It is just co-incidental that the person you wrote about is my uncle. Half of what you wrote about him is not true.... For instance, Uncle Etim Esin is not living quietly in Akwa Ibom state. He now lives in Lekki (quietly in his house there). He also has houses in Surulere and other parts of lagos... While the write-up about the armed robbers' incident is just 70% correct, the incident about rape is false. You need to understand his perspective.He did not rape anyone, I spoke with him about this incident myself, and the narrative he gave is quite different - it was a case of frame up. Uncle Etim John Esin that I know in person is not regretting anything... I can tell you that for free.

I know that we have several Ex-Super Eagles players on this platform too, probably reading this post. We need to celebrate our heroes. My uncle is a Living Legend, let's celebrate him while he is still alive.

Kindly tell us the full story. I am curious, mbok

Useless people

Read again. It's Nigerien forces in Niger and not Nigerian forces in Nigeria

Thank you.
Scraping WhatsApp data would be breaching Meta's policy. Because the data is not public data, its behind a login.

Oh ok. Thanks for the feedback

Great stuff! Think you could build one to scrape videos and pictures off a whatsapp group?

Have you raised any funding yet?

You've got H. Pylori. Its bacteria that lives in the stomach. Get a blood test. See the doc, take medication. And after the 2 week meds, get on cabbage juice. Make it yourself and let the water ferment for 5 days. You can view how to do this on YouTube.

does it affect range rover too? Notice range do catch fire most times. Will you suggest we should not buy range rover 2018 model upward

Range Rover engines used to be manufactured by BMW. Don't know if they still do so

Hi

Clearing agents in the house...pls I'd like to know the cost of clearing a truck (using the current price this September), something really similar to the picture below. Thanks

oliverjiad:
budget #9m for it

Thanks

how much to clear a daf or man truck (yr 2000 up)?

Elegant and classy

Try eating only green vegetables for a year. No food. Just veggies, fresh..you will be healed. The body is 95% liquid, 5% waste. Dr. Sebi and many others have cured AIDS using plants, Prodigy cured diabetes using it too and many others.

Look it up. Pills make your body dependent on the drug for life. And Pharma Kea aka Enchantment/Poison gives you a cure but hands you another problem

Whatever a woman brings to the table can be paid for and be replaced. Can't say the same for a man.

You might want to check the water you bathe with, it may be coming from a dirty tank or we'll. Wash your tank and drain the water out completely. Add alum to the new one and see if it changes. Never cook with it

will give you tips that have worked for me over the yrs.

1) Always boil your water and store yourself
2) Plant bitter leaf plants around your home. Two or three leaves a week helps to kill bacteria in your blood. It also helps to cleanse your inner body
3) Work out - it creates a very tough immune system that makes you recover quickly
4) Watch what you eat. Opt for a lot of soups around the week. Eat less fat.

Never been admitted at the hospital for a serious illness for 26yrs now, its the grace of Elohim

Am I the only one that runs high fever if I skip bathing for 1 day? This has been going on for 5 years now. If for any reason I don't bath throughout the day and go to bed, I start running fever from my sleep.

Does anyone else experience this?

Sounds like a HIV symptom, get checked

Done well for yourself since 2015. Love the progress.

What's your knowledge on MERN stack like on a scale of 1 to 10. And do you have any samples of work that one may view? Thanks

McLizbae:
What is the meaning of that "Halal with the sign"? I have seen the writing and sign on many products, especially noddles. It sounds kind of arabic too. I will like to know what it means.

Means it's been blessed by the Iman and it's kosher (clean in Jewish)

Married Nigerian women give you sex whenever they feel like their emotions and pockets are in check.

Most naija men are very sexually active, more when they are married.

Naija women feel you only deserve sex when you meet their needs. Your needs are often ignored and I've come to realise the reason why majority of the married naija men cheat is because they aren't getting their emotional and physical needs met at home so they assume they can find it outside.

Sadly, a lady slides in and takes advantage of the situation for her security.

I don't like that of glo because of how they allocate part of the data to be only used in the night.

I am on MTN 6,000 naira for 34GB monthly.


I have calculated and checked that if you have big change for your wallet, just buy 1 year data package.

Need your subscription. Got a link for this? I just paid 3500 for 7GB monthly using *312*1#

Let’s get some facts in order, because emotions are running high and misinformation is everywhere

Claim 1: “Israel attacked Iran first, and Iran is a sovereign nation.”

This argument keeps popping up, but it ignores years and decades of provocation and aggression from Iran.

Rebuttal:
Iran has been attacking Israel for years indirectly by funding, arming, and commanding proxies like Hezbollah in Lebanon, Hamas in Gaza, the Houthis in Yemen, and Shia militias in Iraq and Syria. These groups have been consistently launching rockets and bombs into Israeli territory. This isn’t hearsay — this is confirmed by global intelligence agencies and even openly admitted by Iran’s own leadership.

On October 7, Hamas launched a brutal and unprecedented terror attack on Israel — killing civilians, taking hostages, and sparking the current escalation. That attack was the first shot in this round of war, not anything Israel did to Iran directly.

Yes, Israel is now responding — as any nation would. And they’re doing it strategically, going after each proxy one by one — Hamas, then other militias, and now possibly turning their attention to Iran itself, the source of it all.

Even Hezbollah — Iran’s top ally — is now publicly saying they won’t join the war if Iran is directly attacked. That tells you everything. Iran is mostly alone, because even its so-called allies know how reckless this has become.

Claim 2: “If Israel and the U.S. have nuclear weapons, why can’t Iran have nukes too?”

On the surface, this might sound like a fair question but look deeper.

Rebuttal:
There’s a massive difference between who holds nuclear weapons and how they intend to use them.

In Iran, every parliamentary session ends with chants of “Death to Israel, Death to America.” This isn’t symbolic. Iran backs it up with real-world violence through its proxies. They’ve made their intentions crystal clear — they want to wipe Israel off the map. So why should a nation with that mindset be allowed to have nuclear weapons?

Think of it like this: it’s okay for a police officer to carry a gun, because his job is to protect people. But should we hand a gun to an armed robber who already told us he plans to shoot someone? That’s exactly what giving Iran nukes would look like.

The U.S. and Israel having nukes doesn’t mean everyone should. There’s a difference between deterrence and destruction. Iran isn’t seeking peace. They are seeking power to enforce their ideology through violence.


Iran is too small for Isreal to destroy. Imagine , if Isreal was to do the same thing Iran is doing ? Isreal and now Us are the only country that would announce an impending attack to you civilians to move , hence targeting only military installations but Iran doesn’t give no eff about civilians . They delight in blowing up hospitals. Please if you want to Arthur , argue with logic and not emotions or your religious affiliations or sentiments . Ire o

The State of Israel most Nigerians know, is not the real Israel in the Bible. The state of Israel was created by the Rothschild family to fulful their satanic and zionist agendas. There's proof of this all over youtube, tiktok, books etc.

The serfadie and ashkanazi whites whom are originally from Ukraine occupied Palestinian land. The real Israel location of Israel is in Africa and the true Israelites were brown-skinned with wooly hair as stated in the bible.

The average human being is fed anything by the West and they believe it, especially us Nigerians.

Hi Akwa Ibomites

For business reasons, I'd like to know the pain points that Akwa Ibom undergraduates experience with various businesses at their schools or higher institutions

Same goes for business customers and residents/individuals residing in Akwa Ibom.

In other words, if you could change the bad experience you've had with a business in your location, what would it be?

Please feel free to share the experience or more. Thanks.

I’ve been observing the tech scene in Nigeria and Africa for a while, and I can’t help but feel disappointed by the lack of real innovation. Don’t get me wrong—there are a few brilliant minds doing amazing things, but the majority? It’s just copy-paste, especially in fintech. Everywhere you look, it’s another crypto app, payment solution, or digital bank.

Now, AI is the next big thing, and instead of challenging themselves to build something groundbreaking, many are just replicating what’s already out there—and often poorly. Some even use these copied ideas just to raise investor funds, knowing the projects will crash because there’s no real innovation behind them.

Look at the West. Most of the world’s biggest innovations came from people solving real problems. Uber’s founder didn’t own cars but created the largest ride-hailing service. Coursera’s founders didn’t have a physical school but built the biggest e-learning platform. Canva’s designer didn’t chase clients—she made a tool that millions now use daily. Even OpenAI integrated it into their system.

Meanwhile, in Nigeria/Africa, many developers just learn to code and wait for foreign clients to pay them. Why not use those skills to solve our own problems? We have endless issues in edtech, logistics, agriculture, e-commerce, healthcare—yet the few unicorns we celebrate are almost all fintech (Opay, Moniepoint, etc.).

Yes, our government is terrible, but are we also not part of the problem? If we keep chasing trends without original thinking, how will we ever build a robust tech ecosystem that creates jobs and grows the economy?

What do you think? Am I being too harsh, or is it time for African developers to step up their game?

Lovely question. I'm curious to know if you've got any ideas of what could easily be built without needing any funding from external sources i.e. sum'n that would pop.

Seun:
Hello Guys,

I'm throwing this question to you because it's very important. Every time I ask, "how is Nairaland?" I'm told that it is fine. If I ask what are the challenges I'm told there are none.

So I need to talk to you guys directly about what you think is going on and what you want us to do. I have not had the confidence to make major changes on Nairaland. I have a little confidence now because of AI.

What are your complaints, your challenges, your issues. What are the things that can drive people away and need to be nipped?

Speak your mind, but don't be rude. Thanks.

1) A better CEO.

You allow hateful, divisive and tribalistic posts and comments go through without ever moderating it. Leaving the moderation in the hands of people you can't supervise is not ideal.

I’m at a crossroads, thinking about moving from UI/UX design to front-end development, but I’m not sure what the job market looks like right now.

For those in tech, what niche would you recommend for a UI/UX designer looking to learn something new and make a career shift?

QA Engineer or SDET. Leaves you room to work for multiple companies at once

State your offer and I assume in this case it is beta testing

Data analytics is very saturated at the moment as the supply of skilled workers is 2X higher than the demand, hence why.
