ednut1: Jamb is like a sprint. University and life is a marathon . I know someone who scored high in jamb and finished with 3rd class.
Your class (we don’t even have it in the US) is the workplace equivalent of your JAMB scores… The reality is that your ultimate success in professional life/career has little (if any) correlation. >
Kukutenla: I'm referring to you. Your stinking attempt to link Obi's take on insecurity with IPOB in his region. He has a much right as anyone else to speak on any matter that catches his fancy whether it's occurring in his region or not. What you should be concerned about is what the govt's response is.
Be careful bro… Dude is going to employ his many NL accounts (4 at last count) to severally attack you. >
Chucks13: Ha ha ha you funny die. Wallahi I don't know how to reply you, may be I should insult you or educate you or curse you I don't knw but I leave that till another time.
Obviously you don’t know a lot of things… But answer how highlighting a part of your comment “changed” it. SMH >
Chucks13: You again? How many time have I warned you to stop editing people post and change it to mean something else from the original?(the bolded) bro this is a fraud and criminal offense editing people post.
Stop it it's a shameful thing pls.
WTF are you blathering on about?!
No one “edited” your post (unless you don’t know the meaning of “edit”).. How did highlighting the part of your comment being responded to “change” it’s meaning?
Dude, if you don’t want folks discussing your comments… Then quit posting your comments on a PUBLIC DISCUSSION FORUM! SMDH >
Ellasure: that amina Muhammad is a fulani irridentist, using her U.N.portfolio to broaden fulani grargra in west Africa. she is seeking clout again in the new government of the day.
she she belongs to old school politics of miyeyti allah with fuani power , she should be discouraged by a good government seeking good reputation for themselves.
Nope! She certainly is NOT…
She’s one of the few Nigerians who’ve served in government and come out with credibility… Frankly, if Nigerians had any sense, they would increase her visibility as a role model for girls (especially Northern girls). >
2mch: Nigeria does not have a problem with Muslim girls going to school in the country except some useless parents and it’s by individual. So our Muslim women don’t need to fight anything. She might want to go and fight that battle in the Middle East. Some Middle East clowns like Afghanistan actually have that law in their country. That is where she should be visiting
Tens of millions of “useless” “individual” parents adds up to a “problem”… >
sako28: You guys need to think smart and wise. Of course they will remove the crude content and then dismantle the vessel. Have you for once imagine the pollution a spill of crude will cause to the ocean water?
Why do some NLers feel the compulsion to drivel?!
Apart from the fact that the news story says absolutely NOTHING about the crude being evacuated, how do you think large amounts of crude would be evacuated without the use of (ship) tankers? You think the Navy personnel there will use buckets to evacuate the crude?
Anyway, below is a video that shows the entire event…. Don’t ever underestimate the STUPIDITY of Nigerian authorities. >
Why brag about destroying a vessel loaded with crude (with attendant pollution)? Why not evacuate the crude, preserve the vessel as evidence, and prosecute the perpetrators?!
Unless of course someone is blowing smoke up our collective arses! >
okuta007: please you know where western embassies are - go and apply so you and your family and friends seeking freedom from your fatherland can move there comfortably BUT…… BUT please leave our people alone- we don’t want your western civilization- we don’t need naked sisters and daughters in the streets whoring.
before your so called “western” civilization came at least most women were married and had all their kids for a husband and they may leave the marriage whenever they feel the need or after giving birth to “ALL” their kids - today we have an epidemic of single mothers and bastard children everywhere in Nigeria and they are so proud of it - The family unit inn in Nigeria is getting destroyed by western influences and most of us are helping them do it by our ignorance utterances and positions
now we have an epidemic of obesity everywhere because of toxic western styled fast foods in Nigeria and people are becoming more unhealthy because of GMO foods imported from overseas (western societies)
those western countries have great healthcare systems to combat the fall out of GMO foods but in Africa we don’t have that so what do you want think will happen to us in Africa 20 to 30 years from now ? Already cancer cases are rising in Africa due to these factors and you are here talking nonsense of copying the west
talking about life span - if western powers do not collaborate with the political class to loot Africa - at least Nigeria today will be half as great as Dubai
i live in America and I have been here for almost 35 years - you can not walk into any car dealership and pay cash of $10,000 or in excess of it without raising IRS red flag and even the car salesman will advise you not to pay cash but pay like in installments of $3,000 monthly so you can pay it off quicker - if that’s your plan
I make this bold claim because I wanted to buy my car cash 3 years ago and i was told that rule - but why does this same rule NOT apply to people like Festus Keyamo who bought a house cash in the USA recently ? you think they don’t know he got that money from government embezzlement ?
let’s even say Keyamo deserves it because he can claim he is a wealthy lawyer before becoming a minister but what about those who have no real jobs or life skills and profession BUt suddenly became billionaire Governors - and after 8 years in office they go to western world and buy £5 million homes ? why are these politicians not subjected to the same red flag treatment a hard working legal resident or citizen of a country in the western world get put through ? answer is simple
They know the source of that money but they really don’t give a f v ck if that politician stealing that money from means more people in Africa will die of poverty, poor heath care, access to basic infrastructure and even starvation- they don’t care!
Your president’s son Seyi Tinubu just bought the house seized from Deziani and payed a whopping $11 million for it - this is Seyi Tinubu, who has not invented anything in his life, nor ever had a real job or business he built other than he is the son of the corrupt and overbearing politician and former Governor of Lagos State - Bola Tinubu, that’s all he is and he can buy an $11 million home in your western civilized society with no qualms but if one Mr. Segun Nobody who works hard like a horse and pays his taxes diligently in the UK wants to buy a house maybe worth £200,000 and pays cash, he may end up in prison for money laundering
Western civilization apologist- why is the west not grilling Seyi Tinubu to prove how he earned that money ? how many rich Britons with “verifiable proof of income” can pay such to buy a house they don’t live in - and not get investigated ?
so when your come here and tell us about life expectancy low rate because in the west people live older - ask yourself if the west has not contributed to this low life expectancy rate by encouraging and enabling corruption in Africa, and indeed Nigeria - to ensure the citizens don’t live better lives so they can die quicker
yeye nairaland analyst coming here to tell me about copying western civilization- na who western civilization help? gerrarrahia men 🤨
Dude, I won’t bother to read the rest of your driveling dissertation …
But suffice it to say I AM A PROUD NIGERIAN… Who won’t allow primitive Neanderthals and crude misogynists stuck in the Dark Ages to define all of us! SMDH >
Kaytixy: the senator is a muslim and the girl is a muslim and the constitution allows for religious practice. If it is against the Nigeria constitution, the Nigeria government would have gone against it. If the government did say anything about it, why are people disturbing
So why did YOU bring up Egypt?!
Nigeria is NOT an Islamic state, but rather an EXPRESSLY a secular state (Section 10 of the Constitution)… Accordingly, religious practice are NOT above the law, and instead secular laws (such as the Child Rights Act) govern.
By way of analogy… What if someone’s religion requires human sacrifice or drug consumption, would that be ok?!
Furthermore, if we accept your logic… If the government does not about LOOTING politicians, “why are people disturbing”?! >
okuta007: that is why the so-called civilized countries do not have people who are married for long and alall sort of feminism have eaten deep into the fabric of the western society that before a husband and a wife have little disagreements the wife calls the police to arrest the husband and the kids are sent to foster home taken away by the Child Protection Service (CPS)
is that the civilized country you want to emulate ? where men are marrying men and women marrying women and kissing themselves on public tv adverts ? where praying in school or easing hymns is outlawed ? where your son or daughter can come home one day and tell you they want to do a sex change and you can’t do anything about it ? where your kids can call the police on you if you try to correct them?
that is the civilization you want to copy ?
And yet the people in those countries generally live much longer than people in yours… While many in your country are locked into toxic and loveless “marriages”, and die in their 40s (or early 50s).
And if by feminism, you mean women are not publicly flogged by so-called “youths”… Or can inherit or own property, and are not beaten/brutalized/raped by their husbands, yes, we should copy that civilization! >
WHAT A BACKWARD AND MISOGYNISTIC COUNTRY AND PEOPLE… And as these so-called “youths” are supposedly the future of the nation, THERE’S LITTLE HOPE FOR PROGRESS! >
Kaytixy: it depends on what you define as abuse. Check history very well, you will see plenty religious rulers in the past who have gotten married to even under 13. You are quick to use oyinbo as a case study. Don't we read every day in the news how children are being defiled in this same Oyinbo lands? You people will always shout that people should be allowed to practice their religion so if he is saying that it is not against his religion you people should leave them alone na.
There’s a reason it’s “in the PAST” (emphasis added)… Most people used to die before they’re 30 or 40 years old in the past. >
Chenu60: VIDEO: Ahmed Yerima Gives Current Update On 14 Year's Old Girl He Married In 2010
Former Zamfara State Governor, Ahmed Sani Yerima has said that the 14-year-old Egyptian girl he married in 2010, when he was 49 is now doing her masters degree .
I feel for those whose job or career security is based on government decisions.
Most (if not all) of our job/career security is based on government decisions… Some are more directly affected than others, but ultimately the entire economy is. >
Penaldo: According to a letter addressed to the Lagos Waste Management Authority CEO by the Ministry of Environment, Mr. Ibrahim Odunbomi is asked to step down as Head of LAWMA with immediate effect.
Long overdue IMHO… Many areas of Lagos are HORRIBLY FILHTY!
