10 dollar is like 10 naira in USA

But in Nigeria

10 dollar is not like 10 naira in USA. $10 in USA can get you close to half tank of petrol in your car depending on what type of car. How much petrol can 10 naira get you?

$10 can get you lunch in the USA. Can 10 naira get you lunch in Nigeria? When you have $10 in your wallet in USA, you hold it tight literarily. When last did you see 10 naira in your wallet?

Basicend:


What you are saying is rubbish.

How much volume is Nigeria exporting to US?

forex of course won’t reach 3000 per dollar but that little export would still have an effect on forex. Don’t Nigerians export coco to the US? That’s still a lot of forex on coco alone. Expect exchange rate to go up soon

Raph82:
Hell will not let loose if they don't export to the US. Find other countries to export to. It's that simple. Don't let US hold U into ransome. By the way, US population is not up to 400 million, how come every other nation is targeting US for their products?

It’s because of the dollar my friend. The US is the number one consumer economy in the world. That’s where the market is more than any country.

People can’t just shift their export to another country like that because those other countries are either saturated with the same products or don’t have anymore market share for new sellers. Understand economics my guy

mannobi:
Is it impossible for Africa countries to trade among themselves instead of these embarrassments from America??

You can trade among yourself but you can’t earn in strong currency. You think more than 70 countries that are begging to make a deal with Trump are fool? It’s because the US market is where the money is.

Vietnam and India have turned down China’s request in order to the US

well..I can't be bothered about how it is in the west... We are in Africa..and by African standard he's the one disrespecting his elder by harassing him and filming him without his consent. The man is the real gentleman as he refused to be provoked,rather smiling and walking away.. dogs have souls? Well so does cows that he loves to eat large chunks of their meat

I’m very sure the interaction between them didn’t start with the video. Do you think it started with the video? Don’t believe everything you see on the internet. We don’t know what transpired between them before the oyinbo pulled out his phone to record the incident as evidence to protect himself if anything happened.

The society has gone beyond “don’t video me without my consent “. If anything happened, that video would be requested as evidence in court. This is 2025. The only thing that can give you right against not being recorded is to not have any form of interaction with the opposite party. Once you do, he has right to record as evidence. Or you can just walk away to not be recorded .

Maybe Africa would not be in the mess it is today if both young and old threat each other with respect. What has respect given us in Africa? Chaos, hate, fight, destruction, family feud, societal destruction . A society where respect is not about how old you are, how much money you have, who you know, which caliber you belong, which government you work for, what type of job you do whether you clean toilet or sweep the street, is a better society in my opinion.

mightyhazel:
Disrespect you how? You senior the man for age? Abi na because of say u white for skin? He's not even as bothered about the dog as he's pained about the man's disrespect'... Makes his argument watery

Respect in oyinbo land is not about age. Both young and old respect one another. Respect is about how you talk or react to people with courtesy. It’s not about seeing someone as higher than you as it is in our community.

A teenager or a kid would tell a fully grown adult that he disrespect him if the adults doesn’t treat the little one with courtesy . That’s how respect works in the West

This is absolutely nonsense. It is forbidden and consider shirik in Islam to do this nonsense.

You go to Mecca to kiss stone. They bath with mud. Same idol worship

If you're planning a trip to Dubai then you better grab your pen and paper 'cause there's a few things you need to know. One of the main requirements for Visit Visa holders is a AED 3000 minimum in cash or credit, you have to show proof before you fly

Insurance covers the loss😁

Why is the Igbo female native dress is basically English dress or an adaptation from English Victorian era ladies’ dress. Am I the only one seeing this?

PressMyButton:

Was it not on official duties he asked election result be reversed and directed his ers attack the capitol?

You’re only perpetuating democrats lie. He never directed them to attack the capitol. He said clearly in an audio recorded and I heard it with my ears that they should march peacefully to the capitol and make their voices heard. That dispel all the “he asked them to attack “ lies.

He didn’t ask result to be reversed. He asked Mike Pence to put the result on hold which is what Mike Pence is constitutionally empowered to do in order to investigate discrepancies. Mike Pence refused. That’s not a crime.

Everything they accuse him of he did in his capacity as president to carry out his official duties. Not some personal crime

PressMyButton:
I am shocked and surprised that headless mobs are not attacking US Supreme Court and cussing out their Supreme Court Justices. In US, immunity covers you after leaving office even when there are proofs of criminal offenses against you and prevent your criminal prosecution. But some group of headless mobs believe in their own delusion that Nigerian judicial system is the worst on earth. Maybe US justice system is also cash and carry.

Immunity doesn’t protect president against criminal offenses. No criminal offense as president has been established against Trump. Except the ones he’s been convicted for in New York as a business man. According to the Supreme Court, the president is prosecuted if he does anything in carrying out his official duties. Not committing some personal crimes

Dialpad:
Lol, he forgot that Americans could be nice to anyone. Even if they don't like you ... that funny smile can deceive a newbie

I can only imagine how he would be sheepishly smiling back in the face of every Tom, Dick and Harry that smiled at him thinking it’s because they like him. I figured that out very quickly that American smile doesn’t meani like. In fact they do that to anyone they can’t stand

hisgrace090:
Almost 50k dollars then.

Even $50,000 then was like $200,000 today in value and purchasing power. In other words, since $1 was equivalent to 1 naira then. 50,000 naira then is the same as earning $200,000 today.

When I was quite younger and Inexperienced, with the way American movies and News paint her country to be the best place on Planet Earth, it became my choicest Country and a Country of my dream

Until I got in with this Russian controlled page "In The Now" that exposes the rotten and Dirty secrets America has been hiding away from folks outside America before the page was brought down, my jaw dropped. It's there I got to know;

> Each day you wake up in America, you live in constant fear, esp if you're Black

> Each year, thousands of Americans also Japa from America to live in other countries

> Atleast 312 people are being shot daily in the US (app 1 persons in every 12min)

> Just like in Nigeria, you're not safe at Night as you can be robbed or shot dead

> You don't spend much time in a place of large gathering like Walmart, Clubs or Cinemas, cuz it's not safe as you can be shot dead "mistakenly"

> When people look at you for long, it really might not be in iration, you should be nervous

> Many Kids and Adults are being kidnapped and with a hopeless likelihood of been found

> A simple n short Argument can cost you ur life (America is the easiest place to be killed mistakenly)

> Being Black leaves you at a Disadvantage when being approached by the Cops as a racist Cop can push you into doing or saying something that can cost you your life

> Police approach you with a safety off Gun in fear cuz he doesn't know if you have a gun or not and "any uneasy body movements" can have him release bullet shots, killing you.

> Your killers can bag a 5 - 10year jail time and be out to live even his best life.

> There's no True Justice in America, Detectives are always looking for evidence even when it's glaring, so don't loose guard by allowing anyone kill u first

> Just like in the Jungle, life in America is a life of kill or be killed. reason why everyone own a Gun

Everything you highlighted is absolute truth but with every sense of over exaggeration.

SHIVA001:
But he will feel too big or ashamed of himself to do this same business in nigeria, he will even Look down on people doing it at the road side. Hmm

if Nigerians are ready to pay £1 per corn, I can assure you, he would gladly relocate to Nigeria to sell corn.

Where’s the portrait? That’s not a portrait

gforce5:
It is lucrative BUT many of us are struggling to get clients due to the fact that Immigration lawyers aren't well known in this country. [b]Majority of Nigerians who intend to Japa, would rather consult a travel agent than a lawyer who is knowledgeable about immigration laws. [/b]They want someone who will guarantee them a quick result. As a lawyer, you are under an obligation to tell your client the truth. Agents, on the other hand, aren't under such obligations and tell their clients what they want to hear.

As for Henley and Partners, those guys are making a killing. I told my friends many years ago that with the way the Nigerian port is crashing, it's only a matter of time before Henley & Partners move in as many rich Nigerians would be forced to get a second port. That is the elite's version of JAPA. With a population of over 200 million people, Nigeria is a market that Henley & firms cannot ignore. There are many Nigerians with raw cash that can afford those ports. It's the masses I pity the most. They don't understand what's coming.

Immigration lawyer in Nigeria is no difference from a travel agent as far as japa is concerned. Of what use is an immigration lawyer in Nigeria to someone looking for residence permits abroad? I don’t see any.

techub:
Here in Nigeria we are also looking for the Americans who gave our forefathers mirrors and took their sons and wives.

it’s a legitimate business. Both parties agreed to it that mirror was a worth of value in exchange for slaves. Your forefathers no complain. Watin concern you

Im no longer a er of Israel.

I just found out that Jewish people STILL HATE JESUS CHRIST AFTER 2000. YRS AGO

FVCK RIGHTEOUSNESS FOR MISLEADING ME

Now is it Hamas you are throwing your behind? Hamas don’t like the real biblical Jesus either. Not Issa their fake version of Jesus.

They will never try such on their own colour or race but on blacks.
Definitely, they will try to deflate the man's death from the kidney transplant.

. There’s a white woman undergoing the same procedure as I’m talking to you. She was on the news about four weeks ago on her hospital bed surviving on pig kidney. I pray it fully functions for her

Kizzygentle:
Congratulations to you and more wins. Please how can I go to Australia through study route. I need your guidance in this.

Australia has banned Nigerians from getting student visa. Even their universities won’t accept you because you’re a Nigerian. This ban just ed like one month ago. This’s due to Australia realizing that Nigerians are only interested in staying in the country and not studying

Nigerian in Dubai, both legal and illegal, those with jobs and the jobless are really suffering. The visa ban has affected everyone regardless. Even the ones with jobs cannot renew their employment contract and work permits after their first job contract has expired. All due to the visa ban.

Common denominator of all these countries is that they’re all tourist destinations for inflow of tourists dollars into the country. Lower population that gives room for less demand pressure on dollars which makes dollars stable in the countries

CartelKenneth:



Yesterday I wan cook Indomie
Na Im i see say thé matches na MADE IN INDONESIA😂😂😂
Ordinary matches we no fit produce

Godforsaken country

and the funny thing is that nobody uses matches anymore in the western world. I have been in the US for many years. I have never seen matches anywhere here with my eye because nobody uses it. Even things like matches that the west has left in the past, Nigeria still lacks the capacity to manufacture. Tell me why won’t this country be stucked in the past forever. Sad!!

flyinnizam:
says someone who has never witness a war before

What in my comment did you disagree with? I never witnessed war before doesn’t mean I have no knowledge of what’s in the chatters of Hamas to wipe out Israel whether there’s peace till the end of the world or not

flyinnizam:
I ed Israel at the beginning but now Israel should just stop this war

Israel should stop war abi? Have you told Hamas to stop war? Hamas wants to keep on fighting but you want Israel to stop war so that Hamas can finish them.

If Hamas laid down their weapons, there will be peace. If Israel laid down their weapon, they will be exterminated.


Channel your request to stop war to Hamas

CNN
—
Israel has carried out a military strike inside Iran, a US official told CNN Friday, a potentially dangerous escalation in a fast widening Middle East conflict that Iranian government officials have so far sought to play down.

The United States was given advance notification Thursday of an intended Israeli strike in the coming days, but did not endorse the response, a second senior US official said.

Iran’s air defense systems were activated in several locations after three explosions were heard close to a major military airbase near the Iranian city of Isfahan, state media reported early Friday morning.

Maj. Gen. Abdolrahim Mousavi, the commander-in-chief of Iran’s army, said the explosions in the sky above Isfahan were related to anti-aircraft systems shooting at what he called a suspicious object, which did not cause any damage, Iranian state news IRNA reported. Other Iranian officials said air defenses intercepted three drones and there were no reports of a missile attack.

Iran has not identified the source of the strike.

Multiple state-aligned news agencies reported that sites associated with Iran’s nuclear program were secure and the attack appeared to be limited in scope.

Iranian media appeared to further minimize the scale of the attack on Friday, broadcasting calm scenes from Isfahan showing residents walking through parks and visiting landmarks. Traffic was reported as normal and the airport was also reported to have reopened after flights were briefly canceled or suspended early Friday.

Reports of Friday’s strike came hours after Iran’s Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian told CNN that if Israel takes any further military action against Iran, its response would be “immediate and at a maximum level.”

“If the Israeli regime commits the grave error once again our response will be decisive, definitive and regretful for them,” he added, noting that this warning had been communicated to the White House via the Swiss Embassy in Tehran.

shoodboi2:
The bishop was stabbed while delivering a lecture condeming Israel's ongoing genocide in Gaza.

The stabber is not a Muslim as botragelad and the alternate handles he uses to comment are trying to insinuate.

The first stabbing that occured earlier, which botragelad talked about, was committed by a White Christian man named Joel Cauchi.

Since he's not a Muslim, they claimed the man had a "mental illness". But if he was a Muslim, they would have claimed he did it because of Islam and not because he is a murderer or has a mental illness.

Funny enough, our in-house Senior Clownmaster botragelad refused to post the news after initially lying that the stabber was a Muslim 🤡🤡

But I posted it and it made frontpage:

This is one of the videos where the Bishop condemned Israel's treatment of Palestinians:

The last two photos are of the attacker


[/b]

The stabber is a Muslim. This is what he said in Arabic after he was arrested,” if he didn’t curse my prophet, I wouldn’t have come here. If he isn’t interfering with religion learning l, I wouldn’t have come here”.

One of the people that held him down asked him,” what religion?”. [b]He answered back and said, “ if he only talk about his religion I wouldn’t have come here”.

SeriouslySense:
Thank God for that. But there will also be a lot of false news this night and propaganda.

CBS news contributor just aired it five minutes ago but said it’s unconfirmed yet.
