Two days on , two days off.

Enugu south, achara layout.
Make una go change transformer.

Igboid:
This data can be better Interpreted when we see the amount of mega watts of electricity allocated to each zone and then compare it with how much they made.

For example if Enugu distribution company got 272MB and Ibadan distribution company got 500MB, you wouldn't expect amount generated to be similar.
My people stay in Enugu, and we hardly get light.
We use prepaid, so if they gave us more light, we will burn our units faster and buy more units, enabling Enugu distribution company to generate more money, but this doesn't happen.
SE hardly get electricity, we depend alot on generators.

Shut up, i stay in enugu, we dey get light 2 4 7. No body dey dey even put gen now

The first time i went to lagos, was in 2020, for an interview. As i reach lagos, i was like na this lagos way ppl dey talk, for a guy dat spent most of his adult life in enugu and abuja.

Peter Obi legacy. Great man
I wonder why St Charles College no win. In my days we won the cowbell olympiad for mathematics. I went to university to study medicine but became the best student in physics in my year 1. That time, before lecturer set questions finish I don answer am. Girls would always wonder how I do it and they want to be my friends. Damn..

Thank you Peter Obi.. okwute igbo

U go obodo chalie, which set?

I hate it when men surrender himself to some crafty woman, who turns his lust to her strength. That is the kind of men we have in this generation, weak puccies. Seeking validation from woman, begging woman for sex. You are just induce in her pucci juice, n she knows it.

SpecialAdviser:
The Church should not expect to achieve anything from writing letters. You are writing to another Muslim. Nonesense

The church should rather get itself rid of excessive lust after money. That is exactly what is killing it.

The problem here is not the Muslims. The problem is that Christians are the daftest people I have ever seen. No thanks to all these latest Christian pastors who teach their faithfuls that life is all about making money. While his members attend churches to get richer, he exploit their mentality to demand 10% tithe from them.

How can a religion with 50% population that has been crying over Islamization go to the poll with one Christian vs three Muslims and come back losing? Lol. And they presented the best candidate. I know many Christians may not read into the implications of that. Even as they rigged, majority of Christians are in the forefront of that rigging. Two reasons, MONEY and PERSONAL INTEREST.


Many Christians are so lustfully attached to money that they have failed to defend their faith. Even Jesus is embarrassed by their acts. They end up making social media noise. Lol. Reminds me of how Christianity was phased out in Turkey. We do not have real Christians. We only have people bearing Christian names. I trust Muslims to show Christians pepper in any Christian vs Muslim presidential election any time any day going forward. Muslims are more principled when it comes to their religion. My fellow Christians, it's a big SHAME

My brother eh, we are fucking weak, our weakness oozes to high heaven, even the God in the old testament was f**** violent. Why not choose the violent part in the bible and implement it in our life. Look at israel as a country surrendered by Arab nation. If they weren't violent and daring will there be anything like israel today. For you conquer this world, you have to be dangerous along with self control. That is what makes you strong,
Nobody will wish to Bleep with you cus they know what they will be getting. And you can't achieve that being a devoted christian, who leaves everything for their GOD

Pressure ti wa

Angelfrost:
It's his money not yours, and he is under no compulsion to release a dime to fund your dreams or fantasies!

Giving you the basics of life, and a proper education ought to be enough to set you up for life... Anything else is a gift not your right!

He even has the right to leave everything to charity and the needy in his will!

This act or mentality of entitlement begins from homes... This is poor upbringing!

People like me from made homes are not even thinking of inheritance but building sustainable personal legacies!

Your parents is the only people rage owe everything, they only hands up when u have stood on your feet

Skyview01:
100% agree.

I had a Nigerian lady walk up to me, Gucci bag, Gucci top and pullovers and look verry rich with a pair of gucci sunglasses to match but all her accounts in the negatives.
I also have this Vietnamese guy who wears the same shoe everyday and he was always in the bank early in the morning to save money from his drycleaning business.
I had asked him once, why he did not buy a new pair of shoe and he told me he had no money.

Mind you he had about $500,000 in the cheqing account at the time.

I beg to disagree.
Their are classical beings. I man is said to have class when he has a good sense of dressing, rich and intelligent, making him live a luxurious life. Is depends on the person perspectives.Davido spends money on luxury, he is still rich. Some rich u think that dresses shabby maybe because of the nature of their work or business. Eg u fit see a regular millionaire igbo man in his spare parts shop wearing only net singlet and short. But if you see him on Sunday in the church u fit no recognize am

sukkot:
See at this point I don't understand most Nigerians anymore. Every time I offer a helping hand to Nigerians they turn to your enemy. I don't understand the dynamics behind it. The whole interaction just gets very awkward after that . It's like they hate you for " humbling " them. It never fails.

But the ones who have a pure friendly relationship with you? Are the ones you haven't given anything yet. So in my everyday life person to person I try to do charity because charity covers a multitude of sins and givers never lack.

So this is a recent case study. This young guy , a security guard was sent by the company to guard the house I stay. I would say about 19 years old. One night I went grocery shopping and I was going through the gate he runs over from across the street and told me he was hungry. So I said what does he eat ? He said he likes indomie . So I went to my place and brought out like 5 indomie and 3 soft drinks and 2 sardines and gave it to him. He thanked me.

Every 2 days when I go out I would do small grocery shopping for him. Indomie and biscuits and soft drinks sardine or bread. A few times when I go out to get bottled palmwine for myself I would get him palmwine or orijin beer he likes. But I started noticing his entitlement behaviour like on the days when I don't buy him anything he would time when I Am coming home and sit beside my door when he sees me carrying my own groceries and he would be looking at me like he is depressed. And he would Always be watching me to see if I am going grocery shopping and he would hang around the car to see if I would come out with grocery.

Let's just say this guy got ridiculously stalkerish and so I called him up 4 days ago and asked him has his salary being paid yet? He said yes. Because am thinking all these things he is doing because he is new on the job and has no money and is hungry so I put up with it for like a month.

But once he told me yes that he had being paid, I in a roundabout way told him I don't tolerate the stalking. That he doesn't need to be following me or waiting on me. Anyway since that day this guy just turned into an enemy. Someone who I have been buying groceries for for almost a whole month just turned hostile like that. Now all that time I was buying him grocery he would do ass kissing stuff like when I drop my black trash bag outside my door he would take it to the bin outside for me but since that day the guy just bone my trash bags lol.

Anyway the point here is this ? You create an enemy unknowingly out of those you help - not family members- because I think it is humiliating for them and they despise you for it, so if you are going to offer charity don't offer it to people you have to see on a daily basis. Just find a beggar in the street that you would never see again. Nigerians are funny, they beg you for money but they hate you for giving them that money especially if it is not a life changing amount.

It's like a guy I gave 5000 naira one time and he thought it was an insult, just a regular guy who I don't even know like that, God is my witness, which 5000 is no money but it was just for him to buy beer for the weekend, you can get 15 beers with 5000 when I gave it to him.

So out here on these streets you have to be savage. No more mr nice guy ooo lol. basically if you are not offering guys over 100k just forget it cuz they would hate you. look for a real beggar who would appreciate 5000 or 1000.

Their are 3 levels of dependancy, I have take my time to study human psychology and behavioral pattern. Give a man a gift first time he will appreciate and thank you. 1st level
Give him the second time, he will anticipate if he comes the third time you till give him. 2nd level
Give him the third time he becomes entitled.
Fourth time, he start depending on you, he fit even fight you for that. E go be like say na him right. That is human behavioral pattern, e just dey wired like that. Intelligent folk know when to cut off so dat he wouldn't be subconsciously dependant. Same apply when you are helping know when to cut off so that your subject would be totally dependant on you. It all apply in the spheres of life.

SweetyZinta:
I served in Abuja from 2018-2019. The experience was OK. I was fortunate to supervise Jamb exams and was INEC adhoc staff for 2019 elections. Also made small money on the side from PPA

See my nysc mate o, which platoon u dey

I never attended this shit for once in abuja camp. I go just dey my hostel dey crash. After the early morning parade, then chop food, afternoon I go crash, evening I go go look for nanny way go keep me company.

Sheggy13:
Exactly. The work Akpabio put in for Tinubu was very obvious after stepping down for him in the primaries unlike Kalu who antagonised Tinubu all the way and was hobnobbing with Lawan. Even the election results in Abia showed he never cared to work for Tinubu there as he won his own Senate seat while Tinubu lost woefully, both elections held same time. Making Kalu the Senate President would be rewarding disloyalty and treachery.

Just say it plainly he didn't rigged for tinubu. Anyhow una wan do am self. The system is already bastardize

sparko1:
You say it like, they weren't allowed to go home.

Business is what brought igbos to Lagos, as far as there's market, they are not going anywhere.

Do bizness n live normal, if you want build edifice, do it in your region. Don't come and be buying land up and down in another man region. Even I if u want to own a property because you are earning a living dia, let it not pass 1. Go to your region and build estate. Nigeria is sitting on the keg of gun powder. Their are hausas that makes millions in the east. They can never buy n build on other man's land. They rather stay on a high brow area and be paying big rent. But an ibo man once he touch small money he go start to build houses up and down on another mans land, if small demolition happen you begin to wail, n say because u are an igbo man, omo na u dey do urself. I entered jos one time if u see the house one iboman build for zagamanda, I begin vex why will u build that kind of house in far north, even if u make million why can't u pay rent in a good area, zagamanda is even a big man area, why can u find a place n rent then build that kind of house in the east. A yoruba or Fulani man would never do that even if they makes billion. That's why dey see us as ppl dat likes dominating. Ibos are reason land is very expensive in nigeria

koladata:
Men were never designed to sleep with one woman for the rest of their lives. That's why there's a virginity seal on women at birth while there's no seal on men. Even in basic biology, men's sexual anatomy is completely different , the hormones and desires are referent. most of us have only come to accept this one man one woman thing because someone wrote it in the bible which i'm sure God didn't write that thing, he's not an author of confusion because that would have contradict his designs.

Even in the Bible self most of his followers abi prophet no marry one or Bleep one eg Abraham, Moses, Jacob, Isaac, David, Solomon etc etc

I rather die starvation, the color self make me wanna purge. The height of it, is using 🧹.

Sleekfingers:
Do you know , how broad agriculture is ?

No doubt, some people are doing it in the north and other part of the country without any degree or any form of formal education. But can you compare those that study agriculture in school to those that are not?

,
There is a lot of techs in agriculture I swear, a lot of untap billions there. For eg, do know you can plant n harvest over 5 thousand tuber of yam from small portion of land. Ordinarily
something that requires a whole a lot of hectares of land. My friend hu studied crop production have showed a plantain plantation planted on a controlled room, the floor was even cemented, the planted sucker was planted on a clay palate filled with nutrients (soil), then irrigation chanels. The way agriculture is going, I swear u don't even need a farm.
Only few guys are using tech in agriculture in Nigeria. Nigerians are very resilience, corrupt leaders are just short changing us

Emeks008:
Good old days. Listening to music on my Nokia xpress and taking a walk to mama Bidemi shop to buy one the below biscuits. Lol

I don catch goosebumps, especially that speedy mixed with groundnut in my sch short, I will be feeling like I am on top of the world

Christians and their hypocrisy, so the others that died na satan saved them. When law of natural selection happens to them. They start thinking they are special to God.
FYI, 50 cent got hit 9 times. The man is still breathing. If didn't from singing his normal secular song. Imagine say na one chosen mapol dem shoot like dat n he survived. We for no go dey hia word

CuteNbad:
still the same story? Abi you don dey see money now

No buddy, that is a long tym ago

JeffreyJunior:
I avoid discussing politics in this forum but I'm kinda happy Peter didn't win.

Naija is not ready for people like him as president, not yet. They need some more time to be ready, maybe after a few more generations pass by.

He as president may turn out as worse because all the evil forces of this generation will be working against him so why the waste of time.

Let the usual politicians continue until 100% of Nigerians irrespective of tribe and religion get fed up and yearn for real leadership.

Bam!!, you nailed it as they nailed Jesus at the cross. this is what I told my guy we are not yet ready for good leadership in Nigeria 🇳🇬. Everybody should focus on his or her hustle until we (entire country) yarn for good leadership. N for my igbo brothers, just focus more on your hustle. As far as we survive Buhari, we go survive Tinubu. Buhari's Presidency I didn't see any benefit it did to the north. If Obi was declared a win, I wonder the kind of turmoil this country would have been in. Because all these thieves would have gone to all lengths to truncate his government

This world is really funny, #11,000 way person dey spend carelessly for a day. Na him person go wait for about 30days to get? With suffer on top. God forbid. And we still dey vote useless leaders on top. Suffer pass suffer o, how person wan take survive with 11k a month. How una dey do am

You are not being sincere. Is Fayose the first person Rufai would be rude to?

You have no idea how this Rufai attitude is costing not only arise tv but other media as well.

During the campaign, Apc denied most of the media access to cover their events, do you have an idea how much they would have made running advers on those live events .

Rufai is joking with his job

Why are you people pampering this politicians, if you are in public office, your life past n present will be through to d public, na una type dey make politician steal with impunity.

Edeoga ppl really don't like him, Peter is a lesser devil, had it been the apga guy is in labour is would have favoured him. Peter mba may be a good person, na just say na chimaroke boy. Tho Sullivan was chimaroke boy but remains the best gov since the creation of enugu. Guruguru just took us back to square 1. I noticed good ppl no dey too dey contest. After gov, the man just relaxes, e b like say dey APC now self. Anywhere u dey mr Sullivan may God almighty bless you, I pray we have someone like you in Peter mba

sweetjohn:
Imagine the height of deceipts. A Yoruba man from Ogun, or Osun telling a true lagosian not to vote their own brother and sons but vote them. And to add pepper to injury, this osun and Ogun immigrants branded your own brother outcast and you are appruading them. Quick two questions. How many Lagosian have ruled Lagos or made half of the money Tinubu stole from Lagos? How many Lagosians have gone to Ogun or Osun to contest for governorship and win? An ananmbra man can not come to Ebonyi to contest election and win neither will any south east person go to any other south east state to try such. So, the ball is now on your court true Lagosian. Don't fall to this cheap blackmail from all this Yoruba immigrants from other sw states. Don't be a slave in your own land.

Waiting concern Igbos with gubernatorial positions in Lagos or any other states. No Igbo man have ever gone to any other states to contest for governorship. But according to the constitution, every Nigerians has the power to vote anywhere he or she resident. Ours is just to vote and yours (the true indigene) is to contest. And from my rights accorded to me by the constitution of Nigeria, I say vote for LP from top to bottom in Lagos states.

Igbos are the most civilized tribe. We don't threaten people on who to vote and not to vote. We have never burnt any person shops, houses or business places.

Igbos don't do tribalism and don't even have time for it when he is supposed to be making money in his shop. Tribalism is practice be jobless tribal bigots and supported by brainless individual.

You all should have known the Igbos by now, Igbos don't succumb to threat. It's not today they have started threatening the Igbos. For years the Igbos have been threatened in the north but we are still strong there. In 2015, the Oba of Lagos who instead of supportibg his own, Agbaje but due to poor rational ability and low self esteem, threatened the Igbos of Lagoon if they should vote for Agbeje his own brother. What happened? Igbos all came out to vote en mass for Agbeje.
Come March 18th, even the Igbos that don't want to vote before in Lagos will come out enmass to vote for Gbadebo. The average Igboman Loves challenges and hate it when one try to play god over another. We don't do eye service, we say it as it is and leave the truth glaring to your face.

U don talk finish bro, how I wish say I dey lagos

Regex:
I have been asking myself same question. I have tried to look into what's actually the problem. But then you look at Barbados, Trinidad and Tobago, and other black race not in Africa, when compared are doing far much better than us. I can't rule out evolution, but if it is evolution, why are those Caribbean countries doing well than their African counterpart?

It has to do with mindset and brainpower. We are known by our physical strength and a good threshold for stress, we couldn't even emancipate ourselves from slavery whites had to stop it themselves. A black man with reserve his live n condition his mind to suffer and be happy (aka suffering n smiling), a white would rather die than to see that happen.
