MarkNsukkaBread:
When it gets to your turn you can go and kneel down to beg your son because you want to appear unAfrican!

Decorum you man or girl. I asked a question and you have no answers why not hush 🤫?

Why is it that the younger ones are always required to beg for forgiveness in African societies especially Nigeria, even when it is the adult that did the wrong? I don't know what happened exactly. But I am asking cause this right here brought about some thoughts. I wish them healing.

I do not think there is any candidate who doesnt mean well. However, we cannot insulate plans from reality of oyr nation.

Nigeria needs to go through a hard reset. We cannot afford subsidy. I do agree that something can be done to ameloriate pains. Nigeria used to have vision 2010, MDGs, Vision 2020 and so on. Right now, there is view without sion.

I suggest the opposition comes up with a comprehensive plan for Nigerians to study.

Regarding stolen funds, some of the recovered funds are funding student loans. Remember an ADC aspirant in Kebbi was indicted for acquiring properties and attempting to fleece the country in a settlement deal that backfired. There is also the problem of capital flight, for example, AA was said to have paid a certain von Batten $1.2million for lobbying. Von Batten is blaming Tinubu over his inability to undermine Tinubu as part of his lobbying deal.

Great! IBB also told the country to enjoy the pains for SAP. After so many years now, I doubt of there are any benefits we could ascribe to SAP.
The opposition should come up with plans like you wrote. No need for rigmarole.

emkz:
Likely.

I do not know much about schooling, but I hear it is free in France, which makes funding strenous. Yet, Atiku's minions complain of high fees in our universities. Making Nigerian universities free or cheap will be an economic hara-kiri as we cannot afford it. Back to France, the prolonged Russian-Ukraine war and Iran-US-Israel war has caused global shocks on energy. I see there are protests in Italy and Albania too. I foresee more protests in Europe as citizens express frustrations. The common denominator for protests is hardship.

France is a case of how generous subsidies and welfare can lead to economic doom and chaos. They cannot enter any country and depose their leader and seize resources. Such things were possible in the past. But it leads to instability.

So yes, the free money from the Sahel and the cancellation of the submarine contract by Australia may have exposed France's Archilles' heel.

I get you. I have been a supporter of AA for decades. But I doubt a university owner would want to make other public Unis less than it is as per fees etc. That doesn't mean nothing can't be done about the current state after all what do Nigerians gain from their country? I am a benefactor of France's welfare system some years back. It is not only the schooling but other areas of human life. AA has had great manifesto for years now. If such could be implemented by any government by 50-60% Nigeria will be on her way to greatness. Secondly, funds are wasted and stolen in Nigeria, if such be redirected don't you think the people can get more than what they are getting now?

emkz:
Atiku Abubakar,

This is an indication that no country is insulated from global economic shocks. France is said to have a generous welfare which has caused their public debt to exceed $4trillion. They are doing budget cuts to find money to plug into other areas.

In Nigeria, we had a subs

Yes, it is also because they are no longer getting some "free money" from some countries in the Sahel. They have Ukraine to help on the other hand and so on. But the story about the schooling is crazy. Just read about it.

There is something about looting in protests. Sometimes it is because of insurance payments. So a person leading the looters could be owners of the shop or related. There is also the other aspect of trying to give a bad name to the protest. I remebter some nationalist who went straight to attacking shops during the Floyd protests in the US, they had to be restrained. They wanted to make it a bad name/label black people. There is alos the aspect of people just wanting to have fun and get as much from the protest. One cannot bring it to down to a particular reason.
Anyways it appears France is suffering from her loss of grips on African countries like Niger and Burkina Faso.

callmeDDD:
See them up there. He resigned in may, for a better job, was invited to submit companies documents with him which made them too search his residence and nothing from the company was found and eventually released. All these within may/June. He left the country and then 4 months after he had an accident in his home country. They are now blaming dangote for his death? Because they didn't understand how he got accident in his own country after resignation months ago. Blaming depression and mental torture.
They didn't read the event but just jumped into conclusions.

Do you think that it is everyone that can handle the kind of oppression that occurs in Nigeria? Did also read about his family's situation? His wife, kids? Do you know what cause and effect is?

marvelos1:
Hello, everyone Im at a cross road deciding which any of the both countries to chose to migrate to, I'm currently based in the middle east.. but I got an offering to chose where to go live and work all travel expenses cover by my sponsor. Those with experience on which is better for work wise and better pay should should advice me please..

The pay in Poland is not so high. But it is stable country with ok amenities. You would have access to a large part of Europe. After a while you should get your citizenship and decide your future. You could even change jobs again at anytime and relocate to another country. Is it Warsaw? Gdansk? Or? I used to go down there to work . But my employment was in another country with a branch in Poland.
PS: If you are a single guy then the polish woman are awesome.

A simple check on who owns the news outlet will tell you about the Bias in the report.

What happened to all the sanctions ?

Sanctions are only written on paper.

Russia the only self sufficient nation on earth.

Sanctions Russia and the whole Europe would feel it.

I heard it cost to enforce sanctions because you have to pay those companies a certain margin(would have been profit).

MrPresident1:
Very interesting statement from Zelensky, especially on the relationship between America and the Kurds (who are the Medes of the Bible)

Painful betrayal.

Very interesting statement.

Interesting

A Kurd told me Abraham was from them.

Oh!May he rest in power.
I played his song a lot September, it was on repeat especially "Rock me baby"

Meet the big cat family 🐾

🦁 Lion: The most social of the big cats. Lions live in prides, forming strong family groups where females often cooperate to hunt and raise cubs.

🐅 Tiger: Every tiger has its own stripe pattern, as unique as a fingerprint. :-XThose markings are even visible on the skin beneath the fur.

🐆 Jaguar: Built with an exceptionally powerful bite, jaguars can crush through tough shells and bones that many other predators cannot.

🐾 Puma: Also called a cougar or mountain lion, this adaptable feline is known for its incredible jumping ability and huge geographical range.

🐆 Leopard: Strong, agile and incredibly discreet, leopards are capable of carrying heavy prey into trees to protect it from other animals.

❄️ Snow Leopard: Its long, thick tail helps with balance on steep mountain terrain and can also be wrapped around the body for extra warmth.

🖤 Black Panther: Black panthers are not a separate species. The name usually refers to melanistic leopards or jaguars whose dark coats can still reveal faint rosette patterns.

🐆 Cheetah: The fastest land animal can reach incredible speeds over short distances. Its semi non-retractable claws provide extra grip while running.

Big cats may belong to the same broad family, but each species has developed very different adaptations to survive in its environment. 🐾

Majestic! I am yet to see a Cheetah and the snow leopard.

JuanDeDios:
You think ADD is caused by a lack of parental love?

I read about and saw a vidoe on it a long time ago. It is not scientific that was why I wrote that it is not proven. But my observation around me shows that there is a link between it and lack of (a) parental love. It becomes a survival behavioural pattern.

FSBoperator:
You have a personality disorder and not a biologically induced state .

Yes, severe autism is biological due to brain hormone imbalance and chemistry we don't really understand but your case is just one of child hood trauma and shock.

Psychiatry is by far the fakest science out there with 90% of whatever bs papers and diagnosis being just made up bs.

You are presenting more of childhood trauma from the shock of losing your mum and material comfort you had .

What of your dad?

Normally, children raised by a single mother without a fatherly figure show this same behavioural traits .

It takes two to raise a child and a man's role is very vital especially for a male child.

Even in children raised in a two parent home but with, an absentee father who refuses to exert firm but loving guidance, also display such traits.

Autism by the way is the very opposite of what you are describing.

Autistic sufferers display extreme compulsive obsessive syndrome and can not multitask and have tunnel concentration which makes them have very good memories and recollection abilities.

The only problem is that they obsesses over trivial issues


I read of an autistic guy who could recall the weather forecast for every day back to when he was a child in the 70s.

Autists are also great at trivial problem solving which makes them extreme geniuses in maths, computer programming , chess and other abstract sciences.

You my friend are not autistic but rather suffering from childhood trauma.

Good points. It could also be ADD which can be due to lack of love from one parent ( Not a proven thing though).
I think medical consultation should be considered my the fellow.
I also suggest deep mediation , physical exercising and herbs to help desk with some of the symptoms.

I suffer from low self esteem before I discovered God. I will want you to try and discover God. If you know how much God loves you. You will not be talking down on yourself. Try to get a Christian book and begin to read it so that you can discover the power of God.

Were or are you dealing with ADHD?

the same way the in July when I visited. I saw suffering all over. When I got back to base and people asked how my trip went. The first thing that always came out of my mouth was, there's suffering in Nigeria. How sad!

My Snake Plant of six (6)  years Surprised me by Blooming in August.
‎
‎In 2020, when my neighbor moved out of their house, they couldn't carry all their plants along, so they trashed most of them. Of the plants they trashed, I rescued a Snake Plant.
‎
‎I kept this snake plant right in front of my Port Harcourt home (outdoors). It survived because of the hardy nature and expanded rapidly. From that single snake plant, I was able to generate new snake plants.
‎
‎As the snake plants became bigger, I repotted them into perforated food-grade paint buckets to enable air circulation within the plants.
‎
‎By late July to Early August 2026, Port Harcourt experienced an extreme of weather. Some days had high sunshine while some day had massive rainfall.
‎
‎Note that Snake plants are very resistant and low-maintenance houseplants and so I paid little attention to them.
‎
‎On a Sunday Morning of mid August, I pulled my window curtains and behold I found this massive flower stalk so long and ciliated like the leafs of a Sundew. I knew something interesting was going on so I started filming the YouTube video "Why Is My Snake Plant Blooming? (What To Do & When To Cut Stalk)"
‎
‎I monitored the snake plant flower closely to see if the flowers would get pollinated or if seed would be formed. Unfortunately none of that happened.
‎The snake plant blossomed to it's peak by 2 weeks. After two 2 weeks, the petals began to wither.
‎
‎When my snakeplant bloomed, it had no distinct smell like it's often hyped.
‎
‎After about 3 weeks, the petals had all fallen off and so I decided to cut off the stalk that was left (attached to the plant) at the base. I did this to enable the plant localize nutrients on leaf growth.
‎
‎By that time the plant had already exchanged useful energy for the flowers so I had to step in.
‎
‎After cutting the stalk at the point of attachment to the parent plant, the snake plant was back to its original state. I watered and cared for it regularly and it didn't die. Some actually believe that a flowering snakeplant means that the plant is dieing but that ain't true.
‎
‎It was my first time having a blooming snake plant and I was happy to have it.
‎
‎
‎

Wow! I never knew it blossom like it is in the picture. I have a couple at home..I have had them for at least 4 years now. Because what you displayed here I am going to change their pot to a bigger one. Who knows what's gonna happen then?! 😊

Dear Rotimi Amaechi,

You told the whole world that you failed your own mother. If as a speaker (8 years), governor (8 years), minister (8 years), Peter Odilli's PA (3 years), political career (39 years since 1987), you still could not do something as simple as health insurance for your own mother and allowed her kpai and came to report yourself to the public, please tell us how you intend to ensure Nigerians would be well taken care of since you could not even take care of your own mother.

Did you Watch the video? Did you hear say he was joking because there are people really suffering etc?

rossipki:
We used to hear about the nefarious activities of these Fulani herdsmen almost every single day, in the past.

What happened?

Where did they go?

I'm sure they have continued with their atrocities here and there, but it seems to have reduced substantially...

Now you rarely ever hear about them.

Kudos to the FG for suppressing their heinous, demonic activities.

I am suspecting that they have been bribed until after the election. Another belief is that the US "intervention" would have caused some slow down.

jesusjnr2020:
I was actually shocked when I first saw saw the photos of Iranian Christians risking their lives and coming out and boldly declaring for Christ on the streets of Iran, because I knew how dangerous it was for Christians there to openly profess their faith.

It appears to confirm recent reports that the numbers of Iranians who embraced Jesus were exploding beyond measure, even to the millions, hence they could no longer hide it or continue to keep it to themselves, but had to boldly come out and declare that they are for Jesus.

God bless.

It depends on what you mean by professing of faith. There are Christians in Iran. From what I found out years ago they have more freedom than in other places I don't what to write their names here. I have Iranian Christian friends. The late leader of the country visits some Christian homes every Christmas.

QuinQQ:
I honestly wonder how it is possible. Even seasoned actors have to do many takes, forget their lines, etc.
There could be a trick we don't know about. He could be wearing a tiny earpiece or something...

Yeah, if you find our let me know hehehe

QuinQQ:
This proves again how POWERFUL the press is. They can say black is white and people would believe it!
Obviously a totally biased hit piece full of LIES! I watched the speech from begining to end. It was truly a flawless delivery by a true master. And as you can see below, the telepromter wasn't always working.

Did you indicate the year of the speech? What's your key words? A TV station in the US
Claimed he did use a promoter.

QuinQQ:
No, this Trump guy is especially good at this. I mean, the guy be talking like he's just talking with some guys in a bar or something. Just free-flowing, no hesitations or "ehm"s whatsoever

Yeah, remember he was into entertainment for years?

QuinQQ:
I later found out the teleprompter wasn't even working for much of the speech.
I don't know how people like that do it - especially at 80!!



What's with this guy and this "native language" stuff!! Unless you're illiterate, English is practically our native language. Most educated Nigerians can address a crowd better in English than in their native language!
Give credit where credit is due!

Hi, his body language suggested someone reading from a teleprompter. See the screenshot below . It is from guardian UK. Youe earlier belief may need a review.

I think last year's event they deliberately made it impossible for him to use it and he prepared himself for such eventualities this year. However, one thing I know is other parts of the world you have to have the brains to becime a president or prime minister. You can be bad but you can't be a dullard.

QuinQQ:
I wrote that bearing in mind he could be using prompter.
I mean, it was FLAWLESS!
Young as I am I know I'd pause here and there even if I was just reading it!
Also, see below

Interesting. He did great

QuinQQ:
Trump gave very, very, VERY good and comprehensive speech. It was really great, with ZERO mistakes. I listened to all of it. I kept wondering how an 80-year-old can be this flawless!

Ever heard of the teleprompter?
