6 months would have been better

Agreement and commission should have been reduced to 5% each.

Yes, those who naturally hate rich people who aren't from their ethnic group.

Inspirer1:
Wowww

the "monopoly" accs you mean...
FG getting 52% of his revenue implies that they will always back him

This is for those who believe the federal government allows him to make free money.

lexy2014:


what is the name of the system that you say does not fit the people?

how does the system not fit the people?

are the 36 states and the FCT not regions and are they not autonomous?

who is stopping the 36 states and the FCT from deciding their future?

will parliamentary system of government make your politicians to become saints overnight?

I don't even understand what you're saying.

Which state is autonomous in Nigeria or don't you understand the meaning of autonomy?

PigTormentor:
Rubbish.
The problem is rhe people not the system.

The system doesn't fit the people.

So the problem is both the system and the people.

It's like trying to force a ball into a triangular hole.

Parliamentary system of Government should be returned to or lets just try making regions autonomous.

Let every region decide their future!

Formularcr7:
you are likely correct but you think I shouldn't know the details of the beneficiary? Just to let you know the card wasn't compromised from my side, all the transactions occurred the 3rd day i renewed my card and the card is still with me till now.
I also try to know why I'll start receiving debit alert 3days after the transaction actually occur

As long as its GTB, it likely happened within their bank.

Those people often times employ criminals

Fallacy.

Talking from experience

Number 3 is wrong.

Except you would count Prince Charles as the leader of the British people and not their current prime minister because Iran also have a president.

Reflect7:


But the same west has been publishing figures and statements on Nigeria’s economic decline, and you loudly agreed with them.

The minute they say what your bitter mind hates to hear, all of a sudden they’re imperialists looking to milk the country dry.

Your head is conditioned for negativity against Nigeria.

But that’s your problem to fix, as we don’t give two sh…ts.

What I am talking about is too complex for you to grasp.

Anytime you see the west praising the leaders of your country, just know that the country is being sold out to them and they are milking it dry without any form of resistance.

OctavianAC:

And that's why he won't even pay any tax to anybody. Imagine telling a king or those ancient emperors to pay tax.

America no send o. Did you read the article?

Pope self-dey collect salary to do what exactly?

Popes don't pay any bills!

Down with the fake democracy practised in Africa.

Democracy in Africa is an avenue to Western control.

They decide who runs the country and what should be done.


Democracy is a ruse!

HelenaWills:

Questions when I bought it?
Did you read that I asked my brothers to go there with a Kazeem? Someone who charged me 40k before he could agree to follow my brothers for inspection.
Whoelse would I trust with the knowledge of a car?
I even learnt that when the Kazeem got there, he and the seller exchanged s for reasons I do not know. I'm thinking the seller settled him to convince my brothers to buy the car.

Your kazeem made you buy a coffin. Change mechanic ASAP!

He played you and also made money from the seller.

osuofia2:
Traore is a big scam. only obidients are singing his praise

But what's your business with what another country chose to do?

IbeOkehie:


https://africasacountry.com/

That's all you need to know. Go beynd HIStory and open your mind to indigenous Africanist knowledge.

Good Luck to Nigeria.

What a waste of my precious time.

IbeOkehie:


Stop quoting colonial knowledge.

Africa is a country. It's depressing that an African has been so alienated from the reality of his own history.

Good Luck to Nigeria.

Since you want to be clever by half, back up your statement so we can see who's actually swimming in colonial brainwashed matrix.

When was Africa a country?

What was her capital city?

Official languages.

Official currency

The official country name

The leaders of the country

Mode of governance

Make references to your responses.

Let's see who is actually simple-minded here.

IbeOkehie:


Abiriba is a town or village. A municipality.

Never mind the lies of the White Man, the truth remains that Africa is a country.

Thanks 😊

Good Luck to Nigeria.

There was no time Africa was a country. Even Nigeria is a living example of such.

Knowledge is intentional.

You could have easily researched what I wrote if you were interested in knowing the truth.

Ollyb2020:



My guy, respectfully if you think this is ‘experience from afar,’ you clearly didn’t read with sense. I’ve lived this business from the backend, built networks, and managed real clients. Not having a vehicle yet doesn’t mean I don’t know the engine inside out. Some of us move smart, not loud. Don’t downplay what you don’t understand.

Really? You needed to insult me for asking serious questions people that worked hard for their monies should be asking before putting it into what they don't understand?

I should stop here

Good luck

IbeOkehie:


The Economist is a prominent European magazine. National Geographic is another prestigious publication. Both have repeatedly referred to the nations and peoples of Europe as tribes.

Tribe, clan, ethnicity...the important thing is that the meaning is conveyed....these are groups of people with a common language and ancestry. That's all.

Nation is a different word with a LEGAL meaning based on SOVEREIGNTY. Yoruba and Zulu are not nations but Scotland and Norwegians definitely are.

And that Africa is a country!

Good Luck to Nigeria.

So you do not even know that Abriba was once a kingdom and they also speak a dialect that's not completely understood by all Igbo speakers?

You do not even know the peoples of your country, yet think you are qualified to classify who should be a tribe, ethnic group or a nation?

There was no time Africa was a country. A country wouldn't be fighting wars against eachother.

And the Economics you keep mentioning is just one out of thousands of media houses out there and just because they used tribe once doesn't eradicate the pandemic of western stereotype.

You can see how easy you could tag African societies as not a Nation but western ones who happens to be younger in existence as nations. This is more of a brainwashed mindset from years of daily propoganda most Africans grew up in.

If you're asked how you got this so called 'information', it's 99% going to be what the westerners wrote or displayed as 'facts' to you.

The hunter always tell the story and it's never in favor og the prey.

Ollyb2020:


Great question,thanks for asking.

I’m just officially setting out on my own, but I’ve been deep in this business for a while. I worked within the executive car rental space under an established company in lagos , In that time, I didn’t just learn how the business runs, I built real, revenue-driving client relationships and insider knowledge of what works. I’ve served elite clients, secured corporate deals, and most importantly, I now supply bookings to others as an agent. That’s a network you can’t buy it’s earned in the field.Now, I’m building out my own operation based on that background with one vehicle to start, and scaling from there.So I’m not just experimenting I’m replicating a model I already understand inside out.

Another i will like you to know is that this business model I’m starting with is intentionally lean. No rented office, no unnecessary costs. Our operations plug directly into high-traffic luxury hotel hubs like Eko Hotel, the same way even big players in the game operate. I’ll be ing with the top car rental associations that work directly with these hotels access that opens doors to daily clients.

Ok, so it's more of an experience from afar thing and not what you have experienced in personal practicals.

GoodSpirit:



You are right, i saw one of the GDP index, they over 50% increment from GDP he met in 2022 to this day. That's a great feat , only macao and guyana could experience such surge in GDP growth under same period

Nice

The fairest way to judge Traore and Burkina Faso is to compare side by side the country pre 2022 and now.

You have to have picture and video evidences, stats and indices for both periods in view.

Ollyb2020:



Hey bro, thanks for sharing your honest thoughts—I actually respect it.

I totally get where you're coming from, and that's exactly why I put together a short proposal to break things down clearly. It shows the structure, numbers, and why this model actually works—especially when handled by someone who understands the game from the inside.

I’m sending it your way just so you can take a look. No pressure at all—just figured it might offer a new angle. If after reading it, you still feel it’s not for you, I’ll respect that 100%.

Either way, I appreciate you keeping it real.

How long have you been into this business or you're just setting out?

nairalanda1:



TRIBES and ETHNIC GROUPINGS.

You don't have to be in denial.

You're too neck deep to see reason. It's inbuilt already.

IbeOkehie:


The Economist magazine has often used the term TRIBE to refer to the various nations of Europe. It's NOT wrong to refer to the English, Igbo, Akan, Zulu, Scots or Swedes as TRIBES. Then there's the wild error in referring to Abiriba as a tribe....Abiriba is an Igbo TOWN or village.



I don't understand why Black Africans are so immune to reason. This canard of constant electricity in Black African countries needs to stop. Ghana is one country often used as an example...I took the time to research the issue both online and by asking Ghanaians that I know. A Black American living in one of the big cities of Ghana recently posted a video of how they regularly go without electricity for at least 14 days every month. So I know for sure Ghana doesn't have good electricity supply....and neither does Bourkina Faso.

A query to Grok on general and urban electricity supply shows this result -





I think it's better to do the right thing rather than waste time and resources on MISTAKES. Don't worry sha, I'm laughing along with you.

This has all been predicted by scholars with better insight http://pscourses.ucsd.edu/poli120n/Kaplan1994.pdf

I it I didn't watch the video, BECAUSE I've seen it before....I mean the 1983 version starring Thomas Sankara, a handsome action hero who died before he could complete the mission. This new star, President Traore, is one of a group of anti-French military presidents that have come to power in the past 5 years or so. How are they doing? Everyone might want to ask the Chinese in Niamey or even Abuja for that matter

https://www.google.com/search?q=nigeria+republic+china+refinery+disaster+government+takeover&rlz=1C1CHBF_enUS1037US1037&oq=nigeria+republic+china+refinery+disaster+government+takeover&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyCQgAEEUYORigATIHCAEQIRigATIHCAIQIRiPAtIBCTExOTIyajBqNKgCALACAQ&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

It's alright though. The solutions I propose have worked out well in EVERY COUNTRY that has tried them; the biggest and best example is the United States of America. Even very LIMITED implementation of such reforms have vastly improved the economies of Communist nations like China and Vietnam and of course they were used to bring economic growth to Nigeria between 1999 and 2015.

It's possible we'll all live long enough to see the results in Bourkina Faso, Niger Republic, Gabon and others. It's a great movie? Press rewind.

Good Luck to Nigeria.

Europe is closer to being called a tribe than an ethnic group. There was a time the monarchy of 4 countries in Europe came from one family. (Britain, Russia, and ).

So no, Europe hardly uses tribe to describe themselves unlike the way the way their media and unfortunately our copy and paste media tend to use tribes (in a condescending manner) for Africa.

nairalanda1:


Well, they have several tribes....and like most African countries, they were amalgated to form one country.

There is no African country, except Botswana, and Somalia , that are not made up of many tribes. Nigeria is not an exception. The white colonizers just amalgamated as many tribes as possible together into new countries...for ease of istration.

And it was all for the resources. Nigeria in 1914 had not discovered any oyel when it was amalgamated...but there were other resources. Oil exploration did not start till 1937...and the first oil came up in 1954-6

Tribes or ethnic groups?

Tribe is the closest to clan, so why should the lowest classification of people be used anytime we are talking about Africa?

Yoruba = Ethnic group
Ijebu = Tribe

Igbo = Ethnic group
Abriba = Tribe.

I hope you got my drift?

TempleHouse:
African leaders starts well but derails on the promises once they're power intoxicated.

Gaddafi, Samuel Doe, Museveni, Mugabe and the present Rwanda president are typical examples !!!

Obama, Tony Blair, George Bush, Biden and even Trump didn't and isn't doing what the names you listed above did?

Ollyb2020:




Hey boss, I totally get where you’re coming from—on the surface, ₦10M might seem steep for a car hire venture. But I can assure you, this isn’t your typical 'drop-and-drive' rental gig. We’re talking high-end service, luxury vehicle upgrades, VIP clientele, and monthly income that rivals many small businesses. It’s not just about owning a car, it’s about positioning—quality, access, and consistency.

That said, I don’t expect everyone to understand it just from a few tweets. If you're genuinely curious, I’d be happy to share my full proposal with you privately. You might be surprised how structured, scalable, and investor-safe it really is. And who knows—you just might see the whole industry a little differently after that.

Thanks for keeping the conversation real—I'm always down to share ideas with open-minded folks.

Yes I don't mind you sharing your proposal on how 10m can start a luxury car rental business.

TheChameleon:


Blacks and inferiority complex... so easy to impress.

By the way, went ti Burkina Faso thrice last year. This guy is full of hot air.

He has a very active propaganda machine. He's damn serious about it.

When I was there, a coup happened that was immediately quashed.

If you write against the Government as a Burkinabe, they send you to the war front.


Funny enough I like and him, especially with chasing away the evil and ruthless French colonial masters. bled their colonies like Vampires. They even forced Haiti to pay for colonisation, " a cost of civilization".

But this guy lies too much. They even claimed they made an electric car. Within less than 3 years oo.

They too have a Boko Haram type of insurgency. Thanks to USA foolishness with Ghaddaffi / Libya.

Please cry more.

More tears needed

Cry more.

If you like, go to burkina 100 times, we don't care.

Only a propogandalist can be this bitter over another country's affairs.

Nairanlad owners and the paid commentators are all pro-Israeli or do you want their slave masters to close down Nairaland again?
