I have always said it that this government is run by insane people. How could you just wake up and make such a decision? I won't blame them, next election, if you like collect 5000 you will get worse treatment. Look at NIN, some idiot just woke up and made a decision without putting lots of things into consideration, so I arrive Nigeria now with no way to get a phone number. Many government decisions are never thought through. We deserve better than what we are getting, Nigerians are smart people, we should never settle for less , mediocrity should not be an option when choosing leaders. I apologize for being part of those that encouraged people to vote for Buhari during the first election, I encouraged over 80 of my employees in Lagos to vote for him, I thought he was the messiah. I later realized that this man really has nothing much to offer. Someone that thinks today is Monday 731 Likes 60 Shares |

Likely reason: 1. They are trying to frustrate one A-list politician who is intending to sell his crypto currencies to fund 2023 campaign. 2. They want to monopolize the crypto market as they did to the dollars. 3. The brain behind this ban is either daft or he/she is a stark illiterate. 4. They want to render a section of the country financially powerless. Either ways, this government is bent on destroying all contemporary advancement that we toiled hard to acquire.

When you have wicked illiterate goats as leaders, why won't they frustrate citizens from making money through innovative legitimate means they don't understand....Meanwhile they steal our money everyday through illegal means..Awon oloshi. . The richest man in the world is investing and trading crypto currency. ...recently Elon Musk promoted Dogecoin by tweeting it on his page and people from all over the world made money from the uptrend of the coin that was generated through that sentimental analysis...I did too. Cos I sold my money stored in USDT to buy Dogecoin...in less than 24 hours...I made 50% of my money and cash out again by selling the Doge to buy USDT. . Most institutional investors in Europe and America, I'm talking of banks and corporate investor brokers are embracing crypto investment and moving their portfolios to buy and trade cryto.....even rich men in America and Europe, China are moving their investment stored in gold into cryptocurremcy.. It shall not be well with this government that is determined to plunge everyone into poverty...work no dey, business failing everyday cos government is not supportive....if you know what's up, govt directly or indirectly has hands in the collapse of MBaforex...and now they are frustrating crypto trading. You see, if person no one do Yahoo cos u view it to be immoral, and u are also being frustrated from doing normal buying and selling of digital currency on the internet market...then maybe it's better for one to kuku resort to fraud or yahooyahoo... Useless government.!!!!!!! 184 Likes 10 Shares |
