Firstly, I no rate them @ all. Secondly I hope it's not our collective asset that was used to pay for the trip of some delinquent adults who are only doing this for the gram. What is the value of inviting them? 1 Like |
Politics / Re: Canada Fines Binance Over $4 Million For Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing by Buccalcavity2: 3:52pm On May 10 |
They've left Canada. I have written about this before. I cringe at how we tolerate corporate misdemeanor in Nigeria in the name of let FDI grow. Can landmark build a structure into the beach which was not included in her Title in America or even SA? Can Binance evade arrest/jump bail in America or Canada (even if nobody is watching him)? Will MTN repatriate funds anyhow, even in SA, like they do in Nigeria? The one that vexes me the most is when a company commits offense in Nigeria and then is fined in its home country for the offence committed in Nigeria? No be juju be that! Yet you see some citizens say don't touch them to allow FDI, all for mundane interests! Please read about how SA dealt with KPMG wrt Gupta family deals. See as US dey handle Tiktok (same as how China handles YouTube). Yet people wan die because Buhari questioned Twitter. Here big fours, IOCs just dey lounge... You can imagine some overseas coy dey fund banditry for mineral mining in North Central. Haba! 4 Likes |

Politics / Re: Ben Murray-Bruce Talks About The Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway by Buccalcavity2: 5:16pm On May 05 |
Nightwolf1:Bro, No need explaining. I picked the elements of your argument to show you the hypocrisy that: 1. All roads don't have to be completed before new one starts. 2. Nigeria funded an expensive project when DSR was over 100%, why not now when her DSR is under 65%. 3. That an alternative road exist is not enough argument to stop new one, citing 2nd Niger bridge. Anything short, we are being hypocritical. Lastly, Dave Umahi took his time to explain that this is the cheapest road the govt is handling at the moment wrt cost per km for its size. Nobody has contested that! Yes it is 700km and overall cost is more. Nigeria doesn't have to complete it in 1 year, you know about project & finance scheduling. Common! We need constructive opposition to APC, you guys just dey make them shine! 2 Likes |
Politics / Re: Ben Murray-Bruce Talks About The Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway by Buccalcavity2: 4:41pm On May 05 |
Nightwolf1:I simply picked on the elements of your argument (as an emergency lover of Nigeria). All existing projects must be finished before this starts? Nigeria doesn't have money for this? There's an existing road? They all stand logic on its head. If you couldn't complain when that was constructed, how did you find your voice now? Is there more to this coastal road project? 2 Likes |
Politics / Re: Ben Murray-Bruce Talks About The Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway by Buccalcavity2: 2:22pm On May 05 |
Nightwolf1:But it was ok to build 2nd Niger bridge when there was an existing road? Why were all existing roads not fixed before 2nd Niger bridge? Ibadan to ilorin, Lagos to Ibadan (amongst many) were both started before the bridge and are not yet completed to date. Yet it was constructed in a tenure when debt service ratio was over 100% @ a time! Where was this argument then? I honestly don't understand the hullabaloo about the coastal way. I'm indifferent coz nobody is arguing with data,; just emotions. 10 Likes 2 Shares |

It's the reason I don't fully support any of these ethnic nations agitation. If your are familiar with your history, you'll know that Yoruba, Biafra,ISIS,Nigerdelta nations will ultimately be besset with same challenges as Nigeria. As those hidden crevices within ethnic groups will be widen once a nation is formed. It should be a last resort! 1 Like |

Politics / Re: Will You Go To A Resort That Has A Highway Running Directly In Front Of It? by Buccalcavity2: 2:27pm On May 01 |
EmmyMaestro:Does he own the beach? Did he pay for access to the beach? I don't get it! It's first illegal. Second,there are several resorts that are bounded by a major road. Please travel. I just came back from a vacation in Bahamas. Where I boarded the ship in Florida has a resort which is bounded by a major road leading to their airspace museum, no biggie. 3rd, why is it that we only make noise when houses of the rich are destroyed? Just last few weeks, Ebonyi and Anambra destroyed houses, why no vitriol again the government then. Lastly, have we thought about how many businesses will spring up around that coastal corridor too because of that project? Maybe we should check the definition of a resort and not equate it to a beach side. 5 Likes 1 Share |

Politics / Re: Nigeria Plans A $10 Billion Diaspora Fund To Attract Dollar Inflows by Buccalcavity2: 1:43pm On Apr 29 |
IfnobeGod20:No vex. Foreign reserve is for Photoshop? Countries that settle from foreign reserves are unproductive? You are right to ask "who do you like this" Your neighbor Ghana in 2023 couldn't settle her obligations (defaulted) and sought lifeline from world Bank to restructure. All your naija banks took the hit in their financials, yet not 1 article have I read in the papers where a citizen dissuaded investors from her country's instruments. Not 1! But to you it's no big deal to settle with FR. Listen to yourself - waiting for your country to fail so you can be proven right. Yet you have submitted no fact to support your biases. onye mere gi ihe a? What sort of politicking is this? |
Politics / Re: Nigeria Plans A $10 Billion Diaspora Fund To Attract Dollar Inflows by Buccalcavity2: 6:58am On Apr 29 |
IfnobeGod20:You are the one that is fixated on your conclusions. I have stated historical perspective. The last Nigerian Eurobond issued (issued 2022 Dec) was fully subscribed. The specific risk element you are alluding to are country&repayment risk and I have told you to cite example of Nigeria defaulting. None! Nigeria sufficiently displayed her capacity in 2024 to settle all due obligations (in local and foreign currencies). So what empirical evidence do you have to dissuade investors? None, except emotions! The next Eurobond is in June'24 and we shall see. And with the inflow of institutional funds into capital market in recent times (please fact check with market volume, demonstrating confidence), my guess is that the Eurobond issuance is gonna be successful. FDIs are long term funds that do not work like plug and play you described, anywhere in the world. I'm not against your hesitation to invest (it's your right) but please have reasonable basis. Not pedestrian gists; which is why I desire quality opposition to the current government. |

IfnobeGod20:My comment was for people who are familiar with Eurobond. My last check shows Nigerian Eurobond was fully subscribed! Nay sayers (whose candidate lost) can keep being censorious. |
Politics / Re: Nigeria Plans A $10 Billion Diaspora Fund To Attract Dollar Inflows by Buccalcavity2: 9:42pm On Apr 28 |
People just wake up and criticize their country mindlessly just because their candidate or kinsman lost an election. How is this different from any Eurobond? And since it's existence, have you ever heard that Nigeria defaulted on its obligations? I desire quality opposition not all these censorious Dundeez! |

Daystar7:Mugu! State the tax that was increased then since you are sure that tax was increased. You just heard that in your union and ran with it? Beer parlour gist? Just read the article and stop embarassing yourself. VAT is still 7.5% today. |

Cantonese:Simple: The Governors are lazy! That's the point. Explain how Osun has more revenue than Cross River, Katsina. Right before our eyes Ogun state left Ondo State in terms revenue potential. Nobody is expecting every state to be equal but all governors should be tasked to be productive. It's inexplicable that you govern a state for 8years and revenue drive remained relatively stagnant. You don't have any project to impact potential prosperity of the state. Common! |

Cantonese:Guys stop making excuses for failure! If it was by state creation period. Osun will be happy to always under perform Katsina in IGR! Lagos growth is measurable and there are other miracles around us (maybe not profound enough to excite some of us but still progress) I lived in Lagos during BAT and Anambra during PO. difference is clear! 6m turning to 14b monthly is not from wishful thinking nor from predecessor. Ogun,Kaduna... did same right before us. But for Soludo, what will you call Anambra development plan when our brother left? Which Awka became beautified during PO? What project was giving citizens hope to increase economic fortune of the state (GDP or IGR) when PO was there. Like LCC Lekki road in Lagos, Eko Atlantic city, free trade zone... |

Daystar7:I shudder at how you write a lot of nonsense confidently! You're clueless yet you are the most active! So high income earners don't pay higher taxes in Nigeria (but only in UK US...)? VAT is not related to price of goods?what is VAT then? So what is inflation? Was tax rate (either VAT or other ones) increased in Nigeria? So US, UK, Canada that recently experienced high inflation slashed their VAT equivalent because there's inflation? Your comrades also writing balderdash! Like supporters, like candidate! Empty! |
