TV/MoviesRe: Snoop Dogg Condemns Hollywood For Forcing LGBTQ Storylines Into Children’s Movie by Eriokanmi: 12:18pm On Aug 25, 2025
LGBTQer is really gaining grounds in the usa and Nigeria isn't an exception. Its nothing but a sign of a last days. What joy do you derive by sleeping with your fellow man or ladies doing the same? Gay men even contract hiv the most, as if God is punishing them for doing the opposite of creation.

Last week I was in Benin for project inspection. As I was about leaving my hotel room, one hefty young guy came to my door, stark naked. I shouted at him, jammed my door but he's still knocking at my door loudly expecting me to open the door for him. Its crazy. He later left the place for his room. It was like a movie.

Its not about beating atiku but the man's stepping down and supporting obi..what's bad or so difficult about that?. Atiku may be working for tinubu cos I dont see how he will get upto 6m in 2027. Im obidient and still hope he steps down. Else, I'd vote tinubu like I said above. South must do 2 terms complete. If not for Obasanjo's dogged moves, the north would have stopped him in his 2nd terms with the ghali n'aaba's sponsored sharia and atiku's revolting against him.

Jonathan got there and was removed with the help of a southerner tinubu. That's the reason I dont like him but I'd not mind voting him to prevent north coming to shortchange south again.

Stop disturbing yourself simply because he's your b-loda. He does not know you.

Go and argue with AMCON.
I repeat, the debt isn't linked to polaris. When you see a tribalist, you can spot one. I'm yoruba. I have confirmed from a reliable source and top manager at polaris the moment I saw your post before responding to you. Read details of the court judgement and when amcon stepped. He's not indebted to polaris.

Kanu didn't lead flamboyanly unlike his peers. In 1995 when going to Ibadan,on the expressway I saw rashidi yekini inside an expensive benz jeep, black colour. He was stuck in the then mowe traffic. How did he end? What of the head master adepoju? Amokachi, etc? Okocha can't even brag of Kanu's investments. He's surviving through advert today.

I have no time for argument.
If its about his hotel and the alleged debt, its not directly linked to any bank. Has amcon won the case yet cos its still in court. Even if they do, he will be fine cos he's got great investments all around. Worst case he'd forfeit one of them and still be ok, unlike his mates struggling for survival. While they were driving porch cars all over Europe and buying private jet, he drove only prado and busy investing. The difference is clear today

I'm not aware of that. Can you show a proof to back this claim? Let's assume it's true, which I doubt, it's normal as a businessman to owe banks. All I'm saying is, he had lots of investments. If he's owing, he has collateral to cover it or has he filed for bankruptcy ?. The VI hotel alone is valued in billions. He's not a broken man to say the least.

PoliticsRe: Why Did Oranmiyan Leave?: Wike's Aide Reacts To Rift Between Ooni And Alaafin by Eriokanmi: 1:36pm On Aug 24, 2025
chopnaira:
Oba Ladigbolu had no issue with the Oonis. Same as the previous Oba of Benin. All this tussle are recent invention that started with the creation of regions and states.
Ladigbolu is seated to the right of Aderemi while Oba Akenzua 1 2nd to the left of Aderemi.
You're talking of seating arrangements here but we're talking of the power tussle. I remember a day late gbegi ojora's grandma was celebrating her birthday at the Premier Hotel in Ibadan in the 90s. I was there as a young boy. Chief adekunle ojora invited both alaafin and ooni. Alaafin first came and was offered a seat. Later, the ooni's very long white limo and convoy came and everywhere was agog. Other kings stood up, except alaafin. Ooni didn't bother greeting him as he went straight to his seat and the party began in earnest.

During oba ladigbolu and oba adesoji aderemi's days, it was same issue. Both lobbied for top positions during the colonial days but oba aderemi got the topmost one. So, they can still sit together while the power tussle exists they're 2 different things.

I was a small boy when oba adesoji aderemi died.
PoliticsRe: Why Did Oranmiyan Leave?: Wike's Aide Reacts To Rift Between Ooni And Alaafin by Eriokanmi: 1:18pm On Aug 24, 2025
delpee:
The Alaafin was the political head by virtue of an empire but the Oyo of the old Oyo empire no longer exists. That empire fell and most parts of Yorubaland today never paid tributes to the Alaafin or they freed themselves after a while. E.g. the Egbas, Ijebus and Ekiti/Ondo axis.

Ife has always been the orisun (origin) and spiritual headquarters of the Yorubas. Ooni is known as arole Oduduwa (the representative of Oduduwa. Ife has remained in the same location unlike Oyo. Oranmiyan who became Alaafin was a descendant of Oduduwa who is regarded as the ancestor of Yorubas.

If only the Alaafin can maintain peace with the Ooni as Alaafin Adeyemi did, there'll be greater peace and more progress in Yorubaland.
Ọ kare lae . Please tell them. Ife is called the cradle of yoruba for several reasons.

Sadly, this power tussle is a primordial one. It existed between oba ladigbolu, the former alaafin and oba olusoji aderemi, the former ooni down to the immediate past alaafin adeyemi and ooni okunade sijuade. Their predecessors also encountered same issue. I don't see this ending soon lol.

SportsRe: Broke Retired Players Should Be Jailed – Ideye by Eriokanmi:
Kanu is the wisest guy i know. Someone should advise Osimeh. Even though he had that money to acquire the car he bought recently, he ought to have invested first. He should ask those who earned better than him but ended up poor in retirement. Na wetin you take money do, be the value of that money .Unfortunately, they don't learn from others and same goes for our young artistes and if you tell them, they'd say it's because the poor ones weren't smart. Records are being broken every day and today's star becomes stale very fast. Time runs out, just like movies. I watched on tiktok hours ago where the inventor of gehgeh university of learning was celebrating thousands of dollar gifts and the whopping number of views in hundreds of thousands,.more than what peller celebrated in a few hours...peller don dey go stale be dat so, time waits for nobody.

Ighalo and Taiye Taiwo share 2nd position. They are big time investors in property in dubai. I may not know much of ighalo's investment there but I know of at least, one of taiye's property there, a good and busy hotel to be precise,.managed by Marriot.

This administration only lifted the ban to alleviate the suffering of the poor masses due to the ill-pricing schemes of the rice manufacturers.

If it were beneficial to Nigerians in the first place, then we'd say this administration has cooked a wicked fault.

Have you forgotten how hunger dealt with us? We were willing to bear the initial effect of the ban hoping our local producers would make things easier on the long run... for wia?

They instead made it totally unbearable.
Same Buhari's administration ought to have tegulated the prices whilst carefully monitoring the grants disbursement.

The loss in investment is 65% Nigeria's money.
The ban lifting was deliberate and with no alternative means of supporting local farmers. When I say this administration is anti masses, I always mean it.

Raxxye:
Do you know what you're saying, Bro?
How was unaffordable price of rice a pro masses policy? Abeg o!
Let me tell you this fact...Nigerian government, especially previous ones before buhari didn't do well in promoting agriculture. Whenever they're giving out loans to farmers, they'd share it among state governors and the real farmers won't see anything. Had there been continous funding of agriculture with the focus on rice, which every home consumes daily, by now, we'd be exporting rice. These are the programs in place overseas for decades.

You cannot compare the price of rice in Nigeria today with the imported rice from Thailand...Thailand has been growing rice from time immemorial with heavy silos everywhere. People are graduating every year in thousands from various institutions but no job. Why is the FG not empowering them with incentives and soft loans with improved yields to grow rice with close monitoring? In 3 years, price of rice would drop drastically. The 2bn usd they wasted on the refinery's TAM and the ones the current administration is planning to waste would have been too much to establish the growth of enough rice locally and in a sustainable way.

When buhari came, he started something which the previous governments didn't do. Lagos collaborated with Kebbi state and we had Lake rice. Individuals like Olam too were key players but they couldn't cope. Had this effort been sustained, by now a bag of rice would have dropped drastically. Its not rocket science but the government isn't just bothered cos their allies are those importing them.

China shut their borders for years and today, they're about taking over the world. Its just like petrol. If more players can be licenced to own refineries, petrol price will drop further. You don't expect a policy established in order to end primordial rots to have an immediate effect and as our GDP keeps going down. Are you aware we now import palm oil? Its because the local industry can't cope and cost of production is so high. Only a few are players in the industry. The imported ones will always be cheaper because they have the resources and manpower to produce in large qty. No enabling environment, which is the government's major duty, to grow rice. Insecurity is also a major issue as many farmers had abandoned their lands. Benue isn't the food basket of the nation anymore. We used to have benue rice back then.

An Asian.country came to Nigeria in the late 70s to learn of palm oil palpitations. Today, Nigeria imports palm oil from them due to very little efforts of the successive administrations (if there was any) in the sector. Awolowo initiated it but was jettisoned by successive leaders. Same applies to cotton and ground nut pyramids in the north. Buhari came and wanted to bring it back. He did his best but this administration isn't sustaining it. They abandoned it completely. How can we grow in such a manner? . Due to this, we will continue to grow rice locally at high prices cos we can't meet up with farmers in Thailand who have been there for ages and empowered by their successive leaders.

We attach sentiments to everything in this country and this has to stop. When we talk agriculture today, give it to the north. They have vast lands to grow. You could drive 3 hours and you'd not see a single building on the northern terrain. Down south, we can grow cocoa, cassava, oil palm, rubber etc too as they were, in the past. What buhari did was laudable but not sustained by Tinubu. He should look into this else, price of local rice will keep soaring. See what buhari did in the oil sector. Today, petrol would have hit 2k a liter cos those importing them would have monopolised it and made more money.
