Baba Junior better start buying baby clothes

franugo:
You realize this question is rhetorical right? How can you compare FBI/CIA to Nigerian police?

I thought you said EFCC? So are you saying banks are doing KYC and asking for the colour of your gate and the colour of your house because the security agencies in charge of tracking a fraduaster down incase of any fraudulent activity are ineffective?

Sermwell:
This thread is making us know the kids on this forum! You are clearly a kid!

You know you can actually make sense without sounding very stupid? Shei you know?

franugo:
So if you commit fraud tomorrow and efcc asks the bank to produce your verified address information nko? Or you don't know that banks are charged millions for not doing proper KYC?

Are you saying that in a developed country like America, the FBI or CIA depends on banks to provide them with residential address of people who committed fraud?

DoggoneDogg:





Except he is applying for a loan, a bank has no business knowing the colour of your gate or doing house verification.

Your hard-earned money is with them so if anything, it is the customer that should be asking for their MD's exact house address incase they run away with his money.

Stop posting ignorance on a public forum.

I also thought as much, the bank has absolutely no right in knowing the exact description of your house, what are they coming to visit you for? Except you are taking a loan from them, that is absolute violation of privacy. Just provide a valid residential address, if you are staying there or not it's non of their business.

you be saddist?

Every action, trigger's a reaction, and we must all give account of our actions eventually, been chaste is important if you can, but if you can't don't go around fucking like a porn star, maintain one sexual partner, do not allow this woke generation to mislead you. Personally I am not a freak about virgin's or virginity but definitely I won't end up with something that has been refurbished.

I have never read something as stupid as this! This is absolutely unacceptable, everybody should be held accountable for how he or she uses their body. Accountability is not a sign of not been matured, rather it's a sign of responsibility.

Little more than six decades ago, as Nigeria was nearing independence, even those who were soon to govern Africa’s largest country had their doubts about whether it would hold together. British colonists had drawn a border around land that was home to more than 250 ethnic groups. Obafemi Awolowo, a politician of that era, evoked Metternich, fretting that “Nigeria is not a nation. It is a mere geographical expression.”The early years of independence seemed to prove him right. Coup followed coup. Ethnic pogroms helped spark a civil war that cost 1m lives, as the south-eastern region calling itself Biafra tried to break away and was ruthlessly crushed. Military rule was the norm until 1999. Despite this inauspicious start, Nigeria is now a powerhouse. Home to one in six sub-Saharan Africans, it is the continent’s most boisterous democracy. Its economy, the largest, generates a quarter of Africa’s gdp. Nollywood makes more titles than any other country’s film industry bar Bollywood. Three of sub-Saharan Africa’s four fintech “unicorns” (startups valued at more than $1bn) are Nigerian.Why, then, do most young Nigerians want to emigrate? One reason is that they are scared. Jihadists are carving out a caliphate in the north-east; gangs of kidnappers are terrorising the north-west; the fire of Biafran secessionism has been rekindled in the oil-rich south-east. The violence threatens not just Nigeria’s 200m people, but also the stability of the entire region that surrounds them.

Readers who do not follow Nigeria closely may ask: what’s new? Nigeria has been corrupt and turbulent for decades. What has changed of late, though, is that jihadism, organised crime and political violence have grown so intense and widespread that most of the country is sliding towards ungovernability. In the first nine months of 2021 almost 8,000 people were directly killed in various conflicts. Hundreds of thousands more have perished because of hunger and disease caused by fighting. More than 2m have fled their homes.

The jihadist threat in the north-east has metastasised. A few years ago, an area the size of Belgium was controlled by Boko Haram, a group of zealots notorious for enslaving young girls. Now, Boko Haram is being supplanted by an affiliate of Islamic State that is equally brutal but more competent, and so a bigger danger to Nigeria. In the south-east, demagogues are stirring up ethnic grievances and feeding the delusion that one group, the Igbos, can walk off with all the country’s oil, the source of about half of government revenues. President Muhammadu Buhari has hinted that Biafran separatism will be dealt with as ruthlessly now as it was half a century ago.

Meanwhile, across wide swathes of Nigeria, a collapse in security and state authority has allowed criminal gangs to run wild. In the first nine months of this year some 2,200 people were kidnapped for ransom, more than double the roughly 1,000 abducted in 2020. Perhaps a million children are missing school for fear that they will be snatched.Two factors help explain Nigeria’s increasing instability: a sick economy and a bumbling government. Slow growth and two recessions have made Nigerians poorer, on average, each year since oil prices fell in 2015. Before covid-19, fully 40% of them were below Nigeria’s extremely low poverty line of about $1 a day. If Nigeria’s 36 states were stand-alone countries, more than one-third would be categorised by the World Bank as “low-income” (less than $1,045 a head). Poverty combined with stagnation tends to increase the risk of civil conflict.

Economic troubles are compounded by a government that is inept and heavy-handed. Mr Buhari, who was elected in 2015, turned an oil shock into a recession by propping up the naira and barring many imports in the hope this would spur domestic production. Instead he sent annual food inflation soaring above 20%. He has failed to curb corruption, which breeds resentment. Many Nigerians are furious that they see so little benefit from the country’s billions of petrodollars, much of which their rulers have squandered or stolen. Many politicians blame rival ethnic or religious groups, claiming they have taken more than their fair share. This wins votes, but makes Nigeria a tinderbox.

When violence erupts, the government does nothing or cracks heads almost indiscriminately. Nigeria’s army is mighty on paper. But many of its soldiers are “ghosts” who exist only on the payroll, and much of its equipment is stolen and sold to insurgents. The army is also stretched thin, having been deployed to all of Nigeria’s states. The police are understaffed, demoralised and poorly trained. Many supplement their low pay by robbing the public they have sworn to protect.

To stop the slide towards lawlessness, Nigeria’s government should make its own forces obey the law. Soldiers and police who murder or torture should be prosecuted. That no one has been held accountable for the slaughter of perhaps 15 peaceful demonstrators against police abuses in Lagos last year is a scandal. The secret police should stop ignoring court orders to release people who are being held illegally. This would not just be morally right, but also practical: young men who see or experience state brutality are more likely to join extremist groups.

Things don’t have to fall apart
Second, Nigeria needs to beef up its police. Niger state, for instance, has just 4,000 officers to protect 24m people. Local cops would be better at stopping kidnappings and solving crimes than the current federal force, which is often sent charging from one trouble spot to another. Money could come from cutting wasteful spending by the armed forces on jet fighters, which are not much use for guarding schools. Britain and America, which help train Nigeria’s army, could also train detectives. Better policing could let the army withdraw from areas where it is pouring fuel on secessionist fires.

The biggest barrier to restoring security is not a lack of ideas, nor of resources. It is the complacency of Nigeria’s cosseted political elite—safe in their guarded compounds and the well-defended capital. Without urgent action, Nigeria may slip into a downward spiral from which it will struggle to emerge. ■

magzey:
Just because he left PDP ? U need specialist to comfort u

You are just mentally lazy and stupid. Wetin concern me, concern PDP? Even OBJ said if you put food in front of FFK he will sing for me, he is a man without principles. Check his political history and you will see. Don't just open your mouth because others are opening theirs.

FFK will be remembered for his stomach infastructure politics. He and his likes can never be trusted.

Anybody wey love money to dey love the money dem work for na.

I don't understand what you are saying, the love of money is a blessing, when it becomes a problem is when it becomes an obsession. Get a right partner who loves money, loves the good life, and it will motivate you to go hard or go home.

chatinent:
By the way, a right person to me is sb who loves your imperfections as though theirs.

Sb who doesn't bump on the dog's poo in the sitting room and start yelling at you...but is like.. “honey, seems the dog is purging o.”

Sb whose password isn't river Nile.

Sb who appreciates your every sacrifices.

Sb who reminds you how beautiful you are in their life.

Sb who is proud of you.

Sb who is not a cheat!

Sb who is not a lover of money!

A right person is sb who doesn't expect you to be perfect.


A right person is sb who understands what love truly is. Love is patient, kind, selfless etc.

It's is sad I no dey find the right person.

A rift in the condition of things may make the right person look like the wrong person.

I wan park go meet better days ahead where en dey.

I pray the right person understands.

Adieu.

E dey obvious say you no get money! I pity you if your definition of right person is someone who doesn't love money, because someone who loves money will motivate you to hustle even harder.

The Northern Elites are the major financiers of Boko Haram , Banditry and Fulani Herdsmen, end of story! If another tribe was in the same position all hell would have been let loose. Adesina like a typical FFK Brother is just singing the songs of his master's.

Lol Tonto na wahala reloaded, anything the lady touches turns to dust.

This is absolute trash... If you like build world class facilities and infastructure everywhere, without the safety of lives and properties, nothing has been archived. All this romance with the south east is to enable them have open grazing and ruga. BUHARI MUST GO!!! THEY should prohibit open grazing, and breaching the law should be punishable by hanging.
