Amateur, still learning compared to the skaters in Lagos and it's deliberately rehearsed and recorded for a purpose. The skaters in Lagos get recorded by drivers etc not on their team and without prior notifications of the recording

Post some videos.

Why Do Parents in United States Send their Children Packing at Age 20?

It's done because they're adults and don't care to live with them. Alot of comes down to friction over house rules or money. It's really that simple.

How do you know they are innocent?

Everyone is innocent till proven otherwise.

Is smoking popular amongst Nigerian youth? I really haven't noticed it with tobacco in my own social circles. Most people I know like weed and Hokah (nicotine). If they are not doing that, it's alcohol or nothing.

Deserters get executed in war time. The USA military also reserves the right execute deserters in wartime. The only interesting thing to note is if they're losing morale. I don't see evidence it's a major issue for the Russians.

U.S. Code § 885 - Art. 85. Desertion

(c)

Any person found guilty of desertion or attempt to desert shall be punished, if the offense is committed in time of war, by death or such other punishment as a court-martial may direct, but if the desertion or attempt to desert occurs at any other time, by such punishment, other than death, as a court-martial may direct.

Lol I'll never get the point of these retarded threads. You know it's only 1 type of person who does this sort of trolling.

You're one funny dude... If the governor wants a mayor in Aba city, better believe legislation wouldn't have a problem with that.

True I can't find a single example of a state assembly overriding a veto from a governor.

In the case of America in comparison to Nigeria

Think of local governments chairpersons as head of counties while Mayors as head of cities.

A county may have multiple cities in it but each of those cities have their own mayors running the affairs.

In the case of Nigeria, without disrupting the current system, the mayor will be under the LGA but their main focus is to manage the daily affairs of the city and make sure things are done properly.

Understood thanks for the explanation. I'm always for more devolution of functions. I hope this works well.

horsepower102:
Some people asked what about local governments chairmen? Can’t local government do it?

The answer is No because local government are not equipped with the technicalities of running and managing a city.

If it was a rural area, local government can do that but once those areas turn to cities, you need a Mayor.

What's the logical difference between the functions of a mayor and lG chairman? I know certain cities in the US have mayor and city managers. Go ahead and expand your thoughts so the audience better understands you.

Ps: Here's a chart that shows thr organizational structure of a city in Texas.

The more words the more amendments. (In some cases it can be due to ease of amending it)

Abeg, who we offend for this country. All this shout about Nigeria have huge gas reserve.... why are we not harnessing it.

Lol Niger republic sanctions biting?

I really don't get the logic here. How does the verse 🤔 strengthen his position on the matter? It's as irrelevant as stating pork is haram.

marry women of your choice, two, or three, or four; but if you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly (with them), then only one, or that which your right hands possess. That will be more suitable to prevent you from doing injustice.”

If he does it again simply vote no out of principle. Don't act like mumu US Representatives voting yes on bills you haven't read. If they don't give you time to read it or sneak nonsense in it just vote no. You can explain why later.

While Nigeria still rely on the old hydro energy dam that stops when the water dries or very low

State governments like Akwa Ibom rejected Nuclear power plants being built in their back yard.

Teenaira:
It is okay to import things you can not produce or produce efficiently. However, if we make importation an all comers affairs, Nigeria will become a dumping ground for substandard products. Besides, each time we import we are employing somebody in the country we are importing from while we deny our people employment opportunities.

If you make these sort of goods expensive you kill other valuable jobs. By making cement expensive to protect the manufacturers you hurt home builders. That's one less potential project. If you do the same for foods, you get a higher price floor for food. This means less saving and investment.

As you know, Nigeria has a positive trads balance most years. Nigerians know what they're efficient at producing they export those goods and don't import certain others.

Time to start importing Cheap beef and cement.

grandstar:
I concur with you

Actually, traveling to other states can open your eyes to opportunities there.

A geologist who served in the North went into the gemstone business. Others have ventured into agriculture.

Man thats so awesome. I'm happy for those two living the dream. I been reading about gem stones being found. It's interesting to me you don't see big miners going to Nigeria to mine yet.

Lol NYSC is just means to funnel cheap labor from the educated population. State governments and businesses would have to pay market rates for teachers and other professionals is this scheme didn't exist. People with in demand majors would be sought out by employers anyway with or without the scheme.

The excuse it's for national cohesion is lame. If you want to learn about other Nigerians go book take a trip. You're already at a university that's filled with all sorts of people from other cultures.

Nice some progress. The rest of the agencies need to follow his lead.

If you like be on Mars you're still a misfit, soon you'll end up where you belong; water always finds it level.

Unlike you, didn't need to cross the seas to actualize my dreams

Lol OK loser tell me why you're sit around lying about basic facts and the price postage. What exactly have you accomplished in your life? I really don't get your idiotic ranting about making the agencies that serve you more effective at their jobs. Btw Please don't leave the nation we don't need more mumus spoiling Nigeria's imagine.

Ps: Lol mumu liar read todays news.

iLoveYouToo:
If it was made compulsory for people to pay for courier services alongside their passport fees it’s people like you would still come here to scream blue murder. FYI that option exists.

iLoveYouToo:
Omor una too complain. Keep whining. Get a visa and move to Valhalla

Lol weirdo what are you rambling about? I'm not in Nigeria. Broke weirdo why are you complaining about me saying the government should run its services efficiently 🤔? Why did you lie about passports being delivered in Nigeria?

iLoveYouToo:
If it was made compulsory for people to pay for courier services alongside their passport fees it’s people like you would still come here to scream blue murder. FYI that option exists but people prefer to collect it by hand considering how expensive and stressful it is to replace.

Soon passports would be ready on the day of application, we shall get there

Don't assume everyone is broke like yourself weirdo. I been advocating every government agencies simply mail out particulars for years. Fact is, it's less efficient to keep hundreds of thousands of uncollected documents when the mail exists. BTW, if the option exist in Nigeria why did they announce they will start home delivery last may?

Lol is gambling illegal?

fuckJones:
most you wail for every post

Must reply idioticly to every post? Do you disagree with the point?

Leadership of the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) disclosed that 112,351 out of the 204,332 cleared passport backlog across the country were yet to be collected .

applicants, who had applied in any of the passport offices to check their respective centers of application for collection at no cost, before it expires.

Lol you know where they live. Just mail it back to them. What does NIPOST exist for if government agencies don't even want to patronize them? It's mentioned there's going to be a cost in the future so why can't it be factored into the price of the passport?

Leadership of the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) disclosed that 112,351 out of the 204,332 cleared passport backlog across the country were yet to be collected .

The acting comptroller-general of the service, Mrs. Caroline Adepoju Wura-Ola, who made the disclosure while briefing newsmen yesterday in Abuja, appealed to applicants, who had applied in any of the passport offices to check their respective centers of application for collection at no cost, before it expires.

Mrs Wura-Ola who further assured that the NIS, under her watch would not relent in its efforts at providing super services to Nigerians, revealed that out of the over 204,332 backlog of passport applications cleared on the orders of the minister of Interior, only 91,981 passports have so far been collected.

She, however, reiterated the service's determination to remove all bottlenecks in passport application by putting measures such as increasing the number of passport production machines, as well as the involvement of staff in multiple shifts in passport production centers in place.

"I invite applicants who have applied for passports to come and pick them up without paying anything extra," she said.

The NIS boss who however blamed the high demand for the travel document in the last few years on the 'Japa syndrome' in Nigeria, assured applicants that the two-week timeline set by the federal government for the processing of passports would be upheld.

While explaining that both the service and its partners have upgraded their facilities to meet the demand for the international travel document by Nigerians, she revealed that efforts by NIS to make the passport application process fully automated had been concluded by both service and its partners.

In her words, one the process is completed, applicants would only visit passport offices for biometric capturing, as they would have uploaded their photographs on our portal

Speaking on the corruption at the various passport offices, she said, "Corruption is opportunistic, it is made possible where there is exploitive holes, I can assure you that any staff of Nigeria immigration service that is caught in any form of malpractice before performing their statutory duties will be severely punished, I have the directives of the minister of Interior, we will make scape goat out of tyrant officials."

Adepoju warned applicants to shun touts, and urged them to contact the Service via 08067761196 , should any personnel demand a bribe from them to get a passport.

"Any personnel caught demanding bribes would be severely punished. The Minister has directed that we make a scapegoat of any corrupt official caught," she said.

She also, however, praised officers and men of the NIS for working day and night including weekends and public holidays to meet up with his directive.

“The constant raids have soiled the image we have built over the years. I contemplated suicide because the thought of the loan repayment has been affecting me. The EFCC did injustice to me and my business, I am hurt.

No point in killing yourself over debt. If you can't pay it then file bankruptcy. The parties that lent you the money took a risk and lost if you can't pay them back. They charged interest knowing there's risk and alternative uses for the cash. Ask you lawyer if the EFCC can be sued for damages instead. It's better use if time than pondering death at least.

tomax026:
Is NJC Dead that judges are misbehaving everywhere cos of money and sentiments?

Is the a NJC the only body capable of regulating the judiciary. I would assume the State assembly can but the rubber stampers don't move unless instructed by the governor.

“The two sureties must provide evidence of having N5m in their respective bank accounts. One of the two sureties must be a community leader in Ilorin, while the other must own land with a Certificate of Occupancy properly signed by the government. The two sureties must have evidence of tax payments to the government at least in the last seven years,”.

Pls how can a common man residing in Ibadan given this strigent bail condition in ilorin for a mere defamation case.

Lol why do judges get the latitude to make bail conditions so ridiculous? I thought bail conditions are determined based on threat level to society and likelihood the person will flee. I will continue to argue US bail schedules better despite having to pay. Tomorrow Nigerians will wonder why prisons are full of awaiting trial inmates.

Enjoying his life.

HellVictorinho6:
But what if i find no reason to discuss the political drama since i cant find anything enough unto that .

I believe that's normal. I get bored of certain topic even ones. I'm more interested in playing video games, reading uncomplicated books and earning cash 💸. As much we should be concerned with politics of our society we do need a balance. Im not saying you should give into nihilism but chill and enjoy other aspects of life. Plan for your future and do whatever benefits you long term.
