My question is from Germany to Canada what is the voting strength of those in diaspora instead of doing townhall meetings here at home, just to tell you an average Nigerian president likes traveling, imagine the tour he would tour the world with taxpayers money if elected this one he is flying round the world in campaign

None and I believe he knows this. What he is doing is probably awareness program for the next run. We all know Atiku will win this one. Buhari is already getting ready to sign iCT into law. A bill Atiku is solidly behind. What does that tell u?
As much as we want Obi to win this. We all know Nigeria is not ready for good leadership. What they are ready for is someone who will reap, molest them and use them the way they have not being used before. They are not ready for service to the people

Biodun556:
In terms of infrastructure from 1999 till date, Buhari government is number one

Bihari, didn't start any of the projects

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
Good 4 them. I can't point to any project done by my senator....

Allow them. Anyone in ABA at the time Kalu was there know better

chatinent:
The devil will be surprised at who sent you! Wtf! Why can't you leave people's wives alone!!!!!

There is nothing wrong in keeping in touch with a female friend even after she is married. Just know your boundary that's all

Nothing to worry about. Not until they change the basic biology book teaching. I don't see how they would accomplish that

Osama2478:
Nairalanders,

Please I need you to help me have a third eye into a personal matter. Although, I have taken a position, I just wanted to be sure I never overreacted.

I am a guy based in Europe and my wife is in Nigeria. I have only been away for a year.

There was a day I was calling my wife on phone and her other phone was ringing which I asked her to pick up but she never did only to say that it was my friend calling her. I was surprised and asked her immediately how did my friend get know her other number. She gave some not-so-convincing explanation but I let it slide.

Curiously, when I returned to Nigeria, I discovered that this friend sent money to her and she never told me about it. The so called friend also didn't tell me anything. In fact, he has always acted as if he wasn't having any contact with my wife.

When I saw the transaction, my wife wanted to manipulate the situation to make it look like I was invading her privacy. I stood my ground to know what purpose the money was meant for but no reasonable explanation.

I called the friend too to know what the money was meant for but only retorted if he couldn't give my wife money as a friend. He couldn't offer any reasonable explanation. With high sense of modesty, this is a guy that would wish to be in my position economic wise and I have always been very generous to my wife when it comes to money. Therefore, financial lack could not be an excuse.

After this experience, I severe my friendship with the guy and rein in on my wife too. I felt that was not the kind of friendship any reasonable person should keep because I felt betrayed by his actions and inactions in relating with my wife behind me. I also see both of them (friend and wife) to be dangerous to my well-being.

Please I will like to know if I overreacted.

Thank you.

MOD please take it to front page for wider views and opinions

You are overreacting probably due to insecurities on your part. You should never let anyone have so much power over you enough to make you question your sanity or the confidence in yourself.
By the actions you have taken so far, you have questioned all those.
There is nothing wrong in a good friend giving your wife money. But she should tell u. You are marrying your wife not your friend. She should be the bone or your bone not the crisis of your troubles.
Reassess your position on this issue. Call both separately and question them. Get the truth out for your peace of mind. Then move on.
Nobody is worth breaking your head over

jeromestarks:
Listen boy, I have been married twice; both non virgin (cooperate hoes)
I am ready to have joy and peace now. I deserve it. So, I am going for nothing but the best - VIRGINS!

U are a silly child. Move along let your fathers talk

ibinaboonline:
I'm ready to pop the question soon. My question is, how do you'all codedly, abi sharply find out your bebe's finger size in order to get her a ring that fits? I'd ask her but I want it to be a surprise. Men and women of experience, help a newbie out

OP don't mind those pained young men. Go for it

jeromestarks:
Don't do it. You will regret it.
Your best bet is to impregnate and keep her at home; this way, she won't misbehave.
Quick question, is she a virgin?

This young men here are pained

Imagine this at naira 700 to 1 dollar? We are finished with Bihari and APC

tamdun:
Yet obi cannot replicate same in Anambra?

Obi doesn't need to replicate that rubbish. Unlike Tinubu Obi's word is his bond. Tinubu never says the truth

tamdun:
Did obi pay for non igbo WAEC? Am sure non indegen attends anambra govt sch, did obi pay for them?

So paying for waec is the best tinubu can do for good governance. that's the problem Nigeria has. And why we keep electing people that rub us blind

Electorate:
When APC came with the change mantra, It all started on Social Media and spreaded like a wild fire...Back in 2014, The All Progressives Congress, APC, said it engaged the services of prominent international political consultants, AKPD Message and Media, Same consultant the Barack Obama team hired to get him into the White House in 2008 and 2012...And of course it doesn't come cheap.

https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/155340-nigeria2015-apc-engages-obamas-u-s-consultants.html

....Money and the need for change played a major role.

Similarly, Social Media was the main tool young Nigerians used to vent their frustration on the now disbanded Sars Team, It was the most brutal protest ever recorded in Nigeria's history.

https://globalhistorydialogues.org/projects/protests-in-nigeria-the-influence-of-social-media/

...Frustration played a major role.

Now, The Obitients have hijacked this very powerful tool...They are everywhere using this tool to build organic structures going from house to house to enlightening people in cities, towns, villages and remote areas...and doing it with passion and not for money, infact, most are self funded just like #Endsars.


...Passion, Frustration and the urgent need for positive change is playing a major role.

The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, has said women and youths formed over 75 percent of registered voters in Nigeria and can single handedly decide the final outcome of the election.

https://www.vanguardngr.com/2022/06/women-youths-can-determine-winners-of-2023-polls-if-inec/

Other Political parties should be worried about this rather than shrug it off with their usual "Elections are not done on Social Media" or "Peter Obi can only win on Social Media" they need to wake up to reality.

I come in peace.

If all these things can stop the rigging in the north. The videos are all over social media. If they are able to contain those form of rigging then Obi would make Aso Rock. But who says they can contain it. Tinubu holds the key to Lagos. Lagos may have suffered due to reduced election polling stations but I don't see how that would stop Tinubu. Atiku on the other hand has the northern oligarchs behind him.
It will be a tough fight. I hope Obi wins but how that's going to happen is a mystery

tamdun:
No igbo with good conscience will vote against Tinubu, igbo benefits a lot from Tinubu, tinubu as a gov. and thru his legacy paid for millions of Igbo students WAEC,go to every Lagos state clinic you'll see igbo nurses and doctors, go to Lagos govt sch you'll see igbo teachers....
Now tell me reason why a yoruba man should vote for Obi? Yoruba people benefits nothing from obi, we owe him nothing

So that is your reason to write this rubbish? Cos he paid waec fees of candidates? Amongst those whose fees were paid, was there no Yoruba son or daughter? Please leave politics of bias. It won't help the country

The Tory leadership debate on TalkTV is cancelled after presenter Kate McCann faints and collapses live on air.

Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak had been taking part in a second head-to-head debate, this time for The Sun and TalkTV, when a loud crash was heard in the studio

Truss looked panicked and the broadcast was suspended.

Earlier both campaign teams were urged "to be mindful of tone" and have a debate that's "respectful and dignified".


TalkTV reacts:



SOURCE

One of Truss or Sunak will replace Boris Johnson on September 5 as UK Prime Minister.

Collapsed, like their government

I think you are right but on the hand, it still requires prayers before you choose a partner and am sure you can do it on your own after several and thorough Spiritual guidance and counselling. God help us all.

BS

“We can't afford to turn Nigeria to a lawless country because officers are afraid of what people will say.”

Look at this Id!ot. Have you ever cared about what the public will say considering all the atrocities the police force are committing daily. Lawless Police Force.

Don't mind him. This his comment is an after thought. What he said when they arrested those boys was that he will deal with them. This was personal

Tranquill:
The headline is misleading. They were locked up simply for obstruction of traffic and breach of peace. These are punishable.

That was supposed to be the case but the PRO that initiated their being brought in said and I quote "I will deal with you". That is not obstruction of traffic and breech of peace. They can proof it. Then the DPO even went and said and I quote "pls beg him". Knowing fool well that the reason they were brought in was not for the former but the later and that sir is police overreach. Before their being arrested, they should have being told in clear terms that they are being brought in for obstruction of traffic and breech of peace but that was not the case. Any smart lawyer would have it thrown out fast

Police PRO Muyiwa Adejobi ‘Locks 3 Friends Up’ for Disagreeing With Him in Traffic



https://fij.ng/article/powerful-police-pro-muyiwa-adejobi-locks-3-friends-up-for-disagreeing-with-him-in-traffic/

A case of overreach. Take it up, sue the police and the police PRO. If he wants to cause trouble for me, he is not the only person that can cause trouble

GraceUnIimitedd:
so should i give her the money?

On no account should U do such. Friendship should never be equated with financial support. U are not buying or paying for her friendship.
Ofcos she will hate you for that as most Nigerian girls would but that's the truth.
If U start on that note and be giving her money now, then U are done for if you marry her.

Totilopussylick:
These man deserve all the accolades

He took parts in the election to remind Tinubu

"Osun state no be Lagos" .

If they could beat BAT in both states why can't they do so in Lagos?

Malory:
. Imagine slumping because the people you claim you want to serve rejected you and instead choosed another person to serve them. Oga slumper, abi na by force to serve people or you slumped because of the loot you will miss?

Actually monies spent. Why Nigerian politics is a joke. Another politician went to to thanks giving for winning election. I mean our Nigerian mentality is warped

Ojuntana:
Where's that girl who was throwing tantrums at Trump in 2017 over climate change and global warming?
Maybe she'll just abandon school altogether when she hears her Europe want to start using firewood to cook.
I'll advise her to tell her mum to cook jollof rice with the firewood for her. The taste no be here. She go forget global warming straight!

The reportage is misleading and on purpose. Many houses in Europe already use firewood so it's not like there's anything to report here.
Many countries in Europe have already settled their gas requirements for the coming winter.

[quote author=WriterNig post=114738089][/quote]This news report is very misleading. Some houses in Europe already use firewood for heating so there's nothing new here.

None of these guys could. And if BJ really resigned the Tories have lost power

WarriAproko:
why didn't they test him in Nigeria. Beside the Doctor called the police

Good question. There are some tests that are still being difficult to source in Nigeria. That doesn't mean they can't be ordered and the testing done in Nigeria. But then am not in their head to know why they decided the former. Time will tell

It is very likely that Senator Ekweremadu is innocent in this matter, but karma is hitting on him for something he has done to someone.

Could be

an0daGuy:
I don’t care. They swindled him into coming to the uk all in a bid to harvest the poor lads kidney.

Both ekweremadu and his wife must be thrown in jail and the keys thrown in the sea and swallowed by a shark.

Let pdp turn to fishermen to try and save them

To test if he was a suitable donor. The young man knew what he was getting into.
