This guy or any other of the emirs shouldn't have agreed to occupy the Kano emirate throne when Sanusi was deposed.
See now, the same thing is being done to him.

The evil you wish upon others will certainly befall you

Even as a woman, I have grown big dogs and this Rottweiler who is now huge lives in my room yet you are scared to your bones of animals God created you as a man to conquer

You are so scared of them, you hate them and wish evil on their owners

Pussy ass fool

Pseudo Women masquerading as men everywhere


First, it's not a wish, it's a fact that these wild beasts attack more kids than grown-ups.
It's not my fault if you decide to become emotional about it. Apart from my own experience, there's even a thread here a dog killed it's owner's son. These dogs were bred to be hunters with killer instincts and were never meant to be kept by rookies like yourself. Whatever the dogs decide to make of you when they get the right triggers, you'll only have yourself to blame.
Secondly, I can't allow my kids near any house where they rear these kind of dogs, and I'll gun down at the very first sight, any unmanned or unleashed wild beast near my house, so you should only be worried about yours children if you have any.

Trade mark of APC supporters. They get petty, you respond and they tell you quickly that you started it all!

Please read your first comment again, then tell us who was emotional and petty in the first place.

Or were you not there when BAT was plotting to become the President of the whole of Nigeria, overlooking the SE deliberately? Did the NW and SW equate to the whole of Nigeria? Today he is the President of the whole of Nigeria, including the same SE that he overlooked.
NW and SW with combined voter's strength of almost half of the total registered voters?
You can't win a national election if you lose in those two regions. That's a fact.

You know, this demonstrates why a native speaker of a language is still a native speaker. This was written by a native speaker. People like you and Akpabio only know basic English. It takes massive familiarity with a language to grasp poetic and other aspects of it.
Chinua or Wole will immediately see that Akpabio just exposed his lack of thorough familiarity with English language

Just read the NOA version and tell me what is correct about those phrases.

In a capitalist economy, the government creates avenue for healthy competition that will cause the price of goods to come down. Oga this is not the only government in Nigeria history. Ur president can ask others how they achieved it. I don't have energy for all these
The last I checked, Nigerians have always complained about their government since 1960.
Don't assume you're talking to a kid here.

This is the problem I have with your likes!
You react without thinking thereby spewing rubbish!

So because GEJ who was from the SS didn't do much to ensure resource control hence other president s won't do the same?

This is the kind of myopic mentality that will keep making our leaders take us for a ride!

Don't you know that when there is resource control,the pressure will leave the president and everyone will focus on their governors forcing them to be accountable to their people!

With the spotlight positioned on the governors,they will be condemned to not only be accountable for the humongous funds from their natural resources but will ensure that they work hard enough to justify their stay or they get butted out!

As long as we keep practicing this terrible feeding bottle policy of FG sharing faac allocations to states and LGAs,the governors will not be accountable and FG or president will keep getting the blame!
Please try to make sense when quoting me. Resource control or not, it shouldn't stop the governors from being responsible and alive to their duties.
I pointed out how these governors are hiding behind our tendencies to blame only the federal government, you said we should go full resource control.
Maybe you've not seen the case filed by the federal government against State government as regards local government autonomy and guess who are the ones against it.
Just wait until we achieve full resource control first before you know your rights in your state.

The president should remove resource control,internal security and seaport from the exclusive list just the same way Buhari did with electricity and watch everyone focus on governors!
The president has no business with whatever is happening in a particular state unless there is a threat of national security by terrorists!
If the president can ensure the speedy passage of an inconsequential anthem,then this should not be a problem for him!
If it's that easy to remove resource control as you've make it to appear, Former President Jonathan from the SS would have done it within the 6 years he graced the seat.
We know it's this same governors that won't let the local governments breathe, but we should all blame the president for everything.
Continue to wait until full resource control before you hold your governors accountable. I've never seen seen where someone not faithful with little will be able to do so if given more. They've been collecting more allocations since last year, let them at least show us what they've been doing with it.
Politics / Re: Minimum Wage: Resign If You Can’t Pay, Labour Tackles Governors by DeOTR: 5:00am On Jun 09
It's as simple as that. Governors are the most useless set of people we have in this country.
Their contributions to where we found ourselves today is more than we can ever imagine.
We would have been halfway there if these people are doing their jobs, but since they know everyone blames the Federal government and the President for everything, they get away with incompetence.

The bold sums it up

Agree on all counts.

When I first got to england despite being a graduate, I had 2 full time minimum wage jobs as a security guard and at macdonalds. After finishing 12 hours of standing, I will go and do macdonalds where there is not a second of rest. I did what I had to do to improve myself. In Nigeria, you are a minimum wage worker you earn 30k or less and you have time to go to church for overnight vigil and revival?

We are not serious

You're as ignorant as the person you replied.

We have employers of labour who use their workers to make excessive profits and still pay them less. Is that not true?

For instance, there are teachers in private schools in Nigeria teaching more than two or three subjects, which is not supposed to be,yet they're are paid peanuts despite the large students population and exorbitant school fees that they charge.

Yes, that's happening with nobody to check them.

Both of you are quick to judge others because you're very shallow in your thinking..

So how's this minimum wage increase supposed to force those organizations to pay?
You should ask yourself if they've complied with the current wage before thinking of the new one. Is the labour union even concerned about enforcing the minimum for private organizations to start with?
You probably don't know what you're talking about.

The annoying thing is these people mostly are unskilled and have a bad attitude and poor work ethic. You would think that common sense would tell them that the best way to get a salary increase is to work so hard to get noticed and make themselves indispensable.
Very annoying. It's because it's very convenient to be lazy.
I don't rate any public servant, including their counterparts, the political office holders.

You can't comfortably raise kids on minimum wage, but if you do for any reason best known to you, you better be ready to get another source of income and not blame your employer if they decide not to give you a raise, or better still, get a better job.

I didn’t read all you wrote but let me tell you a basic principle in emplotlyer employee relations. If you feel your employer is exploiting you, you are free to quit and find another job. It is not slavery, it is not forced Labour. You likely can only get what you get because that is what your productivity and skill set (or lack there of) is worth in the open market.


Like I said you are free to quit. You have a sense of entitlement. Nobody owes you a job or 3 square meals, you earn it by the value of your work. If 30k is all anyone is prepared to pay you, then get a second job. Or go and work for your father’s company where you can be idle all day and get a salary that is comfortable.

I have repeated this many times: the reason why most employers are only willing to pay minimum wage workers earn so little is 1) they are unproductive…you need 3,4,5 to do the job of 1 person so the salary that should go to 1 person is shared amongst them.
Ask most of them if they can pay their cleaners at least 150k as they want the minimum wage to be, it'll be another story.
I've learned one thing in life: the best way to get a pay raise is to change your job. No profit oriented organization will wake up one morning and decide to double your salary.

Politics / Re: How much you think will be reasonable for NLC/TUC Accept as minimum wage? by DeOTR: 8:13am On Jun 04
There are a lot of things that the Labor unions should be fighting for.
400k+ might sound very unreasonable, but pegging the minimum wage as a percentage of the monthly salary of those never do wells in the national assembly is a welcome development.
Let the minimum wage never be less than 10% of the total monthly package of any elected public office holder, that's when I'll know Labor unions know what they're doing.
It's either the government bring down their bogus pay, or they increase worker's pay as requested. It's criminal for someone to be earning 18m monthly for a job most Nigerians can do.
If the government wants the people to bear with the effects of their policies and reason with them, they must be seen to be doing the same thing. This is the right time to cut down all government expenses to the nearest minimum.
I repeat, minimum wage should not just be a meaningless number. It should be a percentage of the pay for the political class.
