Education › Re: Schoolchildren On A Boat Ride Without Life Jackets (Photo) by Focusmind: 3:08pm On Apr 11, 2024
Flame333:
there's a guy on Instagram that said the death came as a result of coalition between junior boat and another boat..

however my question is why on earth will the boat collide with another boat, is it that the guys on junior boats we are not looking or what distracted them....?
It seems you have not entered boat. The boat drivers are not different from danfo drivers in behaviour and taking of hard substance. They play a lot in water while conveying passengers, splashing themselves water and doing acrobatics style. I went to taqay Bay and saw how some of them were driving passengers across the water. So unprofessional and unconcerned about safety.

I love watching lots of lions prides sightings. Lions lives is something else
Politics › Re: Nigerians Criticise FG Over Public Holiday Extension by Focusmind: 7:11am On Apr 11, 2024
Abeg, leave us to enjoy the holidays in peace. The stress in Nigeria is too much grin

Those that commute to work everyday, especially in Lagos would understand. But for those of us that works mostly at home, it provides an opportunity to catch up with friends again without waiting till weekend.

I agreed, our productivity is low. But reducing the holiday times will not automatically increase the productivity of the country.

Just imagine!!!

He should have been serious with that boat driver. This is what some Okada guys used to do then. They will carry someone and be driving recklessly. Once I caution you and you didn't hear, I would just come down.

Same thing happened when me and my team wanted to go on picnic to taquay Bay, the life jackets they brought were torn and I told them I wasn't entering the boat till they provide a good life jacket. Safety first!!!

See the title sef, "U.S based Nigerian " nurse. So, If it was from a "Nigerian based ", it won't trend.

So, they didn't consult the rain makers in their village to hold back the rain?

Lack of maintenance culture.......after the renovation, what happens next? The decay starts again for the second round.
Politics › Re: Emefiele Arraigned In Court, Pleads Not Guilty To Charges by Focusmind: 10:18am On Apr 08, 2024
Nigeria's courtroom always looking like trash!

See how the room is looking despite billions being pumped into the judiciary.

We should start getting certain things right in this country.

Anytime I see other country's court rooms, it looks standard, depicting the nature of the country and how it is govern.

Our courtrooms looks so mushroom

Pat081:
if it is Wednesday that means the fasting is 30 days but if it is Tuesday that make it 29days only God go save us
Ok. Good. I was simply being "selfish" and looking at how it would benefit me and my holiday plan undecided
Politics › Re: Eid-El-Fitr: FG Declares Tuesday, Wednesday Public Holiday by Focusmind: 9:02pm On Apr 07, 2024
Kai, why Tuesday and Wednesday? I was expecting Wednesday and Thursday. You know, we usually dash ourselves Friday as a free day, so that the holiday would run from Wednesday to Sunday undecided
Politics › Re: Atiku Knocks Tinubu Over Secrecy In Lagos-Calabar Highway Project by Focusmind: 8:52pm On Apr 07, 2024
These are some serious points and allegations. Sadly, Nigerians don't ask questions and can defend the indefensible because of ethnic and tribal affiliations. People are up there attacking Atiku instead of looking at the allegations he made. Atiku is not a Saint neither but did he made valid points? yes! That project would never get to Calabar. That was my first thought when Umahi muted that idea of Lagos to calabar coastal road, probably to confuse the citizens from asking pertinent questions. Pictures of the commencement of the project flooded the social media and people went into frenzy. But are our leaders sincere with the project and appropriation of public funds relating to it? Only time would tell.

Nigerians are funny!

People are here lambasting GWR. These guys works with verifiable data to safeguard the integrity of their award.
Yes, your grandfather in the village may be 120 years. Is there any incontrovertible record to show that?

If i talk now, some stupid ignorant people will come after me.
Our standard in this country is terribly low. More terrible is the what the citizens perceives as development
See what someone had the courage to post on internet as a sign of good works by the Governor.
That road was simply painted with Asphalt paint.
Foreign Affairs › Re: US Secretary Of State Blinken Says Ukraine Will Be NATO Member by Focusmind: 9:09am On Apr 05, 2024
Funny NATO!
You are waiting for the war to end for Ukraine to join NATO.
Why not admit Ukraine now and support them with boots on the ground to fight Russia based on NATO's principle that an attack on one is an attack on all members?
Ukraine will never be a NATO member. It is an invitation to world war 3. They should stop deceiving Ukraine.
Foreign Affairs › Re: Scary Moment As Bridge Refuses To Collapse During 7.5 Mag Earthquake In Taiwan by Focusmind: 6:31pm On Apr 03, 2024
helinues:
Please stop, your Bible couldn't even detect what caused earthquake until the scientist came. Give credit to the engineer who built the bridge instead of crediting one God who couldn't divert the disaster.

Earthquake is mostly caused by movement of tectonic plates. The collision of two plates will definitely cause friction hence the earthquake. After earthquake, followed by Tsunami.

Why una no fit pray to that God to stop all those natural disasters. The Whites who brought the religion have moved pass it. USA and Canada are now country of Transgender, Gay, Lesbianism, LGBTQ, BLA BLA.

Is it God that's still instructing the Israel to conquer more land as God na real estate agent?

Scottish prime minister was interviewed sometimes ago to differentiate between who a man supposed to be and a woman, she couldn't instead just saying rubbish as she's one of the promoters of LGBTQ. Those are part of those who forced that same religion on us but they don't longer believe in it.

Religion na scam
You just wasted your time explaining science to a brain-washed religion fanatics. He won't understand the explanation you put up there. Religion has done incalculable damage to psyche of Africans, especially, Nigerians.
Properties › Re: The Oldest Estate In Anambra State Capital Awka(udoka) by Focusmind: 5:17pm On Apr 02, 2024
I give it to Anambra people. When I went to Udoka estate for the first time in the mid 90s just after my secondary school, it was scanty, with uncompleted buildings and empty plots with rusted gates. I was there in January 2023 and couldn't believe my eyes. Everywhere was built-up with modern houses and partly tarred roads.
Foreign Affairs › Re: ISRAEL Accepts Responsibility For The Accidental Killing Of 7 Foreign Aid Worke by Focusmind: 5:10pm On Apr 02, 2024
Righteousness2:
Our Condolences to the nations and families of the deceased aid workers of WCK..
May God ALMIGHTY Comfort them.

ISRAEL did its investigations as usual, discovered this time she was responsible and came out boldly to accept responsibility for its error.

That is the Hallmark of a responsible Nation.
That is the Hallmark of a nation with high standard of Morality and Fear of GOD.
That is the Hallmark of a nation that places high value on lives , Unlike the Terrorists who have zero value for the lives of even their own.

GOD Bless the State of ISRAEL Forever.
Zukwaanu ike and stop embarrassing yourself and your family
Politics › Re: Chukwuemeka Ojukwu's Will: Bianca Wins In Court by Focusmind:
Nawao!

In as much as I support widows inheriting their husband's properties, it should be noted that Ojukwu have grown up kids, that are almost at the same age with Bianca. They are entitled to the share of their late father's properties. Bianca should not be making claims for all the properties for herself and her own children. Her comments that the court has Validated who are the real children of Ojukwu calls for concern. May be, Ojukwu didn't recognise his children from his former marriage.
Travel › Re: Man Shows The Outdoor Camp Occupied By Hundreds Of Nigerians In Dublin (video) by Focusmind: 4:36pm On Apr 02, 2024
Stupid youtuber. These are natives that are on drugs, possibly. There is no way majority could be Nigerians. The youtuber is just looking for attention and traffic. This tells you the extent some unscrupulous Nigerians could go to tarnish the image of the country on the altar of their personal gain .
Health › Re: Kenyan Man Commits Suicide After Lover Cheated On Him (photos) by Focusmind: 11:46am On Apr 01, 2024
Hmmm! Men are becoming emotionally weak these days. It is not that men should not experience low moments in their lives, but taking matters of relationship too serious is simply too dangerous. These are one of the things I need to inculcate in my kids - both boys and girls. Do not be too serious with relationship matters, abeg! Be "selfish"!

Always celebrating mediocrity in this part of the world. It is not about Anambra, that's my state. It's about Nigeria and Nigerians as a whole. Our standards of governance and perception of what sustainable development and governance should be, are terribly low.

Nobody knows - cancer just comes - same way people have other categories of cancer. Most times, by the time it could be detected, it has degenerated into a metastasis situation.

Pancreatic Cancer is the worst form of Cancer - my own relative lived just four months after being diagnosed of the disease. It was fast and resulted in multiple organ failures.
Foreign Affairs › Re: British Army Lifts Ban On Soldiers Growing Beards by Focusmind: 7:07pm On Mar 29, 2024
Ojukwu rebelled and started growing beards. He allowed the ranks and file of Biafran army to do the same. But none could muster the courage to do the same.
Politics › Re: National Grid Collapses Again by Focusmind: 7:54am On Mar 29, 2024
This grid should be decentralised. It is even a concern that Nigeria still operates a centralised grid system that poses an energy risk. I don't know why we like centralised system in all spheres of our national life. A North East grid collapsing shouldn't affect power supply in South West, and vice versa.

SMH.....What they did was wrong but why shut down the business? What's the essence of shutting down a business that's creating value? They should have been fined, instead. If it wasn't Gbenga Daniel 's daughter, would they have been shut down? Selective justice everywhere

Go to Owerri, even in inner streets, most old buildings are being remodeled into 1 or 2 star hotel.

I am not excited - Young people seems to be ruthless in looting than their grandpas

This one with two wives, you can imagine. I am not against young people being in political leadership but they have not proven to be any different from their older ones.

Why did he stand to snap picture with the victim? cry cry cry cry

No respect for the girl's privacy

The way we do things in this part of the world is despicable - from the so called learned people to the uneducated ones in the street.

See him, the human right activist, posing like a cultist, to snap picture with the victim, whose privacy should be uppermost in his mind. But no, social media validation is more important to him than the privacy of the minor.

My people, this judgment is very DANGEROUS!!!

Someone the Supreme Court, the highest court in the land, has been described as an "IMPOSTER", erroneously received pension as a former governor, was let out of the hook by a lower court!!!

Lots of interpretations would be given to this judgment when people gets something for which they are not qualified for, and for which they never applied for, but got it in "error".
Education › Re: 2022 Medical Students Intake By Geopolitical Zone by Focusmind: 11:26pm On Mar 26, 2024
At the end, 70% of them are leaving the country. It doesn't benefit their region or the country. Nothing in this country is geared towards the overall benefit of the country because of bad leadership that has diminished any sense of patriotism among Nigerians. Our education system should be purpose driven for the overall development of the country. Sadly, corruption and nepotism will continue to embolden people to ply their trades outside the shores of the country.
