Eriokanmi: Side side rails and culvert paintings listed as part of achievement? Common! This is ridiculous. All these fake publicity can only appeal to those who don't live in lagos. If all these was what sanwoolu could display as his achievements in 2 years, he needs to ask us what ambode did in 2 years in Lagos which Tinubu's slaves see as nothing. In alimosho alone, he had fully completed 45 road, well lit , in his 2 years in office , the jubilee bridge in abule egba too had been completed within 18 months as promised. That's alimosho LGA alone , not to talk of other LGAs. All these fake publicity of sanwoolu can only "catch" the gullible minds, who don't seem to worry about sanwoolu's comment on spending between 100k and 1m naira to treat just one covid-19 patient daily in isolation centres donated by individuals and corporate bodies. We won't settle for less come 2023 in Lagos
ngoziwrites: Oh really? Now you are going to shout on the roof tops about how Nigerian Women are useless? Just before then, should I tell you the story of my mum? Helen.
My mum is actually older than my dad with 3 years and she is submissive till the end of forever. She is a nurse while my dad sells tyres, obviously richer than him yet she serves him his food and packs his plate everyday! She pays our fees, buys all the food and she and my dad built our family house together. She pays the bills! She grinds!
Oh really! Now before you make my eyes get teary again with your slang "Nigerian women have nothing to offer", Let me tell you the story of my Aunt in her late 20's. She is the bread winner! She feeds the family, she even married as a virgin! Guess what? She is highly unhappy in her marriage, her hubby cheats like a fish!
Now before you tell me, that's the old generation, let me tell you about my friends: You want to know about the times we have cried because we really want to achieve our dreams so bad? Should I tell you about Upali? My best friend, at the age of 25, she is the one taking care of her family. She pays her siblings school fees. She just renewed their rent at home! Every night she has to listen to her father funny story: "No money"
Okay, now, I am starting to get emotional, this is where I would love to tell you about Aunty Esther, a woman down my street. She is the bread winner of her family! Guess what she does? House maid! And the husband? He sits at home like the boss and she brings him food to eat.
Oh , my mum, once again, mama Ejima! I pray you reap the fruits of your labor. She grinds hard!
Oh please, now I know what you are about to say next "Marriage benefits only women. Women have nothing to offer"
Then I must tell you about the story of my friend; Feyi, recently married and the man lost his job. She doubled her hustle! She stood by him! She made him start a business with her own savings! They are doing okay now.
I know women that grind. I have lived very close to guys. They bring girls to their house everyday; these girls cook, clean and these guys even borrow money from these girls.
Now, you can imagine the huge fist I make when I hear them mocking these girls.
Should I tell you my friend; Gift. At 29, she is hustling and contented with her boyfriend even if he isn't financially stable.
All of the girls I have interacted with; school, service and area. They all grind. Esther my friend just got married while doing her masters abroad.
Bose, who stays on my street hustles really hard despite getting pregnant without a marriage.
Oh please! Should I tell you about Iya Ade in front of my house. What won't this woman sell; Kerosene, Water, Vegetables just to take care of the family.
And my twin sister? She is proudly in love with her boyfriend, she has never sent a dime to her. He is currently out of jobs, she borrowed 7k from me last month just to send to him.
Or Theresa my cousin, 25 years old. She is doing fine with her boyfriend! She brings out the best in him, oh please, don't give me that look, he lives in a self-con with no car or iPhone! She loves him! She supports his business!
I am surrounded by girls that grind! Girls that hustle! Girls with big dreams, even Akudo is about to continue her education abroad.
Olosho? Bone straight? Married men? The craze over iPhone? Take these away from me! I can't relate! (Yeah, If you read this like a scream, I actually screamed)
Me? At 24, I grind! I buy my things. iPhone, bone straight, expensive clothes; I have none of these but I have mind-blowing ideas.
I can't stand small conversations and I believe in submissiveness and loyalty.
So, Where are y'all seeing the crazy girls?
It's raining blue, black here in the girl's world and yet none of y'all is seeing it?
This QUESTION begs for an answer: Where are you all meeting the bad girls that have broken you?
So many girls out these grind! So many women out there are actually the bread winner of their families.
There are definitely bad girls as there are bad boys.
ADVICE: The problem is you, open your eyes.
I am grinding my head out here! I want to double my salary, start my business, take care of my mum, my dad, my siblings and yes, I want to LOVE that special man hard.
You men see a pit, you run into it and then come out to cry!
There are countless good women out there, if you can't point to just one single person then I am forced to ask:
What do you stand for? What are your values? What do you look for in a woman?
During the war I saw to it that the revenue which was due to Iboland - South Eastern states they call it, at that time..East Central State, I kept it, I saved the money for them. And when they ….were librated I handed over the money to them
YoungLionken: I read how people are rejoicing over the death of the Chief of army staff..
The truth is, the hate against the north is now very glaring!
And if the trumpet sounds today, nobody would make it, with the number of hatred and resentment against the north!!
Thank God Buhari didn't appoint a Southerner as the security Chief, if yes, who would have believed Buhari didn't have a hand in his death..
Nnamdi Kanu is quick to say rubbish, but if it were a Southerner, he would have seized it to blackmail and instigate hate and bitterness in the minds of his gullible followers..
Igbos complain of what they actually do;bigotry!!!..
barojana: Handouts in what way The US human dev index is not even as good as that of Norway to begin with. How then can America make Israel what it hasn't achieved?
Israel is in the same league with USA and other Scandinavian countries like sweeden, Denmark etc. It's only unfortunate it is surrounded by historically proven unfortunate Neighbours which has meant it spends heavily on defense what it could have spent on other things. Not Finland, Sweeden or any other countries can survive what Israel has survived and still remain a developed country.
Isreal has the second highest concentration of high valued startups in the world second only to US. It is home to the research and dev hq of most high tech brands like HP, Intel etc. Jews holds the highest number of Nobel prizes held by any ethnic population.
It has over a thousand ultra high networth individuals which pack $744 billion in combined wealth within a population of just 8 million people packed within a country the size of Oyo state. Coming only second to UAE ($825 Billion) and far ahead of Saudi ($482 Billion) and Turkey ($422 B) and Iran ($266B).
Without no oil, it has now surpassed the UAE this year for the second highest Gdp per capita in the Middle East ($43000) surpassing Saudi, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman etc.
Israel has a 4.2% unemployment rate compared to US with 6%. It has inflation of 0.3% compared with USA of 1.7%. This are economic data published by world Bank.
Israel from 1948 - 2021 fought her wars SINGLEHANDEDLY. It has beating a coalition of Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, Saudi, Sudan, Syria on numerous occasion without any US boot on ground for support. Some of its replenishment during war came from as far as chezk Republic not USA.
During the war of attrition, Egypt brought the USSR's ground troops and airforce numbering 20000 to fight Israel's Sinai presence. Israel dealt with USSR (Second Most Powerful Country In The World) on air superiority destroying several airplanes and killing their pilots till they ran away. During did not at one time invite US. Even if it did, US would not come.
The $4 Billion US gives to Israel in military aid is not unique. It equally gives Egypt ($3B) and Pakistan ($2). For Israel, the money helps America's ally with significant advantage over Iran an adversary of USA.
Know wetin you dey talk.
[/s] Nah Overhype kill Goliath..
Israel is not in same league with USA..
Israel is a tool USA is using. That’s why media always favor Israel. It’s all media propaganda.
Let Israel misbehave to USA then you’ll see as things go change for Israel within a blink..

Nbote: The truth is some of us jus want to react. There aren't different whatsapp for different regions it is the same one and only app with the same terms and conditions and the same privacy settings. Sometimes we jus want to react in dis part jus for reacting sake. Majority of us have all our private information displayed of Facebook and still worry about information sharing with Facebook. We are reacting over the wrong privacy concerns
There can be different WhatsApp for different regions brother. You won't know coz you don't know.
