I like seeing you wailing over good news.

Keep it up

Racoon:
And what is the barrage of security agencies in Nigeria; the Nigerian Army, Navy, Air Force, DSS, Paramilitary Security Agencies doing? Of course they have failed.

So how can the governor of a state enter into a MOU with a private security outfit in another country to violates Nigeria's sovereignty?

Intentional or non-intentional, the act of taking one's own life is termed "suicide".

kingthreat:
A case of suicide triggered by armed robbery. Not everyone has the decorum for difficult situations.

That doesn't mean the woman can not foot some of the bills, but it shouldn't be out of obligation or duty.

Shock and panic have gripped social media after reports surfaced that a newly sworn-in lawyer was abducted shortly after attending the Nigerian Law School Call to Bar ceremony in Abuja. Eyes Of Lagos reports,

The incident was made public by a fellow colleague of the victim, identified on X (formerly Twitter) as @Rhave_official, who appealed for urgent help while sharing details of the abduction.

According to the post, the young lawyer and her sister were kidnapped on their way home, with the abductors demanding a ransom of ₦20 million.

The tweet reads:

“My friend and colleague has been kidnapped on her way home from the Call to Bar ceremony. Please we need help 🙏🙏. There’s a 20 million naira ransom on her and her sister. @PoliceNG @NBAYLFOfficial @DeleFarotimi.”

This comes just days after 4,437 new wigs were formally admitted into the Nigerian Bar during the three-day ceremony, which ran from September 23 to 25, 2025, in Abuja.

The incident has sparked outrage and concern across social platforms, with many demanding swift action from security agencies.

No conspiracy here. It's all targeted at immigrants and people working extra hours than they are allowed to. UK don cast, Lekki, Banana Island, Eko Atlantic, etc have places far ahead of several cities in these so called first world countries. I said what I said 🤦

No quote me abeg, just reach out and let me handle your schedules.

Oga say citizens lack patriotism
.
So who will teach our leaders patriotism?
.
Is it the followers? This is getting interesting.
..
Meanwhile... This Ratel movement of a thing is just a vehicle of relevance for VDM. It's a gimmick to ascend into political toga... In the end it will have political twist.
..
In Nigeria, it would have been better if such movement don't have a face.... I know why I dey talk am.. Trust Nigerians with influence or power of a masses at ur own risk.
Obedient movement was successful till today because it began without a human face and without a human mobilization. It was organic.. Unlike this orchestration by VDM for political influence under the guise of community service....

An adult human being will wake and choose to describe himself or herself as:

Ratel
Wizkid FC
Davidian or 30BG
Marlian

Etc...!



Maybe, Buhari wasn't far from the truth when he talked about "Lazy Youths".

WizardOfNG:
So you do not consider Nigerians having access to the offerings of the numerous financial services, including investments that can complement their labour and hard work overseas, a good thing?

All you can perceive is negatives i.e "more taxes" etc?

Can I tell you, for example, as someone who has one, that the British ISA (Individual savings accounts) is the best ,government-backed home for personal savings that attract no interest?

If I then tell you that UK ISAs pays pittance interest in comparison to what Nigerians can earn if they have access, facilitated by the PBAT Government, to buy Nigerian treasury bills, for example, from their diasporan base would you say that is a bad thing?

The best UK ISAs pay circa 4.3% fixed deposit (refraining from touching your savings for lengthy periods of time) meaning it is the best investment vehicle Nigerians living in the UK can access. Other UK non-ISA investment offer far less yield over a year .

If the Nigerian government then opens up the channel for our diasporans to buy 12 to 24 months fixed deposit treasury bills at 11% to 18% interest returns, you would want our hardworking brothers and sisters in the diaspora to remain cut off from that so you can rant on about taxes when we know your real purpose for doing so is not because you care about Nigerians or what is best for them?

They save in the UK and get low returns. The UK is the winner as it uses their saving to improve the UK.

They save in Nigeria, via treasury bills for example , and get guaranteed high returns, with Nigeria winnings since more money is available for our government to use on infrastructural development etal, yet you have an issue with this?

Meanwhile, bear in mind foreign expatriates/workers in Nigeria have no issues repatriating their earning in Nigeria for use in their home nation because of their financially flexible and sophisticated systems Tinubu is trying to replicate. Yet you still embrace negativity alone.

What of even the limitless opportunities now open to Nigerians to invest directly in the shares, property development, asset banking (land for example), commodity and Forex trading sector etal ?

Nigeria's financial sector, about to blow as Asiwaju has always known how to achieve, is being opened to the huge diaspora sector, that foreign countries mainly benefitted from previously, to now create a mutually beneficial Country and diaspora community partnership yet you frown on those to distractedly talk negatively about tax?

Bro, take time to think of what you have become because this is revolutionary and those leaders who, before Asiwaju, prevented Nigerians from having full and mutually beneficial access to the Nigerian financial sector, whereas they were dutifully remitting over $19 billion yearly and getting nothing in return, are the ones deserving your negative vitriol if you know what this CNN initiative will achieve.

Just watch. You guys will be shamed regardless of how you are determined to be obsessively negative about anything and everything the PBAT government does.

Tareq1105:
Yours is negative negative negative and negative. You never see anything good about Nigeria. It's what you see that you get even in the spiritual. Pls start to see good things and profess it.

Na only nigeria You pay tax and still go Contribute money for transformer Wey no go work..


Bro, suffering dey naija..

themanderon:
Wait, Did they not have laid down procedures should a fire outbreak occur? No extinguishers, fire alarm, sprinklers etc? Does it mean that all those high rise buildings in cms and VI are just big for nothing? Rip to the dead.
Someone's negligence has cost many lives. It doesn't have to be this way......

sammyscholar:
Evacuation during fire outbreak in a high-rise building can present a huge challenge. You would need to get to the ground floor before you can make exit from the building. Elevator may have stopped working and the staircase might not be easily accessible. Also, the smoke of the fire is as deadly as the fire itself, some may have passed out before they make it to the exit.

We are not ready for the 21st century, no fire alarm system, no fire rated doors, no sprinkler systems, no fire marshals
