More results of illiteracy and unenlightenment in the country of superstitious knicker-snatchers.

panpan:
These types of threads should not be on the front page.
We should not celebrate the killing of harmless wildlife creatures.

I don’t see any rational person “celebrating” on this thread.

But it is important to highlight this kind of news to remind us how far this country has to go.

andymofia:
Good job! But why am I seeing broken lines on the miliking Hill Road? it should be solid lines.

And frankly there should be railings there as well.

SPECULATION upon SPECULATION!

Just do a darned autopsy for crying out loud! SMH

Davash222:
Seems the trailer drivers pay tax to park there. You can’t chase them out after collecting their money. Shame on Lagos government !!!

Abegi quit pulling ish out of your kister!

It’s clear where most of these tanker drivers come from and who they support.

abc115:
Cool though...Gbemi is married, please respect that

Sorry but nothing “cool” about the crude and crass sexism (and misogyny) of many of these comments (and most Nigerian culture).

RIP

If begging was an Olympics sport, Nigerians would haul gold medals by the bucket. Kai!

MondayOsunbor:
Where is WizKid or davido ?

Noise makers!

VERY RICH “noisemakers”

Is the validation of the MILLIONS of people who love and pay (directly or indirectly) for their music really any less valid than the validation of the small group of people who cast Grammy votes? Meanwhile, Fela was never nominated. Another noisemaker perhaps?

kahal29:
Wailers and Haters..... Is this one also Jonathan's project?

It is an NSIA project, and the NSIA was set up by PDP’s Obasanjo.

BTW, I am not a Wailer but feel feel to classify me as a Hater of the Evil Twins APC and PDP.

Looks like carbon monoxide poisoning (carbon monoxide being a silent killer). RIP

greaterlove001:
I've never seen a politician, musician or footballer criticized for flying private jet. But if na Pastor...

Politicians get criticized all the time - often for even less than flying private jets!

And the reason is that they - just like these Prosperity Pastors - often literally take money off the tables of the poorest in society!

Justpd:
Daddy freeze is typing..

Nigeria has an underlying sexist (often even misogynistic) culture, and it is thus unsurprising that most Nigerians are inherently sexist. SMH

TheAngry1:
There are actually more countries on the continent with worst passport values than the ones you listed there. This post is sadly part of the ongoing stupid self-denigration that has characterised most Nigerians. I have traveled the length and breadth of Africa, and I can tell you with confidence that very few countries on the continent can compare with Nigeria on any/every index of measurement. We a myriad of problems, but believe me, we are not what people tell you we are. Travel and see.

Well said.

It is said that those who call their mothers “prostitute” should not be surprised when others treat them as bastards. That’s Nigerians for you.

Whatever she does, she still makes money (and feeds her family).

This why Nigerian law should require mandatory autopsies.

Without privity to the kid’s medical record, I do not think the caning killed him (even though I still want the woman to be punished for child abuse/torture). It is more likely that something that the kid ingested was the real culprit.

This is a poorly-researched and poorly-written article.

It is clear the author(s) is an economics illiterate, and thus one shouldn’t put much stock in this.

The frustration of trying to build 21st century infrastructure for a population many of whose mindset are a few centuries behind.

princechurchill:
We're currently searching for the cleavage as mentioned by the OP

*dead*

itchie:
Anytime I see news like this, I feel like cursing olamide and lil kesh for their stupidity. They don't know the damage they are doing to society with their stupid songs

Blame your educational system - or lack thereof!

Nigerians: busy chasing the shadow that is symptoms while ignoring the substance that is the disease since 1960!

figure007:
He is probably in jail cos of the lady. Not everyone in jail is actually a bad person. Some are there cos of little mistake or been roped along as innocent but got convicted. Alot are behind bars for silly offences

Whether you are a so-called “bad person” or a “good person” is IRRELEVANT in the US criminal justice system (except for perhaps parole and the length of your sentence), it is solely concerned with whether or not you committed a crime (as per the criminal statute).

frozen70:
It's because of our stupid tradition and system

If any lady should try this, her family will disown her and she will be stigmatised.

Will take such “stupidity” anyday.

I believe in rehabilitation and that everyone deserves love, but this should never be an acceptable aspiration for anyone or parent.

KingMicky3286:
Last year a Nigerian guy was arrested in Cambodia, upon hearing the news from his girlfriend, she got proposed by another guy and they got married.

It was the same girl that the guy was sending money for and have also concluded plans to marry on the December of the said year 2017.

The guy was heartbroken.

Serves the slowpoke right (presuming he is convicted) for apparently having to engage in criminality to keep a female. Hopefully, he’ll find a big and buffed boyfriend in prison. SMH

hollywater:
That Guy was probably facing deportation. Only the marriege will save him from deportation.

Or the woman was facing deportation.

BOBORH:
The Culture is in the US differs from ours in Africa and besides Black Americans second home is prison over there!! Marrying a hommie in the Prison is no big deal since even those living outside are on borrowed time,sooner or later some will join others inside!!

You can say that again.

With all due respect to My African-American brothers, far too many of them view a stint in prison as bordering on the normal (if not entirely normal), but then again it should also be acknowledged that the US justice system is institutionally racist and is often stacked against them.

pheonixdld2:
In the US they allow conjugal visit.

Only 4 states in the US allow conjugal visits (California, Connecticut, New York and Washington State).

Furthermore, such visits are only allowed in lesser-risk prisons and federal prisons do NOT permit conjugal visits.

Doubtful a dude in shackles would be in a conjugal prison.

KingMicky3286:
This is heartfelt, true love and respect.

It’s ghetto love. They know no better.

How can any rational person hook their wagon to a sinking ship? Worse will be of dude skips once/if he gets out.

RIP and prayers for her family...

But why were the idiotic crowd trying to destroy and burn the bus (particularly since it appears it was properly plying a dedicated lane)? Tomorrow, the same obtuse idiots would be moaning about a lack of public transportation. ZOO!

She probably was acting like she would in Nigeria where many see kids as their property and/or unpaid labor...

chloride6:
Who told you fish sellers are to be pitied?

She makes more than a lot of people with white collar jobs.

Congrats anyway

Thank you! Abegi tell dem o...

Anyway, instead of giving her token cash, they should have given her a scholarship.
