Sportsweb: To me Davido's team & fans didn't do half of what Wizkid & his fans did after his 3 Grammy loss last year. Even Grammy had to lock their comments section after making any post. Angelina Kidjo wasn't left out too
Did Wizkid fans ask other Nigerian artistes to stop submitting their work to Grammy as a form of boycott/protest?
nihilistjnr: I think this actually shows just how far Burna and Wizxy have gone in this game.
Imo Burna is inow ndubitably and undisputedly at the top of the food chain in this Afrobeats game, although an argument might be made that he has surpassed/doesn't do(delete one as necessary) Afrobeats.
Case in point, Burna was actually competing with Drake(!) and J.Cole(!) In one category this year. Person wey pass you, pass you. Who too get, too get.
As good an Alvum as Timeless was, and it was a dope album, i don't think it was necessarily made as a crossover album. If you love afrobeats, you'll love it. If you don't, then meh.
Whereas Burna boy makes music with serious crossover appeal. Twice as tall was the equivalent of light skin nigga with blond highlights in his dreadlocks. He's black, but the whites can recognise something familiar about him.
You only have to look at the structure of 'Las Las' to realise where Davido continues to fall short.
The problem now is instead of Davido and his fans taking it in good faith and go back to the drawing board; some of them online have bee calling for Grammy's boycott from all afrobeat artistes.
There's this Sope guy that has been wailing since daybreak calling naija artistes to stop submitting their work.
I believe Davido and his fans invested so much emotions in those 3 nominations and that's why they've found it hard to accept the outcome. He should go back to the studio to cook and avoid all those Iskaba, keke napep rhymes. Next year is another year.
Like u rightly said, after the loss Burna had to go back and became intentional with his music and gave it crossover appeal. I believe same can work for Davido
Ballzproblem2: the problem is,he might not get that chance again
I believe that is the fear of his fans; they fear he might not drop a body of work that would do better than Timeless so they want him to win it with Timeless now
His fans have been going bananas all over social media like say na only him no win.
They should learn from Burnaboy ; he should go back to the drawing board this year and make more songs hoping he will get nominated and eventually win next year . E no pass like that.
iamoyindamola: Jamie carragher on arteta and odegaard celebration You have won just walk down the tunnel Haters on X: Arsenal celebrating like they have won the league
Ian Wright on the Arsenal celebrations after the full-time whistle:
“The negativity towards Arsenal’s celebrations, what have we done wrong? Stuart, the photographer, is a life long Gunner, it’s an opportunity for a memory, why’s everyone trying to kill the joy? Don’t kill the joy.
“As soon as Arsenal do anything, everyone piles on like Arsenal aren’t allowed any joy. Don’t let them spoil it. My manager, keep celebrating with passion like you do.
“Just leave us alone man.”
These assholes can't even hide the hate again like wrighty said they should leave us the fvck alone
They are all crazzy…. No be dem go dictate to us how we go celebrate our win .
Roland17: I am done with his nonsense. I don’t care if he scores a hatrick, this is rubbish. He has not raised the quality of the team when he is playing, if anything we are worse.
I’ve never seen a player playing rubbish consistently before. He just annoys my soul
iamoyindamola: Blueraydick all queen's men S3 is still in on weekly We have to wait till they finish, downloading bit by bit is tiring They are currently in ep13
Just help me upload the 13 episodes like that . Where dem finish season 2 really had me on suspense
I saw this and said...isn't this what my sentiment have been all along?
What tinubu is doing is simply perishing the poor thinking he is growing one useless economy. You wants to generate more revenues from the pockets of the already impoverished masses...and the money is still end up looted. Smh.
Anybody who see how APC supporters were shouting Tinubu is a strategist during the campaign will think he’s coming to do something other than increase taxation and further impoverish the poor.
Shebi it’s part of these money that will be made from increase in taxation that people like Betta Edu are already diverting to third party accounts where it will be misappropriated .
OkpaNsukkaisBae: Hamas/Palestine also get huge funds from UNRWA so therefore, UNITED NATIONS attacked ISrael. No state is an island, directly or indirectly it must relate with others. If a state is getting funds/aids from friendly states or international bodies around the world... it is not illegal, not against international law.
Evidence abounds everywhere on the open internet of how Iran funds Hamas’ terror activities.
It’s funny u are one person that believes the west is fighting a proxy war against Russia in Ukraine but u don’t believe Iran is fighting a Proxy war with their funding of terrorist groups like Hamas , Hezbollah, Houthi’s etc .
The way I dey fear u ehn….. u sure say if u come by some huge amount of money u will not use it to fund a terrorist organization and call it fancy name like granting aids to friendly states/organizations/bodies ?
GloriousGbola: Actually I don't think tax is the problem. I think the STEALING OF TAX is.
Local govt regularly shake people down. Sometimes legally, sometimes illegally. All that money is going to their pockets. Or at least most of it is. Local govt is already collecting money from every trader in the market or along the road.
What Tinubu needs to do is fix the system so we can bypass all the fking touts in the system. Of course the touts will do their best to fk it up.
Any system where you are paying someone cash, you know the money is already gone.
It’s called multiple taxation. There are so many multiple taxation in this country which the government tacitly supports .
The government needs to think outside of just increasing taxes. If I move money from my union bank to my Access bank accounts , my access bank account will get debited N50 stamp duty for receiving money . Why ? Is that done anywhere ? Why must I pay tax for receiving money that has earlier been taxed ? If I buy anything from the remaining funds I will still pay 7.5% VAT. If I use a public transport out of the money , I will pay tax via a higher fare due to the owomida agbero collects from transport owners . The government has increased import duties recently so it makes it difficult for me to import materials and start producing goods for exportation .
If these and more continues , no amount of Tinubu blocking stealing of tax will make the nation great . That is even if he can succeed in blocking stealing of tax with someone like Akapabio as senate president , someone like Ganduje the chairman of his party , someone like Atiku Bagudu his minister for budget and planning . 🤦♂️
You can't build an economy by removing subsidies for the poor and raising taxes and interest rates at the same time. Taxes do not grow the economy---production does. The poor must not perish for a nation to develop! Unless you are playing someone's script!!!
This video was forwarded on almost all the groups I’m a member of on WhatsApp throughout yesterday.
Tinubu has been widening the tax net and removing every available subsidy in sight thereby putting more pressure on the individuals and corporate entities disposable income.
If what the man said in the video is anything to go by, I wonder where the development and prosperity promised by Tinubu will come from . This one is not a matter of elo fokan bale. We need to talk practicality here .
raumdeuter: I work in Texas and used that law. It's like that in most places.
Company can just decide your job is not making enough profit for them or not adding value. You lose the job instantly
In most employment contracts in Nigeria , it is usually stated that the company has the right to terminate the employee’s appointment without incurring any liability for compensation or damages if the employee is found to be guilty of misconduct , dishonesty, embezzlement , fraud,dereliction of duty , if u divulge company’s trading secret and accept monetary gratification from outsider.
Anyting aside this , the company will have to pay u compensation if they terminate ur employment at will.
That’s why when companies do mass retrenchment or individual sacking , they usually pay compensation. If the job get union , the union can contest the compensation package by either shutting down the company’s business activities or heading to the courts .
As regards the job advert, initially I didn’t know the job was a PA job because I was trying to figure out what MT virtual assistant meant . Most PA jobs are like that sha , I don see CEO wey dey office around 10pm in Ikoyi and his PA’s dey with am. I just dey wonder if those guys have their own lives to live at all
The lady in this video was misdiagnosed of breast cancer , she had undergone sessions of chemotherapy and had her breast cut off only for them to confirm she didn’t had cancer in the first place .
Na why I talk say those doctors couldve misdiagnosed Sadiq and never really bothered about reconfirming whether their initial diagnosis was wrong
