Politics › Re: Salaries Of The First Class And Second Class Kings In Yoruba Land (throwback) by ednut1(m): 1:36am On Dec 26, 2025 |
larryUG: Lol. I am not Yoruba, but let me try to wade in. How can the son be superior to the father? Except you tell me that the Alaafin was never a son of the Ooni. I get that the Alaafin was more of a military king than the Ooni, and thus had more territory, but that doesn't mean he is traditionally superior. Oh on the issue if the salary, the CBN governor is the public official with the highest salary (official salary), even higher than that of the president. Does it make the CBN governor superior to the president who appoints him? There are several reasons that made them consider the salaries. The Olubadan is a second class king but had higher salary than the Ooni and Oba, does it make him superior to them? Let's be logical UK ruled/created USA . USA got independence after fighting UK. Today USA is the world power and dictates to the UK what to do in NATO. As at the time British came Oyo empire was the dominant empire while ife was already dead and long gone. |

Politics › Re: Bayo Onanuga Replies Those Asking For Suspension Of New Tax Laws by ednut1(m): 1:04am On Dec 25, 2025 |
seunmsg: I really pity Taiwo Oyedele. Dude left KPMG where he was worshiped like a god globally to take up the tax reform job thinking it’s going to be a piece of cake like he made his job at KPMG looked like. Today, he has to deal with all kinds of lies, misinformation, misinterpretation, personal attacks, etc.
From governors attacking him to northerners calling him names to journalist like Rufai Oseni reporting outright falsehood to paid Twitter influencers tweeting outlandish nonsense to a whole lots of stuff. Today, the new nonsense they are throwing around is a forged law. Banger boys like Peter Obi etc have quickly jumped on it even without evidence of any irregularity.
So, when people oversimplify governance, I just look at them and laugh at their ignorance. When Elon Musk started DOGE under Trump, someone told him he will soon find out that it’s easier to land a rocket in space than to lead a reform in public sector. Elon barely lasted five months in the Job. PWC not KPMG. Even Nassarawa Governor who was his friend showed him pepper. The governor was formely with Dangote where he worked consulted Mr Taiwo for tax matters. Nigerians are not ready for change . But the government too is not doing enough to build trust relating to taxes |

Travel › Re: Detty December Will Stop Once Afro Beats Stop Being Global by ednut1(m): 9:16pm On Dec 21, 2025 |
motymop: The popularity of detty December is because of the popularity of afro beats.
The same happened when ragge and dance hall were the hottest thing in the world.
Everyone wanted to see Jamaica.
Once that genre of music stop popping, they went to the next one.
It is afro beats time, once the popularity stops, detty December will see its own decline. Fallacy. Jamaican is one of the top travel destinations in the Caribbean till date. Detty December in Nigeria is majorly 98% Nigerians abroad coming back home not foreigners |

guobe: Despite the comfort, good environment and strong economy abroad where Nigerians are based,they still pass through a system where they are not really integrated into the system as the white man sees them as a second class citizen. If you are not white white, they won't rate you . The black man does not care as he keeps on chasing the money to care for his family both abroad and from the home he is coming from. We will keep on pursuing happiness whatever it takes. are Nigerian even second class citizens in their own country? No |
