Yadid:
Not even Argentina or France conferred national honours with gifts of houses and lands on the players who won the World Cup in 2018 and 2022. We like being wasteful here. There are retired civil servants who served for 35 years being owed pension. This is coming after they've been paid in dollars for their efforts. Yet the country is poor, innit? Misplaced priority.

France did in 1998. I was at the final. I don't know about 2018.

Nice one but fact is that you adapt very well, even without 9ja food.

The shaving razor one is funny.

There are clippers to use na.

RepoMan007:

Govt is unproductive and you are here asking for more unproductive units. Good luck.

You did not read it. You just commented. Why is govt unproductive? How do we make it productive?

Begin by looking at the structure we have now. Then compare to 1960.

There will always be govt, whether we like it or not. Doing nothing is no solution.

RepoMan007:
We all should be thinking of going back to 6 states if we know what's good for Nigeria.

We need about 8 regions plus FCT:

SE, SW, Lagos, Bendel, ND, Middle Belt, NE, NC, FCT.

Abolish states. Only Regions and Local Councils.

President, Regional Premiers and Local Council Mayors/Chairmen.

Then a unicameral NASS. Salary pegged at level of University professor at most. And another 100% as allowance/bonus.

With regional police and resource control. 30% of resource earnings go to the centre/FG.

For the First 10 years, 5% of IGR from better off regions will be contributed into a pool of money to support the less well off regions.

Call it solidarity premium. Rigging to be president and massive central corruption will reduce.

Who exactly is benefiting from an ever falling Naira? What kind of cruelty is this? In 2019, a friend of mine based in the US invested $200,000(N72,000,000 at that time) into Nigerian real estate. Now his investment is valued at about N200,000,000($135,000). Despite the fact that his naira investment tripled in value, it was still not worth it from a dollar perspective. He is now regretting his decision because he would have been better off just leaving his $200k in the bank when you consider it is now worth 32 percent less. This is an example of foreign investor they claim to be courting.

Lol, they don't mean it to benefit me and you or any genuine investor. To invest in 9ja from abroad is awful economically. Especially since 2015. Unless in politics.

It's for those CBN allocate Forex to and sell on quickly to BDCs/Mallams. Even that will fail increasingly as the difference narrows upon flotation.

Remember there are people who deal in dollars/Euros only in 9ja. They have huge reserves of Forex, and they feel good to see Forex as the only store of value. Their tenants in VI/Ikoyi/Abuja pay them in dollars. Real estate in most parts of 9ja (except highbrow areas) and the Naira are not a good store of economic value currently.

Once the elite have benefitted from the chaos enough, there will be a policy summersault. Largely due to pressure from the North. Election threat things. Then back to square.

And then i remember, i should have said Nigeria has never played this type of defensive football at AFCON.

In the 2002 World cup , i remember we crumbled under this same pressure. Though i must give it to the players we had back then. They played better despite meeting a classic Argentinian team.

Dude, let's be honest. I thought semi-final would be a huge success.
Winning AFCON would have been an overachievement like we did in 2013.
For their level of talent, they did great in this AFCON.

Even the highly talented pool of 2000 could not do better at home.

saddler:

Sure Ivory Coast deserved their win.

The Coach's formation and tactics prioritized Defense in place of attack.

The midfield was basically not existent and that meant Osimhen was stranded forward.

Nigeria has never played this kind of defensive football.

We are used to a 4-3-3 or 4-4-2 formation.

At least we went further than we have ever done in a decade. Bassey and entire defence was under too much pressure. Ndidi was an epic miss to SE.

saddler:

Those of you criticizing Osimehn are armchair football analysts who knows nothing about football.

Osimhen did not look too fit.

Simon should have started to run behind CIV defence like Adingra did to us.
Osimhen was starved of ball.

CIV played sound football and deserved their win.

Teejay2033:


Our midfield was none existence tonight. We weren't tackling the Ivorians neither were we winning balls. So, no adequate supply of balls to the attackers. Everything weren't just right from the start of the game.

Win bawo.

The few times we touched the ball, we gave it away cheaply. Adingra & Max Gradel really tortured SE through the wings.
I always said that losing balls too cheaply, no midfield and letting crosses in will allow Haller do magic. Haller can play rubbish 90 minutes but scores spectacular goals. That's his work in Dortmund. He does easily what Darwin Nunez of Liverpool attempts to do.

RepoMan007:
10 years ago started in 2013. Was APC in power at federal level?

Read post, una no go gree . . see your life now.

Dude, these things are analysed in 10-years cycles.

In any case, don't pretend that almost 9 years of APC has not been enough to change whatever mess they claim they inherited from Jonathan's 6 years in office. You come to power to better what you campaigned to replace, not to lament.

Be honest with yourself and look at inflation and Forex yearly from 2009 to May 2015 and from June 2015 to 2024.

The truth shall set everyone free.

No hiding place for anyone from inflation, insecurity/kidnappers/bandits.

RIP to him and those who died alongside him.

Ok

Scholace:
Some uncles are truly useless. My dad singlehandedly raised his little brother till he becomes adult. He sent him to school while my mum linked him up with a job in an oil company. This Uncle of mine doesn't not send any of us, including my mum and his brother my father. We his niece and nephew are suffering with no help in sight. Don't you think we have a right to tell him to his face that he's wicked?

Dude, things can be deep in life.

My dad raised my cousin from about age of 4. In fact everyone thought he was my dad's firstborn. From primary to secondary. Then my dad also joined money with other family members in late 70s to process his schooling abroad. He eventually managed to, I believe, in 1980. He got to Yankee and did his degrees. Until my dad passed on a few years ago, he once sent my dad 100 Naira around 1987.

He visited Nigeria a few times, was in same town and never visited my dad.

It turned out that in the 1980s, he actually sent lots of money to be given to my dad to supervise projects for him. His siblings never delivered the money and only told my dad that the guy sent some money for them (siblings) to do some project to him. My dad prayed for him. But his siblings did no project.

My dad could not reach him as his siblings gave us a fake address. Letters written were returned. Unknown person.

Now, perhaps until today, he may believe that my dad ate his money. Not even condolences from him when my dad died. May be he does not even know.

I am not bothered about whether he gave my dad anything or not because I got abroad early too and my dad didn't lack.

But to not visit my dad while in 9ja several times was bad. To NOT mourn my dad was equally bad.

Life abroad is not as rosy as some believe and big men are not always as powerful (to give jobs anyhow) or buoyant (to dish out money) as people believe.

Fact is I can't be sure why he behaved that way. It's most likely his siblings lied to him.

People can be wicked, including siblings.

Please nobody should quote me

fati2001:
This is what Nairaland, called wife material. By putting the husband first.


May he be found.

Amen.

But don't be in a hurry about material. This world people nor too genuine like that.

Who saw him last? Does he normally leave home that late without his phone? To go where?

Any side chick? Any marital discord lately?

Any issues at work?

Make we see all these first.

TheBillyonaire:


Why wedding?

If you have completed your village traditional requirements, then you are married. You do not need a Jesus to bind you. Your village rights supersedes any foreign religions. If there is need for it, you can proceed with marriage registry, otherwise you are cool.

Save the 1.5m for pampers and children medical care.

Women dey gree? They always wan do pass demself.
Will he listen to common sense as you said?

Most likely not.

Chukwuka319:
Too many of lNdi Oji Ikpu Eme Ogo in town.It takes the Grace of God for a man to marry a chaste and decent girl.
He should divorce her immediately without wasting a second and forge ahead.
At least he has been spared the trauma of paternity fraud.

Which planet chaste and decent one dey?

Look deep at each lady and you will be shocked. Don't set yourself up for disappointment by having any expectation. Don't.
Do your paternity test and once the kids are yours, manage it until you catch her.

I am not saying this lightly. No chaste one. None. Unless no opportunity to mess about.

I used to consider those folks that keep their women indoors as primitive. I know better now.

lolexzy:
See as she fresh from money paid through tears

She has been marrying the Al Capones of kidnapping world. Why she nor go fresh?

But see am dem all look like Ethiopia people.

We don't really know who is Nigerian and who's not. Despite NIN, BVN and all the nonsense.

Resetinc:
It depends on the initial relationship between her and the husband family members

But las las you’re married to him, not his family

By African culture, you are married into a new family.

In SW and SS, a traditional wife will call all her in-laws, boys, girls, old and young "my husband".

We first need to define how we want it. To be Africans or Westerners. We must decide.

@ MisterBanny

The truth is, a woman only loves her kids. The hubby is the vehicle to achieve her plans and tick the married box.

Remember that a woman marries the guy who seeks her out (at least the guy likes her enough to pick her), not the guy she would have liked. Yes, she can refuse but genuine and serious options are limited. So marrying a man does not mean she loves him. More men love their wives than the reverse. Doing wifely duties as custom demands is not equal to love.

Hubby's family members are by and large mere background noise and nuisance to most women. To avoid, if possible.

A wise lady knows that a guy loves his parents, so she treats her in-laws right to please him. That's it.

Lol. If country was good, only few would leave.

Repair country first.

When I heard that their name is Banana Banana, I just relaxed, bought some ground nuts to watch the game. Banana and groundnut was sweet to eat.

Emman08:
2 of course. Modern, clean straight lines.
1 is for Nigerian politicians wey don too thief money with nothing to do with it

You beat me to it.

It depends on where you are in life.

As a young successful guy, No. 2. Simple and modern.

If you are a mazi, Otunba, chief, ozo title holder, oloye or some senior dude, No 1 as your main lounge to receive big people is cool. Of course have another simple lounge to play with grandkids.

See ajekpako everywhere.

That thing there na delicious snack.

I can proudly list many Nairalanders I have patronised in various business sectors here.

Good luck to you.

well are you not trolling right now?

You asked for sample. I provided it. Now the next thing is who I built the website for?

Please aren't you mad?

If you go about insulting people you don't know, don't be surprised when you get your reward for it. You know you pretend to offer a service, to get you will be easy.

A genuine businessmen has no problem answering basic questions but 419 have issues with it.

Mods, Seun Osewa and co, scrutinise this boy here. When he built website for Tesla. He claims Tesla Invest website is his work sample. Before people fall victim here.

If you are legit, you will have no issue proudly showing off your work. Builders here on NL show off their work from foundation to the end.

Since you are typing from Yaba left, you only see mad people around you.

Now are you going to patronize or just troll?

Oh you built website for Tesla of Elon Musk? Or the finance business is owned by somebody else?

So anybody asking for testimonial or work sample is a troll unless he gives you a job immediately?

It's better to display our attitudes here openly than in more private WhatsApp chats.

Wow!

Boldtrust:


Did you forget they're five African women involved in this? Married women who should not be part of this kind of news under any condition. This shows women cheat 5 times more than men

One gender person says the man is greedy.
So does it mean if he had limited it to one or two married women, it would be ok?

To me it seems like "the guy I am cheating with might be sleeping with other married women o" kind of mentality.

In her wisdom, there is no curse on the married women distributing their pvssy to any randy he-goat. Five of them o.

crossfm:
Hehehe.

Warning ko, warning ni .

This baba is looking for who to deceive.I trust Nigerians,they will do the needful .

All these book economics nor dey work in 9ja because nobody follows the rules.

The dude sef dey stockpile FX seriously.

When has Naira ever regained value it has lost? It might regain a little temporarily but medium term is more devaluation.

If you have dollars/Euro, keep your money jeje. Even if Naira becomes 900 to a dollar, still keep it and wait for just 6 months.

Even dom accounts worth about 30 abi 50 billion dollars in total already dey govt eye to raid sef.
