A Nigerian That Was Attempting AI In 1971 Was Sent To The Psychiatric Hospital

Gowon was a very bad mistake for a leader , he was a likeable being but like I have said several times being popular, or liked or humble doesn't necessarily mean you will be a good leader l

1. When Gowon went to aburi , he thought it was all fun and games , he didn't take it serious so he didn't cross check all the things ojukwu presented, even ojukwu in his biography noted how lax the Nigerian side was at a aburi.

2. When nigeria found oil fortune Gowon was the one that popularised the saying " money is not the problem but how to spend it " he had no plans on what to do with the new found wealth and that was the beginning of the decline of nigeria .

RandDigital:
South African police have arrested two more suspects in the horrific killing of an e-hailing driver who was murdered inside a car in Pretoria West.

The police launched a probe after a disturbing social media video depicting an alleged car-seat murder went viral, showing the final moments of a driver.

The murder of Isaac David Satlat sent shockwaves across the country, leaving his family distraught and heartbroken.

Satlats’ family has pleaded for assistance to return his body home to Nigeria.

On Friday, police spokesperson Colonel Mavela Masondo confirmed that the incident occurred on Wednesday, 11 February, and that a female suspect had been arrested.

On Monday, Masondo confirmed that more suspects had been arrested.

“The two male suspects, who are aged 30 and 26, will join the third suspect, aged 25, who was arrested on Friday, 13 February.

“All suspects are expected to appear before the Pretoria Magistrate’s Court on Monday, 16 February, facing charges that include car hijacking and murder,” Masondo said.

Masondo added that police are still on the lookout for the fourth suspect.

Obi is totally wrong here :
1. Campaigns have not officially begun, you cant be a law breaker and tell us a new Nigeria is possible.
2. He hasn't even won a party's ticket and he is already campaigning and sharing souvenirs.

Kalulu44:
How will he then maintain the car.

It's like you have not been to the north before , people that marry 4 wives even without any concrete funds , lol , that car na community car . 😆

Sell your Corolla, cash out and move on bro. You no need the car. The money can change your life.

Does he look like someone interested in money? Person wey dey use kunu for inside nylon to Launch his car instead of hennesy or grape wine , these ones are not interested in the materialistic culture of those of us down south.

Pukkah:
Nigeria is sadly sinking deeper into the mud of tribalism with each passing day. Mr Obi should simply engage Mr El Rufai based on facts and not try to befuddle the matter using tribal sentiments.

This aged well .

Kaycee54321:
I see the point she's trying to make.

But this is a fallacy of hasty generalisation - "There is no legal job..." makes her theory absolute, rendering it false.

A mid trim 2025 Toyota Camry fresh from the factory can cost around 30K USD - roughly 40m...

To be pessimistic, call it 60m plus shipping.

There are white collar jobs that pay 6m net per month (excluding bonuses) - I know a C-suite guy earning this amount. And this guy has a boss who earns more...

There are people who have big bonuses after their multi million Naira salaries.

Professionals (like those in sales) can make unbelievable money from commissions per sale...and that can really rack up in volume depending on the type of deal brokered.

So, yes, a brand new car can be bought legally in Nigeria.

The only fact is, compared to the general population, the fraction of people who can purchase a brand new car is very small.

PS: Currently, I can't afford a brand new car. Because una no get manners here. Next thing, someone will come and say their father is claiming rich.

You don't even need to,pay in full , if you have a steady job with 5m per month your bank can finance mortgage for you .

A Russian man is trending.

He goes about casually approaching women on the streets. After some conversation he collects their number, or they follow him instantly to his hotel and he knacks them that very day.

He secretly records them.



Some are married. Some coming back from church.

Some coming back from school where they dropped their kids or picked them up.


What do you have to say?

Does it mean Ghananian and Kenyan women are cheap?


Is it because he is Oyinbo that they easily fell?

Can a Ghanaian or Kenyan man try this in Russia?

AMINDA:
Sycophant. No, it is not your duty to ensure anyone not supporting Tinubu does not win. Your only duty is to campaign for your preferred candidate while ensuring safety and level playing field for FCT residents to exercise their franchise. Nigeria is not a banana republic.

Write this down- apc will clear the elections on February 21.

AderonkeOlaniyi:
To you, anyone who supports Obi isn't logical, but anyone who supports the crooked Tinubu is logical, right?

You just proved your assertion right by jumping to a conclusion that was faaaar from my quoted post .


Indeed most of you obi fans are highly infantile and illogical.

Okoroawusa:
Apt and thought provoking comment. You have captured it all.

I had to check the moniker to see it's truly you. So imacha ife like this?

My brother, if you have been on Nairaland for long , you will know owobokiri was a logical person , until Obi happened to him and then we lost him . I pray his eyes of understanding be opened .

SmartPolician:
Alex Otti and Peter Mbah have made more impacts in 2.5 years than Hope Uzodinma has made in 6 years.

They have made more impact in 2.5 years then obi did in 8 years .

The Davis Cup is the international tennis tournaments for men's national teams.

The competition is currently divided into World Groups 1, 2, 3 and 4.

Nigeria recently defeated Uzbekistan 3-1 in Lagos to gain promotion to the World Group 2. We have now been drawn against Morocco in a match that will take place in Morocco in September 2026.

The winner of that match will get a chance to play for promotion to the World Group 1 in 2027. The World Group 1 is where the best tennis playing nations compete and we could get the chance to see some of the best players in the world in Lagos if we are promoted (as it used to be in the old days).

However, Morocco's last match was against Colombia in Casablanca and the Moroccan fans threw objects on the court and there were problems between players and officials of both teams after Morocco lost 3-1 at home.

Some Nigerians are saying that the Nigerian federation should petition the International Tennis Federation (ITF) to move the match to Nigerian because of what happened in the tennis match between Colombia and Morocco and also because of what happened during the football African Nations Cup.

Fight nearly broke out after Colombia defeated Morocco in the Davis Cup in Casablanca as fans were seen throwing bottles on to the court.

Tinubu doesn't need to win SE, but the influence and attention there is to stop what happened in 2023 to repeat itself in 2027.
You don't know anything about Oyo politics. Seyi makinde popularity is only in Ibadan city which has 11 local government, the remaining 22 local government are outside Ibadan, talking of Ogbomosho, oke Ogun and Ibarapa. 5 parties collapsed their structures for him in 2019 based on feud with Ajimobi. He contested for senate before, he didn't even win the primary.
APC abandoned their candidate, Teslim, in 2023 to support his re-election, based on the deal they had together. Let him win against Wike and Fayose first, then we can assess him political relevance

Seyi can't even win ibadan, stop wasting your time responding to political neophytes who are not even card carrying members of any party.

1. The original deal to build dangote refinery was signed in 2013, and the GEJ admin helped secure the inital loans for the project.

2.Emefiele did also provide continuing loans to keep the project running though.

3. You guys are not having a good life because you want governments that share money to you...like Tinubu. You don;t want productive leaders...or leaders who will make the nation less dependent on oyel

why do you hate tinubu so much , he is doing EXACTLY what you have been advocating for , yet you are not satisfied, SMH.

For Nigeria here?
Tinubu is working.

See fresh toto way una wan carry go give Arab men.... This girl's no dey pity for their lives.

Though not their fault entirely.
Our leaders have failed us.

If the country was working, many of these won't be happening.

Iraqis are not Arabs bro , Iraq, Iran, Turkey are not Arabs.

AMINDA:
Game on! Aproko cho cho cho. We know it's all snake oil from Fayose but I smell fear nonetheless. Seyi Makinde is a big boy and he isn't scared of anyone. Tinubu lackeys say 30 governors will deliver 30 states to Tinubu but tell them that Makinde will deliver Oyo to ADC and watch them begin to froth in the mouth. Seyi Makinde will be bringing more than just funds if he defects. He'll also be bringing the authentic and larger faction of the PDP to the fold. This also reduces Wike's leverage against Fubara and Tinubu because it is now in his own best interest to ensure neither Atiku nor Makinde emerge. Tinubu no longer needs to promise him much to get him to get to work.

Makinde will be beaten blue black in oyo state , it's obvious you dont know ibadan politics .and before you argue I grew up in Ibadan and I know what's up.

Were they? I wasn't aware. Last I checked, the EFCC chairman promised to resign if he fails to jail Yahaya Bello while nothing has been heard about Okowa since he defected to the APC. But know this clearly, Nigeria will never become a one-party state. We know all this is borne out of fear but 2027 is inevitable.

Bello is on bail sir the case is still ongoing .
