I know that people will start talking nonsense whenever they heard about privatization of the refinery. The refinery shouldn't have been in the hands of the government in the first place. No government runs refinery but it's only in Nigeria do such happen that is why the system had collapsed. Refineries should be run by private bodies and regulated by the government. Look at how NLNG is functioning today under private bodies. Privatization is the way to go.

A responsive and responsible government should have not allowed the refineries to collapse but manage it in such a way that will add more refineries over the years.

But corruption did not allow them do all that.

There is nothing inherently wrong with government building and running refineries while still allowing the private sector involvement. It would be a better way of regulating pricing.

She is just a cleaner cum olosho.

Instead of picking one, she decided to pick both.

I hope her story doesn't end in premium tears, well she may have given oga something to eat.

We will see.

kilisi:
How did this happen? I hope this is not a doctored video.

Very likely doctored. So the snake entered her ear and ruptured her eardrum and coiled way into her brain. Nonsense.

And to think Lagos was capital of Nigeria until 1991 should give everyone perspective as to how Lagos is expected to be by now.

The truth is that Lagos if it didn't continue to be the economic capital of Nigeria by reason of it's strategic position and also the absence of functional ports in other parts of Nigeria would have been worse than it is now.

But "hey" let's vote Tinubu so he can make Nigeria like Lagos.

mariahAngel:
Tea, but I found my way around it because I could never give it up.

What kind of tea? Or our Nigerian definition of tea?

As I watched the video, and heard the man's voice. I felt very bad for him.

He married what will kill him.

May God help you all to not marry a wife who will give you heart attack.

Abfinest007:
So u don't know ,these people are paid to defect

They don't know "wharis going on".

Defections are bought because people like OP believe it is a sign of credibility and acceptance. But it is rather a prequel to rigging.

So that when they finally rig themselves in, people can look back and think "maybe he won because he had so much support".

That's also the idea behind hiring of campaign crowds.

YoungLionken:
Mane has started a cold war..

He should thread carefully in their midst. No matter what, racism would always come in play, thereafter, favoritism and discrimination...

You too serious abeg relax.

Patson080:
I predict FCB to destroy FCB.
Do the maths.

You are a good prophet. Your prophecy came to pass.

He was clearly executed by a rival gang. All these American rappers and gangster lifestyle.

But be rest assured the murderer will be caught.

Rozross:
Feminist? I don’t have their strength Biko, I’m a strong dependent woman.

"Strong dependent woman", for some that will sound like a big paradox.

CheapHomes1:
How can you say that Tinubu of APC is coming to clean up the mess of buhari of APC? Did Tinubu not promise Nigerians that buhari will improve the country? Where did "mess" now enter this matter?

How can Tinubu clean a non-existent mess. He will need to first acknowledge that Buhari created a mess before we can talk about his capacity to clean such mess.

Throwback:
Notice how the supporters of Peter Obi on this forum are the same people who are happy that there was a forceful seat at home by a terrorist group.

Yet they continue to deny that IPOB is not the mob driving the Peter Obi presidential pursuit.

The same people who had earlier warned Obi that his presidential campaign is bigger than him the candidate.

The same people who have warned that any Igbo campaigning for Tinubu in Igbo land would leave this Earth.

I am not surprised that the Igbos have queued behind their fellow Igbo to achieve their dream of Igbo Presidency. It is those who think they are pursuing a nationalistic agenda that I am puzzled about.

No one is stopping you from queueing behind Tinubu and I won't begrudge you for doing what you believe is best for you.

However in Nigerian politics there is "what is best for you" and then there is "what is best for the masses". If you have vested interest and connection to any candidate whatsoever, those two may always never be the same thing. But at the end of the day, it is your vote, your choice.

But we should get full disclosure and be notified of potential conflict of interest before you try to sell your choice to us.

crazygod:
Nibbed? We bossed them. We were just unlucky with some of the shots hitting bars and Ajax keeper had the best positioning.

Though it is true that Liverpool has been unlucky in most of their games this season, but then there is the defensive sloppiness we have had.

Only a few games have seen Liverpool score first this season. And they have almost conceded in every game they have played.

fergie001:
See pushing but VAR people have done it again.

The same VAR that awarded two penalties against them last week or another VAR?

While most networks will work with any APN or even gibberish as APN. The APN you chose determines the path your internet will take and how stable and fast the connection will be. And from experience "cmnet" is the most stable Airtel APN in Lagos, I did the testing in Lagos so I cannot say for other locations.

So if you are browsing with an Airtel SIM ensure you set the APN to "cmnet" in case you changed it previously. But with respect to other networks you can leave it at "cmnet" and test the stability of the network as against that network's default APN.

Do we trust DSS to actually investigate rather than sweep the thing under the carpet following an order from an "oga at the top".

Neddstark:
I wish someone I know having drug addiction to Meth and Crack will read this right now and change

It looks like you know the same person that I know.

I'm curious as to why he didn't add a nose and mouth for them.

tunjijones:
Pregnancy is not an excuse... Person whey no get sense no get sense.

Na the simp husband even annoy me pass

The husband is a very wise man.

If you are married, you will know.

NaBanga:
He certainly handled it well. This couple is in America. The guests are American. Everyone knows you can't touch a woman, let alone a pregnant woman in the public eye. He may have admonished her later, but he would have been foolish to do so in public. Most likely he has advised her to calm down or seek help from her doctor. He will not put her under much pressure, because he could charged with a crime.

I am not talking about touching the wife. Why would someone assault their wife whether privately or publicly (irrespective of where they are) for what she said? That would be a very foolish man.

I mean just like the other lady refuted what the wife said by saying she was only joking. The husband could have also said the same thing, actually his body language showed he wanted to say it, but he must have advised himself against that.

GeneralPula:
Had it been she was in Abia now, I for don take her serious..

You claimed they did your fore-fathers evil and you still living in their land. Hypocrisy at the highest..

Biafra people killed Nigeria. Nigeria people killed Biafra. It’s called war & not friendly match..

There is a difference between war and genocide.

Very wise husband. He just took the mic and I thought he would refute the wife but he just handed it over to the DJ.

Michelle70:
I had this same feeling when MJ died, probably because i was looking forward to more of his songs.
But this Queens death, i was just suppose to read the news and type RIP.

Death causes for sadness. If you feel sad over the death of someone you don't know, then it means you are alive.

Chioma4eva:
I mean they toast you for weeks endlessly and try to get your love and attention and when you finally give them the attention and give them the chance to win your heart and maybe after dates and probably sex, they lose interest and go cold. Why is this so? Is love dead in Nigeria?

The goal all along was the coochie. Once it is won, there is no reason to continue. Sometimes they might want to get the coochie a couple of more times before technically ghosting you.

What is the solution? Never give in to sex irrespective of the pressure.

Then I pity the few women who think that they can get the guy to fall in love with them after sex. For guys sex is sex. Stop deluding yourself.

If you want to understand structure, please go and join APC or PDP at the ward level and watch how even at ward level structure exists.
One man or woman has a group of real voters who he attends to their needs even when there is no election and they know and accept him as their political leader.
Those are the people who are the structures of the party. They are not idlying away on the social media.
In 2015, I was at a ward polling station and witnessed how a single leader delivered 50 women and men to vote for a political party and changed the result from that polling booth. You can not do that and people like that man are not on the social media.

In elections there are decided voters and then there are undecided voters. I believe someone with your political exposure has already made a decision as to who to vote come next year. And there are millions like you.

In the course of the campaign people will switch from their already preferred candidates to another but the percentage of such switch is usually less than 15%.

Where the real deal lies is on the undecided voters. Who need to be convinced by a robust grassroots campaign.

The person who influenced 50 votes for their candidate could only influence undecided voters and odds are most of the 50 people were actually going to vote for the same candidate. If there are plenty undecided voters then the campaign was not robust to start with.

With each passing day, technology increases and so does internet usage. The role of social media should not be ignored.

What LP should focus on is a people centric campaign if they campaign team know their onions. Obi may not win but anyone who thinks he will not get up to 5 million votes is kidding themselves.

FreeStuffsNG:
I am not sure you understand politics
The mushroom party lp has not even a councillor seat in the whole SE yet PDP, APC and APGA share all the elective positions. It is wishful thinking to expect PDP/APC/APGA members and political structure to vote against their own parties in an open secret ballot. The result will shock you like Osun's result. Those folks are not on the social media and definitely will deliver votes in like pattern that made PDP dominate the SE today.
SE is more likely going for PDP as usual but APC will try. No chance for any mushroom party except APGA.
check my signature for free stuffs!

When you say things like "deliver votes" I don't understand what that means at all.

Structure is good for rigging and countering rigging attempts and nothing more. If there is a guarantee of a free and fair election, then structure is useless and the populace have all the power.

Structure is not votes, the people are the votes and every person has his individual votes.

If APC has 36 governors that's 36 votes, add their household (let's assume for the sake of this argument that they can get their households to vote accordingly) then with an average household of 20 persons that's 720 votes. Now replicate same for the Senators, HOR members, Ministers, LG chairmen and they will scarcely make 500,000 votes.

APC couldn't win in 2015 nor 2019 in the SE and after how badly they have performed someone believes that they will win in 2023.

We know these language is just pre-rigging preparation talks.

But it won't work. Even Uzodimma cannot rig himself in as Governor, how much more for the Presidential election.

Some people you see on the street are not humans, they are embodied demon spirits who do emboldened acts of sinful depravity to the intent to seduce others and lure them into such acts.

Because I can't understand how sensible human beings (and Nigerians at that) could be having sex publicly in the clear view of several people and with 100% knowledge that such act is being captured on video.

Soso990240:
I bet you still have a lot to learn about this game of football. You dont just wake up and sign a new contract. There must be negotiations before contracts can be signed. Mane left in June, Salah signed in July.. meaning that Liverpool never valued Mane. How can you say that Salah is a better footballer than Mane? Both had different work. Mane was more versatile, and a utility player, Mane was even used as a striker sometimes. Mane has won Premier league Golden boot just like Salah. Mane is always more visible in Games compared to Salah, who only functions as a RWF. Mane has always been the engine room of that attack. Watch this:
Virgil Van Dijk - £220,000
Thiago Alcántara do Nascimento - £200,000
Trent Alexander-Arnold - £180,000
Roberto Firmino - £180,000
Diogo Jota - £180,000
Fabinho Tavares - £180,000
Darwin Núñez - £179,423
Sadio Mane - £100,000.

Just look at that earning and be sincere to urself. All of una go just de form opinion, with no reasonable point.
Liverpool claim they are cutting weekly wages, why start with Mane? why did they still offer Salah £350,000 to £400,000 when they are cutting cost? Salah is 31, Mane is 30, Van Dirk is 31. And Liverpool could only offer Mane £175,000 while offering Salah £350,000.
It is better now that Mane is earning £345,000 per week
The point is that Klopp already made his plans to dump Mane if he ask for a pay rise above £170,000 , that was why they Signed Luiz Diaz.. But they have forgotten that Mane is Ten times a big game player compared to Diaz.
Klopp will live with his decision of comparing Luiz Diaz to Mane.

That was very condescending.

You are entitled to your opinion as is every other person. But don't come here telling me how I don't know anything about football. When yourself is very myopic to see the big picture.

Soso990240:
You clearly lack comprehension on the issue the guy raise. How can you offer Mane £170,000 while Salah is Earning £400,000? Mane and his agent requested for £300,000 and Liverpool refused. Yet Liverpool kept using him because they know how important of a player he is. They felt Bringing in Luiz Diaz will solve Mane problem, but now look at it

You forgot that Salah's wage was increased only after Mane left the club with a lot of stalling on Salah's contract. The truth is that Salah is better than Mane as evidenced from over the years.

Salah is having a dry run now, but it happens to every player even to Messi. And Liverpool injury woes is not helping matters too.

You will tell us how you will transform the country after the elections.

I guess we should vote for you without knowing what you plan to do in order to turn the country around.

Fool me twice (for those who believed the highfalutin promises you lot made in 2015 and quickly denied)
