Everyone is experiencing hard times under this present Government that keeps churning out/experimenting with policies that continue to impoverish us the more. The members of the National Assembly are not making matters easy for us at all as its clear it is a rubber stamp body always ready to approve, within the shortest time, any Bill/request presented by the President.

Now we have faceoffs between cabals that don't want us to breathe easy. Dangote is not having the best of times with the cabals in the Government who are hell bent on his refinery not producing PMS for the local market because it will mean the end of the fraudulent/ hazardous importation of PMS being perpetrated for decades by a privileged few wallowing in riches. So who blinks first? Dangote (who is also a cabal in other sectors) seem to want to make the oil sector work for the benefit of you and I.
While the war rages, the masses who are at the receiving end continue to grapple with galloping inflation, nail-biting depreciation of the naira, insecurity, trial and error Government policies, etc. So I ask, is there light at the end of the tunnel?

Tribalism is far worse than Racism.
I cringe at the kind of venomous comments I read on this Nairaland from our youths
The tribalism on this platform is second to none.
If I don't travel abroad wetin concern me and Racism

I agree.

It is not just about ranching. Bandits are pushing people away from their farms.

You start from ranching then each State makes law that any baggar seen herding cattle will be treated like a bandit/terrorist because they are alike! The ish will gradually fizzle out. No need to romance issues.

Ikumapkayi:


You don't think just like the person you are reacting to his comments. We have always had forest guards in those days. They protect farmers and herders alike. Since we stopped having them, people started encroaching on grazing roots and building houses as well on them. I know you will say why not build ranches. The government is also working on it and the very reason you now have a ministry of livestock

You think through your anus. Ministry of livestock kee you there. Wastage and duplication of roles is the delight of this Govt. Is there no Ministry of Agriculture?

food security is the major issue on ground now.
if you have better solution to first protecting farmers, please tell us let us learn.

I will tell you the only solution...RANCHING!!!!

Promismike:
The major problem of Nigeria is that we dont deal with the root of a problem.

Why not deal with the Fulani herdsmen that has and are still killing and destroying farms and Farmers. Are they ghost that they can't be dealt with after all the destructions and killing.

It's so tiring my brother. The root cause of the problem which is grazing and destruction of crops is left untreated and instead Govt is pursuing window dressing..

When will Nigerians learn the antics of the SE.

This was how Azikiwe positioned his people for a bloody ethnic cleansing they called a coup in January 1966. Same Azikiwe sneaked out of the country just before the coup leaving his friends from other regions to be massacred

CharlyBoy and his cohorts gaslighted the country to a protest that is already turning violent and destructive only for him to run away and hide in a corner and watch the country burn.

The most treacherous people are SE

Ol' boy, why you carry SE for head like woman wey tie wrapper? You just dey spam every thread with this..

I was discussing with a friend earlier this evening about racism abroad and tribalism back home and he was like tribalism is worse than racism as racism is the discrimination faced from people of different skin colour as opposed to tribalism which is discrimination faced from people of the same skin colour and much more . What are your thoughts?

If you have offended her you better apologize and make amends oo. Gun violence is real in the USA so you don't become another "neighbour shoots Nigerian neighbour 14 times" statistics!

There is nothing bold or special about this.
The Dangote Refinery is too important and strategic for Nigeria to mess around with.
Any other president would have made the same decision!

A reasonable government would have used the opportunity the Dangote refinery presents to shore up it's battered image!

frog12:
why dangote go build 650000 barrel capacity if not to monopolise. he has to get from other countries then

Did he stop you from reviving the 3 moribund refineries that have gulped over $30Billion for turn around maintenance over the years and yet to refine one drop of PMS till date?

TopNotchTrends:
We would have seen headlines that Travellers were kidnapped if not for timely intervention by well meaning truck drivers.

The Abuja Lokoja road was blocked by heavily armed bandits whose intent was to carry out kidnapping.

From the video, you can see that all cars were parked by the road, far from where the would have been abducted. The person narrating said that the weapons carried by the officers were no match for what the bandits have hence they could not engage them.

The Government should be more proactive to secure the citizens.

Watch and share your views.

Biden don cast.

US President Joe Biden, under intense scrutiny over his fitness to serve, accidentally introduced Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky as Russian strongman Vladimir Putin at a NATO ceremony before correcting himself.

“Now I want to hand it over to the president of Ukraine, who has as much courage as he has determination. Ladies and gentlemen, President Putin,” Biden said.

Biden quickly corrected himself, saying, “I’m so focused on beating President Putin, we’ve got to worry about it.”

By the time they'll expanciate on the Human Right clause as contain in the agreement, you'll be surprise, LGBTQ is actually what they're promoting.

Very correct! Definition of the term "Human Right" is open-ended and can be defined to include LGBTQ! Crafty people!
