@Mazi_Chinonso1 Here’s the breakdown of Nigeria’s name. I don’t do readings. But I can tell you a lot about you just by reading your name and your date of birth.
A lot of factors go into giving an accurate description, not just DOB. It’s helped me a lot. And Indians have used this for years!
@Mazi_Chinonso1 Please I want to apologise on this guy’s behalf. He’s learned what I would call half truth. I’ve been a Numerologist myself for over 6 years now. And I can tell you for free that it works!
But it’s only half truth & Astrology completes it.
Start with Cheiro’s Book of Numbers.
@Mazi_Chinonso1 Under the Chaldean Numerology system (the oldest), the number ruling the name “Nigeria” is 18 or 9. Gotten from 1+8 = 9, which is a number of War (planet Mars). Now see the reply below for the breakdown of the Number according to the Chaldeans.
This is beautiful to watch. And it captures the duality of most Africans. But please, don’t try this with Islam and Quran o, make dem no go attack you. Those people no get brain at all. 😏

For 300 years, corsairs came to enslave Europeans.
Not from a colony. From Europe's own coasts.🏴☠️
Spain, Italy, France, even Ireland and Iceland felt their reach.
One historian's estimate puts the number enslaved above a million across the centuries.
That figure is disputed. In both directions. What is not disputed: every government paid ransom, and paid again, and the raids never stopped.
🕊️ In 1816 Britain tried one more time, through words alone. The Dey of Algiers agreed to stop. For a while, it held.
⚡ Then in May 1816, around 200 fishermen under British protection were massacred at Bona. Britain had run out of patience.
Admiral Lord Exmouth was given a fleet. And Britain did not sail alone: a Dutch squadron joined him, under Vice-Admiral van Capellen. British and Dutch, sailing as one force.
💥 August 1816. The combined fleet stood off the walls of Algiers. Exmouth sent his terms in. The Dey refused. At half past two, the guns opened fire.
For nine hours, British and Dutch guns hammered the harbour defences. The corsair fleet in harbour was destroyed at anchor. Allied casualties, British and Dutch together, passed 900 killed and wounded. It was a hard fight, not an easy one.
By morning the defences lay silent. Exmouth demanded surrender. The Dey accepted.
🔓 1,083 slaves were freed at Algiers itself. Men and women of many nations and many faiths. The Dey repaid around 80,000 pounds sterling in ransom money.
Counting earlier releases that year, around 3,000 people walked free across all of 1816. Not walking free in a single day. Freed across the whole of that year.
The treaty broke the back of a 300-year system. It did not end the raids overnight. Raiding returned in the years after, on a smaller scale. It was the French conquest of Algiers, from 1830, that finally ended it for good.
Britain and the Netherlands had broken a system three centuries old. Not for empire. For people who had no one else to answer for them.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
British and Dutch sailors stood against a system nobody else had stopped.
Knowing their story, you stand a little taller.

This story is nuts. This guy, Igor Komarov, the son of a Ukrainian crime boss, was kidnapped in Bali 2 weeks ago by some people who said his dad stole a ton of money from them.
They broke his legs, cut off his fingers, and tortured the hell out of him and made him film a bunch of hostage videos disclosing how his family’s business scams people.
Anywho, he’s dead now. Dad didn’t pay the ransom. Crazy stuff.
This young Nigerian built a $10 million automated shoe factory here in Nigeria while sourcing 90% of its leather from Kano.
I like to promote and celebrate Nigerians adding value to Nigeria.

SWITZERLAND: A Muslim woman was fined 100 Swiss francs ($126) for wearing a burqa, which was banned in the country via referendum.
She contested the charge, claiming ‘Islamophobia’, and then her fine increased to 1,000 Swiss francs ($1,260).
A doctor couple left the noise of Chennai for two acres of land outside the city, in a village called Sholavaram. They wanted a modest two bedroom home with traditional building elements, nothing extravagant.
That home is VIPA Farm House, designed by Studio One By Zero, architects Deepak Sundaram and Kavya Rajendra. The walls are exposed brick and plain cement plaster, nothing hidden behind imported cladding. The ceiling uses a filler slab technique and the floor is oxide finish, both of which keep the house cool without any air conditioning doing the work. Every piece of furniture, the wardrobes, kitchen cabinets, doors, is reclaimed wood pulled from old palaces and houses across Tamil Nadu instead of freshly cut timber. Two courtyards run through the house east to west, so light, air, and even the smell of rain reach straight into the dining space. 2,350 sq ft, completed 2022.
None of these choices were made to look expensive. Exposed brick costs less to install than plastered and painted walls, and it never needs repainting. Reclaimed wood costs less than new hardwood and comes with a history new material can’t replicate.
A similar case exists on another continent. Casa Morro da Manteiga in Brazil, a much smaller 75 square meter home, was built under a government low income housing program using the same logic, brick left exposed, electrical and structural elements left visible instead of covered, to keep both the look and the cost down.
Two different countries, same conclusion. Building with local, honest materials is not a luxury choice, it is often the cheaper option and the one that survives the climate longer. The conversation Africa needs is not about waiting for bigger budgets. It’s about building with what already costs less and lasts longer.

LAWLESS AND SATANIC EXTORTION..PONZY GAMERS
ONYINYE SATAN ...GIFT WITH RIGHT HAND AND STEAL MORE WITH LEFT HAND
They announced reduction of duties on Tokunbo Vehicles to 5% ..and many clapped for them
Oya, see below the breakdown of other hidden levies, taxes and charges they never removed ...Ndi ori ...ndi aka na akpa
..............................
New import regulations for used vehicles in Nigeria:
1. Import duty: 5%
2. National Automotive Council levy: 15%
3. Value-added tax (VAT): 7.5%
4. Port surcharge: 7%
5. FOB valuation charge: 4%
6. ETL tax: 1%
7. CISS fee: 1%
8. 2% green tax applicable to vehicles with engines under 1.5T displacement
9.Other payable costs include customs value assessment adjustment, destination port handling fees of USD 15 per cubic meter, customs clearance agency fees, document fees and various miscellaneous charges.
LET ME ADD UP THIS FEES AND SUMMARISE IT UP PRACTICALLY FOR YOU WITH AN EXAMPLE
For a refigerated truck valued CIF at $40,880.00/N57,518,160.00, below is what these hoodlums will extort from us;
40,880 USD/ × 42.5% + 15 USD per CBM × 68 CBM + 400 USD, plus a 2,000 USD gratuity for the customs clearance agent.
The total estimated expense is roughly 20,794 USD, exclusive of all document fees and other miscellaneous charges.
In short, the port and clearance costs will be no less than over USD21, 000 .00/N29,547,000.00 with paperwork fees charged separately.
HOW CAN ONE BE EXTORTED N29.5MILLION FOR BRINGING IN URGENT AND NEEDED PRODUCTION AIDING MACHINERY PURCHASED AND SHIPPED INTO NIGERIA AT A CIF COST OF N57.5MILLION.
THE UGLY IMPLICATIONS....
In a country, where transport and freight cost is 3 times higher than the African average...
In a country that require average demand of 700,000 Vehicles annually, and with total domestic supply [ PRODUCTION CAPACITY OF ALL VEHICLE ASSEMBLY PLANTS IN NIGERIA] at 14,000 vehicles [ 2%] , its madness to keep extorting from the people with this high levies ...
NIGERIA TODAY NEEDS 25,000 REFIGERATED TRUCKS TO MOVE F0OD COMMODITIES ACROSS THE LAND AND TO HELP US REDUCE SOME OF THE POST HARVEST LOSSES [ CURRENTLY ESTIMATED AT N3.2TRILLION ANNUALLY] , BY FOOD PRODUCERS ....
THIS APC GOVERNMENT IS Deliberately acting like PLAGUES...REAL CANKERWORMS ... ONYINYE MAMIWATER... HOW ON EARTH WILL YOU PLACE HUGE TERRIFS, TAXES AND AL MANNER OF LEVIES ON A KEY FACTOR OF PRODUCTION/ MEANS OF TRANSPORT AND MOVEMENT , THAT YOU CANNOT PRODUCE DOMESTICALLY?
LET THE DATA BOYS COME AND DEFEND AND SPIN THIS ONE ...I AM WAITING
