HEAVEN4444:I'm healed as much as, thank you. A cousin of mine who came to see me off when I left Naija for the NHS died a week after I left, so I dare not moan. We did not have the same illness, and his was in fact more manageable than mine except in Naija, unfortunately. |
HEAVEN4444:Permanent. Well aired home ensures no smell. Just close kitchen door to contain, and open windows and switch on extractor. QPR has not been in Queen's Park since 1917. |
The amount in tariffs collected by the government in July rose to $28 billion, from $26.6 billion in June, $22.2 billion in May, $15.6 billion in April, and $8.2 billion in March, when collections from the new tariffs began. https://wolfstreet.com/2025/08/02/tariff-cash-is-rolling-in-hits-28-billion-in-july/

HEAVEN4444:Queen's Park station. Me and my whole family do not smell. Our mother was a theatre nurse. Cleanliness is not optional. I do still miss Naija. I got relatives there I miss and my farm, and unfortunately can not go because of the health equipment I'd have to take with me. |
Was about to eat my one meal of eba one night when a classmate turned up crying. We'd just started poly, and he'd gone home to get money from his brother he'd been saving his wages with for last 5 years, only to be told there was no money. I was having issues at home at the time and was skint managing 001 with lots of water, but asked him to lets eat my eba first then think what to do. We decided to live together to save on rent and share resources, which worked fine, especially when my dad took responsibility (9 year dead today incidentally). I'd come home and drop my wallet in the draw where we'd both have access. Once, his younger brother visited and stayed a couple of days. By the second day he was starving and asked me if we wouldn't eat, to wit I told him we were broke, and would eat at night. "Broke kẹ? He said. "I gave my brother money when I arrived". That modafuka brother had been eating out behind our back while we starved! Ruined our friendship, it did. |
HEAVEN4444:Lived in West London, far from Peckham, but bus 36 was direct then as it still is. My house was the gatecrash pad because I was the first to return, and my siblings and parent soon followed, plus a couple of cousins and a few temporary guests. There were times I slept in the bath. |
Enice:When you hire a builder to build you a house, does he move into the house so you don't chop your chop? Devakumar Edwin has worked for Dangote since 1992. I'm sure he chops comfortably. |
Had a cousin live with me once. I gave him my bedroom and I slept on the sofa. He paid no rent, apparently assuming the government paid citizen's rent, and would eat everything left in my pot after I ate. One day I went to Peckham, bought fish and Guinness and went home to cook rice and dodo. As I was eating, he arrived and asked if I'd taken all I want so he can eat the rest as he normally would, but I told him I hadn't, and would be eating it all as I didn't cook any for him. All the Guinness was mine too, I said, which shocked him as I usually share. "Oh", I said, "and when I finish, I'd like a word please". "Did your family (my maternal) tell you my family owes you and you should come and collect", I asked. That's when he told me he thought the government was feeding me and paying my rent. "So, when you see me go to work l, What's that", I asked. We decided he'd be paying rent and would contribute to electric and water and buy his own food or pay for mine if he eats it. He stayed for 5 years and sensitised the 8 other people who stayed with us in that time. He did run up my landline with calls to America so I got a £200+ bill. I called the person, got number from itemised bill, and found out it was his friend before confronting him. He said he thought it would not count because the phone was locked and he'd found a way around it. |
Enice:Looks like Devakumar is a builder, and not a manager. Different skills set. Sad though, that Dangote could not find a Nigerian. |
If Tinubu were sincere he'd call to make this illegal. He did after all impose the old anthem on us.
|
esnbrutality:Nigeria does not feed me. When you call Nigeria a zoo you call your Nigerian self an animal.
|
This is sad, and I hope they get justice. Ruke1990:I am very delighted very many non-Yorubas do not reason like you do and assume there are average Yorubas or Nigerians.

"This is the first time in history seeds from Nigeria will be going to space."Some day, the first Nigerian might go to space too so we don't end up celebrating egusi only. Edit* I'm tutored. A Nigerian has been to space! https://www.vanguardngr.com/2025/07/space-how-i-travelled-in-diapers-holding-alligator-pepper-bitter-kola-owolabi-salis/

Ibime:Not that I expect this to make a difference. Israel knows how much food is needed. It has been calibrating hunger in Gaza for decades, initially calculating shipments to exert pressure while avoiding starvation. Yet data compiled and published by Israel’s own government makes clear that it has been starving Gaza. Between March and June, Israel allowed just 56,000 tonnes of food to enter the territory, Cogat records show, less than a quarter of Gaza’s minimum needs for that period. “The idea is to put the Palestinians on a diet, but not to make them die of hunger,” a senior adviser to the then prime minister, Ehud Olmert, said in 2006. An Israeli court ordered the release of documents showing the details of those macabre sums two years later. |
Toruibestate:I mean whatever you make it mean to you, and can't help winder what you'll do if that child grows up to look more like you after you deny it now. |

bayelsaowei:The Chinese are eating the tariffs! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4PH0CJ0FNhM?si=GDuB7XKawNdeycoI |
benalvino3:It should be, if we stop burning it to pollute Port Harcourt. |
benalvino3:They can buy from closer Africa. The warning was delivered in a letter from Qatari Energy Minister Saad al-Kaabi, who also serves as CEO of the state-owned QatarEnergy, to the Belgian government in May 2025, the Welt am Sonntag newspaper reported. In the letter, al-Kaabi expressed concern over a proposed EU directive that would require large companies operating in Europe to ensure respect for human rights and environmental protections throughout their supply chains. |
basilico:EU will force companies to buy more expensive gas from USA? This I must see. |
HeatSeeker:Ignorance should not be one of those things. |
HeatSeeker:Hard to chill when all women are lumped up as one. It's ignorance that deserves venom. |
Keepamsafe:By not assuming all women are the same for starts. As that's dumb thinking that makes a young man seek only in such rot. |
Baxilexi:You really are one stubborn person, lol, and you cunning too. If you want to subjectively interpret it for your own IMO, that's your prerogative, but don't expect all to replace the objective with your subjective, I'd advise. The previous implemented constitution of Nigeria was the 1979. Do let me know where you'd be quoting "previous sections" so it "subsist" over the '99. I'm very intrigued. I do not agree "that it’s a pendulum swing process that goes both ways". And nor do I accept that our constitution, which is very clear on this issue Kemi ignorantly created, "is complex" at all. It couldn't be simpler in my opinion, which I don't expect to be your opinion. |
