They just bear Nimi no attachment to it just Nimi Yorubas do not bear just Nimi

Now see the stupidity of Nigerians at play, This guy who stole from Nigerians, Nigerian government and education and future of Nigerian Children WILL NOT GET HALF the tongue lashing Hushpuppi is getting even tho hushpuppi's crime doesn't directly affect them as this guy's crime did

Won't happen but las las hush done chop money, flex life, lived lavish, flown choppers, flown private, had the most exotic cars, mingled with celebs obtained connections, became a known international brand.

No jail can take that away from him, if he comes out of prison he will be better than most poor Nigerians because he has a platform, he has connections, he has experience, he is known and so on. He won't be starting from square 1

He can write a bestseller book, be a TV host, sing music people will buy, sell his story to American media companies, work for security organisations abroad etc

Most Nigerians live in houses worst than American prisons me typing this have not seen electricity in 42 hours straight, I paid aboki 50 bucks to charge my phone, American prisons have 24/7 electricity, gym, free TV, free laundry services, free phone calls and free food that is why black Americans even the celebs see jail as an achievement as street cred status bringer

how many haven't been to jail? you tell me as we speak many US celebs are in jail including Steven Spielberg's daughter, R Kelly, Da baby etc
Even Robert Downey Jr, Lil Kim, tommy Lee, Mark Wahlberg have all been to U.S prison
Their prison is not like our own many come out of jail looking better than they did before they went in.

Those quoting me will chose 10 - 15 years in American prison and a lifetime of living lavish for themselves and their family without thinking twice over being a poor Nigerian from birth to death.

Ask yourself what odds hushpuppi had of being as rich as he was without doing what he did? We all know majority of Nigerians will be born into poverty and will die in poverty but we all want to delude ourselves by thinking "I will be the one to make it" niggger that's what the other 100,000,000 dead Nigerians before you thought, you think every poor Nigerian chose to be poor? or they don't know your God or another one is "if he didn't do crime he would be enjoying by now!" Nigguh enjoying what exactly

Simple question please how many Nigerian lawyers do you know richer than or even half as rich as Hushpuppi? Even the celebs how many of them where as rich as hush? Only the very top 1%

Another quick question? Ask them how many years and how much suffering, and how much connections etc it took them to get that degree and then that position and if the pay for those without connection is adequate, do the same for every other profession except clergy and politicians

And decide for yourself what chance the vast majority of Nigerians have of becoming millionaires or even hundred thousandnaires ?

I'm not encouraging crime please don't do crime but let us be realistic in our thoughts and speech,

I thought if you go to school you must be rich until I was in a slum and a woman told me she did her youth service in taraba, I was surprised I was like wtf excuse me, she said yes she served in.... She didn't know I was thinking shocked thinking to myself "how did you go to school for 17+ years only to end up in this slum in this poverty" I assumed everyone in slums where uneducated never do wells, miscreants etc.

Imagine if she, like most young girls were compelled to sleep with lecturers for grades, or sorted to pass and all that thinking riches were ahead of them upon graduation only to end up in a slum without husband and children hey this isn't fiction this lady was quarrelling with another non educated woman the other day I recorded what the women were using to insult her. Her lack of husband and children she kept saying she sacrificed all that for school and her future but you decide if this is a future worth losing sleep for, worth losing meaningful relationships for

Don't worry out of respect and privacy I didn't show her face.

Extra fun fact did you know?? Nigeria made more money from Yahoo boys in 2019 than from Agriculture think about it.

Personal life of this particular nature has nothing to do with their work.

So if he married multiple wives would they have relieved him of the job

Una never taya?

Wait na after election we see the results

Mumu people what is the difference between APC and PDP I thought Edo election would open your eyes but it clearly didn't

It's the same men in PDP in APC, a bunch of loot some cross carpeters nothing more

Diplomat Sacked For Exposing How Dutch Government, Companies Engage In Corruption In Nigeria
Smaling, who was stationed in Nigeria between 2015 and 2018 to lobby for the economic interests of the Netherlands, had repeatedly warned the country’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs of 'endemic corruption' in Nigeria.

Atop Dutch diplomat, Hans Smaling, has been sacked from his position after comments about alleged unethical conduct and corruption indulged in by the country’s businesses operating in Nigeria.


Smaling, who was stationed in Nigeria between 2015 and 2018 to lobby for the economic interests of the Netherlands, had repeatedly warned the country’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs of 'endemic corruption' in Nigeria.

According to Smaling, it was impossible to advance Dutch businesses in Nigeria without making dirty hands, NRC, a Dutch online news outlet reported.

“Bringing in assignments in Nigeria without paying a bribe? Impossible. Do Nigerian politicians get excited about Dutch companies without gifts? Impossible. And proclaim this message in The Hague? Just as complicated, unfortunately,” he reportedly said.

Hans Smaling
He said the country was in Nigeria for itself and his advocacy for Netherlands to work on the investment climate, on building the country, on macroeconomic stability, reforms and regulation did not find favour with authorities at the foreign ministry.

The newspaper report said Smaling’s position was created in 2012 after the Foreign Economic Relations Department was transferred from Economic Affairs to Foreign Affairs Ministry.

The new position was created for ‘promoting the competitive position of the Netherlands’: that of economic envoy/regional business developer. These special envoys were stationed in areas of economic interest to the Netherlands such as Singapore, Dubai, Lima, Copenhagen and Nigeria.

After 34 years of field service, Smaling knows perfectly well how Dutch business operates abroad as well as how to facilitate this as a diplomat and how to keep an appropriate distance from it.

Dutch Ambassador Leaked Information To Shell On Investigation Into Company’s Operations In Nigeria

“I wrote a contribution in the weekend folder for the ministers. In it, I addressed endemic corruption in Nigeria. I wrote that I found it strange that the Dutch Government facilitates companies that have to deal with corrupt practices.

"We are not going back to the times of the Governor-General in the former Dutch East Indies, Abraham van Riebeeck, who said: It is immoral but beneficial. I also mentioned Shell. It was clear that no company – not even Shell – escapes gross corruption in Nigeria.”

Smaling also spoke regularly with Mr Petri, the ambassador removed from his post in 2019 after he himself leaked secret information about the criminal investigation on Shell to the oil company.

Hunchogee:
My brother is bad that we don't tour our locality to know what is abound...though am from this area both I never knew we had all this, honestly so we need not wait for government honestly

Unfortunately you have to wait for Government if you want to succeed, I wanted to get a fishing vessel those things are made expensive but then when I saw the insecurity and how underdeveloped the Riverine areas are no, no I had to forget it there's no way to make a profit and I am not Dangote, Apple or NBA that can afford to run at a loss for years infact I can't afford to lose for even a year since the money will be a loan and as a young person with little to no assets hmmm e get as e be except govmt secures these areas, build them up about as in Road networks and Electricity forget it very little can be done by low budget folks like myself.

P.s like you I'm from somewhere around this area, so it's more than just making profit to me

These politicians spend atleast 35k on internet monthly ask Joe Abah on twitter, they spend over 100k on diesel for generators and Fuel for cars, they spend over 40k to pay each security or gateman, driver and cook/cleaners monthly so what exactly do they want this 20k for?

Is it 20k they used to send their kids abroad? Or build those mansions in Abuja, Lagos and the one in their various villages? (empty houses they never stay in except Christmas those following Adanna and David on YouTube or Ike ekweremadus daughter on Instagram can testify ) and the houses abroad were their children stay was it 20k that built it?

We need to do something, enough of this suffering and smiling.

These old men are WICKED!!!

even for just 20k they don't want the poor, the average Nigerian to eat they want to collect this one too what happened to all the allocations they get?

If it is to carry sniper and climb mountain or hill around Abuja and take these old farts out abeg let us do it.

Who dey cook for these people Una no know where dem dey sell poison?

Even if it is to rig election for totally new sets of people to enter office let us do it na time no dey oh before you close eye open 2 terms, 8years, 2 president's = 16years of your life wasted still hoping for a better Nigeria "one day e go better" People dey die go e never still better, you done dey old finish oh

A prominent art historian has called on the renowned auction house, Christie's, to cancel the sale of two Nigerian sculptures to be put up for auction shortly.

Prof Chika Okeke-Agulu told the BBC the two objects were "looted" from shrines in south-eastern Nigeria during the civil war in the late 1960s.

Christie's rejects this, saying the sale is perfectly legal.

The items are expected to sell for $280,000-$390,000 (£230,00-£320,000).

The Biafran war - that many prefer to forget
The wooden objects about 1.5 metres high, one male and one female, represent deities from the Igbo community, their hands face upwards waiting to receive sacrifices and gifts.

Prof Chika Okeke-Agulu from Princeton University says the objects were looted from communal shrines in his native Anambra state, with the help of local conspirators.

He said they could not have been acquired legally because they were removed during the Biafra civil war, when the Igbo community attempted to secede from Nigeria.

The historian believes the loss of these sculptures has meant that a key part of Igbo cultural identity has been lost for future generations.

What does Christie's say?
Christie's has defended the auction expected to take place at 13:00 GMT.

In a statement, it said that at no stage "has there been any suggestion that these statues were subject to improper export".


According to the auction house, the sculptures were acquired by Jacques Kerchache, a French art collector and a close adviser to former French President Jacques Chirac.

"There is no evidence these statues were removed from their original location by someone who was not local to the area," Christie's said.

It also said that there was no evidence the items were taken from an area that was part of the conflict at the time.

Calls for the repatriation of African artefacts have grown in recent years, with the #BlackLivesMatter protests reigniting those demands.

An online petition with over 2,000 signatories calls for the sale to be cancelled.
