Over 2.5 dats all I need

Congrats, this one go chop at least 5!

APC would have done what they did. The election wasn't credible

More credible than the past 3 elections especially 2019.....Notice a pattern? Every election since 2003, una dey always shout rigged, only difference this time is that instead of cows and underaged kids, na BVAS and Irev be the catalyst

marksleek2584:
I concur bro. Ridiculous prices flying about! It's so annoying that this guy and that Rice no even play reach Edgar Davids! Or even Gattuso! Agba ballers that weren't even valued in their prime at this outrageous, nonsensical figures.

Yet if Gattuso or Davids were playing and in the prime right now, they could command same price or even more. Evolution does not erase the past, it improves upon it!

A country that can't refine its own oil and yet relies on 80% importation.....Should such a country enjoy cheap fuel price?

Giant of Africa, imagine shouting our oil our oil but that oil needs to be sold to other countries for them to refine and then bought back in order to sell to Nigerian citizens......No be juju be that?

CALM DOWN, CALM DOWN.......UNA GO EXPLAIN TIRE

Noblechykk:
We are talking about doing the right thing and you are talking about pure facts. Do you think I am a novice on how things go in Nigeria politics. Anyway, we just deserve the country we have

Did the comment you responded to argue with you about right or wrong? Did he make any moral justification? He just explained to you how it works and you still insulted him.....Na wa o, some of una need serious chill pill!

Noblechykk:
Stop defending nonsense. Abi una no dey shame at all?

Person gave you pure facts, you dey ask if e get shame....Why e be say you Nigerians no dey like facts even when it is smacked right in front of una? No wonder these old men love lying to una

Amumaigwe:
Naira moved from #400 to about #900 to a dollar within one month of Tinubu presidency. That should be your worry.

And it will stabilize to around 700 which is the true value of the Naira, not the fake rates the Buhari's administration had y'all believing

A country that produces shin shin, a country that can't refine its own oil and practically imports almost everything.....What is there to sustain the currency? Abi you think say currency value is by mouth alone?

E no go better for anyone who asks you to forgive....Abeg continue holding the grudge, the bitterness, the frustrations in you. Perhaps when your papa pass away, maybe then you can finally say good riddance!

Listen my man, forgiveness is not for them but for you, it is for closure. You do not want to carry all that negativity into the next generation. Imagine your kids asking about your parents and all you can narrate to them is curse and frustrations.....NOT COOL!

In the end, nobody gives a flip if you forgive or not, I can bet my last kobo your papa has kids elsewhere and his military training has drained the normal emotions a parent should have for his kids. Look at it this way, be thankful they gave you life, you could have been flushed down the toilet or left inside a condom

Polchiz:
Damage control gone wrong.
That is why the north calls you people bat.
You neither here nor there.

Hush kid.....Grown ups are conversing!

If Tinubu truly wanted Senate approval, y'all think this marshmallow Senate would defy him? You guys still don't understand how politics work, you think Buhari would advice him to attack Niger? I laugh in Swahili.......As Ecowas Chairman he has done what needs to be done, not only will Nigeria preserve its dignity but more foreign assistance could be coming since this could be used to label Niger as a terrorist country and Nigeria needs to protect its borders. The foolish thing to do would be to attack when Nigeria gains absolutely nothing in return!

Bunkbars:
Be logical Man.

Karma they say is a bitch.

You call the last election, Presidential?

When you get reaped off, illegally. Accept it. With your chest.

Were you living under a rock since 1999? Compared to previous presidential elections where cows, dogs and underage children were voting in masses, this presidential election was one of the better ones. Even 2019 election was an abomination compared to this.....Stop the sentiments and face facts, your candidate lost because of the principal rule of divide and conquer......I can bet my last kobo if Obi and Atiku had teamed up, they would be the victor!

Dancebreaker:
So you now admit without knowing it that good governments make tough decisions when economy is seemingly good so that the impact will not weigh too much on the currency. Removing subsidy in 2012 would have meant 9ja had enough reserve and decent income to cushion the inflationary effects.

Simple logic dictates that you save in times of plenty to safeguard lean days in the future. Nigerians and Nigeria had more economic resilience to cope with subsidy removal in 2012 than right now. We could have begun renovating refineries 11 years ago with saved subsidy money.

BUT APC opposed it and protested everywhere. So why did APC spend good 8 years without removing subsidy? Economically, 9ja is not more resilient now than it was in 2016, 2017, 2019 or say 2022, so why now?

So it turns out that GEJ that you people and APC dubbed clueless actually had foresight. But he was from the wrong tribe because some tribes claim monopoly over intelligence and ability.

Remember too, low crude oil price in theory means cheaper price in the international market to import PMS. Meaning reduced total subsidy IF our elite including those in FG right now actually let us have the correct PMS consumption figures and not send half of subsidised PMS to other African countries to line their pockets.

You're still talking about APC, go back and read what I wrote. Until the blame game stops and government does the needful, NOTHING CHANGES!

Dancebreaker:
Just over 200 Naira was lambasted by opposition in 2015, but now 700 is ok?

Abeg my brother, tell us how many more finished industrial goods we supply in huge quantities to China, USA, France, NZ, UK or even ECOWAS countries that we didn't produce in 2015. Valuable goods that we want to now make more competitive in World market with low Naira value.
Fact is economic downturn and suffering affects every tribe, political affiliation, etc. So let's be honest.

200 Naira when oil prices were sky high and the country actually had a reserve. Fast forward almost 10 years later, oil is no longer lucrative, in fact the way Nigeria treats its oil is deadass backwards.

Dig crude oil, sell to outside countries, buy it back from them in refined form and then subsidize the cost to the citizens? As if that's not bad enough, government had to borrow the money for the subsidy......No be juju be that?

We can keep blaming the present administration or we can accept that ALL of them, both past and present are responsible for the predicament! Until we refine our own oil, focus less on importation and more on exportation, nothing changes. Till we do this.....THE SHEGE SHALL BE REVOLUTIONARY!

pretydiva:
Are these the reasons it is considered normal for men?

Societal view is different from personal view, society may consider it normal but as an individual you can decide whether to accept or protest. In relationships just like in life, everything is conditional!

P.S. The point raised actually shows why women are willing to forgive the man......Especially majority of youthful Nigerian women with no value except for making babies and shaking bum bum.

GreatrAnalyst:
Baby's talk.
Baby's babble.

What do you know about manpower and economy?
People who can lecture even your teachers are on public forums sending subtle messages to FG to never go for needless war, you and your lots are on NL rambling in the name of opinions.

Why is US not going for war against Russia leading NATO despite enough provocation from Russia? It is because US is lacking manpower and arsenal right?

Nigeria is struggling economically, then they should go headlessly into war? You think only what is needed to prosecute war is manpower?

Baby with baby's talk.

Stop comparing apples with oranges. U.S cannot go to war with Russia because Ukraine is not a NATO member. Furthermore, Russia does not share a direct border with the USA, if they did, trust me nothing would stop the USA from marching in and stomping on Russia's throat.

You're right that war should be avoided at all cost but stop comparing situations that are vastly different!

. I was born same year. My church, an Anglican church has a kindergarten class for children between 2 and 4 years. Based on your progress, they will recommend when you will start primary school. I started at 5 while my younger brother starts at 4.

Oh nice, for my area most of us home schooled or went to neighborhood lessons until we were old enough to be admitted to primary schools.

tuzle:
guy what u said is wrong. I am not a pdp fan but their was a stat here recently, I think last month that compared the our President Performance since obj and buhari was the worst followed by Jonathan. Yar adua had the most impressive and obj was manageable. So I don't know where u saw ur facts from. Also it is too early to judge tinubu, so I will remain optimistic about is regime even thou things are kind of hard right now.

If Jonathan encountered what Buhari faced, this country would have expired long ago. You people keep comparing tenures as if they all dealt with the same economic and societal issues. For example during Jonathan's reign, oil prices allowed Nigeria to make healthy profits, imagine what would have happened if Covid brought everything to a standstill. With the way the government was spending yafun yafun, dem go borrow money like there's no tomorrow.

Now compare this to Buhari's reign, where oil prices dipped significantly and Covid happened, why were we surprised that the government barely kept functioning? Why we dey shocked when billions are borrowed just to service existing obligations while new obligations were left to starve?

The truth remains that GEJ was 9ja's last chance at stability without mass suffering, his failure led to Buhari's admin being overwhelmed and now Tinubu is facing the same thing. Either tough, seemingly cruel decisions are made now and we face the shege for a limited time or we keep passing the shege from one tenure to another. IF YOU DON'T BELIVE ME, ASK YOURSELF, WHAT DOES NIGERIA PRODUCE? We keep shouting natural resources natural resources, even oil we no fit refine am.....NO BE JUJU BE THAT?

Some schools had nursery level at the primary school so it is possible but I doubt many of them existed in the 80s.

She could have stopped at not flushing and her story would be much more believable but she had to throw in the not cleaning his bum part and now that is just ridiculous......Person wey no dey wipe yansh no fit survive that show for so long......Nobody else noticed his stinky bum? GTFO

onuman:
El Rufai served Buhari administration; was minister under Obasanjo. Tinubu is recycling old people to work with; the same old generation that ate the future of the youths of today.

Wetin concern you, according to you he can never be president so anything Tinubu should stay out of your mouth

blueAgent:
More crap as usual.

Canada welcomes both skilled and skilled.

You do not know, anything about those countries you mentioned.

Every country welcomes both but Canada specifically makes it easier for skilled workers. I still helped 5 families migrate this year alone.

blueAgent:
You just exposed your naivety.

Is population the problem of Nigeria? Is that not suppose to be a blessing?
China and Ondia has 4 tomes the population of Nigerian and they are not complaining.

Canada is inviting ppl to grow its population and Economy.

Is Nigeria the only heterogeneous nation?

Cyprus is mixed ,infact they are presently divide into 2, Greek and Turkish Cyprus, Malaysia has both christains and musilams, they have over 10 different ethnic groups and races, same with singarpore.

Qatar, Kuwait, UAE all have different ethnic groups ,even when they have one religeon Islam, they still have different sects of Islam.

So your reasons are useless to Nigerians present situation.

Go and read about the union of singarpore and Malaysia been the split.

You're spewing jargon! Basic economics teaches us the more mouth to feed the more complex the economy. Canada is inviting people but you failed to mention they only want skilled and/or professional workers. They don't want good for nothing leeches that would drain their economy, 60% of Nigerian populace are non skilled especially in the North. Qatar, Kuwait and UAE have an homogeneous society, aka majority of the nation share the same beliefs and religion!

Please stick to memes and gossip if you don't know what you're talking about, leave the economics talk for people wey sabi....Thank you!

gulfer:
Just imagine what a girl at 14 years is going through in the hands of the illiterate and arrogant man but I reserve my biggest astonishment for this quoted statement from a supposed learned director; just imagine her solution to the issue rather than enlightening their men and women folks on the foolhardiness of following some old and impracticable reasonings

You think the activist would contradict religion and traditional beliefs? You no want make she remain alive abi? Until the Imams and the traditional leaders start preaching these things, nothing will change. The majority of the North takes these things deeper than you and I on the internet. In fact, most of them no get time for internet, their only source of in formation is their Imam or traditional ruler.

icon91:
In a sane country, why will a grown man have anything to do with a minor in the first place?

That's statutory rape & the punishment is really heavy, not knowing one's left from right is a big disease indeed!

Nigeria's age of consent is 18, but in same Nigeria, some culture, tribe...permits the abnormal things to be seen as normal

My advise is parents should try as much as possible to allow their children get western education at least, get exposed to certain things in life, make better decisions as the grow older

Many of you online critics don't do research before typing. The Nigerian government already accepted Sharia law to be the law of the land in certain states, this is the problem of the North and until this changes, the age of consent can never be 18 years of age....Know this and know peace!

Sapeleboy911:
Do you even have standards? You sound like a spoilt brat still feeding from his mother's breast milk. I feel so ashamed of myself for condescending so low to such a level of arguing with a standardless bigot like you. I was hoping that the arguments will lead to educating you on setting your priorities right and at least giving commendations to those who made you who you are, even though they are not perfect.

But here you are bragging to a total stranger, that you don't even know his worth. It's a pity.

This will go down as one of the most useless arguments I ever involved myself in on Nairaland for over 8 years. The time I wasted arguing with you, will be the most unproductive venture I ever attempted this year.

On a closing note, the fact remains, Africans in general, and Nigerians in particular will not find solutions to their problems if they keep, blaming the Western world for their woes. Their problem is within their self and ranks. Know this and know peace.

It's not bragging if you can back it up, no be you call me low life? A complete stranger wey dey call me low life?.....I'm glad you now know your place in life.....NOW REST IJN!

Sapeleboy911:
You are a fool and a fool you will remain. Continue blaming others for your failures. Cheap scammer like you. Just like how your farher died a pauper do you think other's fathers died the same way? You sound too childish to argue with. You are a spoilt brat who know nothing about life. You are just a lowlife and good for nothing bigot. Ewu like you.

Werey...My father is happily retired living in his mansion employing bingos like you to wash his feet . How can I be low life when I'm making more than you and living better than you.....If I'm low life, nigga you're NO LIFE....E don dey pain am

In order to answer the question as honestly as possible, you must first ask yourself will you expect your wife to forgive you after cheating on her?

If the answer is yes then with all honesty, you shouldn't have a problem taking her back as well and if the answer is no then nobody on God's green earth can blame you for sending her back to her father's house but we all know we don't treat marriages or relationships with total honesty hence I say do whatever works for you!

Don't forgive someone and then hold it over his or her head! Don't forgive when you know that person is likely to cheat again and again, it could cost you your own life......I COME IN PEACE!

If this is truly the list then Jagaban has done amazingly well to shut the mouth of those screaming tribalism, religious sentiments etc.
