I do that rubber band stuff. I never knew it existed already. Maybe I read it somewhere a long time ago

I pity these guys. They still posted the evidence online by themselves. Sorry for the next 5 to 15 years of your lives.

Op, its Chief Dr. Where can I sign condolence rregister in Benin? Does DAAR have an office in town?

I remember when one ait station got burnt. Staff wey sober and on their knees crying. This man just walked to inspect the damage as if fire outbreak is a normal thing. Sir, mohia.

They also pay a higher tax rate than Nigeria for the funding for subsides.

Because those economies depend on tax to fund state coffers. Nigeria depends on natural resources. Dubai even pays their citizen monthly subsidy to encourage them to work, this is different from their salary. Our NYSC is based purely on subsidy. Our education system especially public primary and secondary schools are subsidized. Even if it's not called a subsidy, there are so many schemes, agencies and programs various governments emback on to make things easy for their citizens.

There is nothing wrong with subsidizing a good or service. It's the corruption around it that makes it a burden on government. Every country in the world subsidizes health care, education, agriculture, technologies, industries or others. No be only Nigerian government dey pay subsidy.

After all said and done, please compare him to El rufai's son.

I thought its president portrait first, then governor, then CEO/head of agency/DG

...the sugar in a plate of semo,amala, akpu, pounded yam, etc. Will amount to about a box of cube sugars. The irony here is that the glucose and other monosaccharides in these drinks are a form of carbohydrates just like the disaccharides in complex sugars like sucrose (normal sugar)
.
Although all carbohydrates are reduced to glucose and consequently glycogen which are stored in the liver in complex metabolism reactions in the body, you cannot exactly compare these simple sugars to normal sugars.
.
And ironically, the malt we so much prefer to soda drinks contain Maltose which are complex sugars. A molecule of maltose can comparatively yield two molecules of monosaccharides in these soda drinks.
.
My point is that starch and carbohydrates like corn syrups and the foods I mentioned up there are much worse than these drinks. And although their intake should be controlled...it would be a futile endeavour if you keep supplementing them with excess starchy foods.
.
Malt is not a saviour either.

Of akpu, Amala, wheat, Garri, semo, pounded yam, poundo, etc., Which has the least sugar content.

The two companies I have worked with in Benin actually left warri for Benin, their loss, my gain. I heard communities used to have staff slots that are paid monthly but they never work in the company, they just collect salaries.

Congrats to her...
But this TeddyA talk is food for thought... 🤔

Every human being seeks attention and validation. We gravitate towards that which makes us feel good, happy, valued, appreciated, recognized, fulfilled and acknowledged. If they feel driving long distance will give them any of these feelings, allow them enjoy it.

These obstacles don't only make goods more expensive, but also causes scarcity and consumer exploitation.

Cuntface:
I don't know what's wrong with these people, no privacy at all!!
I just paid for this car and they're shipping it to Nigeria currently, I don't understand why someone should make the video before me and even posted it here

Very funny. Just get angry and buy another one na

Request for mum to come over, only him have his reasons why he doesn't want a house help

This is the 21st century. You should be able to tell your wife your fears and concerns about not wanting house helps. If, for example, it's based on lack of trust, she can look for someone to clean and she takes care of the kids herself. There are always other options to every situation. If she dies tomorrow, won't someone else look after the kids?

Hope this headache is not from bending down to do chores. Have you being tilting your head down while you work? Even at 3 months after giving birth, you have to be very careful about it.

My question be say, why these police brutality no dey happen for North? Do you know why it doesn't happen in the North
Ok oooooo, make we dey observe sha because one day na one day.

I don talk am before and I go talk am again, "Oga instead of you to go do yahoo, go and learn programming and thank me later"

Ok

How much are you paying Sahara reporters staff as minimum wage?

If it were possible, Nigeria will postpone Christmas and New Year.

When we do not plan but do everything on fire brigade approach, this is what we get. When the set time arrives, we find out we are not prepared.

What is wrong with this conversation? A son seeking prayers and encouragement from his spiritual father? Did they mention any form of bribery, destruction and thuggery like APC did in public? I can clearly see the desperation to perform your 30k duties (hope they have inreased it to 50k as you all requested)

When will Edo state LP start selling forms, so I can start gathering my N15m. When I told my people I will be called your excellency someday, they thought I was talking about being first lady. Why be 1st lady, when I can be Governor,?

I thought you guys said se.un sacked lala? I told you lala will sack se.un, not the other way round.

Igbos are proud people, which is good, but some are turning that pride to arrogance. I was really disappointed with the Lagos is no man's land mantra. As an edolite it hurt me to hear someone tell my yoruba brother that because you let me into your home, and I pay rent, I now own your house. I was really sad and heart broken.

Hambivert:
In football camps, these praise and worship songs are not primarily intended for religious purpose. They are majorly sang for gyration..

I wonder how people didn't get this and saying no God will give them victory. It's also about reminiscing about the good old days because they grew up in christian homes and churches but are based abroad where they don't get this anymore.

oz4real83:
Is it not in Nigeria that somebody in one northern state titled his complimentary card as "inlaw to the governor"?, is it not also in Benin city that somebody captioned her vehicle "Tony kabaka sister"?😂😂

Are you serious? This is too funny?

So as country hard reach, they have not still increased that 30k to at least 50k,even with all these elections propaganda for the past 3 months? If you are not disappointed at that measley money, I am ashamed FOR all you 30k mercenaries. By the way,how many months stipends are they owing you now? Better join the ikorodu APC women to protest an increase. Nigerians always belittle small businesses, that gala seller can make that 30k profit in a week. Side hustle kor, back hustle ni.

SmartPolician:
The problem most of us have is that we don't want to understand that CBN wants us to go cashless. For God's sake, that policy was introduced in 2012 but nobody took the bank seriously until they kicked off the full implementation. They even reduced our withdrawal limits for the same reason.

If anyone still thinks that cash will be everywhere like it used to be, the person is living in a cloud cuckoo land because it's never going to happen. Everyone should embrace the e-channels. We need to stop this obsession with carrying cash about.

Totally agree. What we should be clamouring for now is faster mobile and online transactions and little transfer/ pos charges. If kuda can charge N10 per transfer, why are commerical banks charging between N10 to N56? With N4 alerts and N50 stamp duty?

CR7 the 2nd Goat

Where all of una dey get these phone numbers? I don dey find the numbers of all the 24 governors elect since yesterday to congratulate them, till now, I never see one single number to call.

Igbos should also mind this Lagos is no man's land mantra. I am Edo but by geographical location alone, Lagos is surrounded by Yoruba states. The main language apart from English is Yoruba. How then is it a no man's land? You can lay claim to the fact that Igbos pay taxes and contribute economically not telling someone his house is now yours because you have being a tenant there for over 50 years. It's so wrong. Yorubas hold so many political positions in the UK, but you will never hear them call uk a no man's land.

I'm a man raising 3kids alone, it's not easy at all

Added;
For those asking, I'm not a divorcee, I'm widowed, I lost my wife 2yrs ago, leaving me with a girl and 2 boys and they are living with me, not leaving my kids with anyone.

Those asking for my account to support me, I really appreciate you all, 8089967066, opay.

Please start to send them on errands and house chores as early as you can, except when it comes to cooking and using the generator. If they sweep and it's not clean enough, correct them but don't do it, let them make the correction themselves. I am widowed too. I taught my kids to do house work as early as 4 years old even when my husband was alive. Now they are in seconary school. Once I come home now, I bath and rest while they cook, sweep, wash dishes and clothes, clear the compound, wash the car and sometimes go to the market.
