I will not tell Nigerians how I will generate 10,000MW of electricity. It’s not for them to know. They just have to believe me and vote for me — Peter Obi


The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has insisted that Nigerians do not need to know how he plans to deliver 10,000 megawatts of electricity if elected president, saying they only need to trust him based on his track record.

Speaking during an interview with media personality Rufai Oseni, Obi was pressed to explain his promise to increase Nigeria’s power generation capacity to at least 10,000MW within four years.

When asked to provide a detailed roadmap, Obi declined, arguing that political leaders are often judged by their credibility rather than by publicly disclosing every aspect of their plans.

“No, no, no, I’m not going to tell you how. It is not for you to know how. It is for you to look at the man who is saying this,” Obi said.

The former Anambra governor maintained that he had a history of fulfilling promises while in office and reiterated his commitment to improving Nigeria’s electricity supply.

“I have said, and I repeat, that in four years we will generate, transmit, and distribute at least 10,000 megawatts of electricity,” he stated.

As Rufai Oseni, the host, continued to demand specifics, Obi stood his ground, insisting that voters should focus on whether they trust him to deliver.

“They don’t need to know. They need to believe in me,” he said.

Obi also criticized successive governments over Nigeria’s power sector, claiming that no new government-owned power plant had been commissioned since 2015. 

He contrasted Nigeria’s performance with countries such as Indonesia, India and Egypt, which he said significantly expanded their electricity generation capacity over the same period.

According to Obi, achieving higher power output is “not rocket science,” adding that he has studied successful models in other countries and understands what is required to replicate such progress in Nigeria.
“My commitment is that I will deliver it. I have my name on it,” he said.

Phakelumthakathi (often spelled Phakel'umthakathi) is a prominent South African community activist and social media commentator known for leading local movements focused on border control, unemployment, and undocumented foreign

He recently said that the country is so rich that the government can afford to give each citizen 1 million Rams yearly for the rest of their lives. This is not possible of course but these type of people are who fuel hate due to ignorance and lack of education

Providing every South African citizen with R1 million annually is economically impossible. With a population of over 63 million people, this would cost more than R60 trillion per year, which is nearly 60 times greater than the nation's total GDP of roughly $480 billion (approximately R8.8 trillion).

Hey everyone,

I came across a viral post some times back where a woman listed strict “rules” women should follow to avoid looking cheap or too available when dating. The reactions were intense, and honestly, it opened up a bigger question about how people are approaching relationships today.

The original post sounded more like a strategy manual than a dating guide. It suggested things like not texting first too quickly, not picking calls on the first ring, avoiding instant replies, not oversharing too early, not using pet names too soon, and not asking for money or support in the early stages. The core idea was simple: men are always testing, so women must stay mysterious, controlled, and slightly distant to remain “valuable.”

Many people strongly disagreed with this approach. Some argued that love is not a game with rules and that anyone who needs a checklist for dating is already approaching relationships with the wrong mindset. Others said real connection does not need calculations, delays, or emotional withholding, and that genuine interest should not be treated like a weakness.

After thinking about it deeply, the truth seems to sit somewhere in the middle, but not in the way social media usually frames it.

Where the advice goes wrong is when it turns human connection into a performance. People are not identical, and relationships are not competitions. Assuming every man is “testing” or that every fast reply reduces value creates unnecessary pressure and paranoia. It also turns simple actions like showing interest or excitement into something shameful, which is not healthy.

It also misunderstands attraction by reducing it to scarcity and mystery alone. Real attraction is not built on confusion or emotional distance. It is built on clarity, comfort, mutual interest, and consistency over time. When people start overanalyzing every text or response time, they are no longer building connection, they are managing fear.

At the same time, some parts of the advice accidentally point to real truths, even if the reasoning behind them is off. It is true that losing your identity too quickly in someone else can be unattractive. It is also true that rushing into emotional attachment without knowing someone properly can lead to disappointment. It is healthy to maintain your own life, your own standards, and your own boundaries. It is also important to notice whether interest is mutual or one sided.

The problem is not the observations. The problem is turning those observations into rigid rules.

Real relationships do not operate like instructions. They operate through communication and emotional awareness. If you want to text someone, the real question is not “will I look desperate,” but rather “is this coming from genuine interest or anxiety.” If someone does not respond consistently, the issue is not whether you broke a rule, but whether the connection is actually balanced.

Healthy dating is not about playing hard to get. It is about being real while still being self aware. You can be interested without being obsessive. You can be available without being dependent. You can be expressive without losing your boundaries.

One uncomfortable truth many people avoid is this. If someone is genuinely interested in you, basic communication will not scare them away. If normal interest pushes someone away, the issue is usually not your behaviour, it is incompatibility or emotional mismatch.

On the other hand, constant game playing might attract people who enjoy chasing, but those same people often lose interest once the chase is over. That cycle is exciting at first but rarely stable in the long run.

At the end of the day, real compatibility does not need scripts. When two people genuinely connect, communication feels natural, not calculated. You are not counting hours before replying or analysing every word. You are simply engaging, learning, and building something gradually.

So the question is not really about rules versus no rules. It is about fear versus authenticity.

Are we dating to build something real, or are we trying to avoid rejection at all costs?

Would be interesting to know how others see this.

All these rules are influenced by individual experiences. Follow your heart and let love lead

Dude, I'm in academics and born into academics. Don't flatter yourself. I have been through the entire ball of wax in that aspect. You are in academics yet the raw essence of research flew right over your head despite the clues. I won't delve further into that, your limitations would render it fruitless.

This is a discussion platform and the response to someone's curiosity on the heat in the US was duly answered and up for debate, yet you focus on AI that only helped aggregate related submissions across multiple search engines in this case. You are a real example of basic knowledge without understanding.

You are in academics yet you write so poorly and even brazenly made a spurious claim that all 22 players were black? That's a terrible mindset for academics at any level. Use the tools at your fingertips for verification and better output - this is 2026 not 1987. Learn to move on when you make no sense.

Loz...cry me a river

Unfortunately, you didn't sound like one. Your three - paragraph reply seemed more concerned with sounding impressive than with presenting a stronger argument.

Academic papers can be produced with these tools without being vague or sacrificing the human element.

That's the pressure

The pressure to continue to deliver

Amalekki:
That is plain stupid. An average educated person topically write in a more formal way than their day to day conversation.

Not everyone sit on Nairaland daily mixing standard English with pidgin.

AI is just a tool for faster aggregation of facts in this case, it did not diminish the intent of the conversation. No one is writing a term paper or dissertation here, so grading was never an expectation.

Trust me, we know the AI induced ones when we see them especially for those of us that has being in academics. It has nothing to do with mixing pidgin with English
