Nice development FIFA. I'm happy for them.

Just like our politicians, NFF administrators would've come up with a thousand and one reason to still owe these players despite their hard work and bringing glory to this nation.

Shame on them.

Senate passes motion to stop NLC strike.

Let petrol subsidy return if they can't fix the refineries. Dangote refinery has failed to come onboard as earlier promised.

It is because you never lived under army rule.

Even in that Niger republic, army rule was no better in the past.

Nigeria, let's even start from the 1966 coup...which caused problems that led to one brutal civil war, and which we are still dealing with the issues today, it is one of many reasons why we can't have a genuine people's revolution in Nigeria, because back in 1966, people were hailing the Five Majors, until they saw that some of their leaders had died, and some were left alive, and began singing partiality...and then it got worse.

Democracy does not work in Africa because we , harshly speaking, expect it to do things for us. Democracy works when you participate, when you accept that people won't like your ideas today, and when you campaign, campaign and campaign.

Like you that is talking...have you joined a party? Or if you no like the parties we get, have you formed one?

Army rule had the same issues with civilian rule. The same kwarruption was there. Missing money? e dey. Tribalisim, e dey. Wuruwuru? E dey. Even the foundation for the damage of our refineries was laid under army rule.

And you think they will do better this time? No be Nigerians?

Ok o.

Cut the crap...

I've heard this same lyrics before.
It's not like I was born yesterday. Was very much of age during Babangida and Abacha's military regimes.

Not exonerating military regimes as being flawless, infact Babangida's regime introduced corruption in Nigeria beginning from the police.

Just saying democratic system along with it's attendant institutions are weak because thieves not leaders rule. Our own democracy is even one of the most expensive in the world.

Figger:
It's high time we put this democracy sh1t to an end. It's not helping us in any way.

Shey you get.

It's not working for us as black people.
We don't have strong and truly independent institutions not sure we'll ever do.
We the people are even worst off.
Almost like d black man was never destined to rule himself.

Very good.

Seems Military regimes is the antidote to demo-crazy in Africa.

They've always preached about democrazy being the best form of government, yet it has little or zero impact on the common man in Africa. For me it is the highest form of aristocracy.
Of what use is a system of government if the will of the people is always manipulated and truncated by select powerful few.

Democracy is not democracy if the institutions (courts, federal character commission, media, INEC, e.t.c) meant to uphold it are in the pocket of these agbada-wearing gluttons.

Africa's type of democracy stinks...tueeh!

I am very very familiar with this story, let me debunk the misleading story line.

1. The dog in the question has been sick and was suffering from partial paralysis. Therefore couldn’t have pursued anyone to the extent of sustaining any form of serious injury.

2. The late brother was a neighbour to the owner of the dog

3. The late brother ran out of fear, he wasn’t being pursued nor attacked by the dog. Meanwhile how could a grown man run to so much to the extent of hitting his body part and dying in the process?

4. The brother was rushed to the hospital and the first thing they did was to start injecting him with pain relievers without proper a diagnosis

The brother has since been buried and the family have decided not to pursue any case.

May his soul Rest In Peace.

May we not be victims of any bad circumstances...Amen

Do people now visit hospitals just because they are afraid?
Your points 3 & 4 don't add up.

You are right.

Tech industry is already saturated as we speak, though I believe there is still space for any one who can persevere and distinguish himself.

Secondly, the industry is fast paced so much that a skill you learnt today can become obsolete tomorrow, no, thanks to AI.

Baba sef join.

When in power you behave like gods on earth, forgetting that we move in circles and what we have is only but transient.

Your high handedness, selling off Nigeria's assets to cronies & friends largely supervised by Atiku and looting of same proceeds with high level of corruption. Nigeria is bleeding when we should've been reaping the gains of democracy and past years of oil boom.

We Never have been fortunate enough to have a true Nationalist and a leader who is altruistic and has integrity(Yar'adua of blessed memory comes close though).

May God have mercy. RIP.

Though living is hard enough, it's terrible losing one's life in this manner.

Pray that in search of looking for what to eat, may we not end up being eaten.

This is a very nice name, Interior + Materials. Good luck and quick sale.

Exactly... Just what I had in mind.

Thanks boss..
Same to you.

My little domain earnings came from Brand_new_name and Squadhelp wholesales as I eventually liquidated my Squadhelp portfolio when a bulk buyer came along.

I was able to make $1050 on Brand_new_name

I came across the platform here on Nairaland while trying to learn domaining without starting capital.

Two of those I shared the info with by word of mouth also won on Brand_new_name

Many thanks to the OPs that shared the info

Thanks for sharing.
All the best.

Call a Spade by its name.
So much for Mr Integrity.

If Tinubu was in the opposition, Buhari for dey hear am by now. Even promised to continue from where Buhari stopped. A failure at that.

Nigerian Politicians no get integrity.

VeeVeeMyLuv:
He is now a functional invalid
He succeeded in mechanically invalidating himself into a paraplegic. Are you saying that this is not sufficient?

Yes, of what use is he being alive then?
He has also denied the children of motherly Care which is irreplaceable.

Werey, why e no stab himself too if e really wanted to die.

Expectedly.

Removing subsidy is great but doing so without putting in place measures that will reduce the effects of removal first is stupid.
We should have had at least two refineries working locally before removing subsidy. Increase food security and provide cheap transport services.
Even the dangote refinery, we no see.

Pictures or idontbeliveit.

On a more serious note, it seems almost everyone has turned diabolic. Even your average Joe is into one fetish stuff or the other. Be wary, vigilant & pray.

God save us.

Mannabbgrills abi wetin be im name. Perfect sacrifice

Seems this would be the highest monthly revenue generated ever in the history of Nigeria. Part of the gains of removing subsidy.
Only if all tiers of government will be accountable and prudent enough in using this money to uplift the masses from their sufferings. Alas, the bigger the revenue, the higher the level of misappropriation.

Good one from the Nigerian Police Force.

It is also worrisome that crime has increased significantly. These are well over 1,000 able bodied men & women caught within a short period. A waste of human resource.

NLC should go and sit-down with their unrealistic demands.

How many of the so called workers ere even productive. I work in the civil service and I know it is highly bloated. What happens to the unemployed?
No be same market everyone dey go las las?

We want a stable economy and a system that works for everyone.

Reduce tax burden on local businesses, provide stable electricity for businesses & SMes to thrive, efficient and low cost transport services, set up vocational and skill training centres that run throughout the year - these are the palliatives that will have direct impact on the common man.

Guiness World Record should ban Nigeria Biko!

It's becoming stale.

I hate Nigerians for one thing; we are good at spoiling any good thing that has been going on for years when it reaches our turn by overdoing it in a way that is unhealthy. Be it traveling Visas, business, e.t.c.
You think of a brilliant business idea and open up a business in your area, before you say jack, you see ten different people doing same.

It's true oo.

Really sad to hear of this reality.

E no easy out there for man pikin and the streets not even smiling.

In whatever you do, please avoid crime, pray and seek help continually.

Dikastan:
Wetin dey inside federal job? Federal job I am planning to dump. Business is the sure plug if you want to be rich and comfortable in this country

That's because you have choice/funds to start a business.

It's easy if the man is the one being considered here. Isn't easy or almost impossible for the female folks especially if the husband is gainfully employed in another state.
Communication and agreement between spouses is key here.
