IDF waited for when he would not have any civilian as human shield like he had in the picture Okpa posted , then took him out .

IRGC will be busy sending missile towards residential areas in Israel

They didn't even make the trip low key, out of respect for those who lost their lives.

All Service Chiefs stand for line, dey smile because dem wan say "Bye Bye"

I saw the clip and just shook my head .

izzou:
Maiduguri was bombed, and the next day, the President departed for the UK.

Now, this is not even my annoyance.

It is that ALL THE SERVICE CHIEFS were at the airport to tell him bye bye.

How low will these people go before Nigerians get it?

One thing that I've from day one about this government is that they don't care about optics. They don't care how bad things actually look or the kind of wrong message their actions and inactions sends to the general public.

They just do things and don't care how you as a citizen sees it.

That is a very dangerous attribute for any government in a democracy. If it were to be an autocratic dictatorship, it would be very understandable.

Nice caveat

Yes o, because no be everybody dey think like normal human being.

E just remain for the guy to add, “Fire, enter”.

Let’s even assume that somehow Palmer can do a job at CDM (which he can’t), if you play him there you simultaneously weaken both your defence and attack with one single move

Funniest thing is he actually wants us to convince on what is wrong with his suggestion 😂😂😂

izzou:
Tooorr

I think the strategy is to make enough noise, so there's no room for any voice of the opposition.

All these endorsements only guarantees the votes of the endorser.

Na why na people wey like camera dem dey pick as ambassadors.

Abi....

Shey na person wey dem demolish him house for Iyana Oworo against court order go say he will reelect the government that supervised his homelessness because his favorite celebrity endorsed the government?

Abi shey person wey his relatives died due to insecurity go say he will vote for status quo to remain because his favorite actor says "one good turn deserves another " ?

It will be fooolish for someone to vote continuity of a government that has overseen gradual reduction in his purchasing power and inflation eating his income simply because of his love for a favorite celebrity who endorsed the government.

Good but I hope you have now learnt a thing or two from what I schooled you on about Saka some time ago.

It shouldn’t shock you that the season Arsenal is looking almost certain of crossing the finish line is same season fans around the world is realizing Saka is a fraud.

My insight on player’s ability never fails me.

Saka is having a stinker this season and there's no sugar coating it.

Whatever you think you school me about Saka's ability as a player over the years, it doesn't change the fact that Saka is a very good player who has the numbers to show for it. At the age of 24 he has had a good showing in the Euros and World cup for a team like England where starting shirt is very competitive.....He has enjoyed good seasons in the EPL for a number of years now.

So if you are here to say Saka is a mid-player, that is your opinion and you are entitled to it. I won't even try to convince you otherwise becaus it is of no use.

Nice, trying to compare between airtel and mtn the one I should go for

If MTN fiber X coverage is in your area, you can go for it. Wired connection is always faster than mi-fi .(According to what I've heard different tech content creators claim on TikTok) . But if MTN has not installed their fiber X infrastructure close to you, the Airtel ODU is a very good substitute.(at least for me)

I have an old MTN 4G router that always stand in place for me when airtel network fumbles once or twice a month sha.

iamoyindamola:
BlueRayDick
How's the Internet so far

It is serving me well for now. But I noticed that sometimes when airtel network is down generally , it affects the ODU unlike MTN fiber X which is a wired internet connection .

The good thing is; the downtime happens sometimes once or twice a month , but aside that the package has been good value for money . It’s not bad at all for a month unlimited internet access @ 25k.

Exactly and there will be lot of falling out
You can encourage me to vote someone that's making me hungry or suffering because of your own interest

Gbam!

That’s why I don’t see the need for people crashing out on social media because these celebrities Dey hustle for wetin dem go see chop from politicians .

The decision to vote for your preferred candidate still lies with you the ordinary citizen .

izzou:
That's okay.

From the video, I can see 14 people or so. That's 14 votes on total.

Exactly .

In the real sense of things , I don’t think any reasonable person who is above the age 18 will say I am voting for a particular candidate because my favorite actor or actress said I should vote for him.

If you are already an adult who has responsibilities and you believe the ruling government is not doing enough to make your life better , you would be foolish to say you will reelect the ruling party because of the influence of your favorite celebrity

Al-Jazeera started off the war on Iran's side till Qatar got attacked, now they are cheering for US-Israel


https://www.aljazeera.com/opinions/2026/3/16/the-us-israeli-strategy-against-iran-is-working-here-is-why

This part caught my attention in the article:

The figures drawn from US and Iranian military statements differ in detail but converge on the trajectory. Hundreds of Iranian missile launchers have been rendered inoperable. According to some reports, 80 percent of Iran’s capacity to strike Israel has been eliminated.

Iran’s naval assets, fast-attack craft, midget submarines and mine-laying capabilities are being liquidated. Its air defences have been suppressed to the point at which the US is now flying nonstealth B-1 bombers over Iranian airspace, a decision that signals near-total confidence in air dominance.

And then this part:

The second phase, now under way, targets Iran’s defence industrial base: missile production facilities, dual-use research centres and the underground complexes where remaining stockpiles are stored. This is not aimless bombing. It is a methodical campaign to ensure that what has been destroyed cannot be rebuilt.

Iran now faces a strategic dilemma that tightens every day. If it fires its remaining missiles, it exposes launchers that are promptly destroyed. If it conserves them, it forfeits the ability to impose costs of the war. Missile and drone launch data suggest Iran is rationing its remaining capacity for politically timed salvoes rather than sustaining operational tempo.

The author is literally saying as much as IRGC and NRGC may try so much to prove the war is tilting in favor the Persian regime, the reality is quite different. The US/Israeli forces operate unhindred within Iranian territory degrading their military capability and their future ability to project as a regional military heavyweight.

They want to render Iran a paper tiger by the time the war ends and that the regime will spend years trying to rebuild its military infrastructure such that they won't have luxury of time to bother both friends and foes within the region.

Bruno is a king

Now where's the Odegaard they once compared to him?

Lmao.

Na this season wey Odegaard hardly play due to injury you decide to compare him with Bruno ? Do you even watch EPL games at all or you just go to sites to pick stats , watch replays , read complete sports and then come online to start making absurd submissions on players you didn't watch play ?

Odegaard hardly played this season due to injuries. He has missed a total of 20 matches and counting due to Shoulder injury, knee injury, muscle injury and knock issues this season. If you follow the EPL and other competitions featuring Arsenal you would've known this.

Na wa for you o Popi.

You are right bro, at some point we all had doubts because things didn't work out well in our favour.

The trauma of coming second best 3 seasons counting is not easy at all.

I hope the trophy finally comes home this season and it will unite all fans across different divisive lines.

At a point TH14 also doubt our title ambitions become of some results


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJmVAj0oqJg?si=p5q1oSJg1164ZPyb

Even u and Roland17 doubted our title ambitions because you thought Arteta will bottle it as usual

But on a serious note, we need to give big kudos to the team for finding a reason to keep pushing and not let the negativity from the media to affect them. It is not easy at all. I mean at some point they were doing everything to either win or draw and then the media will turn back to criticize how they are able to get results. No appreciation or recognition of the sacrifice they made, just criticism.

As of Today we've played about 46 games in the 2025/2026 season and we've only lost 3 games which is the loss vs Loserpool, Man Utd and Aston Villa. The team has really come a very long way.

Our players and the coaching crew deserve their flowers honestly. Sometimes I feel we've been too hard on them, but then I understand that the pains of the past 20 something years has really gotten to the fans.

Omo! When we win this league, rival fans go see shege for this free internet o because even me , my friends on my whatsapp timeline done dey collect on a steady. Creativity in trolling full Arsenal fans hand, na make we just win this league first make rival fans see us in full beast mode

Receive,give,take,open,receive,give,take,open. To play DM no be rocket science once you have your good first touch and more adventurous with your passes.

Now what makes a good DM? A simple good first touch and a working brain.

Palmer has a good first touch and can be coached on what to do when you have the ball.

😂😂😂

Thank you for confirming what everybody already thinks about your football knowledge .

swiz123:
Those guys are shocking. Imagine saying things like “united didn’t really perfom well in this game”…. Without pointing out what exactly made them play poorly. None of them can give any form of tactical insight into any game.

None of them has ever dissected the way any of the top teams play that gives them an edge over others or makes them weaker against others. Many Nigerians are just dull and accept the barest of minimum.

I don’t really think Nigerians are dull or accept barest minimum, rather I think it’s about making do with what is available to us.

princeabdul:
palmer doesn't have the range function as any of these

Perhaps there’s something Popi sees which we are overlooking . So, maybe if he tells us we will reason along with him .

If you know the terms and conditions wey the Americans put on Gulf Arab countries.. U go know say Naija own na small thing.

All of us dey here when IDF bombed Qatar. Qatar have American patriot air defense/THAAD system, none of dem was activated because it the Americans who operate them.

If you think that giving away 30-40% of oil revenue is simply because we don't plan for the future or don't have visionary leadership. That's your opinion. Our people talk say that;

You are conflating two different issues .

Joint Venture agreements are normal commercial agreements.

If tomorrow comes and NNPC wants to start running the show from A to Z after the expiration of the current agreements they have with the different IOCs, nothing stops them from doing so.

swiz123:
Does Nigeria have any football analyst at all? Why are all these TikTok content creators representing Nigeria as analyst? Kombo, Stones, Adika barely know the basics of football and just create content, Omoo.

Useless Stones is using long pass and chance create to prove that Bruno is a better CM than Pedri.

I guess most of our retired Players are too rich to be farming podcast/social media money through tactical analysis of games. That is why you see all those hustlers like Kombo, Adika and co filling the void with their scatter gun analysis of games.

popizaino:
Some of you are better off reading about transfer news,calculating players' wages,net worth,girlfriends,lifestyle,cuisine,dressing room matters etc.

Nothing should concern you about football tactics and on-pitch actions.

I don't know how asking Cole Palmer to play a sitting DM is weird? Do you even know Andrea pirlo started off as an attacking midfielder?

Even Xavi played at the base of the midfield sometimes.

Ok...it is not a weird thing to see James in the midfield but it weird to ask an attacker midfielder to drop to the base of the midfield.

I will not even give you reasons as to why i came up with that,if you think it's a weird take,then so be it.

This is what happens when you cannot challenge yourself on what you know.

With what you've watched in Palmer's game from his time at city and since he moved to Chelsea, what do you see in his game that suggest he can function as Pirlo or Xavi for any team in the future?

Let's agree we all no know ball; please educate us. Let's see through what informed your suggestion.

On August 29, 2025, a sum of N5.578 million was paid into his personal account with the description, “August 2025 Salary Ajaokuta Steel Company.”

AbdulSalam was appointed by President Bola Tinubu in April 2025, according to publicly available records and a statement issued the same month by presidential spokesperson Bayo Onanuga.

Despite its non-functionality, the Nigerian government proposed spending N6.04 billion on personnel costs for workers of the company in the 2026 budget estimates

The total allocation for the company in the budget stands at N6.69 billion for the year. Of this amount, N6.04 billion is earmarked for personnel costs

Nigeria has a serious spending and deliberate wastefulness problem.

Ajaokuta Steel Mill has not worked since God knows when, yet we are told the person heading the Moribund steel mill takes home over N5m as monthly salary.

Now FG has budgeted N6.69 billion for the Steel mill in 2026 budget and about N6.04 billion of it will be used to pay salaries of staff of an organization that produces nothing.

They are literally fettering away funds that should be put to productive use in other sectors of the economy while the assets of the steel mill continue to depreciate in value.

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
I agree. Those radio guest/analyst dey very very correct. But at the bolded where is where I disagree with him, him thinking that after 65years that we don't have the technical capability or funds to buy those equipments and do the exploration/drilling by ourselves.

I dey talk am since but una go think say na because I hate the West. That thing is a colonial agreement imposed on us. It will continue to be like that. Any day any government say we don get plenty petrol-chemical engineers, that will can handle it by ourselves. Dem go remind us that our government does not respect fundamental human rights, that election is not free and fair thus justifying the Maduro treatment on the government. If the government challenge dem, dem go put bounty on dem, tag dem as terrorists.

As bad Buhari was, the economy was far better under him.

This actually has nothing to do with anything being imposed on us by any western government. These are just purely commercial agreeements.

Oil exploration is capital intensive; one of the advantages of JV agreements is that it allows for costs to be shared between NNPC and the JV operator like Shell, Chevron, etc.

Maybe because I used the example of Russia , you think it's our friendliness with the West that made us have the JV agreements "imposed" on us. Not so at all. Countries like Saudi Arabia has Aramco , The Qataris have their own government owned oil companies who do exploration , production, refining and sale of crude by themselves without having JV agreement with any western owned country despite being friendly to the West.

The thing is, Nigeria has been used to not planning for the future and always living in the now. We've not really been blessed with nationalists and visionaries as leaders. If not, we should have built capacity over the years and there's nothing any western or eastern nation would do to us if we decide to take charge of our own oil and gas by ourselves. We would just be selling to any willing buyer and making the most from our oil and gas deals without having anything leak to any foreign private owned company.

This is not about geopolitics or pro/anti-west agenda; it's just a pointer to our failure as a country.

This is the right time for us to cash out via oil revenue/sale. Russia is making almost 150m dollar per day in oil/gas revenue because of this war. Why is our own different?

I listened to a radio program this morning and their analyst gave some pointers as to why we are not making a kill with oil/gas revenue this period.

All the oil exploration/drilling we do in Nigeria is not done by the Nigerian government; they are all done by Joint Venture. These JV agreement are as a result of Nigeria not having the equipment/expertise/capacity to drill oil by ourselves 65 years after independence. We rely on these JV agreement that lets Multinationals like Exxon Mobil, Shell,Total, Chevron, etc to drill the crude and then get as much as 30% to 40% of proceeds from the drilled crude.

So when an IOC like Shell drills a well, pumps crude out and the crude gets sold, they may get as much as 30% of the revenue depending on the terms of the JV agreement between Shell and NNPC.

When we now factor-in those forward contracts Buhari signed off during his tenure (Yes, the ones he signed off on that allowed him get loans from foreign institutions and pledged proceeds of crude that is yet to be drilled as repayment method), then you know it's almost impossible for us to experience any significant rise in oil revenue. People don't know the level of damage Buhari's administration did to this country within 8 years.

On the other hand, countries like Russia have a government owned oil company that drills Russian oil solely for the full benefit of the country. I think Rosneft is their official government's oil company and Gazprom is the one for gas. These companies are what our own NNPC should be (Not having to defer to IOCs like Shell, Chevron, etc for exploration and production of oil and gas via JV ), but sadly that is not the case.

A lot of things no just dey right for this country. Unfortunately, even people who know just gloss over it and resign to fate.

Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) said the incident happened, but the Police is saying it did not

But why is Nigeria Police force like this ? What sort messed up mentality do they have that always want to make them deny the obvious?

So the the CP is saying no bandit was arrested, but he is confirming they arrested kidnap Logistics Suppliers. Why do they care so much about labels/names instead of crime bursting which should be their main focus?
