OK, I've had a couple of experiences but I will share one as the second experience is quite personal.

5 years ago, I was into sports betting. It happened that I placed a bet with the slip worth 400k. All the games have played bar one. Which was a South American game. Due to time difference, the remaining game was scheduled 3am Nigerian time. How it happened, I do not know but somehow I flew to that stadium in Argentina. It felt so real, I was there live and watched on as the away team looked so good (I staked on the away team to win).

They looked unstoppable and even scored leading to half time. I watched on till about 85th minute and returned to my body. I was so happy and couldn't stop smiling.
Long story short, I checked my bet and it was red. You know what, the home team equalized via penalty at the dot of 90 minute and recall I left the stadium 5mins earlier. Also I confirmed the away side scored just before half time as I witnessed exactly. It's weird, I still don't know what to make of the experience.

Lol , the us is protecting their interests from China but has internal databases for planning and tracking.

You need the citizens info for planning/security.
Eg.
Ni , public services card, nhs etc.


Nigerians are not ready for true development at all.

Ogar, nobody is pulling your call records, sms or geo tagging without a court order.
What true development are you phising for spying on phone conversations of private individuals? What has private sms interaction between citizens got to do with national planning?
Except you want to turn Nigeria to communist North Korea where people walk around with painted smiles on.

All their personal information is all over the internet but one simple sacrifice to make the country safer,mbaa.

Same thing is done in the west oh.

Na useless people plenty for that country and God will continue to use buhari to punish una

Same thing is done in which West? Why was Huawei banned by the US during the Trump administration?

NIN and Imei submittion is all geared towards controlling the social media space. It's a race against time to gag the social media in anticipation for the cat fight in the coming elections.

Victoria Beckham is way hotter than the cheerleader.

This Andy Nwabali character must be a jester. In the morning you're not Igbo, at dusk you're Igbo.

Nigeria would have been a better place if Efcc were this active breaking into corrupt politician homes, confiscating their ill-gotten properties and parading them like common criminals.

There is nothing like African finance summit. It's africa france summit

The guy is actually correct. The African finance summit holds May 18th, 2021.

I have always wondered the magic poultry farmers perform to still sell eggs at N50. I was discussing this with someone just a couple of weeks ago.
I divided in to poultry business 2011 when a bag of feed was 1200. Today it sells for 7k. How can the price of egg remain constant?

Ebonyi has been at this for years. Good to know other states are looking at that direction.

I really like Kuda for what it represents but there customer care service leaves a lot to be desired. It's been up to 1yr I ordered for a debit card, till date nothing, no reply to enquiries. Absolute dead silence. I've already moved my funds jeje and left 1k in that account till they get sense.

Mumu man.

There was a whisper on Monday that fulani heards men were moving towards Isiukwuato, Isochi, Uturu area. Thinking it was one of those haux, scare mongery and rumours people usually peddle, I waved it aside, even called someone in that area who said things were calm.
Only for news to come in yesterday about this kidnap. This is a personal lesson to me never to underestimate any bit of information no matter how hilarious it came across.

Reports came in 3days ago that fulani heards men are moving towards Isiukwuato area. I put a call through to someone in that area and he said everywhere was calm.
Less than 48hrs later we are getting this. Hmm

FG bringing back Sars will be the kiss the of death. The country will simply go up in flames. The bystanders and undecided will join the party to finally sink the country.

maasoap:
Agitations for Biafra started as soon as Jonathan left and Buhari came in. The loss didn't sit down well with you guys, nothing more.

It's not true. I listened to Nnamdi Kanu's Radio Biafra on fm and satellite radio more than 1yr before the presidential election which brought in Buhari.

Buhari should never have terminated Eeben Barlow's contract. The war on terror nosedived by that singular decision. A responsive government should have read the memo to understand why the previous government employed the private contractors in the first place..
5yrs on, you're seeking foreign help which you outrightly rejected as the first major decision of your government.

Someone on the front page used 1.5Tb in 1 month?
It's well oh

KGREAT:
your expression shows how backward and senseless many Nigerians are wired to behave, don't you know that simplicity in this flag is another hedge Nigeria flag has above other countries? Read the book written by Ken Allen. on radical simplicity.

OH please cut that crap. The American flag conveys a message yet maintaining a minimalistic design . I can sight further examples like Mexico, Canada, Brazil, Britain, Spain and Germany.
The message behind the color pallette Green and white is as mundane as they come. How does peace and soil fertility represent a unique trait of Nigeria and Nigerians? If anyone should be celebrated, it should be the guy who designed the coat of arm.
And please shut it if you don't have eyes to critique a piece of art.

theFilmtric:
I am a graphic designer
Simple designs are always best
It's very nice to brand things with a simple design

Besides you expect the culture of about 200.ethnicities represented on a flag?

If you're a good graphics designer you will find a way to capture the diversity of the country with a decent colour pallette while maintaining the subtlety.
That's what will distinguish a pro from an amateur and one shouldn't not expect less from a piece of work that supposedly won a national competition.

Om the brighter side, they could grow to become world sumo wrestling Champs.

I make no apologies, but this man's design of a plain green white green lacks any kind of artistry, very tasteless and bland. Smaller African and European countries have better minimalistic designs reflecting indept culture and history of their people.

I shudder to think how he came out tops in the so called competition. Who presided over the board that decided him the winner? The individual must be blind.

NB; If anyone should be celebrated, it should be the guy sho designed the coat of arm, funny we don't even know the name of the fellow. But history class always taught us about Taiwo Akinkumi

It further said, ” Benue under the Ortom administration ought to cooperate with the Federal Government in the implementation of a number of national strategies programs in addressing underlying issues militating against peace, progress and development.
” This can still get done when the interest of the people is placed above all other interests. A government voted into office by the people, should treat the people as its masters and not as its servants.”

They are still promoting RUGA even in the face of all this crisis?

Killing of women and children is a no no for me.

How low can we go? So Pantami hired fiverr actors for this crap?

Couple of weeks back, there was Intel of a pending attack on Afikpo as it was reported that heavy arms were being smuggled into Oziza in Afikpo North. Days later, we are getting this.
I'm concerned because Ehugbo is a part of me, having served there as a corp member.
I know the soldiers in this particular check point, including the lady soldier. Hmm

I was roped in by someone to attend their meeting. It was a 2hr power point presentation, what really off'd me was the use of Obasanjo's pictures and Patience Johnathan to convince attendees they were participants.

All these schemes always attach images of influencial persons to swindle gullible people. It's like MLM 101.
Years back a particular scheme used Stella Obasanjo's images claiming members will get private jets.
The more things change, the more they stay the same.
