All that stuff is just going to get stolen all over again and sold back to foreign art collectors, unless they hand it all over to the Oba of Benin directly.
Quintopia: Buhari Must Be Praised For The Glorious Rise of Nigerian Athletics
The last month or so has seen Team Nigeria gather an unprecedented haul of medals, including numerous gold medals, and achieve the shattering of WORLD RECORDS, AFRICAN RECORDS, COMMONWEALTH RECORDS, at every turn.
Today was another such day.
Our Womens' 100 metres relay team destroyed a star-studded track to win gold at the Commonwealth games in Birmingham, in addition to another gold medal won by Tobi Amusan in the 100 metre hurdles.
Another gold medal just came in in the womens long jump.
Our men have have done better than in recent years, winning numerous silver and bronze medals in boxing, wrestling, weightlifting, table tennis, and athletics.
As at today, TEAM NIGERIA have won 13 gold medals, 9 silver, and 14 bronze at the Commonwealth games in Birmingham.
THIS IS UNPRECEDENTED.
So what accounts for this success?
GOVT SUPPORT.
The FG has given maximum support to Team Nigeria.
Right from Oregon, where, in addition to their usual allowances, a million dollars cash bonus was shared among the team, with Tobi Amusan receiving 20,000 dollars cash, to Birmingham, where all monies have been paid, to back in Nigeria where training facilities were upgraded and funded, there has been a SEA CHANGE in the govt approach to Nigerian sports, from what occurred in the past.
THE RESULT?
WHAT YOU ARE SEEING TODAY, AS OUR SPORTSMEN AND WOMEN BRING GLORY TO THEIR FATHERLAND.
Walllee: As Abuja is currently the Capital of Nigeria,and resources gotten from every state is currently used for it's development,Is it fair for Northerners to claim to have developed Abuja,and is it right for them to ask other Nigerians why they are resident in Abuja?
Why I asked this question is because, Some supporters are claiming that Tinubu developed Lagos,when Lagos enjoyed funds from the resources of all other states of Nigeria, for it's massive development for 78yr(1914-1991),even before Mr Tinubu became Governor of the state from 1999-2007. So if a state enjoyed these funds generated from other states for 78yrs,is it fair to claim than one Man made it what it is today? These are the pictures of Lagos 1975,1950,&1960,when other state where still building mud houses,while their resources is farried to Lagos for their own development.
Tinubu that did not build a single bridge in eight years
apache22b: I pity Peter Obi's urchins that will not vote Tinubu,the only man who has the will to make this Country better again. A man God has presented to Nigeria and Nigerians on a platter. Over my dead body will Peter Obi rule this Country. FalseProphet1 already confirmed Tinubu will be our next President and so shall it be .
Fellow Nigeria Vote Wisely
Nigeria will be Great again only with Tinubu
Vote Bola Ahmed Tinubu for a better Nigeria for us all .
Look at this abomination
You are a curse to all your generations, past present and future
Perfectbeing: Lekki deep seaport is almost delivered and here you are barking.
We will see where filthy scavengers like yourself think they can hide, when it all comes tumbling down...continue to betray your unborn generations in exchange for stale crumbs, you e-rat
Okobola146: BBNaija Organisers Must Regret Airing The Show At This Tense Political Period; The Move Selfish, Conceited — UK-Based Nigerian Doctor
“The organisers of Big Brother Nigeria must sincerely regret airing the show at this tense political period.
I found the move to air the show a tad selfish and conceited.
You can’t be airing a show known for vanities at a period when a nation on the brink is facing very critical elections.
We have gradually reached a state where soft events, even in sports no longer bring the needed distraction from the political and economic disasters occasioned by our poor leadership.”
A lot of these government gaslighters are going to be murdered next year via mob action. Endsars will be child's play compared to the fury that will be unleashed next year
Conner44: You see the bolded above? That’s why you’re not seen as a threat to even your own self.
Instead of you to measure up to someone who’s performing better than you at a common task you’re trying your best to cut him down to size lol as I said earlier, simple jealousy and envy
But you’ve failed even before you started. Just remain down there where he left you and watch him soar to greater heights.
Don’t drag the issue too long here or else you’d deactivate this your new moniker within the next few days. As a bonafide semi-literate I am assuring you of that.
Enough of this back-and-forth, you're obviously an underemployed zombie like that other fool.
Conner44: Hmm na wah oh, na so person carry him own hand ridicule himself for this thread today?
Corto say everybody sabi drive , say driving no be work yet him dey run go hospital when him sick forgetting say because you fit carry panadol drink nor mean say you don become doctor
Ndubuisi own na free-falling of him hand for here. Cheerful don give that one knockout imagine a driver wey get license last year wan dey drag steering with veterans here . . . Still form mugu carry ‘asha’ mount for house
Hoooooo God ! Just because of jealousy and envy na him all these cretins dey pop up oh. Still on still cheerful don use them wipe ground wotorishiously
Odogwu ride on, they got nothing on you. We dey your back. Na me be your number one cheerful cheerleader for here no cap
spoil everything and everybody, nothing doeseth you nwanne
Yours is the most stupid take I ever encountered on nairaland till date, because, even your doctor drives. And fyi I cannot envy a madman like that guy...ever. Dude has NO life. Literally NO LIFE
The truth you people can never face is that you lot are underemployed. But doubt you no what that means anyhow
Kingdolla: The drivers in those organizations are quite different from the ones here. Even the least person here earn more than the main staffs in those organizations you're talking about.
CheerfulGiver: Look at this Fulani herdsman raped cow. You must think you're on a thread for fools. You call me a lunatic and a mad man but here you are replying my posts even when it's obvious I don't know you, don't care to know you or your father, don't care if you're breathing. Don't care if you were raped by your uncles. Don't care about your miserable life. I'm living my happy life. Your wife is denying you sex and you think you can hyperventilate your sexual and financial frustrations on me?
You're a full blown fucktard_
Didn't read any of that crap you put up there because I made my point already....though am glad to see I stuck you so good, you had to reply twice
CheerfulGiver: You really have the brain capability of a housefly to think I'm insulted by being called a common driver. We all on this thread drive for a living and we are proud of it. There's nothing wrong with being called a driver. I'm being overpaid for driving.
Let's talk about you... You've been frustrated all your life. You've been controlled all your life as an adult, first by your mother and now by your wife. Your level of frustration is evidenced by your sleeping on this thread day and night trying to learn the skills of driving and logging into your 3rd account to seek for a car.
You type like an imbecile_. It takes a smart person to drive and earn money in Lagos. Which you're not. You're so stupid you didn't realize you were logged into your alternate account. I'm not the source of your frustration but I'll happily compound them. Whoever placed a curse on you has been vindicated and may all the curses continue to be manifest through out your miserable existence.
Me seek for a car to drive here? You're clearly a mad man.
Seek therapy else you'll soon go naked in the streets, you lunatic
Kingdolla: what do you mean by a common driver and why are you here in the first place?
This is a free forum
And you don't need any specialised training to drive so long you've got normal reflexes and commonsense. Go to any organisation, the drivers and cleaners are usually the least paid staff.
CheerfulGiver: You knew all these but you just wanted to type, to feel relevant... To feel important. After all your rant and vituperating you ended with its your time, your car and your energy... Did I use your time before?
Can you now see how crystal clear your stupidity is? I don't want to insult you because you think and type like someone under a generational curse. Just look around your current environment and be assured that you're the biggest fool right there.
What an asinine idiot!
If you're as smart as you claim, how did you end up a common driver?
Something is fundamentally wrong with your life bro, no wonder you feel the need to constantly brag to your fellow drivers here and hurl insults at them. This obviously isn't normal...
