PoliticsRe: Video: Be The Judge!! Peter Obi Lied Again by Eriokanmi: 4:41pm On Nov 19, 2022
gidgiddy:
The term "senior boy" or "old boy" means someone who had graduated from the school before you entered
Don't mind them. They're bereft of ideas. I've had people call me senior my senior boy in the past even though he wasn't in my school as of the time I graduated. I was the assistant senior boy of my great school. People had called me senior man too. That's why I keep saying urchins are illiterate. This is another proof. If a medical doctor wants to address or recognise their members at their event, they'd say senior colleagues, including those who are retired and out of service. Does it now mean the one addressing them senior colleagues was their mate?

He is bad candidate that must be exposed as a liar...so rest
I've told you, you people should rest. Why bother yourself over somebody who can't win, someone without a structure? If i were you, I'd concentrate on the already battered image of tinubu in the narcotics deals, which he didn't deny, instead of having a sleepless night over a candidate who only has supporters on social media. The apc's camp is working round the clock on how to redeem his image as I speak...whichever strategy used, it won't change anything. Even FFK said earlier that he was truly investigated by the FBI on the narcotics issue

Even atiku who once ignorantly said the majority of northern youths didn't have a twitter or Facebook account has since eaten up his vomit. If you visit hausa section on twitter or Facebook, you'd be shocked.

The truth is, these old politicians think this generation does things the old way. Just tell some people who are followers of a political candidate that there would be a meeting at a particular place and time, you'd be shocked what you'd see when you get there.

The era of inducing people with money, moodles of rice,etc to a campaign venue is long outdated.

PoliticsRe: Northern Vs Southern Perception Of Presidential Elections by Eriokanmi: 12:30pm On Nov 19, 2022
donestk:
In 2015, southern Nigeria voted GEJ out because of alleged incompetence.

While northern Nigeria voted GEJ out not because of incompetence but simply because they wanted on of their own at the helms of affairs.

In 2019, the incumbent retained power not because of outstanding performance but because their own needed to still be at the seat of power.

2023 presidential elections will still play out based on ethnic and religious lines.
I don't think so...rather,Nigerians voted GEJ out because of incompetency and massive corruption. I voted him in 2011 on the account of his slogan...breath of fresh air. I was thinking cos he's the first university graduate we'd have as a major contestant and from a leading party, coupled with the little sound experience we had when his boss Alh. Yaradua was in power before the unfortunate death. He came.and messed things up. People actually thought he performed so well cos of the oil boom. Had Nigeria harnessed that opportunity optimally, we'd have fared much more better as a nation under his administration then and till now. He allowed corruption to hold sway as if he'd be there forever.

Buhari wasn't a good alternative either. We just wanted to try him, given his antecedents in the 80s.

Next year's election would be a different ball game. Obi has my vote. So far, he's the only candidate who reasons logically and can match his words with action, given his antecedents.

PoliticsRe: Liar Tinubu: I Trekked To School At Ebute Metta When Tinubu Built Lagos- Atiku by Eriokanmi:
I may not be in support of Atiku but I agree on this as someone who grew up in lagos like him. The 3rd mainland bridge and many roads were constructed in the 80s in lagos. I remember when Late Oba Oyekan was all smiles cos of the 3rd mainland bridge commissioning in those days. The below are the Lagos Governors who made lagos development happen during their time.

Pa Jakande...opened up Lekki Axis up to Epe. Built the largest housing estate in Africa without borrowing kobo and delivered it in less than 4 years. He started the much publicised lagos literail and promised to deliver in 8 years but Buhari's coup stopped him.

Air Commodore Gbolahan Mudashiru also did roads in Ikorodu and epe axis.

Commodore Mike Akhigbe...worked on road projects on Lagos mainland, island, including yaba

Brig. General Raji Rasaki worked hard at Mile 2, Mile 12 up to Alaba , Okoko etc.

Sir Michael Otedola( aka baba printer of shomolu). He owned a small printing press at shomolu in those days in which Femi Otedola was helping out after his secondary school education, before his dad got that contract connection which gave him a link with IBB at doddan barracks and the latter presented him as lagos gubernatorial candidate unopposed which he won. He also did his best in such a little time, starting from shomolu where he rose to stardom to bariga axis

Similarly, colonel Olagunsoye Oyinlola concentrated on Ojota, Ketu, Did roads on lagos island around Campus( upper campus) up to Igbosere, Ikoyi and VI axis

Col Buba Marwa ( aka , lagos boy). He grew up in Lagos as the son of a military corporal, married anti yemisi. He was also posted to serve in lagos. Marwa opened up the Alimosho, once a forest and less-developed area. He constructed the ayobo and popular AIT roads where gorilla was killed by one of the road workers one morning.. Marwa also opened up some parts of alausa, up to the CBD and built marwa gardens which was later changed to mko gardens.

Tinubu came, did his bits and later claimed all the glory of his predecessors as his personal efforts grin instead of coming straight to the people. Amazingly, none of his predecessors alive ever bragged of their achievements in Lagos. Lagos IGR wasn't up to what it is today when his predecessors did so much wonders with lagos revenues. Now that the IGR is in billions on paper, what have we seen? Fashola even outperformed him and it was because he didn't agree with tinubu on certain terms which was why he wanted to remove him during his 2nd term bid.

Ambode came and opened our eyes with projects. He made us believe lagos could actually get more with the available resources. He cut tinubu off totally. For the first time in 30 years, lagos recorded budget surplus. In fact, what ambode achieved in less than 4 years, tinubu didn't achieve in his 8 years as lagos governor. It was jeun soke, ko tun jeun sapo everywhere.

PropertiesRe: Your Annual Rent Shouldn't Exceed Your Two Months Salary. If It Does by Eriokanmi: 9:06am On Nov 19, 2022
IyaTola:
My yealy rent is about 22% of my annual income. I live in a 2 bedroom apartment in Alimosho LGA, Lagos. The environment is decent and I look forward to becoming a landlord in the same area. All the other tenants knew somehow that I don't belong among them. Living below your means is possible sometimes but the pressure is high & I wasn't "really comfortable" either. All depends on you & your goals.

Nigeria will humble you..the cheap house you're looking for does not have vacancy in the location where you work, now what do you do? and even the pay for the job can't meet your needs 50%..the system is happening to all of us, that's just the truth.. how many jobs pay over 100k today
You made a lot of sense . Amazingly, inflation had eaten up that small take home sef. Rent too had gone up considerably cos landlords don dey para cos of high cost of living. E don reach everyone.

I say amen to that house you're hoping for. Just keep the faith alive and above all, vote wisely oo. Dem no dey tell pesin. Bigotry doesn't solve any problems and every decision we make will either make or mar us.

That's why pa jakande will always be in our minds. This wasn't the lagos template drawn by pa jakande which tinubu hijacked and edited to suit his selfish gains. By now, had the template been followed, housing in lagos would have been so affordable and available today. I say again, vote wisely.

PoliticsRe: We Are Not Fools; Why Didn’t You Challenge Buhari These Years? – Wike To Atiku by Eriokanmi:
Tell him. Even when things were going awry, Tinubu stayed aloof, waiting patiently for his turn to rule, based on their agreement before forming the apc in 2015. That's what brought the word Emilokan. Even if Nigeria's economy plunges into an abyss, these people don't care. They've turned it into a turn by turn arrangement. When push comes to shove, they run away. Those who would go to dubai would go, those who would run to London would do so. They all have private jets,
standby . Na only you and i go remain. There's a carpenter who makes beautiful woven seats along the road. He was wearing a t-shirt of a politician. He said...oga oo, please find me something when you're coming back cos i never sell for days. I asked him, do you know ikoyi, he said yes, can't you just go there in this t-shirt and ask him to give you something to eat cos you've not sold for days and you're hungry? He laughed and said, security no go gree am enter, that he doesn't know him as well. Why would you vote someone who only cares about those around him? No be craze be dat? Stop being a bigot cos na una go suffer pas. His wife too was there, laughing.

Long story cut short, I told him to vote him and see more hardship. I dropped something for him and left.

Any sane being watching him in the video would know he was not coherent...like someone who has just returned from a weed rehab .

His condition had become so deteriorated before he got help from the woman. E dey dem bodi

honestly this country is just too difficult. My father who isn't working in the corporate organisation got married in his mid 20s and he was doing pretty fine then not now anymore. Here i am the son jobless with my strong 2.1 results and marketable skills. I have friends with first class jobless. There are guys in their 40s single and still living with their parents

Nigeria wasn't fair with my generation seriously and it's really unfair. Not everyone will indulge in cyber fraud for crying out loud
I agree with you. We are also responsible for some decisions we make in life. It's up to all of us, February 2023 isn't far. Don't fall for their lies..vote wisely.

In the 70s when all todays corrupt leaders were boys, there were good government programmes in place, which most of them also enjoyed. There were farm settlements, agric loans, government scholarships, etc geared at encouraging graduates and youths. Same leaders today who enjoyed the benefits had succeeded in killing it. I had an Indian girl as my classmate cos education was so strong in Nigeria. They allowed universities to go on strike for 8 good months while their children are schooling overseas. Vote wisely.
FamilyRe: My Mother Wants Me To Rent My Own House by Eriokanmi:
Greattestman:
This issue has been eating me up for so long and i don't know what to do. My mother began pressurizing me to rent my own house and leave her alone.

It was unprecedented and i don't expect that from her. I'm barely 20 and I teach in a private school. I also do home lessons so my monthly income ranges from 25k to 30k or thereabout.

This money will not be enough for me to rent a house, buy my food and take care of myself. I have tried to explain but she refused to understand with me. She told her friends to advice me to leave; that I'm matured enough to live alone.

I'm pressed and I need your advice.
You're not at fault, neither is your mum. Nigerian leaders will face God's judgement in the last day and I doubt they'd be set free. In their time, many if not all of them married in their early 20s. Obviously before they attained that age, they must have been living independently cos everything was pretty fine. Before graduation, you already had a job waiting. Teachers were driving new cars, living comfortable life, etc. What do we have today? Leaders owning private jets which they reaped people off to buy. Placing their children in strategic positions while the masses keep suffering. They stash money in their homes and turn their mansions into banks. I hope this generation would be wise someday
SportsRe: Gay Couples Will Be Allowed To Openly Hold Hands And Kiss At Qatar World Cup by Eriokanmi: 2:34pm On Nov 18, 2022
Since Qatar has accepted to host the world cup, they must also allow all these nonsense while the tournament lasts. I read on the BBC that they'd not allow people drink alcohol around the stadium area. Meanwhile Budweiser is one of the official sponsors.
If you know you'd not accept some practices to encroach on your policies or faith, always think deeply before you take any offer cos there may be some factors surrounding it which you may not see until after you've accepted the offer. This applies in all walks of life
