Billionaires dey talk all these teenagers on borrowed data in a badly ventilated room located in a poverty striken part of the country are airing their own opinions .
What stupid infrastructure is solving your problem when the fundamental of human capital development is neglected. A child that is not trained will sell a house that is built.

nextstep:
The simple truth is this: yes, Nigeria is tough - hellish some would say - but there are many people here living very good lives here, actually LIVING. When I see people come home from Western countries, it's like they are not alive. They may be comfortable, but they are in the same cycle of work, tax, debt, work, tax, debt with little chance to really LIVE. They may come and do shakara during Christmas, but at the end of the day, it's money they will spend the next 1 year paying off, with interest.

There are some who manage to break the cycle, perhaps investing back home or building a house, but from my understanding it's quite a soul-less and isolating existence.

Those who go abroad usually have gathered nearly 2million Naira for ticket, visa, living expenses. Just to go and drive taxi or be a nurse? That same 2million has launched many people out of poverty in this "sh1thole". Material wealth and comfort does not mean you're LIVING... I would like to be able to visit there frequently like some people I know, but not really reside.

I just wish we would see the incredible opportunities that foreigners are coming to find here...
It all depends on you. Why did many come to live in Lagos? Opportunities!!!! Some people in the village are not doing badly too.....Govto wherever you can find your opportunity. My immediate younger brother relocated barely a year ago. He obviously lives better now than when he was a banker here. The caveat is to go on a legal basis and with a focus. If you run to US, UK or Canada with visitors visa and you chose to stay put, you will struggle. You may need to start from the beginning in a place like Canada, but with seriousness and dedication, you can find your footing. Many of us were not born and bred in Lagos.....but we are all here today coz of opportunity. The world has become a global village bro.

Christianity EtcRe: Biodun Fatoyinbo Aka "Robust Reply" Visits Ibadan By Deji Yesufu by bankylan: 8:32pm On Mar 18, 2018
Same story from the mentally deprived enemy of the church. Poverty, frustration, and lack of direction typify their lives. They only find fulfillment is attacking the pastors and the church...the only requirement for their job is 'impaired upbringing'....They are not in church, but they think they have to dictate to church....they called the church members fool, but their lives are not in any way as good as those in the church....A poor man telling a rich man how to spend. An ignorant fellow trying to teach the learned....He went to Niyi Eboda's church on Okada...yet, he is against the church prospering while he should be grateful that someone is providing solution to his inherited problem . Biodun Fatoyinbo....I know...but who knows Yusuf? Yusuf couldn't find fulfillment after school, situations of life has obviously made him to believe his plight is caused by the successful people in the society. Frustration makes one to be highly critical of success. I am sure if he is sued now to clear all the allegations against pastors, he will bring his entire family to come to beg. We give in church because we have an understanding and not because we are forced or cajoled. When we don't give, no one arrests us or abuses us for not giving. But these poor and frustrated, jobless, pained Freeze brothers are not the ones to tell us what we do in church. I am not a member of COZA, but if this Yusuf thinks he is right, he should visit COZA Abuja next week, he will realize how low he is in life.

Deji Yusuf, this is the main reason your life has been stagnant. Have you ever seen any successful man criticizing men of God? It is always the same poor and unfulfilled folks with entitlement mentality. Visit Coza in Abuja and ask yourself if you are more intelligent, rich, fulfilled, educated, and informed than the members of the church. What have you done with your life the world can see? Upon your abuse and criticism, is Pastor Biodun even aware of your existence? Ask your family members if they won't trade you for him without thinking twice. When unfulfilled kids like you feel they have the authority over pastors, then you know that insanity is to be treated.

Foreign AffairsRe: Russia Expels 23 British Diplomats, Shuts Down Council, Consulate And Others by bankylan: 3:24pm On Mar 18, 2018
Lordswazz:
They don't need to fight them sir. They offered "economic aid" to Ukraine, and their then DULY ELECTED president rejected the aid saying he preferred the close ties with Russia to remain intact.
The 21st century colonists, otherwise known as the 'west' now employed the oldest trick in the book needed to oust a government; "Revolution". Now i had to put revolution in quotes cos that thing that happened in the Ukraine was anything but a true revolution.
In a matter of days, every western press you know on the planet, from BBC to CNN were all there, trying to blow what just a few dozen or at most one hundred disgruntled people who were handpicked started out of proportion, and the rest is history.
The "government" that was arranged by the west just after Yanukovich ran for safety accepted the "economic aid" and that was the first step. Bro the second step would have been to start discussing "Ukrainian safety" from its "rogue neighbours" and planting a nuclear shield and possibly one with attack capabilities right in the direction of Russia. Na there them for dey free to roam the world and do whatever they wish because literally no one fit talk.
That was the reason putin had to take back the closest landmass to his border, being Crimea, for the safety of his country and its people. Of course the west wouldn't tell you all these. They would only talk about the "forceful annexation", which they used as a basis to start sanctioning Russia. They didn't need to deploy guys to fight. They attacked the Russian economy with the sanctions and that, they b
elieve, has far greater impact.
You called the West 21st century colonists, but I disagree. Ask South Korea today, they will tell u they are grateful to have alligned with the West. North Korea went with China and Russia and we all can see deprivation and poverty in the land. What has Russian given the world? Check all the fortune companies that have changed the world and mention one from Russia. The Internet u are using today is from the West. Nigeria and other Africans are backward today because we could not learn from the West.
The West isn't trying to colonize anyone....If you are a student of history and knowledge of world War 1 and 2, you will understand why the US took the role of the police of the world. America does not need anybody's oil as people normally allege, they have enough. They are the largest contributor to UN. Putin is a rogue and it is just a matter of time. He is helping Assad in Syria to kill innocent citizens and this must stop.

Volodya - The irunmoles are solidly behind you. The anglo-zionist empire must crumble!
You are talking about launching nuclear strike as if they have exclusive power to do that.....When the US killed over 200 Russian in Syria last month, what did Russia do? The war against Russia for now will be economic and the West is capable of doing that. You may not like the West but the whole world is to be grateful to them. Russia is helping Assad to kill his people in Syria. As if that is not enough, they have the gut to kill their own ex spy on UK soil. Forget the idea of West trying to dominate the world. After Korean War of 1953, South Korea alligned with the West while North Korea alligned with China/ Russia. This 2018, will u live in North Korea? Will u prefer to live in Moscow to living in New York or London. For now, even in conventional war Russia can't stand the US - an ally to UK. And if Putin..is stupid enough to go nuclear, the whole of Russia will be gone too.

China is never a good ally and they will not do Africa any good as there is trade imbalance between Africa and China with the later not concerned about the problem. After the Korean war in 1953, South Korea aligned with USA while North Korea aligned with China, this is 2018, South Korea gives the world LG, SAMSUNG, HYUNDAI, DAEWOO and many more. But what do you see in North Korea apart from hunger and deprivation? USA does not need AFRICA the way we need them. Americans are more human than the Chinees and if you doubt me, try to choose between Chevron and Huawei: Let the two offer the same salary and look at which treats you like human .

RexEmmyGee:
For Donald Trump to meet North Korea Leaders means something is wrong. Nuclear warheads in Korea is greater than that of USA.



That's the simple truth
The meeting is at the plea of North Korea as they are bleeding. North Korea can not do anything to the US.....US is only being mindful of his South Korea ally. North Korea is ready to give up her nuclear ambition as they see US/South Korea yearly joint military exercise as a prelude to invasion. US and South Korea has a perfected ploy to invade should there be an immediate need. North Korea has no air defence and they know that they are very susceptible to aerial bombardments and they know that a nuclear war is not an option for them as US will obliterate them within hours.

I am a student of international politics and I follow the situation in the Korean Peninsula....The truth is that there is hunger and death on North Korea............South Korea due to her friendship with US has given the world, Samsung, LG, Daewoo, Hyundai, Cosmestic surgery and many more....Are you aware of the numbers of North Koreans defecting to the South?

A lot of people have castigated this women when they obviously don't know what transpired . Many did not know that this woman fought a legal battle with the FG for 12 years before she won the right to 60% stake in the oil block she was awarded. The people bashing her did not know that as at the time the block was awarded to her, nobody was exploring deep offshore in Nigeria because it was expensive. The FG believed oil was in commercial quantity in this block until she was able to get a technical partner in Chevron. Yes, Maryam Babangida gave her access to the then Minister of Petroleum, but it didn't end there as she had to struggle for many years before she was granted.

You have to know someone if you want to do a business of this magnitude.........You cant sit down inside your bedroom and expect someone to give you oil bloc

If you have ever been to the church before, you will know that the members are even richer than the pastor. COZA members are not languishing in poverty.

COZA members are not POOR.............Visit the church and see wealth and abundance written all over the worshipers.

You can hit your head on the wall.....Poverty is out of church forever.

Go to House on the Rock, KICC, TPH, Redeem, Winners, Daystar, TREM, and many more and see Wealth all over the members. The Pastors there are not lazy and many of them have their private businesses.

People who come in broke are being blessed, and no one forces anyone to give in church. We give out of understanding. If poor people are the ones that dominate church, how come the church is rich as poor don't have anything to give in the first place.

A poor broke Pastor will find it hard to minister to a jobless man that God is faithful to bless. Wealth makes the work of evangelism easier.

That is why God says ' I wish above all that you may prosper and be in good health.

I know Pastor Biodun when I was in Unilorin. He was always preaching to the cult boys to be born again. He struggled and he trekked in Ilorin to preach the gospel of Jesus. He has paid his dues as a believer.

I am not a member of COZA, but I have some friends there.....No poverty in that church.....The members are not poor in any way. Just pay a visit, and you will have a change of mind.
