Mumu talk every where.

Peeps, I'm sorry I'll have to come from the religious point of view here:

God created us equal but He made the man "the head" just as Christ is the head of the church.

The wife is the man's responsibility; for this reason, it is written in the Bible that a man that can't provide for his family is worse than an infidel.

Women respect your husband and you husband, love your wife,. So says the Bible.


The family is the first institution created by God and it is through this institution He intends to populate and replenish the earth, raising children that will be God fearing and responsible.
The Devil's assignment aside to kill, steal and destroy is also to attack the family institution.
One of illuminati's grand plan is to reduce world population and the feminism trend that is all around is part of the plan of the devil.

If you attack the family, the church will be weak, the children will be rebellious, the home will be in shambles and the world at large will be easy for the devil to manipulate.

Ever wondered why divorce and depression rate is higher in the developed countries despite the booming economy?

My dear feminist, every man is egoistic that is the reason a man that is in love with is wife, either responsible or not will go to any length to provide for is home simple because he doesn't want another man to take his place. God put the ego in man for a reason(to work harder to earn more for the family and also to defend his famiky) ever wondered why the man will lock-up the children and wife in the room while he goes out to face the armed robbers even if it a suicide mission.

The moment you challenge a man or you aim to be equal with him, trust me u'll never get the best from that man.

Women, learn to love, respect and trust your men.
You married him because you know he is capable to lead, don't drag the steering with him.

Offer words of encouragement, advice, support, take care of him because he is your big baby, and don't ever make him feel less than the man of the home.

Dear Nlanders, let's all pray against the wave of feminism and let's pray for more love and understanding in the home.

God bless you all

Uche pls Shut up,

must u answer everything?

see the yeye nollywood wey una dey, its crumbling fast and u are here fighting equality.

Men are women can NEVER be equal ,we all have our strenghts in diffrent areas, Unless u marry a Weak man.

crazymommy:
Uche jombo is contradicting herself...am not sure she understood the speech the woman made??Gender equality is not our problem,lack of RESPECT for one another whether male or female is the problem...if you respect a woman you will not treat her less ....when it turns to finance you claim "he is the man" when something else you claim "gender equality" that is hypocrisy...

dollyjoy:
I don't believe in equality, what matters most is respect and understanding in any form of affair. Women can never be equal with men,there is reason why God made man first. I think the sooner women accept their place in the society/men's life the better..

mandarin:
We must admit that even if some of Buhari's policies look late, there are clearer approach than many previous regimes. Statistics are no longer brandied to show feigned performances for political and cheap popularity. The growth often announced by NOI our Harvard Economist were often circulating the oil and gas sector while apart from Adesina's process on improving the Agric sector, there was no such thing as holistic growth.

Some people were critical of those who called GEJ regime a failure, needless will I say because his performance rating was like someone who made provision for his home like he earn 100 thousand when his real income is 1million naira, the gap is scandalous.
What the current window mean is that you can peep, at least you are free to but you must wear a face guard to be sure the new monster isn't roaring for an ugly catch.Your risk management, trends analysis and trading skills must be sharpened. The guard against spread and basing transactions on OTC if not undermined by the very power that run the system should guide against speculators. I see a 220-260 naira to a dollar by December 2016.

Why is it that Nigerian capitalists don't like competative markets? They have been so used to excess profits. Any marketer should be free to sell at their own price but it should not be more than N145 is the directive of federal government. NNPC is government owned, so if they sell lower than N145, it's still part of sacrifices that are meant to be paid to the masses by government.

BeeBeeOoh:
Kenneth Nwachukwu, the association’s national Secretary, said: “We are kicking against a directive by the Minister of State for Petroleum that we sell fuel for less than N145 per litre. We are all marketers and we get
supplies at the same source and at the same price. Why should we be made to sell at N130, N135 and N140 per litre while others sell for N145 per litre? With this pronouncement by the Minister, we foresee a looming fuel
scarcity because we may have to shut operations nationwide. ”
“We also see fuel scarcity because some unscrupulous marketers would rather get their supplies and sell in the black market at N145 than take the fuel to their stations and this will cause another crisis in the retail chain.”
“We have never seen this kind of policy. In fact it will increase corruption which government is fighting tooth and nail to stop. ”
“Some people are already bribing their way at the depots and officials there are selling to them at a price lower than the official one. These people can afford to sell at a price lower than N145. But we buy at official price and as such cannot be forced sell lower than N145,” he added.

I support the government on this. Lock up the 5% people if they can't keep their mouth shut. There is no absolute freedom anywhere in the world. For the fact that we are in democracy doesn't give anyone the right to criticize or condemn the government. Buhari is not the lilly livered GEJ who tolerates rumor mongers. The said man is even from the 5% region so his arrest is justifiable. God bless Buhari

Which Nigeria Police has been conducting their job professionally?

Is it the same Nigeria police we know, or another one?


Finally, Mr IG, i may not be a member of IPOB or MASSOB but i am an igbo girl. Precisely from Umuagu Asaba Delta State.

Your men shot and killed my people who were conducting a peaceful remembrance day! And all you could vomite is this nonsense?

God will kill you and your Generation, and anybody who supported or supports this grave wickedness against the Igbo race shall be doomed!

The almighty God shall render your lands desolate!

Useless People!

A top APC chieftain, who spoke to The AUTHORITY in confidence, described the judge’s ruling as “a calculated attempt to embarrass President Buhari and the APC”. He noted that: “We in APC find the ruling more embarrassing, considering that it came three days to our first anniversary in office,” adding that, “we strongly suspect that the said judge is working for the opposition (Peoples Democratic Party, PDP).”


Another APC chieftain blamed the President’s team of lawyers for “treating the matter with levity, having won the elections,” warning that such a suit was capable of throwing up unpleasant surprises for his party.
He said: “We are not lawyers and are therefore not in a position to know what is going on in the courts. I heard that our team of lawyers abandoned the matter, having not been paid by those who felt that the election had been won and lost. If we had a proactive Attorney-General of the Federation, he ought to have followed up and avoided this em­barrassment. It is even more embarrassing if the courts establish that President Buhari, who has been fighting corruption, has no school certificate.”
He continued: “This was the same way they assured us of victory in the governorship elections in Rivers, Delta and Akwa Ibom States. We all know that PDP end­ed up shocking us by snatching those prized states from us at the Supreme Court.
“The ruling by the Honourable Justice Adeniyi is too cold for comfort. DON'T FORGET THAT HE IS FROM THE SAME STATE WITH THE VICE PRESIDENT YEMI OSINBAJO. THE SOONER WE DEAL WITH THE MATTER, THE BETTER FOR US because the con­sequences will be too dire for us as we don’t know the interests at play here,” the party chieftain warned.

These people are hell bent on making the country ungovernable for buhari but all their tactics will be met with firm resistance. The more they agitate, the more they give the federal government the reason to continue to detain Nnamdi Kanu Cos his treasonous radio gave birth to this useless agitations. The IPOB are a confirmed terrorist organization cos their actions lately depicts that. They are behind the mask as Niger Delta Avengers, here they are exchanging gun fire with the military. By the time you attract military attention to your region, many igbos cheering them up will live in refugee camps. Most of you never experienced a full blown riot talkless of a war. You think The 1967 biafra war you read about is like a movie where the actors wake up at the end? I trust buhari to do the needful when the time comes. We will never tolerate biafra. The igbos wont be allowed to dominate the resources of the SS in the guise of biafra. One nigeria we shall remain forever. Amen

OrlandoOwoh:
Is EFCC probing the source of the campaign funds of PDP or the embezzlement of funds meant to combat Boko Haram that were diverted into running the campaign of PDP?

OrlandoOwoh:
We are talking about election here, not primaries. The party, not the candidate, is responsible for the money to run campaigns. So far, there is no evidence that the money used in Buhari's campaign was corruptly gotten. This is unlike that of PDP that the money meant to fight Boko Haram was traced to the campaign's accounts of PDP.

OrlandoOwoh:
Where is your evidence that Buhari got funds from those states?

Hello fellow NLs, am at a cross road here....I have been dating this Igbo guy for over 5yrs now, am Yoruba tho but we both didn't see it as a barrier what matters to us is the love and connection between us.....he is well known by my family and accepted too but the problem is his parents...his brothers and sisters are indifferent about it...but his parents frowns against any of them marrying outside Igbo...his kid sis is over 30 and still single cos of this issue.


Wont I be treated like an outcast?? My kids?? Whose MIL or FIL doesn't show up for their son's wedding?? She won't show up for my 'omugwo'??

A part of me thinks I can handle the situation, but then another part is asking me to move on.

The ECOWAS countries you mentioned here (Senegal, Ivory Coast & Ghana) are already visa free (up to 90 days). Kenya is visa on arrival.
Other countries worth adding to your list include:
Egypt (3rd largest economy in the continent)
Morocco
Mauritius
Seychelles.

JayJustus:
Mauritius is visa on arrival for 14 days while Seychelles is visa free for 90 days provided you show at least $100 per day, return flight and accommodation (which is pretty normal for any country eh)...I think Morocco will be added to our list because Moroccans can visit Nigeria without a visa so I think it will be a reciprocal thing...

BeastAmbition:
When will nigeria start having visa-free pact with country like England, Holland, U.S.A, and lot.

Keneking:
Really wish it can be the following States:

- South Africa
- Kenya
- Algeria
- Senegal
- Ivory Coast
- Ghana
- Angola
- Ethiopia

The late President Umaru Musa Yar'Adua became Nigeria's president on May 29 2007. As at the time, he met an external debt of about $3,348.22 billion, and foreign reserves of about $45.0 billion and also a growing oil price of about $90/barrrel.

The Nigeria's Bonny Light Crude Oil Spot Price FOB which was $95.16 per barrel in January 2008 rose to $146.15 in July 2008 before declining to $76.24 per barrel by October 17 2008. Thus, within four months, it had lost 50% of its peak price.

Within this period, Yar'Adua was able to grow the external reserves to about $64 billion.

During the global financial crises, Nigeria capital markets, and banking industry were hit, coupled with the dwindling oil prices.The nation‘s foreign reserves decelerated from $64
billion in August 2008 to $47 billion as at March 2009, a 27% decrease, as the government had to resort to the ECA which is also part of the national reserves.

However according to records by CBN; Nigeria’s growth trajectory was not significantly impaired. The real Gross domestic Product (GDP) growth rate which averaged 6.29 percent between 2004 and 2007 declined marginally to 5.99 per cent in 2008 rising thereafter to 6.9 percent in 2009. This is often attributed to the impressive performance of the non-oil sector, particularly, agriculture and the continuous implementation of sound macroeconomic policies.
The external reserves was, however, still able to support at least 15 months of imports.

In conclusion, the foreign reserves played a major factor in the survival of the economy before the early dismiss of President Yar'Adua.

Goodluck Jonathan's takeover;

After President's Yar'Adua's Dismiss, President Jonathan took over May 05 2010. He met a foreign reserve of about $47. 7 billion and external debt of about $3.94 billion Dollars.

While Jonathan was unable grow the foreign reserves like his predecessor during the oil boom remains unclear.

However the immeidate past Finance minsiter in her response to Obosanjo's accusations about Jonathan squandering $55bn said below


Read more at: http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/01/55bn-got-wrong-fg-replies-obasanjo/

In conclusion again, according to Okonjo here, The national reserves played a major role in defending the economy.

[b]THE REALITY TODAY

Buhari met $32 bn as external reserves and $63 billion esternal debt even though Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, promptly rose to the defence of Mr. Jonathan’s administration, saying of the $63 billion debt, the administration only incurred $21.8 billion. How the external debt rose to an alarming rate remains unclear. Buhari also met a subsidy debt of about N600bn. How subsidy claims rose from N320bn to a whooping 2 trillion Naira under his administration remains unclear till this day.

Buhari also took over with oil price selling below $50/barrel whch later dwindled to as low as $28/barrel.
The price of crude remains below $50/barrel today.

The current oil production rate have also dwindled with the renewed activities of some misguided, and deluded criminals in the name of Avengers in the ND region.

FINAL CONCLUSION

In conclusion and in the reality today, President Buhari have been trying his best to move the nation forward. Alot of leakages have been plugged, and a solid foundation is being layed down. It will be hypocritical and unfair for anyone not to expect the economy woes of today with the above analysis. With the indications above it is not out of place to say President Buhari inherited a virtually empty Treasury.

I urge every right thinking Nigerian, to criticise this government in good faith and not born our of tribal hatred or the hangover of the fact that the last government was booted out of office. The Economy woes experienced today should be expected by every right thinking Nigerian.

Even the immediate past Finance minister celebrated by some section of the country, warned severally about a very tough econmy.

Lets pass a vote of confidence in President Buhari by clicking Like!!!!

According to her between 2007 and 2011, a debt of $17.3 billion was recorded while between 2012 and 2015, the debt incurred stood at $18.1 billion.
She explained that the leap in the debt profile between 2012 and 2015 was triggered off by the 53 per cent wage increase implemented by the late Umaru Yar'Adua administration in a fell swoop.
This, she said, skyrocketed government's borrowing from N524 billion to over N1 trillion in order to meet the salary increase, adding that the country's domestic debt increased by $18.1 billion mainly because of the 53 per cent increase in the pay of civil and public servants.
The minister stated that at the time of the salary increase, she was still with the World Bank, adding that she had written and warned on the consequences of acquiescing to such a huge increase.
Absolving the Jonathan administration of blame, the minister said the government had in deed taken a careful and meticulous approach to managing the nation's debt, noting that the present administration, for the first time in the nation's history, retired a domestic debt of N75 billion in 2013.
Commenting on the $63.7 billion debt stock, the minister said $9.7 billion or 15 per cent is external while $54 billion or 85 per cent represents domestic debt. She added that the states' share of the $9.7 billion external debt is 33 per cent while the states' share of the $54 billion is 20 per cent.
