Made4naijalove: A video of a man crying by the side of a busy road after a woman turned down his public proposal has gone viral.
In the video, the man is seen going down on one knee to ask the woman to marry him. The woman didn't seem pleased and she walked away.
The man starts crying at this point and goes after the woman then kneels again.
His action caused a scene and made people gather to plead with the girl to say yes. Some even lost patience with the girl when she refused to accept the proposal.
Cars driving past slowed down to observe the spectacle.
What a senseless statement from NBC! If these tyrants that called themselves leaders had done well, would they have been abused, denigrated and insulted? Thunder go fire una
Nationwide ko nationwide ni! I believe you came in through rigging system and if you're rigged out, it's still through the same system. Afterall, you guys are birds of a feather that flock together. Same old wine in just new bottles. May God punish you all
Are they mad ni? Setting up vigilante in another man's land? They must be crazy. I think they themselves are preparing for imminently unavoidable war in this country. This move must be opposed by the southerners before the situation gets out of hand.

The professor, what has mechanical accuracy got to do with commenting on news in Nairaland Forum? People like you live uninteresting and vapid life. It's not a compulsion that one has to be educationally sound before making reasonable comments on some arising matters my dear professor. Many illiterate men have better brains than people like you who have ruined this country in spite of all your flaunting acquired knowledge.
Realcash224: Nobody saw a billionaire in Hushpuppi some 15 years ago when he roamed the dusty streets of Oworonshoki, Lagos, looking to wash cars for a paltry N100, and later returning to a food joint where he had beans and bread on credit.
In a philosophical reflection, using himself as a case study, he touched on how a child could feel rejected because of his poor background in his widely circulated 2017 “Letter to the Ghetto Kid”. It was about the same year Hushpuppi became a household name, as he had started using his social media page to flaunt his wealth.
With a sense of pride, Ramon Abass, whose dad drove a taxi and mum sold bread by the roadside in Oworonshoki, would say he represents “every underprivileged kid of the world and especially of Nigeria and of Lagos and of Bariga and of Oworonshoki — where a landlord had chased me and my family out of a rented room.”
Of course, now sounding like someone who has made it in life, he concluded by advising that “dejected kid” not to give up, just like he never did. Entering stardom, Hushpuppi claimed to be into real estate but this had been trailed by skepticism, with many wondering how the 37-year-old had maintained a luxurious lifestyle for years — from acquiring the latest automobiles, including Rolls-Royce and Ferrari, to hiring private jets to take him holidaying across the best spots in the world.
It didn’t come much as a surprise in June when he was arrested in Dubai, where he was based, with 11 of his associates over email scams known in the Nigerian parlance as Yahoo-Yahoo.
In the special operation dubbed “Fox Hunt 2”, the Dubai police had tracked Hushpuppi for about four months, and upon his arrest, it was alleged that the crimes committed outside the UAE, included money laundering, cyber fraud, hacking, impersonation, banking fraud and identity theft worth Dh1.6 billion (an estimated N168 billion).
The police also revealed that 1,926,400 victims were targeted by the syndicate.
Subsequently extradited to the US for trial on money laundering, his lawyer, however, insisted that Hushpuppi “became rich through real estate.”
The real estate claim is what some residents of Ogunyomi street in Oworonshoki would dismiss.
Nigeria is a country of strugglers and whoever survives our horrific existence should be left alone for all are sinners. Nigerian government is the deadliest thief and scammer
