They are just pointing anywhere as long as the finger ain't pointing back at them.
Fake agency, my ass...
It's a sharing formula that caused the problem else we wouldn't even know about it. Now imagine how many ones we haven't discovered.
TravelRe: NOA To Spend ₦252 Million Sensitising Nigerian Youths Against Japa by elfico(m): 10:57am On Jun 22
Gerrard59:
Owan should be in Edo state, right?

Rather than the govt discouraging japa, they should promote legal means of japa and advise our people how to behave when outside the country. India ALWAYS does its best to include human migration/skilled visas in every trade deal it negotiates with other countries. How many jobs you wan create for the teeming population? So, send them out there so they send remittances. Admit enough students into medical schools and fast-track agreements with countries where there is a dearth of medical professionals. Barbados gets nurses from Ghana and soon from Kenya. 1 Barbadian dollar = 50 US cents. Barbados is 90% black.
Indians did this with Tech in the 90s and early 2000's; now major tech companies are headed by Indians.
PoliticsRe: Water Tank By Ayra Starr Vs Borehole By Peter Obi by elfico(m): 12:17pm On May 23
I am not a fan of Peter Obi (never mind APC people), but how is this his responsibility?

Is Peter Obi the governor of that state? Or is he the Senator, HoR member of that community?

Trying to shame someone who is solving a real need is quite low, even if you are their opposition.

As my friend will say: "Them dash you money, you dey count am. You go tell them say e no complete?".

Hold your leaders accountable!!!!!!!!!!!!
CareerRe: Nigerian Amputee Lady Loses Remote Job On Her First Day Over Poor Network by elfico(m): 9:46am On Apr 29
DesireV:
This almost happened to me last year.

So, December last year, I got shortlisted for an interview for an overseas job.
I had to drive to the best network area. Waited well before the time.

Interview started, they were asking just what I know. Then one of my cousins who hasn't called me for years started calling. The more I ended the call, the more she called, disrupting my mobile network. I quickly picked it. She said she just wanted to say hi. At this hour and minute? cry
She hasn't called me again since then.

I apologized to the panel that it was my network and that it was quite unusual bla bla. They understood and we continued the interview.

Minutes into it again, network completely disappeared. No coverage at all. Ha! I drove around a bit and it reappeared and I reconnected. We continued.

Few minutes into it again, it disappeared. Now, I was sweating. After a while, it reappeared and they asked few more questions, I asked mine, and interview was over.

I was convinced the job was gone but days later, I received a contract. Everyone I knew who interviewed for it wasn't picked. It was like a miracle.

Nigeria system is almost built to frustrate everything. cheesy cheesy
A simple trick.
If you are using a 4G phone, and your phone allows you to set your network to "4G Only" or "5G Only", you should set it to "4G Only" or "5G Only" if you don't want calls to interrupt your network.

Downside is if you lose network, no auto-switch to 3G
Foreign AffairsRe: Human Rights Groups Accuse Hamas Of Sexually Exploiting Gaza Women by elfico(m): 1:48pm On Apr 20
We all know which group was caught on camera raping Palestinian prisoners.

After which their Army's Legal Counsel resigned and was prosecuted for leaking the video.

And the perpetrators were honored on national TV, defended by their government ministers and later reinstated.

Every accusation is a confession #hasbara_trolls

Treats Nigerian fans like rubbish.
Insults and derides the fans who go to watch his concerts.

Cancelled abroad due to the same bad behaviour, and has started forming a charity.

Hope this is a lesson to Nigerians, don't let Celebrities or Politicians treat you with disdain. Cancel the f*ck out of them.
Don't stream their song or movies, don't vote for them in elections. Power belongs to you.

PoliticsRe: Nnamdi Kanu Moved To Sokoto Prison by elfico(m): 4:56pm On Nov 21, 2025
You don't even have to support Biafra to see that people are treated differently in this country. Why can a set of terrorists be 'rehabiliated and absolved' into the army and another set is given life imprisonment.

Law must apply equally else we risk running in circles.

PoliticsRe: Provide Social Safety Net For Nigerians, Okonjo-Iweala Tells Tinubu by elfico(m): 1:48pm On Aug 16, 2025
aswani:
If you meantbthe UK's NHS, it is impractical over here, very.

Remember NHS was started when most oyinbo people gave birth to two or three kids max.

If we are to he honest, the influx of Asians in the UK with their 5 or 6 children per family plus them marrying their cousins and of course undefunding, has brought the NHS to its knees.

Imagine NHS in a Nigeria where the average couple are having 6 kids per family and then add the attendant corruption involved, it will not work.
True that.
But it can be adapted. NHIS allows up to 4 dependants only I think. This can be the incentive for people who give birth to lot of children. E.g, we cover the healthcare for you children as along as you have 4 or less. If you cross that threshold you are responsible for all your children.


Population reduction has always been a touchy subject from ethno-religious and political perspective.
PoliticsRe: Provide Social Safety Net For Nigerians, Okonjo-Iweala Tells Tinubu by elfico(m): 12:17pm On Aug 16, 2025
Safety nets are really great.

A universal healthcare like NIS would go a very long way to help the poor and vulnerable.

No sure about House of Gaa transporting users to 18th century old Oyo Empire.
The storyline may have been on point, but the the costumes didn't look like it.
Not to mention the synchronized dancing and action sequence makes it look like watching some Greek or Roman inspired movie.

Hope the war ends soon.

shoodboi2:
It is a war crime when Iran strikes an Israeli hospital. But it is not a war crime when Israel does same to Iran. Israel bombed an Iranian hospital two days ago. This is Iran retaliating.
Nairaland has been taken over by Zionist bots, especially the OP. Only Israeli propaganda makes it to the front-page. It's so disappointing.

A good idea would be to partner with the religious organisations if they are open to it.
The clerics will first need to understand and accept that not everything is a spiritual problem though. Tough sell nonetheless
