When the President arrived
#PMBinKano
So this is @ChibuikeAmaechi fact-checking @PeterObi today in Kano.

Turns out virtually everything Obi said at #NGTheCandidates yesterday about #RailUPng Projects was UNTRUE.

#PMBMeansBusiness #PMBinKano #infrastructure
“Arise o Compatriots. Nigeria’s Call Obey.”

(PS. See the flags being flown on the floodlights)
(PPS. See crowd)

Spending the morning on a Rice Mill in Kano. They’re reporting a massive increase in quantity (and quality) of available paddy - a lot of people have gone into farming, & milling capacity also growing fast. This rice revolution is real, people google.com/amp/s/amp.ft.c…

Local production is up significantly, but we still have some way to go until it meets all of local demand. That’s the simple reason why it’ll take some time for prices to come down to levels Nigerians are anticipating. Demand is still ahead of supply, but supply is growing fast.
MD of one of the Rice Mills in Kano tells me: “A lot of people have gone back to the farms. People are now struggling to find land to farm. Places that were uncultivated before have now turned to farms... It’s not just rice, it’s beans, maize, etc.”

“ATLANTA, Jan 30, 2019 – The Coca-Cola Company today announced that it has completed its acquisition of Chi Ltd. in Nigeria. Coca-Cola first announced a minority investment in Chi 3 years ago and, as planned,has now acquired full ownership of the company.” coca-colacompany.com/press-center/p…
“This acquisition further signals Coca-Cola’s optimism about Africa’s consumer opportunity and a commitment to its long-term investment and growth plan on the continent, where it has been present for more than 90 years.” coca-colacompany.com/press-center/p…
“Vectis, a private equity firm long active in Nigeria, has concluded a restructuring investment transaction of USD12 million into Leventis Foods Ltd, an established Nigerian FMCG manufacturing company with leading brands of bread and snacks.” privateequitywire.co.uk/2019/01/14/272…

The Co. is struggling across what should be its growth markets of Africa & Asia. Doesn’t have to have anything to do with Buhari, LOL. You know that -but you must pander to your audience. Companies face competition,struggle to adapt to changing times etc. Not everything politics.
.@Chxta - There are such things as business cycles. There is also competition (look at how Molfix ate Pampers’ lunch), changing consumer tastes, changing industry conditions, changing corporate priorities (such as when GE decides to globally quit the rail business), etc etc.
What’s interesting is that the macroeconomic conditions in Nigeria have actually improved rather than declined over the last 1-2 years. Inflation down from 18% to 11%, currency stable, Manufacturing PMI has seen 20+ consecutive months of increase 🤷🏾‍♂️

Fact-checking Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez:

“Everyone has two jobs”
(Only 5.2% do)

ICE required to detain 34,000 ppl each day
(False)

Upper-middle class doesn't exist
(It’s grown 16%)

Medicare for all is cheaper
(It would cost $33 trillion over 10 years)

washingtonpost.com/news/fact-chec…
Last month, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) touted a study showing Medicare-for-all “would save the American people $2 trillion over a 10-year period.”

However, the study assumes payments to health care providers would be slashed by over 40 percent.

In the study’s abstract, the author notes:

"It is likely that the actual cost of [Medicare-for-all] would be substantially greater than these estimates”

#President @realDonaldTrump's words, whether you accept his apology and his explanation, do not comport with his actions and his foreign policy toward #Russia. He has been one of the hardest presidents on Russia in recent memory.

#Trump #IntelligenceCommunity #Collusion
Where was the outrage when @BarackObama told Medvedev to inform #Putin "After my election I have more flexibility,"? I think much of the outrage being expressed- especially by #Republicans- is politically motivated.

#Trump #IntelligenceCommunity #Collusion #Russia
However, what @realDonaldTrump said was not right. It DID undermine our #IntelligenceCommunity, and it was a mistake. He has since corrected it and walked it back.

I feel like driving up some controversy, so how about a thread of Hot Takes/Unpopular Opinions! You know the drill, one like = one take/opinion.

Start easy: the blunt awkwardness/cringe of 'Blurryface' is the point of taking the piss out of Tyler. I stand by my light 9/10.
2. I don't hate Nickelback's 'Dark Horse' - it's easily a record for them at their most tasteless, but the frat-bro swagger of it helps some of their better hooks.
3. 'Fireflies' by Owl City is a genuinely terrific song that captures precocious, starry-eyed wonderment better than few others in the 2000s.

It is SPECTACULARLY lame, but that's why it works.

#Fact 1 - The Wage Gap is real. People who says it's not haven't read the data.

However, in places like the USA, the wage gap is *not* mostly due to sexism like many #femnist #WomenInScience are claiming it is today. Disparate outcomes doesn't imply disparate treatment.
Women typically choose fields that are lower paying; even in the #STEM fields. To attribute that to sexism only or even mostly is a very dishonest way of deriving an answer for this complex disparity.

Sources:

cew.georgetown.edu/wp-content/upl…

npr.org/sections/money…
When the US Department of Labor Statistics took into consideration personal choices, non-wage benefits, hours worked, experience, education, and other variables that contributes to the wage gap the percentage of earnings decreases to approximately 3%.
