All Nigerians are too avaricious, grabby and greedy, the level of covetousness of Nigerian people can be very disgusting to say the least.
I know lots of us here we tend to blame the Policemen but we equally do the same in our various field, ranging from churches, mosque, banks, hotel, restaurant, market etc. we priorities money more than our services to mankind

That's a feature of Capitalism, to prioritise profit/money over humanity. If we're talking about grabby and covetousness, the Europeans still come first. They industrialised covetousness.

If Sheffield know how to exploit the two 6 spaces between Konate and Szobozlai or VVD and Gravenberch, those spaces beside Mac Allister that he's too slow to cover, just like Fulham did last week and Chelsea have been doing since 2019 using inverted wingers, then Sheffield can guarantee themselves 2 goals. When opp carry the ball from the sideline to centre in that space during a counter, Liverpool centre backs are usually hesitant to do anything because the striker is probably also making a run at the same time. We suffer this thing for Sterling and Foden hand tire. Players that carry ball into pockets of space kill Liverpool.

But Klopp shows that he's levels below Pep sometimes when even he doesn't identify his weaknesses. Because of that 6 space, it's imperative that Liverpool invests in the best of DMs in the world who can show up defensively consistently to close up the space and also play out the back. Someone like Rodri.

I'm posting this as a response to the topic that made Nairaland front page yesterday; "See What Someone Bought With An Hour Minimum Wage In The UK £10", the link: https://www.nairaland.com/7929193/see-what-someone-bought-hour

UK & US ARE OVER-RATED NIGERIA IS STILL BETTER in terms of cost of living see a practical example why doing a price comparison: 1 pound to 1 naira today is N1,001 so are you saying with £10 x N1,001 = N10,001 you cannot buy everything in that basket and collect change in Nigeria today?

1 Sliced Bread = N800
2 Spaghetti = N1400
1 Gesha = N600
1 live chicken = N3,000
1 75cl soya Oil = N1,400
1 Midium size Butter = N600
2 Gino Tomato paste = N1,000

Total = N8,800 so your change is N1,200 that's if you exchange pound to naira at offical rate and buying at the most expensive stores or high brands. If you exchange at black market rate and buy at public market "days" you will collect as much as N6,000 after buying everything in that basket....that's about £6 left.

LET'S JUST THANK GOD FOR WHAT WE HAVE AND STOP LOOKING AT AND GLORIFYING ANOTHER MAN'S LAND MORE THAN OUR OWN....OUR OWN NA OUR OWN O

Uh oh someone wasn't paying attention during economics class in secondary school

O.P what's your WhatsApp number? I want pricing of roof and I'd like to get back to you when you send the estimate....and please leave your WhatsApp status open for me

They won't help him now he's crying
when he dies... people will use him to chase clout...

You people do not understand your reality is why you all sound like robots when things happen.

You live in a capitalist country/system where profit comes before everything, including humanity.
The best way to make profit from the man is after his death, right now he's not valuable. And we allow it so why you acting surprised?

Whereas in a socialist economy, humanity comes before profit. In fact it's the duty of the government to provide jobs for the citizens or pay them wages where there are no jobs.

brain54:
That’s a beautiful tree…


If na Africa them for done chop am down… use am for firewood 🪵 since 1793.

We no really get value for such things!

Wrong. Africa used to value trees the most that we even had spiritual connection with certain trees until white people came with their imperialism, gaslightling us into thinking they were more civilised.

Delacroix6:
You are not alone young blud.
I'm 26 years old man and I sound like a 16 years old girl.
I hated it so much but lately I have learnt to accept it.

So we’re plenty 😂😂 I'm 26 too and I sound like a 12 year old boy. The worst part is I have the body of a 35 year old. 6'3, bloodshot eyes and bearded.

I get respect before speaking and then disrespected after I speak. Happens every time.

I get spoken over, I get awkward silences after I speak in the group of people, I can’t even convince anybody anymore. What’s painful is as a kid I used to have so much confidence because I was outspoken and all kids sounded funny so I fitted in. Now I don’t even shout.

Although, early in the morning, my voice is usually as deep as a lion's. I lose it by 11am like Ariel from The Little Mermaid lol.

codedgalaxy:
Stop talking.
Even though i have a deep voice, my words are always few.
Secoundly stop yapping at every convo,and even when you do speak, talk like you have all the time in the world, i.e make your speach slowly that way, they carry more weight.
Damn !

What if people keep quiet awkwardly after you’ve spoken slowly with tiny voice?

It has to be bread nau. Slice bread of 250 now 1000 haba. Bread wey dem don dey chop since before Jesus Christ.

Nlanalyst:
Tsimikas Otondo?
You goofed on that one.

His first half buddy. You no watch match?

Nlanalyst:
Two assists, Otondo? You funny Sha.
Tsimikas deserves an apology.

Oga his first half was nothing to write home about that's why he didn't get MOTM.

Playing 4 attackers especially when they’re playing very flexibly could mean a lot of loose passes and we’ve seen plenty from Liverpool but trust TRENT ALEXANDER-ARNOLD to calm the waters and read the attack. Although his defensive game still wobbles. He's the sole reason the attack is actually attacking.

Props to Gakpo too, he’s been everywhere and always making the right decisions. Very versatile player.

Jota seriously disturbing Brentford. His goal is loading.

Salah mehhhh. Nunez is showing spirit.

Tsimikas na otondo

When Klopp starts going under e go start to dey experiment like how e dey play both Gakpo and Darwin Nonsense together. How’s that supposed to work?
The only luck Klopp has is that it’s at Anfield if not e for be annihilation.

FT Liverpool 2 : 2 Brentford

Wittyness.

What will we do without you, Sherlock Witty?

Thundafireseun:

The Rich always looking for how to finish the liver and kidney of the poooooor …

It's refreshing to know that there are still conscious Nigerians. See the comment 2 comments above, celebrities won tell the guy wetin to do until he useless e sef.

Love your username btw.

Obiedun:
Obi himself is corrupt

True but at least your statement, when you say “himself” hints that someone else you are defending is also corrupt.

CoronaVirusPro:
How do people commit suicide? What do they think about?

In my down times, the moment I think of cat-fish pepper-soup, Egusi with stock-fish, Isi-ewu and Ofe Nsala, I always have more reasons to be on Earth!

Mere knowing that their is no beer and peppered meat afterlife, is enough reason to make you want to stay on Earth.

There are some special type of people that are very driven, people that have very high ceiling and when Nigeria is unable to help them achieve their goals, no amount of stock fish can satisfy them. You know they're driven because it takes a lot to commit suicide actually.

Perhaps you're not one of these type of special, very driven people, you're lucky lol

folake4u:
If we're honest with ourselves, this score line is nothing to be excited about. We should be scared with that display.

Against 9 tired men grasping for the straw of 90 mins, a decent team would have set Tottenham's net on fire the first few mins after they lost their second man. Instead, we struggled. Sweated. Cried. And after several misplaced passes, we finally won.

Now, stop and think what Manchester City would do to us with their 11 perfect players.

Whoever thought Mudryk was talented and referred him to our sheepish owner deserves 400 strokes of cane. The person probably read the stupid tattoo on the nape of Mudryk's neck -- "talent is not enough" and believed this yahoo boy with Chinese hair could play football.

Never seen a player so irredeemably clueless since I started watching football. Never!

😂😂 This what I was telling someone yesterday that football has been so saturated that speed now is everything. Just speed, zero technique. In fact zero knowledge of basic football.

Players like Nunez, Mudryk should not be playing top-flight nau. They're speed merchants, them full championship.!

Fibonacci88:
With that kind high line Salah for score like 6 goals var go cancel like 4 goals. Except for a team packing the bus that's when lfc will struggle with a man advantage

If Spurs 9 men park the bus, Spurs go win LFC 5-1. LFC and Klopp na mumu for park the bus, something wey man city dey use eat

whitejs:
What should I do to break out?

I can't give a speech in public.

I blank out at times when trying to express myself.

Also rapid heartbeat...

I feel more relaxed when alone.

As an adult, my social anxiety came as a result of my voice sounding weird I think because people look at me weird when I speak.

It's been a struggle growing out of it and what's funny is as a kid I was very confident because then all kids sounded weird.

plaindealer:
In Kenya, the budget for the office of their first Lady is almost 4 times more than what Nigerians are screaming and yelling over..

The Kenyan first lady's office budget is a whooping N4 Billion and this was back in 2019 so just imagine the budget today.

Some Nigerians are just knee-deep in poverty mentality.

Hmmm I wonder why Nigerians are knee-deep in poverty? Could it be that perhaps the money meant for their welfare is used to buy fleet of cars for one first lady? It can't be that right?

dbestcno:
96k loading if Liverpool wins

This one go pain you o

I’ve said it severally that fame doesn’t mean intelligence. Some of these celebrities struggled in school seriously.

It was his conclusion that bothered me the most. How can you say average Nigerians are the same as leaders without giving them a chance? Until a person holds PUBLIC office, you cannot just conclude that he or she will do the same like our past leaders.

Imitation is the greatest form of flattery.

Omoh that guy really finish you

Ade1177:
Plan heist?
You don't plan anything

Everything in the game is already planned
You have no real input

It's like watching a movie and you are asked to press □ ○ x

Sometimes you want to run
You are forced to walk
The dialogue is always too long
I even tried being a baddass and start shooting police
Under 1minute
Police don catch you and shoot you down with extreme and precise gunshot to the mfking head

You can't go outside the script
Unlike GTA

I only enjoyed the "beautiful graphics especially in the city"

It's not my type of game
Too many talk talk

My top baddass games that actually allows a player to play the game and not just watch a movie

1. Ghost of tsutushima
2. Devil may cry definitive edition
3. GTA v
4. Mortal Kombat
5. Sleeping dogs
6. Spiderman
7. Spiderman Miles Morales
8. Uncharted 1 to 5 ( you can approach each battle in a different way with different weapons)
9. Call of duty Franchise
10. God of war 3
11. Evil west
12. The order 1866
13. Assassin's creed origins
14. Last of us 1
15. Last of us 2
16. Far cry 3
17. Tomb raider definitive edition
18. God of war 2018
19. God of war Ragnarock
20. Rdr 2


That's my Top 20 according to how I enjoyed them "combat" wise

These are games I finished to the last cutscene

These are pretty good games. Fair enough. If combat wise, why COD and not Battlefield though?
COD is the classic “already planned no input”game

God save them I wasn’t on the bus, I’ll sue the hell out of the Lagos state government.

Ade1177:
I just finished the rdr2 till after Arthur death and John Marston becoming an errand boy

I still don't get the hype

It's a long Season film and not a game
Graphics are good
The action and actual gaming is average
Even the story is not that great
Just a bunch of thieves loyal to one moustache guy

There are more than 20 games I have played that are far better
With actual baddass gameplay that makes you want to replay
And better story

Woah! Who doesn’t love to plan heists, ride horses and shoot shotguns with beautiful sunsets in the back?

Maybe the game is just not your style. I’m a huge fan of the Wild West.

Mention some of the games you reckon are better…

NoonMasamune:
Expand your horizons bro. Your tecno phone should handle ps1 games as well. Metal gear solid, final fantasy 7, crash bandicoot. These are bit some of the amazing games you are missing out on

I do have PS 1 emulator as well but the games are very boring. I've been spoilt by games like RDR2 that make you forget it's just a game lol need a good story.

I miss gaming God😭 (pic below is my Lenovo and my Xiaomi mi 8 Se phone casing back in 2020).
Ever since I lost both my Lenovo Legion Y540(it just went off one day and wouldn't come back on), and my Xiaomi, I've been living like a church rat, playing Sega emulator Michael Jackson, Flintstones, Contra on one kwekwe tecno phone.

I miss Far Cry, Watchdogs, Sleeping Dogs, Horizon Zero Dawn, Forza, God Of War, RDR, Mafia, games with storytelling that you look forward to the next scene badly. I even miss my Euro Truck Simulator, just driving around after a bad day.

No wonder I've been depressed all year

Jbleenk:
Way to go. We are on the right track on this. Time to force the west to do our bidding as well

. If you can’t come here to build industries instead of pillaging our resources and exporting them to your countries then forget it we won’t allow you access to what you are so much in need of period.

What's way to go about this? It's still the same imperialism that we've been practicing since post-colonial times. You blacks sef. The Chinese board of directors and ceo who are on Forbes list because of the batteries will now be paying the Nigerian workers peanuts and you say you're enjoying.

The "way to go" is when we blacks, invest in our Nigerian engineers to build their own battery plant so that we can be the ones on Forbes list.
