We4all: She no get father? Why is everyone talking about her grand father and not her father? if her father isn't successful, does that make him less human? You are absolutely correct, I have endeavoured as well to dig up where her father is or was, but since her grandfather and great grandfather were known personalities, reasons many are mentioning them |

SeraphicWind: These you peoples annoying comparisons is getting stale day by day. Very annoying.
It is just like you people want to be mocking people.
I believe you are the USA. Many of us live outside too.
A mechanic making 25 dollar per hour in the USA can afford 2 crates comfortably. Just with 1 hour salary.
A mechanic working in Nigeria even under a notable company cannot even buy half crate with 3 hours salary.
Going by your stale comparison, it requires 12,000 naira to buy just 2 crates. How many mechanics earn 12,000 naira daily not to talk of hourly?
Let us not even talk about civil servants. Many of them earn less than 30k monthly. I mean millions of them.
That means their salaries will finish just buying 5 crates of egg!
What happens to other necessities of life?
Will your one day salary in the USA finish just buying 5 crates of eggs? Let us not talk about 1 month.
Guy please stop. I beg you in the name of God almighty. You are mocking people.
If you have spare cash, support people in Nigeria so that people can eat.
People are mad hungry in that country!
N.B I live extremely far away from that hellfire on earth. Nothing more to add, you have done justice to the issue, it seems those making those stupid comparison are mocking us, as a businessman, with registered company, I have not done any haulage at Apapa since July 4th, thank God I stay in my house, just imagine someone making such demeaning and reprehensible comparison, are the wages the same? Some people are deranged honestly |

Domainer1999: Affordable housing is now getting out of reach of common man especially in major cities.
Imagine #2M cannot secure you a 2BR apartment in Chief Anthony Enahoro housing estate Ogba, Lagos. We were told to prepare #3.5 - #4M.
And houses like this are called affordable housing, what’s affordable in this?
It seems we’re now working to feed landlords.
Short let's rentals also contribute to the hike in rent price as municipal landlords now peg ground rent to their prices.
Appropriate authorities should look into this, it is getting preposterous! in 2020 that my wife deliberately forced me to relocate to our house in OTA, I spent #12m to put up a 3 bedroom and I always thank God for giving me the grace, listening to what tenants are facing, with the dwindling income, I have empathy for them and I do hope the government could relax these hard economic policies and we could have peace of mind |

Khayfacor: A Cry For Justice: My Sister’s Peculiar Case At FUTA
Hello everyone, I’m writing this with a heavy heart, hoping to get some advice or raise awareness about a situation my sister is currently facing with FUTA (Federal University of Technology, Akure).
She was granted admission into the university, and naturally, as any excited prospective student would, she began fulfilling all the requirements: paying the acceptance fee, tuition fees, and even securing accommodation. All seemed to be going well—until the institution suddenly declared her ineligible to register because she wasn’t 16 years old at the time of admission.
Now, I understand that there are guidelines and age requirements, but here’s where her case becomes unique: she turned 16 on the 12th of January, even before the scheduled matriculation ceremony. So technically, by the time her journey as a university student would officially begin, she already met the age criterion.
Despite this, FUTA has refused to allow her to register. It’s heartbreaking and frustrating. How can an institution accept payments for multiple fees, knowing full well her age at the time of admission, and then later use it as a barrier against her?
This speaks to a larger issue I’ve observed with Nigerian institutions—a lack of consistency, proper guidelines, and clear communication. Students and their families pour their resources and hopes into this process, only to be met with unnecessary roadblocks that could have been avoided with a little competence and foresight.
My sister’s dream of furthering her education is now hanging in the balance, not because of any fault of her own but because of a rigid and unfair system. I’m reaching out to this forum to share her story and ask:
Has anyone experienced or heard of a similar situation?
What can we do to challenge this decision and ensure she gets the opportunity she deserves?
Thank you for taking the time to read this. Any advice, insight, or even words of encouragement would mean the world to us right now. My son has a rather similar but straight forward experience, he was offered admission, paid acceptance but he was not 16 years old as at time of matriculation, the school offered us to defer his admission till this academic session 2024/2025, we did not go forward other than the acceptance fees payment, we are trying now to activate the admission since the school in question will not resume until around March ending or early April, date of matriculation should be the date he or she is officially admitted, that's the experience, FUTA should give her opportunity to defer her admission if truly it's because of age, though, school policy differs! |

thesicilian: If they're setting up a new political party in 2025 then their target should be 2031, not 2027. There's no way a 2yr old party is going to defeat an incumbent, corrupt party in 2027. It's just not realistic. when was APC formed and when did they dislodged PDP? They are a bit late but not completely lost, however, all opposition Political parties must merge before September,2025 if they have any serious intentions to displace this miserable APC |

People underestimate the sacrifice family members do for each other.
I Remember when my elder sis collected loan of 1.3M just to pay for my brother who was trying to japa to Kuwait 🇰🇼.
Long story short. Las Las the agent scammed us. She have to hustle and pay for the loan . Funny thing is she is still paying the loan 
F.O.E. = family over everything. if one doesn't value his or her family,na him headache, family is everything! Though, everyone must be working on same wavelength, and not be selfish from the early stages, to make sacrifices for others, my immediate younger sister is the best I could ask from God, the love within my siblings are top notch and we are showing our children that we are ONE BONDED BY BLOOD , LOVE AND COMRADESHIP |
