Aha!

While Fayose is empowering true and patriotic citizens of Ekiti, Paid goons are there embarking on a fruitless protest.

Like I said earlier, Fayose, Continue with the good work. Haters... Eat my sh!it

Suffer no good i swear. It affects the mind. I thank God for my life.

I kissed my then boss. If you see her, you'd know i had to have been drunk to have done that.

Lol @ the bold and again, you are spot on, l have few properties in lagos plus my personal house but even at that, l visit Nigeria un-announced, in Nigeria during my brief visit l act like James Bond 007, all my movement is coded, l sometimes avoid sleeping in my personal house to avoid drawing attention to myself
Few weeks ago, l was told robbers went to my friends house, despite all the burglary proof, gated fence, they jumped inside his compound, cut one of the windows, opened the doors and told his wife to lay on the ground, his 2 kids where sleeping, they didnt rape the woman but they collected things in the house and left, meanwhile my friend was on night duty, the wife called him that robbers are operating, he left work and start heading back home. A family member called me and narrated the incident to me, l was in shock.

The moral of my story is, Nigeria is not very safe so l dont blame anybody who decides not to visit until the system improves, but when will it improve is the big question

Can you imagine? No one is safe in Nigeria.

4nobody4every1:
l am afraid l have to agree with your submission, l have traveled to several countries both the rich, not too rich, poor and average, the way citizens of those countries conducts themselves we lack in Nigeria, basic & fundamental things that work in those countries dont work in Nigeria.

l dont know how we all got to the present stage we are in currently, ethnic-ism, bigotry, religious inclinations, corruption, embezzlement, lack of genuine love for one another, greed, nepotism just to mention but a few has crippled the destiny of Nigeria, anytime l think of going to Nigeria on holidays, l am scared to my pants but l feel safer in smaller countries bordering Nigeria like Ghana / Benin Republic and Togo.

Some of my friends will fly from New Zealand / Australia / US & UK to those 3 countries l mentioned, relaxed , their family members will meet them there but they are freaking scared to enter Nigeria, even few who forced themselves to enter Nigeria will be looking at there back always and cant sleep peacefully at night, some will go and sleep in secured estate / hotels just to avoid been robbed or kidnapped, what a country

Bros, you get liver ooo. I have vowed never to enter that country again until things change. Especially the way Nigerian think. It is so bad that instead of building my house in Nigeria, I built it in Ghana. I am more comfortable going to Ghana than my country of birth. And how did we get here as a country? I believe that Britain gave us our independence too soon. As a people we lacked the knowledge to manage what they left us and worse is we discovered oil. It was like giving a child access to a machine gun; he'll kill everyone include him/herself. The biggest problem now is Nigerians are so used to the rot that they mostly don't see any problem with their mentality. There is not one single person there who has the right mentality and it's a shame. It's not really their fault. They just don't know a better way because they've never experienced it. Smh.

DY20:
I checked my account balance now; the figures I saw make me curious about what will happen to the money in my account if I die.
I opened this saving account with UBA 2011 when I started working. I opened it just to save some money so that I will be able to go to school. Yes I am going to school but I am still working. I think I and the bank are the only person that knows the details of my account balance.
These questions are just coming from nowhere.
As a common man and a common saving account owner: If I die, how will the bank know?
Does that mean that the money becomes bank's own if I die?
I can only remember filling the details of my next of kin (my mum) when registering the account: will they call if the bank noticed I have not been using the account because I have died?
Will my parents or relatives will able to claim the money if I die? (That's even if my mum knows that I have money in my bank account)

Bonus: is it even proper morally if my parents enquire about my account details from the bank? (What if na just like 10k dey dere?) coz I suppose it is the child that ought to collect his parent's wealth..

Please help me satistfy my this curious mind.. So that I will know if to, or not to give a tip to my mum about my bank account balance details. I am not ready yet o (neither am I prepared ornot scared) but I felt like death can come anytime.

Thanks for your contribution.

It goes to whoever you leave it for in your will. If you don't have a will, it goes to your spouse. If you don't have a spouse, It goes to your immediate family. If you don't have any immediate family that can be contacted, it then goes to the government. At least that's how it's done in normal societies.

DesChyko:
Nigerians who are at the wrong place at this point in their lives. If only there were comfortably diverse means of making ends meet, that won't be the case.

Which is why i said "Nigerians". Nigerians are their own architects. Failure or success is up to them. To create a "comfortably diverse means of making ends meet", is up to Nigerians. Not south africans, or Liberians or Zimbabweans. Nigerians.

Guyman02:
If you aint got anything to contribute you STFU, you must not comment on every thread. God has blessed the man already by virtue of being the leader of the most populous black nation in the world. You dont need to keep flogging it as that makes you a sycophant and a 'hailing hailer'

There needs to be a fundamental restructuring in the way Nigerians think for it to even think about it being passable as a Nation not to talk of it being great. This is how bad it is; If you bring everybody in America to Nigeria and transport everyone in Nigeria to America, after a while, Nigerians in America will be applying for visas to come back to Nigeria.

OLAADEGBU:
Do you even believe Nigeria can be great?

With the way it's citizens think and conduct business, NO. It's just not possible. There needs to be a fundamental restructuring in the way Nigerians think for it to even think about it being passable as a Nation not to talk of it being great. This is how bad it is; If you bring everybody in America to Nigeria and transport everyone in Nigeria to America, after a while, Nigerians in America will be applying for visas to come back to Nigeria.

DesChyko:
Until the police embraces militarisation, this may never end soon. On Wazobia FM today where they hosted a police chief, people were just reporting the various evil deeds of the police. And I wonder what their mission was again. To protect or to endanger. Their laws and conduct needs to be completely revamped.

The problem with the Nigerian police is that they are filled with Nigerians.

Osyabj:
This thief Fayose is going down in 2016 not in 2018

There is no absolute immunity....

In light of the fact that Fayose's crimes are pre-election related, he can be tried NOW and jailed NOW, despite the immunity clause. Fact is that inspite of the same immunity clause, President Buhari was, until the case was recently withdrawn, undergoing trial for "Certificate" issue. Remenber? Also Gov. Ayade of Cross River was tried last year for Perjury in pre-election matter!!!

What we can deduce from the above two cases and the unbroken chain of judicial decisions on the inapplicability of immunity to election-related proceedings is that immunity does not cover proceedings which are rooted in infractions or actions taken during or before elections says Mr. Femi Falana (SAN)

Then Nigerians in Ekiti need to do the right thing by impeaching him. This is how normal people do business.

wanderlustian:
I'm starting this thread to chronicle my journey across Europe this summer.

I've never been to Europe before and german embassy gave me 2 weeks visa, so I can as well visit all the places I can while at it.

I'm travelling with a 10 month old baby. She's pretty strong (we've been on the road since she was 1 week old, and travelling since she was 1 month old, so I'm guessing she will be a good sport).

I have family and friends in Milan, but I'm arriving in Frankfurt 1st, then taking a bus from Frankfurt to Milan through Switzerland (cheaper than the train).

If you have experience in taking this kind of journey please help me draw out a plan.

I personally will love to visit Munich, Berlin, Geneva, Venice and Rome as well, but I think it will be quite a herculean task visiting each city with a baby strapped to my back or chest.

I'm starting the journey at the end of this month, and even if you can't come with me, stay hooked to this thread!

You must visit Weiden in Germany. I swear you'll think you are in Lagos island but without all the crowd. Don't go to Paris. Too dirty.

Anarchy Rules where the President is an illiterate.

Jonathan was not an illiterate but anarchy ruled then too or did jungle justice just start during Buhari's leadership?

CACAWA:
[size=18pt]And who owns the N200 on the table?

During GEJ's era, ...anyway

this shows alot about PMB's sincerity.[/size]

Let me guess. You are allergic to logic. So, because he is having his toe nails cut and there's 200 naira on the table he's sincere. Ok. Smh.

HungerBAD:
Responsible Citizens fighting back.

Tired of reading about how Thieves rape wives/kids/mothers and then kill.

I wouldn't go as far as call them responsible, but i do understand why they think they have to indulge in jungle justice. Remember this though, if you ask them why they do this they'll tell you that the system is broken and the police cannot be trusted. If you ask the suspected robber, he'll most likely say he's doing it to feed his six months old kid. You see my point? Everyone will have an excuse for doing something illegal and senseless. Normal people don't use means to justify ends. Only animals do that.

Likei:
buhari should tell his wife aisha to return her own first, she is wanted in usa and she is hiding in aso rock. charity,they say begins at home.

How do you know she's wanted in the U.S? There are no news feeds trending or saying anything about this matter except in Nigeria. I would think that if the wife of any president is wanted in the U.S, everyone in the world would know about it.

general111:
very very possible sir.at least I av seen it a lot of times..a man will cheat because his spouse is not satisfying him sexually.

That is just an excuse which leads to serious problem. One word; Divorce. It is too easy. No be by force to stay in a marriage.

Freiburger:
How about selling it to conservators who are willing to pay some good cash for it? Cash that would be enough for goatmeat peppersoup if that is the case.
people pay a lot of money for dolphin shows.

Nigeria is not mentally ripe for such things.

general111:
Op your husband loves you but is only using those gals as sexmate..just keep praying for him Nd DAT he shouldn't infect you with std,because I know abt two women who r dead now due to their husbands infidelity...aids is real.

..modified...
The reason y I think he loves her is because he married her despite the presence of those other ladies..the man just cannot control himself...

Abeg make una no vex for this my comment because nairalanders don't dey attack me already.abeg I sorry well a.lol..

Are you high? How can you love someone and knowingly go out to cheat on them?

Juxtified:
lol. Nigerians will finish responding to your accusation and then say they'll not dignify it with a response

English is a problem in Nigeria.

Freiburger:
Mehnnnnn. Killing a dolphin for food?

They are supposed to be eaten as food too. It's basically a fish. But, the difference is, in normal countries, their killing is regulated. Just as whales are.

Owliver:
you are not making sense. let police and army go on strike and see how things turn out. law are executed with force, without forceful compliance there will be no order. without millitary force boko haram would have ran over Nigeria. countries are created and maintained with force. the society is about force.

and about the western kids moving forward what does that mean? building sky scrapers and wearing suits? do we need to measure our 'progress' with their own type of progress? western education brought about corruption. increased need. competition. you take a loan and you pay 30% and they call it business. that is clearly stealing and wickedness. it would have been better if we did just farming and live without worrying about material gains and things like iphone, nice shoes, cool laptosp and expensive cars. the oppressed feel the need to get theirs and jealousy comes in. desperation comes in. crime increases. abeg make i hear word

I think you are confused as to what I mean by force. Ok. I mean beating a child. From my understanding, Nigerians beat their children so that they can become better children and grow up to be good citizens. How is that working out for Nigeria? Nigeria, with all it's beating is one of the crappiest country in the world. Meanwhile countries who don't believe in this are light years ahead of us. If beating a child makes a child awesome, how has it not transformed Nigeria for the better?

Owliver:
though i dont support this kind of force but sometimes force is needed.

without force you cant run a country(humans)

without force you cant know conflict and without conflict there is no peace.

isreal uses force to remain alive

Nigerian Army uses force to keep us safe

War(force) is legal remember?

humans sometimes need physical pains to get motivation to do the right thing.

fight(force) is always the last option to settle a dispute.

so my dear, use of force is not bad dont ake everything the west tells you. wonder why their children are spoilt? too much pampering.

How has force improved the lives of Nigerians? With all the force we keep bringing up more violent people and corrupt citizens. Of what use is force when it does not impact the country positively? Meanwhile children in the west who are "spoilt" according to you are moving forward in leaps and bounds. Force does not solve everything. What is the point of beating a child for waking up late or wetting the bed? Only lazy parents who can't think do that. You can see the result in Nigeria's society and government. And the army and police force is not what we are talking about. Did the army do that to the child?

“If the boy comes to watch

Jeremiah 17:9 - The heart is deceitful above all
things, and desperately wicked!!

Your post is strange considering the fact that Nigerians love beating children as a way of correcting behavior. Plus, you are quoting the bible which also says to "spare the rod, and spoil the child". Brute force signifies poor problem solving skills. This is another reason why Nigerians are extremely violent people. Everything is always solved by use of force. These are the same people who murder suspects at a whim. Smh.

Nigeria's biggest problem is not corruption but it's citizen's mentality.

This is what Nigerians don't understand. Tax is a big deal in normal countries. In Nigeria, it is an option.
