Dollar is at 600 Naira, they buy diesel close to 700 bucks per liter, there is no light to power their equipment, so they'd be running 18hrs per day averagely on Generators, unfriendly business environment plus Taxes, the Agbada wearing Gangsters are telling them to reduce prices? Clowns.

You guys should report things the way they are in other not to give a false impression. Please note soludo only said starting from April 4th so why not wait until after April 4th before reporting such

Don't mind them, and why the emphasis on Anambra, Ebonyi people generally don't observe the sit at home, I believe from 4th, activities will pick up gradually on Mondays.

This old man and his evil party. It is only when it comes to the negative that they will start comparing developed countries with Nigeria. But when it comes to the good things in developed countries like, security, steady electricity, water, good health system, near perfect roads, jobs, efficient transport system and good educational institutions that is devoid of strikes, they will start forming dumb. UK and US will soon start working on how to cussion the effect, like the did during COVID. Lai Mohamed and his people will be comparing

When you talk against fraud and Yahoo Yahoo and the serious negative impact it has on innocent Nigerians looking beyond the shores of the country for businesses and Jobs, you'd be attacked. There is no greater factor that has literally hindered Nigerians from getting remote jobs, other than this Yahoo Yahoo of a thing.

You should be going there with a lawyer not crying like a peasant. Nigerians, when you know your rights, fight for heaven's sake. Fight back, fight hard, fight rough

But why must the Authorities keep frustrating hard working, business owners, why?!. What is wrong with those people, to do business in Nigeria is stressful already, yet some certain set of people are hell bent on frustrating one. Because he didn't part with 11 million they now want to delay a perishable good, in order to get back at them, and people will say Nigeria will be okay. Omo

He had a case that he was found guilty and EFCC, as in Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, prosecuted him and Judge found him guilty and told him to pay 10 million Naira in restitution, and you think he was found guilty of what? You see this universe...

Business / Re: Are We In Famine Period In Nigeria? by MARKone(m): 7:11pm On Mar 18, 2022
It's every where. Importers are not finding it funny now, commercially imported goods would soon be out of the reach of Nigerians with the new increase in import duties, the Naira is weak, almost useless. Diesel is almost 800 Naira per litre, no light. Buhari is in UK cruising, his wife in Dubai shopping.

*FOOD FOR THOUGHT*

Today 18/03/2022, the exchange rate:

£1 = ₦783
$1 = ₦550
€1 = ₦670

42 years ago, precisely on 01/03/1980 the exchange rate was:
$1 = 0.78k

Are you surprised?

We were far more productive in 1980 than we are today

In 1980 the key reasons for economic growth were as follows:

1) We were a net exporter of refined petroleum products. Today we import all our refined petroleum products.

2) We rode in locally assembled cars, buses and trucks. Peugeot cars in Kaduna and Volkswagen cars in Lagos.

Leyland produced trucks/buses in Ibadan and ANAMCO in Enugu also produced buses and trucks.

Steyr in Bauchi produced our Agricultural tractors.

And it was not just Assembly, we were producing many of the components:

Vono products in Lagos produced the vehicle seats.

Exide in Ibadan produced the batteries, not just for Nigeria but for the entire West Africa.

IsoGlass and TSG in Ibadan produced the windshields.

Ferrodo in Ibadan produced the brake pads and discs

Dunlop produced Tyres in Lagos and Mitchelin Tyres were produced in Port Harcourt.

And I mean tyres produced from rubber plantations located in Ogun and Rivers State.

3) We were listening to Radio and watching television sets assembled in Ibadan by Sanyo.

4) We were using refrigerators, freezers and Airconditioners produced by Thermocool and Debo.

5) We were putting on clothes produced from the UNTL Textile Mills in Kaduna and Chellarams in Lagos.

They were Not from imported cotton but from cotton grown in Nigeria.

6) Our water was running through pipes produced by Kwalipipe in Kano and Duraplast in Lagos .

7) Our toilets were fitted with WC produced in Kano and Abeokuta.

cool We were cooking with LPG gas stored inside gas cylinders produced at the NGC factory in Ibadan.

9) Our electricity was flowing through cables produced by the Nigerian Wire and Cable, Ibadan; NOCACO in Kaduna and Kablemetal in Lagos and Port Harcourt.

10) We had Bata and Lennards Stores producing the shoes we were putting on

The shoes were not from imported leather but from locally tanned leather in Kaduna.

11) We were mainly flying our Airways, (the Nigeria Airways), to most places in the world.

The Nigeria Airways was about the biggest in Africa at the time.

12) Most of the foods we ate were grown or produced in Nigeria.

We were producing all of the above and many more in 1980

Today, we import almost everything.
Isn't that alarming?

There lies the source of the terrible exchange rate we are experiencing today and everyone reading this has a critical role to play in reversing this very UGLY trend.

We have been talking about these problems and more for ages.

It is not enough for us to complain about the exchange rate or point out what others are not doing or are failing to do. The key questions are:
1. What are we producing now?
2. What role are our so- called Leaders/ Politicians of today playing? We are forever shying away from responsibility whereas it is a stack reality and if we don't deal with it, it won't go away. In fact it will get worse.

Are we ready to deal with it?

truthCoder:
not so smart...

why did he wait to attend the hand-over?

Ego possibly...he was feeling untouchable like most 'big men' in Nigeria.

He should have travelled first to a decoy country, say UK like two weeks ago, hopped to his safe location privately with strict instructions even to his wife and close associates not to disclose, attend the hand-over via zoom and monitor events for the next two months.

Everyone would be thinking he is in UK while he actually is in a remote log cabin near a lake in Florida with just his most confidential aide who will handle grocery. All his phones and aides would be with his wife in UK. All calls would be picked and enquirers would be informed that "Oga is having a 2 weeks dry fasting and is in his room, not to be disturbed"

How do these people become our leaders?


It wouldn't have worked, they've been monitoring his movement for some time now.

How is this being brilliant? That he bought some info/codes off the dark web, is that brilliance, or that he was intending to use said info to ripoff the US government translates to being brilliant. He is stupid and a dunce, any smart person should know to be careful after a plea deal with the US government. He thinks he is in Kirikiri Nigeria.
