french Cameroon member cameroonpride/camnewton4prez said we should make french our national language

That english speakers are too sensitive, can't take jokes. .being sensitive will not take you far in this hard life

In as much I am a proud english speaker
I feel so bad that english is not working for nigeria

I will miss London and the uk
And being known as a former British colony

It sucks french and Portuguese etc don't respect english speakers
Uk is a lovely country but sadly they are sensitive

What do you think?

But French has been Nigeria's 2nd official language since 1996.

What do they teach you people in school these days?

I have noted some embarrassing and laughable one sided narrative to the war between Russia and Ukraine.
I get amused when I read that Russia fired 100 drones and Ukraine downed 99 of them, while Ukraine fired 20 drones and all hit targets in Russia. Can these be true?.
Everyday we are told that Russia has lost 100, 000 soldiers at once and Ukraine have lost none, yet in reality Ukraine has been totally devastated.
These propaganda are going too far, and will ruin Ukraine instead of helping to end the war and save the nation from obliteration.

Ukraine is no match for Russia no matter the western support it gets. Right now they are stacking army chiefs and an officer refuses to replace him.

Please help end the war and save Ukraine.
A referendum can be organized for the break away Republics and grant them independence to save face for Ukraine and the west

It is no news when dog bites a man, but it is great news when a man bites a dog. So if Ukraine shoots down only one Russian drone, it must be celebrated by the west.

Russia can devastate much of Ukraine and Ukraine can only defend themselves on their soil. A lot of the weapons being given to Ukraine by the West come with the condition that they will not be used inside Russia.

Using those weapons inside Russia can give Russia reasons to use nuclear weapons, a risk the West don't want to take at this time.

The West is hoping that they can frustrate Russia by Ukrainian resistance just like Afghanistan was able to resist the US for 20 years.

The reality is that the war will end someday, the west just want to drag the war on to keep Russia occupied until something gives.

Putin can lose power and the new leadership of Russia might end the war or the war can drag on untill Putin gets tired and pull back his troops.
Or Putin might die and leave Russia without good leadership forcing Russian troops to abandon the war.

The west has still not come up with a clear plan of Ukraine winning the war on the battlefield.

Moreover, the west has been involved in proxy wars for decades and they don't care about the human loss. Money is being made from weapon sales.

If the war between Russia and Ukraine is causing you headache, then just assume that both Russia and Ukraine are in Africa, that way the human loss will not seem much anymore. Alternatively you can assume that Russia is Israel and Ukraine is Palestine. That way you will understand why Russia can bomb Ukraine but Ukraine are not allowed to do any retaliation inside Russia.

Mysteriousworld:
My neighbor and his wife are always fighting...
What bothers me is their son, the marriage isnt healthy for him.
For the first time, i helped them settle their fight yesterday.
I listened to them both.
The mans complain is that his wife doesnt respect him at all, for example, she says ; "im going to pure the dustbin away" then she doesnt return in another 2 hrs, she wont pick calls or she left her phone at home,(he claims hes sure shes not cheating, because thats where my mind went) when she gets back and he complains, she'll now start her own anger, saying he has no right to tell her that....shes not a child and so on....(the man doesnt police her, just expects her to tell him her whereabout).
She finds it hard to say sorry(he says that scares him)
She's never wrong.... And always has an excuse for being wrong...a narcissist i guess.

The wife says everything the man complained about is unnecessary, says he complains about unnecessary things... He complains too much.... Thats her problem with him.(she was in tears through out)

This is what caused the fight yesterday...
They were playing and happy till they decided to go out together... Then the husband noticed her waist beads, thats where quarrel started, to the point that she bite him, and he slapped her back.... All in the eyes of their son.
He said the first day they started dating, she was wearing waist bead, he told her he hates it and she removed it immediately.... Only for her to start wearing it after marriage... He said he had been complaining about it for 6 months now, until yesterday when he insisted she must remove it...

To cut the long story short, he said hes done with the marriage, and to my surprise she said she is too, she left to sleep in a guest house yesterday, says shes coming to park her load this morning...
She said she'll leave with her son , he said she cant leave with his son... I guess thats where therell be issue this morning, based on the custody of the child.

The story long but this is a summary...
Pls... Matured minds on nairaland....
Im confused and dont know if i should try and help them settle it... Because a part of me is thinking its better for them to go separate ways, since none of them is ready to bow to the other... At the same time... Im thinking i can help them settle it...
Its just clear there will be a big issue on who takes the child this morning if they decide to end it.

Seems the lady is immature for marriage.

There are some red flags
Where does she go to those periods that she finds difficult to explain to her husband?
Who is she wearing waist beads for if the husband detest it?

The man also his fault, why stress yourself over waist bead that you can cut off when she is asleep or during lovemaking,? If I were in his shoes I will be flushing the waist bead down the toilet every night while she is sleeping. How many beads can she replace in a month? But for me, waist bead means nothing unless she is wearing it to please another man.

Talk to the man to save his marriage, the lady is foolish but marriage is for better for worse.

If they must separate, then the woman should go with the child. A man can not be chasing money, new women, managing extended financial expectations and then add child rearing to it

How do you even know that the woman spent last night in a hotel? It is possible she spent it with another man,.the man that is pushing her to break her marriage.

Saw one cool guy with cornrows
Gosh, he must be igbo

I just love the hiphop/rap scene in abuja

All the hip-hop fans there always rep with their du rags and cornrows

Portharcourt sucks mehn

If you are not living in abuja or lagos, we are not living the nigerian dream, mehn

That is not true.

I am even thinking of avoiding Lagos totally, too much shitty borehole water in Lekki. The joy of fresh water shower in phc or warri is one of the great pecks of the those places.

Does it come with the petrol engine for that price?

Jayden001:
Me I'm not ready for any monthly stipend oo. This January I'm driving him out of my house never to return again. I've done my best for him. I'm planning on starting a family, it's time to face my own family

Don't worry, you will come around and realize that you can't easily run away from a lazy close family member.

As long as you have some money, he will be there to fleece you.

Jayden001:
Hello peeps!
My younger brother is the laziest being I've ever seen in my entire life. He's not a kid though, he'll soon be 25 but he's dead lazy.
Since he finished secondary school six years ago, he has absolutely nothing doing at the moment.

There's no funds to send him to higher institution especially when he cannot even contribute anything financially to the course.

He collects money from my mom at every chance he gets because me and my elder brother have stopped giving him money.

For the past six years, we have tried to get him learn a skills, businesses and trades but he always run back home or bluntly refuse the offer
He went to serve one man that sells mattress, the man is an authorized dealer for two companies, this man promised to settle him well like he has settled many guys from our place, but my brother came back saying there's no gain in the business. Mind u the man and all the guys he settled are all doing well.

Another apprentice deal was with one billionaire from my village. The man is based in Lagos, an importer and exporter. The man too have settled many people from our village too and all his boys are doing well. But my brother came back saying that the manager sends him and other two guys (latest intakes) to the warehouse while the manager and the rest stays in the outlet shops where there are ACs. Without even telling his master he ran back home from Lagos.

We sent he to learn plastic business, it would take 6 months or less we promised to gave him some funds for startup but oga said no.

He's been to countless other apprenticeships but he always came back home moving from one "brother's" house to another. Sleeping and snoring from morning to night. And he can finish food meant for ten people all alone.

I'm planning on driving him out of my house cos I've tried my best for him.

Just prepare to be feeding him and paying for his house rent for the next 30 to 40 years.

Many families have 1 or 2 of these type of children.
No matter what you do, they don't man up.
If you don't give them money, they starve and still refuse to work and the society blames you for letting your brother to be hungry or homeless.

I have one like your brother. I have placed him on minimal monthly stipend for over a decade now.

My cousin just traveled to UK last week for his master and he has some Naira in his Nigeria account….is it advisable for him to buy dollars and hold?
He will spending at least 5 years in the UK before coming back.

He should buy USD or pound sterling and keep.

The naira has been depreciating since the 80's and will continue to depreciate for the foreseeable future.

It's normal for u to come home find ur wife hanging, cut the rope ,bring her down and be on top to see if u can revive her, shey na under her he for dey?
Pray no such thing happen to u, then everyone will become cid for ur matter

Nigeria police are useless.

Why arrest the man before concluding investigation?

A man lost his wife, in such traumatic situation all they could think of is to arrest the husband without evidence of the husband committing a crime.
Investigation needs to be concluded before arresting anyone. Locking people up in the name of investigation is abuse of the constitution and abuse of people's rights.

yinkus6750:
So sad.
But what is the husbands involvement in her death ?
The present situation in the country is highly frustrating.
May God help us all

The police just abuse the rights of the citizens without even thinking of what the constitution says.

If a woman commits suicide, why should the police arrest the husband without clear evidence of the husband committing a crime?

Now the young children have both parents taken away from them.

And if the man does not bribe the police to be left off the hook, they might charge him for murder without enough evidence and just keep him in prison for years awaiting trial, just because he refused to offer bribe.

The constitution is clear, the police needs to bring a suspect to court within 24 hours of his arrest since the arrest was done in a city with court available to take the case.

The police is not allowed by the constitution to just go about locking people up and saying that the want to do investigation. They are to investigate first, find the required evidence for a prosecution being arresting those implicated.

EmperorCaesar:
As for the viral load becoming low, does it means it reduced since she started taking her med or the virus doesnt get to multiply and just retained the same load


If it does reduces, shey e fit reduce so tey all the virus go finish for the person body

It reduces and also unable to multiply as long as the drugs are being taken.

Just that some remain in a dormant state, so it does really reduce to zero. The dormant ones will start to multiply again if the drugs are stopped.

So according to your words
A HIV positive can sleep with HIV negative and still nothing will happen.. no transmission

Now I understand why they use fear and propaganda to make HIV look real..
Same thing with corona virus. All na scam

HIV positive woman who is faithfully on her medication will have a very low virial load that can even be undetectable, at such low virial load, it is extremely difficult for her to infect a man through normal sex.

You say HIV is a scam, I will not try to convince you otherwise. I believe in survival of the fittest, some people who choose not to learn from the experience of others should be allowed to taste the outcome of their stupidity, those with better reasoning knows how to source for data and evaluate the data and draw up valid conclusions, those with impaired reasoning should be allowed to die out.

I know multiple people who contracted HIV in the 90's and died. I have two close people who have been HIV positive for the past 15 years, they are taking their meds and are relatively ok.

Continue having unprotected sex, we have over 200 million people in Nigeria, even if HIV kills one million people who are not smart enough to protect themselves, Nigeria population will still be above 200 million, and the average IQ of the remaining population might even increase since one million of those with lower IQ would have been killed.

Ghostly accident?🤣🤣🤣

The accident caused them to become ghosts, that is ghostly accident.

KnowledgePower7:
I know of a man who found out his wife was HIV positive. The man did test in different hospitals and still came out HIV negative.

The lady later confess to hiding her status secretly treating it before they even married.
And the man has been raw dogging, Ice-Cream, sloppy sloppy all inside her for 2 years and still came out HIV negative.
This life is mysterious

What is mysterious about this?

The woman was taking her meds, that means her virial load became very low. In that state it is almost impossible for her to infect a man through sex.

DawsonCole:
Hello!

I am a Nigerian, passionate about Nigeria and the growth of Nigeria. I am very well aware that agriculture is an integral sector for the sustainable growth and development of any society. I have come to realise that many Nigerians do not like farming, do not like to produce, but rather want to consume. Sadly, we cannot grow this way as a country, and even more sadly, unemployed and underemployed Nigerians still do not see agriculture as an option. How bad if you ask me.

Growing up as a kid, farming was something I really enjoyed doing. I was actively involved in the cultivation of beans, corn, groundnut and potatoes. Several times, produce from the small farm in my family compound saved us from hunger. In the mornings, I will stroll to the farm at the back of the house, harvest some potatoes, go to the kitchen, wash the potatoes, peel off the back, wash it, fry it, and breakfast is served!

Right now, due to the nature of my work, I cannot directly be involved in farming, no matter how hard I try. As a result, I have thought to support (by investment) local farmers who are highly passionate about agriculture (prefereably someone with a degree in the Agricultural sciences or related field) and has some experience in agriculture. A degree in agriculture may not be needed if the person can prove that they have at least 3 years of continuous experience in agriculture.

If you are (or if you know anyone who is) highly interested in agriculture (whatever type - but prefarably cocoa, rubber, palm oil, diary, or similar high value agro products), kindly invite them to this thread. They should say what they are currently doing, provide pictures of their farm if possible, and say why they need investment in their business.

Nice one.

But do you have the knowledge needed to select the right person to support?

Farming is a business that can either bring a profit or result in a loss.

If you team up with the wrong person, then you might sustain a loss and be discouraged.

I wish you the best.

This video gives a full account of the similarities and differences between plantain farming and banana farming.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ZRx1krw6dY?si=fhKA0yXZs6R9Z-xu

You are wrong in some of the things you said in your video.

There are major difference between plantain and banana that you did not also talk about.

Banana bears more suckers than plantain, you said plantain bears more suckers. Infact one of the ways to identify a banana stand in the wild is to look at how crowded the stands are. Banana stands become more crowded than plantain stands if suckers are not removed.

2. Bananas are more weedy than plantain, so banana compete more with weeds than plantain. If you leave a plantain farm unattended, weeds will destroy the farm and the numbers of plantain in the farm will reduce drastically. However, if you leave a banana farm unattended, it will outcompete weeds and continue to thrive in large numbers, however the numbers of suckers per stand will increase so much that the bunch yield per sucker becomes very small due to competition between the banana plants.

3. When left unattended, Bananas do not die out while plantains die out after a few years.

4. Banana is easier to grow in places with high weed pressure when compared to plantain.

There are bananas I stopped maintaining 6 years because the variety is not ok for me, they are still in the farm doing well without any care, whereas my plantains needs active weed management to survive.

5. Plantain leaves and leaf stalk are yellowish green while banana leaves and leaf stalk are whitish green. This is the easiest way to distinguish plantain from banana if you know what to look for.

6. You can use unripe banana for many of the things that you use plantain for. You can turn it into banana chips just like plantain chips, you can also turn it into banana flour just like plantain flour.

He deleted the tweet because he later realize that it can be interpreted to me that he is not supporting Tinubu on the certificate issue.

That can be a costly position for a public officer in Nigeria of today. In many cases their loyalty is not to the country and the laws of the country, but rather to whoever is in power at a particular time.

Aside from rodent infestation, we had to deal with caterpillars but we employed a preventive measure. cobs came out looking super healthy and attractive

Pesticide used : DPRO insecticide
Active ingredient is Emmamectine Benzoate
I get my agroinputs from Ceda Agro in Abeokuta. She is the best supplier i can think of. This particular product was recommended by her, dosage and all


I mixed a sachet in 5 litres of water and measured out 100ml per knapsack. It was magical, there was not a single cob with caterpillar attack

Nice info

Ask your government who collects 300k per trailer load from us.

If the government is collecting 300k per trailer load, that means the felling is sanctioned and regulated by the government.

I wanted to confirm that it is not illegal felling of trees.

Kukutente23:
Results are dosed to be transmitted directly from polling units according to our electoral act.

Yes, the results will be transmitted manually directly from the polling units.

Inec will do this and claim that they have complied with the electoral act.

Because the word electronically was not stated but only implied in the electoral act, inec is using that as excuse to do manual transmission of results.

The Senate need to quickly modify the statement in act by specifically stating that the the results must be recorded electronically at the polling units and transmitted electronically directly from the polling units.

The crooks at INEC must be instructed clearly by the electoral act without any ambiguity.

From available records, Tinubu and Remi got married in 1987, for the Social security number created in 1976 to capture the 1987 marriage means some update has been done on it.

I wish to ask a professional advice on planting tomatoes by October - December months.

Suggestions and ideas are all welcome

Thanks

Which state do you want to plant it?
Which species do you want to plant?
Are you planning to grow it in a roofed area or do you want to grow it in the open field
Do you intend to grow them in the ground or are you planning on growing them in sacks or grow bags?
Do you know about tomatoes diseases and how to manage them?

Tomatoes is not for novice farmers, if you have not grown tomatoes before, then wait for dry season to try it with drip irrigation.

Guys, befor you start a relationship with any girl, ask for hookup first and see her reaction.

He asked for her account number, sent her 200,000 Naira. Told her he's very Hot and would rather hookup instead of dating her. She agreed. That's how she failed his test.

I know this your story is fake and scripted, but let's continue.

Tell him to try this exact test on 50 girls and tell us how many passed.

He will only spend 10m on the test.

Mumu man.

He gave a girl 200k and was not expecting the girl to submit her stuff instantly. Serious mumu man
