Fuel station that isn't government property.. so you're the one that will tell the owner or manager who to attend to first? If you're angry you can go to another place to buy. Simple.

Lol

U never see film before; maybe because you are not based in Lagos. When everything set, manager go stop selling fuel to protect the filling station and everybody will go home disappointed.

I will like to see u practicalize that ur theory in this kinda fuel queue in Lagos . If ur teeth no full ground, make I know wetin cause am

Gucciboy:
Financial decisions lol,pls give me £50k per week l go survive

See money now when people are collecting 4k per month.

I wonder how Cole Palmer is surviving with £130k poverty allowee

Na greediness dey spoil football no be oil money

You seem to be a very young person going by your posts here. I sincerely hope as you grow older and your needs increases, you will have the wisdom to take the right financial decisions that will better your lot.

lordfalcao:
so why is he crying that he is being arm twisted that he is looking for 500k ?


A player is not bigger than a club. If your package is too big for a club at the moment, they will simply walk away.

That is business

What are u even saying? Chelsea is pricing a player bigger than their budget; they should be the one to either increase their budget or walk away.

Why are u pained Osimehn is telling his own side of the story? Are u a lover of one-sided stories?

TemporaryHansel:
The civil servant guy doesn't pay his own fair share of bill. I pay for the services rendered, even adding more. How do you compare someone that run away from bills to someone that not only pays but even pay more than is required? That's weird.

This is a very false equivalence. I just value comfort. I see no reason why anybody would prefer stress over comfort.

Wait till you jam who pass you on top that queue you are trying to jump, you go believe.

Like hundreds of people will open their eyes and watch you buy fuel ahead of them because you have few thousands of naira to throw around? . Even military personnel dey beg people before they can buy fuel ahead of others.

DeadPresidents:
This time I’ll have to play Devil’s advocate and say this is a sketchy area

The same economic dynamic at play here is the same one that’s at play when you pay for express shipping on Jumia.

If you tell me to wait 5 days for an item and pay 1k or pay 3k and get it today, that means you already have the capability to deliver today but you request a premium to deliver that capability

From a capitalist perspective, he’s doing nothing wrong. He’s just negotiating a premium on a product in exchange for improved service delivery.

From a socialist perspective, he’s a prïck that will be guillotined once the revolution is underway

Sometimes i wonder if sticking to the straight lane in Naija is virtue or foolishness and i say this as someone who was a stickler for the straight lane

Let him go and try it in filling stations where there are angry agberos/motorists wey dey vex, by the time they use him meat rub ground he will learn to do things the right way.

TemporaryHansel:
Is that why both of you escorted Tinubu to power by voting for Peter Obi?

You are no different from that civil servant guy that rigged his pre-paid meter , doesn’t go to work but get paid and wants a better Nigeria .

Just look at how u made disorderliness sound fancy and cool .

If I hear say dem arrest u for Bunkering , I won’t be surprised one bit

TemporaryHansel:
There is no rule anywhere that states the first person that got to a petrol station must be the first to be attended to. When you get there and there is serious queue, just walk in and tell the salespeople to show you their manager. Meet the manager and converse with him or her. Then show workings, and the manager will direct the salespeople to attend to you ASAP. Anybody wey wan vex go vex. Na money businessmen dey find after all.

No wonder u like and worship Atiku

You don’t like things being done the right way at all….. You like cutting all available corners 🤦‍♂️

Jodera:
Likeeee...

The clip touched some of the questions I really needed answers on

1. Chelsea offering very low wage
2. Suddenly, Conte never wanted him even though I know Conte will do with a player like Osimhen
3. Why will he reject Saudi deal?
4. Was he really undesirable or Napoli made him so.

Thank goodness for this part of the story. No need convincing anybody, at least this story justified most of what we were thinking

You see these people arguing blindly urging Osimhen to have taken the deal, I sincerely hope they don't make financial decisions like that in real life

lordfalcao:
osihmen performance related bonuses will see him earn extra 4M or extra to himself, not to Napoli.

If the club qualifies for champions league, there will be contract re-negotiations because there is now champions league football, which means bigger salary.


So martial -man utd deal is not in any way the same with osimhen to Chelsea deal.

You can’t go to tv and say the club offered you only 130k. As if that was the only thing on the table


Which is a big lie and that is my point.


If you want the world to hear your story. Tell it in full details

You are just dancing around the point.

Chelsea offered a deal that could see him earn more if they qualify for Champions league. Osimhen is not daft or unnecessarily emotional to lose potential income because of his love for a club.

Chelsea has not made Champions league qualification for two straight years running; there is no guarantee they will make same this year. But somehow u want Osimehn to accept a contract hinged on Chelsea making top 4 ?

Later if the guy retires and starts doing advert for "Kia-Kia Bet" or starts doing Sports analyst with patch-patch English like Ikpeba, u guys will be the same people asking what he did with all the money he earned during his footballing career.

Next time u get a job in a company u like their office building, please take a paycut or a salary that is based on a bonus system that is not 100% certain.

lordfalcao:
stop acting as if the information of full package Chelsea offered to Osihmen is not scattered all over Twitter.


He is a liar, because the full package was not only 130k

What is full package ? That he will get bonus if Chelsea makes champions league football ?

What if Chelsea doesn’t ?

Do u even know anything about such bonus-linked contract ? 😂

Attached is screenshot of Anthony Martial’s man utd deal. Just look at a potential 7.2m pounds that was never earned by Monaco on the Anthony Martial deal because he never smelt Ballon D’or.

So if Chelsea don’t make top 4, will u volunteer to pay the shortfall in Osimehn’s wages ?

lordfalcao:
if you want the world to know your story you might as well tell the full truth.

Every club will pay salary according to their structure or what they can afford at the moment.


One player is not bigger than a club, If you can’t accept it, it is in your right to decline it.

In one breath u are saying

You can’t lie to the world that Chelsea tried to manipulate you that you are demanding for 500k


And still can’t tell the full details of what the club offered you.

It doesn’t make sense.

If u watched the video, u would’ve heard how much he said he was offered by Chelsea.

However , if u have access to the Chelsea’s CFO’s email u can share with us what u believe Chelsea actually offered him.

You can’t call someone a liar if u are not providing facts that shows the information the person supplied is false

In one breath u are saying a club can only pay according to its wage structure and in another breath u are calling Osimehn a liar for saying what Chelsea offered him (in line with their wage structure ) is not fair to him.

Jodera:
Is Toney and Osimhen the same level?
Haa!!

If you watch that link, you'll find out that the 130k is not really 130k.

And moreover, like I always said, if you know you want to cut wage bill(which I'm not against), why go for Osimhen? Does it make sense?

Chelsea clearly wanted to exploit the situation to give Osimhen paltry net wage and you want him to accept.

Just try watch the link biko (if you haven't)

I don't even get what they are on and about. They prefer to dwell on whataboutism and believe transfer rumours and gossips ahead of the player's own account of the event.

The way Nigerians take stubborn when they set their mind on believing a misinformation ehn. It is well.

I no even get energy to dey convince anybody; I'm just glad we heard the other side of the story and not what they've been parroting around online

EmmanuelScott1:
Just look at this information

Cc.Blueraydick, can you show me where Osimhen agreed terms with Saudis.

We're all here when Saudis bid for Osimhen 65millon plus add one and Napoli accepted it immediately.

Saudis was waiting for Osimhen to accept their salary offer but Osimhen didn't that's why they moved on and bid for toney.

But Nigeria media don carry that napoli after agreeing Saudi offer, requested another 5million and Osimhen told Saudis to pay from the salary 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Which kind cap be this? 😆

EmmanuelScott1:
Lol this is shit

Too many nonsense and stupid information right there

The journalist dropped those nonsense without even talking what his agent said from the beginning "no loan".

If they truly want to discuss this is whole saga, they better start from the beginning.

Where do I start from addressing the nonsense misinformation this arise people just said

So now it is Arise that is doing misinformation ba?

Even when the Arise guy clearly stated that was Osimhen's side of the story? You would rather believe gossip/transfer rumors instead of the man who was in the middle of the whole saga?

Omo!

It is well with u o.

iamoyindamola:
And you expect us to believe because someone came to arise news to say it
Btw why has Mikel not come to say his side

If you listen well, u will hear the arise sports analyst saying he called Osimehn and everything he’s saying was what Osimehn himself told him.

It’s not just “someone came to arise to say it “.

You can choose not to believe it, but that’s his own side of the story u people don’t know but have been labeling him all sorts of name since the transfer saga began.

lordfalcao:
there is also lies on that interview.

Chelsea never arm twisted him that he was demanding 500M

He also didn’t mention that bonuses was offered to him and opportunity for more wage increase if champions league football is met.


Someone can still be saying the truth and still add a bit of lies to look favorably

So if u were in Osimhen’s shoes u would base ur income on the potential that this current Chelsea team will make champions league Abi ? 😒

Why una no like una Naija brother like this sef ? 🤦‍♂️

andrewbaba44:
Basket mouth don open mouth again o 🤡🤡🤡

Ayakata

If mikel Obi was his fan ,there is no way this man won’t come to his podcast

Like Wasiu , like his fans …. person wey play in the World Cup from age 21 to age 37 suddenly doesn’t care about World Cup 😂

When the desirable is not available , the available becomes desirable .

Anyways sha, there’s a lesson in this for everyone. If u don try things and e no work , just turn motivational speaker….. Ur fans will adjust and understand .

airmark:
It's good to always hear both sides of a story. Osimhen was unfairly treated by Napoli.

Using same formula for same mathematical problem will always give same answer

My brother, It is what it is.

GloriousGbola:
Naija. Never thought my pikins would see the queues I saw as a youth, but here we are

Two things our parents witnessed, and we are also witnessing as parents: ASUU strike and Fuel Queue.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Nobody is even sympathising with the people

Just NNPC and Dangote talking shiit on TV.

Market wey i come today just be like waste of time. No customer, nothing nothing

The Sun sef come hot well well[/color]

It's just amusing seeing Dangote carrying bottle of "white petrol" up and down on TV, APC supporters/Influencers shouting their voices hoarse on Twitter running PR for fuel that has no retail price yet, NNPC talking about PH refinery beginning production soon for the umpteenth time, and the citizens sleeping in filling stations to buy expensive fuel.

The whole thing is just crazy!

I just hope they won't start robbing people on fuel queue early in the morning and late at night.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]The thing is just pathetic.

I can't even remember when last we had this kind of situation in Buhari's 8 years.

We have had scarcity up to 5 times in one year[/color]

The whole thing just give On Your Own(OYO) vibes. It’s looking like we are in a rudderless ship.

You can read the frustration on people’s face already .

izzou:


[color=royalblue]He should be careful with how he tries to pull that on queues oh

The kind anger wey some people get. Dem dey find who to pour am on[/color]

People are really argue on the queues.

Unfortunately, the soldiers and LASTMA officials who are supposed to be coordinating things and maintaining things go in orderly manner are working in connivance with touts who manned the filling station gates. They collect money from people who want to enter without being on the original queue. The only saving grace is that no matter how u dey vex reach as civilian, u can't fight a soldier on uniform

The whole thing is causing traffic in different filling stations by the road around VI and Ikoyi axis.

iamoyindamola:
Haa so you know city have 4
I thought it was only arsenal that have 4 players after Madrid because that’s what I read

That's not what his post meant. His post says only Madrid with 7 has more than Arsenal(4). He didn't say whether City has more or less than Arsenal

Jodera:
Bukayo Saka
■ William Saliba
■ Martin Odegaard
■ Declan Rice

Only Real Madrid (7) have more players nominated for the Ballon d'Or than Arsenal.(4)

This shows how far we've really come in recent years. I'm glad our players are getting deserved recognition.

May we never experience again the year of the locusts when dem Mustafi, Sokratis, Guendouzi, etc use our eyes see shege

iamoyindamola:
Lol
City have how many

They have 4 players , they don't have more than we do. Jodera is not wrong with his post

izzou:
[color=royalblue]I really hope Nigerians have learnt their lesson now.

Even if you like Tinubu, at least, be very critical in making a decision.

Someone who was gaffing and avoided debates is arrogant. Na arrogance make this guy scatter everything, of which there might not be a turning back.

I entered public bus today, and i was ashamed to see old women and adults lapping themselves like secondary school children. [/color]

I saw two men slugging it out on a fuel queue this morning. Man A was not on the fuel queue but was on fast lane; He saw the fuel queue moved but one vehicle without driver in it has left a space he could utilize to quickly join the queue.

Man B who was on the queue originally was pissed the owner of the empty vehicle has allowed for Man A to maneuver, so in order to prevent Man A from joining he quickly used his vehicle to block the little space remaining.

Man A was now saying " Shey nkan te'n shey yi make sense? , Ekiti kan naa de ni wa o" Meaning: What you are doing now, does it make sense ? And we are both from Ekiti o. (He noticed the man's dialect is ekiti with the way he was talking)

The man no hear anything o. He just dey vex say shey na Ekiti matter be this abi ? He has been on queue since 5am and u are here telling him to allow you join queue because u are supposedly from Ekiti like him

The whole thing was funny and sad at the same time.

Amoto94:
The culture of fraud/crime glamorized by entertainment industry and endorsed by many in our society is responsible for breeding monsters like this in addition to the poor parenting on the part of many parents.
The guy's timeline revealed his psychopathic nature but many thought he was just cruising.
I pray his victims get the desired justice

I agree with you that the society glamorizes wealth irrespective of how it gotten; be it through ill means or legal means.

However, I won't blame it solely on the entertainment industry and bad parenting. In fact what may be termed bad parenting may actually not been bad parenting per se but parents being handicapped by the sad economic situation they found themselves.

Of recent I just sat down and was thinking of how hard it is for an average parent to even control their kids/disuading them from engaging in societal vices like Yahoo Yahoo. For example, a man who is a civil servant, whose wife is a petty trader and has a 16 year old son who just finished secondary school will find it extremely hard to rein his son in should the son decide to engage in yahoo Yahoo.

Before the man pays house rent, feeds his family, and pay the rest of his bills....etc; will he really be able to cater for the needs of the teenage son on his meagre salary in this hard times?

Sometimes If u go to malls, restaurants, etc u will discover that it is even all those small small boys engaging in these societal vices that are keeping the business owner in business. We are really in soup with the way things are going, its not just parents that shape/form their kids but what is also happening in the general economy.

Amigoss:
He has not been very vocal about what is happening now and the high cost of living,he suppose dey press their necks with agenda

His most vocal supporters are been hounded for "sponsoring a protest" which didn't lead to any breakdown of law and order by people he is shining teeth with,not a statement from him or did i miss it....

[b]The hate I have for Apc,I want him to replicate and show it too,not to be found in same room with them smiling not even at this time,[/b]maybe I am expecting too much

If the bolded is what u think , then u should be supporting Sowore and not Obi. It is only Sowore that has the ability and capacity to deliver on the bolded .

Amigoss:
That picture of Obi smiling,shaking shettima and in that entourage is still doing my head in, very disgusting and insensitive...Aside the protest thingy,I want to agree with Kenneth okonkwo...

You want Obi to box shettima or frown face to greet him ?

Food for thought for all BATists/Agbadorians resident in Nigeria: “Has your salary/income increased by at least 100% in the last 15 months ?”

As for the abroadians , you can please look away.
