The level of religious brainwashing in Nigeria is epic. You parked your bike outdoor, a snake crawled up into the engine to seek warmth and protection and the next thing you are shouting "holy ghost fire" at the snake. Why use the stick to kill it? I was expecting his words of "holy ghost fire" to exterminate the snake. One even poured chemical on the bike, not realizing it could damage metal or plastic parts of the bike. Na wa for Nigerians. And this guy claimed he is an engineer. The person that gave him that project better hire a professional to inspect the integrity of the uncompleted building.

MondayOsunbor:
na wao my former school mate lost his job with AIG Newyork he get 450 k dollars compensation

Was he the CEO? The guy is lieing to you. When you are laid off in USA you only get one or two week of salary for every year you work there. Let us say you work in a company for 20 years, and your yearly income is $70,000. A two week pay for that kind of income is $2,692. So, for someone that worked there for 20 years, you multiply $2,692 by 20. The maximum layoff compensation will be $53,846. I am sure your guy has not worked there for 20 years. More so, AIG is an insurance company. Not sure if they pay that good. There is no way you get that kind of money as an ordinary employee after layoff except if you are one of their top executive; Or you are an employee earning $500k to $600k per year, and you must have worked for about 20yrs. So, ask your friend to tell you another lie. Even if your friend is a manager at AIG, he can't get that kind of layoff compensation.

Coldie:
How do u know he has no source of income, the boy go Malaysia go do wetin?

If the money is proceeds from crime they have to tell us the crime.

I am angry cause I know they just want to seize the money and share it amongst themselves

If you have money in your account that you cannot defend, govt have right to seize it. That's the law. Don't be acting dumb as if you don't know whats going on. A good number of Nigerian youths go to Malaysia to do fraud.

Hedonisco:
Annoying country. You don't know the source of the money and yet you're rushing to freeze the account, initiate forfeiture processes, and arrest the poor woman. Have you established that the money was proceeds of crime?

So someone abroad cannot send money to his own mother again. Everybody must remain poor. Stupid idiots.

Even if you work with oil company abroad, you cannot save up to $1 million in your life time except if you are an executive; or only if you don't touch your salary. It's only Nigerian medical doctors and few lawyer in USA or middle East that can have that kind of money. Not one hustling in Malaysia.

As a Lagosian, I love those who have fighting spirits. Not like Ambode that just threw in the towel and ran away even though the masses were supporting him.

"He gave me N370,000 and a 24-karat gold wristwatch, though somebody stole that wristwatch. The wristwatch was so fine and I kept it somewhere, with the case. I never wore it before it was stolen."

N374,000 in 1991 is about $17,619. I remember exchange rate around early 1990s was N21 to $1. I had a slightly older pal then back in Uni days whose elder brother in the USA sent $1,000 and the guy no allow us rest. Na, so, so $1... $1 he packed inside his wallet to entice babes at UI.

AltCtrlDel:
When the sane minds were protesting ills and evil being perpetrated by the Buhari administration, the same coalition and Northern Youth Movement were busy issuing instead of addressing the main issue. Now the hen has come home to roost

Keep quiet! You lack reasoning ability. Was the arrested guy a part of the Northern Youth Movement? When people get too tribal they can hardly move forward or be objective.

tobijas001:
It's a lie Ajumobi is still alive

So, he has only done 4 tweets with that account. Someone playing pranks with you all. Do you expect him to be the one posting tweets?

Lanre4uonly:
This is sad if true.

Sad? For who? Maybe his family. Let us ask the generality of the people he governed or those whose lives he touched positively or negatively. I no dey waste emotion for any Nigerian politician. I can't even point to any that deserve a tear drop. The only person that died that touched me was former NAFDAC DG who later became a minister and then a senator. That one na real human being!

Toks2008:
The outward beauty of a woman is measured by the degree to which it is aesthetically pleasing or beautiful in terms of sexual attractiveness or desirability. However, every lady is relatively attractive in a very unique way but there is no denying the fact that whilst some ladies are conspicuously attractive, some are just average in standard outward beauty assessment...

Nevertheless, I strongly believe that there are huge benefits for ladies with average physical beauty cos in most cases...

1. Most guys prefer to marry them.

2. They are more emotionally and physically available.

3. They give their men peace of mind cos they are naturally submissive and loyal.

4. Academically they are mostly at the top of their game and rarely get tangled in sex for grades since lecturers don't find them too attractive.

5. One fact no one can dispute is that they make it better in life cos they work extra hard with their brains...little wonder why most of the great achievers are of average beauty.

6. They are more productive cos they don't slay on social media or offline and are less prone to depression over lack of likes over their pics or display of nudity.

7. They usually have very good character and other great qualities the very attractive ladies lack...

8. Cheaper to maintain cos they don't get obsessed with trying to outlook other ladies in looks or spend foolishly on cosmetic enhancement...

9. They have very high self-esteem and confidence in themselves cos they don't have the pressure or fear over their beauty fading away...they have come to understand that "Lookism" is essentially the same as racism or sexism and nothing to do with reality at all So they care less what people think or say about how they look.

10. They are very good in the bedroom act. Whilst most very attractive ladies can be very boring in bed because they don't want to be roughly handled, the ladies with average physical beauty care less and would throw all caution to the wind ... I guess it is a way of making up for not being too hot and this is why many men find them sexually irresistible.

Do you agree with these?

N.B : This is a fun thread so no spoilers biko.

You spoil it all by posting pictures of caucasian women. How do these represent our own women.

minasota:
yet to see any aboki pikin doing well in the diaspora

God help you "poor" people with your usual tribal rants. All tribes with people than rant inclusive.

Gilbertase:
infact na so mesef reason am o. For some reason, i sooo dont believe he is dead. Most likely made a deal with someone at IDH. Help me escape by pronouncing me dead, and get tens of millions.

You are probably right. The level of corruption in Nigeria prison system is humongous. There are people sent to jail who now live comfortably in their homes. They are replaced by some poor fellow picked up by police on the streets. I used know to a guy who was a friend of a friend back in our university days that was arrested at the Lagos airport for trying to export hard drug out of Nigeria. He was born outside Nigeria and has a foreign passport. His first attempt through some godfather was successful and when he attempted to make the move on his own he was arrested and sentenced to jail. The chap was flown out of Nigeria by his parents with the connivance of Nigeria prison system officials. I imagine he was replaced by a "poor" fellow picked up during an illegal police raid. It hurt my soul that an innocent chap is paying for another person's crime. Tell me what nation can prosper when the innocent suffer.

ContractKiller:
Hushpuppi's real name is Ramoni Igbalode Abass.

His childhood/adolescent life was @ No 23, Oworoshoki road, Lagos.

His Father was/is an airport taxi driver.


His Secondary education was at Command day secondary school, Ikeja cantonment.

If true, it go in line with my thought that this chap is from a "poor" background and probably have some "psychological" need to display wealth owing to the fact that he was exposed to poverty and had strong desire from childhood to prove to well to do people around him that he is now one of them. It's sickening that a man will indulge in such display, especially because it's stolen money. I guess his psychological weakness seem to exceed the fear he could had by being arrested after exposing hinself.

Kriss216:
Nice one from the Police.
Why are you protesting? When you were shouting Sai Baba 4+4, what were you expecting
Arrest all of them please!

People like you can hardly achieve progress because enmity and hypocrisy wouldn't let happen. So, because someone clamored for a particular candidate to win an election, it mean they deserve to die and they can't change their opinion. Thank heaven that God is not man.

What generation do you belong to if you name Evan Ikoku as first Nigerian to play in the premier league.

QuickStandard:

What yeye justice, abi you hear say na person kill her.
People die everyday, and until it is proven that she was murdered, you can't say that because you're emotional.

I read last night how, a man and a lady died in their hotel room. How many tread did you open about getting them justice?

Boko Haram slaughtered 80+ on Saturday morning, how many tread did you open about getting them justice.

I dislike most Nigerians cos they just want to belong by all means.

You people can go to America and protest your BLM there.

Thousands have been murdered in Southern Kaduna. How many tread did you open about BLM.

Hypocrites everywhere.

SARS are busy harasing 9ja citizens, how many times have you protested or even open a tread about justice.

I remember the lady at ikotun that SARS killed, when they shot a fleeing young man. How many of you protested.

All I see is low self esteem, trying so hard to be noticed.

Black lives doesn't matter!
All lives matters.
Let's stop this stupid blackmail.

Blacks are even more racist than white.

If not why would a governor appoint a lady from another state within same Nigeria and some stupid morons will be protesting they remove her because she's not an indigen of the state?

Infact let me just discontinue, cos am angry already.

Nonsense and ingredients?



You can't force him to type RIP. Type yours and leave others to their opinions.

Will typing RIP bring her back?

Does this lady look and sound like someone that recently migrated to the USA? Yes, all lives matter but in a system where there is institutionalized racism and a black man is not sure of returning home safe and sound, and large portion are in jail for misdemeanor offences, then it's fair to say Black Live Matter. You sound like one of those Nigerians with no sense of history, who come to the US and start looking down on black Americans even though they were the ones that fought and suffered to ensure whatever you are enjoying today as a black person.

You keep referring to "how many of you have done this or that". What about you? What have you done?

scribble:
Mind your business and stay in school

They wont hear

Modified

Ok now she didnt mind her business where is she?

So my point remains valid.

If she had minded her business and stayed where her parents asked her to stay, she will be alive

So because of that, it was okay to have been killed. You are senseless.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Wetin dey occur for USA?

But what about her parents?

May God rest her soul![/color]

I live in the US and the way I am seeing this, this lady probably lack strong family support. She is just 19y. Often, the system here is so bad that kids in their teenage years have been brainwashed to believe they can do things on their own and this often cause problems at home. For a strong-headed child, he/she may decide to move out of the parents house in order to be independent and live alone or with friends. The fact that she was seeking refuge in a church indicate that things are not going right in her personal life. It's sad that she lost her life. She ought to have been under the care of her parents or family members.

LibertyRep:
Why should there even be any disagreement in the villa that'll lead to shootings.

Shouldn't the presidency be embarrassed instead of blaming some imaginary critics?

The question should be: Is PMB still actively in charge?

I think problems like this happen when you bring in extended family members into the presidential villa and they acts above the rule and regulations because in their heads they are above the law, being a relative of the president. It is nepotism that is Buhari number 1 problem. How can someone who allegedly visited an individual that died from Covid-19 walk straight into the villa without self-isolating. The whole event indicate there are no laid down procedures for dealing with such problem in case it happens. It shouldn't be Aisha or her children responsibility to enforce self-isolation, though they acted simply because those responsible to ensure safety of the president and his family failed to do so probably because the individual involved, the so-called Tunde is related to the president, and it apparent that only Aisha and her children could force him to self-isolate.

donjazet:
Dangote is one of the most evil men we have in this country, people don't see this simply because he doesn't hold political offices.

What many don't know is that this man finances corruption in the country for over 30 years.
Dangote contributes billions of naira to both political parties and influences a lot of political appointments from where he maintains control over our government.

He also facilitates money laundering for a lot of our politicians, white washing their money through his corporations and hiding the money abroad, this gives him direct influence over many powerful and corrupt politicians in the country.
He has used all these shenanigans to build an empire and a monopoly in a country of over 250 million individuals.
People need to read up rockerfella in America and how America eventually dismantled his monopoly.

People need to go and research this man called Dangote and see the evil this man has wrath upon our beloved country.

He is the man behind the scenes that perpetrates corruption for his personal gains, the puppet master behind the curtain stringing the puppets.

Nigerians need to wake up.

You made great points that are all probabilities. You too can go and do the research you requested people should do on Dangote. Especially because you seem quite passionate about your claims. No need passing the buck. You got all it takes. Most Nigerians are living in darkness and have no clue.

How did a scorpion find its way into your wardrobe? What part of the country is that? You are surely not living in a city.

allthingsgood:
U don't know that woman. She's pure evil

But why would someone exposed to a Covid-19 infected person go into Aso Rock without isolating himself first. Isn't that the problem. No one seem to be paying attention to that.

alBHAGDADI:
The number one trending topic in Nigeria today is rape, and it is due to the rape and murder of Uwaila Omozuwa, Barakat Bello and Shomuyiwa Azeezat.

This has led to calls from many who say the best way to prevent rape is to make castration the punishment. While this seems like a good idea, it is not what the law of God issues as punishment for rapists. Is the Bible silent on rape? No. The Bible protects victims and encourages them to speak up and not be shamed.

The Bible gave different scenarios which rape can be said to have occurred or not.

1.) Consensual sex but the lady is betrothed to someone else. Punishment is death for the lady and guy.

2.) Sex that is not consensual which is RAPE. Punishment is death for the guy, blamelessness for the lady.

3.) Consensual sex with a lady that is NOT betrothed to someone else. Punishment is marriage with no divorce.


The first involves the lady not crying out when she knew she could get help.

Deutoronomy 22:23-24
23 If a damsel that is a virgin be betrothed unto an husband, and a man find her in the city, and lie with her;
24 Then ye shall bring them both out unto the gate of that city, and ye shall stone them with stones that they die; the damsel, because she cried not, being in the city; and the man, because he hath humbled his neighbour's wife: so thou shalt put away evil from among you.

The first instance can't be classified as rape because it happened in a place where the woman could have easily gotten help if she had cried. Her failure to do so shows she consented to the act. You must ask "why did God say they should be stoned to death if it was consensual?". They are to be stoned to death because the lady has been betrothed to another man and is considered is wife. So, guys be careful how you go about sleeping with people's fiancee. The judgement is death. Luckily for you, Nigeria doesn't regard God's laws. Sadly for you, God could kill you himself.

Deutoronomy 22:25-27
25 But if a man find a betrothed damsel in the field, and the man force her, and lie with her: then the man only that lay with her shall die.
26 But unto the damsel thou shalt do nothing; there is in the damsel no sin worthy of death: for as when a man riseth against his neighbour, and slayeth him, even so is this matter:
27 For he found her in the field, and the betrothed damsel cried, and there was none to save her.

This second scenario is a clear sign of rape. The man finds her in the field where no one could hear the lady cry for help. The Bible says he forced her, which shows she didn't consent to it. This is rape and the Bible equates the sin to murder. The punishment is death, not castration. As for the lady, she won't face any punishment.


Deutoronomy 22:28-29
28 If a man find a damsel that is a virgin, which is not betrothed, and lay hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found;
29 Then the man that lay with her shall give unto the damsel's father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife; because he hath humbled her, he may not put her away all his days.

This third case is consensual sex because they were found, not that she cried out for help. It is similar to a guy and a lady dating and having sex in secret to avoid the judgement of a sane society. If they are found, the man must married the lady whom he met a virgin. He must pay her bride price and must never divorce her. What if she wasn't a virgin? That case is fornication.

So, guys stays away from the bandwagon calling for the castration of rapists. That is against God's law which says rapists should be killed after thorough investigation is done.

Many who scream for castration of rapists are also guilty of death, for they cheat on their fiance, wife, husband which in God's eyes is punishable by death. That's being a hypocritical judge.

Matthew 7:2
“For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.”

One more thing.

Many today will say the clothes a lady wears have nothing to do with her getting raped. I can already sense a good sum of them already slamming me a rapists for what I'm about to say.

The truth is, everything we do has a consequence, whether we agree or not. When ladies are told to avoid dressing seductively, it is actually for their own protection. Dressing decently and avoiding getting caught in dark, lonely or dangerous places are ways to avoid rape. It is only a fool that will say clothes or dress code should never lead to rape. That is similar to saying there are no longer evil people in this world.

There are evil people who are demon possessed. They don't reason like the many sane guys who can control themselves. A little show of the thighs by a lady can trigger that demon in them towards rape. Guess what? It is not only demon possessed people that rape. Even guys who think they are sane do fall into temptation. So why as a lady do you go about tempting guys and expecting a different result?

Why don't go buy a 65 inch 4K Smart TV and put it at a junction like Oshodi in Lagos. Leave it there and see if you will meet it there the following morning. Guess what? It might not be stolen by confirmed thieves. It could be stolen by someone that has never stolen before but got tempted by the package. So, why do ladies think leaving themselves in the open doesn't have consequence? Oh, you want to live however you want with no consequence?

A bank with armed security guards and cyber security still gets robbed by cyber and armed robbers. Do you think it is only cyber and armed robbers that will rob a bank with its vault at its car park with no security? People that have never stolen before will join in when they see money flying in the air.

When people tell you to dress recently which the Bible also says, it is actually for your own good and others. Don't listen to those celebrities saying otherwise. They are part of the problem. Their business promotes indecency, so they are angry that people are speaking against indecency.

The diva singer who dances unclad in her movies and music videos goes home with millions and under the protection of bodyguards. The females that get influenced by her actions live in notorious neighborhoods where the guys wake up to smoke weed and drink adulterated alcohol which they did before going to bed under the bridge where they sleep. How safe do you think you will be walking pass that quite bridge at night especially when dressed seductively? You might be dressed like a masquerade and still get rape right there. That's why the Bible says to avoid fields i.e lonely places.

Give wisdom a chance and the foolishness that comes with emotions will flee.

There is nothing godly for killing a married woman who was raped and perceived to have consented because she did not cry out for help. In fact I don't see anything godly in killing someone for a crime like rape. The only time one deserves to be killed is if a life is taken by one's action. Human beings wrote the Bible and introduced their biases into it during epoch it was written.

Iweala to the world....


This will go down as Buhari's best appointment and nominees so far....

I don't see any benefit to Nigeria if the WTO is headed by a Nigerian.

gwafaeziokwu:
I don't know how to break this down for you , Enyi. All your reasons for rejecting this institute are sentimental, policies on grand scale are not made on sentiments. China and America has been fighting cold war for years yet they do business together. I am glad you are no where near decision making in Igbo land. Your type can be disastrous in leadership.

I know you studied French at least at primary school level, what was the aim? Presently in Nigeria there are 10 Alliance Française institutes in Nigeria. Has it turn Nigerians to French slaves. What exactly is the impact of French institutes in Nigeria culture.
In Nigeria, you can learn french at the Institut français du Nigéria in Abuja or in one of the Alliance Française in Maiduguri, Jos, Kaduna, Ilorin, Ibadan, Lagos, Port Harcourt, Owerri or Enugu. Why do people go there?

Not only French but a lot of German, Russian even Italian learning centres dot the landscape of Nigeria, has it turn us to their slaves? If yes, then what difference will a Chinese confucius institute make. Why chose one slavery and leave out the rest.

The only reason you got emotional about this is that guys from the west came in with their usual deceit to downplay this institute and make mockery of Ndiigbo as usual. They know their target and unfortunately you were among those who swallowed it hook line and sinker. Watch out the day something interesting will be written about the other Chinese institute in Unilag. They will boast about how they get to attract the best foreign goodies because they are accommodating and sophisticated. That is the day you will hear about how good it is to learn mandarin.

Open your eyes oga. Igbos are victims of xenophobic attacks in many places, but we can't shut our doors on international relations. We can't cry of marginalisation in Nigeria and still shut our doors to international opport unities that came to our doorsteps. We know China like the back of our hand. No other tribe in Nigeria has interacted with them more than us, so what is wrong in giving our young ones who wish to learn this language an opportunity to explore their world. Would it had been better if young igbo students travel from the east to Maiduguri or lagos to learn mandarin.

Sometimes leave sentiments aside and face reality.

You need some education. Start by opening a publicly accessible Igbo cultural center in China.

Anambralstson:
And you are studying English in schools

Igbos do lots of business with Chinese people.

How much of the Igbo culture have the Igbos spread to China. I am sure you are going to be arrested by Chinese authorities for that.

Macro231101:

When African American see this kind of comment they would wonder what type beings are some Nigerians. Go watch a true-life slavery movie or read a slavery novel, then come back here to repeat that statement.

SmartPolician:
The Yorubas love their oppressors

Don't generalize.

Farki:
I agree with him, I don't know why this woman is idolised.

Not different from what you see today where the poor idolize the well-to-do, and sometime their legend remain for the future generation.

There is a lot of things we Nigerians have yet to get foreclosure on. And these include knowing the full history of those that benefited from slavery on our side. That history must be made open.
