the guy was not wise sha

once you are outside the major cities on the roads, especially at night, the police can literally kill you

who goes around telling armed men in the bush i am coming from the uk

rule 1 carry photocopies of your papers. blown up ones and give them those. police, frsc dem always want to hold onto your original.
rule 2 on any long journey just stash n200 in your glove compartment.
it may be hard but try to smile at them.
dragging only escalates the time wasting or worse
you can be in the right, but they are the thugs with guns in the middle of nowhere who can sicc kidnappers onto you after the checkpoint

He gave them original of his drivers license because he's convinced he didn't commit any crime na.

Let's not blame the victim for doing the normal thing by presenting originals of his driving license/vehicle particulars.

It's the policemen that are useless. They should've let him go the moment he told them he didn't have any money to give them. They just messed their lives up and will most likely be demoted or dismissed from the police force with their hope of pension gone. Good for them tho!

You may not be wrong sha.

If skidding off a runway can pull out the entire back wheel, imagine if it happens as it was landing.

No be fatal accident be that?


God have mercy

Na painful exit be that 😢

izzou:
Plane skid from runway, and the back wheel comot?

I have never seen airline business as profitable sha. Na with all these 120k dem wan use maintain plane?

I don't know if it's just me, but I don't trust any airline owned by government ; either state or federal government. I always prefer airlines owned by private business men like ValueJet and the likes.

You see all these Enugu air, Ibom Air, etc, I no just trust them Sha. I just feel the incompetency of government/civil service will always shine through in such business being owned/managed by government and it's agencies.

I may be wrong Sha, but that's just how I feel.

The more we look, the less we see

We have pending cases of kidnappings on ground. Na Oyo own judge conclude in weeks.

We cannot do without politicizing everything in Nigeria

Dem just dey whine themselves.

izzou:
He is not forcing them to buy the car because he wants to sell it. He is forcing them to buy, because he wants the transaction completed; He wants to have proof of exchange between him and the guys

You really don't know how bad these cases.

3 months from now, NPF would be arresting you for a transaction you know nothing about.

I think since the case has already gotten to police station, the dealer is kinda safe sha even if yawa gas few months later.

All he needs to do is pay for police report on the incident and keep the police report.

If there's any issue later arising from source of the fund they transferred to him, he can always use the police report as evidence that indeed a transaction was to be consummated but later cancelled with the knowledge of policemen who mediated in the dispute.

izzou:
With all the kidnap going on in the NE and NW, why haven't the FG apprehended the families of the Kidnappers, so they can catch the suspects?

How come it is this Oyo case that we are hearing about this Master strategy?

Bello Turji no get family? Abi is his case similar to that of the Master strategist; People without a history?

So our Defense structure can use families to catch kidnappers, but for years, we have had back to back tragic cases.

God is Wonderful!

The story na Faabu normally!

Oyo kidnap incident was not even carried out by normal bandits/kidnappers but Ansaru Terrorists i.e. hardcore Jihadist, not the regular petty kidnappers. So they want us to believe those Fundamentalists family were traced and they quickly released their hostages because their families were traced and arrested?

If that's the case, maybe they should start tracing all the families of Boko Haram, ISWAP, Ansaru and Lakurawa terrorists so they can start giving up their hostages in the bush na

GloriousGbola:
you who follow the news religiously somehow missed this

https://www.vanguardngr.com/2026/07/oriire-schoolchildren-how-arrest-of-kidnappers-family-members-led-to-rescue-of-victims/



i have said more than once that the fgs response to the first kidnap by mend unfortunately paved the way to make this an industry

the show of force during ambodes tenure when those school boys were kidnapped, and also in the kidnap of adelabus sister is to send a message to others - because that is how it works - as a criminal you also have to do your own risk assessment

I didn't miss it; I am saying that's a super story that has no credible source. It is a beer parlor gist they decided to give flesh and post as being news worthy.

Who is the security source they quoted in the article?

What happened to the family of the so called kidnappers they arrested eventually ? Did the security agents release them after the kidnappers "released the victims" ?

I hope you know it is Ansaru terrorist group that carried out the Oyo state school children kidnap? Are they inadvertently telling us FG has a way of reaching out to Ansaru terrorist group?

Even if you try to believe the super story, there are a whole lot of things that don't add up and make the FG look really really bad if they want to stand by this story.

GloriousGbola:
i am sure you have read the accounts that the dss identified the family members of the kidnappers, detained them, and sent a message - we will fk over your own loved ones if anyone else dies

we now have a speedy trial because the FG is sending a message to all of them - don't try this again.

This reads like a scene from a nollywood movie

izzou:
This whole scenario looks fishy

Nobody goes to buy a car from someone for the first time, transfers money, and walks away to eat.

I don't think the Police and the mob were stupid enough not to know a genuine transaction. It must have been clear that these guys ran a fake transfer before they were bundled to the station.

I agree that the same account must be refunded, but there must be a written agreement that it was strictly a business transaction, of which the funds was reimbursed.

Let's even give them benefit of doubt and work with just the information provided in the incident report and not make assumptions. So let's say indeed they went to eat and didn't run fake alert.

There's a chance the money may have come from a criminal source like ransom payment or an account they stole its login details. The koko is the dealer must be very careful when refunding the money so they won't get into trouble if security agencies come calling later.

eddie7:
Two guys waka enter car shop to buy a car, after selection and negotiations, the guy wey wan really buy the car transfer money to the car dealer account, car dealer say him never receive alert, the boy say ok, leave the car first make me and my guy go find any nearby restaurant to eat food as we dey wait, but the car dealer immediately raise alarm say na fake alert the boy do for am, na so area begin wose the boys until police wey car dealer call arrive, police quickly sieze the boys phones and bundle them go station, as the boys dey write statement naim car dealer receive alert.

Now the boys say them no want the car again make car dealer refund mone, car dealer dey insist say the boys must collect the car since them don already pay for the car.

The car dealer should return their money, but he should only transfer the fund to the same account from which the boys sent the money. That way, he can ensure they didn't use his account to wash/launder dirty funds.

That being said, the car dealer cannot compel them to buy considering the embarrassment/assault they have suffered from the car dealer and the mob. If the car dealer refuses to refund, the boys should go and carry soldier from barracks and use to recover their funds by force.

CrystalTiger:
The subsidy story is the one that even has my head in Mars..

Eight years under Buhari, Nigeria spent 11trn but just three years under Tinubu we've gone over 7trn lol..

They will find one name to call it other than subsidy.

CrystalTiger:
This Tinubu is doing some unprecedented looting..

How can you swore by the holy books to uphold the constitution and then disobey and break the written rules?
How do you run a country for 3+ years with less than 30% budget implementation?
Didn't they say Tinubu is a First class Accounting graduate? pic.twitter.com/GZoxPYIKKr

— Femi Obaf (@OBAF4U) July 21, 2026

Tinubu just dey run the country with impunity dey go. He is not even bothered of the aftermath because he knows majority of the rubber stamp house of assembly that are supposed to checkmate him are behind him; and then he has hordes of Agbado eaters willing to off cloth and say just anything to defend him online. No sense of accountability.

They keep borrowing and borrowing without doing proper account of the revenue they've been able to generate, what the revenue is being used for and give reasons why we've borrowed more under his government at a time we are being made to believe govt no longer have to pay subsidy anymore & by so doing they have more funds available to carry out essential projects.

This dubious government, the more you look the less you see.

Some people also call Trump a distasteful character but he is the number 1 man in the world today. Wike is a Nigerian who was voted in by his people. Your standards are yours and dont have to be what others like/want

This has nothing to do with personal standards, but general level of decency and decorum expected of an average human, Wike lacks it.

You are seeing everything through the prism of ruling party vs opposition party politics, I am talking about the man Wike ; his character and what the average person thinks about him and what he represents.

He represents everything that's not well with our current society. It's unfortunate anybody will praise him and say such a man is the next best thing after jollof rice 🤮.... Is it his disregard for human life we want to talk about or his penchant for openly threatening violence when things are not going his way. He doesn't just threaten violence, he backs it up with actions.

Remember how he had houses of those who opposed him in Rivers state torched with dynamite? That's the man you are trying to draw false equivalence with by comparing to Trump's situation in the US. Haba!

Emaprince:
I dey tell you.

Even the ones of 150k people are suggesting wont do much. That person just have to cut his/her coat according to his/her size qhen it comes to usage.

I remember when my phone screen damaged in 2024. I went to fix it and the price was 300k(to replace the screen). I just said let me buy a redmi phone at 155k..so I can use within the week until I fix my phone.. As I use that Redmi, e be like say na toy dey my hand. I hadnt even downloaded anything, but I was already disgusted with the speed at which it responds and load. The next day, I rushed to slot and paid to get my phone screen fixed.

I dashed the Redmi out instantly.

Personally, I'm not a fan of android sha because of their yeye hanging . Since I started using iPhone from the days of iPhone 6 back then, iPhone won me over by not hanging unlike androids of the same functionality and same features with the iPhone 6.

I just stopped having anything to do with Andriod

Emaprince:
Its not hanging because she is probably not doing much with it. That must be a girl living modestly.

Result may vary in the hands of another youth

Once pics, videos, and lots of social media apps plus the downloads start going in...that phone go dey commot smoke.

This user too won't be using it to do so much jare. Na just basic usage for normal calls, video calls and may occasional photographic usage.

pocohantas:
Indeed it is. I just asked her if it is hanging or giving any issues and she said NO. It was bought Nov 2025.

If the recipient a young, female and moderate user, she would like it. Those ones check sleekness and camera.

The would-be user just needs the phone for normal phone calls and video calls when required. Not necessarily to do so much multimedia and social media usage. I think the phone should do.

raumdeuter:
It was this character that gave him the power to become 2 term governor and which people like Fubara benefitted from. All these things you accused him of was part of him since he came to limelight and was praised by his supporters then

Maybe The character of Wike is what his people liked that made them support him as LG chairman, minister, and later governor

Very distasteful character that shouldn't be encouraged nor praised in a sane environment. But then again, we know Nigeria is far from a sane environment. It is well.

raumdeuter:
That is politics and the way its played all over the world. Character of men like Wike is why Fubara got into power in the first place, without Wike, Fubara wont win landlord association election on his street

I'm talking about the character of Wike as a violent man; his character as FCT minister that's been going about allocating lands to his kids, friends and family members. The Wike character that has bastardized our judiciary and not hiding the fact that members of the judiciary are being induced by Greek gift that has made them lose credibility.

I am not even talking about his fight with Fubara, I am talking about the character of the man Wike himself. It's not something that should be praised neither emulated at all.

raumdeuter:
Wike na man you be oh
I remembered when people were shouting that Fubara will be governorship candidate in 2027

I am supporting President Tinubu for the presidency and OK Chinda to be the next governor of Rivers State. I am part of the rainbow coalition (Wike's political group), and I'm back to my political family.

There's nothing to celebrate about character of men like Wike. He is a representation of everything that is wrong with us in this country.

Unless na Second hand, no 100k phone make sense oh (That's if you will find it)

Thanks, I will increase the budget as advised.

pocohantas:
They do now. Any product targetting the Nigerian market has to do budget items. Except they don't want to sell. It is actually a fine phone and I was very impressed when I saw it.

Some pictures she took with it.

Wow! For a budget phone, the camera quality is very sharp.

iamoyindamola:
100k phone in tpain economy is fry pan to fire, make the person no swear for you o
Kindly up your budget to like 150, itel and redmi are producing budget friendly phones that can function well especially itel

Thanks, seems I don't have a choice but to increase the budget. I will check the Samsung series out now that I know they have budget phones too

pocohantas:
I got my domestic staff a Samsung A07 4G/64GB RAM months back for 123k on Black Friday sales

I like it because it is beautiful and has a fairly good camera for a budget phone. So you can add something and get that. At least you will be sure it would last and it won't look like a punishment gift. Those type that will keep sending you to a phone repairer.

Okay, thanks. I will check if they have at slot; didn't know Samsung do budget phones too.

I would prefer Samsung budget phones to any of those Tecno/infinix sef.

GloriousGbola:
100k go hard gaaa

https://slot.ng/categories/phones-and-tablets

their stock has gone down because like a month ago they had phones in the 100k range

https:///ikeja/mobile-phones/samsung-galaxy-a06

samsung a06 should be 120k

Thanks, I guess I will increase my budget to N120k then. Will definitely check the Samsung out at Slot.

Abeg does anyone know of any Tecno or Infinix android phone that is within N100k budget they can recommend?

I want to get it for someone, but It's been a very long time I last knew anything about android phones(especially the Chinese ones) , their features and prices. Just need a recommendation of Infinix or Tecno that can do video call , have a decent photography and video camera within N100k budget.

CC; Iamoyindamola, izzou, GloriousGbola, and any other person that may have a recommendation for me.

unless your parents [father in particular] drilled you on safe sex etc repeatedly - most guys will dive raw.

more so when we don't really have a protective sex media campaign


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_0bhT98g9Y

may not work for naija sha as dem go lave teh pikin with the mother and carry on diving

But as a man, person supposed dey afraid of STDs/STIs more than pregnancy and refrain from diving in raw into any random woman. Pregnancy can be taken care of one way or the other, but STDs/STIs can be end of a person's life.

I think guys should be more worried about STDs/STIs than pregnancy when it comes to consequence of diving in raw.

GloriousGbola:
imho this is only for western nations where an unwilling father has to pay child support
it is foolishness in a third world country where nothing will happen. you can see all the drama cubana chief priest one night stand chick is making - no dice
same came up with sophie and davido

rest assured if a woman does not want to have your child for any reason, she will terminate it. this even applies in nigeria. it is only the underaged or desperately poor - but anyone of means or with a support system - if she doesn't want to have your child she will not have it and there is NOTHING you can do about it. a child should be a choice between TWO PEOPLE not one

a woman of age 30 who does not have paper like that will not take in for a guy who cannot provide

You are right, it's only in Western world all those child support matter dey work out in favour of the female gender.

In Africa and most especially Nigeria, the woman eyes go see shege !

But generally sha, having and rising a child is supposed to be shared responsibility between the father and the mother .

A40:
Women hate rubber pass men. Unless she's had a very nasty STD/STI or pregnancy scare they actually prefer you cut em raw.

All my liasons I can count on one hand the number of times women have insisted on rubber and if I wanted it raw I got very little pushback. Some even take it P if you insist on rubber. They will tell you they are on BC or ask if you think they are dirty

But you're right Olise no suppose jogodo like that especially as paid as he is. Even as a normal civilian if you're shaggin a woman in her mid 30s. Good luck. At that stage they're cool with babies with or without a husband unless she's a career professional or anti natalist. Now talk less of you wey fit retire am

I feel all those dem Olise are Ajebutter a.k.a Omo mummy and they do not really know the way of the world when they started diving in raw.

Older babes for a young in shape nigga with money are the easiest to knack. Don't forget a lot of men (and this is an uncomfortable topic) were also preyed upon by older women in their younger years and just acquired that taste for older women.

Macron
Endrick
Zlatan

Don't forget most of these high school teachers always caught with young boys as well

It's just that female sexual deviancy is trivialized

There are also a lot of 30+ that clean up nice tbh. Even nicer than the younger women.

When you add that combination it's easy to why he go lose guard like so many men before him

I get u . I just feel the man has a lot to lose and should always mount his guard and not loose guard

GloriousGbola:
This is 2026 and most of the time any woman who gets pregnant wants to get pregnant

There are iuds, morning after pill and abortion.

Those things have side effect, that's why some women avoid any of them. Some of those pills alter their menstrual cycle, the family planning stuff to block their uterus make some women fat and they do get complications from abortion.

I think it's a shared responsibility between a man and woman sha. As a man , if u play stupid game u will win stupid prize o.
