Imagine killing themselves because of ordinary primary election.

Why are some Nigerians just so desperate

They're not there for you and I. They're there for themselves and that's why they're so desperate. Remember Remi Tinubu who said on a public TV that they're not running for president to make money,.that God had blessed their family already (they always lie using God's name all the time, after stealing what belongs to the masses). If you check what was budgeted for the office of the first lady, you'd scream.

Ondo and assassination na 5 and 6. I doubt the indomie generation knows this fact. I remember ęgbę dęmo and operation wętię ( wet it with petrol) days. I remember the assassination of Fagbamigbe, the owner of fagbamigbe publishers and a notable man called Agbayęwa.

Too bad in the 21st century. Obviously, they don't want Ayedatiwa, which also confirmed the outcome of the election at the primaries being fraudulent as declared by some party loyalists. It was declared inconclusive at some point.

A bad omen for the apc in Ondo where Jegede also holds sway. He really gave late aketi a though time.

NorthernAgender:
We should learn how to mind our business especially when the Matter is not anyway concern us.

But if Edo people wise Enough they supposed to know that both PDP and APC have nothing to offer them.
.vote olumide apata.

B4 nko? Let me burst the bubble of thise who might be thinking the pdp faction would join force with the apc in Edo. Shaibu is a grassroots politician who pulls a lot of crowd. Obaseki na book man. He's not grounded politically.

Shaibu didn't hide his support for Obi last year which may have been the beginning of his feud with Obaseki who pitched his tents with Atiku. Let's watch as the drama unfolds. Akpata all the way

Akpata camp straight . Shaibu really worked for Obi last year in Edo. Maybe that was the beginning of his rift with Obaseki

Lekki Night girls don finally kill this dude for us.

It costs you nothing to spend just 2 minutes of your time to read through the news nah. Stop sounding like this

Tell them. The jaujau president

Tinubuuuul

Well, there's no Landcruiser 70th edition that is 250m, most are below 220m ! The allegations might be false and there's nothing wrong if a DG has official vehicle
I sell Toyota Landcruisers 2023

How much is the prado, the smaller one? If you have the 2022 new, hala me.

Tinubu's government na wee, wee. Same corrupt people. They know themselves

Makunahatata:
2 down, millions to go

Sounds like good news but wait until there's an orchestrated jail break and they're set free.

Nigerian government can't be trusted anymore. An ordinary being can't take to drug business. I don't even know how cocaine looks like, when seen. The cache of drugs found in ikorodu and ajah have been silenced forever

It will become useless. Where are those living over there, ranting that Nigerians are soooo poor. You stormed a mall on a loaned car( maybe he even stole it) only to steal phones that won't be useful to you Smh!

There places I don't like going in new York(Jamaica, bronx) and Los Angeles( inglewood). They can mob you and steal all your body parts

Peakdesign23:
These westerners have gone crazy, so many rubbish now, Netflix is the worst.

watch what you watch. It's that simple. Same applies to what you read. The devil has taken over several places.

You can imagine several sexually explicit videos being sent to your facebook page unsolicited? Once you click and watch, your name has been automatically added to the list of those millions of Facebook members who have watched it.

Any of your friends who views your profile would see that sex video on display automatically and you cannot erase or remove it. It's permanent, except you pull down that profile and register another one. You'd lose existing friends if you do. It's only you who won't see that video again with your new fb profile page but your friends and those who look you up on Facebook will still see the video on the old fb page. Those are the antics of the devil. Anyone who sees the video on display
under your profile will see you as an immoral person. I've deleted reels videos severally, even blocked them on my facebook pages yet, they wouldn't stop coming.

These were the stuffs that Facebook used to see as immoral in the past and block. They don't block them anymore

hopefulLandlord:
Work hard to make your heart desires come to pass. praying is a futile attempt. there's been no single study that points to prayer being useful. Templeton Foundation (a religious group) ran a study and found out prayers are useless

You would have the same success praying to a milk jug as you do praying to god -- the milk jug sometimes answers your prayer the way you want to, sometimes not and sometimes the answer is delayed. See the problem here? If things turn out the way you want them to, you say it was because you prayed. If not, it's because god knows what's best and you didn't pray for the right thing. Or, if it happens 10 years later you say god answered your prayer, it was just delayed. This is nonsense. You would have the exact same effect doing nothing.

SMH for you

Obi, their nightmares

has the road been repaired?

Go there and see. Haba

kelvindj98:
Nigerian politicians are mad. You can pay $750,000 in advance for your kids to enjoy the best education in the country while the kids in your state receive their education in schools that look like shrines.

That's what happens wherever bigotry reigns. Had Faleke been a Muslim, he'd have continued as gubernatorial candidate in a joint ticket after Abubakar Audu's death. Bello had already left the party and joined the pdp after
losing the primary if you remember.

The same applies to Christian-dominated states . They'd vote based on religous beliefs instead of merit. That's why Nigeria is this backward. I wish Audu didn't die. He was such an amazing man

CheapHomes1:
has the ikorodu itokin road been repaired yet?

He has made the road motorable, starting from lucky fiber, downwards, up to adamo junction and beyond.

I don't know how Umahi is doing it but I think he's one of the best men in the Nigeria's political space. He should not have been in the apc. We have them all over. Amaechi joined the wrong party, another good man.
One thing is to be given birth to and another is for you to be rebirthed. Ambode and Fashola are another amazing guys. They're so amazing cos they didn't yield to Tinubu's corrupt instructions. The latter wanted to remove fashola in his 2nd term bid but failed, he now prevailed over ambode.

The puppet who's there now busy shouting here and there acting like a tout . So long as he's doing the bidding of his godfather, be won't be removed .

At the right time, it shall happen.

DeLaRue:
Mr Amaechi is defenestrated politically.

He is keeping low. That's his only choice until Mr Tinubu leaves office.

Nor can he go back to grievance-riven Pdp or join Labour party. No obvious political pathway for him right now.

Even after the current administration goes, I don't see a way back to the political heights he reached previously. Highly unlikely under APC because of the way he reacted after losing Apc primary, and his refusal to accept or acknowledge the President.

Things like that are not easily forgotten in politics. He is now inconsequential.

Dey play. He's cooking something underground. You'd hear from him and Elrufai when the time is ripe. That's an espo for you, by the way. He's not just quiet for nothing

Lol. Make she apply to Guinness world record as the most stretched-out tongue. I'm sure she'd win. Anyone who knows her should advise her.

Fearyourcreator:
I don't get you

Ooh, sorry. I was thinking you said I was bragging on my point, not knowing you're on same page with me. Don't mind them. They pay for the house they claim they bought for their entire life. That's why most of them don't come home. They're tied to the mortgage and nothing is left to buy air ticket. You can dash people 50k here without blinking an eye but they can't part with one dollar.

Allisgud:
a #10m millionaire here is a poor man over their

Cos standard of living isn't same. What the 10m man would do with that money here would not do anything over there. We pay less taxes here, pay cheap accommodation fee on much better facilities here than they do over there. Check out a 2 bed apartment price in Ikeja yearly. That's what they pay for rent monthly over there.

Na obi cos am. See as they'd shift goal post and be talking of how much obi took as loan when he was Anambra governor.

These people messed everything up with propaganda. Nigeria isn't the largest economy in Africa anymore

SIRTee15:
Oga rest, Only 13,000 new cars were sold last year in naija.
That's how depressing the new market is in naija.
South Africa sold 300,000 new cars, Morocco - 140,000 while egypt- 130,000.
That's why no car manufacturer is building anything in naija. Its also the reason imnoson and other domestic car assembly will struggle to breakthrough or become competitive enough to take on global car manufacturers.
Without car loan, no country can have a viable car manufacturing sector.

And don't make it look like Nigerians are rich enough to afford to pay for new car in full. They don't - Nigerians are poor, that's why only 13k new cars were sold last year.
Note- I mentioned new cars and not used or tokunbo.
So I really don't understand the pojnt of your bragging.

https://www.focus2move.com/nigerian-cars-market/

You're not getting my point. The SA you mentioned, they didn't buy them outrightly, it's on loan. Even students aren't left out over there. There are people here too who can embrace a car loan option but aren't doing so. Apart from the fact that people don't like anything debt, our system isn't made for that yet. Maybe with government orientation on people, those who would prefer to take a loan would embrace that. I remember when I was telling someone about an atm in Nigeria in the 90s. He said thieves would take the money away, that we can't have atms in Nigeria. Today, nobody says that anymore.

I know of a few friends who can afford new cars but prefer to be driving their old but well maintained SUVs. They don't want to get noticed cos of insecurity in town. You can't say someone who owns 2 hotels in lagos eith 3 children can't afford a new car or take a loan for a new one. Orientation needs to change , for those who may consider that. Are you saying Morocco or egypt that you quoted have richer people than Nigeria of over 200m population?

shaybebaby:
How much?

Google a the cost of a plot of land in Ikeja GRA.

femi4:
You ve not answer my question. Are those struggling for palliatives building ? And you say we are rich

You should know when I talk, I don't talk of the poor amongst us. They're everywhere on earth. It's just like asking you...are those depending on food banks over there building?

Kingju:
How many people dey travel for naija comparef to people wey dey jand? Who tell you say dey can't afford to travel more than us?

I tried not to spill the beans but I think I should...each time I visit Disneyland Adventure in LA, I hardly see blacks not to talk of Nigerians there. Na so so white. One day I asked myself, don't blacks too enjoy life?

There was a day I spotted a blackman. The way we looked at each other was strange. I'm sure he must be thinking...so a blackman like me too is seen here today. Its same experience everywhere in fun and tourist sites. Where are they? You have the answer.

Fearyourcreator:
See as them dey brag with pay small small house ... Nawa ooo

No need to brag. I have a house in a choose location in Lagos. Ask how much a plot is sold there nah. Why would you now build pay small small house on top that kain land?

femi4:
How many people can afford a bag of cement in today's Nigeria

Is it people that govt is supporting with palliative. Nigeria is not rich.

You can have any other challenges in the UK but when it comes to food, you are settled.

Go and sit down my friend. You're talking as if you've never stepped your foot on our soil before . Let the bag of cement hit 100k a bag, people are still building, everyday. Despite the cost of cement, did you hear cement manufacturers shouting of product glut.? A glut is when you have piled up goods in warehouse and nobody is buying. Cement isn't still sufficient, despite the cost. What does that suggest to you?

In 2014, a bag of cement was less than 1k. People complained, they said it was expensive yet, mansions kept springing up. I built my first house in an eye brow area of lagos when cement was 2,800. Forget the noise. Only those in the diaspora like my friend dey shout say bag of cement don cost say money sent home couldn't buy much. They have limited and fixed resources

chyzoo4u:
If you know your onions just like myself (yes, I'm bragging), you can own a house within a year in the UK unlike some discouraging stories some people like to tell.

The house you claim you can own within a year isn't yours yet, until you're done paying mortgage, maybe towards retirement. You could still lose it. Owning a house in that manner is deceptive. That's what they tell you once you enter mortgage.
Owning a house or anything is when nobody can cone ask for payment on it. Freedom it is, paying your money for it, 100%
