Business / Re: Naira Redesign Won't Reduce Inflation Or Strengthen Naira by xandy84: 12:54pm On Nov 08, 2022 |
Theoretically, that is a good idea but we both know there are factors that makes it impossible like volatility of naira, lack of trust of average Nigerians towards the government. For example, will you keep 90 naira in saving or convert it to $$ and hold on to it? Be sincere please.. You possibly will change your cash to $$ and thereby increase the demand for $$ and weakens the naira more. Low value naira increase the price of goods and services, and average Nigerians becomes poorer cos their naira hold less value compare to few months ago. Zimbabwe, Venezuela had tried and failed woefully and I see the same for Nigeria cos our economic factors are almost same. Peterobi90: 1 Like |

Did you read the report by Bloomberg that Naira is the worst performing currency globally as at yesterday? Production of goods and services strengthen value of a currency and not changing the design or color of it. $$ is the most hoarded currency in the world cos every corner of the planet has it stockpile and the it's still increasing in value.

Programming / Re: With The Recent Lay-off And Hiring Freeze, How's It At Your Workplace? by xandy84: 12:39pm On Nov 05, 2022 |
I own my business and sales plummet drastically. In the average, $2500 weekly and most times, more but last two weeks, you hardly find work cos demand slows down and trucking don't go out often and if they don't go out often, it will not breakdown and hence, no need for repair guys. Period like this is the reason to always have savings that you can fall back on. 2 Likes |

Business / Re: 15-Year-Old ₦500 Note Currently In Circulation (Pictured) by xandy84: 6:25pm On Nov 01, 2022 |
Is there a law that prevent people from having a billion naira under their beds? Government can prevent hoarding by guaranteeing deposits to certain amount but people still decide what they want to do with their money either deposit it in a bank or put it under their beds. For example, there is a law in US that guarantee all deposits upto $250k in case anything happens to the banks. That law encourage people to deposit against keeping it at home. Mercury12: |

You asked a valid question. Money does not expire, so what's wrong with money made in 2007? Nothing absolutely. I believe Nigerian government always love throwing controversial topics out there to the populace to distract from their poor performance. The year a currency was made has zero relevance but the purchasing power of the currency is what matters. Buddha3: 1 Like |

There are holes in the dude story. His father was 95 when he died which means he must have retired before he sent them to school and if he is retired, he should have lots of business and property when he died. People who paid 40 million for a child to school abroad has 500 millions in investment and property scatter everywhere for Naija though I might be wrong. kay29000: 1 Like |

I am not being mean here but the dude is the architect of his misfortune. According to him, his sponsor was his late father who was 95 years of age... It's grace to be 70 years and when your sponsor is 95 years, common sense implies you prepare yourself cos he is not going to live till 195 years. tensazangetsu20: 4 Likes 2 Shares |

Blame game everywhere. Do America make Buhari president? America does not have the capacity to make anyone president of another country. America is struggling with misinformation amongst it citizen and does not even have time to fix that. The only people who can make Atiku, Tinubu or Obi president are Nigerians and they have choice to make and hope they make the right one cos suffer dey Naija. owobokiri: |

Most politicians does not store their loot in Naira cos of it volatility. They store their loot in $$ and can't easily convert old naira to $$. CBN is the most confused entity in Nigeria...

UK, US and Canada did not ban betting and their economy is growing that they have too many jobs around. The government should regulate and not ban it cos people make a living in those bet. On the mother that left her son on betting shop as collateral, it show she is a looser all round and deserves to be locked up. There are people who leave their children inside car and go inside a club to go have fun but when they are done, jail is certain. Bornbiafra: |

You're right but no president ever make real effort to restructure the country. Some part of the country are scared of restructuring but if a president shows them the benefits of restructuring, they will fall in line. It's hard for governors, legislative arm to go against widely held public opinion and all Nigeria need is a president that will sell the benefits of restructuring to every geopolitical zones ElSudani: |
Foreign Affairs / Re: Photos Of Putin’s Newly Mobilized Army Of Aged And Unfit Men Being Sent To Fight by xandy84: 2:02pm On Sep 29, 2022 |
Ukraine never force their citizen to fight. You join the volunteer force to defend motherland and not conscripted by fire or force. There are Ukrainian-American to left Yankee to help out at home. Able-bodied Russians and running out of the country to avoid going to war front cos the war is needless and it's death sentence. The war momentum is with Ukraine and sending poorly trained and equipped solders to the front will only make it worse off. Russian intelligence underestimate the resilience of Ukrainian and over-estimate there own capabilities. The longer Putin wait to call off the war, the likely this will be the repeat of the 90's when the defeat by Afghanistan accelerated the collapse of the Soviet union. arzizhy: |

Business / Re: CBN Raises Interest Rate To 15.5% To Curb Rising Inflation by xandy84: 4:52pm On Sep 27, 2022 |
Raising interest rates is two edge sword. Naira value will appreciate but it will kill existing jobs and probably the economy will slide into recession. America is in already in recession due to interest rate hike. I know people who had job offer withdrawal by companies and there is hiring freeze in most companies now. Alexas58: 2 Likes |

Time to pay up. Reason why fraud is ugly in Yankee when compared to Nigeria. You get to pay the money back with interest, go to jail and still can't find job after serving your time. Some States like Connecticut still take it a bit further by asking you to pay for the money the State spend on you while you was locked up.... Don't do the crime if you can't do the time....
