 Travel › Re: Rwandans Say ''Nigeria Is The Giant Of Africa And We Love Them!'' (Video) by aylipple: 5:14pm On Oct 20, 2025 |
I watched for the first 3 minutes and I was actually impressed; that guy the interview started with represented Rwanda very well! Guy has explored more Nigerian foods than actual Nigerians themselves. On the flip side, I think we (Nigerians) don't travel enough especially within Africa and we don't read enough about the rest of Africa & Africans. I'm not sure if it's the economy or our lack of interest in anything/anyone outside Nigeria (maybe 'coz we've got too much problems of ours to be bothered about what/who doesn't concern us directly). Aside the well-known Rwandan genocide & how clean and beautiful Kigali is, I doubt up to 70% of Nigerians (yours truly inclusive) know anything else about that country. Those who say "traveling is education" or something like that didn't lie. 2 Likes 1 Share |

You too like quarrel. On a serious note now, it'd be difficult for anyone who's interested in having access to a broad, secured, diverse and rich market to invest anywhere outside Lagos or Ogun. Both states aren't only investor-friendly (they're friendly to investors who are law abiding not those who break the law in the name of "investment" and when the law turns around to bite 'em in the ass they'd start emotional blackmails), they're strategically positioned. hafeeanubasy: |

I admire Tacha's growth since her BBN days. Unlike some of her co-reality stars especially the females whose sole focus is the glam life, Tacha has never been shy to lend her voice to socio-economic and political matters and she does it with so much conviction. As other times, she's spot on! 1 Like |

blamingthedevil:Can Mr. Massad Boulos empty his pockets first? I want to check for agbado🌽. Lol. Coming from a senior U.S Presidential Advisor, this is huge statement of support for the Nigerian Government's stance that there's no genocide against Christians. Meanwhile, only those who are yet to get over 2023 & who are looking for a backdoor entrance into Aso Rock in 2027 are parroting the unfounded allegation that Boko Haram/I SWAP/Lakurawa/Bandits are targeting Christians mostly. Ask them, those being killed by UGM/ESN/IPOB in the Southeast, were they killed because they're Christians? Why's it only the killings in the North that's being given a religious connotation? Also, why has Atiku, Pantami, El-rufai, Amaechi, Aregbesola, Obi and other members of the opposition maintained a suspicious silence over these allegations that appear to be sponsored by foreign elements? Naturally, Atiku, El-rufai and Pantami et al being Muslim northerners and who should know better ought to have rejected this narrative but because they're silently hoping PDTJ would do an "Obama" on PBAT, they're indifferent. They also don't want to appear to Southern Christians as religious bigots. Also, they don't want to be reminded of the stance they took or didn't take when Deborah was brutally killed by religious extremists in Sokoto for alleged blasphemy. For Amaechi, Obi & co., they'd not want to risk appearing to their Southern brothers as pandering to the Muslim north; either ways for these groups of politicians, silence is golden to them. |

While this is good for APC, it remains to be seen how they'll manage these gale of defections especially by politicians seeking re-election and old members of the party who are eyeing same positions. There'll still be a wave of defections from the APC to ADC (if it's still standing by then) or any other SPV the opposition hops on for 2027. It's well with PDP. |

Then, APC will see its ranks further rise with the soon to be made public defections of Governors Agbu Kefas, Duoye Diri, Caleb Muftwang, Abba Yusuf and Simi Fubara respectively.

Lol. It's not so difficult to spot a sponsored writeup when you see it. To Monye and others like him who hold this view, Wike isn't going anywhere anytime soon especially not b4 the next general elections. The people who desperately want Wike to be dropped from the FEC or for his relationship with PBAT to go sour aren't doing so because of their love for Nigeria or the President; they know a rift or public spat between both public figures only advances the interests of their own paymasters and nothing else and to their disappointment, both men will work together for as long as necessary. |

This government and previous ones before it have been too irresponsible. How can a union give ample strike notice yet, they’ll not arrest it immediately by having negotiations until they finally embark on strike? On this, I’m with ASUU. I hope they don’t call it off until all their demands are met to the “T”. The APC-led FG under PBAT is trying in some areas in the education sector (NELFUND, accountability in public varsities funding, payment of backlogs of some ASUU arrears, off-grid power supply for public varsities, the ongoing transition of public/FG schools owned from blackboards and magnetic boards to digital interactive boards etc.) but their inability to properly, timely and adequately fund the education sector is sickening; their profligacy makes this even more worrisome. The funds they’re releasing for constituency projects, foreign trips, ego “legacy projects” & so on should be channeled to more important sectors like education and healthcare. |

Sometimes Sahara Reporters behaves as if they're a media organization run by confused kindergartens. The same organization some few days ago correctly broke the news that barring any last minute surprises, the President would present Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), Prof. Joash O. Amupitan's name to the National Council of State as nominee for INEC Chairman. Now, this report is saying nominating an INEC Chair wasn't on the council's agenda at all; flip flop reporting? Sahara Reporters wants badly a spat between PBAT & Wike, and in its desperation to present a false perception of trouble between the duo, it forgot that FCT Minister isn't a member of the Council of State so all this allegation of "boycott" because one purported favoured candidate expected to be nominated for INEC Chair was jettisoned for another, is hogwash. For avoidance of doubt, the Composition of Council of State (Nigeria) is as follows: 1. President, who is the Chairman 2. Vice-President, who is the Deputy Chairman 3. All former Presidents of the Federation and all former Heads of the Government of the Federation 4. All former Chief Justices of Nigeria 5. Current President of the Senate 6. Current Speaker of the House of Representatives 7. All the Governors of the states of the Federation 8. Minister of Justice and Attorney General of the Federation 1 Like |

Lol 😂 even the coalition chieftains know that the man has lost steam; whatever made him appealing to Nigerian voters has begun to clear from their eyes small small and this isn’t even 2026 yet (a full calendar year before the next general polls) where major political alignments and realignments will be taking place. If he actually held the aces as his most ardent believers would want the rest of Nigerians to believe, the ADC wouldn’t even be contemplating throwing their presidential ticket open, they’d just hand it to him on a platter. Worse still is they’re not even going to consider him for the running mate position to galvanize their support base because they’ve done the maths and concluded that his addition won’t make a difference to the ticket. On a slightly different note, what if the coalition people (working with forces with immensely deep pockets) “chop” Waziri’s money & instead vote GEJ in an open primary? My only disagreement with this line of thought is if GEJ were to contest again, he’d most likely do so on the platform of PDP. 4 Likes |

You know exactly what’s going on. Declare all the state of emergency you want, it won’t solve anything if the people themselves aren’t willing or ready to let it end. Using the Rivers emergency as an example (not the same factors but the processes towards restoring peace are all the same), until all the political actors involved came to the negotiation table to iron out the terms of their reconciliation. Similarly, until the victims of this insurgency sit down among themselves and agree that enough is enough (there are still willing collaborators among them who give the insurgents information, support them with logistics, withhold information to security agencies for reasons best known to them & above all, stop breeding children they can’t care for like rats), we’ll keep going around in cycles. onuman: 1 Like |

It usually feels like a bad dream to me that I wish I could wake up from when most Nigerians who once occupied some of the highest, most powerful & influential positions of authority in the land always seem to find their voices or have solutions when they’re outside the corridors of power. A case in point is the excerpt from Gen. Lucky Irabor’s memoirs quoted in this report. A fine military officer par excellence & gentleman; a modern military chief, tacit, well-trained, intelligent, battle-tested & highly respected among his peers locally & internationally. However, his submission that there was lack of a political will to declare a state of emergency towards ending BH is hypocritical to me. For crying out loud, he was Nigeria’s topmost General as CDS for at least two years during which we first heard his C-in-C coin the phrase “technically defeated” in reference to the war against insurgency. While two years or even 8 years may not be enough to totally eradicate insurgency, it was never heard during his tenure as CDS that he proposed a state of emergency as part solution - not even a whisper of that was attributed to him. While the insurgency is multifaceted in nature, there can’t be any lasting/permanent solution without the people (who have being victims of the insurgency themselves) willing to put an end to it first, before any political or economic solution. |

Well, you’ve a point there about the farmers being engaged in a venture but if history is anything to go by, this NELFUND won’t be any different. You remember how many people also thought the NIRSAL Covid “loans” were a grant until their accounts started getting debited? Where I think this NELFUND will be slightly different is beneficiaries now don’t start paying back until they’re gainfully employed; if they don’t pay back especially if they’re later on employed and receiving salaries, it’s just to place an auto-debit on their accounts using BVN that way, DSS or EFCC won’t even have to be involved.

Most of these incidences of hospitals rejecting or wasting time attending to victims of medical emergencies is because of a lack of proper medical insurance. I don’t know how it works abroad but methinks having a universal health insurance coverage that can be of use in any hospital across Nigeria is very important now more than ever; you simply present at the medical facility closest to you ICOE, provide your insurance number (that’s unique to you), get treatment covered by your health insurance and thereafter, the hospital reconciles the bill with your HMO - case closed! The current practice where your health insurance (for those under HMO/NHIS) is tied to a specific hospital or treatment is delayed especially if you’ve never been registered in that hospital before the emergency & you or the person that took you to the hospital has to first register, make a deposit then get a card in your name before treatment commences or while treatment commences is archaic and should be done away with.

I doubt it’ll be waived ooo. Go ask farmers of the ABP under the Buhari administration; most of the beneficiaries (majority of the beneficiaries are from the North) thought it was a national cake something that won’t be repaid. To their chagrin, the current admin is following them on recovery of those loans bumper-to-bumper. Those in the know will tell you how the case began with the DSS & is now currently with the EFCC; every day, they’re being called one by one to Abuja to extract commitments from them on how to pay back.

Zagazola is a highly credible outlet on security, SPECOPs & COIN issues especially in the North (incl. countries bordering the North) so I wouldn’t doubt this his report. However, the problem is should the AES nations (Mali, Burkina Faso & Niger) release the names of these purported Nigerian sponsors of banditry, it’ll quickly be politicized or the military junta in those countries accused of plotting to destabilize Nigeria. Either ways, they should release the goddamn list so that we can all rest; we’ve been hearing of this “list” of sponsors of terrorism in Nigeria since the late PMB admin but till now, that list has never seen the light of day perhaps it’s time for other people to help us do it. |
