Foreign Affairs › Re: Canadian PM, Justin Trudeau To Announce Resignation Today by Focusmind: 1:13pm On Jan 06, 2025
The heat was simply too much for the young man. The pressure just became unbearable. Congratulations to the anti-immigration opposition party as they may likely win the next election. Canada is set to tighten immigration rules. The bar for PR is going to be out of reach of many. I foresee lots of international students returning back to their respective home countries after their studies as their wont be any PR.
Politics › Re: Tinubu Arrives Enugu In Style (Photos) by Focusmind: 9:17pm On Jan 04, 2025
SalamRushdie:
This Tinubu is already calculating his 2027 electoral map , beleive it or not this state visit has every thing to do with that map
The governor is a very good friend of Wale Tinubu, the Oando guy. The two has been into oil business for long and this has brought Mba and Tinubu together in the past. Trust me, Mba is heading to APC. He has been avoiding PDP and hardly participate in any crucial gathering of PDP. PBAT has seen in him a dependable ally. The governor has also benefited greatly from Tinubu's Lagos boys as his business is booming in Lagos, thanks to Tinubu and his boys. The governor is in the good books of the Lagos political establishment.

When did UNN became the premier university?

Rádaràda. Gbogbo ọ̀yà ńpe ara ẹ̀ l'ódù.
....Then, ask questions when you don't understand things. UI was still a college of UCL, an arm of the University College London as at when UNN was established, making UNN to be the first locally owned Nigerian University to be established.
Sports › Re: CAF Made Me Believe I Won - Achraf Hakimi by Focusmind: 7:56am On Dec 22, 2024
Isa Hayaouta, the former CAF boss would have given that title to Hakimi. That man showed Nigeria pepper. Very biased against Nigeria's interests during his time as CAF boss.

Dead on arrival!!! You guys had the best of chances in 2023 and squandered it. Even Buhari threw the contest open, yet, you guys failed to read the message. Tinubu till 2031!!! undecided

People should always utilize their opportunities once it comes. Do not procrastinate or wait for the right time, as the right time may never come.

He should know that once a person is declared as president- elect, his status changes. DSS and SSS takes over the protection of the person. Whether you were with him an hour before the declaration or not. If you were with him an hour ago and left him to attend to some other things and they declare him the winner of the election, you wont be able to access him again. He would be under the State's protection. Same is happening to Trump in US. He is under full US State protection and not easily accessible as it was before the elections.

Travel › Re: Dont Come To Canada - It Is Japa To Sapa - Many People Are Living In Poverty by Focusmind: 7:36am On Dec 15, 2024
In as much as Canada is tough now, I wouldn't use this guy as a yard stick. His appearance, poise, professionalism and demeanour are already against him. My person is there now, working in a mental home shelter. At least, the person is seeing close to $4900 every month and the person has been there just a little over a year. It was tough as more than 300 applications were sent before one clicked. Canada is tough now, but if you have funds to sustain yourself while you job hunt, no problems. But if you don't have money to sustain yourself while you navigate through the job market, na OYO!!! Please, go with sufficient funds and never rely on working to pay your school fees. Jobs may not come for the next 9 to 12 months.
Politics › Re: ‘ Terrorism’: Finland Freezes Simon Ekpa’s Assets by Focusmind: 7:20am On Dec 15, 2024
The ignorance of some of the supporters of this man back home is legendary. Terrorism has taken firm root in the SE and these ignorant supporters are still supporting and defending him and his nefarious activities. You can't move freely in a prado or land cruiser SUV in some places in SE and some people are happy with it like that. Some areas are becoming largely ungoverned as police and security agencies have abandoned their positions because of regular attacks on them. Those places have been taken over by terrorists, settling scores and virtually became government onto themselves and the people within those localities
Foreign Affairs › Re: South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol Impeached Over Martial Law Crisis by Focusmind: 12:30pm On Dec 14, 2024
Democracy in some of these South East Asian countries is the best. It could be extreme, sometimes and they don't joke with the rule of law. China, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, and even Malaysia. The Western Democracy is learning democracy and rule of law where these countries are. Their institutions are extremely strong and accountable. Do anyhow, you see anyhow undecided
Crime › Re: Lagos Bizwoman, Oluremi Phillips Jailed 17 Years For ₦‎57.6 Million Fraud by Focusmind: 8:59am On Dec 13, 2024
Fear "brief case" businessmen and women.

I can bet that the so called Omritas Energy is a one room office, where the woman uses her connections to get and execute contracts.

This is what happens in Nigeria with brief case companies. Some of them are also fraudulent. She would rather stay the two years in jail than to pay the N57m restitution.

If the court decides to wound up the company, they will find out that the company has no assets, except the certificate of registration with CAC. As the company is a limited liability company, the woman's personal assets may be protected, as the woman is seen as different from Omritas Energy in the eye of the law.
Politics › Re: Budget Error: Okpebholo Video Not Doctored - Arise TV Counters Reno Omokri by Focusmind: 1:08pm On Dec 12, 2024
People are here cursing Reno without understanding the interplay between making controversial comments and making money off social media. Reno knows what he is doing and the controversies keep making him popular. Guy is cashing out big time.
Politics › Re: Okpebholo: 'It Is Confusing Me' Edo T-Shirt (Photo) by Focusmind: 12:36pm On Dec 11, 2024
Don't blame him - blame the Nigerian electorates or those who selected him. The signs were there during the campaign when he could not say anything correctly.

I was shocked that some people were defending him, that he does not need to be sound in reading and writing to perform as a governor.
Foreign Affairs › Re: Israeli Warplanes Pound Syria As Troops Advance Deeper Into The Country by Focusmind: 3:29pm On Dec 10, 2024
Syrians are going to miss Assad. The West and their media machines that were pushing on and cheering the rebels when the uprising started are no where to be found. Their voices have gone mute. Syria is done for good!!!. The rebels will bulkanize the country with warlords ruling its own fiefdom. A destabilised Syria is good for both Israel and Turkey. Those that supported the rebellion against Assad will not offer any help. The coming weeks and months would be interesting to watch.

This is Iraq/Libya all over again....

The military has been dissolved and they have left with all their weapons to use for both crime and insurgency.

Arabs doing Arab things,
The disbanded former regime fighters/military will regroup to mount another opposition to the current victorious rebels/terrorists and the cycle continues. Syria is done for good!!!

You think that the shia Alawite tribe will watch while the Sunni terrorist/rebels reclaim everything? undecided undecided

Syria will be worse than Librya - no be Arabs again. undecided
Foreign Affairs › Re: Syrian Rebels Have Toppled President Bashar Al-Assad by Focusmind: 3:32pm On Dec 08, 2024
I hope the country rises from the ashes of this war. The faces of these rebel leaders look more like terrorists than freedom fighters. I hope they will all come together, under a common leadership and united armed forces, to rebuild Syria. The next few days and months would be interesting to watch. No be Arabs again. undecided
Foreign Affairs › Re: Damascus Has Fallen: Syrian Rebels Breach Assad Defenses To Enter Capital. by Focusmind: 8:25am On Dec 08, 2024
Syria will be another Libya. There will not be any centrally - recognised government. Each faction of the rebels/terrorist will be controlling its own fiefdom. The West should know that the fall of Assad will spell doom for them in later years. Refugees and migrants from Syria will continue to flood Europe.
Travel › Re: Air Peace Shares Water In Disposable Cups by Focusmind: 9:07pm On Dec 06, 2024
This OP must be a JJC. This is a common trend among airlines. You just want to trend but I am happy that your ignorance was squarely addressed by others. Even in US, environmentalists are urging airlines to reduce their waste and most have started giving out water in disposal cups instead of giving full bottles to people. There is nothing wrong with it. Coffees are also shared in disposal cups in airlines.

LP was and is Tinubu's Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV), which purpose was achieved. undecided

One of the best kept secret of the 2023 presidential election.

Obi is APC's beautiful bride but people wont understand.

Very soon, Tinubu would invite Obi to Asorock to "advise" him on how to chat the way forward for the nation

Leaving Nigeria

Larfarge staff welfare is about to take a dip, we all know what the Chinese, Lebanese and Indian run companies can do interms of welfare compounded with a Nigerian HR manager shocked

Even basic PPE kits workers fit no see

You sabi the format. Once a Western firm exits and sells its stake to Chinese or Indian firm, the entire business model dynamics changes. Those guys are adept at working in a challenging markets like Nigeria. They would import their own unfriendly labour policies with a mean and ass-licking Nigeria HR to drive the obnoxious HR policies. But give it to them, they can turnaround a moribund firm to a profitable one but at a great costs to staff, customers and the environment.

Travel › Re: Libya Repatriates Over 150 Nigerians by Focusmind: 5:28am On Nov 27, 2024
Women and children!!!

Some single Nigerian ladies will go to Libya and come back with children from different men. Some deliberately got pregnant to get sympathy from rescuers and NGOs from EU. This one has backfired. Imagine coming to Nigeria with kids with no sources of livelihood in Nigeria, other than the usual transport fare given to you to go back to your State.
