4C2215131:Well, laziness/greed are part of it. But realistically, some girls are sent back to campus by their parents without money for bare necessity. Girls who should simply focus on studies now have to worry about money for recharge card, rent, food, transport, etc. For some, the simple/only way out is a male benefactor or benefactors. Or so it seems. True, others just want to live beyond their means and use luxury goods. |
Very terrible situation. They even have to date several ATMs to make ends meet. The most generous ATM gets more browse time. ![]() Poverty in the land is turning lots of girls to oloshos. |
No surprise in a failed education system. |
Nor be only bear with me. Na Panda with me. |
Lilimax:All ably assisted by incompetent political (mis)leaders. |
janellemonae:Of course he was. And he decided to focus on improving the West anticipating the scenario of "God for us all, everyman for himself". Today East laugh at brown roofs in the West, West laugh at erosion gullies in the East, all laughing at Talakawa/Almajiris up North. All happening before our very own eyes. |
Super1Star:Most of those first generation leaders did great things, though they also made their own mistakes. Easy for us to say with hindsight that they did not have. Zik was a nationalist because he initially had no interest playing politics in the East. In his view, any Nigerian should aspire to political office anywhere in Nigeria. But Nigeria was not (and still not) ripe for that level of nationalism. He only went East when he was prevented from doing so in the West. Another thing was, he let peace reign by putting Nigeria first. He agreed to be a ceremonial president to allow Balewa form government. He could have left his party out of government, leaving Balewa to form an unstable minority government. Imagine an unstable govt in a newly independent country. The 1966 coup would have come much earlier. Even when Okotieh-Eboh was used against him by the British and others to destabilise his party, he let peace reign. Now compare with the internal crisis between the camps of Awo & Akintola and how damaging it was. How the North even used it as an excuse the cage Awo, the brilliant and indefatigable opposition leader. Overall (rather naively from our current divided and tribalised mind set), he was way too nationalist & optimistic to see that Nigeria would have problems of national unity. Don't forget the role he played towards end of the civil war to help bring it to an end. Very much at the risk of being forever branded a traitor by his own tribe. But Awo saw it coming and even boldly said "Nigeria is only a geographical expression". Try to beat that. ![]() |
Super1Star:They will soon accuse him of wanting Biafra through the back door. Northerners in particular will not want to hear this. No Nigerian state is currently truly viable. Even almighty Lagos still depends on federal allocation. Tinubu was seriously hindered when OBJ withheld Lagos allocation. All those monies released to Fashola helped his first term achievement. Much less states like Osun, Yobe, etc. |

[quote author=kazuna post=45022139]i still barely get up to 3hrs if PMB is indeed working...dont defend that man because he's under severe scrutiny....everyone, include The Economist, knows he's faltering badly. like someone said if PMB is really good and functioning instead of appearing moroosely obstinate, we wont need a long epistle to convince us. Do we need convincing That Messi is good? [quote]No Sir! Messi does his job mercilessly on the playing field. ![]() |

I thought this Adeyemi was one of the few cool-headed and principled politicians. People who jump from APC to PDP or from PDP to APC or any party to another completely lose my respect. I know they don't care, only money and position matter. |
bigtt76:Person dey battle health issues for years, you dey talk of remarriage. If he has a bevvy of girlfriends (something not uncommon among many retired army officers like him), will you know? |
I doubt if Buhari has built a single psychiatric ward yet. As this hardship bites even harder, depression and other more serious mental health issues are going to increase. Which happy or normal person goes stark naked like that? |
ycat:You're a massive shame to respectful & cultured Yoruba people. A religious fanatic I reckon too. So in your wisdom, Yinusa is 17 years old? Hahahahaha. Even if 17, he should abduct an even younger girl, steal to another region hundreds of miles away. All with the support of religious elders. So a 17 year old, he has no other problem and should have no other goals than to marry a 15 years old girl. Is it normal in Yorubaland to take a girl against her parents consent? See a doctor to check if you're not a ZIka virus victim. Microcephaly ti take over. ![]() As a product of failed education system, you must be too useless to know the biological/anatomical and psychological difference between a 15-year old girl & a 17-year old girl. And how can you know the basis of the laws enacted to protect kids? Go to places where laws actually work & break them. As for tribal origin (s), a bigot and tribalist like you has no respect for people without you narrow horizon. Anyone who does not support your tribalism is anti- Yoruba. Honesty & difference of opinion have no place. You can be throwing your cowardly insults, because that's all you can do. I know your type. We don brag or do empty threats. Sorry that I cannot see you face to face. |
Why do people like to kill guys' joy all the time? From the perspective I'm looking at it, it's all rather lovely. ![]() |
TPAND: ![]() |
goodluckar:Don't you think putting some details of Kuje land on here would help? The onus is on you to provide info. Without potential customers dragging it out from you. |
The stone that was cast away becomes the cornerstone. The world knows the tyrannical and sit-tight tendencies of African leaders, the value GEJ's respect for democracy and rule of law. |
I like her honesty. |
Wow! How sad. Rip sir. |
Dude, are you dragging a fine babe in the church with him? Let's begin the diagnosis from there. ![]() |
TPAND: ![]() |

buharisbae:Which kind of anatomy & physiology is that? How does that happen when she's not pregnant or breastfeeding? |
So na fake boobs Linda dey carry waka? Chai! Men have suffered o. Who knows all the other parts of the body they have worked on. Whizzkid on my mind. ![]() |
Is it the former Iyawo of John Fashanu? ![]() |
Is it dry land or would need raft foundation? |
Muafrika2:Sometimes, a hot tempered woman slaps her hubby at the slightest provocation. When he decks her in return, everybody shouts wife beater. We all desperately want to believe only men always do it and the lady is Mother Theresa always. ![]() I have seen people like that. Actually, some people who witnessed abuse growing up DECIDE to be completely different. It's same like children from broken homes. Not all end up having broken homes. True, witnessing domestic abuse along with other social problems and deprivation can condition people to normalise it. |
jaymdee:I bow. Let her remember campuses & see girls looking like that. What about those tall, slim, pretty Northern girls? Maybe their non-revealing attires don't make her see them. |
millionboi:Yep. When two grown ups cannot amicably sort themselves out, innocent kids suffer. Why would a busy lecturer want to look after a 2-year old tot when she has a mother? You would think a lecturer & a civil servant are educated/reasonable enough to put the child's interest first. But alas no. Our grandmothers/fathers in the villages/hamlets have far more common sense. |
Now, Tinubu and co have helped Buhari get to Aso Rock. They used all possible dirty tricks. Congrats to them. But in all honesty, are Baba Onikeke, Nma Nkechi, Mama Hauwa & Papa Ekaette better off today than they were a year ago? Are they enjoying better food, better roads, better electricity, better health care and better security, is the economic prospect better? Does the future look brighter for their children now than it was a year ago? White people said something long ago: that black people like to have power but they don't know how to use it to help their people. So before you hail their power grab, first think how well they using that power. |
