How can you as a guy say you don't have time to persuade a girl, we are talking about a girl you perceived to meet your criteria here and not some random Olosho walking and stalking the street for one time meal

It is in a makeup of a real man to have the feel of conquering something. It's either we have men who are now timid, weak, non confrontational or a man who only believe that only money makes a man.

How would you feel as a man to walk up to a lady and before you say I like you, she is smiling and saying am all yours? Only girls that are secretly positioned to steal your destiny act like that, and this includes the Olosho mamas

In the real animal domineering kingdom male birds dance, show muscles and some even fight to death for the love of the female.

All I read are guys saying that they woo a girl just to fv*k...if that's all that you think about all day long as a gee then something is wrong somewhere. Money can get you a good damn s*x, a good looking cutie, a red lips curvecious anatos, but not a hearty love.

And if you are afraid of heart break as a man, then your journey into the world of manhood has not began.......be a man that conquer.
That was 1935
Time has changed now. This is 2021. The monopoly business ladies play back in those days has been crashed by several factors. So many new entrants in the market looking for clients....genuine or not is a different topic.

Did south build a political party when obj became president ?

Did north build when yaradua became president

Did south south when Jonathan became president ?

Truth of the mater is there is absolutely nothing an igbo man would do to be loved by nigerians except he goes against his people even at that they won't still like him ...ask Joe igbokwe as rochas

You all fear igbo domination deep inside all of you

If they can achieve all this without politics what would they do with political power ...they already dominate market what do they want in politics ...that's the mindset of most nigerians

Yoruba fear igbo man being president would install and igbo governor of lagos

North fear igbos might revenge for biafran war


Say the truth stop asking Igbos to do what no tribe has done before
The point is not about who fears who. It's about the current political structure. You will agree with me that if a candidate is not coming from any of the main dominant parties, that candidate is just on his own.

Any aspirant from SE can come from any of the two main party, but it is not going to be automatic which is the joker the SE don't have atm. You need other region to be able to achieve that goal. And on which platform could that be possible if not currently the APC and PDP?

That is my point. Even if the entire SE rally round a single candidate, without the constitutional spread they cannot produce the President even if he polled the highest vote. That is why you see parties merging and spreading. As APC and PDP stands right now, it's a risky risk for them.

They may technically announce zoning, but that spurious intent will be robbed during primaries by the party officials. And very definitely by other party at the general election.....This is why the SE is such a risky zone to bank on for now.

The saving grace would be if both APC and PDP present an Igbo candidate for President which would mean Nigerians are sandwiched between two Igbo man. Exactly what happened when we had no choice than to pick either Olu Falae or OBJ.

But if you leave Nigerians the open ended choice with this CURRENT POLITICAL STRUCTURE, it's almost impossible for an Igbo man to get there as it would be too risky for any of leading party. Remember, no party wants to lose out.

My analysis though!

Igbochief001:
Now yorubas are talking ...if u must take igbo turn at least present someone that we can't reject

Igbos all over the world would support Dr. Akinwumi Adesina ...you know why ? Because Igbos support u no matter where u are from ...if and only if you are good

No other major tribe in Nigeria can do that only igbos

Bring okonji iwela and they would start looking for fault

Bring peter obi same

But we don't really care ...just be good abeg
No tribe owns any turn as far as constitution is concerned. Zoning is a party thing. To be very honest with you, what the SE needs to do is to first create a formidable party whose ideology will resonate with their people and same can then be spread to dominate other region or merge with other parties from other region.

As the current political structure stands, I don't see APC or PDP giving them the Presidential slot. An Igbo candidate may come out to contest a primary under APC or PDP, but the automatic slot, he will not get. If he then wins the primary, it is a different issue. Even BAT will not get auto ticket but may get block support which will boost his chance at the primary.

It would have been so nice if APGA spread well in the SE and also manages to capture some other regions as well. In that case, it would be so easy to merge up and grow and have a good chance at delivering the President the SE so yearn for.

Even if there's zoning from either party, the "no auto-ticket" will defeat the intended aim as the party either APC or PDP would not want to lose out. The zone remains the best zone where vice president can be shopped for either party depending on who picks their presidential ticket.

The "political scores" has to be well calculated. It's really a risky risk to take for both ruling party.

Another one: BOMBSHELL

NUHU RIBADU, FORMER EFCC BOSS,

WROTE-;

Bandits”” were created by Gen Mohammadu Buhari Rtd to oust Jonathan
Bandits are not Boko Haram nor Herdsmen

It all started in April 2014 when Mohammadu Buhari assembled his ardent supporters, promoters and strategists to determine how to remove President Jonathan Goodluck. Prominent amongst them were El-Rufai, Gen Danbazo (Rtd)……..

A decision was reached to consult Miyatti Allah cattle breeders association for assistance to boot Jonathan Goodluck out of office. Consequently, the National Chairman of Miyatti Allah was engaged to bring in foreign mercenaries. Within a month, 2,000 Fulani fighters were brought in from Mali, Senegal, Niger Republic, Chad, Libya to name but a few. Further 4,000 fighters were stationed in Niger and Chad on standby.

On arrival, they were assembled in Kaduna under the sponsorship of El Rufai and were addressed by various Northern Leaders including the Sultan of Sokoto, Gen. Muhammadu Sa’ad Abubakar (Rtd) etc.

Specifically, Gen Buhari in his address told the fighters that “the British handed Nigeria over to us the Fulanis at independence. The land (Nigeria) belongs to us. We must reclaim what belongs to us.”He added that at the event that Jonathan Goodluck worn the election, the Fulani machinery must fight until they regain control of the country. He assured them that the Nigerian Army was behind them.

The mercenaries received initial training from the Commandant of the Nigerian Defence Academy and were sent to 6 camps in Ekiti State, Benue State, Katsina State, Kaduna State, Zamfara State and Borno State.

In the camps, brand new pick-up trucks, generators etc were provided them. Nigerian Airforce helicopters were used to provide them essential supplies like food, water, drinks and even arms and ammunitions.

Evidently, Jonathan Goodluck lost the election in 2015 through a well orchestrated election organised by INEC under a Fulani Chairman, Professor Jega. Gen Buhari (Rtd) was sworn in as the president. This saw the emergence of a Fulani president through a dodgy election hence the planned violent war was averted.

Contrary to expectation, the mercenaries in the various camps were abandoned, no more food and essential supplies. The relationship between Miyatti Allah, El Rufai (now a State Governor) and Dambazo broke down. El Rufai arrogantly declared that they were not needed anymore and they should go back. Consequently, the killings in Kaduna commenced as a warning to El Rufai but it did not bother him. He declared that he had paid the people carrying out the killings and they did not want to stop. The Nigerian police did not bother to call Gov El Rufai to give further clarification on this.

The Mercenary at the various camps decided to go about to find food for themselves by robbing people, going into farm lands and kidnapping. Miyatti Allah made several efforts to contact El Rufai and Dambazzo to appeal to them to provide money to return these fighters to where they came from. All efforts proved abortive. The mercenaries at this point vacated their organised camps and took to crime.

The criminal gangs which emanated from these mercenaries were at this point described as “Bandits” in order to differentiate them from other notorious terrorist groups like Fulani Herdsmen, Boko Haram etc.

Following the untold destruction and killings which the Bandits carried out especially in Katsina and Zamfara, the Northern leaders in conjunction with officials of Nigerian Government requested Miyatti Allah to intervene and remove the Bandits from Nigeria. Miyatti Allah returned demanding 150 Billion Naira to settle the Bandits and evacuate them. The Government turned the offer down and restricted itself to the payment of 100 Billion Naira.

Shamefully Godwin Emefiele raised 100 Billion Naira for the settlement as a condition for his re-appointment as the Central bank Governor.

Miyatti Allah collected the money and purportedly distributed it but nothing changed.

In a bid to control the damage, President Buhari directed that RUGA initiative be setup to create colonies for these fighters in every state in Nigeria.

My questions are:
1. Should Nigerian communities accommodate these criminal elements?
2. Why has El Rufai not been called to clean up the mess he created?
3. Does this explain the President Buhari’s silence?
4.Is this conspiracy of the North gone wrong?
Nigerians think for yourselves?

Releasing these videos are wrong. How are we sure he wasn't begging under duress? A crime has to be proven beyond reasonable doubt before a conviction can be made. Let him be charged to Court and let the law take it's course. Infact releasing stuff like this is prejudicial to the matter as the accused has been technically charged to court. Let's stop Media trials please
You are right. Nigerians don't know the implications of prejudicial comments and trials.
For this reason alone is why I'm in support of the information/social media bill.
Every single person that carries a smart phone think he can say or post whatever they like. In Japan minors were committing suicides simply because someone post something bad or bully them online.
People must descern and control what they do and how they do it online. The internet space is pretty much part of our life now and we must be civil in it.

Men are not scarce, the genuine men are only seeking for ladies with value.

It's not about you being beautiful my sister [color=TEAN]ever noticed that cheap products have the highest customer base in markets??[/color]
Forget the saying that bad girls get married every Sunday. We all know the divorce rate and troubles in every home nowadays.

[color=TEAN]Men are still in the olden era.[/color] Forget 21st century, men are in search of women with worth.


[color=TEAN]Develop yourself first [/color] cause if you don't, you'll depend on men for anything and definitely you know that'll mean opening your legs at any given opportunity.

[color=TEAN]It's your body, you're free to use it any how you deem fit.[/color]
But, you just know that men love ladies with value, ladies with goals & future ambitions, ladies who exercise authority over their bodies and doesn't allow mere words move them.

At age 19, I had suitors coming to see my dad. I mean, men with [color=TEAN]clean rides.[/color]
I was definitely young and I had no big ass nor boobs.

Then, I began to wonder what drew this men to me?
Till I got to discover that I disciplined myself that way. Any man that comes to me, must be in for something serious else, he leaves the relationship disappointed.
My only prayer now is that I get to make a good choice when the time is right.


To those ladies complaining of not meeting any man for marriage,
[color=TEAN]WHATS YOUR VALUE?[/color]
You need to set rules and boundaries when it comes to relationships.
Mind you, the FIRST thing a man will look out for when he starts with you is your body.
[color=TEAN]THE BALL DURING ALL THIS IS ACTUALLY IN YOUR COURT.[/color]
Are you in for sex as well? If no, make it known and make sure you close those legs. Practice, even if you must cause that will be your only saving grace.

[color=TEAN]Develop yourself[/color]
You might not be like Ngozi Okonjo Iweala but, make yourself a woman with worth.
Place yourself even far above your own value. Na men go dey rush you ooo

Men are not scarce. The question is, are you a liability or a woman of substance??
Very nice write-up.

But why do good girls turn bad? I'm sure you must have heard that saying before?

Nobody ever thought Linda I. was baddest until she got kpenched out of wedlock.

The truth is when it comes to relationship and marriage. You must pray very well over it.

Most presumed good girls change their attitudes when the clock has reached 10pm.

See, just go for Infinix. All those altitude sensors and barometric sensors someone was mentioning in favour of Samsung are not value for money. Check 98% of people using high-end phones like Samsungs and Iphones they dont even use 70% of the facilities the phone has to offer.

We are talking about phones for purpose use here, and someone is talking about Iris/retina scan (aside from locking/unlocking what else will you use iris for), Geomagnetism (You wan study magnetism or the phone will supply you 5kw of electricity) Wireless Charging (You will still need to connect the wireless sensor to socket) Water resistant (Unless you are stupid, u wan go swim with the phone?)

.....Ah Oyinbo smart pass us I swear. Next, they will tell you they've added mosquito repellant or food downloading app/software to Samsung and jack up the price by additional $250.

My advise is first remove all the specs and so called special add-ons that samsung boast of that you know you will never-ever need or use...then place the two side-by-side and weigh which one offers you good value for the money.

If you are working hard for your money and value every penny of your sweat.....Go for Infinix.

As much as you're correct, you forgot we don't have a database of our citizens. You don't seem to remember that this who applied for National ID card haven't gotten it 4/5 years later.

My question is, was this the state of those countries you love to point out before they started tagging their cows??... A good thing done in a wrong time becomes a bad thing... Bible says, "Don't let your good be evil spoken of"

But if they say there'll be no money budgeted for it, no special agency will be created, rather the they'll make use of the ministry of agriculture workers, agricultural extension department, Livestop production staff, e.t.c, trust me, Nigerians won't have issue with it... Oya, touch your heart and tell me if you believe thats what they'll do.
I don't understand where we differ. I think you just butteressed my point. I did say it may not be a pressing issue for us, but it is one of the multiple solutions to farmers/herders and cattle rustling problems.

My concern is the way people just start comparing "apples and mangoes"... Twitter in Ghana, Amazon in South Africa. Database for Cows in Nigeria. If those countries are having general insecurity issues. Mega Corporations like the above mentioned may not consider them too.

We have myriads of issues on our hands, and every suggestions at solving them shouldn't be waved away or mocked at. Everything we yearn for in this country is hinged on "security".

And I quote the word "Security" again. It's so vast and so deep. Without it, even the little we have will be destroyed.

I don't know why this doesn't seems to be a good development to many people. In most developed countries, RFID tags are been used to track animals. It's a positive suggestion the senator made in my own view.

If you say we have other pressing needs above creating databases for animal is understandable. We are still a developing nation. But to rubbish the suggestion in totality makes me worried the way Nigerians reasons.

It reminds me when former Minister of Agriculture, Akinwunmi Adeshina proposed Mobile Phones to farmers in 2003. Many mocked the decision. They didn't see how that will help farmers.

They didn't see how that will prevent 3rd parties and middlemen from highjacking and inflating the price of fertilizers and improved seeds. They didn't see that developing the rural communities.... so much they didn't see.

They didn't see the overall picture which the Minister and his cabinet must have thoroughly considered having taking several feedbacks from farmers.

Neutralobserver:
To understand why they have not been able to pay tax between 2012-18, see the PWC report on financing the power sector in Nigeria, relased in 2018

Basically, power companies like Kaduna DISCO until recently were charging for power below its cost of production perkwh, and as a result they were running at a loss since their founding and could not make enough of a profit to break even, talkless of paying taxes.

See the report here...page 18 is where the main detail I refer to is.
Only few would understand this. I know for a fact that electricity is really very expensive. Same as every other energy.

Many people always think Nigeria is a very rich country, but the reality is we are a Pathetically poor nation by all standard.

Is it someone that's earning 18k a month you will ask to pay 5k monthly for electricity?
