@Officially_Kriz Key note: Assuming the Naira remains stable at around ₦1,400/$ and that the government does not default or restructure its repayment obligations both of which are significant assumptions to consider in an environment as economically and politically volatile as Nigeria.

Are you saying that buying gold is a good investment or a bad investment? You need to be clear with your investment commentary, especially if this is the niche you are trying to build for yourself.

Simply stating that an asset has down in price does not tell people much. What would have been more useful is a comparative analysis showing where gold was this time last year versus where it is today, and the factors driving that movement.

That at least allows people to assess performance within a proper context rather than relying on vague conclusions.

@olumidecapital Your statement seems to presuppose that if an experienced investor, market veteran, or business leader (OG) talks about or recommends a stock, they would automatically be sued. I don't know how that makes sense, but is that really what you are trying to say?

[jay @jaymobb]

@VoiceOfMasses10 Maybe if he had simply said that we need to reduce the cost of running government and increase the minimum wage, you would have been far more supportive of the proposal, right?

[jay @jaymobb]

But a high-risk and highly volatile digital asset does not necessarily mean that the asset offers high returns. Likewise, a low-volatility or more traditional asset does not necessarily mean that the asset is bad.
I am not entirely sure that what you wrote is clear, but even if I assume this is what you were trying to say, the analysis itself still does not make much sense. Also please try to make clear arguments or statements

I want to believe that making promises that may never be fulfilled is simply part of the game in politics. Sowore, like many politicians before him, is merely using one of the tools available in politics making bold promises to attract support and win votes.
Allow him to campaign with his promises. Ultimately, it is the voters who will decide whether they believe him or not.

@HarmlessHQ People are not as poor as you are. N200 million isn't that much

@egi_nupe So, by that logic, even an alleged murderer can contest elections in Nigeria so long as the person has not been convicted by a court?
Got it.

[jay @jaymobb]

You keep repeating the problem over and over again without reducing it into a clear argument people can actually engage with.

Do you think it would be better for more women to become stay-at-home wives in order to reduce the workload and pressures placed on them?

Or do you think it would be better for men to contribute more actively to household responsibilities and domestic duties?

Or do you think finding alternative solutions to household chores and family responsibilities would help reduce the burden on both parties?

Let us learn how to communicate effectively and structure conversations properly so people can meaningfully engage with the actual issue being discussed.

@ShehuSani "The knowledge of Nigerian Politics"? Please what are you trying to say?

[jay @jaymobb]

How exactly does building and repairing boats automatically translate into improved security and reduced oil theft on the waterways? Are you now suggesting that the Navy is already adequately equipped with the necessary weapons, surveillance systems, manpower, and operational capacity to combat these crimes effectively, yet is simply choosing not to do so?

[jay @jaymobb]

@Big_marvis It then means that the so-called “retards” are now sounding more sensible than the supposedly learned people. The irony of it all. What a country.

[jay @jaymobb]

@MasterBolaji So let this help you understand who exactly you are working for (the IMF, World Bank, and similar interests). More debt, more taxes, higher prices, and worsening pressure on ordinary citizens. Please learn to analyse properly.

[jay @jaymobb]

So you are saying Nigeria’s economy is currently performing better than that of Kenya, South Africa, Rwanda, Tanzania, and several others? Based on what exactly? GDP figures alone, actual living conditions, infrastructure, currency stability, security, ease of doing business, or overall quality of life?

[jay @jaymobb]

@HarmlessHQ No investor wants to give money to a fraudster and a serial debtor.

[jay @jaymobb]

I believe what you are really trying to say is this: even after the removal of subsidy, continuous borrowing, increased taxes, distribution of rice, and alleged vote-buying politics, why does the strategy Tinubu claims will transform Nigeria still appear not to be working? And why is there still a continuous request for more loans?

At what point do we begin to acknowledge that this may be an indication of massive policy failure by the government? Is there no evaluation or performance review team assessing the effectiveness of these policies and strategies?

[jay @jaymobb]

@HarmlessHQ Thank you Karoline Leavitt for updating us

[jay @jaymobb]

So you are saying that NTA pays creatives more for their work than platforms like YouTube, Netflix, and others? Off the top of my head, I find that argument very difficult to believe (although I may be wrong) especially considering that NTA remains highly localised and, for years, has largely and deliberately refused to innovate or evolve with the changing media landscape.

[jay @jaymobb]

@ciceroofny @MasterBolaji What difference does it really make? Even with the increased tax on the non-oil sector, the real question is: what has all the increased tax or additional revenue actually translated to in the real economy? What tangible improvement has the average citizen seen? Ode!
