jrusky:Dude the North are politically very smart. If the South can frustrate their fellow Southerner, why should the North prop him up? Southern loss is Northern gain. A Southerner would have ruled for 4 more years. Ruling is what matters to the North. Not whether their candidate has anything to offer. It's all about fulfilling Uthman da Fodio's and Ahmadu Bello's plan for the whole area a conquered territory. But self acclaimed educated Southerners are too selfish fighting for individual pockets to see it. ![]() |
Onojanson:I laughed when I saw the headline. So we are going back to what they condemned GEJ for? ![]() Obviously Jonathan was way ahead of the slowpokes in this country. ![]() Light and darkness have nothing in common. |
igbsam:It means they were never well vetted to begin with. It was paddy paddy and bribe thing. Is it hard to know who has a track record of using their licence? Either in communication or other sectors? As big as Nigerian commutation market is, are you not surprised that reputable companies like Vodafone are not coming to Nigeria? Vodafone operates in Ghana I learned. Because those companies would be pursued in courts in the West if they pay bribe to secure licences in Nigeria. Only African and Middle Eastern companies happy to pay bribes are interested. |
Ijaya123:That's the truth. Nigeria should generally be wary of things we do with fellow Africans. They dig the sand from under our feet at every opportunity. Of course if indeed these things happened exactly as they have accused him, then he displayed much naiveté. For a person of his calibre. Then he'll need to accept the consequences. |
Pavore9:You will still give a sample on arrival in Nigeria. But you will not be quarantined from the airport. Instead they "seize" your passport and ask you to go home and self-isolate until result is ready. If positive you will then be taken from your home to NCDC centre to isolate and possibly treat if necessary. Sha, as we like gra-gra stuff, don't be surprised if NCDC people in HAZMAT suits suddenly storm your house like a SWAT team. Then dramatically drag your from your house. Without any prior notice of the result. ![]() |
CharlesELIKIBA I can understand your pain from childhood experience. When you are fostered, there are always emotional issues. Quite often it's not because of foster parent's or your fault. You just missed the love of your natural parents. Simple. Like Sisioge pointed out, the couple did a lot for you. As humans however, they also erred by not just getting you through secondary school completely. Maybe someone lied against you or a religious or spiritual leader advised them to send you away. Only them & God know. Remember, you didn't use the opportunity they gave you to excel at school. Many used a lesser opportunity. But they worked hard (even if not naturally brilliant) and did better. I think it's unfair to say that they didn't want you to do better than their kids. Because you can never category prove such even if certain things they did gave you that impression or suspicion. Their kids were their primary and God-given responsibility. Your were not. Yet they extended a hand while your biological parents were virtually absent. As for the dreams, you need to forgive yourself for your perceived neglect of them. And then "forgive" whatever you think they didn't do for you. Remembering that neither your biological dad or mum could have given as much as they did during that period. Pray for the repose of her soul. Because in her you lost a "mother". If some day your cousins needed any help be it material or emotional, be there for them. They didn't cause anything. In fact they were the only siblings you had growing up. Please stop comparison. Anyone can "blow" at any time and anyone can fall behind. No condition is permanent. Let the hidden "bitterness" in you go. Bitterness towards everyone, including your biological parents. Only then can the healing start and you can truly be free. |
Ningen:Quite amazing how some women still have a sense of entitlement in 2020. If this continues the respect and equality many women want will keep eluding them. Not that spoiling a partner is a bad thing. but tt shouldn't be the yardstick when dating. @ OP how well do you even know his economic situation? Has he shown you his payslip and bank balance? Lots of guys are not nearly as buoyant as they look outside. Had he sent you just 100k for your birthday, you'd ignore his immature approach towards the future. I'd have been impressed by your decision if it wasn't based on birthday stuff. Misplaced priority. Move on. He will find his true bearing and then settle down with the woman he truly loves. May you also find find a guy who's ambitious enough in your estimation and gives you money as you desire. |
RuudVanNisteroy:Hmmmm |
seunmsg:Maybe some of the allegations are true maybe not. If true he deserves to go. But I see the hand of South Africa and some envious close neighbours. But they always want Nigeria to play big bros when it comes to contributing money. If Nigeria were serious we won't need another bank controlled by the West in our backyard. |
boookworm:Edo position as transit from Lagos and the North is really showing. Lots of Northerners interception in Edo are tested first, not just escorted back to Edo border and pushed out. Many states just escort them back only. |
Cyberterror:Well, assuming he stole from that money, it won't build him the country mansion Oshiomhole built at Iyamho. And Ize-Iyamu was with him part of it. So they know themselves. Going by your logic all the name calling of Obaseki by Oshiomhole might just be politics, not reality. Oshiomhole is doing godfatherism that he claimed to have banished in Edo. By the way my wish is that anyone from any party who ever stole Edo money should in due course vomit it and spend a tidy jail time. Whether Obaseki, Igbinedion, Oshiomhole or whomever. |
9ja don cast long ago. Nor be today. |
People are watered and fed racism from birth. It will never end. Some people are just more diplomatic now. Hypocrites basically. |
Cyberterror:Ize-Iyamu that Oshiomhole called a crook? No doubt the pastor is a better politician than Obaseki. He knows how to share the money and keep people on his side. Good PR too. But he has far less integrity and honesty than Obaseki. But in 9ja politicking is far more important than honesty and performance. Third world politics. |
I do not know what to say here. Good luck to the boys. |
Ningen: |
PowerofLove your observations are spot on. Unless someone ready to shoulder the cost and organises it, it hardly works. Many who are better off financially want to stay away because of fear of jealousy. Many would never want their kids to attend family gatherings. I guess this will be the new normal. Individualism. The church has taken overtaken family in importance. Many feel family comes with too many issues. Better to keep at arms length. Overall family dynamics matter most. It's worth trying to bring unity if dynamics are ok. But if the previous generation left much bad blood behind, you might be better off minding your business. |
Horrific. RIP. |
Nice. |
heykims:Because states go to Abuja to collect oil money every month. So they cannot make fiam! |
In 9ja, gate man does like na him own gate. Even your cook does like he owns the kitchen. In 9ja everybody is landlord of anything you put him in charge of. A law unto himself. Not to talk of a whole minister. They are more like a deity sef. Julius Caesar of their ministry. |
Obokhian. Ekaabo. |
tsdarkside:I wonder o. When person nor be wild animal? By the way can you just legally open any bush anywhere in Nigeria and just live there? Do not be surprised if the North amend 1978 Land Use Act and transfer control from governors to the president just to protect herdsmen. |
osaslord500:I thought settling on the way would cost much more with Tokunbo. |
osaslord500:This was Tokunbo, right? Already registered SUV from Lagos to Benin nko currently? Years ago I paid 40k because it was urgent. |
RuddyFusion:Zombies will not understand. He is just bringing his own people. 9ja na turn by turn. He has to repay those who lobbied for his appointment. By giving jobs to relatives and associates of the lobbyists. And a few girlfriends too. ![]() |
Okoroawusa:I got over it as soon as Buhari won. I adjusted my investments and didn't suffer the economic loss unfortunate Nigerians suffered because of Buhari's Kindergarten kids economic policies. Unlike Zombies I am also not affected by Buhari's incompetence. It's zombies and Almajiri's suffering. Abba Kyari was one of the heavenly saints Buhari appointed. Is he no more a Saint now that he's dead? If anyone said Kyari was running the country on his own a few months ago you would have accused them over 2015 and 2019 lost elections as regular zombies do. ![]() |
Bossontop:Buhari is too lethargic. Wait for him and nothing will be done. Buhari may well have approved those things and not remember that he did. Does he look like somebody who will remember 20 appointees never mind 150? Gambari will soon realise that and start operating on his own. That is the consequence of not choosing bright young people like Fashola to lead Nigeria. |
prekumohtim:Which share? They will still loot all. Mother of all loots it will be. Final looting infact. ![]() |
myboy2111:All with different names? And awarded govt contracts to yourself? Dude we cannot say he is guilty but we know how our politicians run things. |
