only politics nigeria is carrying this story. however i know how it goes. dangote's corporate dept likely has engaged the big newspapers and bloggers.

quite simply dangote has to project an image of strength to his creditors and future partners if he wants to secure funding that will not tie him by the blokos .

It is happening. The north has been lurching from one crisis to another all due to a large population of idle youths.

It was coedine and coke
Then it was islamist terrorism
Now it is banditry

These problems are going to be with them for generations because the giant numbers of impoverished youths are no longer content with stipend and begging.

They are already in trouble. And they know it. For the last 15 years there has been a mass exodus of middle class northerners to lagos.

It is not a ticking time bomb, it is a fire that is burning

And from where I stand it will continue as they are already breeding the next generations that will not be content to beg for alms and wait on Al Jannah


Like BlueRayDick said, Northern leaders collectively fked the masses. Awolowo pushed for ube
Tafawa balewa was more concerned with charity for the poor rather than empowerment. He could have also set up ube. the mentality continues to this day.

It is almost as if they see a society with millions of poor people who depend on the government for support via stipends as a good thing.

We all saw how Buharis admin was happy doling out n5000 per month as stipend

[b]I am not seeing the issue in this case, the person of interest is south african by birth.[/b]She can decide to cut connection with her parents
These sa people are just notoriously xenophobic

iamoyindamola:
It will never happen not now not ever, they were used as election tool and they believed they were dumped
These people will use Islam as excuse for their large numbers
Their government encourage them, this is why they have mass wedding annually
A poor and uneducated man can marry up to 4 and see nothing wrong with it they will hope on insha'Allah and one Alhaji for urgent 2k if the man is fortunate to have beautiful daughters, Alhaji will take some and keep the undeveloped ones for his sons
But if he have boys they turn almajiri and fend for themselves

I don't want to say that place is doom but it's and it's been coming

Theflint1:
They're saying the girls mum isn't South African, but a Nigerian woman that stole the identity of a South African woman...her dad is def Igbo sha, based off the video of her folks celebrating with her.

Another angle is shouldn't the girl be eligible for citizenship by naturalization, and the South African government simply regularize her status instead of allowing this drama over who's already entitled to citizenship.

Ibime:
The papa fit be Igbo man with Yoruba man papers. Anoda angu

Ibime:
Chidinma Adetshina itself is a funny name

How did a Yoruba man married to a South African woman name his daughter Chidinma

The maths is not adding up. The mama fit be Igbo woman wey thief South African identity because what's the reason for the name Chidinma?

Roland17:
I don’t think Arteta is prioritizing a traditional CF, I don’t think he believes it would work for his tactics and style of play. From what we have seen thus far, Arteta likes a fluid interchangeable front 3 with a lot of movement. Personally, I would like to see a CF so we can have options when teams sit deep and cloud the box.

Who send these players to dey score useless goals up and down?

Abeg we need striker o make all of you dey miss net.

Is NNPC not Nigeria thing?. All of a sudden NNPC said their strategic interest doesn't align with Dangote. They reduced their stake like you just agreed with Ib.ime. Is this Nigeria supporting it own?

iamoyindamola:
Even Raumdeuter still have his ogbomosho accent intact after all these years
Anyone that tries to change it will get a bullet

Ibime:
Everyone with perception knew loans are due especially after NNPC pulled their funding, hence Baba is trying to crank the refinery ahead of time to show some cash flows so he can refinance

According to Fitch Ratings, Dangote Group plans to divest 12.75% stake in Dangote Petroleum Refinery over liquidity concerns. In a statement on Monday, Fitch said Dangote Group plans to use the proceeds from the stake sold to service a sizable syndicated loan that matures on August 31, 2024.

Roland17:
This is why I said, it is still too early to make conclusions about APC and the North. I mean, look at the timing of his reinstatement and apology, do you think it is a coincidence?

If the presidential election was next year, shebi Ndume will go to the North and campaign for APC. Dangote that was making noise throughout, where is his voice today?

The day Southern Nigeria go get sense, na that day I go get hope say Naija go better.

Na here we dey.

Jodera:
Fair points bro.

I agree with you about preferring this current model over the Wenger own cos we don too suffer for the previous one.

But I just hope we can improve on the ways we can sell our fringe players as well as academy too. That's two things Arsenal needs to work on sincerely

Jodera:
I swear, I'm open to selling him currently. His African age don finally dey show. Him don try for us even though we no too enjoy am as we would have loved

Theflint1:
It's practically impossible to develop accent as an adult, the vocal chords are fully formed by then...those 1 month accent people na acting, but they say having the oynbo accent helps you not stick out like a sore thumb which in turn helps with upward mobility.

Theflint1:
Well for some reason APC always seems to get jittery whenever Atiku weighs in on issues, that's enough to take the man seriously, and I'm sure he'd deal with Wike and his gang in due time

Ah

Tinubu. The gift that keeps giving😁

https://x.com/chiditweets042/status/1820703218914971666?t=opbmXXvqRYQSgLbqL_pf7A&s=19[/quote]My own concern about this video be say : Tinubu spent years studying and living in America and did not develop accent, but all those newly japa crew on IG & TikTok no go allow person rest with UK and Canada accent within 1 month of relocating 🤦‍♂️

liveLongNprospa:
Lmao
If you think I'll be excited because of political talk of atiku (Mr deleted tweet) then I'd be surprised.

I am excited at the drama from SW APC. It is fun watching these guys flip flop.
Of course I will highlight the moves made.

When tinubu makes his own moves, we will also discuss it too.
You wey dey join in the conversation, should I tag you as excited? 😁

raumdeuter:
The Atiku that has been silent when the Northern twitter are sending threats all over
The same Atiku that recalled his tweet condemning murder is now the light

Atiku knows what he is doing, Hope you know what you are doing too

raumdeuter:
One thing Kwankwanso has is the devout and religious followership in Kano. He won the governorship there in 2023, He actually won in 2019 too but Ganduje did magic for him in the runoff

As long as Kwankwanso contests for presidency, those almost 1m anti APC votes will still go to him instead of Atiku, possibly more since his boy is governor

Theflint1:
E aide wey give am that tip deserve bonus this month, it put APCs hate speech arm on the defensive. They go rest small.

liveLongNprospa:
When the man highlighted that #igbomustgo post was when I clicked baba was in the driving seat.

Make e dey clear pathway for us🙏

Shegzdave:
I come Dey wonder if na same Pepe Abi na another one

Jodera:
Lol, well, we have different opinions about Pepe. Not bad tho cos your points are valid.

But you raised something about us not selling Pepe and that's thing I'm certainly worried about. Personally, I think we're not good at selling/marketing players. See Nketiah for example, Man have been in the team for over 3 seasons. He has epl experience and play in one of the top clubs in epl. In some certain situations, he's been our starting striker and he hardiy have injury yet even with all these advantages, we are struggling to even sell him for £30m. To me I find it so concerning.

If he's in somewhere like Chelsea now, I'm certain they would have sold him for like 50m, yet we can't even get 30 for him. Imagine Omorodion going for £35m and Alvarez going for £85m but us, na beg we dey beg Marseille or anyone interested to collect just 30m. Nelson is another concerning care. Ramsdale who's in form and we're looking to sell, yet no club is even looking his way presently.

What do you think about this matter?

Jodera:
🚨According to Charles Watts, we have some concerns about Thomas Partey's fitness after Arsenal's three friendly matches in the US.!?

🔸️Normally, Thomas Partey would need a month of regular play to be able to reach his best form.

🔸️However, after three friendly matches, the Ghanaian midfielder's current situation compared to the end of last season has not shown any clear improvement in terms of fitness.

🔸️Thomas Partey still seems to be unable to return to his best form because in some situations, Partey could not retreat in time to participate in defense and left a huge gap behind him.

🔸️In the match against Liverpool, coach Mikel Arteta also expressed his dissatisfaction a few times when Thomas Partey lost the ball too easily, causing Arsenal to receive dangerous counter-attacks from the opponent.

🔸️We hope Thomas Partey will improve this problem soon because he will almost certainly continue to be with Arsenal this upcoming season...! 💪

Your thoughts...


Old age don dey beckon on Partey.
