Why weren't diasporan Muslims subjected to similar bureucracies when they travelled down to Nigeria to celebrate Islamic festivities with family and friends?
C'mon! How many Nigerians travel home for Islamic festivals. Even the last Salalah was during the thick of the pandemic.

What will u expect when even dead people voted in his favour, most Americans are testifying of there massive fraud only the main stream media keeps hiding the truth
See person resident in Nigeria talking about "most Americans testifying of electoral fraud". It's that America i am now and no one has used the word "most Americans" when talking about the allegation of electoral fraud. Even one individual that came out officially to file a complaint had recounted his tale and refused to sign the complaint form. It's some Nigerians that do not know their left from right that seem to carry this Trump issue on their head like a market "alabaru".

You referred to Yoruba creation story about Ile-Ife as folklore. Probably not. Think about this!
What does Ile-Ife mean? Translated, it mean the land that expand. And it's where creation started from according to the Yoruba. The land that expand! Now, tell me one thing astronomers that study the universe have discovered about our universe. It is that the universe has been expanding since it was created. Doesn't that agree with belief that creation started in Ile-Ife, the land that expand.

You are right about that. But Dangote wasn't the only beneficiary of OBJ policies. It included people like Otedola and few others including igbo and yorubas. It's some stupid (republican) idea bought over from some Americans that creating some billionaires could help jumpstart the economy and job creation. How many of the billionaires have fulfilled their part of the deal.

This is animal cruelty. How can you force such a big horse into a small tricycle? Don't they have pickups or other large vehicles that they can use? This is why education is important. No educated mind, even if it is at JSS3 level, will think of something like this.
Na Aboki wey dey use dirty open drainage water to wash oranges and sugar canes he will send to the public; or worse dey apply rat killing agents to food that will be sold in the market. All these are on video on YouTube. One of these cases happened by the junction of Lekki-Expway and Aging Road, where you have fruit sellers. Funny, I used to buy sugar cane and banana at same spot when I stayed in an hotel that is just a stone throw away.
Christianity EtcRe: Winners Chapel Employs 10,200 Pastors Across Nigeria by ajl: 6:23pm On Nov 09, 2020
HigherEd:
If Living Faith wanted money, it won't go near the places it ventured into this year. We are talking about deep hinterland with very low economic values. The HQ is going to be footing almost all of their administrative cost. Money in Christian ministry exist in Lagos, Abuja, Rivers and moderately in all other state capital.

The moment a big ministry starts entering Ibarapa, Saki in places like Oyo they can't be looking for money because many of those churches might not be able to foot the bill of their pastor salaries in a month.

Even if they are there for tithe collection.

1) They aren't forcing anyone to give.
2) It is still an economic good and helps circulation of money. If you collect tidbits of money from 2 million members and you use it to take 10 000 people off the labor force then it is of no difference to what the likes of Dangote do na while being celebrated.
So, you are comparing Dangote that earn revenue/profits by offering added value to the economy. Tell me what value does going to church add to the economy, aside from people giving away 10% of their income for nothing in return to some people that offer no value in return. Moreso, they spend more time expecting miracle than doing the hardwork. They pay tithes but not taxes and expect the government to deliver infrastructure. Note that I have nothing against God but detest zealots. Has the increase on number of churches reduce the level of evil people do in Nigeria?

Most of our traditional rulers in this country are crooks..none of them called the stupid government to order when it was killing innocent youths all they do is cruise rolls Royce and gwagons..criminals
But the Alaafin of Oyo did. He even put the blame on Buhari. There is a video of him online addressing youths in Ibadan. The other Obas or Kings were quiet. I am sure Buhari will not invite him even though the Alaafin of Oyo is historically the most powerful king in Yorubaland. However, Ooni of Ife is symbolically the spiritual head of the Yoruba people being the lineage of founder of Yorubaland, Oduduwa. I actually love that arrangement. One possess the political or military might historically while the other has the spiritual might.

YOUTUBE IS FULL OF SUCH INCIDENTS.
Imagine if the hostage victim is a black American. Surely the hostage rescue won't happen or even the kidnap will not take place because the criminals know USA government don't place high value on black lives. I want to believe the kidnapped guy is a field intelligence officer. What is a 27yr old young man doing living in a desert land of Niger? I think he is probably a spy. We know Islamic terrorists control that area.
CrimeRe: Bashir Ahmad Speaks On US Army Rescue Operation In Nigeria by ajl: 4:35pm On Nov 01, 2020
Let us be honest with ourselves. Why did Trump and US media paint a picture as if the kidnap happened in Nigeria. I was reading a story that started with a kidnap rescue in Nigeria but then Niger also come up saying that victim has lived in Niger for 30 years. Be careful of western propaganda. They are always looking for terrible stories to sell once they choose the target. I guess bad news of Nigeria will sell faster. Or should we say Trump does not know the difference between Nigeria and Niger?

I agree, most individuals are not criminals perse...most actions were influence by "Mob" and "Social unrest". If you look at those individuals, individually, you will find out that most doesn't have that boldness to actually loot or commit that crime.

But then, law is law...you don't do the right thing in a wrong way.

If it is wrong for a landlord to forcefully break into a defaulting tenants room and pack out his/her belongings without court permission (I am not a lawyer)..Then it is wrong to forcefully break into wharehouse and loot palliatives... irrespective of Government wickedness
You really don't know what you are talking about by comparing apple to oranges. Let us use this analogy. Let's say a very benevolent individual handed your neighbour a food item to give to you. But your neighbour rather than hand the item to you, went to go hide it in a store and locked up the store, while he go about looking to possibly resale the food item in the market. As all this happen, you are probably jobless and hunger threaten you and your family. As this go on, another neighbour inform you that the food item meant for you is secretly stored in the storage room. What would you do? Will you and your family choose to die of hunger or break the door of the storage to get the food?

In some countries, stealing of food by the poor is not a crime... https://www.google.com/amp/s/theculturetrip.com/europe/italy/articles/in-italy-food-theft-is-not-a-crime-if-youre-poor-and-hungry/%3famp=1
