This is not the solution
I heard in a Barber's association meeting someone was making a suggestion dat since minimum wage is now 70k dey should also increase their service from 1500 to 3000.......
Just 15% of Nigerians are government workers, will average private school teachers also receive 70k? Then d owner will increase school fee to 100k per term.....
Reduce fuel price to 300/L and see magic.....

A reduction in fuel price is never the solution to such problem...Crude is an internationally sold commodity and the value is dictated by the market...
We driving towards CNG , the earlier this conversion the better. It's even more better we sell 70% of our crude for foreign exchange, than refining to be consumed locally, when their is a better and cheaper option. Mind you , Crude is the only thing we produce to a reasonable extent as a Nation.

Where are all the so called IGR generated by Ogun state?
They claim Ogun IGR is higher than the entire south east region..Ogun state should have save Nigeria from this international shame and embarrassment.

Why did Tinubu go ahead to purchase not one but 3
Three jets knowing fully well the situation of Nigeria economy where did the money come from?

Finally what's the essence of still maintaining diplomatic or slavery relationship with western countries like France and USA ? Why can't we cut ties with them like Burkina Faso, Mali and Chad have done?
This shows that USA have something damaging against Tinubu and they are using it to control his government like puppet..

Yet again APC government a Yoruba/Hausa/Fulanis party has brought shame to this country...

This caught my attention, and I think you need study some development history before saying such.
Cutting ties with France, was a good option because France wasn't liberal like the US or UK , and the relationship was mainly parasitic to the mentioned county.

Do I call this a deep inferiority complex or?

I'm surprised to see people take the opinion of a random person this seriously

Either she's speaking the truth or not, she's just one random foreigner and her opinion shouldn't be a reason for anyone to be happy

E be like say u don't know what is happening in other west African countries. Those dudes are living in our year 2005 , they are so relax and still abit primitive.

never a thing to wish even an enemy

Zionmdde:
I just hope everybody will learn to mind their business
Nobody is being deceived. His members know exactly what they are doing and even social media will not sway them. A lot of times people tend to stick where they can get hope. Because minus that hope that pastors and prophets give (fake or original) a lot of persons would have been dead by now.

He should be allowed to sell his goods in peace. Let those that buy it decide for themselves if it works or not. Afterall he is not putting gun to anybody head to buy

Keep quoting me. I am very unapologetic on what I said. Those adults in his church choose to be there and consume his products. In the eyes of the law you can't also prove the originality of anything termed "spiritual ". Because you can't also prove that you have fulfilled the terms of engagement

So in simple terms you can't cry more than the bereaved. If people feel happy going there let them continue.

Shut Up...People who are in problems are genuinely been deceived by people they look upto... If such persist, we will be having many atheist, sooner than you expect and alot of them will be devoted christains.

Bookhub:
Make una dey play. I have watched countless videos on tiktok where Hausa youths were calling on Putin to come and save Nigeria raising the Russian flag you guys really underestimate the north they are smarter than you.

Once the government isn't from their region ,they begin to cry foul...I trust babablu on this ..he won't back down

Magicalsineros:
As a young single lady, probably you're in love with a poor guy and you know the same guy does not have vision. He's not working on any meaningful thing that have the potential of breaking him out of poverty. Yet, you're planning on getting married. Before you do that, take a look at this.
Marriage comes with a lot of financial responsibilities and most times, most good people change to bad people due to the weight.
Once you're married, these are the things you will experience.
1. Most if not all your loved ones will remove their hands from you. When you call them for help, they will redirect you back to your husband.

2. When you meet men willing to help, most of them will demand your body in return and by so doing, you'll start commiting adultery. You might even ended up having a child or children outside your marriage and later DNA might expose you.

3. The love and affection you initially have for your husband will vanished and you will be left with regrets and bitterness.
So, before you say YES I DO, take note.


I keep wondering, why is it so hard for most men to help a woman without demanding for her body?

What's your opinion about this?

Men and women are wired differently, the Importance/Value a woman puts on her private part is the same Importance a man puts on his money, men place little or no value on their private parts.
Even the husband of the said woman looking for help won't render help to another woman without looking for something in return.
It is a sad reality and the earlier we come into terms with it the better for Us all. Do not take gifts or money from a man you won't be pulling off for very soon. Married women should be contented with what their husband's can afford , any man still gifting you while you married is a bad fellow and he is just waiting for a day to have his way.
Just like you outrightly said, men should make money before thinking of settling down, do not drive the said underpaid or non-working woman into temptation all because you cannot provide the basic necessities. No human will love going to bed hungry, not able to buy her child the necessary medications or can't even afford little household miscellaneous and you expecting such person not to think outside the box.
In all of this, Married couples should ensure they plan their life well. Empower your woman with a business ,if you think she is being underpaid, that should be the first step after marriage .

erniok:
One one to steal funds is by using over bloated contracts.

Agreed, this particular case is using state funds for personal projects which is against the law but funneling funds using over bloated contract won't be ruled out in this case if the contractor is asked to provide every detail about the contract and also the contract bidding process.

I understand your scenario. But in this case, it was an individual contract, which have no state procurement backing, maybe except the government house project and provided it was approved by the house , that isn't a case.
Bello took money without Council meetings or approval for his personal gain from the state coffer. If it is for bloated contracts that isn't something to be worry about provided the procument commission and the appointed commissioner have its signature on it.

Beremx:
Another shameless court will soon come out and counter the ruling.
I tire for Nigeria judiciary system.

Congratulations to him anyway

No they aren't shameless, it depends on fact on ground available to the judge. Most especially after such rulings, those whom the judgment was against will go back to the drawing board and attack the loopholes .

erniok:
The concern here is over bloated contract.

No it isn't about over bloated contract, you can't tell a contractor what to charge. Efcc are just creating a case on how Bello spent the stolen billions, but they need the contractor to testify, for him to speak up means nah only him know watin him eyes see for eagle eyes office.
The money he made from the contract won't be asked to be refunded, unless Efcc can prove he knows the funds where stolen funds, which is highly impossible. in order to recover such Efcc will seize the,house.

silento:
And the main culprit is free

You are better than Yahaya Bello in terms of freedom as it stands today . Bello will soon be captured and I pity for him, firstly the court will keep him for a long time in detention without an option of bail . N. Kanu is an example .
I don't know what the running is all about, he have good people to stand as a surety for him in good amount. He must think the court is a joke.

cococandy:
Package the nonsense and go gaslight your mom with it.

Thanks

Only foolish women like u will throw jab at a Prof who grew well to do kids.

Make such nonsense mistakes as what you support and you will be tossed around town from bed to bed.Never mind, you type see no same in that nevertheless.

cococandy:
I don’t even know why Nairaland boys think this is a gotcha. In my ideal world, I want a husband who respects me as much he expects me to respect him. Mutual respect. Mutual faithfulness. Mutual everything.

If I can’t have that, do they really think sitting at home crying over an unfaithful man is better than being single and doing whatever I want without commitment and expectations? I really need them to think about what they feel they are insulting women with.

God forbid I be one of those wives fasting and praying over a cheating/polygamous man. Staying faithful to him and hoping that one day (probably in his old age) when he’s done frolicking with his concubines he’ll bring his sick old and tired body for me nurse.

I 100% support the divorces they’re going through.
Let’s all be mad together.

The,Quote you supporting shows how foolish those women can be and likewise shows how you think. Practically all the women divorced their husband's to share another man's cock and you supporting such . SMH , really don't know your age , but with time you will realize the value of been married ,instead of frolicking with another woman's husband.
With my full chest ,I can say majority of divorced women are side chocks to married men. That is the reality and haven't changed in recent time, only few married men have such level of wealth and stability the crave for and just few numbers of single dudes are doing well, moreover you don't expect a sexualy active woman to sudden abstain from sex.Moreover those men still have different side chicks apart from those married women.
This is a cycle and haven't changed that much , just don't be caught in the trap.
The regret is real most especially If the major reason for leaving your husband was having a mistress and not abuse, insults or maltreatment but it won't be echoed in the media .
And from my observations, Majority of Elderly women don't have an issue with polygamy as far as the man is capable.

SenecaTheYonger:
Them don advice the Werey to leave their marriage if their man breath wrongly.

Now it’s time to fight for another woman’s man

not about that ,majority of women will never leave their marriages if their husband cheats, or even have a side chick or even planning for a second wife , provided the man is loaded.
Most women do leave once the man becomes irresponsible, doesn't pay bills ,insults her at any given opportunity and in turn become violent.
They are fully aware of the hussle outside.

is it me? but eating a meat with it's skin on irritates me. Even fish.

Righthussle:
We will talk when a black man becomes Pope of the Roman Catholic church.

Don't be ignorant, Black have been pope not once .
Not only African continent haven't gotten a pope in a long while, some others haven't.

mannobi:
Honestly every police officer in this country needs psychiatric examination and spiritual cleansing at MFM prayer city because there is one evil spirit in that police force that turns their heart dark as soon as they join the force.

There is no evil or what so ever you tag it, they just feel they are above the law.

Chiefpriestt:
Tinubu effect.

Have nothing to do with Tinubu draft head. People being foolish .

A good one

gidgiddy:
The bloodshed started when your Nigerian authorities kept shooting and killing peaceful unarmed Biafran protesters

I aren't here to defend the Nigeria state, but thr fact before hand shows otherwise... Radio Biafra have been broadcasting for a very long time before the Nigeria government ever got hold of Kanu... Weren't inciting comments made continously on that radio station ? We truly forget the root cause of his predicaments.

gidgiddy:
Nigeria is full of hypocrisy

A Nigerian will go out every 1st of October of October to celebrate his independence from Britain. But as soon as you say you want your own independence from Nigeria, the same Nigerian will call you a terrorist

But I have no doubt that we Igbos will gain independence from Nigeria eventually, the unity of Nigeria is a big joke

People who are fixated on Nnamdi Kanu fail to see the bigger picture, that Nigeria has never worked, and will never work

The pen is mightier than the sword, before N. KANU, there were actually people pushing forward for the actualization of Biafra and without Bloodshed. Once Bloodshed is involve it's a different ball game.
The south East will never get Biafra if the Elites aren't ready to lead .

Lyrics269:
Na mami wata
Keep ur preeq one place.
One of my friends that year bleeped one only for the girl to disappear at night, the guy wan mad.

It have never ben proven a human can disappear (Vanish ) forget the nollywood tales. The girl simply left .

Regardless:
Biblically or should I say according to Jewish customs, once the bride price has been paid, they are now husband and wife. Since sex is only permitted between couples in the sight of God, a couple can technically have sex after their traditional marriage however isn't also better if they take their vows before God and allow a Man of God bless their union?

Sex that you will have endlessly in marriage, what is a few days or weeks that you can't wait till you take your vows before God?

Is God located in a specific place? Even the traditional marriage have God and the gods present... Certain act are significant in attracting the presence of the gods, during the occasion.
As an African man who know the culture, the woman is asked numerous times, if she she on her will brought the said man . Kolas are broken and most often divided among the witnesses from the village , who represents the gods from the fathers sides and once a dim is paid in terms of bride price,the man own the woman.
The white don't have such culture and the only thing they know is the licensesed legal way and that is either the Church or the court.
Nigerians been religious and trying to embrace the white man culture is the major course of such problem and pressure in the society. Most often Churches are licensed and allowed to give certificates which is,recognize by the highest court of the land . Thereby making the need of court marriage obsolete.

Fejoku:
The confusion in Ikwerreland is beyond belief. How can one claim to be siblings with other Igbo clans but deny "Ancestral link" with the same Igbo nation? Is Ngwa not Igbo? Is Etche not Igbo?
By this Punch publication, Ikwerre, Etche and Ngwa historically have the same father and mother. They have tied themselves to the Igbo nation by it. It's expected that they review this publication not long from now.

They aren't confuse, inter marriage at the time of Civil War creates room for such

Lies Lies, no record have been set to scientifically or spiritually prove and individual can appear or disappear.

ItisWell22:
That’s why momsy will always say, “the broom wey them use for the 1st wife still dey back of door, and naim dem go use for the new wife”.

But on a more serious note, 1st, 2nd and a 3rd? 🤔
People dey take risk shaaa… 🫣

There divorce sure, like 80% not praying evil nevertheless... People are blind to facts, even with his rush to marry her after 2 months of dating speaks volume. The man might be a billionaire but really haven't learnt when it comes to such aspect.
Anything she does wrong ,will be centered on I never knew you well and an easy ground for separation.

RealityKings:
And so? Divorcee can't move on with their lives and marry again?

Watin pursue am from him 1st, 2nd, 3rd . will most likely do same to his 4th... Some people should just come to terms that marriage isn't for them , live their single life and most likely have a mature girlfriend.
Unless death took a partner away, marry a divorcee with caution, most especially if they have been married twice.

toffyz:
That's a ridiculous lie 💯

That means all what this BBN guy, I don forget hin name has been saying about this WhiteLie is nothing but the truth.

The BBN guy has a special FB channel where he condemns whitemoney, I was thinking the guy was just chasing clouts ni, so na true. Oga oo

Deeone

bassdow:
Seriously, soon, as in Very soon, Criminally minded Nigerians go see these as opportunity to dress as EFCC or SOLDIERs , DSS , etc to go comit crime.

Why would a government body such as EFCC be operating like criminals ?

What happened throughOut the day that they choose to go haras them at such hour ?

Be like you missed the news where some EFCC imposters where sentenced to 46 years in Jail...Even huspuppy a enjoy life was just 10years. Really not wotk the impersonation

Funkyswagzz:
Funny country. We're are those fuming that yahaya Bello will be dealt with. Can you see what is happing now. Is it not clear that this man will go free at the end of the day?

lol, Bello can never go free . Do not wish your enemy having a case with EFCC. Bello once taken into custody won't be given a bail, he have proven to be stubborn and the judge will treat him right.

DevilsEqual:
This one is convicted and can now be refer to a drug lord

Obidients with incomplete education go about calling a man that was never convicted on drug cases a drug lord

IQ is geographically influenced and that says alot about most of these Obidients

In as much as we will want it to slide and won't want to keep calling Mr president such disgusting name.
Police spokesman said once a person pays a fine in terms of Jail terms ,that person is also an ex convict （I can't lay my hands on that tweet ,right now）.
Tinubu paid a Fine and that was expressly known.

Lovenorth:
These psychopaths like to create tension where there is none

Their is definitely tension, politicians predict real good...They have ear down to the grass roots , they only claim to be ignoramus when it comes to the plight of the masses.
