I'm still amazed at how China became the second-most powerful country on planet earth. Despite everything the Brits stole from its colonies, it couldn't surpass its former colonies like China and the US.

Now, Tinubu wants to shoot up Nigeria from its $290 billion economy to $1 trillion within 5 years by taxing Nigerians without looking back. The dumbest Nigerians run this country!!

My own shock is the gap between the first two and the third

A 79-year-old British multimillionaire, Sir Benjamin Slade, is seeking a young woman to have a son to inherit his fortune and continue his lineage.

Sir Benjamin Slade, a 79-year-old British baronet and owner of the 1,300-acre Maunsel House estate in Somerset, is advertising for a woman in her 20s or 30s to marry and produce a male heir, offering an annual salary of up to £50,000 plus perks like private jet access.

This echoes his 2025 public appeals for a 'good breeder' to secure his lineage, as he lacks a direct male descendant despite past surrogacy attempts abroad, highlighting tensions between aristocratic traditions and modern inheritance laws.

The post has ignited diverse reactions on X, from satirical volunteer offers and jokes about his timing to broader discussions on declining birth rates and cultural shifts away from traditional family structures in the UK.

"No women from countries beginning with I or with green in their flag" essentially disqualifies Nigerians

I’m on the verge of being rusticated in school

October when I was writing my final exams, something happened just 1 day to end the exam. So me and my friend wrote on our question paper and we exchanged it between ourselves. When I was writing this initiator started searching everyone he got to me and he search me there was nothing on me, he search my booklet yet nothing, he ask me where is my question paper and I showed him just the front because it was the back we wrote on, when he saw it he flipped the back and saw the question paper and ask me who wrote this and what is all this I told him I wrote it with all the back and font he told me to sit down

Minute later he went outside and bought exam malpractice form and gave me and others those who were using chukuli, phones, book and other material to write.

I beg him that I wrote it, all pleading fell to deaf ear, when I saw he was yielding and time was going and no time to beg I just had to fill the paper. I filled it so I can beg him later so I would be able to write something

To get the long story short, 3 days later I was invigated to the student disciplinary board to explain what happened Which I did, I pleaded and beg that it won’t happen again, thry told me I will be punished but not expelled
In my school examination malpractice is straight expulsion no matter who you may know.

2 days later I got I call from my classrep that I was given 2years rustication. I called the Hod and course adviser and they said it true, I check the name of student expelled my name wasn’t there, I confirm from the student discplinary board and truly I was recommended 2 years suspension but the result will be out on February 17th this year, and when it out my student portal will be shutdown immediately

Even since then I have been sad, depressed and lonely and I can’t even tell my parents because they will be disappointed in me, I have been carrying a burden since early November and now it January, I have been thinking none stop, I have been contemplating suicide to be honest, I don’t pray this kind of situation for my worst enemies and those who haven’t been will never truly knows the pain it cause till you’re in the situation

Please i need help and words of encouragement
Even if you blame me, the dead has already been done, I Bleep up and I accepted my mistake

Please guys I’m dying In silence, I can’t even wait till February 17th, it killing me knowing few days to graduation I was rusticated, what will I tell my parent, or people that have help me one way or another in school. I’m devastated to be honest

I might be ending it any moment from now because this pain is unbearable for me, I just want it to end so I can live a normal life again but I can’t keep living like this. Ignore my typo error

Please someone should help me push it to front page

The first thing Is for you to tell your parents.
They will be disappointed but it's best they know and offer support (if they can and want)
If they react otherwise just be patient, they will come around youre still their child .

Then wait out your two years , for now nothing you can do to go back to that school except wait for 2 years . Or go and start over in another school and behave well this time around.

Goodluck

Meanwhile you can transition to tech if you have interest to stay busy during the two years suspension

Feeding yourself with half baked and FAKE news like the OP does will always keep you confused.

If you followed REAL events, you would not be asking What it has to do with the country oil?
As the Trump led United states clearly and boldly put the reasons for removing the Venezuelan Dictator.
One of which was
The Venezuelan regime nationalized and expropriated, without compensation, OIL facilities belonging to American companies, and later refused to pay the billions of dollars in compensation awarded against it in World Bank arbitration.


Always Make Comprehensive Factual study and analysis of events, so you dont ask or talk beer parlour gists.

Israeli Puppet

We all know its the voice of Esau and the hands of Jacobs at work..... The Zionist have been on Venezuela cos of its cooperations with Iran. The Venezuela operations
Is not about Narcotics
It's not about Maduro or his gangs
It's about ISRAEL and ISRAEL only cos Maduro is allowing Hebollah gain a foothold in Latin America.
The oil is added extra

Very fake

Penguin2:
Lol!

Agbadorians will find themselves in intensive care units today 🤣.

With this, it means Obi/Kwankwaso is still a possibility in 2027.

Kwankwaso must have realized his foolishness in 2023 by refusing to be running mate to Peter Obi and is ready to grab it with his 2 arms this time around.

Alternatively, this could be the Kwankwasiyya Movement splitting themselves into two. One in APC and the other in ADC. So that whichever side that wins, they will be good. Just my thoughts.

Atiku is too ambitious for all these permutations to work.
When the time comes , he will deploy his well oiled political machinery and those who have witnessed him in action knows he goes hard.
But I Pray he allow reason prevail and step down for Obi kwamkwaso ticket

Saddam and Ghaddaffi had weapon of mass destruction too.

Even the late Mandela was a terrorist.

The fact that people like you fall for the same script amazes me. They replay it right infront you, and still will do, and you still will fall for it!

You still don’t know in 2026 that, the US demonizes there targets with the media to justify their atrocities!

Let me agree with you that it is war on drugs. Is Venezuela in too 3 countries exporting drugs to the US?

Why not China? That’s the brainbox of Fentanyl. Why hasn’t China been invaded?

Remind me please, what recently happened to former Honduras President Juan Orlando Hernández who was CONVICTED of trafficking drugs to the US?

You see, it’s not that you don’t know the truth, you just happen to have been mentally conquered and psychologically extorted. Your mind and reasoning is not yours but owned by what conquered you.

I like what China is doing with the fentanyl epidemic only that they are doing to the wrong country, they should flood the UK with the drugs
Just like the British did to China with Opium.

Solseal007:
Hard working men don't patronize sex workers esp those refered to in this context, most hardworking men have permanent girlfriends and sex partners who are mutual benefactors. Within this context of the writer he's referring to the economical prostitutes- those who bargain with and target high enders to improve their life! No ordinary worker pay attention to those girls, they have a niche and target customers

I agree with you. The point is that men work hard to make the money and it should not be an issue how they chose to spend it, even if it's on Prostitutes and I don't buy the idea that harsh economy pushes hard working women to Prostitution

Kano governor has made up his mind to defect to APC. I don't know what they all see in APC.

If that happens and Kano is in the bag for APC, then congratulations to Tinubu in advance for his victory in 2027 election.

When them say north get the numbers, na Kano dem dey talk about o.

You Sabi naija politics
There are 4 major Power centers and if you have 3 out of the 4 you are good to go
Lagos
Rivers
FCT
Kano.

Lagos and Rivers provides the money, Amechi was the rivers man in Buhari government, in this government it is Wike and Fubara

The politicians are seeing what the ordinary citizens are not seeing and are Positioning themselves to be the ultimate beneficiaries.
The Prayer of APC now is that the economy make a turn around as they are envisaging so that they will use that to campaign
If the economy refuses to make a turn around for the better, the APC will have a problem and the coalition may just carry the day.
Interesting times ahead

HacheNoire:
After 2027 election, I will not welcome any Biafra agitation.

This is the perfect time for Igbo’s to take the bull by the horn.

Anyone who is not pro Biafra should be voted out. If they cannot get a majority of pro Biafrans who will move and sponsor a bill for referendum, then case closed.

Their future in their hands and will not welcome the narrative that Yoruba or Hausa are the ones holding them back.

Go pro Biafra all through and I can guarantee wins. Not online banters when you all vote people who don’t share beliefs with you but quick to accuse another region of your owns!

Pro Biafran candidate or nothing! APGA should be doing that but it is already on the Nigeria side.

For years Many Nigerians have proposed this and even asked NK to contest elections as this is the best way to go
But what did IPOB and NK do?
Along with their foot soldiers on nairaland like gidgiddy and others on twitter called everyone names

Now y'all are going to the same solution told you years ago and could have avoided all the bloodshed and violence

onyxo76:
okay o, some truth in this write up

So who are the people paying for the sex?

The same poor men who toil night and day to make some money right

So, if the men are that foolish to be spending their earnings on lazy women should that be a cause for national debate?

Is it not the men that are making the money in this harsh economy that are using their hard earned money to do what they enjoy?

If the economy is that bad, where are the men getting the money to spend on the women?

This write up no make any sense to me, cos there's money to be spent on women by men who make the money , so what is the problem

And when I see blanket generalization like this I ask the Op, are your sisters and the women in your family all into this to make you make such a bold generalization
The fact is that the vast majority of women out there are busy and hardworking even the so called Prostitutes
Because Prostitution is a career in advanced countries
Stop using your underdevelopment mentality when making global comparisons

2027 is going to be the real religious war
Una think say we no know say the Christian Genocide cry from America is in not in isolation and is tied directly to 2027?

saintbillion:
I've been so moody since this incident

get a lawyer for advice

Kukutente23:
So what happened to the case in court?
You haven't said anything to contradict what I wrote. Your initial dubious claim was that Makinde it was who "betrayed" him by forcing him to take the crown. Now you're saying it was his fellow chiefs. How many mouths do you have as an APC minion?

Which case in court?
Since you know it was settled out of court provide evidence or STFU

Kukutente23:
Reduce the lies abeg
It was an agreement to settle out of court so the last Olubadan could ascend the throne without any legal issues
Your Ajimobi was the one who messed up the system not Makinde
We know zombies now hate Makinde for daring to speak up and will start spewing lies from the stable of agbadeau to rubbish him as that's the usual MO but leave lies in this matter. What happened was public knowledge

Which settle out of court? You don't know the details but too proud to ask, I will tell you anyway.
The law was gazetted and his lawyers saw that he won't become Olubadan if he didn't take the Otun crown (una call am carton crown, na una problem be that) and advised him to go and take it ..... Nothing like out of court settlement.
It was at the inauguration of the other 10 as Oba which he boycotted that the gazetted law was distributed.
The deciding factor in Ladoja soft peddling was when the other 10 chiefs pointedly told him he was being Selfish with his stands on the matter....that having been a Senator and Governor, enjoying power and it's benefits he doesn't want them to also feel the perks of power deserving of their position....that was when he went on fresh fm to announce that he has now accepted the crown

yarimo:
Peter obi and oby ezekwesili will never react or condemn this, since it wasn't in Lagos state.

Obi is busy preparing his new year epistle and working out the right words to use to break Obidients heart when they will learn that he will be deputizing for AA.

Heartbreaks and lots of tears await the headless mob in January

opes:
It is now clear to everyone how he made a profit of $1 million from a $1 million contract at the age of 29. I keep saying it that those he is fighting are 'tradpo' (traditional politicians), they know how to play the game, he can't win them

But he has used their heads to become a two term governor

To me , Makinde won and those "tradpo" lost.

Makinde isn't my ideal type of Politician, I prefer Brother Siaka anytime any day.
With Ajimobi, you know what to expect, but Makinde is a chameleon

stuffs2002:
I don't think Makinde and his people are smart for them to ever think they could lie their way out of a whopping N50 billion from FG. How could they think FG would release a whole N50 billion and there would not be records kept that can be published at any time.

It seems Makinde and Obi are related somehow because they both are:-
*Political thieves who try to purtray a holly appearance
* They both want to be president through wuruwuru ways
* Makinde's IQ is as low as Obi's IQ

I was disappointed with the release from Makinde media aide, Sulaimon Olanrewaju, and he claims to be a pastor o.

EponObi:
Makinde is not a savvy politician at all. Wike and Fayose dem go too rubbish am.

He got me fooled too. I didn't expect he can do something like this. Yes all politician are thieves, but I never expected Seyi Makinde to loot in this manner. First it was an intervention fund from the FG. 50 billy for that matter, to cater for the damages and the victims of the bomb blast. That was a massive relief fund so big he didn't have to take anything from the state coffers to take care of this own citizens. Yet, he looted it without mercy.

Talking shit to Tinubu is not even the issue. The issue is going through that lane when you know the kind of person Tinubu is and that he has seen you finish.

People are asking where Fayose got the info. Lol. From Tinubu, of course. This is Tinubu fighting Makinde by proxy. Jagaban won't join him to do roforofo talk. He has capable people for that - that has always been his MO.

Makinde go see shege. That sainthood and aura of competence that has always surrounded him will by demystified before he leaves office.

No one is saying you shouldn't run for presidency but he was too childish about it talking nonsense as if he's clean and as if his opp doesn't know where he keeps his dirty laundry.

In all this Makinde Wahala I blame no other person than the Olubadan himself who felt he was targeted by Late Ajimobi with the Ibadan Chieftancy reforms and therefore formed a coalition that made Makinde Governor . At the end of the day, Makinde still went back to the Chieftancy reforms and implemented what Ladoja was against and dared him not to accept and lose out in becoming Olubadan

If Makinde could betray the one that's instrumental to his becoming governor, nobody should be surprised that hes going against Tinubu whom he betrayed his party for
But since he's dealing with the Jagaban, he will meet his masters there,

hope4nigeria:
you will be very devastated before the end of this glorious operation, the pain will be too much for you

Admit you were wrong in Saying FG gave the intelligence they don't have

AMINDA:
A request for disbursement is not tantamount to money being released, although I expect Tinubu's camp to lap it up. Wale Edun already told us the budget was largely unfunded with a lot of revenue shortfalls. If core capital projects from 2024 are still being carried over into 2026 with trillions owed to local contractors, are we to believe that the Tinubu government was magnanimous enough to release a 50 billion naira largesse to Seyi Makinde simply because it was requested for?

Go back and read the Memo very well
It was stated that an amount was disbursed and the table was for the disbursement and Oyo state was clearly disbursed to.

Makinde is throwing stones when he lives in a glass house
He messed up by revealing what was discussed behind closed door cos of his ambition forgetting these people know his secrets
Whoever is advising Makinde to pursue his Presidential Ambition the same time with Tinubu no really like am, and if na him dey reason am by himself, he is duller than I presumed him to be
How he wan take win the same man he betrayed his party for remains to be seen but is not likely to succeed

“Lost to taliban” ke…the Biden administration pulled out of Afghanistan because it wanted to teach the incumbent leadership a lesson! Are they not thesame ragtag terrorists in Syria? Who do you think installed the new president(a former terrorists) and months later he appeared at the White House under trump’s administration…

Biden wanted to teach Trump a lesson so he left Afghanistan for the Taliban
Then trump countered by giving Syria to ISIS and to rub in the salt, welcomed Alshahara to the white house.
Makes me think Politicians are all the same everywhere

SisterAnn:
But FG gave the intelligence. Could it be FG is misleading the US for obvious reasons?

"Tinubu Gave Go-ahead For US Strikes, Nigeria Provided Intelligence — FG - Politics - Nigeria" https://www.nairaland.com/8588005/tinubu-gave-go-ahead-us-strikes

Hear yourself, FG gave the intelligence

Abeg which intelligence Nigeria government get wey US no get
Can anyone really mislead the master of deceptions and false flag operations?
The US know what they are doing
Can't say same for Nigeria
