“The University management has sent a delegation to the widow and children of the deceased, imploring them to take solace in God who gives life and also has the power to take life.”... .. But then what if it were the same God that provided food for the hungry lion? ..
imagrg: I have never been a supporter of the APC government because of Buhari's purported ineptitude but Tinubu's stance on the removal of petroleum subsidy started to captivate my interest and such bold move has started yielding some dividends.
I applaud Tinubu's boldness at removing subsidy on the price of petrol which some dubious Nigerians have used to enrich themselves at the detriment of the drowning state of our economy.
Now, the dream of refining petroleum products in Nigeria has become a reality with the flag-off of Dangote refinery. More competitors would soon come in and the cost of petroleum products would drop and Nigerians would heave a sigh of relief soon.
The problem with our country is not the government but the dubious nature of most Nigerians. This is the reason why free and fair election may continue to be a mirage in the country.
If tribal and religious sentiments are swept out of our body polity, Nigeria would bounce back to glory again.
Fraud and challenges of insecurity are another setback for economic development. I hope Tinubu would address these issues soon to give more credibility to his government.
You are free to air your views on this issue but please don't turn your responses to a war of words.
DeLaRue: The sad reality is that the government can't eradicate kidnapping.
As a civilian, I have spent time thinking about potential solutions to kidnapping and other security problems, but no solution can eradicate these issues.
You can be kidnapped sitting in your house. Even if your house is located next to a police station or a military barrack, you can be kidnapped. No where is safe. There are simply too many who are bent on criminality and they will not desist.
Even if the government employs 1 million police men and women, it won eradicate kidnapping. That's even not possible as the 45,000 that we have currently we can't even fund them properly.
Please note that I am not saying your question is improper, of course it is. The government must continue to be put under pressure to do more.
But we can't say the President must not entertain visitors because there is kidnapping in the country.

iwaeda: Bandits in their numbers have raided Danmusa town, the headquarters of Danmusa Local Government Area of Katsina State, killing nine residents.
A resident of the town, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told our reporter that the gunmen attacked the town around 8pm on Sunday and operated for hours, killing nine people, including a policeman.
He said the bandits also kidnapped yet to be ascertained number of people and wounded several others.
He added that the attackers conducted house to house raid, where they carted away valuables.
“As I speak to you, there are security agents shooting guns,” he said.
Another source in the town said two of the deceased victims were his neighbours, adding that the policeman who was killed during the house-to-house raid after they saw his uniform.
“We are currently preparing their bodies for funeral,” he said, adding that about seven people were also kidnapped.
Unconfirmed sources in the community said the attackers might be on a reprisal mission as one of the bandits leaders was captured and killed by the newly commissioned community watch corps in the local government.
“There was a bandits kingpin close to Katsira village who boasted that he would eliminate the new community watch corps. They mobilized and killed him in the process.
“It was a few days a go, and that is why we strongly believe that his boys mobilized to carry out this attack,” he said.
The police spokesman in Katsina, ASP Abubakar Sadiq Aliyu, who confirmed the last night attack, said five persons were killed.
He promised to get back to our reporter for an update on the incident.

optionalY09: whatever you want to create create it, but have you consider training these huge nigerian young population how to think and stay coordinated to achieve goals.
Enlist all able young men into selective service and train them also use that opportunity to use them in nation building. Every Nigerian men between the age of 16 -26 should serve Nigeria at least two years. (High school or not high school)
During that 2 years you will train, provide food and shelter for them and they’ll help in building the countries infrastructures and other other areas where their talents can be useful.
Instead of smoking loud and kolos up and down they’ll be useful for the country and have the opportunity to be trained
KiNg0G: I am not here for financial aid but help from people who have overcome such problems.
I can't help but think, when I get married with a wife and kids to feed, is this how I am going to continue? How will my family respect me.
This is the 3rd time of me replacing my tv set in the last 2years. Whenever I run out of money, I search for anything valuable to sell in my home, with the mindset that I will replace it. Which I normally do but sometimes it takes time because i know i might sell it again within some weeks. This is getting on me deeply with the number of cartons of phones and receipts from same equipments I no longer have. My generator is another thing to talk about that my neighbors and landlord are starting to gossip because I can't explain changing of generator to and fro when its always placed outside.
I know I need help but don't know how to go about this. I am not here for financial assistance as claimed by some peoples in anyway please, some of us seek for ways to stop some certain things when we know we are falling off tracks.
I am on my way to lg office to replace my TV for the third time and the thought of it warrants this post.

Mama Maguire your son na serious flop....thank your stars say na england....wallahi, your son ,no even get quarter potentials to play for Nigerian league......"son wey dey score own goals consecutively,that one na son?
AImiron: Harry Maguire's mother Zoe has issued a statement in response to the negativity which has followed the England and Man Utd centre-back around.
Centre-back Maguire has been struggling for game time at club level but featured in both England matches in the recent international break. In the 3-1 win in Scotland, though, he was subject to abuse from certain individuals, both before and after scoring an unfortunate own goal.
30-year-old's defence during the week, hitting out at the behaviour of some of Maguire's critics. Three Lions goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale also launched an impassioned defence, and now Maguire's mother has added her voice to theirs.
“As a mum seeing the level of negative and abusive comments in which my son is receiving from some fans, pundits and the media is disgraceful and totally unacceptable to any walk of life never mind someone who works his socks off for club and country," the statement - posted on Instagram - begins. "I was there in the stand as usual, it's not acceptable what's been created, over nothing.”
" I understand that in the football world there are ups and downs, positives and negatives but what Harry receives has gone far beyond 'football'. For me seeing him go through what he's going through is not ok.”
“ I would hate to have to see any other parents or players go through this in the future, especially the young boys and girls breaking through the ranks today. Harry has a massive heart and it's a good job he's mentally strong and can handle it as others might not be able too, I wish this sort of abuse on nobody!"

I no reason your st Paul epistle to Romans but I know say na RUBBISH so sharp!!!
MimiSheWrote: Hello Everyone, first of all I apologize in advance for the long note and also about my English, not actually my first language.
My name is Mimi, I was born in Nigeria... But cos of the nature of my dad's profession i have spent around 75% of my life in different countries outside Nigeria... Mostly in EU.
Well enough said about myself, cos this topic is not about me but about Nigerians... Our general mentality and perception of abroad.
Guys listen up... All that glitters is not really gold. Out there is not entirely what people think it is. And you might think just because I have spent so much time outside Nigeria i do not understand the struggle in Nigeria and therefore not qualified to tell you all this "nonsense"..... I completely get it.. trust me.
But even a random 3 years old kid knows that the country is messed up and nothing to write home about, we all know about the Suffering, depression and "starvation level of poverty" in Nigeria yeah.... That's why everyone is desperatly looking for a way out, no doubt... but trust me, JAPA is not 'always' your ticket out of poverty... Well 'sometimes' it is... but most times it's just your direct ticket to being subjected to racism,more depression,more struggles,several mental disorder,homelessness, modern day slavery and the list goes on and on.
Trust me... when it comes to hustling field, success is much more louder than failure. cos our mind was designed to constantly search for hope. which means you would quickly hear about the lucky 3% that made it big through JAPA, but hardly hear about the remaining unlucky 97% that found themselves in worse possible condition after the same JAPA. There's no money tree out here... there's no diamond river out here... Is there more opportunities? Well yes, But there are millions of people that already done and still doing whatever you intend to come do over here and yet they are still in the worse condition than you are in right now.
You would literally cry when you see what most of our African brothers and sisters go through around the world in the name of Japa. And as a Nigerian?? Trust me it gets worse.. and your chances gets even much smaller. Cos no one trust Nigerians anymore any where around the world and I believe we all know why.
Sorry but I'm not trying to burst anyone's bubble, kill anyone's vibe or being a negative biitch! Naaaah I'm only trying to be realistic! I'm only trying to tell you something no travel agent would ever tell you and something people abroad hardly tell you, and even when they eventually do tell you...? You don't believe them.. instead you result to asking them questions like "why are they still there if it's that bad"? .....
Well.... You wanna know why most of them are still there? Let me tell you why... there is a psychological reason for that... First They are still in DENIAL. Imagine dreaming your entire life to travel abroad and finally have a good life, you probably invested almost everything or everything you have got to make it happen (your money, your time, your last hope) But then you finally got there and then meet a reality that is entirely different from your life long dreams and perception of these faraway green lands? I don't know if you know... but our brain is defensive in nature, it will automatically switch straight to denial mode... Leaving you with atleast enough 'hope and wait for a magic or should i say a miracle' (afterall this is abroad where magic happens?) This is just one of the reasons why most of these people continue sticking around instead of returning home.
Another reason is that they are worried about what people back home would say or think... Because the people back home also got this general fvcked up mentality and very high expectation of people coming back from Japa (y'all need to stop it! Y'all need to get rid of that mentality, seriously ) cos like I said earlier... there is no bleeping money tree over there! I don't know where Nigerians got that idea from in the first place... It needs to stop, yall driving the youth nuts with such mentality, it's doing more harm than good. That high expectation/ pressure back home is mostly the reason our people are more likely to result to crime out here (so just stop it! )
I have met alot of other African nationalities abroad... and amazingly they don't share the same mentality we have about Abroad. They treat abroad as just another hustling ground and not a direct ticket to success... Therefore they are more relaxed and less pressured than Nigerians out here.
Moving Abroad is not such a bad idea though, it worked and still works for few lucky ones (including my Family) it would be wrong and biased of me if I fail to mention that.. There are plenty of and more opportunities over out here not doubt... But what I'm just saying is that... it's not always that easily reached.. as most people automatically believe. Look... Somehow all these countries are intelligently designed In such a way that it take back almost entirely everything you make out here from you one way or the other... Through tax, through mind blowing bills or random expenses around every corner.
And at the end of the day you realize you are nothing but a modern day slave building someone's country for free... And without freedom.
Most people screaming Japa in Nigeria are far in better living condition and more stable mentally ,more happy than majority of people in the so called abroad without even knowing it. Sometimes Instead of gambling and betting your hard earned million of naira on Japa, it's more advisable to chill out... relax and invest that Millions in Nigeria. I'm just saying... You would probably end up living a life most people over there can only envy and dream of.
Thanks for reading my long note... I hope this helps someone in making a life decision out there. #ItsYourGurlMimi
