Collect their gun and keep for defence cos dem fit send another batch later. What they used on them is what yoruba calls ufina in ekiti dialect. It used to be a war weapon against the invaders on the entrance of their towns in the olden days. Once they cross it over, they will all fall down and fall asleep.

Too bad, the leading african economies we're competing with aren't even on the list yet, some people are defending this madness, using UK and USA as comparisons as if our GDPs are same. These are the uneducated fellows as usual from the apc camp

NDC escaped the mistake. cvr.inecnigeria.org

The cleanest party today. Ok candidates are okay for the job. No single blemish traceable to them. Lover of the masses

They're coming down south. Only in Nigeria will a terrorist who wants to die for his cause repent

duro4chang:
I can bet it with you that Fayemi wants appointment. For Aregbe, that is a different case. The issue has to do with his successor not appointment

I differ. None of those who served under buhari lobbied for any appointment under Tinubu. Being minister for 8 good years no be joke. Wetin dem want again? There are more than enough queues. Pls if you have any proof, do well to share

duro4chang:
The f00l has gotten how Tinubu helped him to become a governor too. He is not happy simply because he was not given an appointment.

This is you Duro. Long time. But what more does fayemi need ? He's done his bits. I don't think he's after any appointments, same with aregbe. You know what? That's democracy. You can't agree all the time with your clique. Fayemi also helped tinubu a lot in his days in asylum and the return of democracy in Nigeria. I can't forget the defunct radio kudirat in a hurry

Yes, with your rigging machine. We saw what you did in ekiti despite voting overwhelming for obi.

I still prefer this baba to atiku. But anywhere obi goes, I follow

GRV should support uncle Doherty cos that's the indigenous lagosians candidate, our candidate. GRV should also apologise to the yorubas on his comment about us which he made out of carelessness cos we respect culture and our elders. This may be the reason his uncle didn't support him in 2023.
Then after uncle Doherty's tenure he's welcome. He's part of us and we can't deny him his right to govern, unlike someone whose dad was a king in ijebu and from ijebu but wants to govern after doing deputy for 8 good years. That's the height of greed and.
Our mumu don do and well stop that.

Let me drop pièces of advice based on my experience with you women, including the one under my roof, my girl.

Naturally,the way you're wired,all women do forgive(when they truly want to) but one thing is certain....they never forget. Once a little disagreement ensues, she'd start spewing all you've done to her, despite telling you she's forgiven you and thats a fact. Whereas, over a good meal, a man you offended will forget after already forgiving you and would never talk about it again. I'd advise you try as much as you can, to learn how to forgive and forget. I'm sorry I'd digress into religion. Do you know how many times we offend God in a day? He'll still forgive and forget else, you and I may not be alive till today with our level of iniquities.

Forgiveness is the hardest thing to do but once you remember God's Forgiveness, you would want to forgive and forget. Lastly pray to God for the spirit of Forgiveness and He'll do just that for you. Good luck.

It could have been kwakwanso but the talk failed. That man didn't want to mingle with failure and fraud lol

yaroyaro619:
This Cameroonian again.
Why would Nigerians take this man seriously?

LOL. In Elrufai's word. The north know him better than us, so rich in history and that's why he's not so popular, unlike late buhari and kwakwanso. Remember kwakwanso almost defeated buhari in the primaries conducted ahead of the 2015 presidential election without bribing anyone,while atiku came a distant 3rd despite all the dollar largesse on delegates. See how his candidate floored apc in Kano, despite the latter being the ruling party, both at state and federal levels. These haters won't remember all these but dwell on fake stuff. Let atiku and tinubu test their popularity with Kwakwanso in the north. The south and part of the middle belt is for obi.

Did you know Ekiti people protested at Adebayo area 2 days after the election that it was Peter obi they voted and how come tinubu won? They didn't tell me this, I witnessed it. Just like what happened in rivers. I went to my grannies town in ekiti that day. The rigging machine which is their last hope will be put to a perpetual stop this time around. Some of those who witnessed the electoral fraud of the apc have left the party and would expose any irregularities this time.

Citizenship was never automatic, you attend an interview and could be denied.

It's possible. If it's not, I'd not come here and type what I knew nothing about. There was a moniker i refused to respond to because he's already constituting nnuisance here, always monitoring my posts and attaling it without verifying.

Your citizenship application can be approved without any interview. This happened under Biden administration, though rare. If you filed taxes regularly, you had no DUIs, you're law abiding with clean record, with no bad credit report and ultimately God's favour, it happens

Under same Biden administration,some people had their green card mailed to them without any interview, likewise renewal. If you're in doubt, please search Google for it.

Sorry dear. But SM isn't your best option. Find out if it's spiritual problems first. Good luck to you

When we were shouting that tinubu was unfit, they called us unprintable names. We know him better than those living outside lagos. Now, he's abandoned everyone. At the end of his tenure, he'll say they used insecurity to handicap his government lobatan. Tinubu and propaganda are five and six

In the arrangee primaries,take note.

To omo re, ko baa le fun o ni isinmi. Sadly while a lot of our billionaires are busy chasing money, their children are rottening under their roof

planetx:
7 When did they start renewing citizenship.

I never said citizenship was renewable. Read my message again and internalise.

Greencard renewal not automatic anymore, you could still get denied

citizenship isn't automatic anymore, your application you filed could srill be denied,unlike in the past

Another bad egg amongst us. Crime knows no tribes. No wonder trump is so harsh on foreigners. He's cancelled all greencard applications as we speak and renewal for those still holding green card isn't autimatic anymore likewise citizenship. If you must apply for a green card, come back to Nigeria. When we say make hey while the sun shines, this is the reason. I hope the affected ones had investment at home.
Same people would be abusing our corrupt leaders back home. They'd be worse if they had the opportunity to govern.

UzorIyke:
I really want Blessing Fubara to win, but he can't, wike have grassroots supporters in rivers than the sitting Governor himself, inclusion of President Tinubu support.
On that day of election, Sim Fubara will try to do his duties as the governor of the state, but he will be hearing something like "Power from above" from the security agencies, INEC officials, Governmental officials, etc, thats there normal code they use to deceive people, you will be asking which above?

Are you aware that Fubara's ethnic group is the 2nd largest in rivers? Even the ikwerres are rooting for fubara in the interest of equity and fairness. Ikwerre, being the largest igbo community in rivers are already Obi's followers and Obi is in NDC. Let's see how it goes

kiddaz:
How is restricting vehicle ownership a solution to traffic. So of all the things that could be done to ease traffic like removal of roadside traders and restricting them to the provided market spaces, creation of public parking spaces etc you decide to call this a vision? The so called baba Jakande must be something else and you who considers this a vision is also somewhat the same

I don't understand you. Jakande's lite rail initiative would have reduced lagos traffic by 70%, had he been allowed to do that

nairalanda1:
Tinubu was a nobody in 1983, when Jakande was outsted.
Jakande's metro plan was jettisoned by Buhari, because at the time bubu took over in 1984, oil prices had crashed, and buhari did not want to borrow the money needed to do the project, which would have been burdensome.
Ironically, the current metro project was envisoned by TInubu, and continued and expanded by Fashola and his successors.

Not to defend any politican, btw. FWIW, I think Buhari should have just taken the loan....though it would have meant very high fares for a while to raise money to pay back

Baba jakande could sponsor it with state funds but buhari truncated their regime owing to the fact that he was an enemy of democracy,which he later embraced accidentally 3 decades after . Remember jakande built the largest housing estate in africa back then with lagos state funds. He didn't borrow any farthing.

I had to respond to you cos you seem to be in tune with history. All these lazy genz should go back to the history of this great state and learn. Alhaji folawiyo was part of the committee for the lagos lite rail. By now, railway would have been operational up to everyone's door step. It took London decades to achieve this we know but all our politicians here are short-sighted. All they know is build houses, buy 3 private jets and they and their son buying properties in London. One was exposed recently. I won't mention names cos I've noticed some mods of nairaland are biased. They can ban me deliberately, even without doing their research. Lagos is about the 4th economy in africa meaning, it's capable of being a country on its own and can achieve this. What's the population of Rwanda? What do they have to earn them revenues?. In all what we have, there's nothing to show.

This was baba jakande's vision before Tinubu came and dabaru everything. With his quack innovation. How can someone who claimed to have schooled and lived in the US, even drove taxi for survival ended up this way? Lagos is not as busy as London and New York city. They prefer embezzling money with their quack traffick solution. I had to personally write to a commissioner in Lagos to introduce CCTV and traffic lights to the mainland before they finally acted and this is what happens when a non-indigene who is only interested in milking your state holds sway. All these will be addressed by uncle Doherty, may God protect him. Late Funsho Williams wanted to come up with the railway model in his administration after which his life was cut short. May his killers never find peace and may they continue to face disgrace in the eyes of the world, amen!

When we say its time to take our state back, someone was telling me that we yorubas are the same and can govern any state i just ignored him. He should go to Ondo or oyo state and contest for the post of ordinary ward councillor and see how far. We don take too much shiit and we're ending this asap. I've been to London and new York several times by the grace of God. You'd never know the cities were so populated with the functional rail system in place, including underground train channels.
Their BRT buses here are breaking down already with no solution in sight. I went to abule egba yesterday. On getting to Ile epo market, I was able to count up to 3 buses already stranded on the BRT lane. With a functional rail system in place, you'd have no cause to shrink our already overwhelmed roads for BRT. We have the money to make this happen but they keep stealing it, using it to stage protests and sponsor politics in other states. All these nonsense will soon stop.

This is much needed in this generation. They too like sex. Even the dating apps aren't of any help. The rate of spread is just too much. Some of them who had already been infected would wish they had never been infected and had been beneficiaries of this development. I pray there's a cure for them too and soon. Live responsibly

Then how come Beans prices are coming down.....onions i disagree as we are self sufficient in that,sokoto and kebbi alone are very big on onions,cows come from as far as Mali,I met cow hide dealers when I was in ilela,sokoto state and they told me they bring them from segou,Mali......butvi must agree that I never knew about the gas.

Beans would have cost much less, had they opened the border to niger. There was a time trucks loaded with Beans were not allowed into Nigeria from the border. A lot of them perished as trucks in hundreds linedcup at the border for months. That was at the beginning of the ban. I have a friend in Niger.I had shared his information here before.He also gives me this information cos he comes to Nigeria often, Lagos to be precise.
On the onions, our local production alone can't be enough for Lagos to eat . Check Lagos population.Niger is Africa's largest exporter of onions. Check it as well.The gas coming into Nigeria used to come from their refinery. Hope you know they had a refinery .

Ewoooooo. Indirect deportation for those already there and processing green card or AOS. I learnt trump had suspended all green card applications. God help them pls. I keep dreaming that my in-laws came home suddenly, looking for where to hide so people wouldn't see them. They now came to my house. I pray the dream is cancelled. They've been there close to 10yrs now. Please those in this category,keep praying

Lithiumite:
Pls how true is this about the niger gas prices.....can you please explain?

Google is your friend. They were our main source of cooking gas supply before the border was shut, beans, onions and cows too.

18k for the 12kg cylinder. Wicked regime. Had he not closed the border,Niger republic would have continued to supply us cooking gas and at a cheaper price.Though we had it, but our cooking gas is mainly for export.It's also cheaper to import from Niger republic
