So government should be paying the boy for having illicit s8x with a young girl, and getting her pregnant with no means of providing for the mother and the baby needs?
Are you saying that the western governments encourage their young citizens by paying them for their irresponsible sexual adventures and the resultant pregnancy too?
You must be living in some dream world of your own creation, and not on this planet earth.
Government shouldn't be paying for it but you'll be the first to japa to European countries where government pays for it abi?
In South Africa, Europe and America, all single mothers are being paid monthly for their babies upkeep until the baby is 18 yrs. Hospital Bills are free for much ailments especially maternity bills.
Blame your government for the broke boy being unable to pay hospital bills.
LawWithEbele: S£x is sweet. But responsibility is sweeter.
Recently, I witnessed a young girl barely twenty undergo an emergency caesarean section. She came from a humble background. Her “baby daddy” appeared to have nothing except an erection.
Labour stalled. Both mother and child were in danger. Thankfully, the hospital manager prioritised saving lives over money. The CS was done. Mother and child survived.
Then reality struck. They had no essentials. Even ordinary spirit and cotton wool had to be borrowed from other patients.
The baby daddy went out to fetch hot water and pap, promising to return in a few hours. Ten hours later, he was nowhere to be found.
The baby, unable to latch, was given water and glucose. But hunger cannot be deceived. She cried uncontrollably. The mother, who was fit enough to take pap, had nothing to eat. She wept, not from joy, but from hunger.
It took the compassion of strangers to buy a tin of NAN milk for ₦11,500 and food for the mother. That was what kept both alive while waiting for the “Messiah”-the baby daddy.
The lesson is simple: S£x comes with responsibility. “I love you” does not pay hospital bills.
Ladies, before you spread your legs, ensure there is something in your account. Do not assume the man is capable. Appearance can be deceitful.
To married women, pregnancy is not just about emotions. It is about finances. Do not wait until you are reduced to a welfare case before realising that preparation is key.
I chose to address my gender because we bear the burden of child delivery. But men, do not let erection be your compass. Erection comes with responsibility. I need not say more.
I hope I have spoken to someone. Have a thoughtful day.
Imagine Blaming the young man for having no money when it's not his fault but the fault of government for making him broke and unable to pay for hospital Bills, that his mates in South Africa, Europe and America enjoy from their government free of charge.
If breathing air requires money, I'm sure most poor people will have died in this country and they will be blamed for dying.

We all know why the Naira went down to 2000 Naira is because Tinubu refused to give importers dollars to import( after looting them ) so they turned to the black market BDCs who then hoarded their dollars to cause a steep rise.
Moreover, technically speaking there's actually nothing like Naira subsidy.
And the so called defending of the Naira was actually the government giving importers money to import goods at the prevalent stable rate so that Nigerians can afford it.
So the 1.5 billion dollars Buhari spent every month was actually injected into the economy to make goods and services affordable for Nigerians in correlation with the salaries of Nigerians then.
The difference between the black market rate and official market rate was because of Buhari's nepotism favoring his Fula brothers in allocation of dollars, some of whom used the extra cheap dollars (as they were not importers) to give to the real importers thereby acting as middle men.
These middle men is what Tinubu has actually removed because he couldn't replace them with his Yoruba kinsmen.
However what caused the Naira to move to 2000 wasn't because of the official and black market rate
What caused it was Tinubu's looting of the dollars meant to be injected into the economy for over a year in the name of floating the naira
successmatters: I know you read the story and know the truth, but you must twist things out of context to suit your devious mind. Continue.
U're obviously opinionated here. Nicholas Ukachukwu can not be crying foul if he was not feeling cheated. Which means that people have obviously been doing it and getting away Scot free but he was treated differently. I work in an organization and I know how all these things works. However the fact still remains that if he were a Fulani or Yoruba, he would not be treated like that
Nicholas Ukachukwu is pained that because he is an Igbo man, he was not allowed to get away with an illegality of buying land in Abuja without going through True process while the Fulanis and Yorubas were allowed to get away with the same thing.
Well, crying victim mentality for being an Igbo slave will not help him. The only thing that can help him is Igbo presidency. Let him start donating money to Igbo political power and channel his energy to Igbo president actualisation so that he will enjoy any illegality he wants to enjoy in Abuja like his Yoruba and Fulani friends.
Like Awolowo said 'Take thee the political establishment and every other thing will be added unto you'.
NairaOcean: President Tinubu, during a Ramadan Iftar gathering with traditional rulers and religious leaders at the State House in Abuja on Thursday, March 28, delivered a poignant message to Nigerians, urging them to refrain from cursing the nation and instead focus on changing bad leaders through the democratic process.
"The love of the nation is in your hands. Pray for our country. Educate our children. The sermons we preach to the members of our churches and mosques are important," President Tinubu expressed passionately.
In a call to action, Tinubu emphasized the power of the vote, stating, "Do not condemn your own nation. If a leader is bad, he should be voted out in the next election." Drawing on Yoruba wisdom, he added, "As a Yoruba man and as our fathers will say, ‘no matter how slippery the bottom of your child is, you must leave the beads there.’"
Same Senate that was led by Ahmad Lawan? Same Senate that did whatever Buhari wanted, even turned the institution of the Senate to Buhari's spokesman? I don't think you are serious.
Assuming what you are trying to say holds ground, the National Assembly has oversight on the activities of the CBN, yet according to you Emefiele did what he did, with the National Assembly not questioning anyone then, and you expect alarm raised to the National Assembly to do something about Buhari? A body that wilfully shirked their duty in pleasure of Buhari? Please tell another joke.
Lemme give you another scenario for you to consider so you might consider that what you said does not hold water. The Act that authorized government to use Ways and Means prescribe that, government cannot take more than 5% of total revenue as Ways and Means. From 2017 to 2023, Buhari consistently took more than 40% to 70% as against the prescribed law with the Senate not coughing about it till the man left. Here you are, directing Emefiele to the Senate, same Senate that Buhari violated the law they themselves made for six years.
Make Buhari for do something wey go affect their salaries and benefits, you for see weda Senate dey wait for person to inform them or raise alarm before them take action.
@last paragraph.
Buhari actually illegally printed money for six years, a job his employee Emefiele did. It is funny to see you and your likes to blame Emefiele while Buhari is there. Emefiele is now more powerful than the president of Nigeria. In fact, Emefiele actions and inactions are all directly an indictment on Buhari as the president
Emefiele could have resigned when Buhari put pressure on him.
By obeying Buhari to break the law he became a criminal and a disgrace to his profession - now he is suffering for the actions he took.
ReubenE: How they always avoid mentioning Buhari beats me
@last paragraph.
Senate want to probe how the 30 trillion ways and means loan collected from the CBN under "Emefiele" instead of the 30 trillion ways and means loan collected from the CBN by the "Buhari Government"
Buhari's government collected 30 trillion ways and means loan from the CBN (another way of saying printing 30 trillion) but they never mention the man, the president that collected the loan and squandered it even, but the man that gave the loans with really no choice
The real culprit here is Emefiele because he could refuse to do so and raise an alarm with the Senate and Buhari will not do anything but chose no to do so.
Buhari cannot illegally print money without Emefiele's help. It is beyond his powers.
navyseal2220: Funny man, you won't know he is from the Igbo speaking part if Akwa Ibom and speaks Abiriba dialect Igbo. Most of his senate staff are Igbos from his village. Some westerners wanted to use it to cause division between Igbo and Ibibio, claiming that Igbos have taken over Akpabio senate but what they didn't know was most of those Igbos were from Ika in Akwa Ibom.
If you check history, You'll see that At least 1/3rd of Igbos living in Igbo land are migrants from the Akwa/Cross area, including Nnamdi cownu himself.
Any Igbo answering Maazi as a title, or names like Okoro, Okolo, Okoli and Obasi are from the Akwa/Cross area with roots through Lake Ejeagham area in South West Cameroun
Buhari represented Arewa fully.. had appointments from .. Northwest, Northeast, North central.. and other Nigerians..
Yoruba called him nepotistic and tribal taking all to North.. forgetting it was Arewa turn to rule..
Now is the southern turn
They Yoruba people shouting southern unity .. has turn southerners to southwest Yoruba..
Southeast and south south minorities are pushed out.. .. is good , the North is not bothered.. they’ve gotten over this Yoruba reality and patiently waiting for the next turn it will get to them.. Their young politicians are keep note quietly.. they’re know for patience as farmers..
The Southwest that always scream on paper .. already known not to take half of what they comfortably give without qualms.. are the people in mixed.. for it will come to them soon.. as they’ve clearly exhausted all arsenal of opposition attack.
Na reason Yoruba peeps will keep shouting “ igbos will never rule Nigeria “ because they never grind beans ,e don Dey smell., .. fear!! Fear of receiving what they give to others..
Just like yesterday Buhari 8 years don waka and north has gone quiet
Someday igboman will be on that seat... hehehehehehehehehe..
Some will die before the actual dead.
Yoruba, should enjoy their government.. and make sure they allow others enjoy theirs when it’s time
Seems Igbo leaders have sworn an oath not to rule Nigeria. It will be a miracle if an Igbo becomes president because I don't see how a group of people who lacks ambition can become president.
I'll rather bet that Igbo political leaders support Biafra than support one of their own to become president
blueAgent: You keep repeating the same thing, while missing the elephant in the room. Let me ask you, let's assume we are in a parliamentary system, with APC winning majority seats in Parliament and Tinubu became the prime minister, Do you think or believe that the APC members would declare vote of no confidence in Tinubu?
Please honest with your response
You still don't get it. In the parliamentary system, if the APC members fails to do a vote of no confidence in Tinubu, the head of State, who cannot be a member of APC, can call for new elections in the Parliament for the post of prime Minister. Also one part of the ruling coalition govt(usually of the Head of state) can form a new coalition with other members of the opposition and form a government. It that doesn't work, then a new election will be called
Akwamkpuruamu: Establishing a commodity board without a subsidization of farm inputs will discourage farming and increase food scarcity, except u open d borders and waive custom duties for food inputs
The border is wide open. Northern farmers are selling to Niger Rep for handsome profits because of Tinubu's sanctions on Niger rep.
Commodity board is good, but I agree with you on food subsidy. Jonathan's fertilizer subsidy, ended by the corrupt Buhari govt, should also be introduced
Farmers in the Northern part of the country are already stockpiling food and selling it to neighboring Niger in secret.
They claim that it's business, and they hope to turn a profit.
The overrated buffoon Tinubu and his Efulefu gang got off to a bad start.
That's because Tinubu imposed sanctions on Niger republic.
Tinubu should end the sanctions for peace to reign. The military junta has come to stay in Niger rep. Even the Presidential system of government practiced in Africa is the junior brother to Military dictatorship
blueAgent: What's the major difference between presidential and parliamentary? Apart from power been vested in the legislative assembly in Parliamentary, while in presidential, power is vested in the executive. My argument is that Nigerian political class are so greedy and united in corruption and bad leadership. They would never impeach any leader,who faours them.
There are other countries that practices presidential system without the citizens having access to arms,and they are doing well, eg France, Germany, Belgium, Mexico.
Oga the main difference is that in the parliamentary system, a new election can be called anytime a vote of no confidence is served on a prime Minister but can't be done in the Presidential system where the executive rules till the end of his tenure.
Another major difference is the lack of a constitution.
In the Parliamentary system, a flawed and rigged election can always be corrected by calling for new elections at anytime so no need for going to the Election petition tribunal
blueAgent: My brother what works in the west,does not work here. We are wired differently. Parliamentary system is expensive and leads to frequent interruption of governance.
My brother it is far less expensive than the Billions of Naira stolen by politicians every day.
The Parliamentary system will work in Africa and it has worked before
blueAgent: Remember than we just had independence from Greay Britain, we were still influenced by western values and principles. Just like in SouthAfrica ,After the apartheid, things were still done relatively well, but as time went on the country continued its downward trend.
South Africa practices the Presidential system of government. And their country will continue its downward trend as long as they don't have weapons and guns to protect their democracy like the Americans.
The Presidential system of government is useless without Armed citizens to protect their rights and freedoms
Israel ppl are not as corrupt as Nigerians. Liberia had independence in1845 from US, they adopted US constitution, flag and ideas, yet 170years after Liberia is a 3rd world country with little or no rule of law. The issue is not , about having laws or systems in place, of course it helps but , the most important thing is ppls attitude, both followers and leaders towards obeying the law. Do you think tribal and religious sentiments,would allow some tribes to call back their representatives, know the implications on their tribal man, who is the prime minister?
If you say the military will suspend the parliamentary system like Aguiyi Ironsi did in 1966, then I will agree with you. But as long as the parliamentary system of government is at place, with no military coup, the sky is our limit.
Liberia's democracy did not last like that of America because the Liberian citizens DO NOT OWN GUNS. Emphasis on 'GUNS' AND WEAPONS '.
Why do you think the Democrats wants to disarm Americans.? Cos they want to destroy the American democracy just as Democracy in Africa have been destroyed and bastardised for the last 50 years.
But you can't destroy Americas democracy if you have armed citizens threatening you with guns and weapons at every turn. The American soldiers are great but they are a tiny fraction of American population who have 4 times more guns than their soldiers combined.
Make no mistake, the day the Americans lose their first amendment rights to own guns is the day they lose their democracy. If they protest they will be gunned down like the Lekki massacre and nobody will do anything about it.
Just imagine that the Lekki protesters had guns and weapons like the Americans. Those soldiers would have dare not shoot at them or they will face the consequences of restaliatiin immediately
Hope you saw the Black lives matter protests of 2020? Did you see how weapons where freely used and the American police couldn't handle them? Thata how real protests are done. That's why American politicians don't treat their citizens as shit like in Africa.
Before the white man came here, in Igbo land, all Igbos were armed with guns. Igbos had the highest number of guns then. The first thing the British did was to confisticate all those guns even before they started imposing taxes. From that time till now, the Igbo Republican spirit, protected by their weapons, have become utterly destroyed.
blueAgent: My brother, I have studied this matter for years, weather presidential or parliamentary the blackman is not fit for ruling his fellow blackman.
I suggest you list the studies of the matter. I've given you instances but you need to compare the Nigeria of the first Republic Parliamentary system of government and see how low we have sunk under successive governments
blueAgent: It would still not work, the average blackman is stupid and gullible. they would rather use the gun to kill their enemies that charms failed to kill, than fight the government.
Every Nigerian wants Tinubu out of power. In a parliamentary system of government, all members of parliaments would be getting calls by now demanding for A VOTE OF NO CONFIDENCE on Tinubu.
A Successful vote of no confidence means Tinubu is gone
Tinubu has committed even far worst offence but blind eye was turned to the law, same thing would happen be it parliamentary or whatever you call it.
You can force, a horse to the stream but you can force to drink water.
Give me examples of black ruled countries that practice parliamentary system of government that are first world countries.
There are NONE, unfortunately.
That's why Africa is in a mess while Europe is enjoying dividends of democracy.
Only America is succeeding by using the Presidential system of government but their citizens are well armed so they can always waste their politicians if they misbehave
blueAgent: My brother, the system of government dies not matter, weather it is presidential or parliamentary, what matters is the rule of law.
Blacks are inherently disobedient to rule of law.
Whites were also disobedient. If you say blacks are lazy I will agree, but man whether Black or White, is inherently selfish and will not hesitate to break the law if it will advance his interests.
The only way to break that disobedience is to create a system of government that will check mate the excesses of political leaders. Look at what happened to Liz Truss. She tried to do what Tinubu did last year and was immediately booted out of office. If Britain were a constitutional republic, the British will probably be experiencing what we're getting now and they will be as helpless as us to stop it till 4 years time. But look at how she was booted out of power.
If we're running a parliamentary system of government, Tinubu will be old news by now
How I wish Nigerians are well armed like American citizens. These wicked poltiefcians would have been wasted by now so that they will never enjoy their loot in peace.
DEMOCRACY WITHOUT ARMED CITIZENS IS AS USELESS AS MILITARY DICTATORSHIP
