WatchYourSix: especially when their tuition is expensive like mad ….the street rule is ..dont pay school fees before resumption… this is because plans can change very quickly sometimes
Infact the ijębù thumb rule is ….if it has not entered close to exam season that you are sure your kids will be spending the term in that school dont pay…. I just changed my kids school this term, what if I have paid their school fee on time, what will become of it? I am not saying payment of school fee on time is bad but it should be done in accordance with the availability of funds. |

Foreign Affairs › Re: Israel Minister Warns Conflict With Turkey's Navy "Could Happen As Early As Tom by abiolert(m): 10:32pm On Jul 22 |
Two things I've stopped arguing about:
1. Nigerian politics — count me out. 2. International politics — count me out.
Here's why.
In Nigeria, I believe the politician who will truly change the status quo has not yet emerged. Until that happens, I see little value in spending my time arguing over the same cycle of corruption, broken promises, and failed leadership.
When it comes to international politics, the situation is even more complex. We often hear that all states are equal, but in reality, they are not. The international system is largely shaped by power and national interests. If you spend too much time trying to make perfect sense of every action by major and minor powers, you may end up frustrated.
My conclusion is simple: powerful nations will continue to act in ways they believe serve their own interests. History reminds us that before today's great powers, many mighty empires and dominant nations rose, shaped the world, and eventually declined. Most are now remembered only in history books.
The same will happen to today's powers. Nations will rise and fall, but humanity will endure, adapt, and continue to evolve long after they are gone. |

Bluebolt: Omooooo Make I sit down make I yarn una.
I just scrolled through NL today and my heart broke small.
Where are the legends? Where are the people that would turn "My wife burnt rice" to a 7-page war between Religion, Feminism and Jollof experts? 😂
Remember those days: 1. *Politics thread* - 2pm: PDP vs APC. 2:05pm: Somebody don bring tribal card. 2:06pm: Mod don lock thread. 2. *Relationship/Marriage* - "Bros abeg help me" OP. First 20 comments: genuine advice. Comment 21: "My brother, run ooo" with 400 likes. 3. *Automobile* - Ask about Toyota vs Honda. Leave with PhD in Engine Oil and somebody telling you "na your papa get money?"
We had kings of punchlines. The guys that could enter any thread with one line and scatter everywhere. The "damn nigger" guy Slawommir. The proverbs masters, The EnglishLanguage Teachers. The people that treated every post like comedy skit. And those ones that try to scare people with with ghosts tales.
Nowadays everything is too serious. No more banter. No more "see ehn, make I tell you..."
@Lalasticlala @Seun @Mynd44 abeg can we bring back the fun? Tag the OGs if you know them.
What’s your favorite NL memory? Mine was when somebody asked "how to boil egg" and 3 pages later we were discussing the Nigerian economy.
Make una share yours before NL becomes LinkedIn 🙏

FangYuan: Hello House, I am 33 years old and I did NPower(N Teach) from January 2017 to December 2019. I was receiving the 30,000 monthly stipend and I have bank statement to prove payment, since Npower is a volunteer work and 2019 is a long time will it count.
My question is can I use this N power work experience to apply for Canada Express Entry under federal skilled worker? The duties I did were prepare lesson notes, teach and Mark scripts. Has anyone successfully used npower to claim foreign work experience points for Express Entry? What documents did IRCC ask for?
Thanks in advance. Tell yourself the truth, did you even attend the Ntech program fully for you to add it as part of your work experience, well probably those that have used it should tell you.  |

AMINDA: The onus is on the president to make him do so, otherwise, it raises serious questions as to how deep the conspiracy is and inadvertently suggests that Gbajabiamila may not be acting alone. This is not even the second time similar accusations will be arising involving the Tchief of Staff. Very early in the administration, several persons have alleged that monies were paid to secure appointments. No previous administration or COS was embroiled in similar scandal of this nature. Buhari’s SGF, Babachir Lawal, was immediately suspended by Osinbajo who was then Acting President, when the grasscutting scandal came to limelight. Nigerians are watching. Gbaja should just resign. Let him go and rest. |

The guy dey bold to say inn pay 400million as bribe. For what reason exactly!. This country is just a mess. Hon Gbaja should also lay it all bare, something is fishy in these their interactions The guy too has skeletons in his cupboard. How can he admit to giving of bribe which in itself is a crime, well for me I know femi is capable of asking for bribe because he is just like our current Senate president omo, that guy like bribe like 5/6. |
Politics › Re: Nigeria Still Facing Civil War Triggers – Obasanjo by abiolert(m): 1:29pm On Jul 02 |
Former President Obasanjo's warning reinforces a point I made in my undergraduate research: many of the structural issues that contributed to the Nigerian Civil War were never fully resolved. While Nigeria has made progress since then, lasting peace and unity depend on addressing governance, inclusion, justice, and economic challenges through dialogue rather than allowing old grievances to fester. |
Sports › Re: Is The 2026 FIFA World Cup The Most Difficult World Cup To Predict? by abiolert(m): 1:14pm On Jul 01 |
SportConn: For the first time in many years, there doesn't seem to be one overwhelming favorite.
Argentina are defending champions, but can they do it again? France remain a powerhouse despite squad changes.
Spain have emerged as one of the strongest young teams. Brazil always have world-class talent but have struggled to convert it into World Cup success.
England have one of the deepest squads on paper, yet expectations are always high.
Dark horses like Morocco, Portugal, Germany, and Netherlands are all capable of making deep runs.
With 48 teams, a new tournament format, and several rising football nations, surprises seem more likely than ever.
Do you think this is the most difficult World Cup to predict?
Who are your Top 4 favorites, and who do you think will lift the trophy? ⚽🏆 If your write up included Netherlands and Germany that have all been knocked out, then you did a poor job. |

SmartPolician: If you are in Nigeria looking for jobs now, you are in a big mess because there are no jobs in Nigeria. That's why applicants receive regret email. If you go on LinkedIn, over 100 people apply for ONE position within 24 hours. I agree with you, Work in Nigeria requires connection, and recommendations, if you like write the best CV written by an American CV reviewer, the person will still not scale through because there is no work in Nigeria, and the ones we have are slavery camp, called work. |

Ironfaceman: I don't think there are humans any more in the white house. All I see there are vampires.
Putting Nigerian on a list that contravenes forced labor law is laughable. In Nigeria there's no forced labor but people are force to do hazardous jobs because of the high poverty rate and very low profitable jobs.
Any increase on tax tariff on Nigerian businesses Will increase the poverty rate and swell the number of people forced to do hazardous jobs because of hunger That's the forced labour, without proper work conditions and laws backing the workers, I think the Nigerian government should regularizes Nigeria labour laws, if you don't have what it takes to pay your staff don't Open a business. |

Incognito403: There are many terrible civil servants. In fact the good ones are the minority.
Yet, that doesn't mean our government isn't equally or even more terrible.
In fact, our governshould be blamed for these crimes in civil service because the do not punish offenders except they're political opponents. And they prefer to spend fortunes on inflated projects instead of paying liveable wages.
Therefore, the terrible government lowered the barrier of entry to crime and weakened the desire for honesty. I totally support you on this. |
