Why are you replying like Ai

Before AI existed, intelligent writers roamed the earth... People actually spoke, wrote and reasoned far better than what ChatGpt and co are dishing out today.

Don't always be too quick to write off your brain or those of others.

Once Arsenal wins tonight, the pressure on City to win on Wednesday quadruples...!

Drawing or losing against Bournemouth officially crowns Arsenal the Champions.

IyaTola:
Football doesn’t care about emotions or “what was at stake.” Everton still had pride to play for, and Manchester City simply dropped points under pressure. That’s football.

As for Arsenal, people always say opponents will “roll over,” but no Premier League game is free. Crystal Palace and Burnley are professionals too, and Arsenal still have to earn every point on the pitch.

Burnley especially won’t just hand them the title. Arsenal may have the stronger attack, but pressure changes everything at this stage of the season.

My prediction? Tight game:
Arsenal 2-2 Burnley.

Nah... Arsenal has no reason or business drawing this game.

They are taking all 3 points... Burnley shouldn't stand a chance at all.

The infrastructures you're using on the entire African continent was built by China.

The phone you're using was made in China.

The dangote refinery that is selling fuel to you was built by the Chinese.

Should I go on??

The question you should be asking yourself is why the US is only interested in "fighting" terrorists in Africa. And why do they also arm and fund these same terrorists?

And why don't they ever invest in Africa thorough innovation and technology. Always war war war.

When you've come up with the answer, you'll delete your ignorant comment.

America can't even invest in America tbh...!

Their economy has been tanking since the Orange cl0wn began fighting with himself and other nations.

Their long time neighbor and brother, Canada, ported to China long ago, moving so many businesses away from them.

Trump will bury that country before his worst tenure is over.

Hmm... So, Nigerians are now comparing turnouts for corrupt criminals who don't even care about them.


This is why hearing Nigerians complain about their leaders remains a waste of time.

You citizens love your corrupt and oppressive leaders.

Everybody is rushing to meet with Oga Xi Jinping.

Even the loudmouthed President of the so called most powerful nation on Earth also went there hat in hand to dobale in Beijing.


So... It took a small Persian nation to make China the World Power.

Wonders have ended.

Pork,dog and chicken are there in the market,less expensive with more protein.TO hell with beef

Be honest... How many Nigerians can afford Chicken, or any other animal protein for that matter?!!

Disappeared?!! To be replaced by what?!! Eggs?!! Fish?!! Chicken?!! Asun?!!

lightwind:
My question be say how did he know the tribe of the person he quoted. How did he conclude he is from the South East or an Igbo in a faceless forum like nairaland where no one knows your ID or real profile details.
I guess they are just guessing, thinking it's only the IGBOS that are on social media spaces in Nigeria.

Very immature set of people

Actually, it goes both ways...!

An average Yoruba online nuisance believes only Igbos criticise and attack anything related to his tribe or ethnicity.

On the other hand, a lot of Igbo online touts also believe all problems in Nigeria and on Earth are caused by Yorubas.

This level of ethnic hatred that took a whole new life under Buhari has seriously gotten out of hand, and needs to be nipped by leaders and elders from both regions.

My own is... Both tribes are not the only people in Nigeria.

JohnAOne:
What is stopping YOUR IBO PASTORS from protesting?

Just like that... Igbo Vs Yoruba.

That's all it comes down to for you guys.

I keep saying it... Igbos and Yorubas are not the only tribes or people in Nigeria!

Some of you just want to be unfortunate in this life.

Mariangeles:
... because Nigerians made them, right?

When it comes to creativity, you'd be shocked at what Nigerians can do.

Lol... I have never doubted our creativity, my good sister.

However, design idea theft is not new nor strange... And, it isn't even unique to anywhere. It is a regular occurence in the world of Fashion, Music, infact Art in general!

That's why you make efforts to protect your work through trademark and copyright protection.

Well... Let those who have faith in such participate happily, and may God grant them their heart cry for their nation.

Now, if you don't subscribe to or believe in this move, just do the one you believe in.

Leave people's opium for them.

Lol... I talk am say a lot of those designs were not original.

The owners should have TRADEMARKED them.

Nothing comes close to Stephen King's tragic masterpiece "The Mist".

That was so shocking and completely UNEXPECTED.

That movie ending deeply saddened me, despite being a work of fiction.

So?!! Is this really something a normal human being should brag about?!!

ufotunang:
. Ronaldo will refuse to.play from the bench...he will cause problems in the team

Then, he and the whole of Portugal should forget about winning that trophy...!

That means he will be retiring without a world cup to his name.

Lol... I like how everyone is coming out of hiding.

Las las, single sistas go plenty in years to come.

In all these, it's a shame how Nigerian Police have remained a tool for the wealthy and powerful to use at their own convenience against lesser citizens...!

That's the definition of a Banana republic.

nairalanda1:
Okay.

The problem is, you sound like the woman who is 25 years old and won't marry until she meets a man that is tall, handsome, dark, owns his own house, is 27 years old, and owns two cars, and earns 40 million naira monthly.

If you want to know how the saner climes improved, it was partly by revolts instigated by angry people wanting to know what the king and the government was doing with their taxes.

It is because Nigerians don't pay taxes that they have time to vote for leaders by tribe and religion. The day they feel it where it hurts, tinubu ad company will see shege.

Plus no one, likes, paying, taxes. Especially in those high accountability countries.


And you think you will get transparent leadership from a majorly corrupt nation like Nigeria. ? Like you said, let's start from somewhere. Use the langugage of tax to make the elite sit up, and the masses really pay attention.

Yesssss!!! My point exactly!

The Leadership must start acting like a proper democracy and listening to the citizens.

You must open the doors of accountability and transparency in order to put your people on board...No need for grammar or campaign.

Simply declare the books open! Show details.

Well, this will NEVER happen sha... Not without a BLOODY REVOLUTION.

So, let's all keep speaking grammar on social media while the nation sinks economically.

Kalulu44:
Hmmmm.... That's right, but honestly bro. In all of them, I still have a soft spot for Rashford. Man can still do something for us if Carrick can tame his excesses.

Rashford is not serious... He practically cut his wages to get into Spain.

Everyone takes lower pay everywhere but Man United and Chelsea.

That says a lot about the management of both clubs.

DaGC:
It's the truth na. If he had said 'no' I would have given names. Sancho is over 240k a week, Rashford is 250k, even Ugarte and basket Onana sef is earning like a star. So many idiots everywhere.

That's what Ineos has started trying to clean up... It's an inherited mess tbh.

United is scrapping high wage bills. That's the main reason why Casemiro won't be extending despite how needed he is, even for next season.

PSG also took that gamble, and it paid off big time... They are spending far less and about to win a consecutive UCL.

nairalanda1:
And all the above accounts for 20-30% of government funding per annum. Most of the rest comes from oil revenue.

VAT raised 7.9 trillion in 2025...bank charges, etc raised less than 4 trillion for a budget that needed 54 trillion naira. As for PAYE...lol. Only 44% (government figures), 30% (world bank figures)..and at the begining of the Buhari regime it was 16% of tax eligible Nigerians pay tax to the government

Most of the country work in the informal sector, who don't pay tax to government, be it at federal or even state level.

Nigeria is undertaxed. Part of it is poverty, part of it is the idea that the oil money...which on a good day can't pass 80 billion dollars...talkless more than 100 billion, can somehow magically sustain us, that all we need to do is block leakages. Well, I beileve we should fight corruption, but if we voted Obi tomorrow, and he ended corruption next week, the leakages being stopped won't improve our fiscal life at all.

And thus, we borrow and borrow and borrow.

Bro, every nation starts somewhere... Progress doesn't happen in a day.

Improving or increasing taxes without fullproof anti-corruption leadership that is transparent will lead to full on resistance.

The poor will happily pay taxes if they know there is accountability.

Every dime paid in taxes can be easily accounted for by an average citizen... That has NEVER happened in Nigeria.

So, you can't be asking for support and cooperation from citizens when you are not ready to be TRANSPARENT in your leadership.

Kalulu44:
Don't mind those average United front men wasting Bruno's chances anyhow

It's a big shame how United front men keep letting Bruno down...! Shame on them!

That's where Debruyne was fortunate... He had attackers that were dangerously CLINICAL!

Draw just dey smell for this game...!

Carrick, you have serious work to do in that midfield and defense next season, if you intend to finish top 4 and win something.

Everyone pays taxes, whether you like it or not...!

You pay taxes directly or indirectly:

1. Direct deductions from your salaries (public or private) to state revenue services and FIRS.
2. Charges on bank transfers, airtime and data recharge, monthly service charges, etc.
3.VAT, each time you enter a supermarket, market, or pay for services.
Etc.

ufotunang:
..he wants to win 2026 world cup

In order for that to happen, he might need to step back from starting games.

Let someone else lead the attack while he plays from the bench.

He shouldn't wait that long... They are winning the League title.

IyaTola:
They are supposed to lift the PL next season but unfortunately I am not sure you people would get t a good manage however Alonso has been linked as he did that in German with Leverkusen, young talent and also the Chelsea team are all under 25.

Xabi would have excelled at Madrid if he had players he could mold... Not the egotistic louts like Viniciuous, Bellingham, Mbappe, and the rest.

These people sef... If you go abroad do honest work, will you die?!!

Sphinx419:
Bleep up betrayal ... we liverpool will make you hate yourself... just the same way arsenal will see the cup and won't touch it...

Choo Alonso betray.....

Betrayal how?!! Was he not available and waiting when you chose to give that bald fraud another season?!!

So, wetin Carrick pishure come dey find for the post?!!

I wish Xabi and Carrick the very best in their respective permanent roles.

Lol... Monarchy and family business disguised as a Democracy.
