Why does it appear difficult to African governments to build an humane environment for its citizenry. I kept an air of wondering astonishment and yet can't comprehend.

Abfinest007:
these our politicians will just be selecting all the fine girls n leaving d ugly one to dominate d street

This is why they keep stealing.

There is corruption in NRC come Ijoko and see ticketers sitting down doing nothing while only one of them is selling ticket to thousand of passengers in the hope that wen train take off people will quickly run into the coaches without ticket and the checkers will collect Money inside the coaches without ticket and they will share the money at the end of the day

Can't the stations be well built with lobby for ticket selling. The lobby will have Cubicles

$70million

They've started teaching her seductive dressing. What is the correlation between nudity and success

Every Nigerian lies about Age.

Lie. I am using my real age

You people should get a job. Audu Ogbe wasn't mocked neither is he wrong. Bunch of idiots looking for cheap scores.
Watch the full video of his presentation and get the drift. Only empty heads will mock as they are simply empty and can't comprehend nor offer anything.

mushystuff:
Even the amount for the official 3-week waiting period has been inflated beyond the statutory amount. On their site it's 17k but they charge 28k for d same period of time or 35-37k to pick up within one week

Will they charge more if everyone pays online? I doubt even if it will take eternity but no how you won't pay more if you meet with an official directly.

It is a product of the society. Everyone should learn to wait. If they say 3 weeks wait but some groups seeing themselves having some useless change will always be the ones to encourage corruption.

Quite ridiculous a being

OmoManU:
May God bless you. The fact that majority does something does not make it a right thing. This generation has actually lost it all areas of human endeavor

Is it in the Nigerian law that anyone putting on a tatoo or dreadlock is a criminal. NPF should do policing that they are enacted for and not to be terrorising the neighbourhood. You don't arrest someone based on what is perceived right or wrong but on the basis of criminality and unlawful acts.

OmoManU:
What is bad is bad tattoo is not good simple. I'm not in support of the police actions those ones they are idiots but you must say the facts when the facts meant to be said. No responsible human being will put on tattoo especially in the open parts of his body it's disgusting.

No responsible human will smoke cigarette. So which means all smokers are criminals.

When technical knowhow is lacked, shortcuts are sought for. Since police lack the ability to conduct professional investigation and forensic examinations they start to assume.

This sad incidence is months old and has been posted on Nairaland before. Recycling

PHIPEX:
This is what we expect to be hearing, at least a good news to dilute bad political news everywhere in the country.

This airline came from nowhere and took over, I wish I could learn from it's business acumen. The airline proved everything about us must not be tokumbo.

Idea+Money+Strategy

leofab:
is that your reason ? Too many illitrate clusters in a country.. how do we grow?

You are dumb. Reason for what. I gave an advice. You are asking if that is a reason. Obviously an illiterate will always assume everyone is. The same way a thief does.

Cletus77:
Don't tell me that you're ignorant about the courts judgement, where all the lies of the presidency was exposed

What is my business with that. Is that what will bring improved standard of living for the Nigerian masses. Most Nigeria commons lives abjectly and this should be our concern not some squabbles.

Cletus77:
Tell me one reason why the CJN should not be reinstated? a very good reason.

Canvass for a better living standard for Nigerians and not one rich man somewhere that is also part of our problem in the leadership helms

News carrier association with their dumb skull everywhere.

Ejimagifty:
They should be deported and sent to live in the zoo

Let them serve their jail time there. If possible life imprisonment.

mhiztaNexy:
i hate it when ppl don't think before posting. U never knw how hard it is till it hits you. Careful with your words if you really don't have anything to offer. Rip to the soul lost.

People also die on smooth roads. Should we also blame the government for smooth roads. I have driven hours on most Nigerian highways. I anticipate that there will be a pot hole ahead, I don't overtake on hills, bends, obscured paths to say. When drivers are careful around potholes they can't have accident. I dn't speed on unfamiliar roads. Even USA has potholes.
RIP to the dead.

planetx:
Totally untrue that it is illegal to wear camo in the US, it is sold openly in stores and anyone can wear it without harassment. The law you are quoting says US military attire and insignia which is different from camo worn for fashion purposes.

Noted

Excuzeme:
Guys need to DEFINE what a MILITARY ATTIRE IS.....before quoting USA and other countries.

For example, wearing a Nike Camo-Sneakers CANNOT and DOES NOT make you look like or become a military personnel, in the USA or in any sane country.
Most people dont even know what is "significant" in claiming to be a military personnel?
it is the Special belt, the Pips, the Cap with the Insignia, the military Boots, the design of the Camo-uniform, e.t.c that forms the "military Attire"

We need to educate the military rank-and-file and the populace in general, on how to identify or "mis-identify" a person who claims to be military!
The current situation where soldiers just brutalize a civilian because he wears a Camo-TShirt or Camo-Sneakers or even a Camo-shorts is borne out of COWARDICE and l say this with all sense of responsibility. Why brutalize someone that is not a danger to you?

If you say you are trying to prevent Boko Haram members wearing military attire so they can impersonate soldiers, then we have to re-train our soldiers on the public, on how to identify a soldier.
If a Boko Haram member wears say a Camo-sneakers and claim to be a "Captain in the military", will any "informed person" or Soldier take him seriously or believe him?
What l am saying is that it takes more than wearing a Camo-TShirt or a Camo-Knickers or Camo-Sneakers, to claim to be a military personnel.
All Civilians know this, Soldiers know this but the need to BRUTALIZE unarmed civilians, by some COWARDS in the military (who hide under military uniforms) is what feeds all these hullaballoo that we are seeing.
If you want to impersonate a Soldier, you need to wear A MILITARY ATTIRE.
An ATTIRE (as stated in the statutes of most countries we quote), is different from an ARTICLE.
A military ATTIRE consists of the Camo-Uniforms, the special belt, the Pips, the Cap with the Insignia, the military Boots, e.t.c. You have to wear all or more than one of these items TOGETHER, for it to make an ATTIRE.

There are obvious situations where one can deduce immediately, that the wearer of a Camo is not trying to impersonate a Soldier
(I have seen stupid Soldier trying to challenge a 10yr old cousin of mine for wearing Camo-shirt knickers ONLY that l bought for him! I asked him if it made sense to him, that the 10yr old Boy was trying to IMPERSONATE to be a military personnel or whether he has 10yr old boys of his age, in his regiment? He then asked if he may "know me" and l told him to show me his "Pass" before l can answer any question from him, being that we were in a public place at that time? Soldier got the drift, gave me full compliments and l discharged him with a warning to "use his sense and not harass civilians unnecessarily".

The Solution to the problem is EDUCATION.
Civilians must be told never to wear military ATTIRE......... as in "Attire".

Soldiers must be educated (l said "Soldiers", not "Officers" because Officers know this already) on what constitutes a "military ATTIRE" as opposed to just wearing a camo-ARTICLE......which is not an attire and does not constitute wearing a military attire with the intent of IMPERSONATION.
If you wear a Camo in the US or other Western countries and you dont "add" other paraphernalia of the military that makes it "A Military ATTIRE", then you have not broken any law. That is the American Soldiers and authorities using their brain because they know that you cant impersonate the military by just wearing a Camo-Sneakers or t-Shirt.

Finally, Soldiers, (especially the cowards among them who take pride in brutalizing unarmed civilians) must be disciplined by the MP, anytime a case of civilians brutality is established against them. they must be educated to know that the military itself, cannot survive without the "love and Support" of the civilian population!
One of the reasons we are still failing in the fight against Boko haram is because the civilian population does not TRUST and SUPPORT the Soldiers in the field. How can someone you brutalize for the flimsiest excuse, trust and support you?
The "Power and Authority" of a Soldier does not lie the the harassment and brutalization of civilians (that is not what Soldiers are trained to do!) but in the protection and care of such civilians, even when they err, you can correct them with respect because "Respect begets Respect"

God bless the Nigerian military!

Well said

Mustsucceed:
This lady was never a Muslim .she is just seeking for attention and easy cash from christian organizations
Nigerians are so gullible ..she is doing this for attention she knows social media ..Do you actually trust one who keeps changing religions ? Sjd never changed religion she just said so for public affection and materials

So if you are not a muslim then you are a christian. Quite interesting.

izzou:
And what is the punishment for wearing it according to the law?

Torture? Public humiliation? Flogging and injuries?

Have small sense Abeg.

You are very stupid for telling me to have sense. Did you see anything like supporting the act in my comment. Brainless

Respect the laws of your country. It is illegal to wear such in Nigeria.

I'm at many comments here. Wearing a military attire is illegal in most places including the USA. I don't support the beating, he should have been arrested instead

Unlimitk:

This guy right here is so rich,he can buy some ppl villages and generations

My ppl emptry barrels make the loudest noise

And yet his kinsmen over 90% are poor. That makes him poor

dominique:
Why on earth would he continuously sell on credit because his clients are celebs? He ought to know that Nigerians are terrible debtors always looking for whom to take advantage of, celebs included. You need to be extremely shrewd and rigid when doing business with Nigerians else they'll send you back to your village.

I tire o. He caused his predicament. He forgot that you only give credit to credit worthy customers that are truly worthy and not some fake social statuspreneurs

adisabarber:
Take them to court joor

Exactly, if he has his records and proof be should take them to court. They will pay for both his legal fees and what they are owing
