As a Chelsea fan, it is better for Hazard to leave. We have nothing to offer him and he is clearly not a leader the team can rally around. 150 million for him and we can rebuild, the rst of the team is filth anyways.

No.

This constant defence of the indefensible will not fly.

The dues collected are used to "fund events, buy equipments and so on". Which events and equipment? Which of NURTW's audited accounts gave you this information??

Quit with the threats that NURTW members will go back to robbing and looting if their so called union is proscribed today. Nigeria is hard for almost everybody!. If union members go back to robbing and wilding (which they are still doing anyway) and they are unfortunate enough to be caught they will be shot. That is the reality.

At least you acknowledge the role of the Lagos politician in foisting the plague that is the new NURTW upon us all. Call a spade a spade - the NURTW is nothing more than a private army (of ne'er do wells) used for sinister private interests. Don't make them out to be victims of societal neglect. They are a virus and like all viruses they will soon run their course and will be expelled.

Always remember that Nigeria is hard for almost everybody!! Nobody owes NURTW members a living. Or do you?

Are you a member of the NURTW? If not, keep quiet! If yes, then kindly read your charter. They all agreed to the terms and conditions contained in the charter or do you think everyone in the union is uneducated? They have some of the best lawyers and accountants, forget about the touts that are being shown as the face of NURTW, the leadership and upper chambers compiles of well educated men and women. Like I said earlier, in a sane country there would be no need for such aggressive tactics or unions but government has failed hence people form unions to protect themselves. Even in the USA where some unions still exists, if you don't pay your dues, you lose certain protections and rights. The problem is not the union, it is the way they are enforcing compliance, if you think the rate of robberies in Lagos is higher now or as high as the 90s then my friend you've been living under a rock....lol

The instagram account is a pseudo account usually used by trolls to cause mischief. Anyone truly scammed will not use a fake account, the FBI does not entertain trolls and when scammed the FBI is not the first reporting agency, your local police and police report comes first, next the financial institution where the transaction was authorized.

In my lifetime, I've probably been to over 50 Chinese restaurants, from 9ja to America, never have I heard such ridiculous explanation. This is blatant discrimination and it is being done against the host country and justified by a Nigerian, SHAMEFUL!

What's the alternative? Get rid of NURTW? Do you know what those boys were doing before NURTW came into existence and matured under Asiwaju? They were robbing people on the streets and their homes. The early 90s up to early 2000s is clear evidence of this! Now the dues they are collecting is well within their charter, if you are a member and operate a public vehicle you must pay the dues, the only problem here is that Nigerians are very stubborn. When rules are established and there is no enforcement, it is hard to get people to pay; this is why it is taken by force. The dues collected are used to fund events, buy equipments and so on. If the government should ban NURTW today, I can guarantee those boys will head back to the streets looking for blood. In a sane country, if the government performed very well, there would be no need for such hooliganic tactics by NURTW, people would not feel mandated to join a union that is so aggressive.

This is the kind of journalism we need in Nigeria, not APC/PDP/ABC propaganda. How can you come into a country and deny the host patronage to your business, this is the height of see finish, yepere, ridicule. In Lagos of all places.....Just when you think you've heard and seen it all, awon Lee and Lu dey form oppressor....lol

LMAO intelligence gene.....Who was Albert Einstein's mother? I mean when it comes to intelligence, Einstein represents elitism so where did he get his intelligence? His stay at home mom who could not understand physics or his physicist/mathematician dad who helped guide him into the world of physics?

Further factcheck shows this theory is unproven but some people can continue drinking the cold zobo:

If mere words are enough to snatch your husband or wife from you then belive me, he or she is not worth it to begin with. Not only have you caused your husband further embarrassments but if he is the type that is active on Facebook, you've just created more issues in your marriage.

UEFA is not stupid, they are not going to suspend him till after the tournament. There's going to be an investigation then an appeal, he will play till after the result of the appeal which will only come after June.

Must some people behave like animals? A very serious issue like HIV yet tribal and religious sentiments is dominating the discussion. Whether you are in Lagos, SS, SE or the North, stay protected. Only one life to live, do not allow one dirty mofo to take yours away!

KL Malaysia 17,310 people per square mile

Lagos Nigeria 17,800 per square mile

Not much in it.. And Sao Paulo is bigger and more dense than Lagos..

Nigerians and excuses.. My people I weep for thee

Average city not most advanced city.

nograv:
Cities in Nigeria?? Thats not hard to do, the worst cities in countries like Vietnam or Lebanon are ahead of Nigerian cities even lagos..

We dont have one city in this country that compares to any of the greatest cities in the world..

Malaysians have Kuala Lumpur that can be compared to any major cities..

Sao Paolo in Brazil looks like New York in many parts..

The above are developing countries.. Stop making excuses Jare...

What's the population of the average city in Vietnam or Malaysia?

Wetin concern Fowler with Lagos taxation?

TheKingIsHere:
The money you get from the proceeds of the house sale will be shared. You can't beat the system easily

It won't as long as the sale was well before the divorce. All he has to say is that it was spent on taking care of the family.

bigmo1:
But what if she refuses to relocate after selling d house, or d buyer refuses to buy because of occupants. I think u should approach a bank for a loan almost equivalent of d value of the house, default on d loan. The bank will help u evacuate ur wife from the house. Lobatan

That's another good idea!

The mistake the man made was also punishing the children. A smart man thinks ahead, you would have noticed problems with your spouse a long time before the divorce. Just relocate to a rented flat, sell the properties and then get a divorce. No judge in the world can question you. The troubling piece here is that the man does not give a bleep about the children.....this is sad!

gypsey:
Okay, i see. So Nigeria is still Corrupt then

Very very...In fact corruption is our national anthem

gypsey:
So you Judge people by their looks? So Tell us how the man is supposed to look.


Would it be okay by you?. if i say Nobody will.take you serious the Way you look.

Not his physical look but situational. Look at the so called building they are fighting over, look at the so called landlord. All police would do is use them to make more money. Unless he has someone inside the police force, no area commander would take him seriously unless he can part with some cash.

MrMcJay:
Na una sabi.

You too, you're fighting like an illiterate.

Write a petition to the Area commander on a Thursday and they'll pick her on Friday afternoon. She won't be able to make bail till Monday.

After spending the weekend in police cell, it's either she meets Christ or Christ meets her. Either way, she would come out with the fear of God.

You're funny, look at the man well well and ask yourself, which area commander would take him seriously? Nothing goes for nothing in 9ja....lol

Here we go again, the chest beaters have started again. They've lost the presidency so all eyes is now on Lagos. We never finisih 2019 fiasco they are already planning 2023 with propaganda......SMH!

Oh your father is one of them na thunder go kill your father, mother and your generations.

Oshey, Thor god of thunder

It's all part of campaigning, whetehr it is rice or money, 9ja people will not vote for you if you don't spend. Forget big grammar and ideas, they'll tell you, bros wein you bring? . To those saying civil servants, some of them make less than 30k per month, a bag of rice costs how much? Dignity will not put food on the table!

Jetrue3oo:
He never become Governor yet but e don start to command his slave beggers civil servants.

Is this not treason? >

The real treason is your father allowing you to come to this world and constitute nusiance on social media

Fake....EA has issued no such card!

jesusjnr:
Ok let's bring it home, so if you were giving Nigeria, to manage as at the time this administration started in 2015, or America when Trump took over in 2016 I think, which would you have chosen?

Or which would have been easier for you to manage?

America is a lot harder to manage because the population is higher, the systems are more complicated and the people won't allow you to get away with laziness or incompetency. Look at the numerous lawsuits against Trump and members of his cabinet. Look at the Mueller investigation, the multiple hearings on Capitol Hill and the constan t bashing by the media. If a Trump was to rule Nigeria, all he needs to do is fix just one problem and he'll be termed the greatest president in Nigeria's history. For example,electricity for 12 hours a day or the end of Boko Haram. The only things dragging Nigeria back is that the people are cowards and the politicians are evil!

jesusjnr:
Yeah! I know you would take that over only the menace of boko haram all day, right?

You that knows something?

The ignorance of the ignorant!

I mean if your life is worthless and you prefer to die of drug overdose or being killed by a gang, no problem! As for me, I prefer none of them, no Boko Haram, no gun violence, no drug addiction.....Peace!

LordVoldermort:
That wasn't love it was force anyone who spoke up against the way things were run would be pounded

People were forced to tolerate each other the minute the dictatorship ended tolerance ended

The military could care less about your love for your neighbor. The love existed due to people realizing we are all one. There was a greater threat, a greater fear, a greater enemy. Trust me if military should take over today, all these talks of Biafra, marginalization and so on will die down real quick, suddenly Yorubas will look more acceptable to Igbos and vice versa, it's just how the human brain works.

Godskidk:
Are you a Yoruba guy? Then today I tell you, I've seen a sensible Yoruba on Nairaland...
All in all, you're a sensible Nigerian for not resorting to insults... However, what I said about history really happened... And it's not a story but a witnessed event

I witnessed it too and it was not begging. It was mutual love betwen the community and the Igbo traders, love that sadly no longer exists today. Back then we all had a common enemy, the military....lol

Godskidk:
Exactly @bolded... If we fail to learn from history, history tends to repeat itself... In the late 90's, during the riot... Igbos were asked by the Lagos host communities to leave... They left... But it was the leaders of these same communities that still begged them to return... Igbos are natural hustlers and they are talented in business...

Is that the story your popman told you? Because I believe you were so young then to even remember anything....lol. You guys overestimate your importance and it's the reason why the senseless ones among Yorubas treat you all like scum but the ones with sense do value your importance but abeg take it easy with the chest beating
