Oya, follow me make we go back....to those days wey dem dey tie sweet and coloured ice cream in waterproofs.,....those days of Treetop juice and Planta Butter.....those days of Black and White Sanyo and National TV.....those days wey we dey go school without sandals......those days wey we dey eat 3 square meals in a day.......those days when there was no kidnapping or banditry......Oh my dear, let's go back to those good old days when one lived peaceably with his or her neighbour, when a child belongs to the community to raise......those days of no Akpabio and Tinubu in power....... May the good Lord help Nigerians in Jesus Name
Chai! Those good old days o!
Thank you for bringing this feeling of nostalgia.
You are indeed from my generation, as you wrote this without insulting anyone or cursing anybody's father.
Smitaro100: Since d day I caught a lady running a restaurant scratching inside her asshole vigorously with her long nails with most of d feaces stuck inside her finger nails, without washing her hands she continued cooking.. that's y I so much dislike ladies fixing long nails..
Bro, 1.you caught her scratching her ......... vigorously, 2. You saw her long nails 3. After scratching vigorously, you saw faeces on the long nails.....
Was she cooking naked that she could easily scratch vigorously and bring out faecal matter or at the point she needed to scratch she took off her underwear and used her long nails to scratch?
Senioreddy: 10M is too small for one to take the risk of being a surrogate mother. Imagine carrying the pregnancy for 9months and then release the child to an unknown person with the clause of not coming in contact with the child. Abeg reason it well. Is 10m enough. It becomes worst when the child grows and becomes a notable figure. Imagine the torture
Hian! Surrogate wan come drag pikin with the mama and papa wey produce egg and sperm to form the pikin after dey don pay am money just to help the carry the pregnancy? Ohhh!
No matter how notable or otherwise, whether the child becomes a menance to the society (Heavens forbid) it is no business of the surrogate.
How many times have International airlines been held responsible for flying a terrorist into another country or praised for bringing in a vaccine that saved lives?
NairaOcean: Viral photos of a man with his wife and two kids wearing matching outfits have caught people's attention. One remarkable aspect of the photo is that the kids are extremely fair-skinned, while the parents have a chocolate complexion.
The question now, Is DNA Still Needed?
My Bro, have you considered the possibility of albinism in the their genetics?
Crenzywilliams: Nigerian secondary schools gave become death traps, where was the house master all along, so no one student was brave enough to tell an authority figure, and the house master never visited his hostel for a period of 8 hours?
Tho I've been more of a better writer than a speaker, right from time.....The worst of it all is that I come dey ride keke join......You can imagine the high level of rubbish English I encounter on a daily basis . Agbero just turn me to their colleague due to how they speak...
080cee: Sometime in 2020 just immediately after Covid lockdown, my father got a call from a certain “Williams Williams” as identified by Truecaller… he claimed to be from his bank without mentioning a particular banks name. During the cause of their conversation about BVN linkage my father asked “what is your name”? the criminal said Mattew from your bank. Again my father asked “Why then is Truecaller showing your name as Williams Williams then he replied “ I didn’t register the line with my real name” immediately my father said Call me with the bank Line and we can finish the conversation…. Until today we are still waiting for his call.. Living in a society filled with scammers, it’s essential everyone both young and old make use of Truecaller for true identity of their callers.
That scammer get respect for elders so he did not insult your Dad. The ones I have encountered always end the calls with insults ( one even insult my papa wey don pass on since). Me I will be like "me and you who suppose insult each other"?
No medical personnel in the world claims to raise the dead unlike your dear herbalist.
I feel sad when I come on Nairaland hoping to have a discussion and I see posts and reactions like this. What is your justification for adding "your dear hebalist" to your response?
KillIgbohoN0W: So what did the herbalist tell his followers after he failed to revive him??
I've always been curious about things like this and hope to find myself in such scenario because I will boldly ask the herbalist/cleric/pastor if he/she is powerless.
For you to attempt to revive him means your deity assured you it was capable. Failing to revive him means your deity is either powerless or fake.
Simple.
Pls do not be in a hurry to say such. Not because I patronize them but because reading your post, I was wondering if you would say medical science is powerless if someone taken to a medical practitioner does not make it out alive.
LocalStandard1: I decided to post this as I noticed a total mental, emotional and general transformation about myself after being off Nairaland for literally months. first long time off since I discovered the forum more than a decade ago. Maybe you too can learn something.
- NIGERIA--- Firstly not reading real time news about Nigeria and knowing what goes on in the country and what happens or doesn't has made me realize it is Nigerians and there "leaders" that are the biggest problems with a very negative view point about everything and each other. The opportunities everywhere are very immense and with a population of well over 200 million there are no limits and only very few can match the market . Being too engulfed with Nairaland has a way of brainwashing you to believe you're better off leaving Nigeria and life is better anywhere else but here.
-TRIBAL AFFILIATED SENTIMENTS--- I just bought a business from an Igbo person, he trusted I would do better and trusted me from Kaduna State even more than two other interested candidates who're of his tribe, maybe even same State of origin. Consciously or unconsciously every Nairaland members is almost far gone on tribal bigotry, every. And I have learned the most ignorant but very dangerous people are tribal bigots and jingoists. Nairaland recruits them and sustains them, they're so far gone they would never know how much.
- SELF HATE --- The most racism on Black People you can find is among Nairaland members, nobody hates Black people in general and Africans in particular like Nairalanders and Nigerians. What makes it overwhelming is they themselves are both Black people and Africans. The self-hate and self-demeaning nature is so shocking I begin to wonder "should I fight the Whites and Asians against racism and educate them about African and Black people's history or fight and educate fellow Nigerians first?"
Coupled with the fact the White-worship on Nairaland is something I've never seen anywhere else other than among other Nigerians in person. Everyone want some kind of White-approval online I begin to wonder "are they writing this comment or post for some foreigners here? "
- "GENDER WARS"--- One of the most pitiable state you can be in is being a gender warrior and I thought only young guys here are gender warriors till I realize even married women here too seem to engage in it and by extension looking like they disdain their so-called "husbands", and I pray the singles just remain that way so as not to burden someone else with such unfounded venom. I pity and I fear! Nairaland promotes, encourages, sustains and feeds on the hate of the other gender you're not one of. It seems like only for laughs but it is actually pitiable, sorry state of mind.
-THE STATS SHOWS HOPE --- I am satisfied when I looked at the Nairaland stats and saw that a majority of the members no longer come online, with less than 1,700 online at any given time of day, it shows majority are tired and want no part in what seems to be comfortably pushed.
I think Nairalanders most realize you can never win the internet, and it is not healthy for any aspect of your life this intense internet negativity you project but it takes from you more than you know and far more than you will ever admit.
Trust me, I very much know. Better luck! .....
I totally agree with you. These days, lot of the posts and comments on Nairaland make me wonder if they were written by adullts or minors. It breaks my heart when I read posts of supposed adults abusing parents and running down the opposite gender.
Some people are so disrespectful that I wonder if they will be able to say some of the things they say here to the people they say them to if they meet up with them.
CilicMarin: Do whatever you wish with these two pictures.
Bro, if you ask me ehn, no much difference o. Only that the corper's own is newly done.
Did you notice that the corper's own is sitting on a piece of wood that can easily give way and the tank could be damaged while the other is on a concrete slab?
Also, is it possible that a die-hard Peter Obi fan did that and wants to give the glory to Peter Obi? (Just thinking out liud though).
AdetolaTemi: Before nko Ivory won does not mean they played better football although I don't care about ranking nonsense same as in cricket but the truth is Ivory Coast played no football in this last tournament they are just lucky and their yeye superstition that mistakenly favoured them that is all.
To be honest, the Elephants of Ivory Coast played better than the Super Eagles at the finals. Even the stats during and after the game showed it. Remember the stats are electronically generated via AI.
I felt really bad when the former Bafana Bafana player in the studio was analysing the match after the game and he said "the Eagles played poorly or rather, the Elephants made them look like tbey played poorly ".

DON'T EVER CURSE YOUR COUNTRY 1. If you don't know how you are blessed, you will think your father's farm is worse than your friend father's farm. 2. $1 is ₦1.500 and so what? 3. Let me elucidate from my little experience. Can anyone in the US use $1 for breakfast? No!
4. But in Nigeria, ₦1.500 will give you breakfast and lunch. 5.Majority of people's monthly house rent (self contained apartment) in the USA is $1,000 and above... and that is your own 2 year's rent! 6. Have you ever paid for insurance before? Insurance in the US is $280 and that is almost ₦100,000 monthly. 7. When last did you pay monthly phone bills? I pay almost ₦40,000 monthly and if I don't, they are going to block my SIM. Your own MTN can be there for months without recharge. 8. When last did you work on Saturday and Sunday? 9. This I do compulsorily and on regular basis. 10. Don't get me wrong, the US is better than Nigeria, depending on which angle you are viewing it. 11. Do you want to hear the truth? 12. Many people in Nigeria live a more fulfilling life compared to their counterparts abroad.
13. Forget about all the packaging on social media and give credit to the good life you are living. 14. Do you know why Nigerians living in the US always rush back quickly whenever they come home visiting? 15. Because bills are counting and elongated absence (freedom) will put their lives in jeopardy. 16. If you, as a black person, attempt to emulate the whites, they will kneel on your neck. 17. Apart from Congo, no citizens in the entire universe enjoy life to the fullest than Nigerians.
18. You are abundantly blessed but you don't know until you get visa and relocate abroad, that is when you will know that your 8-hour job in Nigeria with free weekend is awoof. 19. With 11-hour job abroad, you can only pay bills, you need other 6 to 8 hours jobs to save for the future and plan your life. 20. The truth is that the grass is green everywhere, it's lack of vision greed of our leaders/politicians and the skewed religious practices (which placed emphasis on miracles) that ascended Nigeria onto a myopic tentacle of complete standstill. 21. Always thank God wherever you may find yourself. Nigeria is good and will be better. 22. God bless Federal Republic of Nigeria.
