Someone woke up one morning and this is the best they can do. What does "lagos" mean in Portuguese?

There's new Mexico in US, why not go ask them the same question as well as other places named after other countries? What's the obsession with Lagos?

Dopeboy8701:
They are in serious trouble, I hope their financial crimes commission are up to the task

Negativity as usual.

I pity those around you. They'll sha be wondering where the bad luck is coming from not knowing only you is carrying the negative energy of a dozen people.

okosodo:
It will still fall, when tinubu starts moving the looted funds

Nigeria will work for those of us that still believe in it. It's not about the presidency or governors, it's about the mindset of the people. And with people like you, God will shame you.

I only hope you can handle the heartbreak when that time comes.

It's not up to the school to refute, it's up to them to conduct an independent investigation and make the result public.

Anything short of that is them covering up for whoever is involved.

givedemwotowoto:
Na lie. When a sitting President has failed to do his job of prosecuting criminals and bringing lasting peace and security, it's important that as Presidential candidate, you meet with relevant individuals necessary to bring peace and move the country forward

OK!

When they say people lack ideology and integrity, this is a clear example. And all for what, selfish ambition.

It is well.

Lol...

Dude should just start campaigning on comedy central.

Thereedemer:
Brother i promise you if you do me data ill subscribe and comment in all your channels.

Una don carry this Twitter nonsense come nairaland.

Houseofglam7:
Gone are the days when old age was synonymous with wisdom.
🤦🏽‍♀️

He's not wise because of what he said or because he does not align with your political views?

Lol.. It's idiots like him that will believe this.

Until we start celebrating the right people, there's more of this in stock for us.

YoshiMaster:
One again, it seems some Nigerians are ready to bury any sign of progress.

Here we are, once again, diminishing the accomplishments of an MIT graduate.

MIT, known as the top school in the world?

Once again, the prefer Nepa certificates and people that graduated before their school was founded.

What a people.

You're an absolute illiterate.

The statement definitely has a context. You got rid of the context and are here having mental spasms.

What's the definition of prostitution? Has Gbadebo been jumping from one party to the other? So what does MIT have to do with the description?

I hate people that choose to twist things to create drama, it's annoying. If your brain can't comprehend it, then shut the hell up.

Diminish achievement, blah blah blah on top description. No one said anything about his leadership ability or intellect. Omo, I shake head for you.

Saao:
the hostage that hamas video them digging their own grave? The hostage hamas refused to release and you want them to seat back and do nothing about her citizens? Hamas were the first attackers but Muslims world didn't condemn them even UN didn't as well. One thing is certain, Israeli dont care about any nonsense resolution but UN. I'm very sure you're from the northern Nigeria, focus on the massacre by Fulanis and pampered by the government because of politics

Hamas were the first attackers? Lol.

That tells me all I need to know about you and your understanding of the whole issue. Many of you think all these started last year and I'll never engage your type. All I'll tell you is that it's going to come full circle eventually.

Shipping is actually done by weight and not space taken so I'll take this with a pinch of salt.

Nigerians are the worst people to lead.

They think governance is like cooking rice. There's no government that doesn't do trial and error, every economy is unique and there's no standard way 5o approach things. What makes a good government is realizing the shortcomings of the trial and adjusting it or stopping it altogether. You think the whole reciprocal tarrif by Trump is a thought out policy and not knee jerk approach? Lol.

A lot of you up there need to first cleanse your minds of negativity and hatred, it's starting to seriously make you sound stupid. Sometimes you criticize things and I'll be waiting for a sensible analysis of the criticism but no. You only criticize for criticism sake. That's a sign of very low intelligence.

PS: you can hate me all you want, doesn't change the fact that majority of you are just hateful people. Even if the government gets everything right, your hatred won't let you see it as long as you are not a backdoor beneficiary. Nigeria is a developing country, you can get everything right but you can never get human behavior right. Even Dangote had to stop certain programs because people were abusing it. What more the government of a country? You don't want out of the box ideas but you want miraculous changes, dey play.

princeade86:
Refute every time. Nigeria no stable at all in term of leadership

FTC on Tuesday morning. God bless Nigerians

What's the correlation?

You rushed to reply and never bothered to read what you're replying to. That doesn't paint a picture of you being intelligent.

It's people that are tackling you I blame...

From the initial post, it's obvious you need our prayers. Get well soon.

nairalanda1:
In case you are interested, read the works of the Russian writer Lankov. That's where i get my best information on the dprk. He spent time there.

Spending time there isn't the point. People claimed to spend time in Libya and demonized Ghadaffi till they successfully started a rebellion and got him killed.

There's a reason most of these countries are trying as much as possible to hide their affairs from the world, especially the west. Once you have something they want and you don't give them access to it, they don't care the cost to demonize you so invading you looks like they are saving you.

Why are they so obsessed with North Korea? There are other countries that are not open to the world maybe not as strictly as NK but no one has any problem with them, you know why? Because they have nothing that the west wants. If NK gives up it's nuclear program today, you'll suddenly stop hearing about them. Even if Kim kills the whole country in a day, the west won't be bothered. But as long as he doesn't give them access to his nuclear program, the he's the most evil person in the world.

Is that not the same tactics used in Iraq? Now even the soldiers that fought in Iraq admit they had no idea what they were fighting for. After killing thousands and destabilizing a whole country. It's crazy.

Femiwilli:
I beg free this guy.

if tinubu can, why not him?

FTC oh

It's profitable to have sense and also know how to use it.

Lol... This overrated, overpriced chinco company.

You'll get a better deal for a generic speaker on AliExpress.

nairalanda1:
I really wish you were right, but unfortunately, we got a lot of evidence, testimonies, etc that prove you are wrong

Just because a country says down USA does not mean it can't be oppressive.

What evidence do you have? The evidence they told you? Or the people they claimed escaped from north Korea? As long as you're not a north Korean with first hand information, you have no evidence.

Ajoray:
I don't understand you. So it's wide screen now that's causing all the grammar
If you're not interested, you could have just ignored

You'll be fine.

MyExpression:
Everyone is busy now...most people don't have control of their time anymore.

Nah... Everyone was busy back then too. Even more busy than now because there was no access to a lot of things back then that we have access to now.

People just don't value relationships anymore. Everything is transactional now, and that's what's destroying things. The value system has been deeply eroded.

Wait... You went to dig up a crime that happened in 2019 just to start a tribal war and probably tackle Dabiri? Really?

Lol. He even said it's the most heinous crime by a Nigerian in diaspora after Muttalab's. I give up mehn.

Sonnobax15:

Wahala......

TBH, between house agents and caterers,I don't know which one will be the first to get the first slot of hell fire .

Nonsense like this wouldn't have happened if they had cooked their food by themselves....But since everybody wanna be forming woke by employing the services of caterers,such nonsense will continue to happen.

Some caterers are indeed evil......if they aren't hiding food, they're either stealing or hoarding food.....The worst part is that they usually charge high ,and render low and stupid services .

Las las,no wahala cha....make Dem gather children for the area wey no get food to eat,make Dem share the food for dem . Case closed...

We do not realize it yet but this is part of what is breaking up the extended family.

When I was younger, everyone gets to the celebrant's house or a designated place days before so they can get ingredients and cook and do other things. This was not just about cooking, it was a time to bond as well. You all sleep in the same place, hear each other's stories and get to know those you didn't know before. You get on each other's nerves, settle scores, laugh, eat and do other things as a unit. I hate going to events but I'll definitely be there for the preparation and running around. It's sad those things are gradually dying out.

Ajoray:
I dey hawk my market abeg bo vex
The device is still available for sale

Exactly my point...

Once there's a hint of deception or exaggeration, people will lose interest because if you can embellish something so clearly obvious, what else are you not being truthful about?

Keep it simple, anyone interested will definitely reach out.

Lol...

2003 and 2025, are we dealing with the same economic realities?

Until the government actively starts checking these guys, these things won't stop.

You shouldn't be able to claim things like this until it has been independently verified.

E say wide screen... If the screen is any narrower, it'll be a phone. Lol

Wetin make iPad con be? Extra wide screen?

I don't know the details but I think this is a step in the right direction except there's an ulterior motive behind it. Not like religion has done us any good by the way.

Either that or everyone should be fully ready to bear the consequences of using their churches/mosques to spread terrorism, hate and dissent.

Lol...

It's a shame.

Dude still looks confused!

Asides that, the only difference is that he aged which every other person did as well. So what's the point of the comparison?

immortalcrown:
Two wrongs do not make a right.

Opposing endsars protest is wrong.

Dying from sex is shameful.

But can't the demise be reported without a reference to the deceased's opinion about endsars protest? Is the protest the reason the person died?

It goes to show you how devilishly petty people are.

They go through their days hoping evil will befall those that don't hold the same opinion as them so they can use it to mock them. If he wasn't against endsars protest, I'm sure they won't even mention his death at all.

Shame!
