Heterodox:
Not as young as you think brother.

Three decades is young?

Not young then. Marriage scares me too and I'm over three decade.. I feel I can't put up with a woman at home for a long time.

Dididrumz:
Normally na.

And especially to the ladies, don't marry just because of money, because, what happens if something goes bad and that man doesn't have money again?

They will start grumbling till they carry their load.

Heterodox:
Settling down has never, even up till this point, my mind cross.

You are still very young.

That makes no difference. It is democracy and the law allows for anyone to vote anywhere for any candidate. Those arent threats. I am wondering why people who slaughter ur people arent a threat. It is people who make online noise. How? How? Both Igbos and Yorubas throw shades online but never for decades have u heard igbos and yorubas fight in real life. That should tell u a lot. U all are wasting ur energy on something irrelevant while those who are determined to take over ur communities continue their havok, u dey dey fight online banters and people saying they want to vote for a particular party in a democracy. In a democracy, where u reside and pay tax, u hold such leader accountable. In the US, if I reside in New York, and from another state, I will hold New York leaders accountable becus that is where I pay tax
U all want to develop like US but never ready to practise the democracy how the US does it

A population of about 50 million are being controlled and commanded by a 38 years old man who lives in luxury in Finland to sit at home every Monday yet no one questions him everyone obeys, that one no concern you na past events that happens in other region una carry for head.

You HATE a state so much and you gloat whenever any negative news emerge from the state, those who migrate to a developed state or country and their pay taxes in those developed countries don't label the place a no man's land or celebrate any bad news about the state.

And Is it forbidden if the development starts from your side? Or is it forbidden for you to allow non indigene of your state to hold any position in your state/region.

You are demanding for what you can't give as if you even practice what you preached. When it suits you mention the US and when it's time to practice what you preach you give excuses.

Bianca whose husband image is what APGA have been using to hold onto the governorship in Anambra for over decade was prevented from contesting in the same Anambra just a senatorial seat. Yet you are quick to quote what's obtainable in in the US

Those arent issue, they are mere say. U never ask people who are slaughtering ur villagers, raping them and chasing them out of their lands and destroying their farm lands, u never prove to them who owns the land, na people wey dey brag online be ur headache? Hahahaaha, an average black man shaa no get calculation shaa.
All the bragging some of these people made online, some of them arent even based in lagos, did any of them carry out any attack on any Yoruba person? Have u heard that Igbos and Yorubas ever fought anywhere or had misunderstanding ever before? But one countless times, Hausas have fought yorubas right inside yoruba lands and destroyed and killed yorubas, u never asked them to leave or prove to them who own Yoruba lands, na noise makers be ur headache? Fulani herdsmen are doing more deadly stuff but na one Okafo who bragged online be ur headache. No wonder the black race is backward. Always chasing shadows

You don change topic.
There's nothing like online bant it's reality. People in Abia were holding stakeholders meeting about the Lagos governorship election. Lagos LP Twitter page being run from Nnewi.

And why should criticism about good governance be limited to Lagos State only by people from the east? Why the obsession with one state out of 36 state. Why make excuses for your leaders poor performance back home but hold the Lagos State government to a very high standard?
85% of Nigeria's total population live outside Lagos State. Those States have governors who collect monthly allocation from the FG and tax the residents living their, some of them even collect 13% derivative accrued from oil and yet have nothing to show for it but when they commit infractions you makes excuses for them.

Princedapace:
Oga, to fix all these, let Nigeria stop running unitary system of govt. For instance, u want to move national assets like CBN which is funded with all tax payers money to Lagos which would add up revenue generated by Lagos state. Then tomorrow, u want non Yorubas out of Lagos and u want them not to vote any candidate of their choice? Can u all sit down and talk senses to una heads?
The best thing is try as much as possible to decentralize Nigeria so that every region will be free from lagos, so that the general tax of Nigerians wont be going to lagos again rather the tax of yoruabs can be in lagos. This way, no body go follow u drag lagos. And as long as Nigeria runs a centralized system, people will always call BAT name or whoever is in power.
Even America that does not run a unitry system of govt, her citizens are constantly abusing their president even though their president has sense more than all Nigerian leaders.

Nobody wants non Yoruba out of Lagos except for those who have chosen to call their host land a no man's land and tagged them dirty and lazy. And whose secret plan is to upstage their host because they covet the state, those set of people deserve to be told about who owns the state.

Have the Hausas the other major tribe in the country complained about being chased out of Lagos or any other ethnic groups complained?

Proudlyomonna:
Shut up if you don't have anything sensible to say, i am anti ipob.

Only pro Apc zombies and ipob fancies a characterless person like Reno.

I'm not even APC. Good thing I hit a nerve. You are just an hypocrite like most of your kinsmen.
Reno speaks the truth when he was attacking Buhari government and being all nice to the Igbos with his words including Obi. He was your hero until he started criticizing your kinsman then he became your sworn enemy. Same pattern when anyone is fighting your course he becomes your hero until he decided to stop being nice to you guys. E.g Soyinka

Proudlyomonna:
No bcus He is a characterless person who is neither here nor there.

Mr shameless tribalist

When he was fully behind Ipob and Kanu you had good things to say about him.

Proudlyomonna:
Free Leah no sell again
Obi no gree make him attention seeking market sell.
Tifnubu no gree release shishi

Reno you go dey alright

Because he refused to support your kinsman or sing his praise.

kettykin:
See we talking about a country where former slaves are displaying thier cultural heritage and you are comparing it with another country and culture were famers have been slaughtered in ondo , illorin is a vassal state of Sokoto Caliphate and there is presently an attempt make lagos benin express way a slaughter house

And people in the east have been and still being forced to sit at home every Monday for close to 3 years.

Babangidapikin:
They don humble Baba ...staying a fool ..so what happens afterwards .. you start to show your true colors ...

Women will humble you

Armaggedon:
Sit at home region- South east

Crying regions- Unproductive and hungry southwest, hungry and terrorist infested North West and North east.

Good, some of us knew the indigene are in bed with Ipob. They fully support their activities.

PotatoSalad:
Bought three jeans the other day. Only one was a right fit. 🤦🏽‍♂️

Test your Jean before leaving the market or take a fitted you have at home that's your size along with you when going for shopping. It's fancy shoes I find extremely difficult to get my size.

PotatoSalad:
Only problem with my height is difficulty finding the right jeans size.

Jeans is the easiest, to find fitted shoe na wa

Postinor:
wow, nice

As long as you are not tin or lanky, you will more confident as you grow older. Ignore and avoid those people calling you Dogo.

wrongnumber:
6.3 is not really tall jare.

Haa, says who?

Maxxim:
I be 6'5, I've never felt bad about it, I don't even see my self as a tall person until people started talking about my height, but I felt it'll look somehow as a woman as men will feel intimidated to approach her.

.
You are a 6'5 lady?

Makamatic:
Same here . And shoe na also problem

Big problem.

Ballzproblem2:
I will not trade my height for anything I get lots of stares too I don't mind.

height has a lot of advantages,if you carry yourself well people might even be intimidated by you sef

I hate that stare honestly but I've grown used it. The guy is a teenager he will get used to it overtime. Some feel intimidated when they're beside you

Postinor:
I am 6'3 in height and I am 19 yrs of age. I usually feel too tall when I walk around my age mates and what makes me feel insecure the most is when people start saying that I am long.

Tall people out there, how do you survive? I also hate it when people stare at my height when I am walking in the street because I am the kind of person that likes being conspicuous and unseen.

At times I just wish I wasn't so tall, so I would like to know at what age does one stop growing in height?

Lol I understand how you feel, you will get over to that feeling as you age, at 6'3 I used to feel that way too in my early 20s I was very tall and lanky. You will always be seen and noticed wherever you find yourself and some people will always want to mock you or make silly remarks about your height.
But as you grow older you will begin to appreciate yourself and feel more confident.

Ozommadu:
Ijaws have moved on but some people are still looting bags of rice on a moving truck.

Na hunger caused by tinubu cause am

Yes you are right even common onion was looted by angry mob somewhere.

Ozommadu:
Apc yoruba Muslims that insulted him few weeks ago will now hail him today.

They don't support opposition views but that can occupy ojota with protest...their day of reckoning is coming.

You've been crying since 2015. The ijaws who lost election in 2015 have all moved on.

kingthreat:
WTF concerns Ooni of Ife with a corrupt CBN governor?
That is why the Oba of Benin is more respected because of his neutrality on political issues.

That Ooni behaves like a civil servant.

..

Before Lagos state would demolish structures, they should first demolish their archaic systems that are not working.

Go to office of the State Surveyor General, they’re still sorting their files manually.

They’ll give you tracking numbers that you can’t track from the comfort of your house without meeting or interfacing government officials.

The last time I went to track a file, I was told that the fire incident that happened in the OSSG office affected them hence the reason they’re sorting millions of records manually.

I ask if they haven’t digitize their records in 2023 and if they don’t know what they call backup in this age and time.


Attached below is how it’s done in a sane society. They make land information easily accessible to their citizens to prevent people from building on committed lands.

But here, govt deliberately keep the records away from the people. Instead of fighting tooth and nail to fix those systems that are not working, they’re celebrating their mediocrity on the social media.
It’s even more worrisome that the educated and those who have lived in sane societies find it so comfortable to cuddle up this mediocrity than to question it.

Lagos the biggest economy in Africa still sorting their land records manually in 2023 - SHAME!

Is this how difficult it is to obtain land information ion developed societies?

The energy they exert on social media to throw tantrums like overgrown babies should be spent in their offices building systems to prevent this issues from reoccurring.

But then, you can’t give what you don’t have!

Mediocres and opportunists in power

Chinedu is coming don't worry.

Guyman01:
Philip is a good politician but his problem is that Obaseki wants power to rotate along tribal/Senatorial Zones bases just like in Delta, Enugu, Anambra, Cross River, Akwa Ibom and Abia States unlike in Benue and Kogi states where Tiv and Igala sees the office of the governor as a birthright until Ebira decided to collect it by force using mass rigging as per Kogi state.

Power rotation brings calm and tranquility in the states practicing it, during election everyone in the mentioned states knows the zone to produce the governor and all the major parties will feature only candidates from that zone.

Yes Philip Shaibu has every constitutional right to contest but Obaseki also has valid reasons for not supporting him

And what has been the output of zoning in those states? Has it led to massive development? Meanwhile as regards the igala and Tiv domination they hold the key because they are the majority and they have the voting numbers.

ppogba:
The same foreign companies people like you rejoice and jubilate about each time they leave the country. Is that not an irony? The people that they left with brown roofs are far better than the people that have found the brown roof region as their own London and America and will risk their lives to come as an attachment standing in packed buses for 10 hours journeys.

They are always belly aching.

Omoawoke2:
Excuse upon excuse, losers always give excuses.

You people will say igbos build Lagos, unfortunately they can’t point to one single thing they have in Lagos, the major indigenous contributors to Lagos economy are Yorubas

Next na Ogun, another excuse from flat headed skulls is that it is because it is close to Lagos and they are foreign investors. Just accept say person whey pass you pass you

They would soon tag Ogun State a no man's land.

flokii:
You call tell this is an Igbo person from his writeup.. envy written all over.
Which companies have all moved out from Ogun?.. dey there dey yeye yourself.

That's just who they are destructive criticism. Pull him down mentality.

Eriokanmi:
Ogun state would have been richer than Lagos but they lack visionary leaders. Investors come to them uninvited, to build and invest in their state yet, they're doing nothing to enhance this opportunity. Most of these industries were in place as a result of individual efforts. Why is Mr governor not hosting economic summit both home and abroad to woo investors? They leave all to the FG to handle. I won't stop talking about kogi state especially, lokoja where bello had performed woefully. I guess one of the mods on nairaland is related to bello cos each time I mentioned his name, I received a ban. This is one of the psycophants who hate the truth. I'd never keep quiet over this because kogi has the potentials of being one of the prosperous states in Nigeria, given its tourist endowment.

If I were the governor, I'd have collaborated with private investors and built a power plant in the various industrial zones. Industries and housing estates springing up would have just been paying for consumption, without even considering hooking up to the national grid.

I'd have also constructed standard highways that would connect places. Lagos-ota-abeokuta expressway is an eyesore. The governor really messed up big time. All of them just want to steal as much as they can and leave. No visionary leaders among our governors. They keep saying wike is building roads but they don't know good roads bring about development. Anyone in doubt should go to alimosho and see wonders of ambode on road construction. As soon as those roads were completed, land appreciated from 14m naira to 27m naira a plot. Today, it has risen to 42m naira with begging sef. Malls, schools and estates too have sprung up. Most of our governors spend the loans they collected on elephant projects, parts of which they'd massively embezzle. Some would be left half done while others would be abandoned and they'd share the money and leave the loan for their successors to service. The masses are always at the receiving end. We'd be wise someday.

I know the road I mentioned above is a federal road but for the sake of the development of Ogun and ease of transportation, the governor should have done the rehabilitation work and passed the bill to the federal government. Wike did this, ambode and Fashola also did this and they were reimbursed by the FG.

I hope someday, Nigerians would begin to hold leaders accountable and chase them off their positions if they live below expectations. We're mainly psycophants rather than hold them to account. We're an obsequious people and that's why we've found ourselves in this terrible situation where our youths who are supposed to develop Nigeria are leaving in droves . Same leaders caused the mess and we are still praising them. Their juju still dey work because we allowed it to.

Very good, this is constructive criticism this is more like it and not those who criticize everything and anything based on jealousy.

ariesbull:
How many of these industries are owned by Ogun indigenes so that we can know what group economics is

Like Anambra 95% of industrial activities there are owned by Anambra folks making the money stay in the state

But in Ogun there is what is called capital flight! Investors pay indigenous folks peanuts ,declare anything as profit then oay paltry tax and repatriate the rest money back to home


So once again how many Ogun people owns industry in Ogun state or are they just workers ?

Children of HATE are here. Always jealous.

KingCold:
Trust me, they'll never suspect an honest accountant for drugs, they say it "could be" because there are already clues that suggest it could be so

And South Africans are also already saying it's drug related because that's the precedent Nigerians have set in SA, you can't blame us, we are tired of your people

It's the Igbo tribe in Nigeria. They are very notorious
