Some people do. I prefer not to. I wasn’t raised like that.

Pikin hard to raise, abeg. I don’t care which gender. Pikin na pikin.

Children know the difference between good and evil. Seeing animals getting slaughtered didn’t affect you. It won’t affect the average child. Evil people show glaring signs.

We4all:
Because I wasn't an evil child.

The male officer was exposed to it as a child. The female officer wasn’t. Would you want your child to be the one who fainted at the sight or to be the one who waved it off and carried out his/her duty?

I was in Germany some years ago at the asylum camp in certain rural setting in Hamburg...

The place is deserted only very old couples with large build up for asylum housing...

One of our camper, a guinea guy, crossed the fence into the next compound ND stole chicken .. the old couple HV like 10k birds of poultry farm... They saw him taking it instead ran inside locked themselves up for fear of being attacked and called the police on the camp.. this happened in the afternoon..

When the police arrived, a male and a female office.. usually, they are always make and female office.. they were led by the complainant ND the camp officers into our cabin....

When they entered was exactly the time the guinea guy was slashing the throat of the chicken, the water is boiling and we are waiting for the meat..

Immidiately they got a sign of the slaughtering, the female police office fell down and fainted.. ambulance was called in..

The male officer questioned us but admitted the case as one of ignorance as he believes in Africa we go about catching fowl anyhow to kill and eat.. he imported us to stop the habbit, that WalMart sell already slaughtered foul.. that his patner has never seek a foul or any animal being slaughtered live.. so sh couldn't take it ND it will have a long psychological effects on her..

See, there are ppl we know as butchers, not everyone should handle killing... Knife to the throat is not what kids should be exposed to.. it's really appalling hearing u guyz support such because according to u ppl's argument, ur parents did it.

Now who told u guys that all ur parents training proceedures are correct?

SMH. You grew up watching animals get slaughtered. How come you never picked up a knife to “teach your bro or sis a lesson?”

We4all:
I grew up watching people kill animals, and I always felt pity for them but will still eat the meat because of my love for meat.

However, I don't think it's a good idea to kill animals in front of kids. Children are wired differently, and there is no limit to what they can do. An evil child may pick up a knife one day just to teach his baby sis or bro a lesson. If you know what I mean.

If the animal is not killed, how will it get into your stomach? Gathering to see the animal getting killed was a wonderful experience during my childhood. I will not deny my lineage the opportunity.

bigpicture001:
.....Growing up, it's is a normal for me. We gather around parents to watch them kill the Christmas animal as we wait for it processing ND eventual cooking and serving in the menu

Now after understanding animal cruelty and also growing human conscience, I, now see such acts as barbaric...

Also grabbing, the fowl by it feathers while on a bike through the long road to the house or on it's legs and placing them upside down

Touch grass. 🥱

Kobojunkie:
They say different strokes for different folks. So, why demean her for not looking your type? Are you or that man there every other person's type?

Everything makes news. Too many bored people online. No wonder touch grass is a common suggestion.

Chilipepper:
Man politely turns down a lady who shot her shot at him on X.

Throw away that rubbish and get a fork.

I don’t understand the video. How does OP know Natasha was the one causing the ruckus? TuFace sef no get sense. He should’ve turned off his phone immediately.

You children on Nairaland will call 80 year olds Gen Z. Research, una no gree.

SultanOfPuna:
No dey marry Gen Z una no dey hear..

If the channel goes, it has gone. Good riddance.

bmd1010:
They can also have mtv on stream, i simply feel one wanna be ceo is feeling big, mtv is a brand, u will b surprise what they call low views

E pain am reach like that? The woman surely killed her market. Her mother will soon come out with “e ma binu. She’s a good girl, to ri olorun. Sàánú mi, e jo.” Blessing’s body is also a BBL. Nollywood women and their BBL competition. Tufia!

If that worked, they would’ve implemented it since. A billion dollar company is behind the channel. With that sort of money, tests are carried out to improve services routinely. People hardly watch TV these days. Everyone streams music and other media. People hardly download anymore. Nobody has time to sit and wait for forty-five minutes for their favourite music video to play. I have many other things to distract myself with. Their business model reached maturity stage. This is the end of an era.

bmd1010:
I see no reason for the shut down, they can simply down size instead, and have a dept solely mtv music just music and nothing else

Good riddance. I assumed it was only MTV Base Naija this would affect. The company made a killing from 1981 to 2005. 2004 thereabout was the shift to reality TV. They lost relevance immediately after.

bmd1010:
MTV kick-started a new era of music and pop culture in 1981, when it went on air for the first time, emblematically playing “Video Killed the Radio Star” as its debut music video.

More than four decades later, the channel, now owned by US media giant, Paramount Skydance, will wind down its international music broadcasting by the end of the year as it struggles to compete with online streaming and social media.

MTV Music, MTV Hits and its 80s and 90s music shows will be shut down in the UK and other European countries in the coming months, sources at Paramount confirmed to AFP.

These music channels will stop broadcasting at the end of the year in France, Germany, Poland, Australia, and Brazil as well, according to various media reports.

It has been declared the “end of an era.”

MTV, launched in 1981, revolutionised global pop culture by becoming the first television channel dedicated entirely to music videos.

Its debut broadcast of “Video Killed the Radio Star” symbolised a shift in how audiences consumed music, giving rise to a new era of visual music storytelling and catapulting artists into global superstardom.

Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, MTV expanded worldwide and shaped youth culture through its music rotation, reality shows, celebrity interviews, and award ceremonies.

The brand later evolved into multiple sub-channels such as MTV Hits, MTV Music, and genre-specific retro channels celebrating music from the 80s and 90s.

However, the rise of YouTube, streaming platforms like Spotify and Apple Music, and short-form video apps such as TikTok drastically reduced the relevance of traditional music television.

Over the past decade, MTV shifted increasingly toward reality programming, while its dedicated music channels struggled with dwindling audiences and declining advertising revenue.

Paramount’s decision to shut down MTV’s remaining international music channels marks the most significant contraction of the network since its founding—signalling the end of linear music TV as global audiences move almost entirely to digital, on-demand formats.

Old rumour.

OlaleyeCast:
Social media users are reacting to a viral clip of music icon 2baba being arrested in the UK following an alleged altercation with his wife, Natasha.

Recall in October that reports made rounds that the singer had gotten into an altercation with his then-pregnant wife and had been arrested.

Addressing it, 2baba denied it, claiming that he failed to show up because he had an urgent medical emergency. He thanked the organisers and fans who attended the event and promised to deliver a splendid performance next time.

It seems the singer was lying as video making rounds online captured the moment 2baba was arrested in London by the UK police after an alleged altercation with Natasha.

In one of the clips, the legendary singer was seen on handcuff with police guiding him into a vehicle. In another, Natasha was seen coming down from a bus as she reminded the singer that she was carrying his child.

Tufia!

ChizzyBuna:
I get Onitsha used banny for sale

Things will remain the same for the next five years. Na Naija we dey.

✨ When the Christmas Lights Come On, Our Voices Must Be Heard ✨

Tonight, Cross River State will switch on the Christmas trees, filling our streets with colour, warmth, and festive excitement. The Christmas lights represent hope, joy, and unity,a moment families and visitors look forward to every year.

But as the lights shine over the city, hundreds of newly employed civil servants remain in deep distress.

These workers were recruited purely on merit, completed all documentation properly, and even opened their current accounts as directed, believing that their salaries would follow immediately. They resumed work the very next day after receiving their appointment letters, as instructed, faithful, hopeful, and ready to serve.

Yet, almost a year later, many have not been paid a single month. Workers recruited at the same time, such as accountants and procurement officers, have been paid already, while others are left behind. This selective salary payment has created frustration, hardship, and emotional exhaustion.

Many now survive on borrowed money just to transport themselves to work. Some struggle to feed their families. Others are emotionally drained, but still show up every day because they believe in the system and in the leadership of Governor Bassey Edet Otu.

Your Excellency, sir:

👉 Please order the immediate payment of our salaries and accumulated arrears.

👉 Please ensure all cadres are treated equally, no worker should be left behind.

Governor Otu is known across the state as a listening leader,a fatherly figure with compassion and fairness. We believe strongly that if this message reaches him clearly, he will act swiftly.

As the Christmas lights brighten Calabar tonight, may they also brighten the lives of the unpaid workers who have endured months of silent suffering.

Let the season of celebration also become a season of justice.

📌 —The Voice for the newly employed Civil servants

They were killed by people of the same skin colour. Nairaland illiterates believe the act was done by Arabs. Those ones are in their country watching these ones’ actions in the news. Their hands are complicit in sending aid and weapons to the militias. Someone else mentioned that the US and Israel also support them. Nothing new. Welcome to life. There must be a reason why these lives are taken. I don’t care to know. Humans have warred since the beginning of time. We will war in the afterlife if it exists.

London used or nothing. I’m all about quality.

Rexymania:
😆😆😆

What about fairly used GF?

…and still comes back around.

MEGAWATCH:
We don't know who you are and why you are concluding this issue like this because she never mentioned the name of her brother here.

But if you are a soldier, just remember tomorrow may be your turn to be treated like this man we are discussing now.


What goes around comes around.


🤐🤐🤐🤐

I require an addition to my harem. How much?

…and he’s here one year later asking what it is. Nairaland na entertainment.

No go hospital. Dey find miracle on Nairaland.

kusemeatakpa:
Please doctor's in the house, how do you call this and what's the cause of it. Possible advice for treatment.

Her brother served his time and was released. He came back into civilian life, drank like a fish and likely rode in secondhand cars. Now, the inevitable has happened. What does she want us to do? I will take his experience as a cautionary tale.

Chucksone:
A Nigerian woman has come forward with a troubling story about how her elder brother, who happens to be a soldier in the Nigeria Army and together with his colleagues were accused and of confronting their commander and were sentenced to death by hanging.

And after being detained in an underground prison for three years. After years in detention, she says he was eventually released.

However, the family’s relief was short-lived. She said that shortly after regaining his freedom, he died in a strange car accident. The circumstances surrounding his death raised further suspicion when, according to her, authorities embalmed his body without the family’s approval, making it difficult for them to understand what truly happened.

And the brother is said to have behind a wife and two kids, and the military never cared for them, they do not care for their fallen heroes wives. Talk more of someone that served in the sambisa forest.

Her story, now circulating on social media, has triggered discussions about the challenges faced by military personnel, welfare concerns, and the need for transparency in internal investigations.

I would’ve posted a comment, but I do not have the time to argue world politics against JSS 3 boys who’re yet to complete their school assignments.

There is a reason why men like him are preferably executed. His type didn’t start in modern times. Any time you have people ruling, there will always be opponents using speech as their major weapon. He built followers in Kuje prison. He will without a doubt build more in Kaduna prison. Humans always want to be led. Men in prison have nothing going for them. Following a man with a cause will give their lives meaning.

I want this type of money in my account.

Nice one. The boy just learn work. He never perfect am.

Bimpe, I will turn you into a housewife.
