Dangotes's government given monopoly has done more harm than good. Example is what he did to cement.
If government had allowed a level playing field, cent shouldn't be selling more than 2500 today despite inflation
haahh! U are so quick to cite cement as if that is the only thing expensive in Nigeria today. Give me other sector where he was not involved that prices has remained stable and reasonable.
richmond500: was Dangote the reason why Nigeria can't get their refinery working? Dangote entered the oil business few years ago. Ona wan blame the man for everything
its a case of a failure blaming a success for his failure. The man was favoured, the man was helped, blah, blah, blah! Now u begin to wonder if na only him get 3heads out of 120million to have gathered such patronage. They forget to admit that : when u are good you are actually good and gifted
theophorus: See ehn, an average Nigerian is out to exploit the weak.
People wen dey complain about Politicians, just give dem small opportunity and see their Greed.
Everyone is out to make extra at the expense of others, not minding the damages caused.
Mr. Ike Ekweremadu wanted to Harvest poor man's Kidney for 4.5M, Doc. Took 4.5M but gave young David 270K (Less than 10%) but David change it for dem and sent Mr. Ike and Doc to Prison.
Each of dem exploit the situation wen they had the opportunity and such is out mindset as a Nation.
xpressionx: Dangote is a major part of the problem we have in nigeria. How many businesses has been killed in nigeria because of Dangote? Our refineries cannot work despite billions of dollars spent in turn around maintenance and Modular cannot work either,but dangote can start from scratch and build refinery and it will work.
ADDENDUM:quoting me should name one business Dangote doesn't have monopoly at that is flourishing. 1.Dangote noodles 2.Dangote spaghetti etc
If you know the rate at which dangote gets dollars from CBN you go cry.
stop being a bigot. He has done more good than harm. If other privileged Nigerians especially those who stole billions from government had deployed their assets creatively the way he did. Nigeria would have been far better than it is today. He envisioned where many could not, he dared and ventured where many could not.. Rather than stash money in foreign banks and properties he built a production complex employing hundreds of thousands
Zwanzig: the .U.S.S.R and western powers won ww2 nt US alone go and read ur history books well and stop swallowing western propaganda hook,line and sinker. Marshal Zhukov received the official surrender of Germany on May 9th, reason its celebrated as victory day. Once again, it took a combined effort of the world powers to stop Hitler.
so who are d so called world powers? Remember that France was partially under occupation before d Normandy landing. Britain was also under threat. Their entry was a game changer,though their military was not initially experienced. They have to learn, re learn and toughen. The Russians could have reclaimed more eastern territories but would have been hard to crack the Nazis if not for d hydraheaded pummelling from d other sides and fronts
Go read history or go lick lollipop. You are not ripe for this discussion.
their entry into d war was a game changer with their immense resources. The war could have lasted for several more years and enough time for d Nazis to consolidate we know the role of Russians on eastern flank, Poland e.t.c
kettykings: This is very good for all igbos, the man will come out free but this should serve as the much needed tonic to stimulate divestment from hostile territories. I just hope igbos will see this as what it represents
where be hostile territories? If u see hostile territory u go fit talk?
lhordspy: Just imagine the effrontery, the confidence to start dictating for and threatening a sovereign nation on its dealings.
I mean, just imagine. This thing is getting illogical day by day. Same United state forcing other NATO, EU members,bullying other neutral countries into sending billion dollar worth of weapons to Ukraine, is still the same US threatening others not to rally around Russia. Donald Trump complained on CNN today about how billions of dollar were flushed down the drain by US into this Ukraine war, thereby abandoning Key projects that can even benefit the US citizens. Who the fvck do these guys even think they are? A god?
UK today just announced they are sending Long range weapons to Ukraine. Long range weapons are not for defense but for offensive. Yet the hypocritical west are saying they are only arming Ukraine for their defence. Who then supplied the sophisticated drones they have been using to attack Moscow?
This is what you get when you worship these slave masters. Nigerians who are fond of running to them for validation and writing letters to them to interfere in our internal affairs should learn from this. A mere Ambassador running his mouth. Imagine a nonentity threatening a sovereign state. Cuba today cant even import a bottle of coke because of heavy sanctions from the US. The only crime they commited was allowing Russia build a military base in their country bordering US. A 'sin' which almost warranted US nuking Cuba. The same thing US are supporting Ukraine for against Russia.
that same us saved u from world war too damnation. May be Hitler for they use u as donkey by now. Always learn history and learn about actions, reactions, causes and effects.
gigabyte13: Hmmmmmmmmmm, This road remind me of one stupid road from okigwe that lead to Abia via the LGA route... Hmmmmmmmmmm The incoming no go see the other from the other lane...... Wahalaaaaaa Wahalaaaaaa Wahalaaaaaa Anytime wey Dem dey carry us pass that road, l dey always say my last prayers
on top of that u ll see those mad drivers wey don drink ogogoro and kai kai speeding like hell
RaptorX: Stop extrading our people to this Western countries, you are a sovereign nation supposedly not a vassal or puppet state. If they committed a crime put them on trial here before a jury of their peers not sending them to this racist nations. So fvcking what some white boy committed suicide, this devils have been killing our people non stop for 500 years, so they need to be extradited to Africa to face genocide charges.
About Seventeen state governors will hand over to their successors on May 29, 2023 and retire into lives of luxury with generous benefits for their services to their respective states even as Nigeria is faced with economic crises, massive debt, unhappy and underpaid workers and pensioners.
Some of the outgoing governors, most of who will be completing two terms of eight years in office on May 28, will be entitled to generous monetary pensions, mansions to be built in locations of their choice, luxury vehicles and as well as security aides, among others, based on laws passed by their respective state houses of assembly.
1. Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State Governor Wike and his deputy, will enjoy generous benefits after leaving office as provided in the Rivers State Pensions for Governor and Deputy Governor Law, in 2012.
The law provides that three new vehicles should be purchased for former governors, and the vehicles are to be changed every four years. This is in addition to the payment of 100 per cent of their basic salaries, 300 per cent of their annual basic salary for furniture, free medical services and provision for entertainment. Same with their deputies.
The pension law for former governors and their deputies was signed by the former governor Rotimi Amaechi and made other provisions such as two choice houses in any area of their choice in Rivers State and Abuja and three cars replaceable every three years for the governor.
So Governor Wike will be entitled to all these except he decides otherwise.
2. Governor Ifeanyi Okowa of Delta State Governor Ifeanyi Okowa is entitled to a furnished duplex in Delta State or any other state in the country; medical treatment for him and members of his immediate family; two vehicles, including a utility vehicle every two years. two armed policemen and one DSS officer; 15 days’ annual vacation in any place of his choice and other benefits. The deputy governor is also entitled to similar package.
The law makes provision for ex-governors to be paid allowances and other benefits pegged at N50m yearly.
The Delta State Governor and Deputy Governor Pension Rights and other Benefits Law, 2005 was signed into law by former governor James Ibori, who ruled the state between 1999 and 2007
3. Governor Udom Emmanuel of Akwa Ibom State Akwa Ibom reportedly spends an average of N267.78m yearly on ex-governors and their deputies and Governor Emmanuel and his deputy are expected to enjoy the same as the state’s Pension Act, signed in 2014.
They are also entitled to the replacement of official and utility vehicles every four years and N100m as medical allowance as provided for in the law.
The Governor Pension Rights and other Benefits Law was signed into law by former governor of the state, Godswill Akpabio.
4. Governor Ganduje of Kano State Governor Ganduje and his deputy are entitled to 100 per cent of their basic salaries, six-bedroom house and free medical treatment for them and members of their families upon handover on May 29, 2023.
The law guiding pension rights for former governors and deputy governors also states that they will get well equipped offices.
5. Governor Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State Governor Ikpeazu is entitled to 100 per cent of his salary and official vehicles worth N20m to be replaced every four years, two operatives of the DSS, two policemen for the security of his house, as well as allowances for cooks, stewards, driver and gardener, while his deputy will enjoy similar benefits.
The law also made provision for medical attention for the former governors, their families and their deputies.
The Pension Law for former governors and deputy governors of the state also provides that former governors are entitled to pensions, allowances and privileges in accordance with the State law.
na him one yeye person dey question how keyamo fit buy House of 150m for America. That's just a glimpse of the largess politicians and office holders are entitled to.
Laurene: They're still young so there will be leniency... Stop being emotional. They'll go to school in prison and become the best in the US. The American society would reform them by the time they're out in 10 years time.
that's if the victims relative does not decide to come for them
Shokoloko: Oh my! Such a beautiful child. Any ways, I trust the men in prison to avenge the death of this child. Pedophiles and child murderers are "well taken care of" in American prisons. These ones will be wheelchair bound after a few months of arrival
Lifestone: We are simply lawless in Nigeria, yet we are quick to compare Nigeria to countries that obey their laws and policies. Any reasonable person who desire to buy a land must have done search to be sure the said land is free from encumbrances and nuisances. From the explanation of FAAN, efforts have been on since 2000. Markings were made yet they proceeded with building. Na wa o
there's markings like that in Shasha Egbeda neighborhood
Leadership at the national level transcends building infrastructure. What Peter Obi is proposing is a total overhaul of the Nigerian state (instilling sanity and the rule of law) and expanding our economic frontiers (we call it diversification here).
There's so little the states can do in those areas. We need those more than anything else.
By the way, I noticed that you don't like Peter Obi, so you are likely going to attack him in your rejoinder to this comment. Sorry, bros, I won't react to it.
TemplarLandry: Most Indian and Pakistani men are perverts, they're the ones who send their nude pics to random women on the internet.
Those putting cages on their daughters' graves may be culprits too. For it takes a thief to know the pathways of a fellow thief on a mountain. Olè ló n m'ęsè olè é tò l'órí àpáta.
No problems buddy.. Also see what I found online just in case if you are interested...I don't know if it will work but u got nothing to loose if u try..
What are ways to get rid of keloids? Depending on appearance, some people may want to get rid of the keloids they have.
There are a few ways to do this. You can try a few of these home methods first before contacting a dermatologist for prescription or over-the-counter approaches.
Home remedies Aspirin
A 2013 review and a 2015 study Trusted Source suggest that the topical use of aspirin pills may help treat keloids. Research found that aspirin prevents scar-promoting cells from entering the keloid site when applied. This way, both pigmentation and keloid size are reduced.
To try this remedy:
Crush three to four aspirin tablets. Mix them with enough water to form a paste. Apply them to the keloid or wound site. Let it sit for an hour or two, then rinse. Repeat once every day until desired results are achieved. Garlic
This root vegetable works much like aspirin, according to a 2011 dermatology reportTrusted Source. It blocks certain enzymes from entering the site that contribute to tissue and pigment buildup. Over time, application may help lighten scars.
To use this method:
Take two to three fresh garlic cloves and crush them. Apply to the keloid area and let it sit for about 15 minutes. Wash off with water and apply moisturizer. Discontinue use or reduce application time if the garlic burns your skin. Honey
Honey contains anti-inflammatory compounds that may help reduce keloids. Honey was mentioned in a 2015 review for its healing potential with keloids specifically. It’s an appealing natural alternative without potential harmful side effects found in corticosteroids or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like aspirin.
For this method:
Dab a bit of raw honey — organic honey is recommended — on the site. Let it sit. Rinse off later if the site gets sticky. Reapply as often as needed. It’s recommended that you use it at least two to three times per day until you get your desired results. Onion
Quite a few studies support the use of onion for keloids. A 2013 study found that the use of onion extract stopped fibroblasts — the cells that produce the scar tissue — from entering the skin.
Another study in 2012 found onion extract gel sped healing and reduced scar height. In a 2011 trial Trusted Source, it reduced pigmentation. This is most likely due to its quercetin content, a flavonol with antioxidant properties.
To use this remedy:
Cut a small onion into small pieces. A red, white, or yellow is fine to use. Squeeze out the juice by compressing it with a clean cloth. Apply the juice to the keloid area and let it sit until dry. Rinse. Apply three to four times per day until you see your desired results. Medical treatments Retinoid cream
Retinoid cream is a derivative of vitamin A, or retinol. Much like natural remedies such as garlic or onion, the cream has been clinically proven Trusted Source to reduce keloid appearance.
Make sure to follow the directions on the retinoid cream product you purchase.
Silicone
Silicone gel or sheets may be a go-to recommendation from your doctor. A 2013 trial Trusted Source found them just as effective as retinoid cream. Follow instructions or directions on the silicone product you purchase, or those given by your doctor.
Steroid injections
Injections of steroidal anti-inflammatories have been known to help with keloids. However, these have been shown to be more effective following major treatment for keloids. This includes surgical scar removal, laser treatment, and more, as noted in a 2014 study Trusted Source.
A combination of different injected steroids has also been shown to be more successful in a 2012 analysis Trusted Source. An 80 percent recurrence rate was reported, however. Talk to your doctor about using injected steroids in combination with surgery, laser removal, or other operations. https://www.healthline.com/health/how-to-get-rid-of-keloids#treatments
