when will we have confidence with the men like these girls? Hope the guys bring us the world cup.

mikolo80:
nope it is what is
If you're worth more to him than kpekus he won't treat you like that. Fact.

Mikolo80 . we have crossed path again . lol . This time agian i be to differ. This is what happens . many people who won bets in Nigeria don't always find meaningful things to do with it other than thrift spending. The guy in question just want to live large quickly but what perplexes me is why he didn't contact his girlfriend or tell her about it. I will say the guy was carried away and their is a saying that you know a man's true character when he has hit money
cc Missali Missali

mikolo80:
Economically no
Politically he has demystify money and incumbency slash federal might


Nothing wrong with system
Everything wrong with operators


Not really


Too slowly
Thank goodness for staggered elections in osun Edo and ekiti that teaches us new rigging methods and counters faster


Yes it does

But ppl will not move if they don't have believable candidate

Good Morning Mikol80. People mhave been saying Democracy is not what suits Nigeria. That, i wouldn't want to debate now. The system i am talking about needs to be reviewed. Check out law makers salaries and allowances , check out the issues of immunity and how it is being abused. If there is no crime, their wont be a law. You are right about Buhari demystifying money transfer in govt house but of what impact is demystification if you can't put an end to it? Now, it seems the more we look the less we see. Maina, Babachir, Have they been prosecuted? Took a long time to present a budget to avoid padding yet there was padding. Mikolo80. Someone has to make a move and the power he will have is the masses' power. Tons of believable candidates out there but what happens is that the masses are divided. Whoever is there will fear us for we will make him know "masses' power"

mikolo80:
Agreed


Unfortunately, yes, not yours personally but you must have money to 'buy ' votes.
Yes all votes in all countries are 'bought' and paid for whether it's paying advertisers to promote the candidate or by providing infrastructure or outright rice sharing. Money is very important to certain extents. Even buhari needed money to get the word out (fuel)when he got 12 million talakawa votes


Nobody will try something they don't even know exists or someone that hasn't convinced them. Would you hire someone that applied for job with no CV or references for 4 years.?


Which would you hire to do surgery on you,in emergency doctor who attended but failed in school or complete novice .
This is emergency we don't want it to be worse than it is, that's why we vote but most importantly there are no better candidates (can you name any)


It's a double edged blade and right now it's not working for us


No, our macron's are busy trying to hammer. No time for public service.


Simplistic but yeah it is
The issue is how many good guys are willing. Will is the most important ingredient that is sorely lacking. None of us cares enough to do what needs to be done. We'd Rather pat ourselves for abdicating responsibilities
We don't vote (hence voting for bad guys by default)


I said money is needed
Not that you have to be rich

These ppl put in the work that money could buy
How many Nigerians are willing to asides buhari.
Not just by coming out like okotie or momdu. Candidates need a workable plan not pipe dream

mikolo80 Buhari has not done much to fix the country. The system is wrong... I hope to call your attention to one or two things here on Nairaland soon. The will not to vote and defend it is our problem in this country and funny enough , we are getting there. The last election proved that. It takes a step to change the whole thing. You will be surprised as at how we eager we are to make a move.

MhizzAJ:
Nigerians are really suffering

Miss. Where are you from?

blacknp:
We'll said you got the wrong person,blame your parents and pdp they are the ones that stole from you or at best you should have been a miscarriage or aborted at birth since life can be these miserable,did you not gather wealth or knowledge in the pdp 16 years in Power?

What a shame because honestly speaking President Buhari can't help you,there are like 140 million black faces like you in the territory called Nigeria,so what makes you think you are special?

I try hard not to dignify your quote with an answer but I couldn't sleep with the thought of your contagious stupidity infecting others. You should continue ass licking and pretend as if your life is okay, you will just continue to die in silence. Nigeria is this bad and you are asking me not to hold our leaders responsible? You must be out of your mind! The same Buhari you are defending is one who is turning a blind eye to fulani killings. Dude, it's one thing to live in hardship, it's another to be killed in one's country.

What makes me special is that i am human, a citizen of Nigeria and i have a voice unlike you who is a zombie. I hope you don't pass this to your progeny. You will doom us all.

mikolo80:
correction
2 good things came out of APC Jonathan and PDP were removed and power of incumbency has been demystified

I don't mind another president so long as its not PDP cos if they ever get into power they will never allow an unrigged election again.

Again none of the other parties have candidates that can win.
They lack money
They lack name recognition
They lack ideas
They lack conviction
All useless from Chris OKotie to uTomi to gani to Soyinka

Brilliant in their fields
Useless in politics or economics

They don't need all these to be president except ideas and conviction. Come on, are you telling me that you must have money to be a president? Why? What is the money for? To buy our votes?
. All these people you mentioned you never gave them a try and you are concluding. See people you are sure about, what have they done to Nigeria so far? I don't know how you view democracy but you are not painting it well. Democracy demands that anyone can be president if he has attained the age. That's true democracy. Can't we have our own Emmanuel Macron? Is the Nigeria of your dream not the one someone like you and myself can attain those post just by voting only?

Mikolo80, these same people are drawing us backwards. We have to do away with this mentality that the rich should be ruling us. Adam Johnson comes to mind and come to think of it, these people performed well. Mwalimu of Tanzania, Abraham Lincoln wouldn't have stood a chance going by this your reasoning.

mikolo80:
intention is not the same .even Jonathan and obj wanted to make a difference. And ppl can tell who is serious and who isn't. And most people and parties are not serious.good intentions is not enough. I want results not intentions. That's why I voted for apc to get rid of apc . Nothing good can come of PDP.

Oh oh. Mikolo80. . I can say the same, nothing good can come out of APC. I would have thought you to be an APC fan if you had not spoken against Ambode. Glad to know you are not partial. But you are still getting it wrong, so it seems. Let me summarize that Atiku and Buhari should not be an option for the presidency let's see what other parties have for us and we choose wisely. Jonathan and Obj are incomparable. While one is soft, listens to people and tries to please them all(a mistake) , the other is strick and enforces his rules. Obj would have been Nigeria's best president but he didn't do much to salvage Nigeria's situation even after 8 yrs. Presidency is not limited to APC and PDP let's vote for the best man.

mikolo80:
Name them

Name them
You can't cos they're not serious
Just there to collect inec money or for disgruntled elements to run to if they don't win party primaries


I don't know their candidate. If he can't make himself known then he's not ready.


So if I bring innoson car and Benz which will you choose.
Not only must they come out. They MUST CONVINCE voters that they can deliver. Actions louder than words
see you don't vote yet want change.

Anyway recent research shows that we don't need govt to solve most of our problems

You are assuming wrongly. There are people in other parties that wants to make a difference. It seems APC and PDP have succeeded in brainwashing us all. We are not a two party system so why base the election on both?

mikolo80:
voters are ever ready to try new persons but they don't have much choice when there are no votees to choose from. And ambode
Is just as useless as fashola. Doing just enough to win reelection but not actually his full potential to move Lagos forward. No agric or industrial investment. All na wash

.

Who says we don't have much choice? We have more than 12 political parties with different candidates for elections. Which other choices do we have again? Did you Vote Kowa party!? Did you vote labour party? Did you vote Upn and lots more? We have choices o just that we have been made to look like we don't have.
You might be right about Ambode not reaching his full potential. I actually don't like or vouch for any Nigerian politician. They should just work well is my own.

NtoAkwaIbom:
Seun
I have been a nairalander for close to 10yrs no w.
Topics like these destroy this forum which i deeply love.

God bless you for this. I wonder why Seun allows this type of trash on frontpage

Poo ! That is all she has to offer, her body. Nothing else.

mikolo80:
who free stuff Epp. Breeds laziness. But good for him winning reelection as a minority party. I agree we have the power but we cannot force candidates to run for office. We have to choose among the bold greedy ones cos the 'righteous ' are waiting for godfather to come and beg them in their bedroom. It's like a fine girl choosing an ugly husband because the fine one was too scared to ask her out

Yes you have a point here but we can try what other parties churn out. Experience has failed us in this country. We have been recycling leadership, same old leaders. We will evaluate what other parties Re coming out with and vote. APC and PDP will fail us again. In Lagos sha, Ambode is not doing bad.

So? What should we do about this?

mikolo80:
what has the accord candidate achieved?

He is loved by his people and was re-elected. Free school buses, free Christmas and salah gifts, he tars the roads, he mixes with commoners and nothing happens. He won his constituency with a wide margin. I am also trying to say we have power to vote in and vote out whoever we like.

The Sarakis own Kwara

Baba! Are your children hungry? We are hungry.
Do your children have a car? I hustle to enter Molue everyday.
At least your grand children have nothing less than 10millon in their respective accounts talk less of your own children. Me, i dey find person wey go send me maybe 100 or 200 to use add for 950naira wey dey my account.

Which kind of comparisons you come dey make? Baba, just say something else. Fix Nigeria or hand it over to someone who can. We are angry! D

SirLakes:
Hunger dey town bros n the biggest spender wins

And both parties or candidates are more than capable of doing that

The hunger wey we no go fit bear to avoid the one wey go kill us? Na this kain mentality we suppose no carry vote 2019. Many people dey regret why dem vote Buhari now. I am sure they wish they can undo what they have done. If we continue to let people know all these things we go overcome. It's for the greater good

This too shall pass. Some people are just unfortunate to be in the wrong(right) place at the wrong time. I don't like Buhari's attitude towards fulani killings. He has not come out to caution his brothers. Every now and then, i hear these Hausas say they are children of Buhari and nothing can be done with them. A fight broke out between a Niger water seller and an Hausa water seller. You need to come see this fight. I swear this people get mind for fight . They were lifting each other up, one turned his back explaining cause of the fight when the other hit him with a strong stick on his neck. He used the edge. I was shocked.
All i hear the Niger guy saying was it won't be better for Buhari and blah blah blah. This aggravated the Hausa more. His fellow Hausas stopped by and were trying to shush the Niger guy for insulting Buhari. Mind you, Insulting Buhari wasn't the cause of the the fight but i am sure the Hausa guy must have said, "nothing will happen to me, i be Buhari pickin".

Apc and pdp have nothing good to offer Nigerians. Come 2019, let us surprise these people and vote neither of their candidates. They are not the only one contesting! Yes. Our votes count. Accord party won a constituent in LAGOS, so did pdp. Who would have thought that? 2019, we have the power against these one percenters.

omohayek:
This is simply lunatic rubbish. Are Muslims getting a special lower rate for fuel that Christians don't? Do they have special queues to buy that Christians are excluded from? Are the oil distributors only Muslims? Can anybody endorsing this idiocy mention even one way in which Muslims are any better off in getting fuel right now than Christians? If the answer to all of these questions is obviously "No", why then pointlessly inject religion into a simple economic matter of demand and mismatched supply? I won't even mention the mouth-breathers who think this an appropriate time for their usual "Yoruba Muslim" crap and their moronic images with exaggerated tribal marks - those ones are clearly nutcases beyond all hope ...

As long as so many Nigerians insist on reducing all issues to tribal and religious matters, there is no hope of the country ever permanently resolving issues like this one. The long term solution to the perennial fuel shortages is to simply deregulate the petroleum sector, but how will that ever happen when everybody is busy arguing over irrelevant tribal and religious claptrap?

Well said! Please preach on brother. We are with you. I am glad to know you also reason this way. I pray and wish we will have more of this thinking from us all. Yes we can! Nigeria must be great!

nnachukz:
Now that is where our problem lies. Religion.
Now our problem occasioned by inaction of some incompetent people who specialize in blame game is now being given religious undertone to worsen our feelings.

Exactly! You spoke mind. These people will use religion to divert our attention from the real cause. Rather than face the real problem, they will bring Tribalism and religious sentiments into it. This has to stop!

biacan:
Two things are involve in this scenario maybe he has been beating her....... 1
or maybe he don't have money and as a wise girl which she is....... she made the right decision

What if it is none of the two scenarios you mentioned? See how sure u are sef.

I repeat. I am not voting anybody pdp and apc churns out this 2019. We can all do it. Can't we? They can't fight us all. We are the 99 percenter.

Unfortunately, we are not United

SirLakes:
No they won't be
Do you think any other political party can outshine both APC and PDP in 2019 elections. With the look of things, bubu and Atiku will might get the presidential ticket for their parties.

sirlakes. Can they fight us all? Isn't it the 1% against the 99%? If all local government in Lagos states counted a vote in favour of other party apart from those two. What can they do? We will wait and let the votes br counted.

Nobody can come and force me to voye whoever pdp or Apc churns out sha. Biko where are other Presidential aspirants from other parties. Apc and pdp is a no go area for me.

safarigirl:
which guys are fully dressed? The one on dreads is the Flavour of Sauti Sol, that guy is never fully dressed and same applied to this video, abi you didn't see his chest?

The guy with the last verse has his shirt opened halfway at least, with nothing underneath.

The feminine body is a marvel to many

He has his chest open but he still has a clothe on. He didn't strip down to his brief or pants. You shouldn't try to justify this thing done by women. You are making the men think females have nothing to offer than their bodies. Yes the feminine body is a marvel to many. That's why i won't allow my wife parade nakedly in front of my friends It will lose its essence of marvel if everyone has seen it.

safarigirl:
funny how you think Africans are some modest people who are always covered when in fact, the idea of wearing clothes was introduced by Westerners

Many African tribes still embrace nuditu till today, case in pont, the Zulu people. So, I don't understand how you assume Africa is a land of anything that has nothing to do with nudity

Do not confuse the teachings of Western religion as African tradition, nudity is not alien to African tradition at all, it has never been

Nobody was all covered up under the heat of sub-saharan Africa

Safarigirl. Maybe you are right... But why are the guys fully dressed and always the Ladies exposing and shaking butts and boobs? Is that what men have reduced women into? The feminism fight should be about that.

Sanchez01:
It is somehow strange when you exhibit Pan-Africanism one moment and the next you go totally contrary to what you claim you represent.

Melanine, though symbolises the deep dark African skin and pride, but then again, how nudity comes in becomes a wonder.

Perhaps Clarence didn't understand the meaning of the word, perhaps the so-called singer didn't as well. The truth is that Clarence missed this one. It would have made a whole lot of sense to have those ladies clad and modest, which would have reflected the one-time African dignity we held in high esteem rather than set them beside a sea shore like slaves that had been bought.

Videos like this one would make you question your own intellect at some point. 'Melanine' is our pride, and it is not associated with nudity in any way.

Clarence goofed.

I blame nothing but the women who allowed their body to be on display like that. That's what the real feminism should be all about, dignity of women. If nudity has been an African thing long ago why didn't our beauty pageants of then wear revealing clothes or stayed naked?

SonOfmercy007:
No sense at all in your statement, what impact have the present VP Osibanjo done in your life.Tell me

Pls for God's sake, these same people are people who have in one way or the other ruled us and made no impact in our lives. Why are we fighting for them? Remove sentiments and vote in whoever you think are good. What is Atiku coming to fix in Nigeria after all these years? Please. I beg, i am not insulting you, i just want you to think it through. Atiku and Buhari are not the only ones contesting. Please i beg. . We have suffered enough in their hands

SirLakes:
Shame, we might have to choose between bubu and this one come 2019


Chai...... Another 4 years suffering loading


Naija which way

..

Buhari and Atiku are not the only ones contesting.

Obijulius:
Headslammer. Anything associated with your religion is cursed.

Imagine if USA and Israel were Islamic nations. I repeat Mecca and Medina are terrorist breeding grounds.

Why should you care if they are terrorist breeding nation? You should be glad Nigeria isn't and wouldn't. Nigeria is not an Islamic nation. It's not! But you just want to be creating problems for yourself when they are not. Let me educate you. The person who designed Nigeria's flag is a Christian.

Dude. Just shut the hell up and bury your head in shame. A green white green flag? I am just worried about people like you who are walking this same part. You are a problem to Nigeria and the world

Obijulius:
Lols.

Power failure everywhere.

Am I the only one who thinks the Nigerian flag looks like a typical Islamic nation’s flag?

1. Pakistan Flag
2. Saudi Flag (Home of Mecca and Medina-terror breeding grounds)
3. Algiera Flag
4. Nigeria Flag (Another Islamic nation?)

U are just plain stupid. If at all you didn't create this and you saw this, shouldn't you be wise enough to know this is rubbish? Very stupid somebody! You are allowing them to use you to propagate some religious nonsense. If you didn't go to school you should ask people before you why our flag was designed that way. Must you just find religious sentiments in everything? You are a big disgrace.
