adamusuleiman2:
Another wailing thread of people crying more than the bereaved.

Lmao.

santaclaws:
Just witnessing this right now... All because of cheap rice that's not even enough to go round 😒

It is believed that people queuing to buy the N10k rice got frustrated when the queue was too much and some of them pulled down the gate of the Nigerian customs. Still, I don't believe this justifies tear-gassing people, some of which were nursing mothers who came with their infants.


Two people have allegedly lost their lives as per news circulating around the customs office.

Yorubas have resorted to blaming buhari but they never blame themselves or take responsibility for voting him twice.

marlow1962:
Very good
I wish the average Nigerian can't afford the basic necessities of life, by then when they step out, they will step out and do something that's right and beneficial to them and everybody, but for now let's keep playing the " my brother" game.

Each time there's a tribal clash in any part of Lagos especially the markets, it's always between Yorubas and Hausas. I have never read that Igbos and their hosts clashed but each time, the Igbos are painted as the troublesome hosts that don't regard their hosts.

What is the usefulness of this committee to the common citizen suffering the untold affliction of the useless government paying them for not making any meaningful impact?

epainos:

Lol.

Naija has made many think upside down.

Is the black market normal? It is found in a bad economy. Black markets are the tools that destroy the economy. For Niaja to be ok again, all black markets must be eradicated.

So, you think the black market is normal and a good thing. Perhaps you benefit from them. You see those people benefiting there won't want them eradicated. Those people are the enemies. Many are even there thinking it is normal business. Nope. It is not. The government of Nigeria is just useless.

Instead of finding reasons black markets should be retained, look at the bolded part in your post. I expect you to face the government to solve that bolded part.

Mehn! Nigerians do see shege. They now think black markets are part of life that must exist.

Angelfrost:


When people say Hausas are the wealthiest in Nigeria, I wonder at such ridiculousness.

What is the earning capacity of an average Northerner compared to an average Southerner?!!

There are 3 main reasons those people don't Japa like Southerners:

1. Less education and exposure.
2. Religious Extremism and mental slavery
3. Poverty


Let's not twist facts please.

epainos:


Lol

Economists from hell! The bolded part got me. What kind of transaction you cannot do with banks that only BDC can do? Can you read what the so-called lecturers demanding high pay are saying? Mehn!

I believe this lecturer is talking about money laundering. Tell me one BDC that has a bigger capital base than the smallest microfinance banks we have in Nigeria that I need BDC where banks are not capable of handling. Na wa ooo!

Can you see why Nigeria will not get out of this easily? These are the set that will wage war oooo.

Please, if you know the kind of transaction that is justified here, let me know. Cos I am really curious to know what he is talking about.

PussyOdour:



Tinubu has really disgrace the self acclaimed sophisticators. Tinubu is the most intelligent and smartest Yoruba man hence the Yoruba presented him to stand election. If Tinubu is the best Yorubas can produce and the most educated Yoruba man, I can only shake my head, because it's now glaring that we were deceived long time ago and we believed that Yoruba tribe is the most educated tribe in Nigeria. That was a huge fallacy.


That man Tinubu is a complete dummy, zero sense in governance.

dettolgel:
It is highly likely that the economy is being sabotage.

My question is who is responsible for this?

Is it possible that the current management of the CBN are still busy printing naira? If yes is city boy aware of this or is city boy printing his own share of the naira and converting it to dollars for further laundry?

Or are the owners of Nigeria behind this with the intention to build good reason to force city boy out of power and return power to the "born to rule"?

At this point it is either that president do not have a clue on what is happening or that he is aware of the situation but unable to do anything about it.

This is very scaring we are in deep shit we might hit Zimbabwe level of inflation and this will pose a huge threat to national unity.

they last chance they gave your Igbo brother Emefele landed us in this economy crisis yet your ppl are blaming Tinubu

blowjohn:




Did u read where it was said they used smuggling routes?

What does that tell u?


Is that how to export agricultural products?

Luckysbab:


You're not serious bro. Rest!

You really think everyone on the internet isn't learned about what they say.

There are more than enough warehouses in Mutum Biyu up to Kopi holding hoarded goods. I say it with all certainty.

surgical:
It is very difficult to understand this people,is that not among the reasons the naira was floated to improve export and earn more forex,why make it look like this people are doing the wrong, or are they not operating a free market again, where demand and supply interacts
There is demand for maize outside the boarders for a private product not Petroleum that have government subsidy o.
Nigerians should come to the rescue of this government, they are confused

blowjohn:



Why don't they go and plant the maize, harvest it and sell it in those countries?

Ur question funny O.

Don't just open it for cement importation, also allow rice, beans, tomato, wheat etc to be imported

Luckysbab:


Is it not the same Taraba where hundreds of warehouses are locked up, hoarding various food items? Is that blame also in the government?

Let them introduce whistleblower policy and see how things turn around.

Bullfallo:
No 3rd world country or developing country can float it currency with pounds, euro and USD and survive it.

Not even the Russia rubbles or any asian country for that matter.

The USD is the world favorite currency it has a value and appreciate even if they don’t export anything from the US.

When he was making noise about floating the naira, i heavily criticized the decision but some APC supporters who know nothing about economics defended him.

You can't float a currency against the dollar when you run a mono economy. It is very simple, your currency will fight with the dollar at the international market, and will only gain value if you do not seek much of dollar, imagine using dollar to import fuel, which almost every sector of the economy use, that indicates that more dollar will be sort, nor to talk of other household items we buy with dollar.

Tinubu is paying subsidy bigger than previous administration even when Nigerians are buying the same fuel 4 times the previous price.

adamusuleiman2:
Yes. That's the beauty of democratic choices. He has till 2027 then I will switch to Atiku if he fails.

AlexBells:

Yes, Lagos consume more electricity than any other state in Nigeria, consumption is more important than availability in terms of industry, if you are talking about startup yes there more opportunities in less developed areas. Just moribund infrastructures like Ajeokuta steel

AlexBells:

That stats is flawed if business don’t lie, if they have such infrastructure with no other set back investors will be grouping there, you want to tell me landlocked states lacking cargo facilities is more developed than let’s say Lagos. Unless the meaning of infrastructure is changing. All the infrastructure in those states isn’t even equal to port infrastructure in Lagos alone
