Foreign AffairsRe: 14 Killed In Saudi Aramco's Helicopter Crash (Video) by Focusmind: 9:35am On Jun 29
Emeskhalifa:
14 people inside one helicopter??
Does copter carry that number of people?
Yes, mainly Transport helicopters, which can carry up to 40 people

It is used mainly in oil and gas to airlift workers to offshore facilities and during emergency and rescue operations.
RomanceRe: You'll Find Love Without Money. But Only When You're A Boy by Focusmind: 12:21pm On Jun 26
I will have to digress a little bit o undecided

If you are a struggling young man, dont follow the Op's story

Focus on your job hunting and how to scale on whatever you are doing

Relationship derails and distract people, especially when focus is required

I am not saying you should NOT date a girl if an opportunity present itself but dont be consumed in maintaining a relationship when you have a PRIZE you are pursuing, which is your career

However, if you are already made, you can go ahead and accommodate relationship and the distractions that comes with it.
CrimeRe: Police Intercept Truck Carrying 47 Sacks Of Camouflage & Drugs In Lagos by Focusmind: 9:08am On Jun 24
Nigeria is a BIG crime scene

Both the citizens and the government are in the crime together

Citizens committing crime against the State, the State committing crime against the citizens
CrimeRe: Police Arrest Abia Man For Beating A Woman Over Pot Of Soup by Focusmind: 11:44am On Jun 22
Na the woman go still go bail am undecided

I had seen it happened with the domestic abuse section of police in Lagos

The woman was practically begging the DPO to allow her husband go home that night

Police was insisting on detaining him but she was practically crying, begging the police to release him.
PoliticsRe: It Will Be Over For Tinubu, Momodu Outlines Atiku’s Strategy For 2027 by Focusmind: 10:25am On Jun 20
I wonder how the opposition think that they would be able to unseat a determined incumbent. Someone that "won" against all odds in 2023. Now that he is in power, with full control of executive and judicial powers, you want to unseat him. undecided
Foreign AffairsRe: See Why Trump Is Pushing For Iran signed agreement by Focusmind: 11:09am On Jun 15
Iran should gladly accept this proposal if it is what is on the table

Trust me, the Iranian economy would boom beyond measure, with billions of dollars pouring in and goodwill

Nuclear weapons wont provide food on the table of the people. Economic power remains one of the most powerful means of economic development and emancipation.

Switzerland, Luxemburg and Scandinavian countries are not nuclear power but enjoys the highest quality of living in the world.
CrimeRe: RCCG Pastor Gbenga Sanny Kidnapped In Ondo, Wife Escapes Attack by Focusmind: 6:04am On Jun 10
These kidnappers sef! They will always allow one person to "escape" to go and tell the story of the kidnapping and solicit for funds for family members held in captivityundecided

This has been the usual way of operation.
PoliticsRe: Kwankwasiyya Dismisses Reports Of Kwankwaso Threatening To Quit NDC by Focusmind: 8:34am On Jun 09
Obi is not a politician

He seems to unduly overrate himself.

Nigeria's political system does not follow natural order.

You simply has to crawl before you could be positioned by the system for something higher

Obi and his supporters, have not fully grasped this order due to emotions and sentiments, which do not have effect on electoral outcomes in Nigeria

Kwankwaso is not in this alliance. His end game is 2031

Obi left a party, where he stood a better chance to achieve his aim, just because he wanted the ticket at all cost

Atiku and ADC would have provided him with good platform in other future elections if he had teamed up with them.

He would rather allow himself to be deluded thinking that 2027 will be same as 2023.

The goodwill he enjoyed in 2023 has evaporated and I doubt if he could garner the kind of support he had in 2023

See the way the owners of NDC, Dickson and others are embarrassing, dictating the power within NDC.

i see him getting frustrated within NDC before the election proper, except if he is there with Kwankwaso, to play the BAT card, which some have alluded to in the past
PoliticsRe: “Stop Killing Our Children” – BringBackOurChildren Protest In Toronto Canada by Focusmind: 9:57am On Jun 08
A movement-like- protest is becoming impossible in Nigeria

Everything is politicized and tribalized.

People would profile the main leaders of the protest and determine if it is based on tribe.

The bond of unity has been broken in Nigeria, and the politician can go at any length to tag any protest against any government as a form of "ethnic protest".

I have left Nigeria's matter to Nigeria and focusing on myself.

You have to be selfish in this country and leave Nigeria to sort itself out.

Both Nigerians and Nigeria are not willing to do the needful

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

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.
