This chicken weighed 9kg when I went to buy it on 24th Dec. cost me 40k in Lagos. I was in awe of its size that I began to wonder what the rearers feed them. Haven’t seen such a thing before. The picture doesn’t do justice to the actual size of this chicken

What are the lessons?

Recall that during the 2022 to 2023 presidential campaigns, Arise News and ThisDay used every opportunity to attack Tinubu.

Ms Ojynika Ojy Ope brought every Tinubu's gaffe to amplify on her gossip segment of their morning show. Rufai Oseni said all sorts and asked Tinubu to bring himself to their studios so he (Rufai Oseni) could cross-examine him. Tundun Abiola abused people who spoke for Tinubu. Abati sometimes got carried away and joined the fray. Even their proprietor wrote a scathing release where he specifically said that Nigeria must avoid a "Noriega moment", in reference to Tinubu's unproven drug dealings. That press release was in bad taste that the duo of Dele Alake and Bayo Onanuga took the owner of Arise News to the cleaners over his unethical business practices. The owner of Arise News even tried to control public opinion by insisting Tinubu must be interviewed by them or other media house.

We must remember that the media house gave positive press coverage to PDP, Atiku, LP, Peter Obi and Godwin Emefiele as the latter contributed his quota to bury tye Nigerian economy.

They even lied that APC Presidential Campaigns had asked ThisDay/Arise Media Group to remove Rufai Oseni from the Morning Show and Shaka Momodu as ThisDay Editor in favour of patronage should Tinubu win.

After the heat from Bayo Onanuga and Dele Alake, Newspaper Proprietors Association of Nigeria had to intervene to reach a settlement as the owner of ThisDay/Arise found himself in hot water.

The morning after the results were declared, Rufai Oseni exhibited a sad and forlorn look as he could not conceal his pain.

Following Tinubu's victory, they brought all sorts of human beings to their media station to discredit the elections and discuss a matter in a court. When all that failed and the handwriting on the wall was clear, their boss started making moves to ingratiate himself to the leaders of the day. For example, he invited himself to attend a Nigeria-Saudi Investment Forum to catch the eye of the president.

Only recently, they tried to discredit the coastal highway by jumping from one issue to another without questioning someone for allocating public land to himself.

What has changed from the antagonistic media group to bromancing the president?

What are the lessons:

1. Put your eye on the ball and believe in what you do and do what you are convinced in. Had Tinubu allowed himself to be misled to the biased media group, they'd have messed him up.

2. Many organizations take editorial decisions to favour the business interests of their owners. Do not be deceived that they are giving a voice to you or your feelings. They are doing what is politically expedient at that time.

3. I think it is unethical for a media house to dish out awards. A media is a business, but how can they be objective in coverage when they give awards to people they ought to report?

4. How come Channels TV, TVC, NTA, VOA et al do not give awards to people?

5. It is clearly a battle of business survival which makes this award in bad taste, unethical and unacceptable.

Let's look into the future:

1. Atiku and Obi would condemn ThisDay/Arise for giving Tinubu the award.

2. Tinubu should thank them and reject it.

3. I am ashamed of Tinubu's enemies eating their words. Why can't they stand by what they claimed to have believed?

all this English no too much for award wey dem buy to save face from being the 3rd most corrupt leader in the world?


Can I also see the lessons you dropped on that topic?

bolu96:
You mean you repaid the whole 150k?

Lol, don't mind them. High interest rate. Just too high.

yes

bolu96:
Thanks for getting back.

At the bolded, really? They've always called me to borrow but my problem with them is the time frame is very short- 7 days and high interest. How did you get them to give you 1 month? I'm very curious to know.

I'm currently eligible to borrow about 100k.

they increase the repayment timeline if you're consistent with repayments of you don't default. Mine also started with 7 days. For this one I'm currently owing, I repayed on 30th and they increased my borrow amount by 57,000. Lol. Now I can borrow up to 200,000 on Palmpay. I don leave them run. I no wan borrow again. The interest rate is too much

bolu96:
Hello, is your repay date due now? And how much do you owe them? What's the time frame given to you to pay back?

it will be due on 1st December. I owe them 146,000. It’s for 1 month

dodoatirice:
You daddy has been serious all his life, Daniel is more popular than him oh wait i include my daddy.. dey there you hear, keep forming matured.. i will be here when Daniel will accuire something tangible that your daddy and my daddy with all their seriousness even served in the Nigerian Army cannot. Lets get of that high horse, Daniel is better than your daddy, my daddy and more popular. Its a bitter pil, but can be swallowed.

iLoveYouToo:
What portion of this money did you use to gamble? Forgive me if I’m wrong

I don't gamble!

Naetokelly:
Owing palmpay 150k and you’re still alive? They will use calls and blackmailing kill you and your contact! Omo those people stupid I swear

my repay date isn't due yet

MondayOmoAdugbo:
Maybe this one if e never jump..

You posted this expecting a form of applause or what? We're to stupid in this country 😭

badoh:
Did you eat yesterday?

I do not dignify fools with a response

TemplarLandry:
Another inciting and erroneous stat from NBS AKA Nigerian Bullsheet Statisticians.

if we must achieve a better society, persons like this must be subjected to mob action and I'm not joking

This is not a lie. Since today I've not eaten and I'm owing Palmpay over 150k. Tinubu has destroyed this country beyond repair. At this point, I don't mind relocating to war thorn Ukraine

F

So Daniel Regha don turn celebrity like play like play. We always platform idiots and it tells because the opinion shapers in Nigeria are mostly daft. Reason why our country is in a state of wanton comatose.

It does not mean that wizkid's album isn't mid tho. Davido is the GOAT

Dalohad:
I am happy that Ekpa has been arrested. I badly want him to be extradited but unfortunately Nigeria has always shot itself on the foot by having a corrupt and inept judicial system, and an executive government with poor human rights record. Unfortunately, Simon Ekpa will use that lacuna that against Nigeria to make a good case against his extradition and he will get away with his atrocities.

If Nigeria had always obeyed it own human right laws, other countries would have trusted it with extraditing fugitives..

Ekpa will fight tooth and nail against extradition and would most likely succeed, because Nigeria has a terrible record with how it treats it's political crime suspects. The Nnamdi Kanu case where over 100 adjournments has been done to keep him in DSS custody (not even the Correctional facility) will be in the fore of Ekpa's argument against Nigeria, and he will likely win.

Ekpa will likely be set free in Finland or at worse go to one of those Scandinavian prisons that looks like hotels and continue his shenanigans. Too bad that Nigeria's bad records will work against bringing Ekpa to justice.

this is exactly my thought. If he was arrested in an African country, they would exrradite him regardless but this is Finland, EU. They will not exrradite him. They will try him there and if found guilty, he will serve his sentence there. On the other hand, Finland does not condone terrorism. Terrorist who have become citizens of the nation where they are resident are often stripped of their citizenship and deported to their country of birth. Perhaps that might be the case for crime minister Simon Epkerima

SamueItem337:
Kassia you are talking too much
Go and confront them

this is why people say she's boring. I remember the day this show started when they played a short intro video of the housemates. Literally all of them including Kassia said they're coming into the house with fire. It's ironic the kind of fire they promised us.

PNomsule:
I was distracted... please why was ozee and Wanni asked to leave the game? I mean, shouldn't it be one players drink that must have spilled to be then asked to leave the game, why 2 players Oz x Wanni?

they played in pairs

MasterSteps:
Yes, on the last Sunday in Biggie's house, she will leave.

changes nothing. She needs to put in more energy

Lauryn41:
Unfortunately Victoria is top 2 this week

Good for her if she survives eviction this Sunday. But you'd agree with me that your fave is just dulling the show

TallnSexyBabe:
Leave Topher and replace with ozee. Ozee talks too much.
I've noticed he loves listening to himself talking.

the Mba twins are actually good communicators and I feel their game is playing the big brother in the house. You may disagree but they've been able to create this image in your subconscious where you can't imagine housemates without them in the picture. I feel they'd still be evicted eventually but that's when they're up against favorites like onyeka, wanni, Handi, Kelly Rae, kassia, and Shaun.

The 4 housemates I'd like to see get evicted on Sunday are:
1. Sooj
2. Victoria
3. Chizoba
4. Topher

if you're voting based on entertainment and not stanship, you'd agree with me these are the top 4 most boring housemates that are up for eviction

Bennytwin:
I am telling you. I don't like Onyeka but to be frank,Onyeka has shown herself just like Handi,Wanni,the mbadiwe twins!

If there was ever to be a legit winner,it should be one of those mentioned above!

See this dance challenge or whatever, those mbadiwes can't dance to save themselves but they are doing their best! That's what we want to see....

Onyeka, Wannixhandi,or Mbadiwe for the win!!!!

I totally agree with you.

Not a fan of Onyeka but you gotta agree she's been on her game since day one.
People were legit defending the ever boring Victoria in week three saying she's yet to show her true self. I just wish she leaves this sunday

Giel:
Earlier in the season I said I wonder if the sponsors are regretting sponsoring this season because of the lack of interest evidenced by the low followers the housemates are getting it was like I didn't know I was saying
Now biggie is lashing out

Also
Same thing I said about the housemates saying the parrot is boring as if they say anything interesting for the parrot to repeat.

I understand why big brother is frustrated sha.
He has sent Ebuka to shake table for 3 straight weeks and nothing happened.
Sent parrot nothing.

Once again big brother deserves
next year he'll pick better housemates.

They still have time to entertain us within the remaining weeks. Biggie could bring in fake housemates that are popular on social media to inject more energy into the show. He could as well carry out a fake eviction.
These housemates are too relaxed and behave like they don't wanna step on eggshells. They claim they don't want to fake a fight whilst still faking their lives there. Constantly tolerating things they wouldn't tolerate outside the house is fake enough for me.

Fault is on big brother though. That custodian challenge set the precedence. Housemates became afraid of confronting their fellow housemates just so they remain in each other's good books and eventually evade eviction should they be nominated.

I understand Big brother needed to bring a new twist to the show but who ever suggested that custodian and immunity nonsense deserves to be fired

Uwosom:
The small drama Onyeka is bringing, viewers have been dragging her. And you people are saying they are boring. Same viewers will drag these HMs to filth. Let them be boring in peace. Show will soon kuku end.

The dragging in itself gan gan is the show

Badadvisor:
It's been 10 years and you are still this petty.

I'm your senior here. Sharap your mouth

OZIOGU1:
Ordinary suya wey i buy for Maiduguri yesterday, after eating i discard the paper omo Tinubu picture dey there na so them insist i must take the paper to anywhere dem no go see am, is not funny, is as bad that i am also been tagged as Tinubu people coz, i am from north central.

It's that bad really

Heyzee5:
Welcome back! I hope you reflected on the past 10yrs........10yrs is a long time in the life of a man ooo!!

Things got worse

I finally got released from nairaland prison after 10yrs

Unionised:
I'm pretty sure there are other means of getting redress on this forum.
Seems lessons not learnt.
This monker also needs banning...

I didn't respond to you in 2014 because I got banned eventually. Just know that you are a compound f**l

Anyone that tries to hoist Tinubu flag any where in the North, East, and South, except SW, will probably face mob action and persecution.

Finally back after a 10 years ban
