CrimeRe: Gunmen Attack Ben Nwankwo's Convoy, Kill Police Officers, Others In Anambra by Focusmind: 9:35am On Jun 03
Being inside a Hilux or an SUV in Anambra is becoming extremely dangerous, especially when travelling at night
PoliticsRe: City Boy Movement Distributes Free Sanitary Pads To UNIZIK Students by Focusmind: 11:08am On Jun 01
Obedients should allow people make their choices.

There is nothing wrong with what the "city boys movement" are doing

You can set up your own charity and promote the cause of your own candidate.

PulaPower:
I won’t be surprised if that picture you displayed is a Benin/Togo/Ghana women…

Those people sabi arrange things for head like..
Definitely Togo, Beninoise or Cameroonians. A typical Nigerian hawker lacks the patience to come up with this kind of thing.

Same is applicable to masonry works. Their jobs always stand out. Call a Nigerian, they would want to do anyhow anyhow and run away
TravelRe: Bayelsa Airline Makes Maiden Flight by Focusmind: 5:22pm On May 26
Sadly, people are here praising the governor. Something that has no direct benefits to the average Bayelsian. Nigerian governors and waste of scarce public funds are 5 and 6

PoliticsRe: Atiku Unveils Economic Rescue, Security Plans At ADC Screening by Focusmind: 10:27am On May 21
Atiku is still serious with this his presidency contest?

Since the opposition are fractured, PBAT is certain of victory.

Obi and Atiku have failed to shelve their individual ambitions and come together, PBAT is going to be returned, with even a higher margin of victory.

Politics is not by emotions - you have to be strategic

If you think that you are too popular and sure of victory, you would be humbled.
PoliticsRe: Desmond Elliot Rejects Lagos APC Primary Result, Vows To Challenge Process by Focusmind: 10:22am On May 21
See how PBAT supporters and Obidients are united in their hatred for this guy

For once, I have not seen any dissenting voice on this Desmond matter

He seems to enjoy great deal of HATRED from all sides of political divide undecided

Ironfaceman:
State capture in progress. But God will laugh last.
Which God? God has no business with Nigeria's affairs.

Nothing is divine in politics - everything boils down to actions of men.
PoliticsRe: Crowd Turns Out For Solidarity Walk At Kwankwaso’s Kano Residence by Focusmind: 10:14pm On May 18
I wonder how NDC intend to fund their campaign.

2027 is not 2023. APC, controlling up to 30 states are ready to go for broke.

Obi had tremendous goodwill in 2023 and received secret fund from some governors in 2023.

Wike had already said it that Rivers state is a no go area.

APC will not allow the little fairness seen in 2023 to happen in 2027
CelebritiesRe: Tioruju Mondusi: My Wife Confessed That 2 Out Of My 5 Children Are Not Mine by Focusmind: 2:21pm On May 18
Offpoint1:
How married men don't know their biological child right from the day they were born or after a year baffles me.

Your biological child should carry your features or features from your family.

Even if they carry the mother features, some of your features will be visible. Nature isn't stű}pid
It also baffles me

The very day my kids were born, i mediately saw my and family features in them - very easy to see

Check the nose, the baby's yawning style, ear, lips and hair strands, especially the foreheads.

Get your own picture when you were born and compare it with your newly born baby

Men that are not involved in the growth of their kids are the people that likely gets this kind of surprise package from the wife.

When you are involved in the life of your child, it becomes easy for you to notice certain behavioral traits.

I bathed my kids when they were small and I talked to them, carried them, looked them face-to-face and i was involved.

There is no way you will not see your features or that of your family

Once you do not see any, you raise alarm and quietly do the DNA if you want.
EducationRe: Daniella Owoeye, UTME Top Scorer: I Used AI To Summarise Notes, Studied Hard by Focusmind: 1:40pm On May 18
Mehn, see intelligent responses and answers

Even me got some takeaways from her responses.

You don't use social media to wind down the brain after reading or doing something mentally tasking, you walk around.

Going to social media as a relaxation mode keeps putting the brain into constant pressure, as it continues to assimilate lots of information

I had to download these her responses for my daughter

Brilliant chap!

Security personnels may be setting some of their colleagues up for attacks by the terrorists.
PoliticsRe: Amaechi Once Threatened To Leave Because ADC ‘Pampered’ Obi - Bolaji Abdullahi by Focusmind: 9:30am On May 15
Obi seems to be one of the most important politicians in Nigeria

He is being attacked by the government for not having him in their folds

He is being attacked by the opposition for not having him in their fold

But can he go it alone?
BusinessRe: Femi Otedola Buys London Mansion For $72 Million by Focusmind: 3:42pm On May 14
I hope the property acquisition is for capital appreciation and not just to waste money on a house that he is not going to stay.

Nigeria's rich men and the gulf rich men have the same thinking - acquisition of luxury houses in London, which the crown court would later confiscate as proceeds of corruption and return it to His Majesty Revenue and Customs
PoliticsRe: NDC Reps Meet Obi, Kwankwaso, Dickson by Focusmind: 1:44pm On May 14
Kwakwaso just dey behave as if his mind no dey for this alliance

He looks like someone that is being forced into this marriage

He is after 2031, knowing fully well that the NDC is the path for him to secure some southern votes, especially, SE and SS once 2027 is over

Guy man wan use Obi secure 2031 but sadly, Obi and some supporters are not getting the script.

Deep down him, he is aware that winning 2027 is a herculean task but he has to just do it for his own 2031

He believes that the the Kwakwasinya/Obidients movements would be a big force in 2031 when power moves north

Nothing you wan tell me....He is trying to secure his 2031 undecided

He and Obi can still alternate their positions in 2031 if they fail in 2027

PoliticsRe: Rivers 2027: Gov Fubara Scales Through APC Screening, Cleared For 2027 Polls by Focusmind: 8:39am On May 10
Tinubu can never sacrifice Wike for anything. He needs the man to "hold and deliver" Rivers for him during the presidential elections.
HealthRe: Fitness And Gym In Nigeria And The Rest Of Africa by Focusmind: 12:56pm On May 08
I have all the things I need in my house for workout:

Dumbells for triceps and biceps
Weights for push ups and upper body
Resistance bands for upper muscles
Sturdy chair for dips
Stationary bike for aerobics and cardio workouts

I regret not starting out on time. I look healthier and confident as a 46 year old man than I was in my 20s and 30s.

I have observed that some men in their 40s that workouts looks healthier and athletic than men in their 20s and 30s that don't workout

PoliticsRe: Peter Obi & Kwankwaso Get Their NDC Membership Cards by Focusmind: 10:43am On May 04
MadPolitician:
Kwankwaso will mess up things.
He is not the kind of politician that Obi can work with. He has zero regard for the rest of Nigeria outside the North.
Kwankwaso is a very hawkish and sectionally minded politician, whose only stake in Nigerias politics is to fight for the fulani/north. I personally don't want him at the federal level under any platform. Research on that guy and all you see will be his endless tribal outbursts.

Again, Kwankwaso is very haughty. He thinks of himself as the biggest name in Nigerias politics even if his influence begins and ends in Kano where he did relatively well as a governor. I am not sure that the two have agreed on who should be the leading candidate. I think that Kwankwaso will struggle to acvept the role as Obis deputy. In his base instincts, he would see himself as the best candidate and Obi his deputy..., and he really means it..
Whether he accepts or not, do you think that Obi/Kwakwaso or Kwakwaso/Obi ticket can dislodge PBAT? The biggest threat to PBAT is Atiku/Obi ticket but since they could not agree, PBAT is retaining his seat.
PoliticsRe: ADC Coalition ‘Train’ Still Moving Despite Obi, Others’ Exit — Paul Ibe by Focusmind: 9:40am On May 04

I am very suspicious of this Obi and Kwankwaso moves

Are they working for the big masquared?
BusinessRe: UK Watchdog Fines Guaranty Trust Bank £7.6m Over Money-Laundering Controls by Focusmind: 9:27am On May 04
All these UK regulators are usually mean when it comes from banks that are located in developing countries

Just imagine slamming a fine of 7.6m pounds on GT Bank for regulatory infractions. Something they cannot do to their own local banks.

If we do same to any of their entities here, they will report to the PM and the house of commons and those guys would put pressure on our government to rescind the decision.

The fine was quite excessive in my own opinion. undecided

These regulators would always find a way to make money for His majesty revenue and customs

Atiku is coming to NDC! You must contest the primaries with Atiku undecided
PoliticsRe: Obi, Kwankwaso Set To Join NDC Next Week by Focusmind: 1:59pm On May 02
Obi and Kwankwaso are BAT's mole in the opposition. These happenings have long been planned. NDC will be like Labour Party of 2023 that divided PDP votes. NDC will divide ADC's votes, there by giving the ticket to PBAT.

I wonder how obidients and Kwankwasiya expect to defeat PBAT in an election that is organised by PBAT. Atiku would be extremely disappointed in Obi.
CrimeRe: Nigerian Man Convicted Of Rape In The UK, Lawmaker Seeks Death Penalty (Photo) by Focusmind: 2:47pm On May 01
These British lawmakers are funny. The guy is British and not Nigerian. See how his nationality was mentioned as if it was because he was a Nigeria. The British system and society has built their value system around him.

If he was just an immigrant that migrated to the UK, he would have lost his deportation case. He won the right to stay because he was born British and grew up British.
PoliticsRe: Atiku Invited To The U.S. To Speak At Congress by Focusmind: 12:59pm On May 01
It wasn't the US Congress that invited him. He was just extended invitation by a low ranking member of the Congress, who may likely lobby for Atiku, to discuss informally with some members of house committees and others on matters of urgent public importance
Nairaland GeneralRe: Egbin Power Plant Shuts Down After Contractor Dies During Underwater Repairs by Focusmind: 5:44am On May 01
bentenny:
This is why most experts go with their team and ensure some of them are stationed where the operational switch is to ensure nothing is touched during their repairs until they are done!
Rip to the contractor!
This is the best standard of practice. But some contracting firms in Nigeria are NOT compliant with standard safety procedures for their staff in out-of-station work.

During my NYSC, I worked with a power generator sales and service firm. A company called for the maintenance of armoured cable that lead from the genhouse to the main building. We were three that went from the firm for the repair.

I was with the main engineer that was doing the fixing, as I was supporting him with his tools. The other guy was stationed at the change over room. After sometimes, the security gate man of the building that wasn't around when we came, returned and was heading to the change over room to change to NEPA, unaware that work was going on, as there was light in the building next to the one we were working on. But our third that was stationed there shouted at him that work was going on,on the other side of the building.

Imagined if our third person wasn't around in that changing room, the security guy would have powered on the building why our main engineer was still holding and working on the armoured cable
PoliticsRe: Kwankwasiyya Visits Obidient Headquarters, Signals 2027 Collaboration by Focusmind: 9:27am On Apr 30
Under which party? undecided

There will not be any opposition contestant in the next year's election, except if the Supreme court decides otherwise.

Sowere may likely be the only major opposition contestant against BAT next year.

I doubt if the Supreme Court's judgement on the ADC matter will be different from the judgements delivered by the lower court.

The best strategy is to move into other parties before the due deadline.

Kwankwaso would be regretting his exit from the NNPP

He would have use NNPP to accommodate ADC members and build strong leverage.

I am sure if Kwankwaso was still in NNPP, he would have asked the ADC guys to move and the ADC would have adopted his party without any issue.
CrimeRe: ASP Nuhu Usman Arrested For Killing Mene Ogidi by Focusmind: 12:05pm On Apr 29
Very barbaric from that Usman of a guy

I hope he did not do that to shield some powerful interests or to cover up an even greater crime

The manner and speed with which he fired at that guy, someone that did not pose any immediate threat, was suspicious

I hope the police inspector is not part of kidnapping syndicate, fearful that the victim may spill the beans.
