another point is paying for SSCE Exam malpractice for children at the age of 13 years to 14 years so they will get 9As and proceed to a private University to obtain Bsc

2. Equating Academic Excellence with Self-Worth
A prevalent belief is that only top academic performers are valuable. Phrases like “If you’re not first, you’re nothing” place immense pressure on children, often leading to anxiety and a fear of failure. This narrow focus on grades overlooks other talents and ions a child may possess. Recognizing and nurturing diverse abilities can lead to more fulfilled and well-rounded individuals.​

the people you call bororo are the owners of Nigeria. every APC governors bow before them, all politicians bow before them so who are you to complain

who can interpret this new and nonsense development

DrMB:
In the high-stakes chess game of international trade, a single number has captured the world’s attention: 245%. This is the tariff rate President Donald Trump has slapped on Chinese imports, a move so audacious it’s sent shockwaves through global markets and brought China, the world’s second-largest economy, to the negotiating table. But what lies behind this staggering figure? How did we get here, and what does it mean for the future of U.S.-China relations? Let’s unravel the story, as the stakes climb higher.

I. The Setup: A Whisper in the Wires

It started like a flicker in the markets—barely noticed outside financial circles. A quiet spike in EV futures here, a tremor in healthcare stocks there. Then came the leaks. Talk of a monstrous tariff. Not 10%. Not 50%. Two hundred and forty-five percent.

Pundits scoffed at first. Surely a typo. But the White House confirmed it with thunder: a new trade offensive, split like a trident—125% reciprocal, 20% fentanyl-related, and the old, brooding 301 tariffs (ranging from 7.5% to 100%)—was aimed squarely at China.

II. The Weaponized Structure: How the Tariff Was Built

It wasn't just a number; it was a narrative. Each segment of the 245% tariff was engineered to tell a different part of the story.

125% Reciprocal Tariff: This wasn’t random. It mirrored Chinese tariffs and shouted, “You tax us, we’ll match and double you.”

20% Fentanyl-Related Tariff: A policy nod to the opioid crisis ravaging American towns—a pressure point China couldn’t ignore.

Section 301 Legacy Tariffs: These were the ghosts of trade wars past. Now weaponized further.

The targets weren’t subtle. Electric vehicles, syringes, needles—all key imports where China dominates. If you bought an EV last year for $30,000, prepare to pay $75,000 now.

That’s not just math. That’s strategy.

III. What Sparked This Blaze: National Security Meets Trade Strategy

Behind the bold move sat an old warhorse: Section 232, originally crafted to protect U.S. industries vital to national security.

The istration painted a stark picture: an America dependent on China for rare earth minerals, essential medical supplies, and next-gen technology. The 245% tariff wasn’t just punitive. It was preventive.

“Without action,” said one senior official under condition of anonymity, “we risk waking up one day and realizing we’re tenants on China’s supply chain.”

It wasn’t just about economics. This was existential.

IV. China Reacts: Retaliation, Rhetoric, and Rare Earths

Beijing wasn’t silent. Tariffs on U.S. goods shot up to 125%, up from 84%, slamming industries from agriculture to semiconductors.

But this time, something changed.

China, typically dismissive of Washington’s hardball, offered an olive branch—with thorns.

“We are open to talks,” a Chinese trade official said, “but we will not be bullied. We expect respect, consistency, and a dedicated negotiator.”

Then came the countermeasures:

Tighter export controls on rare earth metals—essential for EVs, wind turbines, and defense systems.

Quiet backchanneling to EU allies, hinting at a “united front” to resist U.S. aggression.

The message: China wouldn’t fold—but it might sit down.

V. Back Home: Wallets, Worries, and the Fed’s Warning

The consequences rippled fast.

Electric vehicles? Prices soared. Syringes and medical needles? Hospital procurement teams scrambled. Even toys—many made in tariff-targeted Chinese factories—saw double-digit price hikes.

In a suburban Ohio hospital, the procurement manager sighed, “We’re paying 200% more for basic disposables. This isn’t politics for us—it’s patient care.”

Supply chains frayed. U.S. manufacturers celebrated temporary breathing room, but uncertainty spooked investors.

Markets tanked. The Fed Chair, Jerome Powell, issued a rare warning: “We are concerned about inflationary pressures and volatility driven by trade uncertainty.”

VI. The World Watches: Allies, Deals, and Divide Lines

As chaos brewed, over 75 countries reached out to the U.S., anxious not to be next.

Japan, a long-standing ally, struggled to find its footing.

“We fair trade,” said a Japanese official, “but these tariffs—this scale—it puts everyone on notice.”

Trade talks mushroomed globally. Countries sought exemptions, concessions, reassurances. Meanwhile, China explored deals with South America, Africa, and—some whisper—Russia to circumvent American sanctions.

This was no longer a tariff. It was a realignment.

VII. The Tension Point: Negotiation or Escalation?

So here we are. Tariffs have done their job. China is now willing to come to the negotiating table. But the terrain is unstable.

Three paths lie ahead:

Successful negotiation: A new trade framework, balanced and resilient.

Stalemate: Prolonged tariffs, price hikes, global supply chain fractures.

Escalation: A true economic cold war, with minerals, medicine, and machines at stake.

What makes this different from 2018’s trade war? This time, the stakes are existential—the systems that power green energy, healthcare, and national defense are in the balance.

VIII. This Was Always About Leverage

Beneath the headlines, one truth echoes: the 245% tariff wasn’t an end—it was a lever.

It forced a pause in Beijing. It recalibrated alliances. It reignited debates on self-reliance.

Whether it ends in renewed partnership or deepened rivalry, one thing is clear:

The U.S. has thrown down a gauntlet—not just to China, but to a global trade order long taken for granted.

China is now willing to come to the negotiating table but on the condition of respect from the U.S.

And in this high-stakes chess match, the world awaits the next move from Beijing.

"The Lagos State Commercial Court will serve as an institutional tool for enforcing the fiscal and regulatory responsibilities owed to the State by the citizens under the Law."
"It will also serve as the Lagos State Revenue Court to entertain matters relating to the recovery of taxes and prosecution of tax defaulters, entertain matters of recovery of levies, Land Use Charges, rates, fines, and other government revenues."

just to make sure the gang of Lagos money is complete

helinues:
Toh

That money could have been smooth spending if not because of change of power

How many shady deals like that that's yet to be revealed

All the people who Fubara has awarded contract to but are yet to do anything, don't spend the money oo

yeah tunbu boy i hail you o

how far the Job i gave you

Please heed my advice:
Every country has the worst of its population. The worst of Nigerians are called Agbadorians. They possibly could be the worst of the entire human species. Their leaders are who the governor is talking about.

.Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State has said that leaders at the national level must solve the problems of Nigerians across the country and not just make lives better for only a gang in Lagos.

Makinde stated this during an interview on Channels TV’s Politics Today on Tuesday.

He said, “We have to look at Nigerians. What do Nigerians want? Are they happy. Are we just playing stunt politics or are we just focusing on solving the problems facing Nigerians?

“Have we reduced hunger in the land? Are people hungry? What exactly should we be looking at in the future.

“Those are issues we have to address as leaders. Those are the things you need to look at. Politics, governance and all of these things don’t take care of themselves. Are you able to make the lives of our people better across the country not just for a section of the country; not just for, I am sorry to say, maybe a gang in Lagos.

“We want a situation where everybody in every corner in the country you must look at them once you at the national level.”

Makinde also said that he has the capacity to lead Nigeria.

He said, “I don’t have any doubt that I have the capacity to occupy the highest office in this land and I have what it takes.”

They can marry their fellow men like they've been doing in recent times.

even at that there is still more trouble for human

somebody should enlighten me the difference betwix this court and the normal court
So basically this is not for the people who have been wronged. This is for people who have wronged the government. This project is not in the interest of the people, it is in the interest of the Big pocket of the gang of Lagos

are these one of the reason men are afraid of getting married

reno Omokri Come and defend them for tunubu sake

LAGFERY one of the safest fery on water in nigeria

but in most of thread you call people names

helinues:


Express yourself without name calling. How would they sustain the economy precisely when they are so indebted and the projects they have been spending money on, building a new city in a desert is hardly 40% completed?

Try and engage logically this time around

thieves looking for way to scam people

refute what?
only for us to see tinubu launching the money

helinues:
Yet to be half done even though they have already been exhausted financially

People don't understand whenever I said Egypt is currently using old glory as one of the giant economy in Africa. They are currently so indebted

clown
past glory indeed.
they have constant electricity than tunubu nigeria
and a higher GDP per capital

you have been insulting people on this forum for no reason why is that so
all the alternative rout are so useless that even umahi was shocked to the bone marrow yet you are talking trash
they build lagos and forget to add drinkable water and better alternative routes
