What have you done before?

Zenith bank really dealt with me as i'm not good at holding cash, prefer to use my atm everywhere i go. But today, that solidary to zenith bank has ended and i'd advise anyone who plans to travel to hold cash. First hand experience is a bitch. I knew there was issue when i tried to purchase some sourvenirs and my card declined (God punish zenith bank). I went to the station to ride back to my hotel and my card declined at the entrance. I explained to the securities (guy and lady - FREAKING BLACKS) about my issue and they stated to me clearly that they couldnt help. I was disappointed to say the least. I was stranded and no internet or sim card to make a call back to my hotel.

I had to borrow my friend's (An angel) card details to order uber ride. About $47 back to my hotel & a 36mins ride. Before i left, i told the security that if he was in nigeria and in such situation people not just me would have helped out. And that as blacks i was disappointed with the hospitality. Didnt wait to hear what they had to say i left.

They are just doing their job bro, you should be disappointed with your 'international' bank and perhaps lack of adequate preparations for a fall back plan, back up card, pre-paid card, e-sim or roam your sim

it's a learning experience I'm sure

More pictures please

$5/mo is a luxury I doubt even 250k can reliably afford in Nigeria.

Na wa o

But I thought everyone lived on banana island in Nigeria and worked remotely earning foreign dols

Netflix, Prime, Rok

autoez:
I agree. Tell me more about the fashion export. I'm interested

Not an expert but with citizens all over the world. Naija tailors, ready to wear entrepreneurs are exporting their skills and products.

Weddings, aso-ebi etc are sourced from Nigeria.
There's a guy i saw yesterday on IG posting his orders to UK, Canada, US etc with bulk orders for gele and Aso oke caps

Another lady with RTW outfit made with Ankara or Aso Oke pants, Bubu etc

autoez:
It still doesn't reflect in our economy

very hard to notice in an economy like ours with gaping holes everywhere.

Evident in Lagos, SW, Benin, PH real estate though

Entertainment by extension
And Fashion export

autoez:
UK should take half of our population please because many Nigerians are useless to their fellow Nigerians. They should open their doors wider abeg

But let’s pause and think. The visa fee is £700. Multiply that by 120,000 successful Nigerian applicants—that’s £84 million generated just from Nigeria alone in 2024. And that doesn’t even include the thousands of rejected applications. Now double that for countries like India. Imagine how much the airlines are making each year from these migrations and round trips.

Truly, the people running the world are playing chess while others are still figuring out checkers. They know exactly what they’re doing.

So true, now imagine on the flip side.

120,000 Nigerians sending lets say just £200 back home every month, that's £24m monthly into the Nigerian economy - ~N48 Billion/year. That's nearly half of what is budgeted for Health 2024

Now imagine how much Nigeria will earn from citizens ordering Goat meat, Palm oil, Poundo yam etc

Got to hear her now -- http://www.channelstv.com/home/live/ -- full of aplomb and bragaddocio

Okereke-Onyuike : SEC and its goons took madam's birth certificate along with her marriage certificate? .. "Stock exchange does not have any money for anyone to steal.
I am not an angel, but I can say the word "stealing" or "killing" does not exist in my dictionary. If there was any money, maybe I can pinch a little. But there is no money"

Gold of yesteryears

What cards are accepted now?

15 years later we haven't achieved the 6000MW target set by him

I wish it can be broken down further,

How many wrote exams at 8am, 12noon and later
What are their scores

1 week notice ....hope they have adequately repaired the alternative routes.

great story..

Mention their names...

or the

Court handling the case

Cooper in complexion


That's a first for me!

Smartwave:
The two are criminal offence

Sure, so they're asking for an apology for plagiarism or financial misconduct or both?

A group of professionals in the Epe community in Lagos State, has accused the Local Government Chairman, Princess Surah Olayemi Animashaun, of plagiarism, demanding a public apology within 72 hours or she will face legal action.

Apologise for the plagiarism or financial misconduct?

Legal action for plagiarism or financial misconduct?

Instead of entering at a safe speed of around 150-160 mph,

Who is the ITK person, how's 150-160 mph safe speed

kay29000:
Nope, not lagos-ibadan. I drove through the road this morning, and it is fantastic...it's in the best state I have ever seen the road since I can remember. They're talking about the Iwo road to Ojoo road in Ibadan. It is a federal road in Ibadan.

Great, many thanks for the clarification

When will the tolling of the road start so there are funds for maintenance

This Lagos- Ibadan expressway is still ongoing?

8years of Buhari/Fashola

Why don't you release the little fish for some other time to grow and future catch?

Putindbutt:
That's his own side of the story, every corrupt people have their own side too. How about the billions that was looted linked to him?, he'd explain himself in court.

What was the reason he wasn't tried after the 'probe'

Or the SW cabals controlling HMO just wanted to remove him

miyagi01:
No be this mumu dey misyarn lately. You massively embezzled funds and still have the gut to criticize the govt. you wey suppose keep shut dey chop your money

Why is he not in prison? How come the EFCC are still investigating after 5 years....

Carndidlaydid:
This man should have just kept his mouth shut




You Nigerians have serious issues

Didn't the man embezzle money

Yes or No

If he embezzled money why has he not been locked up? Or its the same tactics of granting people bail with no end result just to keep them quiet

Still working or back in the engineering shed?

Arostar2023:
Who knows who!
For those who don't know, she is the wife of the son of Prince Abubakar Audu. Although, looking at her pedigree, she looks smart and capable.

where?

02Kebreal:
She is not Hausa,she is Igala from Kogi State.
Wife of Mustapha the late Prince Abubakar Audu's son.
She's neither Hausa nor Yoruba.

I thought Mustapha already has an appointment

Not a single kidnapper was arrested, no name, no location? No links to previous kidnapping.

That's the end of the investigation

Good job script NPF

Good choice

He later served as Transport Secretary for the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), where he continued implementing progressive policies to enhance mobility in the nation’s capital.

but, cant see the effect of his work in FCT, public transport in the FCT is piss poor

I hope he champions the extension of the Lagos-Ibadan rail to Ilorin or Abuja. Lagos- Ibadan is too short to pull in the revenue required to maintain operations

Seun:
hear, hear!

For some reason, Frank Nweke Jnr came to mind when I saw the topic currently on the front page

How far now

leksymaxy:
Someone should pls help me with the price of the ride now from lagos to ibadan (agege station) and I have a one year old baby, will I need to pay for her too?

About 3,600

try to book online using their app in advance

Natbrowny:
200k and above. Depending on Hospital and what kinda DNA u wanna do (paternal or maternal or both)

And you're all telling baba marufu to get one done for all his children, person wey never chop see road

Exousiang01:
You have obviously never bought a piece of land in your life. if you have any property you would know that nobody can disturb you after you have finished building a now and you have your documents....
You lowlifes will just be running your mouth....

They have been disturbing him, is he the only house owner around there? He is educated why did he take the case up legally and present his documents showing he truly owns the property?
Again I condemn the demolishing of his house but this is questionable

In this same Nigeria?

Are you by any chance insinuating omo onile's respect documents and legal procedures?
