Not Wema Bank.

SGBN came back as Heritage Bank, yet could not survive it.
thanks very much for the correction, I mixe the two up, wema is still active

Wallade:
Let me help your memory - Societe Generale Bank.

Bank in the days. Remember Okocha's funds was stuck there.
Na the bank later woke up as Heritage bank but being unlucky, the powers that held it fell out of political main stream and as a result, it collapse again in 2014.

Ijaya123:
Access Bank acquired Intercontinental. It was never shut down.
If that is the case, the oceanic bank, PHB and spring bank should not be on the list because they fade away through acquisition, just like intercontinental bank.
PHB acquired spring bank in 2008, then key stone bank acquired PHB in 2011, that same 2011, Eco bank acquired Oceanic bank while in 2012 access bank acquired intercontinental bank.

One big mistake by many people is that they see pastors as aliens with different, or without feelings. Treat every issue independently, regardless who you are, coming for counseling is one thing, you being unnecessarily, close to my partner is another thing. if angels could fell, what is a mare mortal that you trust him with your wife's opueh?
PoliticsRe: Senate Drops Natasha As Diaspora Committee Chair, Names Replacement by alizma: 7:05pm On Jul 10, 2025

Her husband was leading and begging for those chair positions.

Know this, Uduaghan is a powerful name in the south especially with Akpabio heading the position of a minister...they worked closely and he helped Akpabio.

Returning the favor and also helping the promote women in key positions which was one of the pledge of this government.
You mean he was strong to push for those two strong position in her favour but can't put an end to all these drama? Between pushing for those two position in favour of one person and putting and end to these drama, which one is easier to do?

9jatriot:
But how did a first-time senator who did not even resume with her mates, meaning she has spent less than 2 years in the senate become a committee chairman in the first place over more experienced peers?
Two different strong committees at that, she was first chairperson for Senate Committee on local content and thereafter diaspora committee chair. yet someone want me to believe the allegations were false. Somebody was actually clearing road for her in expectation of something and when that expectation was not coming through, the relationship went South.

PoliticsRe: Obi Will Leave ADC, Split Votes And Tinubu Will Win Easily In 2027 - Rufai Oseni by alizma: 8:18am On Jul 10, 2025
DrAkpa:
There is really something wrong with the way you people reason. So you expect Atiku who is spearheading and doing all d groundwork in ADC, to finish cooking the food , and then you obidients with your Obi will come and eat? Abi

Why can't you and your obidients remain in labour party or start up a new party and push for a Southern president? You guys are very very unthinkable
That is where Tinubu is more than your leaders, what is the benefits of winning the argument but lose the fight? Both Atiku and Obi do not have the charisma of being leader of leaders that is another reason why the coalition won't succeed. If you can't sacrifice your interest for another, considering certain prevailing circumstances and you don't have the ability or the grace to have people who are your equal or above you to shield their sword because your name is mentioned in a case, you do not have business being a leader in that circle.

Let the light come back to every part of the East so that many of us who are not from the region but love the region can be proud of it again. If Biafra is not realizable now, it should not be destroyed by its own people. The dream and spirit should be kept alive for the younger ones not destroy it.

FamilyRe: See The Viral Dowry List Prompting Men To Inquire About The Bride’s State. by alizma: 4:36pm On Jul 08, 2025
DIVINEEVIDENCE:
1. Rice, 1 bag.
This tribe no fashe rice.
Its not an occasions food.

2. Yam, 41 pieces.
They place value on yams.

3. Salt, 1 bag.
They are a coastal/riverine tribe.
Salt is symbolic.

4. Fruits, 1 basket.
This tribe produces fruits and is likely into commercial and subsistent farming.

5. Schnapps, kolanut, bitter kola, alligator pepper, Bible.
Trado-Christian religion.

6. Honey, Sugar cane.
Definitely not a tribe in all of Southern Nigeria.

7. Catfish.
Definitely a coastal community, involved in both fishing and farming.

8. Malt, groundnut oil, mineral, 5-alive, sugar, family and kindred/community fees all in manageable amounts.

Likely a poor rural tribe far removed from the capital city.


Verdict: Likely a tribe from the South-South or Middle-Belt.
I like your analysis and deduction is 85% correct. That list is more like a list from Kogi Central.
CrimeRe: My Cousin Was Just Raped And I Don't Know What To Do. by alizma: 1:37pm On Jul 08, 2025
Casham:
My cousin just told me last night that she just got raped on Sunday afternoon/evening (6th July, 2025).

I stay with them for now. She's 18, the first of two daughters and was still virgin (as far as I know). Her only [older] brother is in school.

She's been acting funny since on Sunday evening. She couldn't hold it in anymore and, since there is no one else she could actually confide in, she confided in me. Now she's begging me not to tell anyone and not to cause trouble. She only wants me to help her get a drug (if any) that will prevent pregnancy.

She told me about the man coming to see her in her mother's restaurant and said she was going to talk to the man about getting me a job, but when she went into his car, he forced himself on her.

Honestly I am angry right now! I am angry at three things:

First, I am angry at my family. I have a family where the children are afraid to open up, because if you do, you will be blamed and castigated upon. I understand her fear and apprehension about letting other people know, but I just can't let this go.

Secondly, I am angry at our society. How can a man confidently feels he can force himself on a lady and get away with it? What kind of society do we have?

Thirdly, I am angry at myself. I am angry because I feel helpless. I can't let this thing go. I have to deal with this man, but I don't know how to do it without putting my cousin in a difficult position. I have tried to let her know that it is not her fault and that the man needs to pay for this, but she's been begging me to just let it go. She only confided in me because she's really scared of getting pregnant.

According to her though, there was never any real penetration, but the man (who is a high ranking government official) actually "released" ON her, not IN her. (Does that even make sense?)
How can I handle this issue right now? For me, I am planning to go all out and let hell break loose and let the heavens fall if they have to.
First of all, I just want you to take a deep breath and tell yourself you are going to handle everything you will need to do within the law.

HealthRe: Why Do Doctors In Nigeria Tell Patients Not To Eat After A Surgery? (photo) by alizma: 12:42pm On Jul 07, 2025
Brazino:
What's the rationale Behind our doctors telling patients not to eat for a few days after a surgery is been carried out on them?
If doctors in other parts of the World like In Europe, don't tell their patients so, then why is Nigeria's different?
Could it be due to Technology?
The kind of foods they eat over there is not the kind we eat here, you allow some people to eat here and the next thing he does is order for 5 raps of fufu and probably he gets that stitches torn up.

When the man was busy going around with two boxes from where it was purported that he could launch nuclear bomb at the initial stage of the war with Ukrain, that was when I knew there was nothing like supper power when it comes to his country. Imagine a supper power that could not tell his ally(Iran) that USA was going to attack talk more of assisting with the necessary equipment to defend the attack.
Before the Russia/Ukrain war, while Russia made the whole world to believe it was not going to attack, US maintained it stand, saying that Russia was going to attack, the US even went further to state when exactly Russia intended to attack and boom, it happened as stated, that is called supper power.
When Lion lead sheep, the sheep will perform wonders but if a sheep lead a lion, the lion will run at the hearing of the barking of a dog.
Ukrain and Israel have the US support and they are doing wonders in the battle field.

From what you said, you tend to have phobia for uniform men. Try and have one or two friends among uniform people. This will help you to get acquainted with them and understand that they are human beings too. This is not to disregard them or demean them but to understand them. There was a time I was like you but now I understand them better and I can drive around town for months without any issue. We are friends now because to an extent I now know how to approach them and get friendly

Many people are condemning the man, Oya encourage the woman to go na or marry her.
The truth is that they are poor but presenting the man in the image that he only drop 1k is a woman ways of painting man black. Definitely there are days he dropped more than that, else you would have been happy to go with the 5 children than to beg to be accepted back. While the woman have genuine reason to be scared of having more children considering their financial situation, she needs to approach the issue with better way, the use one contraceptive or family planning can help. Rejecting the man will definitely not help the situation. That's my own opinion
