guys always want to put themselves in a superior light in every thing.

This is not true. Both genders sexual values goes down as they grow older. The difference is the time frame. Girls start having sexual values much earlier than boys and consequently, they also start declining earlier such that at the end, both genders still have comparable amounts of peak time. You couldn't get girls at that age cause your own sexual value hadn't quite peaked. Girls of your age at that time were far more sexually valuable and thus had their eyes on men of comparable sexual value (which were men older than you).

Torture2020:
What do you mean by the Nigerian economy is ahead of that of Ghana? What parameters are you using?

What is the level of inflation in Ghana and Nigeria? What is life expectancy in Nigeria compared with Ghana? What is GDP/economic growth in Nigeria, compared with Ghana? What is Nigeria’s per capita GDP, compared with Ghana?

What is the level of unemployment in Nigeria, compared with Ghana? What is the poverty level in Nigeria, compared with Ghana? How is Nigeria ranked in terms of access to health care, quality education, electricity and personal security?

Ghana is far ahead of Nigeria on all these indices. So when you say “the Nigerian economy is ahead of Ghana” can you provide credible and verifiable evidence? Talk is cheap

Yes, Ghana redominated her currency, but there is nothing special about that. What you failed to mention was the fact that the Ghanaians has been one of the fastest growing in Africa. The Ghanaian economy has been growing consistently around 6% in the past decade or so. If you want to talk about how Nigeria and Ghana are doing on the economic front, then provide figures and stop your shambolic innuendos and needless attempts to rubbish the great achievements of Ghanaians in trying to rebuild their economy. Naira has more economic value, and yet Nigeria has become the undisputed champions and headquarters of world poverty?

Bro, you are getting very emotional with all your responses here. This is a mere discussion and not a fight. Rubbish Ghana? Why would I rubbish Ghana? Where I live, the white man doesn't care where you are from. So this is not a Ghana vs Nigeria thing (that's childish). If you had read a couple of posts down, you'd see where I gave a further explanation by comparing the purchasing power of both currencies. Besides, Nigerian economy is not the same as Ghanaian's. And that's merely because Nigeria is a much bigger country, far more populated and thus more economically vibrant due to the larger market. Isn't this glaring? Must we argue over everything on Nairaland?

Parameter wise, Ghanaian economy is growing and when expressed in terms of percentage of its former state, it's at a higher rate than Nigeria's (7.9% as against 6.6%) but it's not up to Nigeria's economy and it will take a miracle to get up to that given the size difference. But in terms of purchasing power parity, Naira is more than 40% higher. (This means 1Naira can purchase in Nigeria more than its Ghanaian Cedis equivalent can purchase in Ghana thus making Ghana a more expensive place). This is because Nigerian GDP (total worth of finished goods/services produced in the country) will always be higher because Nigeria has more industries.

In summary, Nigerian currency has higher basket worth (PPP) due to the high GDP. Nigeria's revenue is more than 100% higher than that of Ghana which means she can afford more amenities. Nigeria has more industries. Cost of living is lower in Nigeria. However, Nigeria has more number of poor people. Ghana's economy is growing at a slightly higher rate. Ghana has better wealth distribution scheme.

For discussion sake, you really need to understand the indices of the poverty report you're mentioning. Before Nigeria was termed the poverty capital, it was India. Now, does that mean the economy of Ghana was better than that of India too? Of course, not. It is a function of population (the same population that constitute the source of economic vibrancy). The number of poor people in Nigeria will always be higher. If it were expressed in percentage, it would have been South Sudan (with more than 95%). Ghana has done well by moving from more than 45% to much less while Nigeria remains above that. However, the huge norminal difference in terms of population means that it takes elevating a fewer people above poverty line in Ghana to reduce the percentage than it takes in Nigeria. This explanation does not undermine the efforts of Ghana in the area of poverty reduction and most importantly, wealth distribution (where Nigeria is seriously lagging behind). Nigeria just has more money to spend. The US has more poor people than Canada, it doesn't mean the Canadian economy is better.

I'm probably not going to contribute any further to this chat cause I shy away from any emotionally charged threads but if you have any sincere question, I'd be willing to answer.

Good morning.

Programming › Re: Pls Help. How Do I Get A Domain Name? How Do I Link My Website To The Web? by WoundedLamb: 1:27am On Aug 09, 2020

Some hosting companies come with free domain name. So what you need to do is to buy basic hosting plan (less than 3,500NGN per year). Basic plans have limited resources like mail accounts, space, etc. but at your stage, this shouldn't worry you. Basically, they'll send your C-panel login details to your mail. You can log in there to set up mails, get your IP and FTP port number (typical). It takes 24 hours to propagate globally. Then you get an FTP client (anyone) and use it to access your root folders using the IP address and port number you got above. Through this FTP client, you can upload your site folder. And voilà! You're online!

abiolamitodun:
So that means that 1cidi is greater than the naira...?

Short answer:
In terms of norminal value, yes but in terms of economic value, no. In terms of normal value, the Ghanaian Cedis is even greater than the Japanese currency but this obviously has no implication on the economy. Both the Japanese economy and the Nigerian economy are still far ahead of that of Ghana. In summery, Nigerians have higher purchasing power, the living standard in Nigeria is higher and inflation is still lower in Nigeria.

Long answer:
Let me try my best to explain this further. You see, there was a great inflation in Ghana up to 2007 where cedis was almost worthless. People had to carry heavy notes about and calculations were hectic. At this time, not only was 1 Naira equal to 150 Cedis (it was actually more but I chose 150 for ease of calculation), 750 Cedis (5 Naira) could not buy anything at all due to inflation. So even though 750 Cedis was 5 Naira, it still could not buy what 5 Naira would buy in Nigeria. Salaries were also higher in Nigeria. So Nigeria generally had higher purchasing power. Now Ghana redenominated in July 2007 making 1Cedi (10,000 old Cedis) to be equal to 1 USD which was about 300 Naira (rounded to the nearest 100). While this made their life more convenient in terms of money management, it does not in any way affect Naira or change the fact that Nigeria still has higher purchasing power. This is because the 300 Naira (which then became 1 Cedi) could still purchase more than what 1 Cedi could buy. This is still the case till today. Therefore, while Cedi has more nominal value, Naira still has more economic value.

Clear?

abiolamitodun:
Well..I don't thoroughly understand u...Bit I will ask...Does that mean what I can buy with the 1000old cedi is thesame with what I will buy with the the prevent 1cedi or would be less that the present 1cedi

As at that July 2007, both had the same value. Of course, just like many other African currencies, cedis hasn't really been doing so great against the USD so presently, the value has also gone down a little (1USD is now more than 5 GHc). So the new 1GHc may not be able to purchase a foreign good it could purchase back in 2007 but this second part has little to do with the denomination cause even if they were still using the old currency, it would have still had the same effect.

Travel › Re: Has Any Nigerian Noticed This...what's This Coming by WoundedLamb: 2:15pm On Aug 08, 2020*

Same old story.

Cedi was redenominated (10, 000 old cedis = 1 new cedi) in 2007 thus making 1 cedi to be 0.9USD (all the way from 10,000USD). Does this mean their economy was better than that of the US then? No! That doesn't necessarily reflect the strength of the economy. Nigeria could easily knock off zeros from their Naira (say N100 will be N1000) and match up but does that really solve our economic problems? If N1000 could only purchase a fowl and after redenominating, the new N100 can still purchase only a fowl, then it's just an internal thing and doesn't reflect or change the true strength of your currency in the international market. If you were earning N5000 a week and still earns N500 a week after such redenomination, how has that really helped you?

Redenomination is a money management strategy aimed at ensuring portability, security and easier calculation. It doesn't reflect the value of the currency. What matters is the value (what money can buy) and the power (how much of it you have).

Thanks

Queenlovely:
2009 July 5th. one woman came to my gate crying bitterly to help save her son from police custody. it happened that the boy used to work as an entertainer at a local club I patronized.

the owner of the place chased him out and used junior staff to replace him. the boy was angry naturally and broke the man's head.

when I came,I paid the hospital bill and they let the boy go.

through my network that boy is going far in the commedy industry today

that's him and basket mouth

the first shall be the last
the race is not to the Swift

Naturally? So when you get angry naturally, you break people's heads? He broke the man's head for deciding who is promoted at his own privately owned place of work? Madam, regardless of how try to paint it, that guy is a tout and it's clear why his manager would rather elevate his junior colleague. There's no justification for his actions and it's extremely shameful if tried to shield him from the blames (as your post suggests) instead of admonishing him seriously. If it were you, would you promote such a terror to manage your business? People being promoted above their non-performing seniors is nothing new in privately owned organizations.

This news is only peculiar because it's the force and assigning a superior role to a junior officer would only lead to a clash who takes orders from who since the officer is not necessarily promoted but on an assignment.

Please, advise your friend.
