The moment she heard “Police”, she remembered how she entered the UK. She remembered the stress to get papers. She remembered the owu waiting for her if she was charged and investigated. She remembered APC and the difficulty to japa.

At the mention of Police, her brain was quickly reset. She begged immediately. Labalaba dey form butterfly for another man country. See her nose and mouth as dem be.

Biodun556:
This is not the first time a Northerner will be appointed into political office in Lagos but you will never hear these people abusing the privilege by saying they own Lagos or Lagos is no man's land as the Igbos do.

It will be very difficult to know whether the Igbos are more than the Hausa/Fulani people or which one of them invest most in the state. Although, foreigners have the largest investment in Lagos. The largest refinery in Africa is established in Lagos by a Northerner yet those Igbos will spew rubbish that they are the ones financing the state.

Lagos allow non indigene and non Yorubas in the state public service due to their economic contributions nothing else. Rivers state has almost the same potential has Lagos with millions of non indigene contributing to economic development of the state but never allow them in the political affairs of Rivers state.

Igbos should learn from the Hausa /Fulani people how to be cultured and not abusing privileges.

Are you an indigene? Are you from Lagos? I am sure your head resembles that of an agama lizard.

Zoharariel:
Your story is really touching. I have heard & read of similar tragic stories such as this that elicit sympathy.

I keep saying it, all the stupid people shouting “Japa out of Nigeria, Japa to Abroad at all cost” on Nairaland front page are stupid, senseless, vacuous secondary school children who have never left their parent’s house for a day and who do not understand how the world works.

Personally, I cannot count the number of acquaintances that I know since 1999 till date who have died untimely in their stupid quest to “Japa out of Nigeria” for greener pastures.

I am not mocking anybody. It’s just that I am allergic to stupidity.

You do not have any relative abroad who can take care of you. You do not have enough money to sustain you abroad. You do not have any connections abroad but you want to Japa at all cost because you think Nigeria is worse than every other Country on Earth.

Well, by the time you Japa into your grave, you will receive that sense that have eluded you since birth - by force.

Continue taking & following the advice of some stupid illiterates on the internet.

“ You do not have any relative abroad who can take care of you. You do not have enough money to sustain you abroad. You do not have any connections abroad but you want to Japa at all cost because you think Nigeria is worse than every other Country on Earth”.

Oga have you heard the word “adventure” before? Have you heard the words “ exploration” or “discovery” before? Those Europeans who took risks on ships to discover Africa, Asia, America, etc, were not stupid. They did not have relations or friends where they ventured. They developed friends and raised families. Today you enjoy social media because others took the risk centuries ago.

Now if you are not bold enough to take the risk, do not castigate others who are willing to take the risk to make their lives better.

The way Nigeria goes, or even the rest of black Africa, is it not necessary to japa in search of better lives; especially now that you are young and able? Even your leaders send their children abroad and leave them there.

Bros, abeg leave japaists alone.

My Anambra Story:

How I Was Refused Jobs and Condemned to Become a Bus Conductor For Being a Yoruba

For a Greater Untribalized Nigeria where every Tribe shall have equal Opportunity to Enjoy, Fulfill and Impact the Nation, Bola Tinubu is the Answer!

Lagos is open to every tribes to explore and fulfil their dreams. We have heard people who are from the South East telling their Lagos story, and sweet ones at that. They tell their Tinubu stories and how they were able to fulfil their dreams with the magic touch of the great leader. But that is not the case in the South East. If you are not from the land, you will rot with your dreams. The discrimination and tribalism in that part of Nigeria is worse to such an extent that someone from Imo state would dare not look for job in a neighbouring Anambra state. Now imagine you being a Yoruba man looking for job yonder!

@Fagabamila Oluwadamilare narrated his Anambra story from my inbox. This is what he wrote:

As a fresh graduate in 1988, I moved to Onitcha with my brother newly transferred from Ibadan to African Feb publisher Nkpor Rd. I searched for job everywhere, including the State Ministries in Awka plus Premier Brewery, but all to no avail. Meanwhile, there were advert running on radio and daily newspapers that those places I went to were looking for people to employ.

After appointments upon appointments by the Personnel Manager of Premier Brewery, then one Mr Chuks called me. He felt pity on me and told me he didn't have power to employ, else he would have liked me to work there. He gave me two hundred naira and advised me not to bother myself coming again.

I left. And right outside the gate, by the left side, a woman was there selling snacks. I bought a bottle of coke with meat pie and told the woman to offer a bottle to a young man sitting at one corner. That was when the young man asked me about my mission at the company. He said he had seen me more than three times and had been wondering what my mission was.

After narrating my story that I had been coming to seek for job, he told me they can never employ me anywhere in Anambra state as a Yoruba man, except the Federal Government employed me and had me transferred there. He told me never to stress myself again on nothing.

From that day, I stopped looking for job there, and started applying for any job I saw its advert in Port Hacourt. I ended up as a bus driver running Onitcha to Awka, or Enugu loading from upper Iweka or boromio hospital junction Nkpor old Rd. I did that for quite some time till I secured a job in Slumberger Trans Amadi Industrial Layout PortHacourt in 1993.... This is my own story of Anambra state

Now come to think of it, these are the same people that will call Lagos a no man's land. These are the people that will be telling us how Tinubu should have or should not have run Lagos state, even when the same Lagos is where they fulfil their dreams. These are the people that will condemn our own Leader while selling Peter Obi to us as the best material that will liberate us all as a Nation. We have several Igbo people telling us their Tinubu stories and how he helped them achieved their dreams, now where is Peter Obi's stories by our Yoruba people in Anambra state?

Until we wake up from our deep slumber to realize that we will be losing our best opportunity to transform Nigeria by rejecting Tinubu who is a selfless leader and a detribalized Nigeria, until we come to the understanding that a leader like Bola Tinubu is very rare in the Nigeria of today, until we all rally round the Jagaban of Africa to make him our next President, our country may continue to wander forever without achieving it's full potential. Any myopic non-Igbo that campaigns for Pyrate Confrataty Occultic Cultist Biafran-Addict like Peter Obi that is always on Black Dress (yet Deceiving gullible Christians) should be ready kiss their Tribal-Pride goodbye because Igbos' number 1 Aim is to Trample on all other Nigerian Tribes to make them feel they are less than Humans. Tell yourselves the Truth, or you Don't know Igbos?! You think they love or value you?! Ask the South-Southerners of how they Took over their Oils, Subjugated them and mercilessly Treated them like 2nd Class Citizens right on their Own Lands throughout Biafran War, they are forever Grateful that Biafra was thwarted because they would have been eternally enslaved by Igbos right on their Fatherland forever. Know this and know Peace.

For a Greater Untribalized Nigeria, Bola Tinubu is the answer.

You gave yourself away as a very lazy fellow and deep seethed liar. You did not get a job in Anambra state, yet you remained there, unmolested for 5 years, worked as a bus driver and made some reasonable money for yourself.

Mr. Liar, after leaving Anambra state, you had 6 SW states to relocate to, including Kwara and Kogi states. Why did you not relocate there, seeing that your people are always accommodating and would give you jobs? Why did you not return to Lagos particularly in search of that job?

You are a very deceitful person, a chronic and shameless liar. Why did you find your way to PH, knowing that it is also an Igbo dominated city?

When you needed that job, was Lagos too far for you to travel to? If you were so hated in the SE, why did you choose to remain there? What was chasing you away from your people? I guess your ways are very dodgy or you tried to use some charm but failed, or you committed a serious offense for which you were on the run.

How many SW graduates have found jobs in the SW states, talk less of graduates from other states? How many from the SE and SS have found jobs so easily? Countless citizens from the SW have jobs and big businesses in the SE and SS. If you go around small villages in the SE and SS, you will hear Yoruba spoken as if it is Yoruba land. Mr. Liar do you not know that?

You love your people and want them to vote for Tinubu a fellow tribesman, yet you worked with the Igbos without harassment. Look at the hypocrisy in your comment. Did you read it at all before posting?
You want “a Greater Untribalized Nigeria”, yet you want the Igbos to be excluded by your people? How can your Tinubu achieve it, with your advise to Yorubas, bypassing the Igbos? How can you ask for votes from the SW and north, calling Nigeria one, while avoiding the SE and SS? A tribalistic person asking for his own person to be voted for to remain in his own ONE NIGERIA.

Please Nigeria does not need tribalistic people like you to remain as one. We vote not on the basis of tribe and religion, but on the basis of belief in the leader to deliver.

Oga people like you make us say Nigeria is ripe to separate. Please remain permanently in you area and leave the SE and SS alone. You are the beggar, who begged for jobs, got one (if that is the truth ever), yet turn to call them names.

You are a complete Muntula.

“ Furthermore, it means that Peter Obi is not the presidential candidate of the LP. It means that as of the 18th of May, Kayode Salako was the Chairman of LP”.

Without Obi’s name where would LP be today? This fellow simply should look before he leaps.

That matter of substitution was solved by Baba Ayo Adebanjo in favour of Vivour Rhodes, while Salvador got the senate ticket. They all agreed to work together. I therefore wonder what’s this man’s problem again.

Now the foolish neighbors have found themselves in prison for thinking it was all a joke. With no one to bail them, how can they get out?

Please pray that you do not experience witchcraft. The African person only thinks of harming his fellow African using supernatural means. One of those means is witchcraft.

It’s very terrible indeed. Getting your passport in Lagos is so expensive. I usually call it the personal shop of immigration officers. If you pay online personally, you wait for ages. They charge between 45k and 60k for 32 pages to get it for you. You also pay between 65k and 75K for 64 pages, 5 years, depending on your bargaining power. It’s 120k and above for 10 years.

What bothers one is the fact that it is far cheaper and easier to get in some states. Presently in Festac, Lagos, there is no booklet. Again you have to wait for months to pick up.

What are their reasons for this clear lopsidedness?

FakeIgboJew:
Congo Jew rat, we keep reading of the most distasteful hate filled wickedness and evil of your people here.

A criminal bent race of selfish materialistic cretins with no single sense of empathy nor conscience.

Nothing less expected from rats from hell like you, who are less on the lower rungs of life. Those who live hopelessly, with commands from their slave masters, begging for bread day and night and yet believe that all is well with them.

You think that you can get away with insulting tribes and people, who have done nothing wrong to you, just like that?

A scumbag, dork, bellend and self-servicer put together, who does not know how to live decently, talking about conscience and empathy.

Only criminals know criminals and a simple search would prove you as one.

Bow that your agama lizard shape head in shame.

What part of this nation is immune from such acts of violence and killing?

“ After perpetrating the crime, the suspect reportedly rushed to the nearest police station and surrendered himself to the police to avoid being lynched by angry mob”.

The idiot feared to face a violent death in the hands of those who obviously would have killed him too. Now his very violent character has terminated his own life and times. He will no longer live in a proper house. He will no longer bother about electricity. He will no longer bother about food. All will be provided for free by government in his new capacity as a prisoner.

Throwback:
I am a Lagos Islander. My family house still stands there in its full glory.

I love how you indicted Obi.

We know Ngige's start point and we know his end point. We also know Tinubu's start point and end point.

Same goes for Obi.

If Ngige could achieve the infrastructural growth and IGR growth from N50m to N450m under 3yrs of rule, Obi should be ashamed that he was crawling from N45m to under N750m with full 8yrs.

I reckon because Ngige had put in the hard work, Obi chose to dance and smile while he saved the 2 Talents to return it to the master in the same value as he had been given?

Peter Obi is mediocre at best.

You gave exactly the response I expected from you. That gave you away as too young and inexperienced to comment on these matters.

Certainly you are not Lagos state? There are too many of your likes who form “I am a Lagos Islander”.
Next you will say I am from Isale Eko, as that is all that you all know. If I say, without conceding, that you are from Lagos state, then you have not for any reason ventured out from your immediate environment. It is a difficult problem for your likes, who think that life begins and ends in your immediate environment. If we ask you how Tinubu’s leadership impacted your life, you will have nothing to say, except to tell us about the experiences of others.

“If Ngige could achieve the infrastructural growth and IGR growth from N50m to N450m under 3yrs of rule, Obi should be ashamed that he was crawling from N45m to under N750m with full 8yrs”.

Were you there? Have you ever been to Anambra state? If you do not have a physical experience of the different periods of government in Anambra state, please do not talk out of ignorance any further.

A national ban will help the country.

Government too must play a more serious role in the transport sector, especially in states with huge populations. Touts and security agents make life difficult for the citizens. A state like Lagos, where touts are glorified, must wake up and ensure that life is made better for the people.

Throwback:
When Tinubu laboured, Lagos monthly IGR grew from N600m to N7b within his 8yrs. When Peter Obi laboured, Anambra monthly IGR that Ngige grew from N50m to N450m under 3yrs, only grew from N450m to less than N700m in 8yrs.

Lagos monthly IGR has since grown to over N45b.

Tinubu laboured to compete with other African countries and Lagos economy is now top5 among African countries, while Anambra IGR was worse than Kogi State under Peter Obi.

Anambra graduates troop to Lagos to find jobs in an infrastructure driven economy, while Anambra with savings is still not topic economy in Africa.

So who exactly laboured in vain?

Get sense small Mr. Parrot. Pra pra pra pra pra.

Certainly you are also not from Lagos state just like the Anambra people that you quoted.

And you were not told that Lagos was the administrative and commercial capital of Nigeria from independence. You were not told that not just Anambra people, other Nigerian citizens from other states migrated to Lagos in its capacity as the federal capital to work and live. You were not told that everyone of those contributed and continue to contribute to the growth of Lagos where the reside and work. Surely you have not ventured beyond Lagos to see how it is in other states, otherwise your opinion about your personal Lagos will not remain the same.

“ Anambra graduates troop to Lagos to find jobs in an infrastructure driven economy, while Anambra with savings is still not topic economy in Africa”.

Very childish with no sense. While you choose to be transfixed in your illusionary Lagos, others venture away from their comfort zones to other states and nations to enjoy themselves. As you cannot leave your small room and parlor with a tiny window, who told you the Nigerians from the SW have not migrated to the SE in search of better lives? Please stop displaying this level of ignorance.

“Tinubu laboured..”. So what did the other governors in Lagos before him do? Dance and smile?

Wake up and look at your political leaders with clearer eyes. Do not vote on the basis of sentiments or tribe, if you want one single/indivisible Nigeria. You cannot have a SW candidate who campaigns in the SW and north, ignoring the SE/SS and expect him to be called the president of Nigeria and vice versa.

Who is he? Who knows him?

Hopefully this one no be Labalaba we dey call imself bird.

Confused people
Shame on PDP and APC

Please talk with some small sense. If you do not have sense at all, please beg someone for some.

The Pastor surely acted because the lady was persecuted senselessly by the hotel management where she worked.

The Pastor has alway responded to those persecuted, not on the basis of politics, but on humanity.

But by the way, were you still in the primary school in 2014 when APC campaigned to remove Jonathan/PDP? Are you suffering from acute forgetfulness? If you were of age in 2014, are you feeling pain that APC is receiving a dose of their own wicked propaganda pill of 2014?

Let me remind you that APC supporters were and remain the most intolerant and violent people in this country.

Mock coffins of Jonathan were made. Jonathan was stoned by APC supporters when he campaigned. BAT called him unprintable names. Buhari threatened that baboons and monkeys would be soaked in blood. It is of common knowledge that APC imported Fulani militia from other countries to start a war if they lost. Today the Fulanis have become the herdsmen killing and kidnapping citizens all over the country. You APC children supported and keep supporting the destruction of whatever is left of the country.


Shame on all of you.

https://pmnewsnigeria.com/2022/09/01/n11-9bn-stolen-under-ex-gov-ahmed-in-kwara-audit-report/?amp=1

Politics at play there. Politicians at this point in Kwara state playing to the gallery and the governor pretending that he has not been looting the treasury.

First he must tell us what has been happening to his security votes, as we all are aware that security votes are the targets and goldmine of all governors for their tenure. Next he must tell us what happens to contracts awarded to friends, family or fronts as they call them. Now that they know that EFCC will be at their necks at the end of their tenure, they devise means of looting public funds with cronies to cover up.

The governor should stop playing the ostrich. We are to wait until after his tenure to find out from the next governor the extent of his own looting.

By the way, now that Saraki and contacts are not in charge, how much has Kwara state developed? We know that it is one of the most underdeveloped states in the country.

Maxymilliano:
Point of correction, Iyorchia Ayu is from Benue and Benue lies in the middle belt and not northern region

Nigeria is divided into the north and south naturally by the rivers. We have always had the north and and south. Politics brought the middle belt. Irrespective of that, Iyorcha Ayu is from the northern part of Nigeria, just as Saraki is from the northern part because Kwara state where he hails from is situated in the north.

“Now you begin to look at what is going on; the Peter Obi factor is as if he is trying to go through the church and make it look as if he is driving the Christians into politics. I do not believe that the church should actively go into politics because that is not their calling”.

What an unlearned comment from the governor of a state. One is forced to ask Okowa what he meant by church. Is the church not populated by people? Does he look at the church as just a building? Does Okowa not expect members of his own church in Asaba to vote for him to become the Vice President? What are his fears about Peter Obi’s campaign? How is it that they are all seeming troubled about Obi’s style?

Does Okowa understand what it means to mobilize voters? Does he still live in the past where mobilization meant giving bribes and using thugs to muzzle legitimate voters at the polling booths? How does Okowa expect the old electoral malpractices to continue endlessly?

The northern politicians campaign in Mosques and use even children as voters. You cry after losing to them that there were child voters. If they can do so, why can’t Christian candidates campaign in churches? What is Okowa’s problem with Obi? To Okowa it is not the calling of Christians to participate in politics, but rather remain passive and watch while some reckless persons lead them.

Okowa should please face Wike that he cowardly stabbed in the back to achieve his goal. He should tell the southern governors how after their meeting in Asaba last year and agreement to secure ONLY southern presidency for 2023, he negotiated with Atiku to become the candidate. While he ruined the PDP southern candidates chances with his greed, APC governors ensured theirs worked.

Jagbajantis intete.

But Wike said that he did not sue the party.

At 21?

Favoured with a kind and loving boss. Well trusted by his boss and allowed to sleep in his boss’s house. Had access to the boss’s car and phones. Stole the man’s 75k, most probably by hacking the account. Eventually stabbed his boss in the back. Now he ruined it all, because he had hatched the plan long ago.

If the man employs another youth like him and does not give that person such privileges, they will call him an evil boss.

The boy’s case is like the case of a man who brought a dangerous snake into his home in the name of a pet. Everyday the man would kiss the snake in the mouth publicly, thinking that he had a good relationship with the animal. One day the animal bit the man in the mouth killing the man.

Thankfully the useless youth was caught. His ambition to travel abroad by dubious means was stopped. Now he will take a short trip to Kirikiri prison and spend quality time there, thinking about his wrong move. Maybe the stay in Kirikiri prison would help reset his brain.

However if he ends up becoming an armed robber after his prison experience, na him sabi be that.

C O Y G

Let’s do the needful by voting APC out of power.

The president himself in his campaign said subsidy was fraud. Today, what do we experience? More debt through subsidy payments.

They promised to fix the refineries and build new ones. Na lie. Nigerians groan more every morning.

Now one baba has promised to continue where the other baba ends. Na wah for APC sef.

Why not mention the name of the person? As a man with his facts, why not say it is so so and so person, with proof?

Shame on Reno Omokri.

Na wah.

Why live in an area where you are not safe? Why delay with relocating from the north? Why live in an area where you cannot express yourself and feel comfortable?

In all the foolish men watched the video, fantasized on it and set out to stone the lady to death in the name of religion.
