Don't mind the hypocritical colonists. He is not a dictator and Cameroun is a democracy abi?But puttin and Xi who have ruled for a far less period are. Thie west always potray all who dont do their bidding negatively. Angela Merkel ruled Germany for 16 years and could have still been in power till sate since their constitution allowed it. What isbthe difference with Xi or Putin?RUBBISH

Back to the topic, I see many men dey happy sey woman dey hail them, make una also remember sey women too dey see different cute guys too. No give watin you no go fit take. Control yourself the way women dey control themselves.
I drop my pen!
Women are motivated not majorly by looks but by other factors =Wealth, security etc. How many women go for a cute wheel barrow pusher. However a man of aristocracy will go for a peasant girl for her looks.

He is only happy and interested because now he knows he would have fallen for a relationship if he didn't know and wants to swim like other men, i agree with you though. Any woman with prostitution history is off my limits no matter how pleasant she looks but that's not applicable to other dudes
At least 70% of ladiies are into one form of sex exchange for money. Call it what you will - hook ups call girl etc.

Before you make comments, always take a minute to read the info in the Op. Nigerians generally have a bad reading culture but this one is not part of that. Iunderstand that you're in a hurry to defend a politician because of the hatchet job he's doing for your political gods. But you should be even tempered enough to approach things the right way.
Thank you. It's sad that we live in a nation were people have no integrity and speak just because they are paid to. There was a country truly.

so it is tinubu that is pushing people into gambling that people have been playing since before he was born?

No time u will say it is Tinubu that is pushing people into prostitution which is the world's oldest hustle.

Just sit down dey look n dey blame Tinubu for all your life problem
Fact is more people have started gambling due to hardship. Fir the peanuts they are paying you for your positive narrative for this cursed administration you can sell your soul. As an economist I can tell you that living indices have never been this bad since 1960. Yet you keep on shoving inconsequential data to us. MACRO DEVELOPMENT THAT DOES NOT IMOACT ON DAILY LIVES IS USELESSNESS. A DAY OF RECKONING IS COMING

I want to ask....why must husband die before wife in the first instant....this even reminds me, go to places like lekki,Ajah and big estate like that...ask for the landlord of the house, you'll disappoint to hear that they are no more....man should please take care of themselves rather than acquiring all the wealth and when it's time to start enjoying it..gbam....it's rest in peace .

Just imagine the title of this topic....but why can't it be "CAN A MAN INHERIT HIS WIFE PROPERTIES...but seriously...life no balance.
Men are usually older than their wives in these climes. Like me I am 11 years older than my wife. in such a scenario who should go first? It is in the western world where people of same age tend to marry.

FamilyRe: Why Do Many People Talk Bad About Marriage? by alabo1: 3:52pm On Aug 14, 2025
Instance:
There is nothing bad about marriage.

One thing I know is you cannot be at peace with someone who u share roof with 365 days a year, u must have misunderstandings one way or de other, but how u both settle and pull through those situations determines if there would be a separation.

That being said pray to marry the right person.
There is no right person. people need to go into marriage the same way they go into employment contracts. This will involve careful analysis and exit agreements. We use the illusion of love and societal pressures to overlook red herrings prior. Marriage is a societal not a physiologcal necessity

What an insensitive comment. I am shocked. You must be a truly horrible person. How do you know she has had an abortion? If she has what is your business. How do people like you live with yourselves. I wish her safe delivery

Israel5:
Please (even though I know my appeal with fall on deaf ears too numerous to count in this forum), approach this issue with logic and without prejudice to the people involved.

My wife and I are duly blessed with a son who is in his basic 5 now. Also, we decided to get the daughter of one of my cousin to stay with us. She is one of 7 children. So I wanted to help raise a CHIMAMANDA.

As my rule, every child of same age under my room attends the same school and calls us Dad & Mum. The school part didn't quite seat well with my wife, who had a different opinion, but I prevailed anyway. Because na me dey pay school fees.

The girl is a year older than my son, but due to the level of education at the village before she came over, we made her be in the same class as my son. She met my son in primary 2. Now they are both in basic 5.

A shocker happened: This girl keeps coming up in the class, while my son keeps running away from the top. We've tried extra lessons, even tried changing schools. Now it looks as if the girl is better suited for school than my boy. She reads, spells and memorizes things too marvellous. I bought a dictionary cos of that.

I even buy gifts for her (for coming top) more than I do for my boy, to make him sit up, but my pikin nor send me o. Guy use cry & Woman power make me buy am bicycle. 😁

I would think he's being a spoilt boy, who believes daddy & mommy is there, I don't really know. But I am hopeful.

Now, my major issue is my heavily pregnant wife. She wants the girl to be changed/enrolled at a different school. In her defence, she wants her to be available to help her take care of things. The kid's school close by 3pm. She suggest government school that close earlier. I see sense in what she said but I feel like I'll be unfair to this young girl.

When I tried to have a healthy debate on the idea. Na so madam start to dey talk plenty tins wey I nor fit type.
I have accepted to do her wish from September for peace.

Please, do you see another way I could avoid problems?

Is she right to have asked that I changed the girl's school just because she needs help around the house & her business?
This happened in our household. My youngest sister is adopted. She cane to livevwuth us as a Child and over time my Dad adopted her. In fact my mum resisted the legal name change. Today for us siblings she is no different than us blood and has every right we have. My mother also fought her attending the same school as my younger brother. My dad stood firm and ensured there was no disparity. Leave women.
Be a man and do the right

PoliticsRe: Manufacturing Sector Lost N1.2trn In 4 Years, Recovering Under Tinubu - Quartus by alabo1: 12:58pm On Aug 09, 2025
FreeStuffsNG:
According to Quartus, chemical & pharmaceutical products expanded by N33.9 billion or 2.37 percent, followed by food, beverage & tobacco at N81.5 billion or 2.50 percent.

Other subsectors are non-metallic products (N15.5 billion or 1.72 percent), motor vehicles & assembly (N1.29 billion or 1.27 percent), and basic metal (N3.33 billion or 0.62 percent).



Pay attention to these numbers, cue the information and use it to take position smiley

Cement, textile and petroleum refining are currently undergoing a sort of policy reform. Cement pricing will be more favorable after the big cement companies finish their expansions, textile will be through policies that favour indigenous producers too.

We ain't seen the best of Asiwaju Tinubu yet. The leap the economy will experience in the next few months will make Nigeria a pilgrimage centre where leaders from all over the world will come and take lessons.

May God bless Nigeria for ever! Thank you President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR.
Macroecomic growth that does not translate to
improvement in CPI is useless and always leads to an upheaval. These numbers mean nothing until basic commodities including fuel prices drop

So also is 100k in 2006 cannot buy what 8k can buy in 1987.


In1990, a 50k bag of rice cost N350.

In 2006, a 50kg bag of rice in Nigeria cost ₦6,000.


In 2025,a 50k bag of rice cost N70,000.
Let us do the maths.

6000 divided by 350 gives ~ 17.

70,000 divided by 6000 gives ~ 11.6= 12(approx)


Comparing the two with the space of 16 and 19 years,Tinubu has done better because price went up 17 times in 1990 (space of 16 years to 2006) even with the fraudulent Fuel Subsidy.

In 2025,with the removal of the fraudulent Fuel Subsidy,price only went up approximately,12 times (and things are still coming down exponentially, we pray)



Kudos to President Tinubu for having got the gut to make these hard decisions that brings prosperity to Nigerians soonest..
It is sad that you can use flawed statistics to defend rubbish. Use your model to calculate inflation and CPI between 2923 till date let's see. It's a shame

[quote author=CyracksMrBlogger post=136369283]you Nigerians are so low in intelligence. YarAdua that was popularly called Mr Go Slow for failing to always do the needful until he is practically pushed. YarAdua's best friend then were James Ibori and Bukola Saraki; both former corrupt governors then.
He had the opportunity to remove oil subsidy but further encouraged it by reducing fuel prices so as to pay more subsidy to cronies and friends-a move applauded by many ignorant Nigerians. Any president that wants to subsidize fuel correctly for Nigerians, must first of all fix the country's refinery. Get statistics of how much liters Nigerians consume a day, week, month and a year. Run analysis on this statistics and know how much per litre they are subsidizing and make sure fuel is available for its citizens otherwise it won't work, the cabals will be feeding fat on the money while impoverishing the economy. We are in this mess today because of people like him who are so weak and can't implement simple policies.[/quote

You are the one low on intelligence for stooping to insukts rather than addressing a divergent opinion. FACT: Standard of living has progressively declined since 1999. However the highest deckine has been witnesses between 2023 till date. Even during the Buhari era we never saw inflationary rates of 400-600% for commodities etc in less than 18 months. Let your statistics MR INTELLIGENCE PROVE ME OTHERWISE

It is not all bad we too should learn from this
too many cheap imports from China we too should start to impose tariffs
As far as America is concerned what trade do we do with them apart from Oil?
The learning point is we should aim for zero trade with America
They are unpredictable
You obviously understand nothing about tariffs. Tariffs are paid by the consumer/importers in the country exercising tariffs. The exporters do not pay tariffs at source. Hence the aim is to make foreign goods less competitive. However this has its advantages and disadvantages depending on the self sufficiency level of the country imposing tariffs.
