No sensible Igbo person should join the back stabbing Yoruba chameleons on any protest. They will only end up betraying igbos and siding with their Fulani masters to attack them. End SARS was not long ago nah, didn't we see the worse kind of chameleonish behavior by Yorubas? They ended up turning it into an "Igbos are destroying Lagos" agenda. The blunt truth is that Igbos will be used as a scapegoat by the army and other security agencies if they join the protest and the Yorubas will turn around and support their Fulani masters in their brutality against Igbos. Every wise igbo person should stay away from any protest that has to do with one Nigeria. Yorubas and other one Nigeria tribes can go and protest for their one Nigeria.

This above post is silly on so many levels. Of course those who already think this way will support and like. People like the poster above seek to divide and conquer by making it appear that Nigeria's problem is based on ethnic group. Ignore them else the mistakes and disasters of yesteryears will be repeated.

Nigeria can only improve if we all put our hands together.

They should just stop talking. I don't know who they are fooling. They should just stop. Boko Haran started way back before Twitter became popular in Nigeria. The more these ones talk - the more idiotic the excuses sound.

Some things I have seen

First class graduates who expect to be treated like King Solomon when they start work. Nah that ethic that helped you to get the first class is what we are looking for. If you like come in and don't keep working hard - bye bye.

First class graduates shocked that a 2.2 is rated as having more potential than them. Of course work is not school. Look at football. Go and look at the best u-17 footballers. Very few of them are at the top. People improve in life. Different races, different paths. Those that play football manager - how often has youth intake come in and you misjudge your number one talent.

People deciding that first class is not good. It is good. It is an achievement in life. It is something you can look back and tell your kids.

Hmm I understand what he is saying. I can't fault his argument.

obembet:
Daniel Levy be hating Chelsea but hiring every manager that Chelsea has sacked... Andre Villas Boas, Jose Mourinho and now Antonio Conte. There's just something about Chelsea and trophies that Spurs want to steal.

You mean like when Chelsea stole Frank Arnesen from Spurs then even tried to steal their pitch guy? There is a reason why Spurs and Chelsea don't do business anymore. Those attempts by Roman put paid to any transfer dealings. Now it is Chelsea selling their dregs to Arsenal.

Lonelypacifist6:
Read to understand.

I did and I am projecting based on your post. I would like to see the idiot that would sue her. No one who is sensible would sue Naomi Osaka.

Shell facilities set ablaze by gunmen in Imo



https://tribuneonlineng.com/shell-facilities-set-ablaze-by-gunmen-in-imo/

Shebi Shell go soon leave onshore for una. See person mouth as make Shell go fix the place back. Better drop money - your government has failed in security. It is more likely that Shell abandons the facility or sells it rather than fixing it if you don't drop money.

Nowadays global companies have multiple markets to invest in. The ROI on fixing this place better be attractive.

bigpicture001:
You really dont know y she withdrew...it is because no single player men/women supported her move..she is very daft with that move

Very false. There are players who have supported her e.g. Alex Zverev. I suggest you watch the below video.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E316m_wjNak

The media has showcased those who don't.

unmask:
She has been suffering depression since 2018 because of that useless witch called Serena.

I suspect people insulting her are one of the following; Serena fans, Americans, Australians, people who don't like to appear weak or vulnerable, people with no clue about mental health likely because they have been abused.

Our society doesn't value mental wellbeing as much as money. Some can't imagine throwing away money because of one's health.

Lonelypacifist6:
That's why i said people with common sense who don't operate on fickle emotions, would see reason to sue her. She broke contract.

Mental health is a fickle emotion. Chei.

I pray that either you or your loved ones never have mental health issues.

Najdorf:
This isn't about introvertism, you are trivializing the issue. She said she has suffered from severe depression for the past 4 years. Also, she isn't black.

I agree with you on some aspects. Introversion is the umbrella many shy/suffering from SAD decide to hide under. Its much easier to say "Well... I'm just an introvert" than to say you actually have a problem interacting with people.

Naomi Osaka is black. Her complexion is a pointer. Her father is from Haiti. Hmm maybe that explains some behaviours and reactions from people.

To help people with the term of introvert. The definition in psychology is below. I am an introvert.
People who are introverted tend to be inward turning, or focused more on internal thoughts, feelings and moods rather than seeking out external stimulation.

Kiddogarcia:
refused to talk to the media,nahhh. The only media Ferguson didn't talk to then was the guy representing BBC, you won't talk to premier league official Media team,the fine you go chop kpeere,Osaka played the victim and lost,she should retire for all I care

Played the victim? Lol. You think the Grand Slam hasn't lost out. At times it is better to put yourself in someone's shoes. There is no weakness in it. Lady has been depressed and mentioned that media conferences affect her mental health. You are suggesting she is playing the victim. Go watch the US Open crowd after she beat Serena in the final. It was after that match I finally lost all respect for Serena. I remember when Serena played Steffi Graf. Steffi was gracious during the game. Serena pah.

On Sir Alex, It wasn't only BBC. Dude used to refuse to take conferences. Apart from the one below, there was another one I recall after playing Real Madrid.

Fiscus105:
Because it's of rule of the game and every fucking player must play according to the dictate of the rules of the game.

bcoz of few titles she has won, her head swollen up, thinking she is the one to tell authority how to play the game.

I trust football authority such individual will learn his or her lesson in hard way.

Really? Football? Sir Alex Ferguson refused to talk to the media. Did they ban him? Did they threaten him? No. The Premier League accepted it. Guess who has more money? The PL or WTA?

Better go study well. I stand with Osaka on this.

madridsta007:
Serena, over to you. The overprotected baby is gone!
Naomi, no one will miss you. It cant be one rule for you, another for the others.

Oh I will miss her. Some people are crying and cursing her. Better pick up tennis racket and go challenge her. Let her use you to teach people lesson. Respect her talent. She has every right to use it as she wishes including ensuring that she doesnt die before her time.

villagejournal:
She want to be collecting the money but she don't want to be interviewed by journalist,Nonsense

The only nonsense here is you. You think the money is for free. Why not go join and get the money. One of the WTA's best players has announced she is suffering from mental health issues and depression and people like you who can only see money are talking like this. Girl will use you to wipe floor

Good girl. Strategically place it back on them. Oya Grand Slam - knowing your egos - how can a black woman who you made famous withdraw? Idiots.

Go girl. I had lost interest in WTA but I will definitely keep a tab on you.

Watch as the oyinbo try to crush her especially the French.

Is this the same girl that is choking you?

There should be an age limit on opening threads.

Male bestie of wife? That male should be flogged. I have told my female friends that as soon as they get married - our relationship will reduce in priority.

Your wife needs to mature up and show respect for herself. She can have male friends but the only bestie male friend should be the husband.

The only thing that matters is that Spurs have ensured Arsenal are not in Europe for the first time in ever and we have finished above l'arse!! Buahahahahaha!!!

And this governor wants to be President

For me it is Mercy Akide.

Hearing only the woman's aide, I would say that the man has ego problems. I need to hear his own side as well.

Woman must be bush. Didn't she see menu before she sat down?

There is a difference between investing and gambling. You gambled. Crypto is not for investing.

You are talking about prehistoric times and not modern times bro, there's nothing like chasing others out of their land to occupy it in this modern time. Palestinians are originally Philistines, arch enemy of Israel. In the olden days they fought many wars between themselves. And they know their land and their boundary. Israel has the power to chase them out of Gaza but Israel isn't doing that because they understand that Gaza belongs to Philistine. It's the land originally inhabited by their ancestors they are dragging bro

Prehistoric? The United States took land from the Red Indians ditto the Canadians. In Australia, the Aborigines are similarly afflicted. During the second World War countries took land from others through war. The losers lost the land. Argentina attempted to claim the Falklands in the 80s. It hasn't gone anywhere. Might is Right when it comes to such. This era of peaceful coexistence is unusual in man's history.

It is popular to claim that the Palestinians are originated from the Philistines. I am not sure if that is backed by raw data. It may be true but yet to read a consensus on that.

ogwumgbe:
Point of correction, Israel inhabited that place thousands of years before the Romans chased them out of their ancestral land. They didn't just start claiming the ownership of that land, their ancestors were buried there including Miriam the Islamic Holy book knows and adores very well

The Israelites themselves chased the people they found there when they migrated there. They also are not the original occupants of the land.

As I said noone should claim to be the original occupants as global historical practice has been that he who is stronger occupies. We would be hypocrites if we claim otherwise.

Funny enough I read somewhere that the Palestinians may be descended from some of the lost Israelite tribes.

Mikecold:
The truth is both Russia and China aren't taking sides

They despise Terrorists (check uighurs in China, check Islam in Russia) for their expantionist idealogy

But these two nations believe that until it affects in our soil before we take sides, they don't want to be the west lap dog

However All most all the biggest nations in Europe including America and Canada, UK, Australia etc have designated Hamas as a Terrorist group

To them israel is fighting an in house Terrorists group so they support it

But if a nation like Turkey comes in to interfer then it's becomes an invasion on israel (their Ally)

Meanwhile Turkey doesn't have the support of Russia and China because they want to be neutral, this is why turkey is begging rag tag Islamic nations who take decision on sentiment.

If they are capable they won't be finding help, the moment they invade israel privacy it's allies would react

Russia, China won't come to their aid because they caused it, the two can sell weapons to any party but not their most sophisticated weapons

Keep in mind that Russia and China hates Islamic Terrorists

The way they deal with terrorists eh - who wants to put mouth. The US won't talk because it wishes it can deal with them in similar manner. Ordinary Guantanamo Bay, people started shouting about human rights.

Friend22:
All nothing but empty emotional exhibition of awareness.

You ignorance is so loud that even a WiFi system sound like a whisper.

Israel is the terrorist nation occupying people's land unlawfully and they are the one's who attacked Muslim worshippers in the al-aqsa mosque during ramadaan and when Muslims retaliate the media who actually narrates a one-sided story makes it sound as if Muslims started it..

This is why I don't really take many of you Christians serious.. You are as ignorant (especially here on nairaland) as you come.

Point of correction. No one should claim any moral high ground here because the issues are far more complex. There is no country in the world where the current inhabitants were the original inhabitants. The Israelis are there to stay.

What I would expect is how to ensure a mutually beneficial existence for all parties.

PS You have in one breath also insulted Christians and your intent is to enlighten?

One thing I always wonder about - why haven't fellow Arabs provided land or sanctuary for the Palestinians?

Memberclub:
Israel please nuke northern Nigeria. I beg thanks

God forbid. You think if they nuke Northern Nigeria, the South won't be affected by blowback or fallout? Do y'all think?

The best thing Nigeria can do is to stay away from this citing our internal issues. Turkey is not a country I want to ally with. Ditto for Iraq, Libya, Lebanon etc

The next time countries block us from visa friendly lists, we will be wondering why meanwhile it is partly because of the alliances we have made.
