Politics / Re: Prepare For Thunderstorms, Hail, And Lightning Across The Country - FG Warns by asksteve(m): 9:17am On Sep 30
So what has the government put in place to assist the citizensery in dealing with the thunderstorm or is it to just inform us and leave us to our fate.
Have water ways been cleared to ensure free flow of water, have all blocked channels been cleared cos if all these are done there will be no need for all these warnings.
All is well.

How about Dangote crashing the price of cement, NNPC crashing the price of petroleum products and CBN crashing the overly high exchange rate?
Why not start with these and see if everything else will not follow?

Another relative of Uncle Lai,

Shameless politicians, networks that has continuously degraded in quality of service for the past four months both in calls and data.

If the cables were cut was it fixed during the protest for service to be restored?

Or it fixed itself?

God save Nigeria from these leader without conscience.

Politics / Re: Proposed Minimum Wage By NLC Across Geopolitical Zones by asksteve(m): 5:01am On Mar 08
Emzedz:
The cost of a brand new prado jeep is more than 100million naira. Fed. Govt paid for each for senators, house of reps members, ministers, n other head of government agencies.
Don't be deceived F.G. has the money to pay but as usual what we will see is renewed shege.

We are our own problem in this country.
Can u imagine people are already helping the FG to trim the proposed wage to 100k on the excuse that there is no money.

Do they know the take home pay and allowances of president, senators, reps, governors down to councillors many of whom are either school cert or pry school cert holders?

Do they know the rate at which the government in the last 9yrs has hiked the cost of living in this country without comisorate wage increase?

For me I have no issue with the proposed figures, by the NLC leadership even though I don't like their betrayer style when it come to fighting for the workers they represent cos this issue should have hit front burner since 2016 or 2017.

It is either the government pays the said wage or bring down the cost of living to comisorate with whatever amount they propose and if the cost of living should increase again so will the wage of the civil servant.

Thank u.

Events / Re: About To Cancel A Marriage Scheduled To Hold On Sunday. by asksteve(m): 4:25am On Nov 18, 2023
galileo180:
Your honest and sincere opinions are highly needed on this.

My brother is about to get married on Sunday and just today, the girlfriend has been threatening to call off the marriage over a little issue. The issue being my brothers' refusal to travel back to our village with her since he needs to be at work on Tuesday, his reason being that there is no movement on Mondays and he is a Banker and needs to be present to open Vault on Tuesday.

Please in your sincere opinion, is my brother wrong and is it a good reason for the girl to threaten him with calling off the event.

Mods please help a brother, please push to front-page as it needs urgent attention.


Didn't they court?
How was she during that period?
So anytime he cannot fulfill or meet her desire na threat him go dey receive.
Na she wan marry am or na him wan marry her?
If he knows what is good for him let him postpone the wedding for like six months and see her character before going ahead or cancelling cos it seems they don't know each other that much.

Politics / Re: Tinubu Has Solution For Impact Of Subsidy Removal, Says Oshiomhole (Video) by asksteve(m): 11:28am On Jun 05, 2023
LeoDeKing:
It appears the only solution to this issue of fuel subsidy removal is increase in wages.

But when wages are increased, prices of commodities will respond in the usual language which in effect dampens the increase in wages.

NLC will then start negotiating for another salary increase and if govt obliged again, the cycle is repeated.

We expect govt officials to be resourceful rather than simply following popular demands for wage increase as that will in effect portray them as just empty opportunists struggling to just control the resources.

Get experts in relevant fields to address this issue, I don't subscribe to increase in wages.

You didn't consider the private sector that employs about 65% of the total labour force n if they will be able to implement the minimum wage as NLC might get.

Neither did u take into consideration the army of unemployed that constitutes about 70% of the total population n how they will cope?

This removal will only lead to hyper inflation, which will lead to nothing else but anarchy as the citizens are already flat on their stomach as regards the harsh economy n now this...

God help us all.

Why can't our so called leaders make our villages OK so they can go on vacation within Nigeria instead of going to spend our stolen wealth in another mans country thereby developing them while setting us backward with each passing regime.

And they flaunt these pictures right before our eyes and we hail them.

Don't they know that developed place they run to for vacation is someone's village?

If the leaders of those place are like them will they be going there for vacation?

This is what u get when people not worthy of being followers are made leaders

One down. More to go down. The illegality of the Lagos State Government empowering mc Oluomo without regards to the Laws that established and regulates the activities of Trade Unions in Nigeria is absolutely a facist move.

Little wonder a thug and good for nothing miscreant could boldly come out during the last election to threaten Nigerians on whom to vote and not to vote for.

Rascals, no apologies.

If the principal of these Set of dangerous Power seekers is allowed to go scot free with the stolen mandate, Nigerians should forget the essence of their freedom . Tinubu will make Buhari a saint.

They are just preparing Oluomo for federal appointment.

Health / Re: Man Slumps And Dies By Roadside In Port Harcourt (Photos) by asksteve(m): 7:11pm On Apr 12, 2023
MemoriesAndMe:


Only scientific reasons? You didn't even consider the economic and spiritual reasons people slump and die.

Some people haven't eaten for days because of the state of the economy and may convert it to fasting in this fasting period for Christians and Muslims alike.

If that person dies without any meal in his stomach, do we blame scientific reasons for that too?

He said other reason can include which gives room for u to add yours as u did.
The basic thing is we should change the karma mentally some of us have as it does the society no good

Wagwanbrethren:

What nonsense talk is this? I thought you claim to work in the lab, or some kind of doctor? 🤷‍♂️
There are many scientific explanations for why people slump and die, and one of the most common is because of a heart attack. When the heart is not getting enough blood, it can start to malfunction and eventually stop working, which can lead to death.

Other reasons for people to slump and die can include stroke, cancer, and respiratory failure. Not aware of that?

Thanks for your thoughtful response.
It is difficult to imagine in this age and time that when such happens a sane person will ascribe it to ikarma at work.

No wonder people were busy taking pictures and doing videos to post online instead of rushing him to the nearest health facility.

We don't value life in this country until it is our own at stake, which is why the police who are partially the cause of this inhumane behaviour will arrest, detain and torture a good Samaritan that tries to help all in the name of investigation.

Salary will be increased

Saying salary increment is easy but before we shout further, what percentage of Nigerians is gainfully employed?

Will rhe increment be for only public or both public and private sector employees?

Can the private sector be able to sustain the wage increment without going bankrupt or shutting down?

How about the unemployed, the aged, etc?

How will they cope or what will be done to cushion the effect of the subsidy removal on them?

These are some of the questions that needs to be answered before we talk of salary increasement.

These protesters,
Are they not affected by this so called cashless policy?

Are they not affected by fuel scarcity?

Instead of protesting so we can put food on our tables, they are trying to take us back to where exactly?

The elections has come and gone, it was rigged does not mean your candidate won.

We know the massive rigging that went on in the south east and some other places too so none of them is a saint.

Though only a few are happy with the outcome of the elections we have taken it in good faith and moved on.

The court is there to seek redress so I don't want to hear interim at all.

The only apology we want is for ATM machines to be dispensing new notes.

Just make the new notes available.

See how people are locked outside bank as if they are beggers just because they want to collect their own monies they deposited.

Did u do any studies in the impact of this so called policy on the lives of Nigerians before going ahead to implement it?

You cannot replace one with the other.

If u want to give arms, quietly do and don't call it tithe.

Likewise if u want to give tithe quietly do and don't call it arms giving.

Mind u both are not a prerequisite for us to make heaven as we have somehow abandoned the more important things and keep laying emphasis on tithing and arms giving.
