Sports › Re: Afghan Women Footballers Evacuated By Australian Government After Plea by Focusmind: 4:37pm On Aug 24, 2021
All these Afghans are using this opportunity to Jappa. Talibans have said that people should continue with their normal lives. The spokesman for the Taliban have said that the reason behind people wanting to leave is more of economical and not because of insecurity or any political fall out as a result of Taliban coming to power.

I have the feeling that this current Taliban would surprise the world with new form of liberalism rather than the hard line posture they took the other time. They have learnt their lessons and would probably be more accommodating. Let's watch and see.
Crime › Re: Lagos Artisan Beats His 7-Year-old Son To Death Over Fish by Focusmind: 2:26pm On Aug 24, 2021
He should be arrested

Please if you are poor and struggling, hold on with fathering a child. There is that frustration in Nigeria that comes with hardship and having kids to cater for. It is not a must to have kids. We should not be seeing having kids as an achievement when we don't have any means of catering for them. Imagine, killing your own child because of fish - fish that he must have eating because he was too hungry. I cant count the number of times my kids would open the fridge and pick my sugarless chocolate cake or drink my habib yoghourt, my favorite desserts.
Crime › Re: Anambra Vigilante Kills Driver Over N500 Bribe by Focusmind: 2:11pm On Aug 24, 2021
Nigeria!

In Nigeria, being calm under serious provocation is an art that has to be mastered if you want to save your life and sanity. I have learnt to behave well with arm bearing people - police o, army o, vigilante or even area boyz. I have learnt not to argue with them at all and if I have money that could make me leave that vicinity, I don't mind giving them immediately and leave.

There is no need doing "gra gra" with a Nigerian with gun. A lot of people are frustrated and under substances. The driver is now gone and nothing would happen. Sometimes, it is good to behave like "mugu" and save yourself unnecessary stress and harm. Don't show strong head on things that could be resolved easily with money.

My wife, sometimes accuse me of being too soft with people, unruly neighbors, police on the road, agberos or touts. My brother, I have nothing to prove to anybody. Don't prove your Alpha-male tag to your wife or girl friend and start unnecessary physical fight. If any eventuality happens and you die, she mourns you and move on. Always keep calm under serious provocation and wriggle your way out with few cash if you have.

Very daft set of people. Igbos living in the East are the most ignorant set of people. They think they are doing the government; they are doing themselves. I pity the poor and daily workers, who eats only when they work.

IPOB members do not have any sustainable work or living they are engaged in. They should leave the hard-working Igbos alone and fight their own useless battle.

Politics › Re: PDP Crisis Takes New Twist With Secondus Suspension by Focusmind: 8:49am On Aug 24, 2021
The way Rivers state government uses courts to get its bidding is becoming worrisome.

Nwike always obtain all the reliefs sought in court, especially the courts in Rivers state. They always grants him the injunctions, reliefs and prayers he is seeking. That is why he is always giving the Judges houses and exotic cars. The case of Rivers Federal High Court saying that it is the Rivers state government that has the right to collect VAT and not the FGN through the FIRS. Though I liked the judgment but the way courts in Rivers state are dishing out judgments in favor of state governments calls for concern

Education › Re: LASG Insists On Reviewed Boarding Fees For Model Colleges by Focusmind: 6:39am On Aug 23, 2021
Nigeria's system!

Honestly, people are becoming poorer in Nigeria. If not because of poverty and economic downturn, what the government did was ok. Steady fee for the past 18 years! You can't even get that overseas. Prices of school fees increases after like two years.

People are complaining that Gala increased from 50 Naira to 100 Naira. My brother, Gala has tried fa. Considering the economic cost of production, the price had been on 50 Naira for the past 15 years or so. Some that were born within that period knew gala price to be 50 naira.

Most of us in business have also increased the prices of our products in the light of current realities. Quality education is not cheap!

More wahala for me. My generator has packed up; my deep freezer compressor spoilt and no money to fix it yet; there has not been light in my estate for the past 2 weeks because of transformer issues ;my solar systems, the only reliable power source may not work because of cloudy weather; I can't pump water to my tank - no Nepa; no generator.

Torrential rainfall now is something I don't pray for, at least, let the solar still keep working. I need as much sunshine I could get for now.

SMH

See the defunct Biafra that was championed by University dons, Professors, intellectuals, technocrats and clergies.

What we have now are touts, riff rats, terrorists and those who have no sustainable means of livelihood. Igbos should ignore these guys and face their daily occupations. Sadly, these guys are being cheered by online warriors and overseas based Igbos without knowing the repercussion of their actions on the ordinary Igbo man in the East eking out a living.

As Major-General Philip Effiong, the general officer commanding the Biafra army and territory said on January 15 1970, that the territory known as Biafra have ceased to exist. Igbos should be on the forefront of aspiring for political power to correct the national polity and restore dignity to governance if that is what they want. An independent nation is not a solution at this time.
Business › Re: You Can Only Have A Maximum Of $10,000 In Domicilary Account - Stanbic IBTC by Focusmind: 8:42pm On Aug 21, 2021
Good!

I am not a fan of Buhari but sometimes, the Soviet era kind of system is what fits Nigeria and Nigerians. We keep complaining about naira falling against the dollar yet, most Nigerians, especially the middle class and the rich, keep storing their wealth in dollars. What do you expect? The pressure on naira will continue. Nigeria is not a productive economy. We import most of the things we consume and you expect the naira not to fall.

Billions of dollars are sitting in peoples domiciliary accounts doing nothing. Government is not a magician to stop the free fall of naira. It should be collective effort. Agreed that the government has a role to play in arresting the free fall of naira, the citizens are also culpable. our penchant for foreign goods knows no limit. Everything in this country is "dollarized" and the government is also contributing to this dollarization.

However, some hard measures are needed to save the situation. If nothing is being done about this free fall, dollar will hit N2000 per $ by end of next year. People are offloading their naira accounts and changing them to dollars and pay them into their domiciliary accounts. These are the things that continues to pile pressure on naira.

So sad!

I hope all those lucky ones inside the C-17 plane would not turn against their adopted country?

I don't know why they behave that way. You escape from the country with oppressive system and land in a country that offers you freedom. You still link up with the oppressive terrorists in the country that you ran away from to torment and terrorize the new country that offered you hope. See what some Syrian refugees are doing in Germany.

Travel › Re: Nigerian Sues UK For Denying Him Entry After Landing At Manchester Airport by Focusmind: 5:50am On Aug 15, 2021
He may likely win the case against all odds. Some Nigerians may not even know who the managing director of their company is talk more of knowing the company's mission and vision statement.

There is rule of law in UK even if it is against government. That's why government officials and institutions do not behave any how or else you would be sued.

However, the UK law is equally over protective of immigration and border officials. The law protects them and their decisions if they felt that they have a strong conviction not to let a traveller in, even with a visa.

They should continue sitting at home. I pity the poor petty traders and artisans that depends on daily pay. Sadly, some idiotic nairalanders will be here hailing this type of behavior. Seriously, the trust in government has gone abysmally low. People do not trust the government to protect them again. The fear of the deadly IPOB is the beginning of wisdom.

All these terrorist have nothing at stake. They are just venting their anger and frustration on hard working people, and surprisingly, being cheered on by supposedly "learned" people. Keep doing yourself. Hatred and sentiments won't get the Igbos anything.

Na to use public transport pass there first to survey the road and the diversions. Do the same if you don't understand all these diversions. LASMA and some bad police men will station themselves, waiting for motorists to make mistake and take the wrong diversion, which may be one way. They will impound your car straight. Lagos is just a funny city.
