We can all keep wailing about the kidnappings and increased spate of crimes while blaming the government for everything, but as long as a vocal and sizeable number of young people continue to excuse away questionable and unexplainable sources of wealth under the guise of "Did you question his poverty?" or as it's more commonly stated crudely in the South " All way na way ", the insecurity is only going to get worse.

Just this week, right on this thread, fraud was being justified by certain people. Right on Facebook, kidnappings are excused away. Then human trafficking, armed robbery, and worse.

Blame the government, blame Nigeria, blame the heroes past (and the anti-heroes), but you are a ruining crime apologist because it favours you and yours.

It's not by noise.

Ironically, the same website you quoted posited Kroos isn't fit to lace Xavi's boots, while calling Xavi "the engine room".

Those people saying Iwobi is no Okocha to excuse his mediocrity, please remember that Mikel Obi was no Okocha but was way better than Iwobi

Let that sink in when you want to pamper overgrown adults that parade as professional football players

Maybe; but then again, maybe not. Nostalgic bias? You seem to forget so quickly how Mikel used to get vituperative criticisms from football lovers for holding on to the ball a tad too longer than necessary, needless back passes when he should be forcing the attack, and slowing the pace of the team's attack.

Onazi was more attack-minded than Mikel.

Lmao.. Please count the 5 important players in the 4 UCL Madrid won that Kroos partook in.

I am waiting.
Also count the important players in the German team that won the world cup in 2014

Kroos was never in the conversation for the top 3 most influential players in the Madrid UCL-winning teams and the WC German team.

The IG model, Benzema, Modric, Ramos, and Casemiro were more decisive than him for the Madrid team.

Muller, Boateng, Neuer, and even Lahm were more influential to the German World Cup success.
----

In contrast, Xavi was Spain's and Barcelona's top 3 player for all of the stretched periods of dominance. So much so there's still a debate if he was denied a Balon d'Or or two - something nobody has said about Kroos.

Lmao.. You dey waste your time with this talk honestly.. 1 trillion

It's funny and laughable until you realize the group is chiefly a Northern group where the majority take what their thought leaders saying without questioning it.

And if you can spread the narrative to the unlearned man who has the same voting rights as you that Peter Obi has trillions stacked away which he hasn't made available to the hungry man, it begins to take shape.

And it's hard to change a core Northern man's perception once it forms. Elections would be here soon and he and his horde would vocalize it.

Remember how the rumour of Obi chasing non-Igbos away from Anambra as Governor raised its head during the campaigns? It started as a rumour a decade and a half before.

Exactly what I wanted to post. These people are hellbent on gaslighting that they'd finger a Peter Obi who left public office years ago for the rot they caused.

From "What would Peter Obi have done differently?" to "Peter Obi is responsible for everything going on".

Fans are completely fixated on the fun of trolling Ghana and South Africa all year long that we are looking past the actual game.

For us Twitter banter supersedes the possibilities of the 90 minutes on the pitch.

Since the cash crunch drama in January 2023, I only use fintech apps for everyday transactions. First time in weeks of transferring to a traditional bank vendor account on a weekend, got debited but seller isn't credited.

Of course, Nigerian vendors don't care. I'd have to pay regardless via any means while sorting out the issues myself during the weekdays or wait 72 hours.

I believe the analysis on the hard decision is the first thing he had to do before removing the subsidy. That announcement on his inauguration day is characteristics of a reckless leader.

hunger is the worst enemy of man and that's the new reality you're saying people should adjust because he want to form hard man.

I fault that ur statement

A presidential candidate wanting to be president of an import-dependent country who declared and reprimanded the citizens for worrying about the foreign exchange rates was never going to do any analysis of consequences.

The joke is on his minions who cheered him when he kept dropping distasteful and anti-economic-development takes during the campaigns.

Because my support for Obi was never a game. It was about the best candidate on the ballot managing Nigeria's affairs in these critical times.

In retrospect, we have come to realize all the "Obi would come a distant third" and "O lule" quips never mattered - we are all facing the consequences of people who thought and still think Nigeria's issues are nothing more than football cup games.

The times of the Oyibo Wall, it was popularised that both surnames had something to do with battle

Yes. Ekong means "war" in Ibibio. Ogun means "war" in Yoruba.

Balogun means "war general" in Yoruba. In Ibibio, it's "Otuekong".

So Ekong is actually " Otuekong" interchangeably.

Our Oyibo Wall have War Generals as their literal names.

I don't know why people are victimising the company making sniper (I don't even know the name of the company sef). Prior to when sniper became popular, depressed people have always found ways to commit suicide. This may sound insensitive, but it is what it is.

If we are serious about slowing down the rate of suicide in this country, then we should think about taking mental health serious, the government making the country a better to live, improving the citizen's standard of living etc.

Even if they stop producing sniper, those that are depressed will still find other means of unaliving themselves when things really get tough

More people die crossing highways than ingesting Sñiper.

More people would die today before 6PM crossing highways than the total number of people who'd ingest Sniper this week or month.
