₦airaland Forum

Truequest:
To Afam that was a nice adaptation, though I think the writer was having fun writing those things. They are real and funny also. But Afam it seems you have so many enemies in the forum.

I don't have enemies on this forum.

However, there are two classes of people that may want to see themselves as enemies anyway.

1. People that claim to know what they don't and when you prove them wrong they resort to abuses and insults,

2. People that insult other people whenever they disagree with them, in my case I usually respond in kind and it has been working like magic.

na.com:
Afam my dear you are simply falling for my game.

So, now that your low level of knowledge has been exposed you are reverting to another nonsense, first the excuse that you were just 19 and now another that you are playing a game.

Good to know that you have removed the senseless advert for your website.

Personally as long as people restrict their opinions and views on facts I have no problem with such comments.

Issues based on facts are easy to tackle because you will correctly appreciate the real problems and proceed to solve them rather than focusing on problems that do not exist in the first place.

Nigeria is on the match to greatness and this is a reality.

Are you just catching fun or are you really serious with your comments?

Sometimes I find it hard to believe that you are an adult to begin with.

I asked you for your job because I just wanted to know a job that would require the services of people with very low level of reasoning, that's all.

mrpataki:
There is mixture of both the truth and lies in your writeup. Nevertheless, what is your own view on the topic you posted?

Do you know that it is possible for one to read up something on this forum and not post a reply if the reply does not make sense?

What's your business with my views on anything for that matter? Yours don't matter and I implore you to do the same thing. Stick to the content.

An interesting piece, enjoy

101 THINGS YOU NEED TO RELOCATE TO NIGERIA

"Don't worry. A sprouting palm frond pointing skywards never makes it to the sky. It soon would relapse to join its mates." - Igbo Proverb

First, the down side of Nigeria. Its economy has predominant characteristics of a third world's. It is No. 35th on Transparency International's rating on the list of the world's most corrupt nations. It used to be No. 1. Thanks to the EFCC and ICPC. NITEL has now completely collapsed. Where NITEL failed, mediocre local independent telephone operators dominated by Indians are carting billions to the banks and their banks in India. NEPA is tottering.

The road networks are in a very, very dilapidated condition. The transportation system in Nigeria is in a big mess. Travel by road in Nigeria has seized to be a thing of joy. By air is expensive and froth with danger of air crash due to the preponderance of molue aircraft in the air. Still, it is expensive. A forty-five-minute flight to Abuja from Lagos costs between twelve and fifteen thousand Naira, ($90-$130) depending on the airline.

Crime is climbing because of joblessness, particularly among young school leavers. Politically motivated pen robbery is still with us. Economically induced robberies are on the rise too. Banks are now robbed in broad day light. You cannot open your favorite daily any morning without reading about a robbery incident here and there. Because it is not an election season, assassinations are on the wane - it looks like.

In spite of all, this is the best time to start thinking of relocating to Nigeria. Nigeria is changing. This is very fast. You begin to notice this at the airports - your first points of entry. The air cooling systems now work most of the time. The conveyor belts work too, most of the times that I have seen. Power systems at the airports fail intermittently but not as they used to do.

The people you meet either at departure lounges or on arrival halls are beginning to imbibe the culture of courtesy. Trolleys, though for hire are now available for the jaded traveler to cart away his luggage. Even the toilets are manned by professionals who say hi to you before use and after. (Some times they hide the tissue papers and make you pay for service.) Inside the airports, touting has been kept at bay. There are banks with ATM machines competing for the business of the Nigerian traveler, at most Nigerian airports now. Modern communications gadgets are on display at every nook and cranny displaying wares, arrival and departure times.

Before you relocate, make sure you have the wherewithal to get back to where you are relocating from - just in case. The reasons are too many. But the first you would notice is how far high on the economic ladder your mates have climbed. And as you know, economic progress has a twin brother climbing the same ladder - social mobility. Your contemporaries have moved and they did so slowly but sure-footedly while you were gone. Your mates dine at the most expensive restaurants and drive the latest model cars - not on credit.

Your mates have bought up properties in the choicest areas of the land. Your mates are to be found in, Wuse II, Asokoro and Maitama areas of Abuja. Your mates have occupied the choicest areas of Lagos, particularly the picturesque sites of Lekki, Victoria Garden City - fancifully called the VGC. Of course, your mates now use their Ikoyi and VI previous homes as offices. It is no more fanciful to say I live in Ikoyi or VI. There are new places of abode in the land - from Kaduna to Port Harcourt and from Enugu to Maiduguri, and your mates have taken them up while you were gone.

If you left over ten to twenty years ago and you are planning to be back, know that you have become unemployable. You have to be self-employed for a long while. Be sure you have enough resources to keep you going through the period it would take you to re-acquaint yourself with your "former" home. Things have really changed - changed for good for those who did not jet out and somehow changed for bad for those of us who took the next plane and left the country.

In Nigeria, your mates in the public and private sectors of the economy, particularly the banking and oil industry, have become highly placed. Most earn the equivalent of between 200,000 and 300,000 dollars a year plus other incentives to wit. There was an advert recently placed in one of the papers for a job opening which warned those not earning twenty million Naira and above, per annum, in their present job not to apply. Most have built their own houses in Nigeria. Most have more than two cars in their drive way. Most live in homes that smack of opulence, with every modern gadget ranging from large sized Plasma TVs to Microwaves.

Most have genuinely saved enough to send their children to some of the best educational institutions over seas, including to the Ivy Leagues. Most are share holders in most of the emerging markets that have been liberalized during the eight boom years (and counting) which we that left, have missed. Most of them have savings in liquid cash that run into tens of millions. Most have invested in the now, very lucrative Nigeria stock market. You would marvel when you have a snippet of what amount of shares your mates now hold. You would shiver in self pity.

If your mates joined politics, they have occupied the choicest of political positions in the land and made new friends that will be hard to dislodge. If you happen to have showed off to them in your hey days of "returning" from America, be rest assured they have not forgotten. They call us mercenaries in politics. It is now their turn to show you, that you can't have it both ways. They have built a barricade and insulated themselves from out side interests - you the returnee being an outside interest that must be dreaded. If you have real or passing interest in politics, you must show it with extreme caution. They would like to invite you to political meetings and discussion only to put you to size.

While not accepting everything they say, when making your presentations, or contributions avoid using phonetics. Avoid such phrases as "if it were in America or Europe." They do not like to hear that. One of them surely will remind you "this is Nigeria" to the embarrassing applause of others, there present. They see Nigeria now as a trophy. They labored for Nigeria while you were gone. They suffered the June 12 crises together while you were gone. They suffered the Abacha era while you were gone. While you were gone, you probably had returned on one or two occasions only to scurry out soon after complaining of incessant heat, erratic power supply and mosquito bites. At the airport, you must have been caught criticizing everything in sight. They have not forgotten your new borrowed accent and the phonetics that do not rhyme.

That you need a shelter to live in Nigeria if you planned relocating to Nigeria is an understatement. There are many ways to do this. It's either that you have managed to build something for yourself in the city you would want to relocate or you could find an affordable apartment. With the kind of money we make overseas from genuine everyday livelihood, it is almost next to impossibility that you could build yourself an abode commensurate to what you are used to. If you find yourself in this position, don't worry, if you endured the pains and worked hard and kept a low profile in order not antagonize your former friends, within five years your will build your self, your dream home.

You need to feed well. This too is an understatement. Avoid going to the supermarkets to get your food - raw, processed or cooked. Buy from the local sellers at the nearest mammy market. Go to the supermarkets and shops to buy the essentials. At the malls, you will find that while you spend a miserable amount to buy your essential needs, Nigerians who are not been tos, buy up anything in site both the ones they need and those they do not need.

This people have so much money. How they make it, you will find out if you endured. Closely related to this is your phone habit. It is very expensive to use the telephones in Nigeria. As you know, telephone calls in the western world are taken for granted. Here, while it's beginning to happen as if it is for granted, it is very, very expensive. To Nigerians who are not used to such freedom of expression, they are spending millions everyday to make phone calls - to satisfy their newly found phone freedom. If you are not mindful, telephone bills may cut into your feeding pattern. If this happens, before long, you will become an object of gossip. You will lose your complexion and weight and they will notice.

You need clothing to cover the body you have labored to nurture while you lived abroad. This also, is an understatement. Nigerians pay too much attention to dressing. Your dress mode can shut the door at you or open the door for you. Avoid casual dressing, particularly when you are going to meet with the Nigerian big man. He knows the stuff you're wearing and could place you based on that. Be simple but neat if need be occasionally be flamboyant. Express yourself. Speak good English, where there is a need, do not use slang such as I wana or I gonna….

Do not lend money. Give out only that which you could afford to lose. Beware of relatives and the extended family system. If you manage to set up a small business, never employ those closely related to you. They will ruin you.

You would need to dry clean. Dry cleaning here is too expensive. You pay as much 300 naira (about $2) to dry clean an inner vest. Think then of what it would cost to do a bunch of laundry. Think seriously of having a washer and a drier installed - wherever you may decide to live.

You must have at least two good cars. That car of yours, which you price so much, is not fashionable in Nigeria. Here some people drive the next year's model before they become common in Europe or the Americas. How they make such money to pay upfront is still the mystery I am struggling to unravel. The roads are so bad and the drivers so ill-trained that if you drove yourself, and not being used to their adversarial/confrontational pattern of driving, your car and you would, in a very short while be a sorry sight. They hit you and beg you. They hit you because you are conscious of driving rules and apply it. They, who do not apply simple driving rules, rule the highway in Nigeria. In a society not used to insurance, and where vehicular laws are not implemented, begging has replaced insurance coverage. Even passer bys would chip in to ask the offending reckless driver to beg you and get on with his life. If they beg you, you must accept. That's your only recourse.

To this end, you must have a good mechanic as a friend. He will introduce to you, a good panel beater (your (n) used car will always need to be panel beaten back to form after constantly being bashed by ill-trained Nigerian road users. Most Nigeria drivers, I hear, buy their drivers license) who will in turn introduce you to a vulcanizer and an auto electrician, here, fancifully called a rewire. You need a vulcanizer because the roads are bad. Flat tires occur very often here than usual. Of all the auto-related experts you will work with, the rewire should be the one you must dread. He is not well trained in the operation of modern day computer induced auto cars. His method of rewiring has set many late model computerized cars ablaze.

You think? Again you are wrong just as you were when you tried to make people believe you knew much about web development.

This is a forum and we try as much as possible to keep information both factual and correct.

What experience were you referring to? This is a simple question.

You cannot claim what you are not unless it is your intention to mislead, misinform or dupe other people.

Keep it real, it's in your own best interest.

Once again, what you think on any issue doesn't really matter especially when such thoughts are based on very limited knowledge.

@nigeria1 abi na nigeriaone,

What exactly do you do in the US?

na.com:
Joint ventures from my experience are not too advisable.No hard feels oh

Lord have Mercy! What experience? Business, web design or development? No hard feelings not no hard feels. This web developer wannabe no go kill person for hia.

If you are bold enough to molest, insult or beat up anybody in uniform then you should be humble enough to receive the beating of your life. Police brutality ke? It should read commissioner brutality.

As a teacher to a large extent she should be held responsible for the actions of her students especially when she was in a position to reject what the students preferred.

Funny enough, it is the same people that complain about posts exposing the mistakes or errors of the West that go about initiating threads like this with the sole aim of targeting a religion.

This is why I maintain that hypocrisy is high on this forum.

Yeah. As regards the newspapers it is such crazy and wrong information like this one that makes me not to use my money to buy newspapers.

nigeriaone:
buluti , take me out of your discuss and face the issue, Buluti, you assume we do not know who you are, We do, So take me out of this discussion.

We? Abeg which people be the we?

bashali:
denex, grafikdon, Afam, now that you see picture of the south east when compare to just Oyo state from satellite , you must have given up. If the senate refuse to create state, the west should pull out of Nigeria.

You shouldn't be addressing us on the forum address those that can take the decision as regards the West pulling out of Nigeria.

Well, at least the Igbos tried it in the past, so it is not new.

iykrion:
Mamajama has no point there, Adedibu was accused of LIKELY BREACH OF PUBLIC PEACE IN ABUJA, IBADAN, PORT HARCOURT and some other cities in Nigeria, so any court within these places has the jurisdiction to hear the case. The offence is a bailable one, so I can't understand what he meant by throwing the case away. The most important thing is that some one has set the stone rolling, it really required guts to discredit Adedibu's words let alone charging him to court.

So, being accused of likely breach of public peace in Abuja, Ibadan, PH and some other cities in Nigeria is now a big deal. Was this why everybody has been calling for his arrest?

I thought many were interested in his being arrested for causing trouble in Oyo State. We are certainly not serious in this country.

All it takes is for a good lawyer to make a case that any of the charges don't make sense and the whole charges will be thrown out of the "courtroom window".

What exactly is likely breach of public peace? So this is all the police could come up with?

chidichris:
afam and co, why is non of you commenting on the deaths of africans as it is evidence in the likes of somali, suddan, siera leone, burundi, rwanda and possibly zimbabwe? is the death of innocent people which you are all against in iraq and afghanistan different from what we have in africa or will it be right to say that the dying africans are guilty and deserve death?

Why bother too much about my opinions on issues?

Personally, your views and opinions don't matter and I easily discard them, learn to do the same thing please.

Then they should bring in peace keepers from Pakistan is China is unwanted by the rebels, chikena.

nigeriaone:
Okey who? Look do a check, Ikeja and Island local govt generate more internal revenue then kebbi, gombe,yobe, taraba,abia,ebonyi,balyesa,nassarawa,jigawa,zamfara . So i may ask should ikeja local govt be a state too? Afam.

So internally generated revenue is now the latest parameter to push for new state? Guy be consistent abeg in your analysis abi na position.

The site isn't opening. Tried to access it 3 times.

From my inbox. Abeg, read and make up your mind on the facts of the matter, paying attention to facts and truth.

It is possible to achieve peace in the middle east if all the parties are sincere.

The killing of any innocent person is wrong regardless of who is doing the killing, on this I still stand.

What is a Jewish state? - by Khalid Amayreh

Seeking to perpetuate institutionalized racism and
systematic discrimination against its non-Jewish citizens,
the apartheid Israeli state has been incessantly trying to
blackmail the weak and vulnerable Palestinian Authority
(PA) into recognizing the Zionist state as "an exclusively
Jewish state."

Some Israeli officials have used terms such as "a state of
the Jews, for the Jews, and by the Jews." Israeli Prime
Minister Ehud Olmert has been quoted as saying that Israel
wouldn't recognize a prospective Palestinian state on the
West Bank unless the PA recognized Israel as "a state of
the Jews."

Israeli leaders are reluctant to tell the world what they
exactly mean by "a state of the Jews," ostensibly to save
themselves the embarrassment of the implied racism inherent
in the concept.

However, the implications in such a recognition are
abundantly clear for those who have even rudimentary
knowledge of the Israeli mentality.

To make a long story short, "Jewish state" means that
Israel has an inherent right to discriminate against its
non-Jewish citizens, especially the sizeable Palestinian
minority, and, if need be, expel them from the country in
order to preserve the "Jewishness" of Israel.

In other words, Israel simply wants to obtain from the
Palestinian leadership a recognition that it has a legal
and moral right to carry out ethnic cleansing of its
Christian and Muslim citizens on the ground that Israel
is and must always remain a Jewish state.

Of course, Israel is deliberately evasive and vague about
its manifestly fascistic designs regarding its non-Jewish
citizens. Israeli leaders and apologists claim ad nauseam
that Israel is a Jewish and democratic state. But this is
a defensive reflex at best and is as mendacious as claiming
that apartheid is compatible with democracy.

The truth, however, is that Israel can't be Talmudic
and democratic at the same time. Hence "Jewish" and
"democratic" are an eternal oxymoron that should never
be used in the presence of an honest audience.

The reason for that is amply clear. Ask any Jew in Israel
or abroad which comes first "Jewish" or "democratic" and he
or she wouldn't to tell you that "Jewish" always overrides
"democratic." Which really shows that "democratic" is no
more than a cosmetic façade that is meant to blur or
conceal the brutal ugliness of the fascist nature of the
"Jewish state."

Another important, even paramount, aspect of this issue is
the Israeli insistence on obtaining recognition as Jewish
state in order to permanently bar millions of Palestinian
refugees deported from their homeland from time immemorial
from repatriation.

In other words, Israel wants to legalize and legitimize
Ethnic cleansing by getting the victims, or at least their
supposed representatives, to bless the greatest act of
theft in the history of mankind.

Thus, recognition of Israel as a Jewish state would be
tantamount to a double national suicide of immense
catastrophic proportions for the Palestinian people.


First, it implies that Israel has the right to expel all
or most of its Arab citizens or at least check their
demographic growth by all means necessary to maintain
Israel as a Jewish state.

And, second, it implies that Israel has the right to
prevent Palestinian refugees uprooted from their ancestral
homeland from returning to their homes and villages in what
is now Israel. In other words, Israel wants to make sure
that ethnic cleansing will win at last.

In light, one is prompted to ask: Can there be a greater
national suicide for the Palestinian people?

In addition, there are a number of other practical
implications which a recognition of Israel as a Jewish
state would entail. These include the following:

1. That only "Jews" can be considered complete citizens of
Israel, and that if an incomplete citizen, e.g. a non-Jew,
wanted to be "complete" he or she would have to convert
to Judaism. This is very much like the situation many Jews
in mediaeval Europe faced, forcing them to convert to
Christianity in order to enjoy equality and find acceptance
in their contemporary societies.

2. That the Israeli citizenship per se is ultimately
inconsequential and doesn't guarantee holders all rights
and privileges, since Israel is defined as "state of the
Jews." Hence, in order to enjoy full and complete and
permanent citizenship, one has to be Jewish.

3. That whenever there is the slightest disharmony between
the Jewish and democratic aspects of Israel, the Jewish
aspect will override and take priority over the democratic
aspect.

4. That Jews all over the world, including potential
converts to Judaism, are citizens of Israel and may well
be allowed the right to vote in national elections,
especially if non-Jewish citizens, gain political influence
in Israeli politics.

More to the point, recognizing of Israel as a Jewish state
also implies a recognition of the moral legitimacy of
Israel's criminal history, particularly the genocidal
ethnic cleansing of the bulk of the indigenous Palestinian
people from their ancestral homeland.

In other words, a recognition as such by the PA would also
imply that the Palestinians would effectively though
compulsively embrace and accept the Zionist narrative in
its entirety.

This would mean that the victims of Zionist supremacy and
racism would have to transform themselves into a sort of
Arab Zionists, very much like Christian Zionists.

It is for these reasons that no dignified Palestinian under
the sun will be able to recognize Israel as a Jewish state
since such a recognition would be incompatible with basic
morality and fundamental human decency.

Indeed, even if such a recognition were to be arrogated
through blackmail and coercion, it would be utterly
rejected by the vast bulk of Palestinians, and treated
like a marriage under duress, which is no less than an
act of rape.

------------------------------------------------------------

The article is interesting and I think the author is right in asking for close associates and friends of Dele Giwa to be interrogated.

Another interesting part is the Kayode man that witnessed a bomb explosion and was not seriously injured.

Can't recall the man's name now (will make it available once I remember it), he died about 3 or 4 years ago, was trained in Germany and was involved in bomb making during them war, from Enugu state.

Now, not meaning to disrespect your neighbor that later became a governor, anyone can claim anything, after all someone came out and claimed that he was the James Onanefe Ibori that was jailed for stealing in the Ibori saga.

NB: Bear in mind that information available to me is already in the public domain as I do not have any privileged information like you so I cannot categorically say YES or NO to the culpability of anyone in the murder of Dele Giwa.

Who knows when the next "A night of a thousand laughs" will be taking place? Someone needs to give the likes of Okey Bakassi a run for his money.

So a journalist (Late Dele Giwa) needed to approve of a plan to eliminate IBB before such a plan could move forward?

I don't know if you heard about the man that built the letter bomb (died a couple of years ago) who claimed he was asked to develop the bomb by the presidency but he never knew what it was going to be used for.

Your statement

Mariory:
You simply don't have the mental capacity. The sequence of events on this thread are visible for all to see.

should read

Mariory:
You simply don't have the mental capacity to lie or to support a lie. The sequence of events on this thread are visible for all to see.

for it to make sense. Visible? Na blind people dey use this forum before abi you don dey kolo small small?

naijaking1:
Remember what a positive initial response you recieved for this article; from me and others?

Unfortunately, when majority of the opinion began to lean toward the conclusion that one can only conserve what he has, you simply lost it, and began going personal against people who genuinely disagreed with you.

If you don't have the capacity to realize when you are insulting the people debating an issue with you, then that is another issue.

Most people like me come to this forum to have fun, relax, exchange ideas, but definitely not to be abused.
If you're hurting people and you don't even realize it, then you must take steps to address the issue on your own.

Your previous experience with people in different threads seem to be the over riding influence on how you conduct yourself in every new topic, but it should not be so.

Every new topic should be an opportunity to agree/disagree, learn new things, and move on, but to you, it's always another opportunity to settle some long forgotten scores- you're probably not the only one guilty of this practice, but you seem to have elevated it to an art form.

Anybody that doubts or wonders why and how I draw my conclusion about you should simply go back to page 1 of this thread and see what I'm talking about.

In the past, I had wondered why a group of 4-5 nairalanders would 'gang-up' against you to the extent of not participating in any thread that bears your name. I told them how wrong it was to annihilate an opposing view, believing that everybody(including you) had a right to make his views known.

For not respecting an opposing view, and trying to change the topic of your own thread simply because you see an opportunity to haul insults at someone who previously disagreed with you, I say that you are no better than those guys who wanted to avoid you like a plague.

Maybe you're an intellectual plague pretending to be open to new ideas, time will tell.

Thanks for the lecture but I advice you practice what you preach.

I hate people who distort facts to score cheap points.

On this forum I have seen people like you come and go and your style is usually the same - insult people that disagree with you and when responded to in kind begin to complain and lie about who started the insults.

Not a single person on this forum can state that I insulted him or her for having opposing views on any issue.

But a lot of people can state that I have responded to their insults in kind and I will continue to do so because it is my right.

So, it is in your own best interest to stick to issues if you want to or insult people if you fancy that, but just remember that there are people that believe that people should be given as much as they are willing to give others, this works like magic as you noticed concerning some people that avoid threads with Afam because I will effortlessly return your insults without blinking, get that straight.

In conclusion, I relate well with people either as friends or as foes so it really doesn't matter how you come across.

Unless you are blind you would have noticed that there are people that I always disagree with on this forum without such disagreements leading to insults. I respect such people, not people like you that think you have a right to insult people and when responded to in kind you start to complain and lie about what you started.

This is a discussion forum where issues are meant to be discussed not a social networking site where people simply come to make friends, chat or gossip.

So, focus on issues and you will be just fine or focus on Afam you will be just fine too only that you will get as much as you give or just join the gang.

My complete response on this topic when a lot of people maintained that there is no power in Nigeria and hence you cannot conserve energy is reproduced below.

For those that see power at all conserve.

For those that don't see power at all (like your folks in Enugu) wait for generation and transmission.

Case closed. I guess this is simple enough.

Unless of course you are pissed off that I did not agree with you that there is no power in Nigeria.

Na wah for this our junk journalists ooo.

From my house I been dey hear the gun shots sef.

8 people, 3 girls and 5 guys.

Mariory:
So you asked for the amount of US security funding for Arab states and then you go ahead and ignore it because evidence of such funding exists? You really would make a good specimen for science. Nature clearly missed something out with you.

As regards to your opinion on me and news links I post, I want to assure you that it has been noted and duly disregarded. You see Afam, much as you like to think it, this really isn't about you or me for that matter. It is about truth.

Weather you click the link or not does not change the truth. It is still there for everyone to see.

The content in bold refers, I am sure you were half asleep when you wrote that because you certainly have no business using the word truth in your life.

Bankole01:
The banks also, should have been the ones who will be at the fore front of installing CCTV to protect themselves and their customers. If they have not already done so, they have dropped the ball and let down their customers.

They, because it is tied to their profitabilty and goodwill with their customers, should be trailblazing in the use and adaptability of this technology!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It seems that you are getting closer to home now, speed up the process abeg, I am really getting tired of the way people dismiss Nigeria anytime something good is suggested.

@Bankole01,

On the bank issue technology is the focus not whether it is profit based on not.

From the minimum capital base to issue of ATM people like your buried the ideas before there were even implemented and now you believe one should not compare the two.

And someone is talking about surge protectors and high speed internet access as being obstacles towards setting up such a system, wonders shall never end.

Signing off!!!

Comments like these were common when the banks wanted to implement debit cards so I am not surprised.

The funny thing is that over 95% of people that oppose any good suggestions about moving Nigeria forward are living outside Nigeria. Is it that they know what we don't know or what?

Or, are they desperately trying to dismiss anything good about Nigeria as a way to justify their staying abroad or what?

Whether you guys like it or not, Nigeria is on the move and you shall see how this country will move forward your level of apathy notwithstanding.

Bankole01, tell this forum if you believed the banks would be able to implement ATMs in Nigeria, be honest, let us know your thoughts and compare them to the reality on ground today.

So much negativity and pessimism.

nigeria1 now nigeriaone?

Dem ban you? If yes, for what? Too much comedy abi na wetin?
