If you have a father ask him...

Do your children a favour, by doing the right thing for once, the less than 50k you collect monthly won't secure their future.

Copy master aka copy cat...


Can't be make his points without copying from anywhere?


His own is to copy from any and everywhere. Never a tailor made solution or independently thought out solution.


Reminds me of my secondary school class mate chinedu that copied someone's examination answers inside out and even copied the person's name as well.


Teacher came to class and read out the copied scripts making the class erupt into uncontrollable laughter to the embarrassment of chinedu.


Ask obi how do we solve insecurity, oh let's copy from Singapore. How do we solve poverty... oh we copy from Egypt. How do we solve energy problem... see how it's done in Mars.



Copy and paste. With no single input!

What stops Tinubu from copying?

I'm on debating break until further notice

Imagine foreigners invalidating a mother who's lost her son to drugs they sell (he's become a zombie) and them in return saying she's jealous of them. Wouldn't you wanna assault them after that - be honest?

The sooner such people leave SA, the sooner the country will work on social cohesion with sane foreign nationals.

These guys are not serious

Since they have killed 4 generals since the last 3yrs, the rest have woken up to speak and fight against it.

As a journalist, you of all people ought to know that you need to verify news before putting out to the public. This is such a heavy blow to her career, I hope Messi's family and the Argentines forgive her.

It is nothing that serious, but because of accountability, she resigned.

But here in Nigeria, several journalists have given more terrible and wrong information to the public, than what the Argentine journalist did.

You see it every day at busy junctions across many Northern Nigerian cities. An elderly woman with a bowl. A child beside her. Sometimes even a grandchild. A quiet routine that has slowly become part of the urban landscape.

Most people respond with 50 naira or at most 1000naira and move on. Few pause to ask a harder question.

How did we get here, and why is it becoming more common?

This is not about ethnicity or blame. Poverty exists across every part of the country. The more important issue is the pattern that turns poverty into a visible, long term street survival system for elderly women and children.

In many cases, the roots are structural and intergenerational.

Limited access to education for girls in earlier decades meant that many women grew into adulthood without formal skills or certificates. Early marriage and high fertility rates in some communities created large households with limited economic stability. As urban migration increased, many younger family members moved away in search of work, leaving older relatives without financial support.

When there are no pensions, limited savings, and no alternative livelihood, survival becomes immediate rather than planned. For some, begging becomes the only accessible option.

At the same time, children growing up in such environments often repeat the cycle. School attendance drops. Street exposure increases. Long term economic vulnerability becomes inherited rather than chosen.

The result is not just individual hardship. It is a system that reproduces itself quietly over time.

There is also a cultural dimension worth noting. In many Nigerian communities, including within Islamic tradition, charity is intended as support for the vulnerable, not a permanent economic structure. When dependency becomes normalised across generations, it raises difficult questions about education, employment, and social protection systems.

The uncomfortable truth is that this is not a problem that any single region or group can solve alone. It reflects gaps in education access, rural development, job creation, and social welfare across the country.

The solution is not stigma. It is prevention.

If we want fewer elderly women and children on the streets in the next generation, then three things matter deeply today.

First, education must remain non negotiable, especially for the girl child. It is one of the strongest predictors of long term economic independence.

Second, skills and employability must be prioritised alongside formal schooling so that adulthood is not dependent on informal survival strategies.

Third, stronger social support systems for the elderly are essential, including community based safety nets that reduce absolute dependence on street begging.

Every coin given at a traffic light addresses today’s need. Only systemic change addresses tomorrow’s reality.

A society is judged not only by how it treats its strongest members, but by how few of its weakest are left without options.

There are more Southern girls begging online for urgent 2k than the female Northern beggars

I've always been big on not dating someone living close to me, either neighbor or even coursemates, but guys this dude . I don't know if it's ovulation konji or smtin else... He's so mysterious, calm and collected, often tries to say hi..... I just want a steamy session even if it's once fr. I nursed that thought until some weeks back I overheard him saying girls that are easy to get are loose; in this time and age what is wrong for two adults to have real sexual connections without hiding under the guise of relationship? Anyways av recollected my feelings.

You can use food to get close to him, from there, you can seduce him.

I hope the South African citizens can match up, by filling those positions left by other immigrants... Otherwise, deflation will set in.

The likes of @Samantha125 can't wait to take over people's shop 😔

victorazyvictor:
I dey tell you. Imagine N110k for those qualities, money wey I dey spend a day.

Where you see 110k dey spend in a day, why you choose to deceive yourself.

I think you should change.

Why are they not advertising positions in NNPC & CBN.

Poor man pikin don suffer for this country.

Try as much as possible to eat healthy, and stay fit, especially those eating fries and other junk foods, and stop warming your foods with microwave.

His legit side chick, aje

Peter Obi did it in Anambra State, when he was governor, then, Anambra was the most dangerous state in Nigeria.

Haaaa, he thinks the UK is like Nigeria, where nobody respects the rule of law.

If i were the judge, i would depot him over such callous behaviour.

I pity families that allow their brothers or children to join Nigeria military.

Due to greed, innocent Nigeria soldiers die in the hands of Boko Haram, the same terrorist Nigerian government sponsor directly or indirectly, by pampering them with rehabilitation, compensation and reintegration into the society.

A friend of mine was telling me how a male lecturer impregnated his female student who happens to be his cousin.
He said the cousin eventually delivered the baby.
He said what pains him most is that this his cousin still sends him text messages seeking for financial assistance.
I have seen lecturers getting married to their students but this one stands out.
Maybe the shocker I may hear soon will be that of a male student impregnating his female lecturer.
Wonders shall never end.

If you can't provide the university name, department and lecturer name, then you and your friend should Getat

I bank with GTBank and have been doing so for over 15 years and so far I have never experienced any of these types of issues

Maybe there is no money in your account, so there is no way you would have experienced it 🤔

TheMensch:
I can't even imagine the stereotype this guy has faced (will still face) in his life. Japan people are the worst racists.

It is not true, in Asia, they are more accommodating than any other country.

Amovingman:
What about Peter obi family in higher positions what did you have to say about that

Peter Obi has only 2 children, a boy and a girl.

The girl teaches as a teacher in a government secondary school, while the boy is based in UK, and doesn't care about his father's businesses in Nigeria.

So don't let your hate drown you.

Watch as the fulanis will try to take over that place with a strong sense of entitlement. A once peaceful state.

ChizzyBuna:
There is a POS babe I have been toasting for 1 week. This morning I was in her shop toasting her when Taskforce people came and grab her POS signpost and seized it
Me personally didn't stand up only her stood up and confront them. They ended up tearing and destroying the signpost and I was just there sitting and did nothing.

Now I'm thinking if I should have acted and try restrain taskforce since I'm the guy toasting her to prove my masculinity
Or
Did I do the right thing. Buy sitting down and just watching them wreck her sign post

P.S
Her offence was that the post was on the road but it didn't look like it . Anyways did I do right or wrong by not reacting and staying calm

P.S again

See these white knights telling me to man up to 10 taskforce agberos only me??
If na one on one I'm capable but me against 10 hefty agberos. You dey craze??
This is a babe that told me she has a BF/fiance so me dey try play side nigga role chop and clean mouth. I no come this life to die for any banny

Someone told she has a fiance, you still decided to pester her, thinking you are a smart or wise guy, forgetting same event can happen to you with your fiancee as well.

does anyone know how much Oven-baked car painting cost? my painter is charging me 250k

Oven bake paint has different categories, they even have the one for N2m

Nigeria is just beyond comprehension, and some people are busy defending nonsense.

Gbadugbakun:
You are in a bus travelling and suddenly a traditional doctor stops the bus, says he's seeing an accident ahead and wants to drop off with his bags. A pastor calls from the back seat saying, 'Nothing will happen, let's go.' As a passenger, what will you do?

I would listen to the traditional man, most men of God don't know what they are doing, particularly the ones in Nigeria.

Christianity as a religion is a multi billion dollar industry here in Nigeria, fake pastors cashing out on gullible Nigerians.
