EDGEof2MORO: na you go marry woman wey need to buy hair when she no get cancer. I can never marry a girl that is so insecure about her natural appearance. it is a huge red flag! if she can not be satisfied with the hair she was born with, she will never be saisfied with anything in this life even if she go meet that rich man wey don dey seduce am.
oladipuposadeeq: not just south even in the Western or Eastern part but can you just imagine the atrocities that these set of people get away with. The way they think is just outrageous.
By south, he meant southern Nigeria, which include: southeast, southwest and south-south
Farmsolution: That is why violence persist in the north. You arrested only 26 for puttings laws into their own hands and killing a senior police officer ? If you take drugs are you not meant to be put under control ? Well it's another opportunity to keep rano local government free of thugs. Don't miss this chance, tame them immediately.
You overlook the fact that they killed a suspect in their custody extra-judicially
Do you want the youths to start rationalizing and justifying the killing as some of you did in the Ibadan incident?
Police brutality is getting out of hand all over the country and it needs to be curtailed.
I like as they received the immediate consequences of their rascality over there in Kano. Let's hope some vital lessons can be gleaned from the incident.
Mannyq124: I have been thinking a lot lately. But one thought that stands out the most is, how the parental background of a person plays a huge and long lasting role in his or her life. Like most billionaires and millionaires from every corner of the world are either born into wealth or a very affluent family. A perfect example is the Walton family. Even in Nigeria today, the so called "self made" entrepreneurs and people of status, are always a product of affluent families or high-income parents. Now the question that desperately begs for an answer is, how can one come from a poor background and beat the odds to become a high-income earner or averagely rich. Please don't tell me it's about hard work and grace, because I have seen people who work very hard and are religious, but still find it hard to break free from poverty. The only feasible option I can agree with is talent, but in a country like Nigeria where singing is the only talent that sells, what other option is available? And even at that, how many people can sign or have the privilege to harness their singing career.
Ps: I am a graduate from a public university in Nigeria, and I'm still job hunting, hence my reason for putting this out there, because honestly speaking, there's no breakthrough for an average Nigerian without a solid parental/family backing.
It's very difficult to make a breakthrough from that kind of background, unfortunately. One of the things people with such background do is to be intentional right from their secondary education, work hard, become intelligent, get into a course/skill that's sellable and find a way to travel out of the country to one where his qualities pay.
Don't mind Nigerians and grace(I've never met a non-Africa who used that term); it's just one of the bye-products of our religiousness and superstitiousness. There's no such thing as grace.
Hezzyluv: Truth be told, It's a honor for him to meet Mr. president. Hate Tinubu or love him, same goes to over 90% of us here when privilege to see him one on one.
Speak for yourself and your people.
What's the honour or privilege in meeting someone like him?
I do not hope to meet someone like that man, even if he is God, and i do not see any honour or privilege in meeting him.
If i happen to run into him, i won't even look at him, let alone greeting or shaking him.
columbus007: The government of the day should do something about it immediately naso e dey take start, they are very unprofessional.
The problem with being led by someone with a criminal record and questionable character is that those working under him will act lawlessly and with impunity.
That's exactly what we're seeing today with the security agents under this current regime. When the head is rotten, nothing in the rest of the body will remain salvageable
mysticwarrior: So native Americans are not Americans? German Jews that were slaughtered were not citizens of Germany?
Yes, those natives were not yet citizens of America as at that time. They were eliminated so America could be created
German Jews were migrants from the Middle East who left during the reign of the islamic Ottoman Empire. So, technically speaking, they were not Germans
Gerrard59: I'm glad this comment is the first so everyone gets to see it. This puts to end the claim that Nigerians have to be prayerful for the country to prosper. And if we mean the Christian form of prayer, why are China and Japan prosperous? Are they Christians?
The countries he listed didn't slaughter their own citizens, and so don't fit into the Op's perspective.
whitestar01: They don't have knowledge of history except that of the bible.
We know those who know nothing else other than what their ku ran says
If you guys actually knew anything about history, you wouldn't be counting the history of the Jews from 1948 and forgot to remember that the people the Romans were ruling in Jerusalem, judea, Samaria, etc, before the 7th century were the Jews and not any palestinian??
[quote author=mysticwarrior post=135499087]The Germans slaughtered 6 million Jews and 27 million Soviets during WW2 yet they are still thriving. The US slaughtered millions of native Americans, and obliterated hundreds of thousand innocent Japanese citizens when they dropped the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombs and yet they flourish in all areas. The French and Belgians massacred In Congo and other African countries. The Japanese committed genocide in China, Turkey slaughtered thousands of Albanians. All these countries are doing very well.[/quote
You rushed to give wrong examples without understanding the Op's point of view
He's talking about a country shedding the blood of its own citizens like Nigeria does, not those of outsiders
The examples you rushed to give all involved one country shedding the blood of those who were not her citizens.
Tendd: It is very easy.Stop eating beef and begin a total boycott,no one would come into your farms.What is the essence of grazing when they are no buyers? I eat much fish,egg for my protein intake.That's my little protest. Always bear in mind that when ever you buy and consume a cow meat, you are partly fuelling the crisis.
Land grabbing is a major part of those guys's plan, bros, not just grazing.
Glimpsetv: Nigerian Police Officer Allegedly Falls into Pit While Pursuing a Biker
A trending video of a policeman who fell into a street gutter in Lagos has sparked widespread conversation online.
In the viral footage, the officer is seen at the bottom of the pit, struggling to climb out as bystanders gather around, peering inside to check on his condition. A ladder was later brought to help him out of the ditch.
However, the reaction from many social media users has raised questions — why are so many people seemingly amused or pleased by the incident? Could this reflect the public’s general sentiment toward the Nigerian police?
The video has been widely shared across platforms such as Facebook, TikTok, Instagram, and X (formerly Twitter), with users flooding the comments section to express their thoughts and concerns.
