You can imagine this lie. Majority - if not all- Hausas go back to the North during elections because they are registered to vote in their villages.

Good one. A man must stand for something or fall for everything.

What Kumuyi, Adeboye, Oyedepo, Bakare, Suleiman etc could not. Seems some people are not their brothers keeper.

What do you know? They're doing their own in their own ways and not advertising it.

There is no sight of resurrection of the dollar but a continuous shameful steep of the dollar to naira.

We are not an exporting country again. In fact, the problem of Nigeria isn't exportation of Agricultural produce as opined by experts;

Nigeria's superiority in cocoa production has been dwarfed by Ghana and Cote d voire. However,we produce cocoa, export it to foreigners, they process it to chocolates and make X5 of it, then we import it as chocolate. Countries that have no cocoa farms are making a lot from our cocoa.

We are among the top producers of cassava, we pride ourselves in it. Apart from fufu, and garri, what else? However, the Chinese come here, but cassava chips. They produced starch from it; Produced ethanol; produced starch etc.

Heard of an account of an Indian that came to Ogbomosho to buy Cashew worth 450million. They take it back, process it and get oil, they even roast it and get multiple folds from it yet the producers languishes in poverty.

As much as too much importation is doing much harm to us, the archaic exportation of raw products does greater harm without processing. We can keep counting!

Even crude oil is being exported without refined and we import refined one. Spending 1.4tr on subsidy and managing refineries that are not functional.

The problem remains- we import back our goods at premium price.

All the cocoa farmers in West and south have turned Okada riders in Lagos.

In sum, dollar will continue to rise in as much as we are not willing to diversify.

Agriculture isn't the way but processing of those products to get greater gains. Though this dollar scarcity is politically induced.

On point. May God give ears to those who have ears to hear.

If 20,000 students make a trip to the campus by public transport with an average of N200 daily, that's N4m.
If 20,000 students eat lunch at school at N200 daily, that's another N4m.
If 20,000 students photocopy 20 pages of document at N10 each daily, that's another N4m

By this, just 20,000 students inject N12m daily to the local economy.
During 3 months of strike, N1.08bn is lost by transporters, food vendors, business centres.etc.
Expand this to the actual number of students in the Universities in the country.

BUT WHO CARES?

Family members inclusive...it has a huge ripple effect... Those of us who lived around a university environment know it.

And after 3 months what will happen?

These people with their fire brigades approach to issues. Whatever happened to deep thinking to bring about long lasting solutions?

Just tired of this country.

Deep thinking FLEW outta the window with the Awos, Ziks, Balewas et al

So I have this married neighbour. When I bought my bus, he didn't congratulate me. He just asked me if the bus is mine, and I said yes, and he just walked away.

Now he wants me to lend him the bus to use and pack some of his belongings out of the compound.

If you were in my shoes, would you lend him the bus to use?

If you must give the bus, ensure you get a driver for it please.

Hmm
My people, my people

I have a dream that one day, vacancies would be publicised with requisite requirements like that of the VCs, into positions of:

*Local government chairman, councillors;
*Governors, deputies, members of state assemblies and commissioners;
*Members of national assembly;
*President, vice and ministers;
*Heads of MDAs;
*Members of boards;
* Ambassadors etc etc

I didn't tell u that u didn't "reply" my questions. I said you didn't "answer" my questions.

As VP, did osinbajo not contribute to, support and continuously defend the anti people policies of buhari?

Why did osinbajo stay till the end if you knew that the environment was unfriendly for him?

Okay. I have answered your questions.

On every front we are working hard to secure our nation. I expect increased coordination and cooperation among security agencies; the silo approach among the agencies must come to an end.

Washing our dirty linens in the public continues

Who wrote this speech and gave it such a conclusion? The little I know and teach about essay writing and communication skills clearly show that all the "beautiful achievements" in the preceding paragraphs are doubtful...Read between the lines

lexy2014:
It still doesn't answer the questions I asked:

As VP, did osinbajo not contribute to, support and continuously defend the anti people policies of buhari?

Why did osinbajo stay till the end if you knew that the environment was unfriendly for him?

I have replied your questions. Why not think critically on my response and compare it with what you have in mind. Shalom.

Parish, chairman of the house’s Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee, said he was trying to look at a tractor website, but stumbled into a porn site with a similar name and watched it for “a bit”.

A distraction cost him his job. May God deliver us from the distractions of suggestive and sexual pop ups being used by Satan to trap people.

lexy2014:
So u are one of the people who voted for buhari and am sure u were one of those who continuously provided excuses for his gross failures until u ran out of excuses.

Now u guys are back trying to package osinbajo with excuses to permit his failures

As VP, did osinbajo not contribute to, support and continuously defend the anti people policies of buhari?

Why did osinbajo stay till the end if you knew that the environment was unfriendly for him?

Unfortunately, I was disenfranchised from voting.

Osinbajo's contributions were within his assignments as the vice president...his office has no problem assigned to it to solve as a vice president. It's constitutionally a ceremonial position AFTER being used to win an election.

Thus, it would have been (politically) unwise for Osinbajo to resign as many people suggested then.

lexy2014:
Why did the rccg set up a politics and governance department?

How is "Osinbajo is eminently qualified by ALL standards to be the next president"?

If u say "so why should a Christian believer not be interested in coming forth and to shine as light in the midst of this dark world", how did osinbajo show this light?

Why did the rccg set up a politics and governance department? TELL ME WHY NOT?

How is "Osinbajo is eminently qualified by ALL standards to be the next president"? TELL ME HOW HE IS NOT?

If u say "so why should a Christian believer not be interested in coming forth and to shine as light in the midst of this dark world", how did osinbajo show this light? TELL ME HOW HE DID NOT SHINE AS LIGHT?

Flame77:
He's not the C in C. His position is ceremonial.

Heavily ceremonial!
Some of us who SAW something good in PMB immediately PYO was picked as his vice in 2015 COMPLETELY forgot that in the Nigerian political space the Deputy or Vice position is one of the most "powerless" position to hold after elections.

Four years later, we knew and could only pray for the man to survive to the end.

Pastor Olaniyan only expressed his PERSONAL opinion and not that of the RCCG which Pastor Adeboye aptly expressed two weeks ago.

However, Osinbajo is eminently qualified by ALL standards to be the next president.
Nigerians (so-called Christians inclusive), should stop being hoodwinked that those in other religions are not keenly pursuing leadership ambitions to further their religious beliefs and dominion even though it may not be realisable in Nigeria. The security architecture as well as other sectors in NIGERIA clearly shows that TODAY.

STOP attacking Osinbajo's presidential ambition because he is a Christian and a member of the RCCG.

If witches, wizards, cultists etc all want to be elected as leaders so why should a Christian believer not be interested in coming forth and to shine as light in the midst of this dark world.

AS NIGERIANS, we know the country is sitting on a keg of gunpowder especially with all the debts and we want to support the same people who have being gradually plunging the country to where it is today. We don't need those coming in to BURY the country.

I only pity a person who calls himself a true child of God and his fighting against a god-fearing leadership in the name of political correctness.

It's well with him and the new family.
I learn from this that many Nigerians, Nlers inclusive , believe strongly in the marriage institution and monogamy.
Yul might probably be regretting this 'mistake' of his. There are things eyes cannot see.

Good morning to them
Violence is a foolish solution to this problem.

“If we have politicians that have the fear of God — not just to go there to rip the treasury and oppress people — whether at presidential or gubernatorial level, I’m sure the country will be better for it.

I hope Prof. Osinbajo proves the Oba right on this statement when he becomes the president. Osinbajo's presidency should be about wide range reformation of governance systems as what the Oba of Benin rightly said SHOULD strongly apply to Local government administrations.

May God help him. This situation is a sad reminder that every man is on his own on this planet Earth.

Alexia20:
Hello house, the age of my spouse on our marriage certificate (church wedding cert) was wrongly captured (my own fault) and I will need to upload the certificate for visa application for spouse dependent visa application for my spouse to join me in uk asap. Common sense dictates that the age on marriage certificate should tally with her passport DOB .

Hence, I have approached the church for correction and they have refused blatantly on the ground that the mistake is not coming from them. So what other options do I have for proper documentation in this visa application,kindly advice.

Church wedding certificate is not a legal document unless it's the Federal Govt issued certificate which some churches are authorised to present to couples.

Sixfiguresmart:
No one is talking about the real issues in Nigeria. Poor people are left to die. The two boys sacked for dancing are now in Turkey. The man who made it happe isn't celebrated.

E-money only helps rich people. Taking Zazu to London as if Zazu with 50m naira deal with Odogwu cannot take himself.

Davido said he gave 262m naira to charity but no orphan has reveived a kobo.

Tinubu and all presidential aspirants did not mention the rise in human parts business. As if they are ignorant of all the murder cases in town.

Tinubu's speech is all about oil oil oil. I shake my head. This man has no single clue about how to work the biggest black human resource in the world. No single idea of how to transform the economy and reduce our reliance on oil.

People are screaming gay gay gay but look at how able bodied men willingly submit to homosexuality because of poverty. What I see aches my eyes.

Our girls are sold so cheap. Pre-teens are doing runs. Big men rape them and nothing is done. Girls are assaulted and no one can talk.

We dwell on politics rather than on ideas. Nigerian are quick to shut you down to protect grandfathers who buy them salt.

Nigeria at this stage does not have electricity. They always talk about dams output but we are not the only country with dams. Even Uganda is progressing better than us.

It appears like jokes but millions of lives are ruined daily. Many prostitutes roaming around would have had a career. Many thieves and thugs would have been gainfully hired and put to use.

All these stories about old men should cease. Time to pay attentions to ideas and innovative minds

OP, God bless you for saying the mind of some of us.

IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR ALL BUSINESS OWNERS.

If you're very serious about taking your business to the next level in 2022, then this is the most important letter you will read today and you need to pay close attention.

In 2018, my friend Femi lost a business deal worth millions of naira just because a prospective client couldn’t verify his company’s authenticity online. He had carried out a research on the internet and found nothing meaningful about my friend's business, so he lost interest.

In 2020 however, Femi was awarded three massive contracts that completely transformed the finances of his business. Do you know where these clients found out about his business?

Yes! You guessed right. Just as you may have thought, all of his new clients got to know about Femi's business through the internet.

THIS IS 2022 AND IF YOUR BRAND/BUSINESS DOESN'T HAVE A WEBSITE AND AN ONLINE PRESENCE, YOU'RE LOSING BOTH TIME AND MONEY!

Take quick notice of the following recent statistics:
✓ 81% of people research a business or service online before making a purchase decision.
✓ 56% of people stated that they won’t trust a business or company without a website.
✓ 79% of prospects who read online reviews about a business, believe them completely.

By not having a website, you are leaving so much money on the table. You are losing the opportunity to get in touch with potential customers. You're losing the opening to build credibility. You're losing the chance to take your business to the global stage.

Businesses that do not include having a website in their business plan will have a difficult time competing and growing in today's environment.

If you’re going to do one thing today to help your business become more successful, it is to get your business a website.

A high-quality website will offer your business the following advantages:
✓ Your potential customers are able conduct business whenever it is convenient for them. With a well-designed website, your business is open 24 hours a day.
✓ Consumers have more confidence in businesses that have a web presence. They can learn about your products and services, your company’s structure, your civic involvement, your awards and your customer-service policies.
✓ With a website, you have the opportunity to brand your business with your own domain name.
✓ Since websites can be designed to be fluid and interactive, you can learn about your target market and engage them in conversations about their needs and expectations.
✓ Websites help retain existing customers by providing easily-accessed customer service.
✓ There's a whole lot more.

Now, you may wonder how you could get your business a website and what it may cost. I have good news for you. There’s a brand that is currently running a 60% discount on their web design service. If you act fast, you can get your business a website with as little as 55K!

Starting at just 55k, they will build your website with free hosting and domain registration, optimize your website so it can easily be found on search engines like Google and also employ free copywriting services in the content of your website.

I like your advert. Coherent and logical arrangement of thought flow. Good and interesting use of language that persuades and very minimal errors.

However, you didn't do as you want us to do. We should have the name of your business or company and more importantly your WEBSITE for us to have a FIRST-HAND knowledge of all you have told us.

Nevertheless, you are able to convince me and not confuse me to want to go get a website for my business urgently

What shall it profit a man of he gains the whole world and loses his soul?

What shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

Thanks for this insight!
