The maintenance culture in the west is superior to the one in the east. Their roads are better, they have more money to regular servicing. That’s why you can buy a 20 year old car that looks new after a good detailing from the west.

We also have more Nigerians in the west than in the east. It’s these individuals that facilitate the purchase, inspection and shipping of the vehicles to Nigeria.

The statement did not end with AA. It didn’t come from Atiku. Even Atiku knows there’s nothing for him and his herd of former leaders.

The APC made a good choice. Congrats Prof.

So if she goes out in the ‘killer dress’ what exactly would happen?

It’s the man who typically gets blamed for situations like this even though 90% of the time the woman is the reason for the situation.

Some women are very eager to get married and they pursue every means to get closer to their goal. Some of the means includes cohabitation, pregnancy, engagement-some women buy their own rings. Most of the time these things are solely designed by the woman and the man only gave in after persistent nagging.

The woman is also never tied down, she’s on the lookout. If someone else comes her way she will throw the ring to his face. If no one comes she will continue holding on to him with the expectation that he would eventually marry her.

Atiku will be 85 in 2031. This is his last rodeo. Who joins a coalition without knowing the direction they plan to go? Even if Atiku decides not to run, can Obi defeat Ameachi in the primaries?

When APC was formed it was clear who was going to run, the primaries was a formality.

Change is hard. It’s ok for the university to kick against it but the president is within his rights to name or rename any federal government institution.

Eventually the new name sticks. Like OAU or OOU. As long as the federal government funds these universities, appoints their governing bodies etc, they will remain at the mercy of the president.

You notice how the opposition parties are criticizing this move? The desperation for a fathom 12 million Buhari’s vote has shut them up.

Or he can’t write in English? If he could write in his language he would ask for extra sheet.

He did it out of pity for Nigerians or he was too cowardly to implement a policy he campaigned with? Or perhaps he didn’t want to deal with the fall out of the removal. Hence, he eventually removed it but only after he left office. Yet people insulted and continue to insult him.

Buhari not getting rid of fuel & forex subsidy inflicted pain on Nigeria and Nigerians didn’t fare any better. If he was bold enough to do the hard thing, Nigeria will be benefiting from it today and his legacy would have been cemented forever.

For example he wasn’t exactly liked when he was head of state, but the legend of his discipline and strong stance against corruption was well documented, the exact reason he was supported to be President. Do the right thing, even when the process is difficult , people will celebrate the result.

Jazzy is single, 2baba is not.

With married people sex is sex most of the time. Single people expect commitment for the sex. A man who isn’t willing to commit is better off with a woman who doesn’t expect commitment.

You don’t have a woman checking your phone, expecting money, falling in love, asking for marriage, nagging, demanding communication. Etc. You chat or call once a while, you have sex once a while. No pressure.

Men generally are respectful of a married woman status. Generally, if a man is sleeping with a married woman, it’s because she impliedly or expressly showed she was available.

If Atiku gets it, the obidients won’t support the coalition. Majority of the people who voted Obi did so because they wanted a Christian president or a younger president. So more than half of his votes wouldn’t go to Atiku.

If Obi gets it, Atiku will go back to Dubai and stop insulting his friend Tinubu. Most northern leaders wouldn’t put in the effort to support the coalition. Some people think Obi did well in 2023 because he was underestimated and basically ran unopposed. APC and PDP were so focused on each other. This wouldn’t happen in 2027.

All pointers indicates Obi will get the ticket. The chairman of the party is a Northerner. All major southern candidates have insisted on power remaining south. I think Atiku will chill for now and promise to do one term in 2031.

Either ways, non of them can defeat the incumbent. Obi isn’t popular in the North and Atiku’s Northern influence is overrated. He’s ran thrice and he failed in the North all three times. Without the PDP platform he may not be able to get 3m votes in an election.

lol jokers. You think governors want to go back to the days of paying half salary and owing pension for ten years. Most governors are satisfied with the incumbent.

It’s funny how when governors decamp to APC you shout one party state, they only have one vote. When it’s rumoured they will go to ADC, Tinubu is OTP.

The Coalition will hand over their ticket to Obi and the beating he will receive on election day will be unprecedented. Tinubu won 2023 contesting against two prominent northern Muslim candidates and won. Imagine how much more he would have won without Atiku and Kwankwaso on the ballot.

The ADC is planning for 2031. They want a southerner now, so they can have an all Northern contest and demand Obi’s support in 2031. There’s no world where Obi defeats Tinubu in a one on one contest.

No serious presidential candidate will pick a VP with a presidential ambition. There’s a reason Buhari didn’t want Tinubu as vp, Atiku didn’t want Obi or Wike as VP in 2023.

Everyone learnt from Obasanjo’s mistake and will rather pick a gentle and loyal VP than a popular one. Kwankwaso will support Tinubu without decamping. He’s closer to Tinubu than he is to Atiku. In 2023 Kwankwaso said he would have supported Tinubu if he wasn’t contesting.

The kids look like future Wahala wahala wahalaa.

Just wondering out...
Can a Nigerian wedding cost 1billion naira??
Even if Dangote himself marries Folorunso Alakija...

1 billion naira isn’t up to $1m. There are definitely weddings that will cost that much. Rich people always overpay for everything in the name of quality . They would hire chefs that cost $2000 per hour, decorator from France that charge $50,000. Photographer with a PhD from Harvard $30,000 before you know it adds up to $1m.

They say women want two things, more & different.

Somewhere in the world, there’s a woman tormenting a man’s life with her demand for commitment/marriage. As soon as he marries her she then wants to be single again.

When the marriage ends she will enjoy the single life for 5 months then start tormenting another man with talks of commitment/marriage.

It could mean two things;

1. She thinks of you as a ritualist. You are trying to lure her to death with the promise of money/phone.

2. She doesn’t have the strength to have sex with you all day as you demanded.

Stop demanding for sex as a means of compensation. If you want to have sex with someone let them know, don’t wait till they request something then offer it in exchange for sex. It may not mean anything to you now until you become wealthy or famous, then something you did twenty years ago will be used to destroy you.

So you know there’s dirt but won’t check because you are afraid to dig it up. You will rather live in fools paradise. Some of us will rather find out and be partnerless.

From the conversation, she was open to reconciliation at the time. It’s possible the guy now has PTSD from women and wasn’t interested in her anymore.

Guys should be careful of the things they say to women by text, voice messages and even calls. Most women have these weird obsession with sharing screenshots and recordings with their friends.

I remember back then when some state governors couldn’t pay workers salary, my church in one of those states shared foodstuff every week, not just to members but to everyone who came.

Those of you who shout pulpit bandits every Sunday, go and learn about the welfare package of most churches.

There were no phones, people didn’t have to go to work and people didn’t have rights then. These days we have something similar called therapy.

The mindset that people in diaspora are rich isn’t limited to just the masses, the government share the same notion and are just trying to get their share anyhow.

The payment didn’t start today, it’s been there since inception. In Canada we pay $91 for NIN and $102 for BVN. You can’t renew your passport without NIN, you need BVN to operate a Nigeria bank account.

Of course, one could travel to Nigeria to get it done for free, but a typival Naija trip will set you back atleast $5,000 (flight, gifts and walk around money). So unless you have reasons to be in naija, it’s easier to part with $200 and be done with it.

Who says the wife isn’t cheating or hasn’t cheated? she probably would have told her own friends too.

Just like athletes face the risk of injury, being cheated on is a risk you face when you choose to marry. You can do everything right and it would still happen.

You need to understand and accept the risk so it’s not a surprise if/when it eventually happens. You see people killing the other guy, their partners or even themselves and you just know these losers never thought a woman could cheat.

There should be no time limit to the first round. As a matter of fact, the first round should be the only round if you do the job properly. If you arrive only after her arrival or arrive when she tells you she’s tired, you won’t need a second round.

Second round is a proof of your failure, it’s like failing an exam and having to resit.

Kwankwaso is a politician with class. When you lose election you quietly walk away until it’s campaign time again. Let your party spokesperson do the chochocho.

How many times have you heard Joe Biden, Kamala Harris or Nancy Pelosi speak about Trump or the state of the nation? Here in Nigeria you see sore losers granting press statements every two seconds, running from TV to podcast embarrassing themselves.

In this time and age, you don’t have to ask a girl out to find out if they like you too.

1.Collect her number or start with social media ID - Tell her about something trending on SM, ask if she has IG or Twitter or Snapchat, if she has one, ask for it. If she doesn’t ask for her number. If she isn’t comfortable with giving you any of these, she doesn’t like you.

2. When you get her number or SM, chat her up on a random Saturday, ask how her day is going, if she misses work etc, if she’s willing and comfortable to chat with you, go to step 3. If she doesn’t chat with you, it means she gave you her contact out of courtesy, stop chatting her.

3. Take your chatting to weekdays after work or even at work. Gossip, send memes, ask if she’s busy. Walk up to her sometimes and have a 2 mins convo about work. Randomly ask about her weekend plans and invite her out to a party, to your church, or out to lunch. If she accepts she wants an off-work relationship, if not she doesn’t.

4. Now you are close enough, start joking around ask about her relationship, throw sex conversations in the mix once a while- don’t over-do it, be subtle. If she laughs at your sexual innuendos then the time is ripe. Make sure you define what kind of relationship you want with her.

5. I won’t recommend workplace relationships because relationships end and things can get awkward. She may start dating someone else in the same company, get a promotion over you, or get in a situation where you feel the need to defend her at your dentriment. It only works well when two married people are involved or if the woman is married.

Atiku that took back his criticism of religious extremist that set an innocent girl on fire because he was afraid of losing votes is talking about ending boko haram.

If Boko Haram threaten to not vote him in 2027, he would deny he ever said this.

Women get called stingy too, mostly by other women. You hear things like buy new wigs, spend this money, don’t be stingy.

Regardless of your gender don’t let anybody pressure you into spending money on things you deem unnecessary.

It’s clear she likes him, but this isn’t proof of cheating.

The same couples going through it are usually the ones advising people to get married.

How is this old man NANS president? Does NANS not stand for National Association of Nigerian Students? Is this grandpa a student?
