Skepticus:


I always knew that marriage, wedding licences and all are beneficial to the state despite recent revelations that marriage has outlived its usefulness.

There has been a sharp drop in marriage rates all over the world, so, Nigeria like the rest of the world is dropping the price to encourage more marriages. A venture that would be unsuccessful.

Yea, you got that right. This move is dead on arrival.

MISSCONGENIALITY:
I don't know why these demons are bent on making life hard for people.
They want to increase the tariff so that if you use to buy 5k electricity a month, you will buy 10k and it won't still be enough because what they will give you will be that of 4k. Instead of the NASS to make sure such plans to come to light, they are promising them till next year. What will happen next year that's not happening now. Will they increase salaries, will they provide prepaid meters, will they increase production, will they make other things cheaper so that Nigerians can afford hike in electricity? Or will the same people collecting the same pay and paying the same taxes and struggling to survive be the ones to pay for the hike?
Nigeria is just a dead country waiting to be burried and forgotten. How can a private business being funded by the government still be as useless and This. Why then do government invest in power.
Honestly I can't wait for Nigeria to start existing only in history books. It's painful

And a mere page in some dusty old history book it will become ! Amen

comshots:
E don reach 5 times wey Buhari don increase am.And no be say power supply dey stable.If IMF and World bank no give am loan he go dey look for where he go collect am from the people of Nigeria.He don increase VAT,POS service charge,bank stamp duty,fuel.Now na electricity tariffs.

Lawan and the Discos think say dem reverse psychology don work abi? Make we all wait till 2021 nau, if we no go enter streets to protest this useless hike. Fools in government!

You want us to believe the decision to exclude Nigeria was based on health, when over 80% of Countries on the list of those allowed into Europe have more recorded cases and death than Nigeria.

This is not about how many cases you Nigerians think you have; it is about how many cases the west think that you Nigerians have.

Damn it, naija students who are supposed to be starting exams next week are stranded in naija.

Hey, resitting exams aint that bad.

joyandfaith:
that is why it is very stupid for girls to be discussing their sexuality with friends.

Friends? Some even bring theirs to the cyberspace.

You have absolutely nothing to worry about. Just ensure you eat nutritious meal full of fruits and vegetables. Get VIT C 1000mg and Zinc 100mg taken twice daily. You'll be fine. Stay away from your family for now. Trust me,you'll be fine

Two Thursdays ago, I listened as tens of callers on a radio show (Joyce Onyemuwa's 'The Sunnyside' on Nigeriainfofm) complained about losing their senses of smell and taste. The virus is evidently everywhere now in Nigeria.

Buhari is a scam that won't happen again.

We said the same thing about GEJ and here we are. Nigerians love idiots as their leaders.

SmartProf:
Is it not Nigeria again? Even those who set the exam questions, if given exams to write, may not pass. U will be ashamed if u are made to go through most of the files of these so called 'big men' in the civil service. For most of them, their only qualification could even be a secretarial study course, that have pushed them to becoming directors. Some can't even send text messages on their own, talkless of being able to check emails or print confidential documents, but they are heading to become permanent secretaries after which they will sew big babariga and go for thanksgiving should they succeed. Meanwhile, the exam questions may have been some very simple MCQs which one can use residual knowledge to pass, but these quota system directors cannot pass. These are the type of dumb bosses we have in government offices, and they are always the first to shout 'get out of my office' at any given opportunity, yet most of the current crop of unemployed youths are more qualified and certified than them

THIS IS NIGERIA.

stop molesting our men

Awww... How sweet.

Liftmaster:
It may have escaped your notice, but the scheme you described is illegal, immoral and abhorrent. What is the money to be used for? Bribe the Director? Curry favor from a government agency or directorate? It is unfortunate that this type of behavior is generally accepted in Nigerian society today. In case you're wondering what you should have done, you should have stated clearly that this is an illegal act and you will not be involved in such a despicable scheme. If you have 350 - 500k laying around, why not start a business or invest in something? If bribery is what it takes to get a govt agency job, you should abstain, maintain your honor and prevent any blemish to your conscience.

Well said. I have always agreed with Napoleon Hill that the devil indeed controls 98percent of humans in this world. No one cares about doing right anymore and it is sad.

naptu2:
Yeah, sorry, somewhere in my mind I mixed up Kel and Dr Kel (I follow both of them on Twitter).

oh great.

naptu2:
Kel is a medical doctor and Kemistry returned to the US. Remember that she was also an OAP on Rhythm FM and then on Inspiration FM. She's now an OAP on a US station.

I'm sorry Naptu, but Kel didn't even study a course remotely related to Medicine as a part-time student at LASU. She's very much still into music ,and last I heard of her in 2018 (when she was co-hosting a midday show on Lagostalks913 FM), she was on the verge of releasing an album.

Kel is on Twitter nowadays advertising her chicken wings. Her handle is @Kelonline

Angelfrost:
Eldee was always going to outshine the others... He basically had the backing of family, connects, and had the intelligence to go mainstream... Kaboom, for me, is all quantity, less quality...

You nailed it, though I'd like to think the part of your assessment about KB is relative only to the trio; that the poor guy was the weeping boy in the group, doesn't mean he was wack.
Kaboom held his own while it all lasted. He's a legend worth his weight in gold as well.

ikorodureporta:
That show hosted by Desmond Majekodunni (Desmajek)

Desmond is an award-winning environmentalist today. He even has a show on radio, where he discusses issues bordering on environmemtal pollution

Angelfrost:
They were alright... But, as far as Trybesmen was concerned, Freestyle was the true lyrical god!!!

Even listening to his 'OK' solo alone is enough to see why Freestyle was easily the best and most loved. However, we all know El, by a long mile, was the more successful/influential.

Kaboom, I hear, hosts a rap show on radio these days.

Angelfrost:
Honestly, Freestyle of Trybesmen was a true lyricist on the roll... I had very great expectations from him, Ice Prince, Jesse Jagz and Mode-9

You didn't like Eldee and Kaboom as much?

naptu2:
JJC & The 419 Squad - We Are Africans (2009).

I liked the 'A ti de' song better; the subsidiary, 'Big Brothers', I think, did that one. Respect to JJC's rap delivery on that track. Smooth, neat lines through and through.

naptu2:
Trybesmen - Shake Bodi (1999)

Behold my best Nigerian rap group of all time. Listened to "Plenty Nonsense" and 'Skillz' only yesterday and I was wowed at the level of lyrical ingenuity those lads displayed in those pieces.


Who knows where the hell Freestyle at?

ednut1:
How was eedris then able to scam us with megene megene rap on the late 90s hahahha

Blame it on Naughty By Nature and Bone Thugz & Harmony

Ishilove:
All these songs are bringing back memories of lying down on the made-in-Benin couch in my father's sitting room and listening to Blakky, Junior and Pretty and these Emphasis people on radio. How time flies

Ishi, if you're in Lagos, you can listen to the programme, 'Music and Moments'. It airs on Nigeriainfo 99.3FM, every Friday evening (6. 15pm-6.50pm) and Saturday morning (11am-12noon).As one who loves the classics and the memories they bring, this is the show for you.

ojun50:
Am pain but more pain the way Nigeria police and rapes are killing and raping our girls......

The bigger pain should be you (and the rest of Nigerians) doing absolutely nothing to stop it. Why do we just tolerate anything for this obodo

Roon9:
Those born in 1999 and later seem to be in so much haste to make money and live life. Its just too sad

Heck! They wouldn't even respect their broke seniors in the hood. Nairamarley don finish the little wey remain for the grey matter wey dey dem head

Arizonaz:
Finally

This life I can't kill myself. Just allow me to flex o.

Person wey no go back to church with his or her sense complete ... Nah their cup of tea.

Nah from I want to introduce you to one powerful man of God problem take dey start.

Be wise!
Especially some Nigeria women wey like to go prayer houses for solutions when dem suppose they think with their heads.

Chexking my aunt's phone inbox days ago, when I went visiting, na so so pastor account numbers full am. . Took me almost 10minutes to find all of them and delete. But I trust say by next week, those SMS will be back.

Why are these pastorpreneurs so unfortunate gan? Well na gullible women dey help their ministries. Nigerian women really need to start using their head abeg

Ronin1:
Because I am a law abiding citizen, and the annoying part is the pastor will ask me later why I didn't come if he sees me. Like what are they teaching the younger generation, it's okay to break rules if it doesn't serve your purpose? Even if it means putting people's lives at risk? I just don't understand religion sometimes

I'm sure you didn't tell him all this. You could just look him in the eye next time he criticizes your not coming to church, and tell him how you really feel.
