Burna boy moved from frying pan to fire. I rather be an atheist than convert to islam

@ ops. U were not smart enough. If u want to catch woman u catch her for hand not for leg. U should have let her go the hotel then let her know that u saw her and catch her red handed and divorce the LovePeddler u married. A cheating wife is a time bomb. I can tolerate any woman but not a cheating wife because if she no kill u she go kill the other concubine. If i were u i go just leave the marriage because u no dey safe. Better let ur family know before dey go kill u for midnight

Slot is good slot is Good and he cant even defend the titke. Something Guardiola did and even four times agaunst coach like Klopp. If Guardiola no dey premeurship klopp for get atkeast 4 premiership

Voltron and there is this cartoon they show on cadbury breakfast telivusion every saturday morning by 7am. Those cartoon were the best. They later stopped it. Am talking about 1994 to 1997. God bless Cadbury for making my childhood fun

I wish na yarimo mum or sister or reno monkey parents na him dey kidnapped so they can know the evil in sypporting bad goverment by lying for this bad goverment. Nigeria is not safe for even the poor. May God save this sister.

Checking Fifa Site on latest world cup qualification they said there is an evidence of money induced bribery which was foundout when a text message of one big south african fa executive was found in Rwanda's goal keeppers phone. As a result Nigeria will qualify ahead of south african. See how God works!

Robertocarlos19:
Oga go and rest it is over finito.

I just dey laugh. I knew nigeria wont qualify when they failed to beat south africa. Nonsense and ingredient. Last minute preparation. Abeg make serious country go world cup no be by gra gra. Any serious country will go to world cup. Nigeria super eagles never serious

See as naija dey give themselves hope when there is none. Begging Rwanda to win or draw South Africa. After messing up they will start to beg God to help them. It will take a huge miracle ti beat Benin even if south africa mess up. What are we even doing in the world cup because we cany pass the group stage self. Atleast to save us from unnnecessary squardering in the name of supporting the eagles

The way nigerians are wise i believe it shouod be studied in psychology. Apc met dollars at 181 and took it to 1450 in space of 10 years. Tinubu met it at 700 and doubled it. A feat that no ptesident have achieved since independence and this is the rubbish that someone posted. The same people are shouting tinubu till 2031. When una vote useless people finish una go begin disturb una friends and family abroad say nigeria no good. No be una dey vote them after using tribalism and one cup of rice sell una vote with 5000naira. Make una continue now.

What if she didn't contribute to it? Or they deduct it automatically? Does this has to do with money one receives into their account from organizations? How one do more hours without being caught? Is freelancing online (e.g., Upwork) a problem?

Its very easy. Everyone has a paycheck which NI and tax is deducted. Then maybe pension too but it is not mandatory for pension. After the deduction is ur payable income. They will always see it except the person give u cash. Even if someone dash u money to ur account and they ask for your statement. They will ask u the source of the miney

They will at Glasgow my brother.i was fined for standing wit a can of beer by building entrance door.how do u expect me to like that kind place

My guy calm down with the lies. People drink beer on the street and even in the bus. Maybe u throw can on the floor but no police will fine u for holding can of beer in ur hand. Haba take am easy. Even for city centre people dey drink dey go.

I like am as we no go thr world cup. Bunch of losers with Tinubu as president.

EU still not wise. I think they are the most foolish continent as it stands today.

They seems not to know that they are pawns in the game.

When I saw the smile on Xi, Putin and Modi at the recent meeting, I knew they had perfected their art and sure about it.

Trump is on Putin’s side. The Portuguese president said it out. Instead of EU going on the peace route and mending fences, they are still doing the “strong head” thingy

You not buying crude from Russia but will still buy SAME Russian oil from India. Are these lots really serious!

Connived with the US to blow up a subsea gas line that was serving your economy? Will the US do same for EU. Same US still buying enriched uranium from Russia.

EU leaders are puppets . They need a dogged leader like His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR)

I beg you if u dey mention president don't ever mention Tinubu. He is inec president

I used the blue sop aka songs of praise. Every Friday we learn new hymn and we sing one hymn every Mondays to Fridays. My favourite hymns are.
1. Guide me o thou great redeemer
2. When I survey thy wondrous cross.
3. Oh for a thousand tongues to sing.
4. Praise my soul the king of heaven.
5. Nearer my God to thee.

My worst songs are:
1. Rock of ages cleft for me.
2. Jerusalem on high.
3. In the bleak mid winter! ( maybe that's y i hate the winter,lol)
4. There is a green Hill far away without a city wall.
Where the Lord God was crucified who died to save us all.
We may, we may not know, we cannot tell, what pains He had to bear.
But we, but we believe, it was for us.....
Shout out to my teachers in Jellylas (Mr safo, Mr macleon, Mr Leonard, etc) and union baptist Agege ( Mr Agboola, Mr matins)

CoronaVirusPro:
A good move by the administration of His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR)

Efficiency comes at a cost and increment is welcomed.

Such increment should be the extended to education. The universities cannot compete internationally with the current rate. Universities need to step up their fees in order to deliver top notch education that makes them competitive.

Mr ode, since u want to compare Nigeria with developed world, is Nigeria paying salary like developed world. Some of u just open mouth waaaa

B3sty:
Hmmmm, I experienced the same thing when I got married in 2015. She did Fibroid operation in 2016, no results. We both went to test ourselves, Doctors found out I've no fertility issues...My wife did HSG , we found out both Fallopian tubes are block. Omo, we tried many herbal remedies, no way. By December this year (2025), my marriage will be 10 years. Only God know what my Mother (RIP MAMA, 2023) went through for my cause.
Anyway, My girlfriend is currently Pregnant, we did it just once and she picked...
Bro, the ball is in your court. No time to waste time !

Infact u took the word out of my mouth. Bro u will need a lot of money and you will eventually battle with depression and high BP. Its better to have low sperm count than blocked fallopian tube. Well use ur tongue to count ur teeth. U see the looking for second or side chuck is what u will eventually do with time. Blocked tube no be easy thing. Forget all those herbal or church. Nothing can unblock it except by sheer luck.

I read all what you guys typed there but many people don't understand that to relocate no be easy thing. Some people use up to 7years before they are stabilised. Its much easier to get homeless and be depressed. House rent is monthly. No abeg for their. Some people go months without jobs. Some people are sent money from Nigeria to pay house rent. Some people leave on the street. Some people because of wahala are mentally depressed in mental home because they are stressed trying to pay bills. Most Nigerians dem selves are ingrate. They say uk people no dey pass 20k but forget say no be only them dey drag the same person. Guy that u don't know if he is in prison or in debt. First 3years some people still dey pay school fees debt. Some people self no know how their rent will be paid. 3yrs some people are still struggling to understand even the language so how can dey even get good jobs. Do u know that jobs abroad is harder than Nigeria jobs. Do u know that even with masters many Nigerians are still doing KP, warehouse, replenished etc. Wouldn't u be talking if the guy called u and start lamenting about how bad or terrible his state his? No be this same platform people were celebrating when their was a news about uk and usa deporting Nigerians some weeks ago. People were saying they should bring them to nigeria so they all suffer together. Person no contact u why don't u contact him before putting all those out. There are two options it's either u didn't treat him well or he is still finding hus feet.

I always spend 300 naira to get a cool hair cut and 100 naira for my barber to apply dye on my hair. (I have my own dye) Hence he just mixed and apply). But if i don't want to apply dye, na 300 naira normally here in kaduna.
But i traveled to lagos last week and decided to barb my hair. After barbing, i ask the barber how much, he told me 1k. Like 1,000 naira. Omo we almost had an argument cause i felt cheated.
I cannot be barbing my hair again every week in this lagos.
Despite i went with my own clipper. The guy no even on gen

17£ to 20£. Here na by how low u want it to be. If very low na 20-25£ depending on shops. Barbing cost for here. Heard it is much expensive in london

The day I stopped believing all these Nigerian pastor was 2020. No man of God could predict something of magnitude like COVID 19. All these men of God never foresee it. My Bible made me to understand that if you walk with God he will show you hidden secrets and things to come. When God wanted to destroy sodom and Gommorah, he told Abraham even though Abraham was not even living there. Something like that can not happen and God will keep it away from his servant or children. All we have is God of men.

BrutusOj:
this is funny, did they train you in school? Are you not doing the lesson cos of money? Or you told them the lesson is a way of you giving back to the society? You are not finished if you set a standard for yourself, except you are not good in what you do before you can be at their mercy. I didn't tolerate any parent more than one month in my days of that home lesson hustles, if I leave, their children begin to give them headache and I hardly turn back once I stop coming to your house for lesson, except in few cases where we already had a good relationship before you start misbehaving. I guess you are in a rural area or probably an early years teacher. No Mathematics, Physics or Chemistry teacher stoop low for parents to rubbish in the name of home lesson except he/she isn't sound.

If you are good u are good. My primary school students were already solving gmat maths questions. I don drill them. Even their classmates were telling their parents to employ these kids lesson teacher. I no dey teach for their school but all their teachers knows me. When I was teaching in secondary school shingbai I no dey see because most parents believed that if their kids no know book they go use special centres but u see primary school if u are good u will see correct lessons. If you are good and firm the kids go respect u. Last time I came to Nigeria, I brought them lots of chocolates and biscuits. I also gave them 10 to 20£ to my lesson students. Then during pta or teachers day I go carry gift tire go house. Primary school is better than secondary for lesson hustle for teachers

Teacher's salary is so poor that if u don't do extra lesson u won't have even money to feed. I taught for over 14years. Started from senior secondary teaching physics, maths and further maths. I noticed that you will hardly see lessons for this level of class because they are mostly independent. Then I moved to primary school even that I already have a masters in science from unilag. Then I used to make close to 200k while my salary was 50k. I was so good that I have my hands full that I always give out lessons to my colleagues. I had a family where I taught three kids and the kids are so good that even their teachers in school was like this ur lesson teacher is making my work easier. After a while I was just going to collect pension. I told their parents that these children don't need lesson teacher again because they already have studying habits and foundation is already strong but their mama no gree. When I got visa to the UK, the kids were almost crying. I had like 5kids I was taking. Least was 40k. I was even short paid but my lesson parents never owed me. One paid my ticket to uk self

From Hunger to Hope: Reflecting on Nigeria’s Journey Since “Ebi n Pawa”

“Ebi n pawa!” That expression — “We are hungry” — wasn’t just a complaint two years ago. It was a cry from the soul of a nation. It echoed from Lagos to Kano, Port Harcourt to Maiduguri. You didn’t need a microphone to hear it; it was in the faces of mothers at the market, fathers at the bus stop, young men on the streets, and children waiting for meals that never came. It became the anthem of pain, the chorus of a people grappling with the shock of sweeping reforms introduced by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in his very first week in office.

Nigeria was in turmoil, not because the policies were necessarily wrong, but because their timing hit a society already living on the edge. So the question we now face — two years later — is both urgent and fair: Are we still that hungry?

Back in May 2023, when Tinubu took the reins of power, the foundation of the Nigerian economy was cracked. No, not cracked — shattered. The nation was drowning in debt, most of it incurred not for building railways or factories, but for paying salaries, maintaining a fuel subsidy that lined the pockets of the rich, and defending an artificial exchange rate that stifled growth.

What the new president inherited was more than a moribund economy; it was a ticking time bomb. Oil had already been sold forward, meaning Nigeria was effectively broke. There was no money coming in from crude exports — our primary source of income — because it had been mortgaged in advance.

The previous administration of Buhari had quietly printed money, devaluing the naira without the courtesy of telling the public. But Tinubu couldn’t cry foul too loudly — some of those who caused this mess were his political allies.

He could have chosen the path of least resistance, the usual Nigerian way: kick the can down the road and pretend everything was fine. But he didn’t. In one of the boldest opening acts in Nigerian political history, he removed the fuel subsidy.

Suddenly, the price of fuel tripled. Transporters raised fares. Traders hiked prices. Even sachet water vendors felt the pinch. The people who were already struggling now felt like they were suffocating. The frustration was real, and so was the anger. Social media went ablaze. Protests flared. Opposition voices got louder. “Ebi n pawa!” they cried — and rightly so.

But that wasn’t the end of the storm. Next came the unification of the exchange rate. Nigeria had operated a dual-rate system for years, one for the privileged few who accessed dollars at official rates, and another for the rest of us who scrambled for forex in the black market. It was a system ripe for corruption, creating billionaires overnight while choking real businesses.

By merging the rates, Tinubu wiped away a major incentive for fraud. It wasn’t smooth — it never is. The naira plunged. The cost of imported goods spiked. But this was the price of honesty, of facing the truth about how things really were.

So, yes, we were hungry. But that hunger wasn’t just about food. It was about the pain that comes with correction — the sting of necessary surgery. The old system was bleeding us dry, and for once, someone decided to stitch the wound instead of just covering it up with another bandage.

Fast forward two years, and the picture is beginning to shift. No, it’s not yet paradise. Inflation is still biting. Prices of rice and garri still bring tears to the eyes. But compared to the chaos of 2023, we’re not where we used to be. Take a closer look — not with emotions, but with the eyes of understanding — and the signs of progress become clear.

Today, Nigeria has exited the IMF debtors’ list. That’s not just a statistic — it’s proof that we are no longer borrowing just to survive. The Tinubu administration cleared a $1.61 billion debt and restored Nigeria’s credibility on the global stage. Foreign investors are watching, and they’re starting to return. The stock market is booming. When he took over, the All Share Index stood at 55,738 points. Now, it’s over 103,000. Market capitalization has crossed ₦63 trillion. That’s not magic — it’s investor confidence fueled by clearer, bolder policies.

And what about infrastructure? The fuel subsidy money is no longer going into the pockets of oil marketers. It's now being used to build things we can see — roads, rail lines, and power projects that matter to everyday life. The Renewed Hope Infrastructure Fund is not just a slogan; it’s real. The foundations are being laid for a stronger, more connected Nigeria.

Tinubu's federal government has embark on major road construction and rehabilitation projects across all geopolitical zones, from the Abuja- Kaduna-Zaria-Kano Dual Carriageway, the 9th Mile-Oturkpo-Makurdi Road, the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway, Abuja-Lokoja-Benin Road, Enugu-Onitsha Expressway, Oyo-OgbomosoRoad, Sokoto-Badagry Road, Enugu-Port Harcourt Expressway, Second Niger Bridge Access Road to Bodo-Bonny Road among hundreds of ongoing road projects across the country.

Let’s talk food. Yes, hunger still exists. But the grip of the grain cartels — those faceless hoarders who manipulated scarcity for profit — has been broken. When the price of rice soared beyond ₦100,000, Tinubu’s team didn’t just watch. They acted. Tariffs on food imports were suspended. Mechanized farming equipment was imported from the US, Brazil, and Belarus. Local farmers received incentives.

Gradually, food production is rising. The goal is clear: Nigeria must feed itself. The youth have not been left out. From the Skill-Up Artisans Programme to the National Youth Talent Export initiative, young Nigerians are being prepared to compete globally.

NYSC members now earn ₦77,000, up from ₦33,000. That’s not just a raise — it’s dignity restored. And for those struggling with tuition, the Student Loan Scheme now offers real hope. No one should drop out because they can’t afford fees, and that’s the message this administration is sending.

Even the average Nigerian can now dream of owning appliances or even a car through the Consumer Credit Corporation. Over ₦200 billion has been set aside so that ordinary citizens can buy goods and pay over time. For a country where “cash and carry” was once the only way, this is revolutionary.

Security is still a challenge, yes, but there’s movement. The military has been better equipped. Inter-agency coordination has improved. Kidnappings haven’t disappeared, but many sleeper cells have been dismantled. The approach is shifting — not just guns, but intelligence and strategy.
Revenue?

In just six months of 2024, government revenue rose by ₦9.1 trillion. That’s more than double what we had in the same period the year before. And for the first time, all three levels of government — federal, state, and local — are receiving steady, increased allocations. That means more power to the grassroots, where change is most visible.

Wages have gone up too. The new national minimum wage stands at ₦70,000. Not everyone in the informal sector is feeling it yet, but it's a signal — that this government recognizes the dignity of labor and is ready to walk the talk.

Still, let’s not pretend that all is well. Many Nigerians are tired. The pain of the past two years is real. Prices are still high. The naira still needs more stability. And the wounds from the fuel subsidy removal are still fresh in many homes.

But transformation is never painless. It comes with dislocation. It requires sacrifice. And it demands patience. What Nigeria is undergoing is not just reform — it’s a full-blown economic reset. We’ve moved from illusion to reality, from quick fixes to long-term solutions. It hurts now, but it heals later.

And so we return to that haunting slogan: “Ebi n pawa.” Are we still hungry? Not in the same way. We are no longer hungry because of hopelessness; we are hungry because we are in transition. We are adjusting. We are healing. And we are learning to live in a system that finally tells the truth.

The hunger of 2023 was panic — confusion in the face of sudden change. The hunger of 2025 is different. It is the hunger of a nation finding its feet, discovering its strength, and realizing that growth is a process. But processes need time. Buildings need completion. Foundations need walls and roofs. We cannot afford to abandon the journey at halftime. President Tinubu has started something bold — something rare in our history. He didn’t play to the gallery. He played for the future. Now that we see the first fruits, do we go back to the same policies that brought us to the brink? Or do we press on?

Let’s be honest with ourselves: for any meaningful reform to succeed, continuity is key. Interrupting this process in 2027 would be like removing a doctor halfway through surgery and expecting a miracle. Nigeria cannot afford to go back to subsidy games, dual exchange rates, and lazy borrowing. The path is tough, yes. But it’s also clear. And with Tinubu at the wheel, the destination is visible.

So, no — we are not as hungry as we were. We are still hungry, but now with hope, with direction, and with purpose. We are no longer lost. We are no longer blind. We know where we’re going. And if we truly want to see the end of this hunger — not just a temporary fix but a lasting solution — then we must let this government finish what it started.

Come 2027, we must not change direction for the sake of change. We must hold on to the one leadership bold enough to break the old and build the new. Because what Nigeria needs is not just another election — what it needs is consistency, courage, and continuity.

My friend u are just trying to paint a bad incidence in good light. Just like been economical with the truth. Even tinubu knows that he has failed woefully so why trying so hard to paint him in a good light. Tinubu never promised that he was going to make Nigerians suffer or fuel price high same as dollars. He never promised Nigerians that he was going to take this long to fix the country. He is a big failure period

Sirchiboy:
Name one mistake you have made in life so someone else doesn’t do it.

Believing that Nigeria will get better and hence not leaving when I was in my early twenties but forties.
Our parents lied that sojourn can never be sweeter than home. Not during apc regime. See ajo is sweeter than home.
Second is going for higher degree instead of certifications and training. Adding education level instead of skills.

Hmm... Africans and obsession with ethnicity. Too much diversity is a recipe for disaster and confusion . It's time Africans start consolidating into a strong unified force. Check out the Whites , in the USA, you can't tell apart people that have Irish, English, Scottish, Polish, etc. origins. The Hutus are fighting the Tutsis. One black man from Ogbomosho is busy fighting another black man from Anambra...all from the same country.

Guy na lie be that. If u wan see fight, call a Scottish British and come see fight. Abi na Welsh way dey happy say Queen die u wan say they are united. When Spain was playing England in the European Cup na all the Scottish way I know dey support Spain. No one supported England. Truth is a Scott will never be friends with English but English man always support Scottish but scot no hate English pass The way Europe hate Putin for real

If I am the president of this country, teacher, doctors, armed forces go get highest salary even more than law makers because of their services. Any government that pays their teachers peanut like Nigerian Government can never grow. I will even do better than that lady. Me way I dey recognise my secondary school classmates from voice call after like 26yrs ago

I think they should be conducting mental assessment for the Nigerian law makers because how on earth will someone with functioning brain wake up and think of such stupid thought , not evaluating if it makes sense before opening his mouth wide like he goat to say it in the chamber. Funniest thing is that another idiot supported it showed that we have failed as a nation to elect slow thinking people to govern us. The top is that this bill was put forward by speaker and supported by deputy speaker of the house is the most shameful thing to ever come out in this dispensation. Their counterpart are arguing how to move their nation forward, ours are arguing how to enslave theirs. No bills on welfare, no bills on corruption, no bills on human right nothing. By the time the youth wake up there won't be any country to call our own

When samsung 25 ultra is 1500£. That is over 3million naira. Though the phone worth am sha.

So 2011, I was in a face me i face u apartment where I share a room with my friend who also was a teacher colleague of mine. So jokingly I said let's do visa lottery. Na so I apply for him, myself, his uncle and his wife. After some months I decided to check result. I checked his uncle, he no win, check the wife she no win , I checked my friend own na so the stupid boy win. I checked my own I no win. That day I just dey tell my head say e be like suffer never tire u. Play play na so my guy go usa. Na after 10 years I see uk enter. My friend said if he no win that year e no know werin his life go be. Abroad good. Wetin I struggled to achieve for 14years e no even reach 5months I don achieve am. When I see my picture when I was in Nigeria I no believe say na the same me. Poverty no good

Barca is out
