I doubt their road can be as bad as Warri-Benin axis precisely. 30-45 minutes parole depending on as you take cho, you can easily end up spending 8 hours on the road if not more.

I saw a video of Trump taking questions from state house correspondents while g the executive orders yesterday. He was talking about the US imposing 100% tarriff on businesses BRICS nations do with the US.

I hope the idea of Nigeria ing BRICS/Intending to BRICS will not against us as a nation considering how Trump seem to be moving in this his second term sha?

Ibime, Raumdeuter, LordAdam16, and other of the house, what do u think?

meaning he expects to be bribed one way or an other

think of trump like your govt official who comes around making noise about infarctions

JJCs are intimidated - experienced hands know the game.

he is the one who banned tiktok - he is now the one unbanning it after some lobbying inauguration donations

if nigeria is fked it is because we are broke niggers of no consequence . we have not been doing any business with the US in any event. they arent the ones buying our oil and we are looking else where for weapons

Are u sure about the bolded?

The United States

The United States claims the fifth position with a total of N1.31 trillion worth of exported goods.

Crude oil remains a major driver of this trade relationship, with exports valued at N1.21 trillion, ing for 92 per cent of the total

Non-crude oil exports stood at N102.96 billion, representing eight per cent of the total.

I wanted to Google Nigeria oil revenue before posting but I figured why bother.

I don't understand as I have been reading for years that our crude is not in demand any more.

And I cannot reconcile those numbers with our current fortunes

But most importantly - what are we exporting to the US outside of oil and virtual labor?

I think China , USA and India are the top export destination for our crude oil. I learnt Nigeria's crude is one of the finest there is out there and that's why the US buys from us in addition to the various grades they have.

Decided to take the evening bus because when I checked every transport, almost all of them are scheduled to move in the afternoon/evening cause of less patronage. Most people are moving tomorrow

Bonny way transport ways

Night travel dey always fear me sha. While i was serving in Ebonyi, i always leave Lagos by 6am, same when leaving Ebonyi for Lagos.

Even when i went to Abuja in 2019 for nnpc interview, our bus left Lagos by 6am and we got to Utako bus stop around 8 or so.

Me and night travel no fit mix.

Blue, the Global South and the Golden Billion (North America + Europe + AU/NZ) are on a collision course.
It's set in stone.

Nigeria is hanging out with the BRICS crowd because it is and will remain the premier geopolitical forum of the Global South.
We have no choice. Even Chile, an OECD country and firmly keyed into the Western economic system is seeking entry.

These are the fundamentals.
So when we made the decision to get in, Aso Rock had done the calculus on risk and what not.
The potential of a future hawkish POTUS has been factored in. It'll be bewildering if we didn't take that into .

Now, with Trump as #47, and this applies to any other confrontational POTUSes, it's all about deft skill in geopolitics.
India, Brazil, and UAE are not going to be treated as harshly as China or Iran. All are BRICS .
Brazil needs the West for Embraer. Ambani, India's richest man, was at Trump's inauguration.
We want carve outs and if we play our cards right, we'll get them.
Essentially, it's not as much about BRICS as a group, but what we narrowly do via our bilateral ties with the West.
Else, we'll sleepwalk into a b100% tariff while even China is getting exemptions. We'll be the example dangled about as a cautionary tale while the ringleaders with more cachet get a slap on the wrist.
That's how Biden enacted global chip export restrictions and an ally like Poland (third largest military in NATO after US and Turkey) got shafted.

That's the danger.

I'm not that concerned about it because Tinubu is a failure but not an id**t.
It'll take a monumental screwup for that worse case scenario to come to fruition.

A 100% tariff will hurt us.
Trump wants all of the Global South to perform a pilgrimage like less powerful nation states did when a new Shahanshah, Caesar, or Qing Emperor came on the scene. Essentially, tell me why you shouldn't have a target on your back.

In Trumpian fashion, the delivery is bombastic; but it will happen with most POTUSes going forward because BRICS has the potential to be a check on the US's socioeconomic influence. The folks at Washington simply cannot have that.

The chip export restriction I mentioned earlier shows that this is the bipartisan way the US plans to relate with an increasingly economically vibrant Global South. Biden dropped the hammer and I don't think Trump will rescind the executive action.
I've been looking into a hobbyist rig to natively run open source AI models. It could become a serious challenge to future-proof the setup because the richer second-world countries will set up shell companies in third world countries to buy and redirect our quotas.
If the rest of the world can't get the GPUs, we can't create service exports in an emerging industry that'll define human civilization. Probably worse than a tariff even.

So, it's not like this is not something we have to think about. Or it's exclusive to Trump, ergo it's peculiar and a more run-off-the-mill POTUS wouldn't put us on notice.
Frankly, things are headed in a direction where we'll ultimately either be a target or collateral damage. No in-between.
Might as well be a target; there's safety in numbers. We play the game and deal with the fallout.

I used night very often last year. I had 2 bad experiences, but the rest went smoothly.

I understand the fears of insecurity and accidents, but I dey put my cares on my "Chi", and leave it there.

Once you have a smooth journey, it will be hard to hate Night travelling.

Shegzdave:

Amen, thanks boss

If you have a cardigan, hold it oh. They won't switch it off oh. You can only close your vent, but the bus go dey chilled

If you are like me that can easily get stomach upsets, buy Bitterkola.

Don't chop and drink heavy. Buy biscuits and maybe water. Ensure you empty your bladder well oh

Night bus no dey stop. Once they buy Diesel, no stopping unnecessarily
