Foreign Affairs › Re: Malawi President Chakwera Concedes Election Defeat by Focusmind: 7:12am On Sep 25, 2025
See how everyone above wished if this could happen in Nigeria. It happened in Nigeria, even before Malawi in 2015. But how far after it happened? Did we fare better?Don't wish BAT badluck, it would definitely affect everyone. Take a look at the person with the closest chance of unseating BAT, can he turn around the fortunes of Nigeria? The person with that chance is Atiku o and not Obi.

Kudos to the airline - Dont pray to have a health emergency in Nigeria. You may be in an environment where the people are clueless on what to do but would rather bring out their phones and start snapping.

CPR is a very important healthcare training that people should acquire as you don't know when it would be needed. If you have an aged parents around, please learn how to perform CPR. Administering CPR could be the difference between death and life for someone in critical health condition, especially with breathing problems
Travel › Re: Massive Floods In Lekki, Lagos (Videos) by Focusmind: 8:12am On Sep 24, 2025
No wonder my town's guy, who is big on spare parts at Ladipo, opened another spare parts at Ikate axis, Lekki. The dude has seen "potential" along that axis. He earlier told me that many mechanics and car owners comes to his shop at Ladipo to pick up parts. He has now decided to bring his shop closer to that population. He deals on high-end spare parts for luxury cars.
Celebrities › Re: Sisi Oyibo Says She Is From Lagos, Sparks Heated Debates by Focusmind: 3:48pm On Sep 23, 2025
She would be accepted more as a Lagosian by Lagosians than some Nigerians from other states. This is how some Nigerians are wired about white people or people of color. In Kano, Lebanese, Syrians and Pakistanis are more respected and valued than some Nigerians that are not indigene of Kano

SeverusSnape:
Where's Reno Omockery??
Please come and defend your lords.
I am surprised that Reno hasn't said anything since this Sowere's onslaught on Wike started. Reno that always defend any prominent member of the ruling party. I guess Reno is afraid of Sowo. He wouldn't want to go to "battle" or have any confrontation with Sowo.

He would rise through the ranks to become a general in the Nigerian army. An average Northerner see the army and other public service establishment in the same way an average southerner see the oil companies as the choice places to work
Foreign Affairs › Re: 3 Russian MiG-31 Jets Breach NATO Airspace Over Estonia (Photos) by Focusmind: 4:34am On Sep 20, 2025
Do the Nigeria Airspace Management Agency (NAMA) detects when an unauthorised foreign fighter jets or plane enters Nigeria's Airspace? If a foreign fighter jets flies over the Nigeria's Airspace and returns to base, do we have the capacity to detect such an aircraft and its source origin? I always marvel at how countries detect the presence of a foreign fighter jets over their Airspace and report such. Is it what radar does or is there a special system in place to detect such?

Bleiz:
Lion is odum.
Leopard is agu.


Every other thing you said is correct.
WRONG!!!

Tiger is "Odum"
Lion is "Agu"

That's the meaning for each. But some refers to lion as "Odum" and leopard as "Agu".
Crime › Re: Two Feared Killed As Auchi Poly Students' Signing Out Party Turns Bloody ‎ by Focusmind: 6:31am On Sep 19, 2025
TheBizGenius:
I agree with you.

In modern day psychology terms, it is called the "broken windows theory", which states that if small signs of disorder (like graffiti on the walls, broken windows, trash lying around) are ignored, people will move on to bigger and more daring vices.

This is the reason why the first thing developed nations do is to make the environment beautiful as it lowers crime because the psyche of the average residents become beautiful too. Weird, I know but it's just the way humans are wired.

Thank you for observing this too.
You are intelligent!!!

I take environment seriously. My house is a small house but the compound is full of nature - flowers and plants.

See the front of the school sef. undecided

Nigeria and Nigerians do not know that environment is everything. People tends to behave in a way and manner their immediate physical environments looks like. This is the reason why those in ghettos, dirty and squalid environments behaves untrained.
Education › Re: Abia State University Hostels New Look (Before & After) by Focusmind: 7:49pm On Sep 18, 2025
Nigerian students would still mess up the place. Many Nigerians have the "I don care" attitude once they make use of public facilities. Some would poopoo in the toilet and use their dirty hands to stain the walls.
Education › Re: FG Reintroduces Nigerian History As Compulsory Subject In Schools by Focusmind: 11:54am On Sep 18, 2025
It is going to be a watered-down version that they are going to teach them. There are whole lots of divergent views on some important part of the history that may not be taught because of the divergent views held by different people regarding that particular issue in the history of Nigeria
Politics › Re: Chinese Investors Team Up On Governor Alia To Revive Oil Palm Production by Focusmind: 4:07pm On Sep 16, 2025
3 years from now, you won't even hear anything about this project again. It would die a natural death. I fear Nigerian politicians and their supporters. See how the so called investors and the special assistant were looking. Don't take Nigerian politicians serious.
Foreign Affairs › Re: Jo'burg Street That Exploded In 2023 Finally Refurbished, Reopened (Video, Pics) by Focusmind: 7:53pm On Sep 14, 2025
When you travel outside Nigeria, you will begin to understand how corruption has under developed the country in all segments of Nigeria. Our standards in this country are terribly low. Sadly, those standards are being celebrated regularly by corrupt politicians and their supporters. Make no mistake about this: our national infrastructure is nothing to write home about compared to our contemporaries around the world. I have been to Europe, Canada, US and Southern Africa, Southern Africa countries are miles ahead of other parts of Africa in terms of infrastructural development

Crime › Re: Boyfriend Of Taraba Student Found Dead Hours After Girlfriend Dies In His House by Focusmind: 9:46pm On Sep 13, 2025
I don't know why it is difficult for ladies, especially young girls to walk out from abusive relationships. Is it that they fear that they me be unable to get another man or that their friends would make mockery of them, making some if them to stay put? This is very common among young girls from poor backgrounds. The fear of losing the little materials benefits in the relationship always makes them to stay put, even when their supposedly boyfriend is a monster.

Sports › Re: Tobi Amusan Calls Out Athletics Federation Over Poor Treatment (Photos/Video) by Focusmind: 11:05am On Sep 13, 2025
Our standards in this country are terribly bad. This isn't about Tinubu or his government. It's about the lackadaisical attitudes of nigerians and their non- challant attitude to standards and acceptable standards of doing things. Sadly, this behaviour has passed down to the future generations, who see such behaviours as normal and acceptable. One of the reasons why our politicians are not taking us serious regarding provision of quality services.

Politics › Re: Deji Adeyanju Reminds Peter Obi About His Threat To Sue Him by Focusmind: 7:13am On Sep 11, 2025
Peter Obi should extend his "sabbatical " leave from public engagements, for at least 3 months. His absence seemed to have made some people jobless and the social media space, a little bit saner and quiet. It's also good for his own mental health. He should be coming and engaging intermittently. undecided
Business › Re: See 18 Richest Family-Owned Businesses In Nigeria by Focusmind: 8:36pm On Sep 10, 2025
Importation and government patronage were at the forefront of successes recorded by these family-owned businesses. That's how Nigeria billionaires are made. Made through Sole licensing, government patronage, distributorship and politics

It was not easy for me - we always quarreled until I got my mechanic to take over. That was when she became pro.
Chei, a good deal of patience is required. I just could not give that as she was also stubborn with taking instruction. Teaching your spouse how to drive is not easy o grin

At least, those appointees have a job title to attach to their names in case of future job or political appointment opportunities. Having the title, Senior Special Assistant to the Member representing Zango ward in Kafanchan local government area will look decent in one's resume undecided

Kobicove:
The lawyer representing Ali Baba during the purchase either did not do a thorough due diligence on the property or decided to ignore the pending case on it undecided
The lawyer was just interested in his service fees - fear property lawyers. undecided

That was how one was pushing me to purchase an encumbered property when I returned from UK to Nigeria in 2011, despite overwhelmingly evidence that the land was under dispute by different blocks of the same family. He insisted that we should go ahead with the purchase and that he knew the overall head of the family. My own wisdom prevailed and I bailed out - the guy that later bought the property, at double the price I would have paid, regretted it and never recovered from the loss of the property to the rightful owner.

Foreign Affairs › Re: China’s 80th Victory Day Parade Of The End Of WWII In Pictures by Focusmind: 8:46am On Sep 04, 2025
China that was defeated and occupied by the Japanese during the WWII is celebrating victory? Which victory?

The atomic bomb dropped by US had already weakened Japan and the Japanese surrendered, withdrew their forces from China, Korea, Vietnam, Philippines and other part of South East Asia

It is like France celebrating victory over Nazi Germany, when France was under full occupation of the Nazi Germany from 1941 to 1945

It was not until the allied forces, led by US liberated France in 1945 that the French started fighting again when Germany was already weakened
