You plan to kill me, you spent money and took actions to execute the plan. By stroke of luck, I found out, you come dey beg me to release you as a first time offender..... na wa o. Shoo

Lol. That's how Samuel Doe too would have been sober as a 'first time offender' if he had failed in his plot to overthrow President Tolbert o.
Just as thieves mostly look sober after being caught. When the truth is that it is because they've been caught; not that they now wholeheartedly realise that stealing is bad

Besides, if he passed his promotion exams which he failed twice while he was good enough at making babies he would have made it to Brig-Gen and earned a better pay. By the British or American and other Western army positions if you fail those examinations twice you cannot be promoted a Colonel. In a well considered and salutary decision, The Army Council while General Danjuma was chief of army staff and Yaradua was chief of staff supreme headquarters recommended Sanni Abacha and Ibrahim Babangida be retired because they failed the exams twice. Olusegun Obasanjo who was the head of state pleaded they retain them. Hence the liking IBB has till today for Obasanjo. Hence the hatred both men, IBB and Abacha displayed on General Sheu Musa Yaradua. Both IBB and Abacha were never appointed as governors because they were deemed not qualified. Ma'aaji was another Fake Gen. Sanni Abacha in the waiting. Imagine how better for Nigeria it would have been if merit was upheld and Sanni Abacha and Ibrahim Babangida had been retired back then for failing military promotional exams twice! We would have been spared the evil the two men inflicted on Nigeria! I hope we will learn our lessons.

To buttress your point, I've read it in many places that the late Mamman Vatsa was known to be a lot more brilliant and intellectual than IBB, which was one of the things IBB was not comfortable with. I don't know if you can confirm this too, as you seem to be a military historian. Thanks.

Allegedly slaps?

You either slap or not. There is no allegededddeddelu slap

Allegedly means that something is claimed or said to have happened, but it has not been proven or confirmed yet. People, news reporters, and the legal system use this word to share an accusation without stating it as an absolute fact. As most users on Reddit agree, the term acts as a shield against declaring guilt prematurely. You can explore more detailed contexts at Dictionary.com or Cambridge Dictionary.

Legal and News Use

Used when a crime is reported.

Protects the idea that a person is innocent until proven guilty in a court.

Keeps news writers safe from being sued for defamation or libel if the accusation turns out false.

What about when the reporter in this write up puts it that the lecturer 'appears to slap' the student? Even when the video shows very clearly that the lecturer actually slapped the student. Why not the reporter simply say that the lecturer slapped the student? So, please, what is your view and also, the position of the law on this?

Thanks bros.

which means if they have 4 kids one will be ss

And the wahala that just that one ss will give them will dilute or dampen whatever joy the remaining healthy children give them. The risk is just too much.

I got myself into this trouble three weeks ago.

I was out of town when I received a call from a friend. We had been friends since when we were in school. Though we didn't see regularly (the last time we saw before this incident was over 8 years ago) but we conversed regularly. When he called he informed me he needed to stay with me that he had an issue with his landlord. He wasn't really explicit or straight in his explanation. When i was reluctant, he mentioned that he was staying for just one week. Okay, no problem. I said.

When i returned home, i refuse to call him because it needed my space for myself so as to be able to attend to some urgent works. The second day after the agreement was sealed, he asked if i had returned i told hime i wouldn't be returning until that evening.

This friend came with his bag very early the following day which was a Monday morning. It was after he settled in that I got to know that he left another friends house for my house. And before he went to that person house, he had been staying with another friend. Whatever reason he left that person's house, i wouldn't know. The moment he came, he started calling people (his mum, brother and girlfriend), citing my address as his current location.

My major headache is, this person had already spent three weeks and he doesn't seem ready to leave. All he does is, press phone, sleep and wakeup. He has already strained my food supply. I am hardly at home; I go to work in the morning and return late at night. I just noticed food I can't finish in two months vanished in two weeks. He uses my toiletries (bathing soap included), my hair cream and body cream.

What pains me is, he isn't coming out straight and is not seem comfortable discussing what his plans are. He only seems fixated with online business or whatsoever.

I will appreciate ideas on how to tell this friend to excuse me.

With what you learnt to be his antecedents of moving from one friend's place to another and now to yours, how are you not sure that he is someone on the run and you might be implicated as having harboured or aided him, if he gets caught?

Patriotic9ja:
Do we still have them in 9ja?

Yes, bro. There are still many wild elephants in certain forests of Ogun State, Yankari (Bauchi), Andoni (Rivers State), few in some deep parts of Oyo and Kwara forests and many, many in the national park in Cross River State.

ajalawole:
nothing do am. Gray hair is normal. I know some who start growing gray hair at 25. Am in my 30s and have a lot of gray hair on my head and beards, but my hair cream is helping a lot on that. You can only notice the gray hair on my beards

Okay... got it.

Bitcoin:
I started buying Bitcoin back in 2013 when it was about $200 a piece. I'm not here to get more people to buy so it wouldn't crash, rather I'm here to tame the fears of emotional investors who haven't experienced a bear market before. Go through my post history, I've always advised people to buy and hold, been saying this same thing for over a decade now. I say the same thing when it's rising and when it's dumping. Heck, I even came out to say people should buy Bitcoin when it hit an All-Time-High of $100,000.

It's funny you say I'm trying to persuade people to buy so It doesn't crash. Like seriously do you think Nigerians as a collective have the kind of buying power to really move the needle of a $1.5 trillion asset? How many nairaland users have the expendable cash to make a dent on it's market cap? Is it the $5 weekly purchase I'm encouraging them to make that will prevent Bitcoin from crashing?

Bitcoin changed my life and that of my household. I have always said people should convert some of their life savings into Bitcoin. It's never too late to get involved today, we are still on a trajectory to exponential new highs. But bear in mind, it will never be smooth sailing. Bitcoin remains the best performing asset class in over a decade. Buy and hold for the long haul.

Bros, please do you believe in SIDRA (SDA)? Do you know about it? It seems you understand these things a lot and can read them well. Your opinion will carry weight as I am trying to learn and decide.

Thanks

Good morning my people. Two Nigeria matches coming up, and I think they’re worth talking about, especially the one happening today.

🇳🇬 vs 🇹🇳 Nigeria vs Tunisia (AFCON – Today)

Nigeria playing Tunisia is never straightforward. On paper, Nigeria often looks stronger, but Tunisia has a way of making these games uncomfortable, especially in tournaments like the Africa Cup of Nations.

From what we’ve seen in past meetings:
• Tunisia are usually very organized defensively
• They don’t rush the game
• They wait for mistakes and punish you

Nigeria, on the other hand, tends to play better when we move the ball quickly and don’t overcomplicate things. If we score early, it should be a good day. If not, it could turn into one of those tense matches where patience is key.

Personally, I think midfield discipline will decide this game. Once we lose shape, Tunisia will take advantage.

As for:

🇺🇬 Uganda vs 🇳🇬 Nigeria (30th)

After today, Nigeria faces Uganda on the 30th. Some people may already be writing it off as an easy game, but I don’t think it’s that simple.

Uganda usually plays with a lot of energy, especially against bigger teams. Also, this kind of match is where coaches tend to rotate players, which can affect rhythm.

Things I’ll be watching out for:
• Squad rotation and new faces
• How well the team keeps possession
• Defensive concentration

It’s a good test, not just a “friendly.”


My final take is that both matches matter in different ways. Tunisia is about focus and experience. Uganda is about consistency and squad depth. If Nigeria handles both well, it says a lot about where the team is heading.

For those who won’t be in front of a TV, some people are following the matches via live streams online — https://eventstreamhd.cam is one of the options being shared around.

What do you think:
• Nigeria vs Tunisia — win or struggle?
• Should the coach rotate heavily against Uganda?

Let’s hear your honest football opinions 👇

Please, when exactly is Nigeria's match today, 630pm or 9:30pm?

Goo0dHardDick:
Nigeria police don't have work. They are jobless.

Free that dude and let him go !

They should go after bandits instead

You mean they should go after First Class citizens? What an audacity!

This one is Eddie Grant o.

I observe that the two men also look somewhat alike, and from the same area.

cutievik:
Its not Nigeria, they are lookingfor traffic. I blame the government for letting everyone get away with nonsense.

So, please where is it, bros? I will appreciate the information.

Christlike01:
Unfortunately,the guy you quoted is long dead — killed by ipob!

Bros, is this a fact or you are just joking?

Bialegend:
These are terrorists. Stop ignorantly using your nigeria government narative. Check the meaningof bandit and check the meaningof terrorist and stop displaying your ignorance.

A frightening truth which most Nigerians are yet to come to terms with.

GuyWise101:
Nna mehnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

Imagine how peaceful the world would have been if not for the introduction of worshiping the Sun god by Enki

They want to destroy humanity by introducting the worshiping of one imaginary being they said is living up in the sky.

The day human being especially Africans will abandon religion and focus on humanity development that will be the day we will start making a head way but until then we will keep on going in circle, fighting, killing and destroying ourselves just to massage the ego of some extraterrestrial being that wants us to worship them.

Bros, I wish you can elaborate on this Enki part because I am interested. Especially as per how it relates to religion. I know a bit about Enlil and Enlil, Annu etc but I would like you to enlighten me in the aspect of their connection to religion, or you can kindly give me links to research them.

Thanks.

QuinModah:
It’s easy to look at the insecurity around us and assume the military generals are incompetent or unworthy of their ranks. But the truth is, becoming a general is not always about being on the frontlines fighting bandits like Bello Turji. Modern armies don’t work that way anymore. By the time an officer reaches the rank of general, he’s usually in his late 40s or 50s and has spent decades rising through the system—leading operations, training soldiers, studying strategy, and coordinating logistics.

Nigeria’s insecurity problem isn’t just a “military” issue. Banditry thrives because of weak governance, poverty, corruption, porous borders, and sometimes even local collaboration with criminals. Generals may plan and authorize operations, but without intelligence, political will, and community cooperation, those plans can fail.

So while it’s fair to demand accountability, it’s also unfair to assume these men did nothing to merit their stars. Some have risked their lives in international peacekeeping missions, others have led battalions that successfully pushed back insurgents. The insecurity challenge is deeper than just “bad generals”—it’s a mix of politics, resources, and a broken system that even the most decorated general alone cannot fix.

God bless you!
