This is repulsive and a slap to made up cultural laws

The 1979 edict says only prince born by either a benin or itsekiri woman could be made king but none of this prince's made the requirement as all their mothers are Yorubas, the iyasere should have occupied till the prince's heir makes the requirement

Now the stool has been defied and no respect for the royal law

What comes first.....the rules or the human?

Honestly speaking, in Nigeria if you want fresh milk, you have to go and suck the cow yourself.

Even the milk have expired before manufacturer release them to the market.

If you want anything fresh in Nigeria, be ready to produce them yourself!

Your question 2 is like changing the question papers when all students have passed question 1. You are changing the goal post on the middle of the exam. You must be......M. Yakub!

Obinoscopy:
1. A recruiting firm advertised for a job and people from 36 States and a Territory applied. The recruiting firm was tasked to recruit at least 25% of people from at least two thirds of the States and the Territory. If there are 100 people in each of the States and 120 people from the Territory, what's the minimum number of people the firm should at least employ?

A. 600
B. 620
C. 625
D. 630
E. None of the Above

2. In addition to the requirements above, the recruiting firm was told the Territory is also to be considered as a State. Thus the requirement reads thus: recruit at least 25% of people from at least two thirds of the States and the Territory. And the Territory is to be considered a State. What's the minimum number of people the firm should at least employ?

A. 600
B. 620
C. 625
D. 630
E. None of the Above


Please show your workings. Anyone who shows very clear workings and gets the answer has solved the 25% electoral requirement quagmire that is confusing many people.

Answer: The case is in court!

It was a thing then. Sold ours in 2014

You people sold a vintage car? Nigerian don't know fashion at all. I can buy that VW for $1m.

Just cleanup and maintain good hygiene.

INEC and double standards!

This is Nigeria!

TemplarLandry:
She looks smashable.

You are a reflection of the Nigerian society!

Info about the identity of the stowaway?

Can we pause and think?
Is this the way Nigeria will continue to happen to us?



RIP

Olatara:
Patience and care.

Exactly. 1 cold drink for you.

There's something young girls see in much older men that young guys don't have.

Madam as much as I really want you to win, I don't think it's your time to rule Adamawa state. Better Luck next time.

The Rec officer is really high on some cheap osogbo Weed..... Msheeww

Thought again. People just dey think without thinking cap.

Do we conduct election or selection in Nigeria?

I ask are we conducting election or selection?

TakeNigeriaBack:
In SE Peter Obi got 95% and the 20 other presidential candidates got 5%. Okoros are electoral criminals.

Isn't that what makes it funny?

That's why I ask if we conduct election or selection! Only gawd can save Nigeria.

Funny result.
1 man getting 90% and what the remaining 5 can get is 10% in total.

I still ask, do we conduct election or selection in Nigeria?

My problem with our law makers is that 4years will come and go and they will still not deem it fit to re-write that part in a simple, clear and unambiguous manner.

Bahamas95:
Being hygienic or mindful of what you eat has nothing to do with your financial status.

There're some food I can't buy with my money no matter how hungry I am, I would rather wait till I get home before I eat......I don't fancy eating outside.

Poverty is not measured from financial standpoint alone.

Kobojunkie:
1. Compare that to the atrociously poor infrastructure that is in Nigeria. Come on!

You just jump on a line....We have a trail of discussion. How will you understand our line of discussion?

They said when two adults are talking, a kid will ask if he can open his mouth! (Chinese Adage).

Can't you do lens search?

Bahamas95:
Una go take una money buy sickness chop one-day......I wonder how some people be sef, nothing dey irritate dem.

You should understand that there's poverty in the land. The gap between you and who you're trying to compare may be like heaven and earth.

Isn't it good? I don't understand the point you're making now!

Tats:
The tax is not all 40% for everyone. It varies in the UK from basic rate of 20% to high rate of 45% depending on what you earn.

I do not feel like a 4th class citizen and neither am i treated as such, so this is not a true statement.

My general drift on tax is that my people can absolutely escape tax in Nigeria, let alone paying 20% or whatever least is applicable in the UK.

I do not say specifically "you" in person are treated as 4th class citizens. The generality of view portends to that. Of-course there will always be an Oobama and a Ritchy S. every once in a long while. You get me now!

I feel ashame everytime, I visit a pub/club, especially white dominated and the only sit our boys can buy there is in the toilet to be issuing out tissues and spray perfumes to collect the leftovers.

For a first class citizen like you, you may not understand what these lads were complaining about. In over 20years I've been visiting the UK, there's always one advice I give people....."whatever you do there, do something back home". Many actually want to come back home, but because they haven't return anything back home and there's nothing to show for all their years of staying abroad, it becomes double jeopardy for them. They are the ones we call Uncle Jandor!

Metrofox:
Plot twist: The reason you guys "enjoy" social life in Nigeria is because Nigeria doesn't work. Imagine not being able to answer calls at work here or as a civil servant not being able to ask people to wait on a queue just for you to be eating lunch or gisting with colleagues.

Not being able to show off at parties by spraying cash or showing up with police escort blasting guns and siren.

Nothing like connection for job from one uncle or senator..

The list goes on and on
Reason am well...

It's two different world. You cannot eat your cake and have it.

Here in the UK, virtually all basic services are available and people pay heavily for it. Back home, our people can avoid paying for almost everything and still survive.

It's very possible to live in the UK for 20years and not have a savings of 1000Pounds because you may not even need it to start with. And also it could be very difficult to save up when you consider cost of living.

The regular weekend and night flexing we enjoy in Nigeria is almost non-existence here, partly because people have to work like modern slaves to be able to buy a pint of Foster beer or Stella Artois for 4 to 6pounds depending on locations. With 6pounds, you know how many crate or bottles of Lager that will fetch in Nigeria!

Even their own premiership, they don't get to watch the Saturdays 3PM matches due to their "football blackout rules". In Nigeria, all the matches are aired.

We quite embrace one another in Nigeria, while in the UK, it's all man for himself. This can be traced to culture though! Our culture is well defined, natural, respectful and to some extent quite organized in nature as compared to the UK which is dotted with large sprinkles of nationals everywhere and are often perceived/treated as forth-class citizens.

Tax: Trust me, Oyinbo people are so smart that not less than 40% tax are collected from every taxable individuals. Nigeria tax system is still very poor that more than 60% are not in government tax net. So there's always that money available for social life.

Suffering & Smiling: Most times it doesn't take money to have a social life. We seems to understand that quite well in Nigeria that on Saturday, you can just wear your Ankara and attend almost any party and enjoy yourself.

The differences in the two worlds are quite much, I can't enumerate them all. But one thing is certain, you can't eat your cake and still have it! Nigeria maybe bad in some areas, but certainly good in some too. I personally can't trade Nigeria for the UK having seen both worlds. That's why I always say the people that enjoyed abroad are the people that have the funds to visit and go back to their country.

Tadadobe:
Exactly. Very depressing places to be. I pray Nigeria work in our time

The depressing is as a result of lack of money. Oyinbo people are smart. They keep taking unsuspecting foreigners to do all their jobs and take nothing less than 40% tax on their earnings. You know if every taxable Nigerians were taxed, our own wailing go pass these people.

8 out of 10 japa-ed people will not be able save 1000 Pounds even after living in the UK for 20years! That's a fact....forget about the paparrazi and buga that dey do on social media.

They are fourth-class citizens in most these western countries.

Marriage is by choice, not force.

Nigerians never realized that people don't have to get married!

When does poverty becomes competition?
Individual's definition of poverty is different.

BAT shouldn't make a mistake inviting OBI in a public where both will be present because the hailing will dismantle him

Did you ever see Atiku and Buhari together in the last 8years?

There's always an in-house lady or woman that gives husbands charity services.
