Ban kwa.. how many people can afford the big bottle of dry gin?

2Radii:
Bro, I cry everyday for the situation of my country...

Bro it's disheartening to say the least, can we just stop voting for once and retrospect??

It's really disheartening.. some people carry firarms to kidnap people in large numbers and demand for ransom, those that pay get released while those that can't pay get killed, yet the people committing these crimes walk free.. and we say we have a government.
How do they want law abiding citizens earning legitimate income to feel?. There is nothing to rejoice about the government of the day.

I'm not happy with the situation of things in the country, especially security.. you can't expect people to give their best in a country where their security isn't guaranteed.

In design, it's safety first.. same thing in an ideal society, it's safety and security of citizens first before you start talking of economy, investments etc.

Is this how we'll continue with Nigerians getting kidnapped, some killed day in day out?.. while the useless leaders we voted for especially those in National Assembly continue to fold their arms and do nothing?
@OP If something is not done about this worsening security situation, forget it this country is gone.

I don't understand.. when did Africa turn to a country that these arrogant migrants feel they can talk down on?

Make una no worry.. Trump is coming to deport y'all hateful asses back to Africa.

This man ought to be in sober mood.. why is he granting interviews and forming celeb over a tragic incident that happened to his child?.

The kind of parents we have nowadays ehnn.

Food items are cheaper in the North compared to South.. the cosmopolitan nature of Lagos and several rick folks in big vehicles have made market men and women wise up and start selling at higher prices..
@OP How do you intend to transport from Kano to Lagos? Is it by air or road?. Hope you've factored-in the cost of long vehicles, fuel, driver salary, egunje that your driver will drop at some checkpoints etc.
Do a feasibility study first before you'll spend money and won't get profit.

Go and run HIV test.. it could also be as a result of reaction to either water or soap.

@OP Try as much as possible to reduce the intake of these precessed drinks.. a lot of foods and drinks in cirulation are either fake or expired. NAFDAC and co. need to sit up.

The kidnappings are even under-reported.. I have colleagues that have lost one or two family members to kidnapping and gruesome murder in Abuja which media didn't report.

We need to stop all these face-saving political statements and step up security in the country, not just FCT.

Their puNana go hear am.. title should read "h0rny bandits abduct 30 women in Katsina".
Thank God say I don commot for the State.

Lucky Ivory Coast.. dying minute goal

Winneeerrr!

Eagles don win.. semi finals here we come.

Angola.. ile ya.
Bye bye

Ori e pe.. keeper with doings.

4 mins to go. Eagles should park bus o.
Nothing goes in.

Investor137:
They just want Angola to win by all means, that’s a clear goal not offside, that’s a free kick for crying out load everyone is supposed to hustle for the ball, this guys don’t want Osimeh to shine in this AFCON

I also feel it should have been a goal.. the offside no clear.

These Angola players are long o..

Super Eagles coasting to victory.

christistruth01:
We were trying to explain to him that Nigeria’s trade with Niger is insignificant compared to the trade with the rest of West Africa

Don't mind the guy.. they want to continue enriching another country with Nigeria's commonwealth while Nigerians especially those in the oil-rich Niger Delta region continue to suffer untold hardship, oil spillage, pollution, environmental degradation. etc.

Nigeria's wealth will and must be used to develop all regions in Nigeria including SW, SE, SS, Middle Belt, NW etc. first before any foreign country will benefit.

IamAtikulate:
Tinubu didn't stop any war with Niger. ECOWAS force was already on standby. If the North, their senators nd governors had not rejected it, Tinubu would have invaded Niger to flex his muscle.


Geopolitics is all about interest. What leverage does Nigeria have to bring Niger to the table? Nothing, except mass deportation of Nigeriens from Nigeria and they have several deterrence:

- Complete damming of the Niger river

- Closing their airspace against Nigeria in and out bound flights

- Sabotaging of the Nigeria - Morroco gas pipeline

- Flooding of our northern borders with terrorists.

- Military cooperation with the Alliance of Sahel States

Tinubu destroyed our biggest leverage by shutting our borders against them.

I had to check your moniker to see where your loyalty lies..

Niger republic is a landlocked country..

Niger republic has nothing as far as sensible Nigerians are concerned.. we don't need a first class railway to Niamey for terrorists to be coming into Nigeria in fully airconditioned trains..

Niger republic is not of economic importance to Nigeria.. they rely on our ports and electricity, we don't rely on anything from Niger republic..

You are crying now that Benin republic sabotaged Nigeria.. why didn't you call Buhari to order when he shut Benin republic and the other West African countries out of Nigeria?.
You expect them not to find alternatives or forge alliance with other countries?

The same way it's paining you people that Nigeria shut border with Niger republic is the same way people in the Southern parts weren't happy when Buhari shut out Benin republic.

unclejb2:
They just placed an order for more arms for Fulani Bandits and Boko Haram. 75% of whatever arms Nigeria purchases, end up in the arms of violent and terrorists groups.

I doubt that's ever going to happen.. not under the watch of a Yoruba man.

Victory at last..
May the Almighty God continue to bless, guide and protect our Armed Forces. Amen.

2024 is the year that Nigeria will defeat terrorism in all its forms, everywhere.

Una wan give Sadiqi high bp for.Dubai

Imagine asking Waziri to deputize Obi.

@OP If truly you want to be objective, you'd praise President Tinubu for preventing breakout of war with Niger when ECOWAS issued joint security statement. Mali and Burkina Faso would have joined with Niger to face Nigeria, then we'll have to battle economic challenges, internal security challenges and regional armed conflict with neighboring countries.. It would have been a disaster.

You should also factor-in the fact that Benin Republic is a small country able to tackle their internal issues unlike Nigeria where we play politics of religion and ethnicity.
Nigeria will bounce back and I see Niger coming to mend fences with the giant of Africa in the near future. I wonder why most people can't see the strength Nigeria wields in Africa and globally.
If only we could weed off the bad elements within us and elect the right leaders, I'm telling you Nigeria will be a world power and a force to reckon with on the planet.

State governors should start utilizing the security votes they collect from the centre to secure lives and properties of those in their respective States.. enough of all these boju boju, playing to the gallery.

You can't be a governor and be pocketing billions of naira meant for security only to come out and be shedding crocodile tears on TV. Let's face the fact, these guys should stop embezzling security votes for their states and stop buying mansions, estates etc. abroad while their people continue to get killed.

It's the effect of tribalism and nepotism.. everybody is doing "my brother, my sister" up and down while there is serious fire raging the country. It's now I believe some Northerners actiually brought in foreign Fulani herders and militia into Nigeria in a bid to oust former president GEJ. The ones killing people all over the place can't be from Nigeria, likely from neighboring countries bordering us in the North..
It's one Northerner heading Immigration back then that allowed them in unchecked, undocumented with no profiling. That's the problem appointing saboteurs ro head critical agencies involved with national security.

Imagine a whooping 223 million population in Nigeria yet no provision for jobs and employment of youths.. we are focusing on trade only when we are supposed to be the most industrialized nation in Africa catering for the needs of other African countries..

The manpower is there, mineral resources plenty but very few industries.. China leveraged on her population to become a world power and industrialized nation.. The crooks in politics here are busy stealing and looting like it's no man's business.

@OP The thing is that you'll miss Nigeria and Nigerian foods a lot when you leave.. all these our native soups, onions etc. that we get easily in the markets are overpriced most times abroad. You go chop burger, you go tire.

I go use that 7.5K chop better chicken for KFC in Aminu Kano Crescent, Wuse 2.
@OP Is it everytime you eat out?.. you no get kitchen??

Seems they don't know the plight of the common man.. security convoy and escort dey lorisirisi, so they can talk, but their distant relatives and family members, dem no dey consider.

My own concern is why NNPCL bought 20 percent shares in a private refinery that will depend on US crude oil to function.. what is wrong with our people especially these Northerners that pack themselves into NNPC and other petroleum agencies.. Se opolo yin o sise ni?

Na so quota system wan finish this country..

It's actually easy to spot difference between real and fake.. Obi's fake PR is no longer working.
The OP for example can see through his deceit. Charity begins at home, let him visit victims of attacks in his home state before running to Jos with cameras.

Politicians are there sharing national cake, feeding fat with their families while gallant men facing bullets and all sorts in the bush earn meagre pay.
Which way Nigeria?
