After several long legs, she is asked to pay N100,000 to get her pension. it's so very easy to get a lot of things wrong in this country. Remember, the dead that were still being paid pension while the living is wallowing in abject poverty or smthg smwhat better than it.

Why do we hate constructive criticism so much? How hard is it for us as a nation to take these criticism on board and put it to good use? That way we shut the critics up, but no, we aint doing nothing and hence we give them more ammo. It is a simple logic really.

Kannywood is not one of my inventions, sorry.

The hausas have their own personal 'ollywood', mixture of kano/hollywood

You have no right to compare this instance with what happening back in Nigeria. Everything that the u.k Mps do, is in the confinement of the Law. I am sure you are aware that ab expenses reform is in progress. Please try and be clear not every MP claims this 2nd home allowance. This is my issue with people like you. You will never accept when an external body identifies ongoing issues which all of us have failed woefully to confront. you never know maybe the british government might help us do something about our dire situation as we all still waiting for God to do something.

The government only creates an enabling environment and support for its citizens to use their positively creative minds to conquer the commercial world by creating products people want to buy and watch the goodies (dollars) coming home.

And this nonsense shout about POVERTY - Well let me tell you 'knuckle- heads' NO government in this world has ever taken its people out of poverty - that is the job and responsibility of its people. The government only creates an enabling environment and support for its citizens to use their positively creative minds to conquer the commercial world by creating products people want to buy and watch the goodies (dollars) coming home. WE THE PEOPLE ARE RESPONSIBLE AND THE NIGERIAN PEOPLE ARE VERY DIFFICULT TO GOVERN.

My fellow Nigerians. even if our refineries are working fine, what will happen is going to happen, and at the same time we should count the blame on economy, because if the economy is fine, Poverty cannot introduce itself so LETS PUT DA BLAME ON ECONOMY.

.I mean the situation is very pathetic.

extreme poverty can blunt common sense. extreme poverty can convert a virgin to a prostitute.
it can convert a graduate to a tout.
converts a doctor to a foreign toilet cleaner.
converts a pastor to a thief,
it can break families and damage marriages
