Though I don't support the maltreatment of workers, but the househelp shouldn't act like an ingrate. There's always 2 sides to a story and her complaint leaves so much unanswered. Is it possible that 20 pounds is all she's being paid? Really? By those who took her abroad in the first place?

It takes a lot to take someone abroad and give the person a better life, she should appreciate that. It's not like she had it better in Nigeria, so why should she bite the fingers feeding her over minor dispute.

The hardworking couple went through the stress of bringing her from Nigeria to the UK to help them babysit and keep the home, if she has issues, she should have found a way to table her complaints in a sensible way.

Most of these so-called househelps end up becoming arrogant and disloyal when they start having "london friends".

Pls put yourself in the house-help shoe. Will you like such treatment just because they brought u to UK.£20 per week for all that work she narrated. Haba!

LOL, I use my handbrake whenever I park my car. In fact I engage handbrake before putting the car to park. That way it saves the transmission from damaging when u park on a sloppy road. Have u ever wondered why it becomes difficult to get ur car out of park whenever u park on a slope? That's because the gear is resting downwards the slope and it can damage ur transmission whenever u force ur car out of park. But when u engage handbrake before going into park, the brakes are preventing the car from moving down the sloap rather than being stopped by the transmission, so when u want to get out of park it becomes easy. Try it and u will know ur handbrake is not for fashion.

Nice one. Makes lots of sense to me.

So how did Yakubu Aiyegbeni and likes,take cross and convince Oyibo.

Politicians and civil servants are another big age liars

The Ooni,who is the successor of Oduduwa is not supposed to attend the Coronation or turbaning of every tom,dick and Harry.ooni Ogunwusi should know that stool is too sacred for him to wakabout all over d land . if not,that office will be decanonized and demystified by the powers that be in the northern hemisphere.he shiuld learn to respect himself.no wonder he was slighted by the Oba Of Lagos

Abeg, who appoints or chooses the ooni? Is it the oracle or the titled elders? Just being curious.

Why are they jittery if they delivering their promises

Let's nominate him for "lies" Grammy award for 2017. His submission could win lai Muhammed's last one...during Buhari health leave in London.

nwabobo:
Which bank account do they pay your salary into Ogbeni?

He collects his own for hand ni? Cold don dey catch me

That means, Buhari/ Osibanjo were right all these while.

In that case, they'll keep on renominating him.

#Senate house of Corruption.

I fail to understand how Jehovah Witness and 7th day Adventists all of a sudden became terrorist organisations in Russia and classed in the same category as ISIS.

Do they carry gun while preaching or throw bomb or by any other means kill in the name of God. Someone please help me understand.

I see Bible prophecy being fulfilled but I least expect it will come from Russia. Read between the lines.

Please show us how the churches and mosques are helping the citizens to hold the government responsible.
Thanks

You might need to read my comment again but may be now with aim to understand it because your question does seem to be non-aligning.

Churches are never set up to help the citizens to hold the govt responsible. It is not their primary job as an organisation but rather it's you as an individual who is responsible to ask questions.

Regards.

Nice points by the op

But the major aim of establishing the church,even by Jesus Christ himself was to spread the gospel, not really to create jobs. Matthew 28:18-20

This is the responsibility of a sane government, not churches.

You can't blame PHCN for not giving us good roads when their job is to provide electricity

The flamboyant lifestyle of pastors these days calls for serious concern,as many are wolves in sheep clothing, but don't hold your church responsible for the rise in unemployment.

Hold your government responsible

Well said. Correct! I wonder what govt were actually set up to do if citizens prefer not to hold them responsible.

Tolexander:
Ooni Ogunwusi doesn't seem to understand the significance of the seat he is occupying.

[/b] He doesn't know he is now a deity and older than everyone of any age[b]

These our modern Kings should be sincerely and seriously taught the culture before being coronated.

He doesn't see it that way. He surely sees himself as a human being .

Just like Emir Sanusi, they are learned and well exposed, so could find themselves atimes at a cross road trying to balance traditional expectations and modernity.

For Oba Akiolu, I smelt jealousy and arrogance. It was a premeditated action or how else can one explain it.

HungerBAD:
Nothing special here.

He lost and he conceded. What exactly is heroic about that?it is like saying you slept with a Scarlett lady unprotected,and then got infected with Stds,and then you start praising yourself that you went to the hospital to treat yourself.

There is nothing worth praising here. It is just the right thing to do.

It is just that those seeing Jonathan's concession as something big,are those born in the Choco-Milo generation and not aware of how democratic Institutions or societies work.

Never shall we ever allow a thief,married to a female thief,that will bring in their thieving kinsmen and militants,and surrounded by thousands of thieves at once (PDP) near Aso Rock again.

Never again.

I disagree strongly. Not in third world countries where leadership is lordship and not servantship.

Resignation of ordinary appointment is hard talk more of elected president.

If it was easy OBJ wouldn't be pushing for 3rd term.

I don't like GEJ for anything but he at least salvaged the situation which could have been disaster if he didn't act.

rose54321:
Conceding was heroic no matter how anyone tries to twist It.
You might dislike the person of Jonathan or his policies and governing system, but every rational individual knows it takes courage to concede.

Not to cause trouble, but do y'all really think Mr. Buhari can do same, accept defeat and concede. I might be wrong but I strongly doubt it.

Jonathan averted alot by conceding and if only for that he deserves to be praised and remembered in our history books.

Well said. Jonathan showed great strength by conceding. Buhari would likely not.

The video says it all, the Oba of Lagos snubbed the Ooni of Ife.

It's difficult to twist the story to be less unpleasant. I can't still believe it happened.

The question is "Which of the past leaders is NOT corrupt"? Are you scratching your head, don't worry, it's a simple answer, NONE.

If we are really serious about cleaning the Augean table of corruption in Nigeria then we must start probing for leadership accountability spanning from year 1999 till now in both government and private sector. That to me, will help us to reconcile our past and brace ourselves for better future. But as it stands today, I don't see genuine collective interest, support and push to right our wrongs without ethnic, political or religious partisanship and bias.

GEJ disappointed me with his irresponsible leadership and penchant to defend corruption. I have never seen before a democratically elected president defending corruption by all means as GEJ did. EFCC was practically grounded and ministers, governors, directors, perm secs, civil servants, military chiefs etc were competing to steal with reckless abandon while the public are served with lies. Our mumu too much oo.

And Sambo Dasuki's office became a treasure chest for all sorts of withdrawals and wastage in the name of security and politics. I wonder what then finance ministry and CBN was doing with this humongous looting going on under their watch.

And after GEJ reckless govt ended, it seems the masses would finally heave a sigh of relive but NO. Buhari started his own wahala. Almost running the economy aground. Showing gross lack of understanding of complexity of Nigeria and acting in such a manner that creates division instead of building a one Nigeria with less emphasis on religion, political or ethnic affiliations. And the poor masses started losing hope of better future and up till now we don't know what's going on in government.

In fact, I am getting annoyed now let me stop.

An apt description of where we are as a nation today under Buhari leadership.

Overall, Buhari Govt have scored below pass mark. Economy is abysmal failure.

The world is not gonna end yet even if nuclear war breaks out.

Good question

What exactly constitutes extremison?

2016 was a weird year. It disappointed many pastors who had prophesied about the year. Even opinion polls and forecasts were shamed this year esp in America.

ANTONINEUTRON:
U.S.A Government Scrutinising Corruption That Occured In Nigeria??


Na So U.S.A No Get Problem Reach??


I Am Not Understanding All Diz Corruption Issues At All

I tire ooo.

First of all, senseless killing in the name god by insane people under the spell of religion fanatism.

Secondly, pure injustice to the family of the dead when the murderers were allowed to go home...kind of a handshake after commit ting such heinous crime.

Thirdly, Nigerian govt/ NGO/ Easterners are keeping quite as if nothing happened.

Lastly, it appears it have the blessings of some highly connected religious bigots in north who are silently sympathetic to the course of religious cleansing...

Newmanluckyman:
"Nigeria is the largest economy in Africa"......... Nigerians don't feel the impact.Unemployment at its highest level.
" FAAC just allocated over 300 billion naira for the month of November"......... Again it doesn't have impact on nigerians.most people living under the poverty line.
"Nigeria govt budgeted over 7trillion naira for 2017"...... As usual, zero impact on the lives of the ordinary citizens.
"Nigeria recovered about 1 trillion from the looters "..... Just like before, no action no traction.

Federal govt lacked ideas to strike the right chord for the economy to rebound.

If it continues like this...then Buhari should go...He doesn't inspire hope at all.

But you can suggest or use body language...

They should be arrested and charged.

If it is civilian now they will arrest, charged and extort

Can you imagine? Kidnapping as profession.

Greed ! Greed! Greed!

Just imagine what these adults are spewing out of their mouth.

These two people murdered Fakai just for no reason.

Heart of wickedness. Returning good with evil.

Human being has become animals. Predators and ravenous savages. No more love.

People should be very very careful who they employ as assistants. The days are wickedly evil.
