Willy2025:There is Awolowo street in Umuahia. There is Adelabu street in Umuahia. There are streets, closes and estates named after Yorubas in Owerri, Rivers and Delta that I know. If anyone renames those streets, Igbos will find it funny. You'll hardly even find them sharing pics of streets named after Yorubas even with this foolish thoughtless moves in Eti-Osa. Nobody get that time. |
lexy2014:Yes. Our version of federalism is fake. In true federalism , the states or federating units have power over their resources and only remit a fraction to the FG They also have power over security, investments and economic development. They are more like self-governing units which behold to the federal center as a common unifier. They have so much power that they can easily secede if they choose to. If we had a true federal system, Moghalu, Sowore and Kwankwaso will not be hustling for political offices. We would have elected the best among us as premiers and the best among our class of premiers as Prime Minister. Federating units would have invested in areas where they have economic advantage such as Agriculture. They would have developed their tourist ans heritage sites and maintained their investments to boost their IGR. Corruption would have reduced as the focus would have been on revenue generation, not tribalism. FG wouldn't have needed to be borrowing money to fund budgets and money would not have been wasted on white elephant projects. Also, states would have been in competition with each other in all facets to be counted as the best. This was the era of groundnut pyramids and palm oil flow. This was the era when the Naira had more value than the dollar. Today, states are comatose because whether they generate funds or not, the FG will give them allocation and security votes. A fake federalism, this is.

Babangidapikin:Nigeria is a massive crime scene. Also, why use metal frames instead of concrete pillars, knowing they'll eventually rust and fall apart? Watch political scroungers plaster the structure with substandard materials and loot the rest of the money. Nigeria is a massive crime scene. |
Brahamimo:I don't respond to PM's. Talk to me here on NL or mention me on a dead thread. |
Hespee93:Snatch it, grab it and run with it. __Balablu the shameless, 2023 |
Normally, ECOWAS no get shame. Una no see Kenya and South Africa to copy, na Nigeria. Wetin dey do una strong pass Olumo Rock.

Adaisback:Lol. E sure me die say nobody send the guy even for im village. That's Igbos for you. But convincing Ghanaians that this is just some harmless act is where the problem lies. |
FG should reform the Nigerian police. Its long overdue. Where things are working, it should be the police that would be fighting terrorists, bandits and criminals. It is a dysfunctional nation that releases its combative military forces for internal crisis responses. The army is trained to kill, take hostage or torture. Unleashing them on civilian population means havoc on the people and an eventual softening of the hardness that the military is known for. Take the police off roadblocks, take them off special duties, return them to beats, equip them with kits and uniforms and pay them handsomely. Why would crime not reduce? |
FreeStuffsNG:You will still expire from Nairaland in shame. Highest na eight years.

RollinTNDA:The word is Tolerate, not enjoy. I'll rather mange needles for ten seconds than sniff drugs that will be turning my belly when I no be Tinubu. |
Oga even had golden throne and palace? No be parallel kingdom be dis? Let's be calling a spade a spade bikonunu. Celebrate your culture as you wish but setting up a parallel rulership in a strange land? That's an affront that no reasonable human being should condone abeg. |
I'm a one-woman kind of man. I shudder at and detest premarital and extramarital affairs. So, yeah, it's a given that adultery and fornication are not in my lexicon. I can't imagine myself doing otherwise. Una wen dey sample numerous people, how una take dey sleep for night abeg?

Ọ́mị̀ị́ko. Oluwa comfort his family. One reason why I always fear politics. Everything can be arranged, including fatal accidents. Hope he wasn't intentionally cut off in his prime. Rest on, Brotherman.

Calling somebody out over N3k? I don't understand how some people can never let go when it comes to money. Admit you were just foolish and let life continue. But to be ranting online over 3k? Beats the living shit out of me. |
God never speaks to Nigerian prophets about fire outbreaks, flooding, bandit attacks and the economy. It is usually about the next elections, football and sensational predictions that forex traders can even do far better in. Funniest thing is, the same God who told this prophet about one thing will tell primate Ayodele another thing entirely. Make dem jus dey wash our heads dey go

lebete3000:Your mate owns Facebook and Whatsapp and Instagram you dey Nairaland dey find who go lead you astray

What if she was just unconscious, passed out? She looks like someone who just suddenly switched off without warning. Basic CPR classes should be more mandatory than BVN and NIN. Btw, her number is not on WhatsApp and would most likely not be on other social media platforms. Let them charge her phone and dial her contacts. Ọmịko. |
Hippo is on the loose killing people and government and environmental protection agencies didn't step in to track and relocate them. Youths did what they could to safeguard lives and you-all are crying foul and shouting legal actions. Legal actions my foot. Btw, that must be the thickest kpomo I've ever seen in a long while.

WritterNg:The fact is that Israel has a better air force than Iran and Bibi is still alive and well. Rest.

So, even if a president is immune from prosecution in his country, he can be picked up and prosecuted by another country? I didn't call names, but one president like dat should reduce hand in traveling o.

Sane Nigerians rejected the mandate grabber at the polls. We all knew he had nothing to offer. I say this again, we should pass a legislation banning illiterates from voting during elections. We can't have people who cannot see beyond their noses enthroning daft leaders for us every four years.

Let them install it in Elon Musk's brain fess. Seun and the forty Bots

Op, were did you copy this from? Because this is doesn't sound like a Nigerian wrote it, and is definitely not written for a Nigerian relationship. You'll think taking out the trash is romantic until they start punishing you for not taking it out. Little gestures fuel entitlement until you regret the day you chose to start helping. Be like say na to marry from other parts of Africa sure pass sef. |
Kemetian:You know nothing about macroeconomics. You think trade is about sentiments? Favourable balance of trade implies developing and exporting commodities you're good at and importing the ones you're weak in. Nigeria has leverage in gold, petroleum, cash crops, human capital etc. These are markets that should be given unfair advantage and developed. We currently don't produce enough rice to feed ourselves, not to even talk about export. We have no business blockading imports of things we don't sufficiently produce, or forcing products we're not good at, down people's throats. I would choose a Swiss watch over a Nigerian watch any day. I would choose Nigerian palm oil over palm oil from anywhere else. Our leaders are either ignorant or don't take their advisers seriously. |
If you love bushmeat, either eat that vermin or give it away o. If you prepare it for your dogs and they acquire the taste, they'll come to expect spiced bushmeat anytime they make a kill. The day you disappoint them and eat it with your children, if those dogs no inject rabies for una body make i know wetin cause am.

Image123:So Peter Obi only started donations in January 2025? |
Entanglement:So, the person who's sleeping with someone they're not married to is not morally bankrupt? Mumuness on the beat. |
Kingpele:Lol. Who dey watch the rubbish? P*rn is everywhere on the internet, even AI can now curate shit according to your most evil fantasies. Who get time to dey spend subscription on softp*rn wen no get head and tail? Men done wise up. |
I thought they said North Korea is a joyless nation? How come their girls are allowed to wear bikini and go to beaches? But on a serious note, wouldn't they world be a better place if dictators who have sound ideas of growth and development assume office and take the right decisions? Why do some people campaign against dictatorship? Look at Ibrahim Traore's Burkina Faso developing right before our very eyes? Why would we have a very passionate revolutionary only to replace him after four or eight years with billions of dollars wasted in conducting elections? Why would such a person not be a life president? |
