PoliticsRe: My Husband Briefly Believed Aso Rock Rumors I Planned His Demise - Aisha Buhari by Focusmind: 9:40am On Dec 16, 2025
I hope that those with the rumors mill of a Sudanese man will rest now undecided grin grin grin

The fact that some people believed in that cloning story shows the extent humans could be brain-washed with a narrative told to buttress a point

Up till now, people still believed that Buhari died since 2017, and not recently as was meant to be believed.

Let me ask the question: Was Buhari clonedhuh grin grin grin grin grin

I need an answer from different point of views
BusinessRe: Petrol Price War Turns Dirty As Dangote Attacks NMDPRA Boss by Focusmind: 10:27am On Dec 15, 2025
Dangote don turn to whistle blower!!! undecided Interesting

Dangote should be given the percentage of the money to be recovered by EFCC from the Farouk guy, based on the whistle blowing act
Foreign AffairsRe: Identities Of Australia Shooting Attackers Confirmed(photos) by Focusmind: 10:00am On Dec 15, 2025
I saw the video where the shooter ( the father) was demobilized by a man and the shooter's gun collected. That man was the real hero that day. If he had not collected that gun from the man, he would have done more damage.
PoliticsRe: General Gowon's Wedding In April 19,1969: Aerial View Of CMS Marina Church by Focusmind: 9:40am On Dec 15, 2025
I was even in front of that Marina cathedral this morning to fix the screw of my wrist watch that damaged

Sadly, that place has become another mushin, with all categories of hawkers, sellers, shoe-shiners and Danfos doing their thing.

Central business districts, all over the world, are tourists attraction, but our way of life in this part of the world has destroyed that CMS cathedral's appeal as a tourist destination. We need to get our transportation system right in this country. The informal transportation system in this country is making mockery of any attempt to build a lively and decent city, with environment appeal.
PoliticsRe: Soludo To Commence Dualization Of 33 - Nkwelle Road Onitsha ( Photos & Video) by Focusmind: 7:37pm On Dec 14, 2025
I am even surprised that the road hasn't been constructed until now. Peter Obi, Ngige, Obiano and now Soludo. One of the most important connecting roads in onitsha, linking the new onitsha to the old onitsha. That road should have been dualised by now, with traffic lights, pedestrian bridges and flyovers at each junction to control the flow of traffic. Anambra should replicate the lekki - Epe express corridor in that onitsha "33" axis. I understood that the road is a federal road, nothing stops the governor or previous ones from doing it and follow up for refund. The road is too important. Precious man-hours are wasted on that road, with attendant petty robbery on motorists at night
PoliticsRe: Tony Okocha visits Governor Fubara, presents him the APC membership card (Pics) by Focusmind: 12:49pm On Dec 12, 2025
Wike may not like these defections - But I think that Fubara's decision to defect is to his advantage. He wants to know his "enemies" from within. Being on the other side wouldn't help his case. He is now the official leader of the APC in the state.
PoliticsRe: Bandits Kill Mu’azu Zannan Gwashi After Collecting ₦15M Ransom by Focusmind: 5:04pm On Dec 11, 2025
If he had bullet wounds while in captivity, there was no way he could have survived.
PoliticsRe: FEC Approves Construction Of Bank Of Industry Headquarters At Eko Atlantic City by Focusmind: 8:20am On Dec 11, 2025
Misappropriation of funds remains endemic in Nigeria. BOI already has a functioning huge office in Marina, Lagos Island. Why spend huge funds building another? Go to UK and see government offices in buildings constructed in 18th and 19th centuries, still being used. We like demolishing and restarting in this part of the world.

Come to the old GRA Port Harcourt, some of the iconic gothic colonial buildings have been demolished. Sometimes, you may not need to demolish an old iconic structure. You simply need to upgrade it and still retain the old structure to tell the story and history of the building. Anyway, everything is about contract in Nigeria - whether it makes sense or not
PoliticsRe: Oyebanji Makes History As First Commercial Flight Lands At Ekiti Airport by Focusmind: 8:09am On Dec 11, 2025
ufotunang:
.. and this politicians take airport construction very serious and the construction of the airport will be completed in a fast pace and immediately.. because these politicians need the airport to move and travel to other states..they cannot use the roads due to the bad roads
Well said!!!

They can't use the road again. They are all building airports in their respective states, even if it is viable or not.
PoliticsRe: Oyebanji Makes History As First Commercial Flight Lands At Ekiti Airport by Focusmind: 8:22pm On Dec 10, 2025
Ekiti Airport and Ebonyi Airport would be competing for an Airport with the lowest passenger traffic. The airport is just there to service politicians and high networth individuals.
PoliticsRe: Babatunde Fashola, Back To Law Practice (Picture) by Focusmind: 1:24pm On Dec 10, 2025
It is even good for him - represent FG in some high-ticket transaction and cash out big time without any fear as a public servant.

Nigeria is a "contract haven" and anyone with strong ties to the power would always cash out on some humongous and inflated payments on contracts and services.
CrimeRe: Dangerous Tattoos Discovered As Police Arrest Ugochukwu Uzor by Focusmind: 12:38pm On Dec 10, 2025
Nigeria's Police PROs and their press releases. The way they word and issue statements could be funny undecided
PoliticsRe: President Tinubu Meets With Osun APC Aspirants (Pictures) by Focusmind: 12:32pm On Dec 10, 2025
It seems that Hope Uzodimma has an office at the villa. undecided

He is permanently at the villa - the same way he was permanently at the villa during Buhari's time

The man seems to have some magic he is using - he seems so "dear" to the past and the present president, that even Buhari visited Imo state multiple times.
PoliticsRe: Theophilus Danjuma Celebrates His 88th Birthday Today by Focusmind: 3:24pm On Dec 09, 2025
This man bankrolled Obi, thinking that Obi would win. Him and Obasanjo mobilised huge resources for Obi and unfortunately, it didn't go their way. If Obi had won, he would have been the de facto kingmaker.
TravelRe: Heavy Gridlock On 3rd Mainland Bridge — Total Standstill Near Iyana Oworo by Focusmind: 9:36am On Dec 08, 2025
Thank God I followed Apapa to Island this morning instead of third mainland, which has been my usual route
CrimeRe: Police Parade 38-year-old Lady For Burning The Hands Of 7 Year-old-girl In Imo by Focusmind: 2:46pm On Dec 06, 2025
See her wicked face kiss undecided

Why didn't she take the little girl as her daughter?
PoliticsRe: Obi: ADC Coalition Shaky Over Unresolved Zoning Arrangement by Focusmind: 9:30am On Dec 05, 2025
Do you have what it takes to challenge Atiku?

it is going to be an open contest, which you may likely not win.
Foreign AffairsRe: Putin Arrives India In Style - Gets Royal Welcome (Photos) by Focusmind: 7:43pm On Dec 04, 2025
Indian go soon collect from Trump

Make Modi no cry when Trump starts to show him pepper

India is a very poor country o

They cant do without the West

Always running away from the country to the West to constitute nuissance undecided
PoliticsRe: Distribution Of Campaign Vehicles: Profound Insensitivity & Abuse Of Trust — Obi by Focusmind: 5:25pm On Dec 04, 2025
Obi should leave Nigeria and Nigerians to suffer the way they are suffering. His statement would be viewed negatively by supporters of the government. Sometimes, I wonder if it is worth it speaking for Nigerians and fighting for Nigeria. He should also know that he is part of the political class that have messed up this country
EducationRe: Oborevwori Approves Automatic Scholarship For Best Graduating Students by Focusmind: 12:59pm On Dec 04, 2025
egbedox:
Exactly my thought too.

While it's commendable that we are promoting our own educational institutions, how about elites sending their own children outside the country to study? What message is that communicating to the people?
Foreign Universities gives one an unmatched exposure. Sadly, most Nigerians and politicians would travel abroad, school there and come back to continue in their old ways of doing things.

The exposure one gets by studying abroad, interacting with students from other parts of the world, new environment and opportunities are endless.
PoliticsRe: My Views About President Tinubu Changed After Supreme Court Cleared Him - Reno by Focusmind: 12:19pm On Dec 04, 2025
I hope PBAT is not planning to give him the El Rufai treatment undecided

Using the NASS and DSS to disqualify him and watch if he would continue with the new love for PBAT or he would move back to his default setting and start abusing PBAT.
EducationRe: Oborevwori Approves Automatic Scholarship For Best Graduating Students by Focusmind: 12:12pm On Dec 04, 2025
They would not like it undecided

They would have preferred foreign universities in the US or UK or any western country than local universities

Most brilliant Nigerians are always unwilling to further their studies in the Nigerian universities

Most hustle for foreign-based scholarships to study in a foreign university.

Even me sef, I wont be favorably disposed to furthering my education in Nigeria after graduating with First class
PoliticsRe: New Hilux, Hummer Bus Distributed To States For Tinubu's 2027 Campaign by Focusmind: 4:16pm On Dec 03, 2025
Some people are enjoying in this country. After the campaign and the election, the buses and the SUVs would all disappear.

Someone I know got a clean sienna campaign vehicle during Jonathan's time, under the TAN group, headed by the late Ifeanyi Ubah.

If you find a way to join the core team of BAT or Atiku campaign train, you will definitely clean out.
PoliticsRe: Convoy Of Nigerien Troops Entered Nigeria To Fetch Water – Military by Focusmind: 10:04am On Dec 02, 2025
I hope they did not enter to drop arms to Boko fighters.

I don't trust all these Sahel countries at all - Chad, Niger, Burkina Faso and Northern Cameroon
EducationRe: Dr Festus Anagwu Achieves Breakthrough In High-Performance Polymer Research by Focusmind: 9:52am On Dec 02, 2025
Nwaikpe:
Nigerians go just wake up one day, dey hype their own research.
Very unethical


The research has not won any prize.
Has not received any external commendation,
Has not been published in a high-impact journal,
Has only gathered about 22 citations since 2022,

Yet you come out hyping it as a "breakthrough."
It is all part of "academic positioning". The guy may have sponsored this write up sef.

Most academics now are fond of hyping any research they are into just to see if they could get in more funding.

They work hand- in -hand with some PR consultant to project their on-going research as the next thing that would happen to mankind after the slice bread.

I contemplated doing same while in the UK in 2019 but the cost of projecting my research areas by the PR people was way above me.
Foreign AffairsRe: 11 US Warships And 15,000 Troops Now In Caribbean As Venezuela Tension Escalate by Focusmind: 5:13pm On Dec 01, 2025
See how Ukraine caged the almighty Russia and made them to look ordinary and incapable of helping their allies. The West deliberately used the Ukrainian war to keep Russia busy. You hardly see or hear Russia getting involved in any other external matters except their current war with Ukraine. Russia would have issued a rebuke to US in this confrontation with one of their dependable allies, Venezuela, if not because of their current military campaign against Ukraine.
PoliticsRe: Bandits Kidnap Boy, Teenage Girls From Gidan-Bijimi Kawu, FCT by Focusmind: 1:45pm On Nov 27, 2025
These kidnapping is now being turned into an avenue to embarrass the government and make money.

This has become a money-making business for some people.

I am sure the kidnappers still allowed one or two girls to "escape" so that it would be seen as a kidnapping.

They are sure of receiving ransom. I hope families are not complicit in this type of kidnapping?
PoliticsRe: Massive Turnout In Osogbo As ADC Concludes Osun Federal Constituency Tour by Focusmind:
"IMPRESSIVE" indeed undecided

A nation that is ravaged by poverty will never be short of sub-humans, that will occupy space in any political rally, in anticipation of crumbs that may come out of the event.
PoliticsRe: Bandits Disrupt A Church Crusade In Agboda, Nasarawa State by Focusmind: 1:17pm On Nov 25, 2025
It seems these attacks have ulterior motives. The frequency and targets makes one to be suspicious. Their targets have been schools and churches, lately
PoliticsRe: Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar Is 79 Today by Focusmind: 9:13am On Nov 25, 2025
Celebrityblog:
Atiku Abubakar is 79 Today.

Happy birthday to him

That means he will be 81 in 2027
......and 85 in 2031 undecided
PoliticsRe: Pastors And Imams Must Pay Tax On Salaries – Oyedele by Focusmind: 7:13am On Nov 25, 2025
The target na the pastors. They are just bringing in Imams into the equation to balance the mix. Which alfa or imam you go tax make him followers no do you strong things? It would be easier to hold the pastors to account but you see Imams, nothing go happen. Moslems would defend the Imams while the Christians will tell the pastors to go and pay their taxes.
