Bukola94:
U see what Madueke & Palmer has done, they need to be encouraged & given standing ovation. So you really want Chelsea to go relegation? If Chelsea keep playing well & work hard, they'll finish in top4

Remember wolves gave us tough time last season

So nice one beating them this way

All those teams that humiliated us last season

We will get our revenge

Maresca is organizing the team small small

NiceLegs:
Very true.

I couldn't agree more.

I just fear for Burna boy.

When he eventually gets kicked off the scene by the newbies, I see him turning fully into DRUGS to stay sane in mind, body and soul.

It is well.

All they should do is enjoy it while it lasts

Because it's will sure come

NiceLegs:
P- Square.

How the mighty have fallen.

See ehn.

In this life, stay humble.

Becos the dicing is still rolling.

Actually no King rules for ever

Example someone like Michael Jackson. His superstar Dom in the 1980s was beyond this world

Michael Jackson s thriller album still holds the highest selling album of all time
With over 100million sales

But by the 1990s R$B, Hip hop, Rap and Rock music dethroned king Michael Jackson

He never recovered till he died

Fame, superstar Dom is fleeting
It doesn't last

Even the burna boy, Davido, wizkid, rema s etc reigning today

Soon they will be knocked off

Most present day upcoming artists ... if in Flavour position and ordered to get off stage would've left ... made a phone call ... then all hell will break loose and lives lost. I'm almost sure maybe ... maybe just a few would reason like Flavour ... we are both same artistes ... what it is that make the crowd go wild after them and not me? ... what is it they are doing that I'm not? With that kind of reasoning.... why wouldn't he rise and keep rising? Is a lot to learn from this page in his life

Today
They want everything sharp sharp

One has to be patient, Cool and calm to learn the ropes

Years put in matters a lot
Also the failures, shame , heartache are all part of the learning curve

Just like in business investments
Someone will come and take me for a Ride

When I have experienced pains that blew millions from me over a decade ago

It was sorrows and heartache

But it was worth it
And a great life's Lessons
For the good things coming my way today

But today young people want it sharp sharp

Story

There are many places one can invest in Nigeria

I am personally investing in the East

East is the future

There's boundless opportunities for
New cities, a growing population with good HDI index, soundly educated population

We should leave these old men

They don't have iota of what the future holds

They are still living in the past

Look at China
20 years ago

China was completely underdeveloped, they were at the backward of Development

But they took the bull by the horn

Today China have new world class cities apart from Beijing and Shanghai that are well known

They have Shenzhen, guanzough, Quinping, etc that can give any global city a run for the money

I am thinking towards the East

Other regions should plan out there own modern future cities

But to invest in saturated Lagos
I no believe that one

Young people/ Younger generations should begin to expand there mind possibilities

Don't listen to all these older generation

They are the ones that left Nigeria in ruins

Our world is advancing

Don't ever let anybody hold you down by there limited, minds that can see far

qtx:
They are looking for who they will begin to manipulate and intimidate up and down to do their bidding. Never again. We will give them Wike(if him no go turn round begin the beat all of them with him sturbonness )

exactly we will give them Wike

Na him go fit everybody

North wants to eat there cake and have it

Vadese1:
My thoughts as well. I will vote obi any day and any time, but if Jonathan decides to run, I will also suggest our beloved obi step down so that Jonathan can chase away this calamity call Tinubu.

But the North ganged up to drag Jonathan out

He should just mind his business and stay out of this one

Even we in the East won't support him

Do you know the kind villainy we surfered for him in the East?

We will use wisdom and not play into anyone s hand

After all the North chased same Jonathan away

And brought calamity on Nigerians

Now they want to eat there cake and have it

Igbos should calculate there moves wisely and smartly
And not allow anyone play them like a puppet on the strings

I don talk my own finish

North and there drama

We in the East will sit down dey watch them intently

Thought they said Jonathan wasn't good enough

So what happened again?

googi:
Everywhere in the world, they will confirm how educated Nigerians are. But what do they do with the education?

Use it to turn the richest country in Africa into abject Poverty stricken people after foreign oil income!

Lee kwua yew Singapores late former prime minister made this statement;

Common sense -open mind

It's not about getting degrees but having the common sense and open mind to turn into positivity and profit yielding act

ActiveFarms:
Why are we so greedy that we sell our posterity into slavery. The moneys gotten from 20,000 acres from mechanized farming over 100 years is at least going to be 5,000 times the amount that would be paid for them. Why does Africa continually produce inept leaders without any futuristic ideologies or vision at all. Once they see a little piece, they loose control. This is an absolute wrong decision and a cover by Elon for a much bigger agenda

There's enough land for farming

Skylink coming into the Nation isn't bad at all

Any country that wants to open up must be opened to foreign investment which helps in developing the citizens of the country of investment via technology transfer

This was the same strategy Lee Quan yew of Singapore used in transforming her country today into a prosperous and advanced country
By making it easy for foreign multinational corporations to invest in Singapore

Today Singapore is a global financial center
According to reports from financial Times

Over 4 trillion dollars passed through Singapores financial system as a reputable financial services hub second to New York with over 8 trillion dollars passing through it

This is what a little Nation could do as a result of visionary leadership

chccho:
Very very few i must say. If u are lucky to find them never let go of them and make sure u guard them with your life

They are very very very few

But if one gets one
Never take them for granted
Guard them with your Life

SpaceX:
Stop the bullsh.t most couples are miserable even the "enjoying" ones are fake. Dr. Charles opoki can attest to it, he said for marriage to "work" the man has to be "foolish". Now tell me how is that a happy union?

Most of them talking this crap never lived with a woman and never observed even there close relatives, associates and friends

I have never seen so called enjoyment couples

When you get close you will see it's all facade

There are still understanding and empathetic spouses around

But they are extremely rare
Very very few

Originalsly:
Millions of men have married women ... been living happy married lives ever since and continue to do so. Do you not know this? Wouldn't it be best to find out why these men are successful and take pages out of their books? The majority of marriages that fail is because of the men.... and the marriage begin to fail on the wedding day because most men now jump into marriage for "face value" .... the woman is beautiful ... hot body ... plenty money ... never laying attention to the woman's character. When in the marriage and the woman begins to show her true colours he points his finger at her for the marriage crashing. It doesn't take much to find a woman to marry .... but ....

"He who finds a wife findeth a good thing."

Millions of men have married women ... been living happy married lives ever since and continue to do so. Do you not know this? Wouldn't it be best to find out why these men are successful and take pages out of their books?


Delusional grandure

Are you married
Your parents how is there marriage?
You have relatives, friends and associates that are married around you how is there marriage?

This your take is total crap

My parents are my model in marriage
They've been together now for 48yrs
Very sweet union

But still there marriage had flaws even from the whole sweetenes

My close relatives/associates are married some over 2 decades

But in all
I have seen
No marriage is Sweet or without challenges

The constant factor I have seen is understanding btw the partners

Once the partners understand themselves and have agreement

The challenges will be overcome

But coming online to yap that marriage is Sweet is total delusion

Marriage is filled with challenges
But if you have an understanding and working partner

The burden is easier

But woe betide you if you have a selfish, non empathetic and mean partner
The challenges can take ones Life

By the way human beings of nowadays are less empathetic and many are carlous and mean

But if one is very fortunate to get an understanding partner who have feeling for the others pains

It will be a wonderful ride

These kind of people are in very few numbers

Sonnobax15:

Heartbreak is something anyone shouldn't wish for,cuz no matter how strong you may think you're,but the moment your so much beloved partner activates the break up mode, it'll only take the grace of God to save you...

He's lucky,cuz bannies don't really worth the stress we,men subject ourselves to because of them.....

Me that went through so much heart break that almost took my life
Cause it affected my health seriously

If not for God and my loved ones around me
I would have been lieing 6ft under the ground

I took my health serious
With sound specialist doctors around me

I pulled through soundly

Learnt my lesson
My Life my enjoyment first before anything or anyone

I now set my priorities and perspectives now right

Chop Life very well
Eat classy food anywhere in the world I feel like as I traveled around the world
Enjoy some better cuisines

You see my Life

I go flex am well
Chop my money well
Enjoy my Life very well

Because Life is a gift and blessing from God to us

But to put my heart where woman dey

God forbid bad thing

Just use wisdom in dealing with them

So once they start acting anyhow
You are not surprised or shocked

Even Baba God no put him mind for where human beings dey

Na you go put your mind for your fellow human being

Wisdom is profitable to direct

Namaster:
Society has DAMAGED a lot of men.

When men get married, society FORCES them to make their wives the Alpha and Omega of their lives. They CAJOLE men to make their wives the CENTRE OF GRAVITY in their lives.

Men put their wives FIRST. Think of their wives FIRST. And make endless SACRIFICES to make them happy.

On the other hand, wives ALSO put themselves first. Think of THEMSELVES first. And DEMAND endless sacrifices from their husbands to make them happy.

Men need to understand:

Your life is like a BUILDING.

A woman, even your wife, must NEVER be the pillar of your life. Otherwise, get ready for the inevitable COLLAPSE.

Instead, a woman should be like a lightbulb. Makes the building nice and bright BUT if it goes out or gets spoilt or explodes, you just go out and REPLACE it.

Chikena.

When you add the women of this present generation and there attitudes
You will then begin to wander that men must be very wise

Putting mind where woman dey na extreme high risk

The shock for many men sometimes leads some to there death

Learnt my lesson from the past
Presently my dealings is with extreme caution

Still try my best for my woman

But to put my heart in the relationship
Never

Rather focus on my business, career, investments, to live a very good life

Enjoy myself to maximum

My woman and children will still enjoy my money

But to put my heart and mind on someone that can turn around tomorrow

God forbid bad thing

That's how I now live my Life with a very good peace and relaxed mind under no stress

I try to maximum enjoy my Life

Because stress have killed so many Men

Men should follow this Life with high extreme wired wisdom

Cause wickedness exist

Love800:
But associations and unions will not allow you lower your price.

Not always true

If you are in the system they can't do anything

I am talking from experience

The problem with Most Nigerian businesses is they focus so much on profit margin

Key is making the business sustainable
That's what the Asians do

MrFact:
It's only in Nigeria we celebrate mansions, No wonder our people go to other people's countries desperately make money by all means.

Celebrate mansions?

You are a joker

Go online and see houses that there owners celebrate about

I saw some on YouTube and I was like madd..

Homes in Atlanta, homes in New York etc
The Atlanta was like prime homes in ATL where rich black Americans live

Very big neighborhood

The one of New York was owned by an African American Man with net worth of $ 700million
A prime time New York property magnate

Do you think Nigerians even get money?
Just very few

Don't be a joker

chatinent:
As a political scientist, I happen to stand with Okonkwo on what he said about Peter Obi. Obi's political style of 'man of the people' politics is absurb...wanting to play nice guy to everyone.

Same thing Sanwo Olu was doing during pre-election era visiting all and sundry.

Politics is who gets what, when and how...and the "how" part is what Obi should work on... because at the end of the day, how well you work on how depends on how well INEK will treat you.

Which nice guy?

These Okoye brothers need some one to talk senses to them

They are all from Anambra state and Peter Obi is a highly respected elder that can talk to them

An Igbo adage says; okenye aha ano nu uno ewu amuo n'ogbuli

Meaning a grown adult can't be in the house while a pregnant goat will give birth tied to a cord

Peter Obi have the capacity to call them to order

There parents are dead who would have done that
They may not listen to there umunna

So Peter Obi have the right to call them to order

Because they're bringing shame to we igbos by there nonsense behavior

This one no be nice guy

The Man is not part of this government

So he is jejely resting

Not under any kind of stress

Una think say this politics is easy?

Make una leave the man alone

aro080:
Most supply of chickens come from those states from 2020 this people keep increasing the price of chickens and forgetting the law of demand and supply especially area of price rate. When u keep on sky rocking price for chick definitely people will not buy demand will slow u be out of business. Government has their parts to play. That's why some time prices increase is not the solution but in Nigeria here any small trend is an opportunity to increase prices of commodity. At the end u harm yourself and business

Actually most business people don't understand that too much profit margin kills a business

That's why the Asians especially the Chinese are taking advantage of the whole world through this strategy

What a business should focus on is not high profit margin rather but producing more of the goods with less profit for sustainability of the business

Many Nigerian businesses don't know this strategy

They just focus on high profit margin rather than turnover


In the rules of business;

Turnover over high profit margin

When Nigeria begins to get Men and Women of integrity in the places of authority

Change will begin to come

Are there people of integrity in this Nation?

Definitely yes

But the level of wickedness that abound will not allow them to emerge

But one thing I know is that no matter how darkness and evil abound
They can never defeat light and the good


It may take time
But darkness can never ever defeat light
Impossible

Those that will change this country will appear

stagger:
Let everyone who proclaims the Name of the Lord depart from iniquity.

The onus is on the adherents to do the right thing. God does not force people to do the right thing. He has left us to decide what we want to do. If you choose evil, no matter how many times you attend church/mosque or do pilgrimage, you will end up in damnation.

If you do right, then you will receive the heavenly eternal rewards.

Many of our people that profess religion

There hearts are very far away from God

Because respecting God's laws are the first rule of people that worship God

But in all honesty

God is far from them

It's total hypocrisy

Guess what: God will be laughing at there foolishness

Honestly this beggers beyond belief

When I hear billions were used to sponsor pilgrimage I never believed that it was to this extent

How can government use $62million equivalent of Naira 88billion be used to sponsor pilgrimage to mecca?

As in it's completely unbelievable

How can we as a Nation use
Naira88bilion to sponsor pilgrimage?

Is this what Nigeria should be using her money to do this trying times in the economy where Nigerian citizens are going through economic crunch of which many can't feed a decent meal


I weep for the waste and misplaced priority we do in this Nation

All these misplaced wastes isn't good at all

Monies should be channeled to productive and profit yielding things

I weep in my heart

Those leading us don't they think?


Because the money was wrong priority why won't the civil servants given the task mismanage it

I am very ashamed of this issue

Because when foreigners see this kind of news they will take everyone in Nigeria as completely unserious. Honestly


Even God that blessed this Nation with her resources will not be happy with the level of colossal misplaced priority and waste done in this Nation.

God never takes people that waste things serious

This is the bane of our problems in Nigeria

I weep seriously for how much we have wasted as a Nation

It's very heart breaking honestly

Great hero

May your soul rest in peace 🙏

HenryThegreat1:
What actually is wrong with this.
He or she bought it for personal use and decided to trade it with profit. Why do Tinubu government made a bag of rice be selling between 90,000 to 150,000 depending on type and location.? Why?

Another reason why I will blame government is they don't have consumer protection agency where price of essential commodities are fixed

The market price should not go above the fixed Price

Any seller that defaults should be dealt with strictly

But we don't have such in this Nation

Businesses do anyhow they want

Govt is to blame too

Make the business environment friendly

Set prices on essential commodities not all but the ones people feed on everyday

It's a horrible problem in this Nation

Very shameful in deed

And they want the country to get better

But rather be dishonest for a mere change

Konquest:
This is spot on.

I said this same thing on another thread. These people are sponsored and hired to cause chaos and are most likely NOT Nigerian citizens. I remember reading an article during the COVID lockdowns where the former Kano State Governor said MOST of the Almajiris in Kano are immigrant from Niger Republic. Of course the far North of Nigeria and Niger Republic have cultural linkages but that does NOT give them the right to allow unbridled illegal immigrants from Mali and Niger Republic into the Northern states like Kano, Katsina, Jigawa, Sakwato, Kaduna, etc, because it would put humonguous economic and infrastructural pressures on them.

But Nigerian politicians use them during elections

Those people you are talking about already know there way into Northern borders

Because it's very porous

ITIQ:
Do not put your hope in coup. You don't need big guns and decrees to solve myriad economic problems confronting man in this age.

Don't derail the demand that everyone is making for your own "political saviour" that will eventually become another tyrant sooner or later.

Grow your indigenous capacity to solve your political problems and make your country one that Africa can look up to as standard bearer.

Dialogue will solve the problem at one point or the other, so that's what this protest is negotiating, it would be great not to derail it's demands.

It's time to pray for the North.

The modern world is built on knowledge based economy.


The deeper Nations pursue this knowledge
The wealthier and economically prosperous they become

The US, China, and other successful economies understood this.

But African nations haven't tapped talk less of maximizing these opportunities

Gra gra no take anyone anywhere
