RIP Etruth

I may not know you but my heart bleed.


What way can we seek Justice?

Dangote Trucks can not keep killing us. Someone must be held accountable

Today it is ETruth, tomorrow it maybe you.

Dangote Trucks are a disaster waiting to happen. We can't just fold our arms and allow this Dangote Madness to continue.

Google "dangote trucks" and you'll have a feel of why I am this mad


It's funny how MTN could be fined over #1Trillion for failure to disconnect unregistered SIM cards and Dangote Trucks kills over 20 people and we just continue with our lives like nothing happened!


Dangote was swift to take to Twitter to debunk rumors of his abduction in Mali but will never say a word about his Trucks recklessness.

The Dangote Group will just ignore (like they always do). What a Company! What a country!



I hate Dangote Trucks, I hate the Group's Management, I hate Dangote!

Whoever wrote this piece is a clown. How does punishing individuals or corporate bodies for their flagrant disregard for our laws put a dent on investment? America issues billions in fines against corporations yearly and these idiots have never made such an assertion. Everyone has the right to be stupid but whoever published this trash is abusing that privilege.

Former banker Kemi Adeosun has been appointed Nigeria’s new finance minister by the country’s president Muhammadu Buhari. She faces an uphill struggle to shore up Africa’s largest economy, which has been battered by a 40% fall in the price of oil.

GDP growth has slowed to 4% this year, and the government may have to push through more unpopular cuts to subsidies and infrastructure investments to plug the holes in its finances. Oil makes up around 60% of the government’s budget.

Adeosun, who has been the finance commissioner for Ogun State since 2011, is a former managing director at Chapel Hill Denham, a Lagos-based investment bank, according to her LinkedIn LNKD +1.18% profile.

“Adeosun’s appointment to head the most important ministry during a time of economic crisis will stir some controversy. She is relatively inexperienced, especially compared to her immediate predecessor Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, a political heavyweight,” says Malte Liewerscheidt, senior Africa analyst at Verisk Maplecroft. “Adeosun has a strong background in the UK’s private financial sector but may struggle to navigate federal politics as the only post she previously held in Nigeria was Commissioner of Finance in Ogun State.”

Okechukwu Enelamah, head of the private equity company African Capital Alliance who had also been tipped to become finance minister, has been sworn in as minister of trade and investment. First on his to-do list will be rehabilitating Nigeria’s reputation as a destination for foreign direct investment, which has been dented by the huge and high-profile fine handed to South African telecommunications operator MTN.

Babatunde Fashola, the former governor of Lagos State, has been put in charge of the power, works and housing portfolio, overseeing infrastructure. Buhari appointed himself oil minister in September.

Buhari, who won elections in March on a populist, reformist, anti-corruption platform, took nearly five months to name his cabinet, and only announced which of his nominees would hold which portfolios on November 11, when they were sworn in.

Some analysts said that the vacuum in political leadership has hampered policymaking during difficult period for the Nigerian economy and exacerbated the downturn.

Without clarity in economic policymaking, the Central Bank of Nigeria has attempted to use monetary policy tools to limit the damage to the economy, imposing limited capital controls and spending the country’s foreign currency reserves to prop up the naira.

“While losing precious time, the new government was unable not only to unveil much-needed economic and political reform… but it was also unable to present the budget for next year nor push forward urgent infrastructure programs,” Ricard Torné, FocusEconomics’ senior economist for Sub-Saharan Africa, said last month.

He should talk to her about it. That's how people will be bringing their relationship issues online for advice when the solution is just in front of them

Tell him to ask her about her limits. How far can she go with the physical interaction of their bodies

Hello nairalanders, I just wish I'll get a shoulder or two to cry on tonight. Things are becoming unbearable for me and I don't know how far I can walk on these shoes. Here's my story...


I am 28 and married to a 35yr old youngman whom I love so dearly. We are blessed with 2 kids and most material things one can pray for. My marriage is 5yrs with just minor issues that do come up once in a VERY LONG while.

The problem is that my hubby does not show me affection and hardly approaches me for sex. I am a very neat, beautiful, Godfearing, educated and classy lady. Most times I am the one who initiates intimacy in our marriage. My heart breaks each time I read or hear of women who deny their husbands sex because its an opposite in my case. For more than two months now we've not been intimate. To make matters worse, he prefers to sleep in the sitting room or children's room than in our matrimonial room.

He always pretends to be tired but not too tired to be chatting on whatsapp with friends. I have his password, that is not an issue. I am not suspecting anything even though I'm not totally ruling out the possibility of adultery. He comes back very late in the night unlike before. Infact even when he comes early these days, he will rather stay with friends within the street or house than come inside. Believe me nairalanders, we don't have issues. Infact he keeps saying that God blessed him with a wonderful woman. It's not like I make the house uncomfortable for him. The only communication we have these days is greetings, asking how the day went or few general topics.

I am not a woman who can't do without sex but I just need to be shown affection even if sex is not there. Committing adultery on my own part is IMPOSSIBLE, i will rather opt for divorce. I am so confused, lonely and heartbroken. I love my husband beyond the word LOVE. I just wish he can see the tears in my eyes as I lay lonely on our bed each night. I am very fragile by nature and gets hurt easily. Believe me...this is killing me.

Please, people drop a word or two for a hurting soul.
