GREAT News of the day.

We are so happy to hear that. .
Let the music play on and on and on.......

I doubt if your life has any focus. You are always commenting on every post. Aren't you ashamed of yourself?

Do you even have any meaningful life outside nairaland?

MRSoftapples:
Lol yeah i understand your point but any confirm guy won't complain of 6k if spent on a lady without demanding for sex..

What is your own definition of a "confirm guy"?

SEONaijaExpert:
Timi Frank only talks too much. That's all he does.

Attack the messenger because you hate the message. That's your modus operandi at BMC, right?

kindnyce:
Ex cultists sowore.
I hail thee

You said Ex-cultist, which means he has repented. He has my vote

4601CE:
Kikiki
Gej is the worst and most useless President Nigeria ever had

According to BMC-inspired wisdom

tayomohammed:
Saraki is fast losing even before the election. People are afraid of associating with him because of his betrayal tendencies. He has even lost his senate reelection in Kwara. See protests upon protests in Ilorin against Saraki recently. Ilorin people are tired of him because he has brought nothing to them other than poverty. He only milks the poor state dry through his stooge. Wonder shall never end, a serial looter wants to lead the country. Mark my words, it is difficult for any candidate from the north central to become president in Nigeria. The reason is that they are of different tribes and religions.

Say anything to console yourself. Your social media display of emptiness doesn't change a thing. So, your BMC intelligence deceived you that saraki has lost relevance in kwara? Stop fooling yourself

post=70312287:
SARAKI IS GONE!
Analyzing his body language for the past few days, We see a man who is giving life a final push for survival.
Akpabio's decamping is one of the strongest blows that have destroyed the foundation he has been standing on.
Akpabio is very rich, and he is a political principality that no A list politician has summoned the courage to criticize or mock his defection.
Every senator is negotiating for 2019, there is a limit they can follow Saraki. They won't follow Saraki at the expense of their 2019 interests.
He doesn't trust the Senators in his camp again, he is now running from Minna to Abeokuta, this move is a move of desperation and drowning man. If he is in charge, he won't make such moves within days.
Dogara is finding it difficult to decamp, because it is near impossibility for him to fly PDP in Bauchi and win his constituency, with the current sentiments on ground.
You would be surprised that many PDP Senators are negotiating with APC in secrets.
Saraki doesn't have the support of the power that be, his camp has been compromised by their 2019 selfish interests.
The INEC budget is putting him under pressure to reconvene, if not his foes are fast convincing Nigerians that he is the one on their way of progress.
With what happened to DG DSS, nobody in government would want to associate with him in secret again, he has lost a big grip.
He has lost every negotiating tool for soft landing. With or without him, the power that be can hijack the clerk to reconvene using INEC budget passage as excuse, to flush him out.
We see the end of Saraki, not just at the Senate, but also in Kwara.
He is really in a tight corner!

For the other ones, they are nothing but BUNCH of losers.
Sai Baba.
Sai Buhari.
GOD BLESS OUR PRESIDENT.

Dumbness is the common factor among buhari supporters. .

post=70311683:
Lol , it's good you know he's better than you in life already without anyone telling you. Hahahah .
You only fight and hate who is way above you in every facet in life.
You are just starting, you ain't seen nothing yet.
Another ban is waiting for you like the one you got 2 weeks ago on top matter.
Hahahahaa

Fight and hate? Hahahahaha. So, showing you how ignorant and stupid you sound now translates to hate in your mentally backward dictionary? You are just as dumb as I expected, walahi.

For your information, snakes of that size swallow humans. Only a fool will first think of saving a snake instead of killing it.

And do you realize the cost of snake antivenom? When next you see a snake, don't kill it o. Be saving it. If you are fortunate enough not to be swallowed but escaped with a snake bite, no one will tell you that you are an idiot after they tell you the price of snake antivenom at the hospital.

tafabaloo:
Whatever you may say to defend Saraki, the fact remains that he can't be trusted .

He betrayed his party like Jacob did to Esau in the Bible. If he knew he was popular and had done his home work well, he should have contested in a fair play like Dogara and not acquire the senate presidençy through a deceit by conceding the deputy senate President seat to the party he once condemned and called names.

A thief and traitor like him ,who set ministry of finance office ablaze ,when EFCC came calling, is not fit to lead this nation !

Which man would put his beloved wife in the care of her ex whilst away on a journey ....even an ode (silly) man won't venture into that .


I don't think Nigerians are ready to go through this road again .

Saraki can't be trusted especially because he has left APC, abi? Would you have written this if saraki is still in the APC?

ProWalker:
This is the kind of man anyone will cherish as a deputy! Dependable, loyal, trustworthy and active

No, this is the kind of man anyone will cherish as a president

deomelo:
[s][/s]



Not interested in your meaningless ipob rant..

Now, your mental sickness is confirmed. You are so mentally sick to think anyone not swallowing your bullshit must be an ipob member

Can you please educate me on why most buhari supporters are senseless people?

ashjay001:




If his predecessor, had done half of what PMB is doing, we won't be having an APC presidency

Now, can you clearly state exactly what good things buhari has done or done better? You claimed, so the onus is on you to prove.

brainhgeek:
I agree I don't know what I am saying but not until you provide proof sir. Your claim could change the way the world of zoology see snakes especially the African species

Or you want to claim that Washington Post is also lying?

deomelo:
lol @ pained ipob yoot..

If you still need someone to educate you that Buhari is mentally dull, then you need a serious mental examination yourself.

CriticMaestro:
Who pays both all them? Federal or state? Nincompooop

You should ask yourself if the nefarious activities of FSARS differ from that of SARS before calling that person an unprintable name.

ashjay001:
True statement? Toooooo sloooooooooooow


But, means well

Believe me, I doubt the "mean well" aspect of your comment.

24hoursreporter:
Ordinarily, the primary function of Nigeria Police Force is to serve the community, protect the innocent and ensure that there is liberty, justice and equality for all. Regrettably, these functions have become counterproductive since the emergence of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS).

It is still a puzzle how SARS became a nightmare to innocent Nigerians they were supposed to be protecting. As a matter of fact, if you live in states like Lagos, Delta, Edo and Portharcourt you will understand what I am saying.

Once you are riding a good car, wearing a nice wristwatch and using an iPhone, you are automatically labelled a Fraudster(Yahoo boy). It is actually disheartening how these officers of the law robbed innocent people of their hard earned money with accusations of money laundering.

Every freelancer, mini importer, bitcoin trader and other internet hustlers are constantly harassed and robbed for being successful. The most annoying aspect of SARS operation is the fact that they believe everybody doing online business is a fraudster.



There are several Nigerians who work for remote companies overseas. In other words, they work from their home while their employers are overseas. Nigerians are real-time hustlers and they are always the best in any freelancing platform you visit.

Does it mean that there are no police in the US, China and the UK where we have most of the top tech billionaires around the world? If police disturbed these tech billionaires during their early days of hustling, they would have been no Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, Larry Page, Jack Ma, Jeff Bezos etc.

The best thing that has ever happened to Nigerian youths in this administration especially the internet entrepreneurs is “The Overhauling of SARS”. The acting President has done well.

Without much ado, lets quickly take a look of the impact the overhauling of SARS will have on Nigeria Digital Economy.

How Overhauling of SARS Will Benefit Nigerians

Despite what some people are saying about the decision to overhaul SARs, it will still benefit Nigerians in many ways. Some of these benefits are;

#1. Employment

One of the ways Overhauling of SARS will benefit Nigerians is that it will create more employment opportunities. Ordinarily, there are several Nigerians out there that are doing legit hustling online. But most times, they are disturbed by SARS and some of them even lost interest in the whole internet thing.

However, with the recent order to overhaul the police outfit, Nigerians that have lost interest in freelancing and other internet hustlings will definitely rekindle their hustling spirit. This means that they will be employed once again.

#2. More Business Opportunities

Mini importers can now do their importation and delivery without stress or challenge. They will make more profit without incurring unnecessary cost trying to pay SARS officials.

#3. Free Movement

This is the aspect that makes sense the most. You can now freely cruise your car around the city without being embarrassed by SARs.

#4. Absence of Fear

Guys will no longer be scared of going outside their houses. As a matter of fact, you can now move freely without your phones without anybody trying to open it and search what is inside.

#5. Fashion

Yeah, the fashion lovers will also benefit from this overhauling. You can now dress the way you like decently without you being harassed by the so-called SARS officials.

Bro, I don't think "overhaul SARS" means "end SARS"

Wishing buhari would stay away till year ending

SHUT UP AND QUIT D SCENE. STUPIDITY RUNS IN UR VEINS. IGNORANCE SURROUNDS UR ACCLAIMED NOLEZ AS FOOLS DIE SEVERAL TIMES B4 THEIR TIME. PRIDE THAT IS EMPTY IS NOT SEEN IN PUBLIC GLARE...

Are you trying to expose how your parents guzzled on stupidity on a daily basis? Or maybe you want to tell is the story of your homegrown thoughtlessness and emptiness? Or is it about the generational curse that have characterised the useless life of everyone ever sired in your accursed home? Please kindly clarify.

In our darling country, people doing this will be more concerned for some snake pepper soup!

How do people eat this coily and weird thing?!

If a snake ever swallows or bites you or your family members, you will never think of saving a snake when you see one. Be pretending there as if you are of a higher breed. Blind soul.

arherfish:
Show us prove of snake swallowing human.

I hope you'll stop spitting stupidity after checking this link.

brainhgeek:
Hian! Let me clear the air. No snake on record is big enough to swallow an adult human. Don't be fooled by bloggers and unconfirmed stories. Most evidences are 'my father said....., my grandpa said......' Who has ever seen one with his/her eyes? Stop believing the stories bloggers and photoshopers are selling to you. It is what they want you to believe anyway.

You don't know what you are saying bro. A snake swallowed one of my lecturers in the department of geology when he was searching for fossils. I'm talking about 2003 before the wave of blogging swept the entire place.

You will know better if a snake ever swallows your family member

Stycon:
Learnt from this piece and wanna share it with you guyz. I hope you find it useful too.

1. First come, first served

The proper way to write this expressions is "first come, first served," because the people in the scenario will be served in a specific order. The idiom is often mistakenly written as "first come, first serve."

2. Misplaced apostrophes

Adding "apostrophe 's'" to a noun indicates possession. A common area where people misuse apostrophes is with last names.

If your last name is Johnson and you want to invite people to a party, the invitation should read: "The Johnsons invite you to a summer soirée," not "The Johnson's invite you to a summer soirée."

3. i.e. and e.g.

These two abbreviations are often used interchangeably, but their meanings are different. I.e. is Latin for id est, which translates to "that is." Thus, i.e. should be used to clarify something.

It can informally be replaced with "in other words." "He is training for the marathon before work, i.e., he puts in over a dozen miles each morning."

E.g. is short for the Latin "exemplī grātiā," which means "for example."

"I've recently started cooking with local ingredients, e.g., tomatoes and corn."

4. Whet your appetite

This common phrase is often incorrectly written as "wet your appetite." "Whet" means to sharpen. Thus, "whet your appetite" is correct, as it indicates that you're sharpening, or prepping, your appetite to enjoy a meal.

5. Invite/invitation

Formally, "invite" is a verb, and "invitation" is a noun.
However, the English language is constantly evolving, and Merriam-Webster now allows for "invite" to be used as a noun as well.

Thus, both "I haven't responded to her invite yet" and "I haven't responded to her invitation yet" are correct, but the former may annoy some of your more grammar purist friends.

6. Pique your interest

People can often distinguish between the homophones "peek," which means "to look," and "peak," which refers to the top of a mountain or a similar shape.

However, "pique" is used in the phrase "pique your interest," because "pique" means to excite or energize. Thus, if something "piques your interest," that means that it excites you.

7. Brands and 'they'

A brand is a singular entity, thus is takes the pronoun "it." "Kleenex is my favorite brand because they have the softest tissues" is incorrect, since Kleenex is a singular noun.

The sentence should read, "Kleenex is my favorite brand because it has the softest tissues."

8. Piece or peace of mind?

As "peace" and "piece" are homophones, or words with different spellings and meanings that sound the same, be sure to use the correct spelling to be clear on your meaning. "Peace of mind" refers to serenity. To give someone a "piece of your mind" is to harshly express a concern.

9. Then/than

Another classic case of word misuse is between "then" and "than."

"Than" indicates comparison. "I have more time than you do."

"Then" is an adverb used to indicate time. "I had a meeting, and then I went to lunch."

10. Due diligence

To do your due diligence on something is to do a very thorough job. However, "due diligence" is often mistakenly written as "do diligence."

"He exercised due diligence in preparation for the case" is the correct, as it means that the subject went to great lengths to get ready.

How will you say "almost everybody" makes the mistakes you listed? How can somebody mix "then" with "than?" Because you roll with dumb people most times doesn't mean almost everybody is dumb.

APC, the Harbour for Corruption.

Gkemz:
If you are new or not too familiar with a particular location in the west and the place becomes strange to you, do not ask questions even to that person who looks so innocent. And by the way don't trust them that hunt for skulls to use for ritual. Else you'd be directed to where you'll be butchered. Trust no one in the waste, sorry i mean west.
Use your Google map.

What if you find yourself in owerri, the headquarters of ritualised?

pocohantas:
Let's not be quick to demonise our MIB. They're not all as bad, as we paint them, especially on matters like this. Most Nigerians see police officers and get angry immediately . They know this, they're humans too na. Approach them courteously, take a quick glance at his name and call him by his name, politely ask your question[s]. They'll give you a step by step direction, na you go weak sef. They are usually happy that one Nigerian likes them .

OP, using landmarks helps too. Is there a church close by, a hospital, university, a house that stands out...?etc.

Police will like you because you be woman. I'd rather ask Google Map. It has never failed me

Be careful young man

It’s not easy as you thought

Igbos are everywhere doing legitimate business

We should be careful

It won’t spell well if the bubbles is burst

If I may ask you, shameless old man, is cattle rearing on the road, other people's properties and on people's farm your own idea of "legitimate business?"

Learn to use your brain, old man.

FLASH: Acting President Yemi Osinbajo has directed the Inspector General of Police to overhaul the management and activities of #SARS with immediate effect. #EndSARS

You may not be the most beautiful one ever seen, but you look like the mature one worthy of knowing.

Looks like osinbajo knows what a president should do more than buhari
