Not going to lie, this b.s is too rampant in the southwest. There needs to be a massive reorientation of our people. Naturally, with poverty, people tends to do desperate stuff for survival, but this is too grim.

My dear, it's terrible.

The worry is that such practices gradually but steadily spread. It could become more widespread over time.

Improved living standards, a better economy, better education, jobs and massive re-orientation would seriously help.

If not, energetic able-bodied young people will keep looking for avenues to make a quick buck. If human lives are lost in the process, it won't matter much to them.

cool looking

So the Ooni was sucking and licking the kitten of an ex-pro. Imagine d head of all yorubas giving head.

Fatality! Abeg show mercy small.

They are very influential in their brother's life and they are constantly influencing his decisions particularly decisions bothering on marriage

But would they allow their own husbands' siblings to do same and constantly interfere in their own homes?

Maybe we can now see why the first wife left.

Sexual assault & forcing another to commit sexual assault. In a public place.

Criminal offences by law enforcement bodies. Na wa o.

Nice thread.

What is your background & goal?
You can hardly go wrong with networking though. CCNA preferably.

Shebi una (APC) promise heaven & earth thinking governance is easy.

Useful thread.

Those Northern people are not about achievement, corruption or performance. It is about religious & political domination of Nigeria. Which regimes were more corrupt than IBB & Abacha's?

Which regime of just over 5 years in power in Nigeria has done more in education, transport, attracting FDI, increasing economic growth, promoting rule of law, pushing towards free and fair elections, promoting agric etc than GEJ's? None.

They only use those mantra to hoodwink some willing tools in the South.

In laws and wahala.

A year & half before Buhari vacation was never enough. Our facilities are too rotten too risky for lives.

Trust me, when Buhari comes back, a lot many medical board executives & members of the regulatory agencies are jail bound. He's coming back with a fury in mind.

Hahahahaha! If you get paid to to this job of image laundry I can understand you. If you really believe what you just wrote there, I sincerely feel for you.

So one cannot renovate a hospital to a high standard in 18 months to 2 years?

So all your elderly relatives and friends do not go to Nigerian hospitals for treatment? Is Buhari's life and comfort more important than your family members' lives? His life is not worth more than that of any of my relatives who have to endure the dangerous healthcare system you alluded to.

Gee! I simply shudder.
Bloody hell.

You sound like a proper almajiri.

Na wa o.

He can come with fury like Bruce Lee in First of Fury Chinese film, nothing will improve. He will only again throw away the baby with the bath water like he did to ruin the economy.

gberra:
Be wise Areafada, An ex governor built a supposedly world class hospital, yet was flown abroad to treat just a scratch... that ain't buhari's fault, was it?.. If our general hospitals had been well equipped by past Administrations, there'd be no need for medicals abroad.

So you mean two years in FG power not enough to build a good hospital? Has Buhari reduced the budget for Aso Rock hospital?

Buhari rode to power wearing the toga of integrity & anti-corruption. The said governor did not.

That simply makes Buhari hypocrite and scam.

Awwwww! How touching. Not! Other people 's fathers, husbands, mother's, grand mothers, nieces, nephews and others are dying of simple curable diseases across Nigeria. They are human beings too.

Sad. RIP.

Of course. It serves his & Northern purpose as it is. So he thinks Bayelsa or Delta needs dam water. Lol.

Some parts of Nigeria are like that. We can already guess where. But it is not his job. He can help according to his means.

Tapout:
pls tell me it happened in Ghana

Or Kenya.

Looks like USA though.

Well, truth is bitter.

Our people say na jeje dem dey kill tse-tse fly wey siddon for pesin blokos. That was how GEJ took on corruption. Knowing that corruption is so deeply entrenched that long term institutional cleansing from the system is more important.

But Buhari went about it like a bulldozer and ruined the economy. Throwing the baby away with the bathwater.

It was GEJ's tact against Buhari's gra-gra approach.

Very sad

Ok

RIP.

I know it's Naija, I ride and drive in Naija so I am qualified to speak on that.

All I'm saying, and I made sure not to quote anyone, was that I find it odd that two separate motorcyclists were unable to get out of the way of a maniac car driver.

To me it's a valid question.

I do not care about the car, if it has good breaks or being driven by the devil.

All that concerns me is the inability of the motorcyclists to get out of it's way.

That we will never know for sure. Surely near misses happen daily. A combination of instinct/reflexes, carefulness & luck. Sadly in this case it was a tragedy. Since no video capture to analyse.

I guess the authorities should sensitise the general public more.

this is bad, very bad.

EgunMogaji:
God doesn't save.

Good sharp riding skills is what saves.

Regardless, I'll never know why the bikes didn't go off road when they saw a car ahead of them.

Look, we're talking of 9ja here. Do most drivers and riders actually learn proper driving/riding or take safety on the road matters seriously?

It is only a miracle that more people do not die on the roads. Do we know if the old car had a good working break? Many cars on our roads do not have o. Anything goes.

That you personally adhered to good driving practices doesn't mean your fellow road user does. But every road user who does the right thing means one less potential disaster waiting to happen.

EgunMogaji:
Yes, into the gutter if that's what it takes.

But yes, the driver was negligent but that doesn't help the poor dead folks.

Well, if at all they had time to enter the gutter, they'd probably still end up dead anyway. Maybe they even tried in vain to. One bike is inside the gutter.

Because entering the gutter at speed would mean been flung far or crushed into the gutter. It was between a rock & a hard place.

We are talking of probably a second to react by the bikes riders. The passengers on the bikes had no chance of doing anything at all. Only God saves in such situations.

EgunMogaji:
I wonder why both Okadas didn't simply ride off road.

I'm not blaming them, of course, the overtaking vehicle is at fault but as a rider and a driver, if faced with an older Mercedes, that's built back in the days like a tank, then would choose to dive off road. Even into a raging river if need be.

Combined collision speed must be at least 100mph.

They must have been taken by surprise by the car suddenly in their lane on a narrow road.

Where will they go? Into the gutter? In fact no time sef.

The car driver did badly not to try look ahead first or avoid overtaking where a bend might obscure seeing far ahead.

I'm from Edo state but I don't want bendel, I wish Edo could be marge wit Yoruba's , its only Yoruba I see future

Obviously you have no idea how and why Midwest broke away from Western Region in 1963 referendum. Go read it up. Being from Edo is not enough. Knowing your history is paramount.

If number 4 is using his right hand to hold a knife (not very clear), then it might be suicide.

Moreover, the killer could have calmly walked away than continue to eat his/her food.

Very good.

PDPGuy:
Lol

You really think that shaming the woman would discourage her from seeking legal enforcement of her rights? If she is really determined to get half of the property that was acquired in the course of the marriage, no amount of shaming on Nairaland, Facebook or LIB would deter her.

It would. We live in a hypocritical society that puts high value on shame and what others will say plus reputation of family.
In the West of individualism the lady might not care much.
See Otobo case that her mum even went to beg.
