There's no food on earth that doesn't have side effects when taken too much.

Even water has its effects

Longevity is a genetic makeup and grace

Urgent1Million:
Any success that does not involve money should avoid me abeg.
Make una no let motivational speakers carry una go where una no know oo

Please reverse that statement,your thoughts are only built on the values of your upbringing and your environment

Money is important and is being regarded as a success in life,but don't forget that money cannot buy everything.

Therefore money is now your God

That being said let me list some life successes

1. Long life
2 Good health
3.Beign educated
4 Getting married and having children

DrRasheed:
Out of school doesn't necessarily translate to poor and destitutes. The narrative about school being key to success is no longer sellable in the north

Success is not all about money..

Being educated itself is a mark of success

iwaeda:
Do Youths care about themselves, they will always defend their oppressors.

Do they have choices from the environment they were born and raised?

Nappsy:
FX is sustainable with great skill and understanding of how the market works.
Skill acquisition, agro and empowerment projects are best bets actually

It is not,FX is just a side hustle.
It is not among the top 20 digital skills in the world.
Is that what the government want to empower the youths,
.
This is to say the least disappointing

Nappsy:
So FX is gambling? Ask questions if you don’t know stop spilling stuffs in ignorance please.

forex training is not an empowerment because it is not a sustainable skill that can improve the lives of the Nigerian youth..

This government doesn't care about the youths of this country.

Their intentions is to further improvirise and confuse them,so that their children whom they sent abroad to get quality education will come back and start from where they stopped

It's a ring, they will never empower the Nigerian youths with good and sustainable skills,they only use them as thugs to their own advantages.

columbus007:
Women need so many things, so if they can't get it, they can do many things, that's why they steal. 😔

Not only women but all humans, their wants are insatiable but if you're discipline and contented with what you have, you will have less problems

They are just being greedy to meet up with societal expectations

Ruke1990:
Apart from the Igbos, the minority tribes somehow beats the Yoruba and Hausa hands down when it comes to education. If you live in ekiti, ondo, osun, Ibadan and Ogun you will understand the quality of education in the west has fallen with majority struggling to sustain conversation in English, poor political permutations, poverty and poor basic amenities. Many in the south west so not know the geopolitical zones were states in Nigeria can be found. They don't know anything outside Yoruba land or Yoruba language.

You are correct,The legacy Awolowo left in the south west could not be sustained by their greedy and self serving leaders.

The south west is now behind in education in Nigeria

psalmsjob:
It's plainly the hand work of those Igbo selling spare parts but nobody wants to say it....

Is it only the Ibos that sells spare parts in Lagos state, the Yorubas and other tribes deals on spare parts too.

TRUTHaDDICTED:
If all the parts are important, and if it's about vandalism, what stops them from taking away other parts that they had already loosen, why only the nuts?

They seems to be taking them bits by bits, they've loosen the bolt and not, the next step is to remove the other parts.

It's looks like,it's not a job they can finish in one fell swap.

Verita:
People should know when to stop. What is this for God's sake

This is nauseating and a degradation of womanhood.

The mod should delete this post

TRUTHaDDICTED:
Which vandalizers are you talking about? Apart from the bolts did you see any other removed there? Can't you see that' that's a deliberate trap aimed to incurre casualties on a target train and or onboard passengers.

All parts of a rail track are important.

providencia:
You buy transformer you deploy security
You build bridge You deploy security
You build railway You deploy security
You build road you deploy security.
What do nigerians really want?
Can that be sustainable? .

I

Why did you put door in your house

When making payments to a new account it can request for face verification to be sure if you're the one making the payment.

I don't think it's annoying, it's for your own good as they are protecting your account

Vandalizers at work without thinking of the consequences

Imagine,if a train has ran on that rail at a top speed,lives and properties would have been wasted

Government should employ security to guard the rail tracks,since these criminals has shifted their attention there.

It is the duty of all Nigerians to protect government properties by reporting any suspected criminal to the police.

But I understand that everyone cannot have the same level of knowledge.
You may be knowledgeable is some areas that I was not when I was your age.

You will understand when the time comes, I hope you won't be too old by then...
For now just go to church or mosque and worship God through the various channels available to you.
Leave the topic of the extraterrestrial and Divine beings to the adults

extraterrestrial can only be accessed through the spirit and not physical body.

As a human, you have to use your brain to reason, expecially if you are leaned..

These are medieval tales that has no root or reference

For centuries, ancient texts and secret scrolls have whispered about the Nephilim—towering hybrids born of the union between divine beings and human women. But what if these beings… never truly vanished?

These are fairly tales, Spirit and human cannot mate unless through dreams and that cannot produce an offspring

During Abacha regime, Nigeria was worse off. The economy was bad and brutal. How come Nigerians deviced alternatives to cooking stoves if the economy was good? They even named the stove after Abacha. For those of us here familiar with the charcoal like stove that you have to load up with sawdust instead of charcoal.

Abacha and his cronies looted the country dry. Nobody can change that narative including you madam.

Kerosene was scarce, Nigerians now resort to the use of (Abacha stove).

China is their new colonial master.

Yes,China has taken hold of the African continent

They knew it inside out

Imagine, Angola,an oil producing country is the highest debtor to china in Africa

China's financial involvement in Africa has grown significantly, focusing on infrastructure-oriented loans.
The Chinese Loans to Africa Database tracks loan agreements from 2000 to 2023, showing trends in lending amounts and loan dynamics.
Angola leads as the top borrower, repaying loans through oil-backed mechanisms for reconstruction needs.

The Chinese Loans to Africa Database, compiled by Boston University’s Global Development Policy Center, provides a comprehensive record of loan agreements between China and African countries over a 13-year period, from 2000 to 2023.

It reveals not only the total loan amounts but also the number of individual loan agreements signed between African countries and Chinese lenders.

After several years of decline, Chinese lending to Africa increased in 2023 the first rise since 2016. This recent uptick shows a shift in Beijing’s strategy toward projects with clearer financial viability, as China becomes more selective with its lending.

Below is a ranking of the ten African countries with the highest total debt to China, based on the cumulative loan amounts and the number of loans recorded from 2000 to 2023.

While the growing debt to China shows Africa’s dependence on external capital, these loans have enabled infrastructure improvements that Western financiers often hesitate to fund
While the growing debt to China shows Africa’s dependence on external capital, these loans have enabled infrastructure improvements that Western financiers often hesitate to fund
Rankings of top 10 African countries by debt to China
Rank Country Total Loan Amount (USD)
1 Angola $46.0 billion
2 Ethiopia $14.5 billion
3 Egypt $9.7 billion
4 Kenya $9.6 billion
5 Nigeria $9.6 billion
6 Zambia $9.5 billion
7 South Africa $6.9 billion
8 Sudan $6.3 billion
9 Ghana $6.1 billion
10 Cameroon $5.9 billion

Angola tops the list, borrowing $46 billion from China through 270 loans. Much of this debt stems from post-civil war reconstruction efforts, particularly in the oil and infrastructure sectors. Angola’s model of repaying loans with crude oil became one of the earliest examples of resource-backed Chinese lending on the continent.

Ethiopia comes second, with $14.5 billion borrowed via 66 agreements, highlighting the country’s deep reliance on Chinese funds for its railways, power projects, and telecommunications infrastructure.

Key developments like the Addis Ababa–Djibouti Railway have been financed almost entirely through Chinese lending.

Egypt, Kenya, and Nigeria follow closely, each holding debts between $9.5 and $9.7 billion. Egypt’s loans have supported transportation, electricity, and real estate projects, while Kenya’s financing was pivotal in constructing the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR).

Nigeria, similarly, has used Chinese funds for rail, road, and power initiatives.

Zambia’s debt of $9.5 billion comes from a notably high 82 loans, the largest number in the top ten. This suggests frequent borrowing, likely for smaller-scale or diversified infrastructure efforts.

The remaining countries, South Africa, Sudan, Ghana, and Cameroon, each owe over $5.9 billion, reflecting years of engagement across transport, energy, and public service sectors.

The growing debt to China shows Africa’s dependence on external capital for development. On one hand, Chinese loans have enabled tangible infrastructure improvements that traditional Western financiers often hesitate to fund.

On the other hand, the continent faces mounting concerns about debt distress, limited fiscal space, and vulnerability to external shocks.

Living alone in the city should not be on the list. Replace it with, "Being a single mother".

A career lady with a good job can live alone in the city, there's nothing wrong with it

Genetic traits cannot be erased , it's in the blood and inside your bones,

If you noticed it,you can only control it through discipline

Peter Obi should stop this hypocrisy.
