This is really shameful.. a country like Nigeria with crude oil deposits in abundance still suffering from global oil price fluctuations.

This country could have been a global super power in energy if not corruption. They turned NNPC to conduit pipe for looting Nigeria's commonwealth and enriching few among the elites, no progress, nothing recorded, yet government waste money on salaries, allowances etc. for the unproductive and totally useless agency.

We have been hammering on the fact that Nigeria should have at least 5 functional State-owned refineries so we can transform our crude oil raw material into finished petroleum products that we consume and require for our day to day activities.. but no, corruption and greed won't allow the so called leaders think straight.

I honestly feel these guys are dull.. far too dull to hold public offices.
Funny enough, ask them what they intend to do with all the illegal wealth they are acquiring, they won't give you any reasonable answer. The universe has a way of punishing people like this Malami, it's either they go down with one ailment or their kids don't turn out well in life.

When you see all these desperate politicians trying every means to get into office, just know they have nothing to offer, they just want to enrich themselves at the expense of others.

If Igbos continue with this mentality of always seeing themselves as victims, they'll keep being victims in real life. Dwelling on past grievances alone won't build a better tomorrow.

Don't mind them.. they won't show remorse or apologize for the gruesome killing of Sardauna Ahmadu Bello, Akintola and so many others killed by soldiers of Igbo origin in 1966.
We saw what Kanu was doing on radio biafra, asking them to kill Tinubu, Sanwo Olu, Pst. Adeboye and other prominent Yorubas. If not that majority of Yoruba conservatives rose to the occasion, they would have carried out the killings.

It's like something is fundamentally wrong with Middle Beltans.. how will you accept to join Northern Trust Fund when the Arewa forum and those in core North kept quiet while Fulanis were killing people recklessly in the Middle Belt region, destroying their communities and farmlands
What manner of servitude have the Middle Belt people subjected themselves to for crying out loud.

They should drop the Emir titles and revert to their "Etsu" which is true Nupe origin.
Hausas better wake up from their slu.mber and revert to their Hausa traditional titles.

Very good.. the nation's security apparatus should be decentralized.
The Navy and Air Force too should follow..

With Military, Police, Civil Defence, Forest guards, Amotekun Corps, etc. Nigeria should have no business with insecurity going forward.

As a man, you can't fully satisfy a woman in bed.. the earlier you know this, the better for you.
If you meet the sincere ones, they'll tell you that your best can never be their best, but majority of them fake it to make the men happy.

The husband should sit his wife down and have serious discussion with her, if not she'll graduate from se.x toys to cheating with other men.

The Judiciary in Nigeria should stop giving enabling environment to terrorists and kidnappers to continue operating freely in Nigeria.. death penalty is the ideal punishment for any kidnapper or terrorist caught.

Oyo State Government should be proactive and drag this matter up till Supreme Court.. those wicked souls entered a school, kidnapped school kids, their teachers and principal, even beheaded one of the teachers on camera, yet the Nigerian Judiciary is handing them soft landing of life improvement.. big shame on the Judiciary.

If we don't enact laws that'll make death penalty the punishment for kidnappers and terrorists, there is no way Nigeria will survive the "cancer" that is currently killing her.

You didn't give him questions ahead of time, so he can cook up lies with fake statistics.. you will hear Indonesia this, Bangladesh that.

You think it's the nonsense you people are doing with Nairaland, deleting and hiding posts not in favour of your Agulu fraud.
I'm disappointed with the owner of this forum with how bias things have gone here. Some of us were here when a particular tribe wanted to cancel this forum, even when it was hacked.
Now imagine, you write lengthy informative posts attimes, then one individual will look at it as supporting the ruling party and delete the post.

If you don't like Channels, tune to Arise TV and watch the animal scientist turned broadcaster sing your temu-messiah praises.

Isn't it obvious that the only people who rate Obi are his clannish followers?.. the South East Governors obviously see nothing spectacular in him, he achieved nothing as Governor for 8 years so why should they honour such a failure.

I'm glad PBAT or anyone from the Presidency didn't send him birthday greetings.. he should taste the bitterness he harbours toward others The 2027 elections should come quick so we can all rest.

The Federal House of Rep seat for Ajeromi-Ifelodun is the birthright of Yorubas.. will they allow a Yoruba born in the South East become councillor talk more of Federal House of Reps?

Yorubas in Ajeromi-Ifelodun, una better use una heads.

It's better they use me to catch cruise instead of me taking advantage of vulnerable people for sexual gratification....

Do u even listen to yourself when you talk??

If this girl was to be your daughter, sister or someone close to you.. Will you ask the government to let the rapist go while you pile up blames on your person

We are supposed to protect vulnerable people in the society and if that makes me a "mumu"..... Then I'm happy to be one... I rather use my skills, sense and strength to tackle people like you who enjoy taking advantage of the weak instead of myself taking advantage of weak people because I want to appear as street smart or wise

Please tell us.. how were you able to establish the fact that the girl in question was vulnerable?.
The said girl is 20 years old which makes her an adult able to make her own decisions and live with the consequences of her actions.

You sanctimonious people just have a way of whipping up unnecessary sentiments using emotional blackmail. Someone like me with very high IQ can't buy into such nonsense.

I didn't exonerate the Asaba guy in my post, infact he should be prosecuted in court, let the law takes its due course in the matter.. what I implied was that the girl might not be the person everyone thinks she is (a saintly virgin). Try to have understanding, it will help you a lot.

Dennisochampa:
What goes around comes back around...
Please save this your comment so you don't begin to look for witches and wizards tomorrow

Na your type girls dey use catch cruise.. every sensible person will ask pertinent questions about why and how the girl agreed to meet a stranger in a hotel. Where did issue of money come in if not that they bargained for sex?.
O boy, you better use your head and don't allow emotions mislead you.

Nigeria is not rich.. Nigeria is very very rich.
You made it look as if the country has no money using just "rich". This country is fvcking blessed but the leaders are not just it.

I still wonder till today what we teach in our churches, mosques etc. when people can't just live within their means, always looking to rip-off others and steal when the opportunity to do so presents itself. Is it that people don't realize that one day they will die and leave this world with nothing?. Or why are Nigerians especially so greedy to the point of amassing money into trillions when we have so many people with nothing to eat, roaming the streets with no where to turn to?.
The funniest part is that due to bad leadership, Nigerians are now leaving their own rich country, selling off their belongings to go and work as care givers, servants etc. in poorer countries abroad. No be juju be that?.

Our leaders no dey try abeg.

@OP You stated the obvious truth... what's the point of building mansions in the village where noone lives, only to get buried in the compound after years of living in Lagos, Ogun, Abuja, Kano etc.
Village people will still collect tax e.g cow, goats before burial will hold in their land

Which yeye virgin?.. the girl is most likely into hookup. She probably felt cheated, became depressed and ended her own life.
Had it been the Asaba dude gave her the complete amount they agreed on, she'd still be around looking for her next customer.

The two regions have always been allies, placing South West as opposition.. check Nigera's first and second republic, you'll see it has been Fulani/Igbo alliance while Yorubas held nothing, our people were busy forming understanding opposition till God brought PBAT to change the narrative.

It's not out of place if the two regions want to rekindle their love, just that they won't win.
Yoruba lo kan.

The fear is real.. I watched one broadcaster in one of the popular American News Channel complaining about muslims taking up all the elective offices in America.

I just hope they won't erase America's history one day and turn it to an Islamic State like they did to Iran.

Kudos to the Supreme court for this judgement.. FG should take everything away from the treasury looters

You mean to tell me that we had roads that bad, yet the Buhari govt. was busy constructing world class railway and tarred roads to Niger Republic?.
Interesting.

AMINDA:
He defeated Tinubu in Lagos and across the entire South. If that isn't political value, then what is?

Using hate mongering, campaign of calumny and religious war rhethorics doesn't count.. President Tinubu is still his father any day.

What about Obasanjo that took Yoruba turn for 8 years?.. or Goodluck "Azikiwe" Jonathan that did 6 years in office.
2027 is for Yoruba to continue.. Yoruba lo kan

That's unacceptable.. using Ministry's budget to fund renovation of Emir's palace and mosques is the height of irresponsibility and misappropriation of funds.

Liar.. you raised the allegation that you might not be alive in 2027 because you wanted your cult-like followers to raise issue of Fusho Williams to score cheap political points.
Whoever wants to assassinate your kind must be petty, of no importance.. you have no political value, just good for comic relief.

The Agulu man thinks about noone but himself.. Kwankwaso will soon get the shocker of his life when the Obi mob cheering him today start to hurl abuses at him tomorrow.
Datti Ahmed was busy running mouth like tap, thinking it was a sensible human being he was fighting for till the packaged fraud showed Datti his true colour.

I just hate that word "submissive" married guys like to hammer on.. marriage is partnership, respect should go both ways.

Saying a woman must be submissive bla bla bla is like asking her to throw away her identity and happiness just to please the husband.. resentment will later set in and the marriage may not survive.

I don't blame this lady atal, the husband probably had plans to squander the money woth his parents while the owner of the inheritance will have no say on what to do with the money. The husband is a very foolish man, let him go and look for submissive wife while the fine wife will move on with her life.

Solidex:
Dangote the Chief ripper.
Nigerians thought he was the Messiah that has come to save them from their economic quagmire occasioned by years of bad leadership and corruption, little did they know that he is the devil himself, who is determined to make fortunes out of thier predicament.
A very wicked black monopolist who doesn't give a bleep about the pains Nigerians are aready going through with his exergerated price of products, instead he is still further taking advantage of the poor masses.
Now, I don't know who is more evil between the FGN or Dangote.
As a Nigerian living in Nigeria, my advice, brace up for higher petrol price, dollar instability, and invariably the price of every goods and services .

Nah, nothing of such will happen.. this is not Buhari era.
Trust me, Dangote just dug his own grave.

He'll lose the monopoly he currently has in cement sector very soon with the new entrants coming on stream. He should start looking at other African countries to go and invest, let's see if he'll hold their people and government to ransom the way he is doing in Nigeria

All these suffering are effects of privatization of large industries previously owned by Government which Dangote benefitted from.

NO, the FG must reject this.
This is against the petroleum products pricing template

Dangote has no right to sell petrol in Nigeria using a foreign currency. The government should issue license to marketers to import and maintain the pricing of petroleum products in naira.

I was raising the alarm that Dangote doesn't mean well for this country.. if not Buhari that used CBN under Emefiele to fund his refinery project at ridiculously low FX rates, would the refinery be standing today?.
I know people like Otedola will keep quiet instead of telling the monopolist the gospel truth that he is too greedy.

This is the more reason PBAT should look into the petroleum sector and if possible concession our State-owned refineries to serious companies to run. Monopoly is never a good option, has never been and will never be an option.

God will bless PBAT for that coastal highway project to ease pressure on traffic prone areas in Lagos especially on the Island.. there are so many projects like that on the infrastructure master plan but due to politics, whoever is in power will rather neglect South West to focus on their own region, not minding the overpopulation crisis in Lagos and the suffering Lagosians go through daily.

The Agulu fraud didn't condemn the recently completed Niger bridge as waste of money because it is in his region, but as the coastal highway links South West to South South, it is automatically waste of money.

Yorubas with knowledge of how things work in Nigeria will understand that PBAT is a blessing to South West and the entire Southern Nigeria. You see all those losers ranting, they just want to enter office and marginalize Yorubas from anything development but God pass them.
