You have a point there, but I now see sx from another angle as something that once you taste it, I slows down your productivity.

Maybe for you, but for many men out there, it actually boosts productivity. Americans have a lot of sex as there are so many avenues to ejaculate in peace, yet possess higher productivity than we do.

Fekumzi123:
You're absolutely right.
As a man, if a girl is denying me sx I will not be happy with her but I don't want to have a daughter that opens her leg to any man anyhow or before marriage.
In fact I don't even want my son to have sex until he has his own business and house.
There's little fun and enjoyment in it but in reality it is slowing you down. Your energy and resources you could have channel towards a more productive life.
And I strongly support those girls who says no sx for broke men because they're actually trying to help them.

Unrealistic. Many seem to underestimate the importance of sex to men's health. If so, ensure he gets married early enough.

This is one of the reasons I support early marriages, especially in southern Nigeria. It is really unrealistic to have young people remain single from their teens till their 30s before they marry. Hormones are not m_orons. In a largely prudish and sanctimonious country, early marriages ensure that both genders enjoy sex within marriage.

Alternatively, contraceptives should be made common and socially acceptable for women. Again, the country is largely prudish, so early marriage solves the issue. Northern Nigeria wins in this aspect.

I wonder ohh, People still talk about racism in 2026!!

Especially from Nigerians...

JESHAL007:
Sir do women ration sex to their husbands, is it possible as a married man for your wife to be rationing sex to you after paying bride price and assuming responsibilities in the home

Of course! Haven't you been reading posts from women who outrightly say their husbands should not pester them for sex? That "sex is not food?" Or haven't you had married men complain to you that their wives don't want to have sex with them? When I was first told, I took it as nothing, but upon hearing from more married men about the issue and then reading posts from women defending their stance vigorously, I knew it is a serious issue.

12345baba:
help him and b more specific. Tribal bigot

But she is correct. Tomorrow, the same women who are the biggest beneficiaries would categorise their men as misogynists. Women who enjoy one of the highest living standards, prosperity and level of education in West Africa.

Move to PH or Delta State( Warri or abraka) Thank me later

I'm based in Lagos , but the number of clients i get from those region is massive, every year i always find myself going to PH.

Are you in the same line of career/service as OP before recommending those cities?

Sirchiboy:
Do you work online as a teacher or Nigerian employed teacher.
Learn from my mistake.
The biggest mistake you can make is to rent house without first securing job.
First secure job in lagos.
Find someone to stay with in a year or 6 months before renting your own house to understand lagos environment.
You might rent house first and issues might arise. .landlord problem , renting house where there is no light ,water or network

Water can be found in the desert.

OP, get a similar teaching job in Lagos before making the final move and do as this fellow outlined after securing the job. It reduces costs and eases settling down in the state. You are very young, so bite the bullet and go ahead.

Guy juju dey ooo
U never see nor mean say juju nor dey oo
Juju dey, to make person turn mad, make rain fall, even sun to shine, I don see where bullet fail or even gun didn't answer when u point at someone oo

Where was this juju when the British came calling? Or when herdsmen attack people's farmlands?

Raph82:
Thriving industry you say? Well, the word thriving is relative. I'm well familiar with northern livestock production system, because I served at the state veterinary clinic in the north. I would be glad if you could mention 6 dairy farms in the so-called north with 200 dairy cows (exotic breeds) and a 30 to 50-cow capacity fully-automated milking parlours that's fully operational.

With which cattle does the north produce milk from? Is it with all these Bunaji breeds (white fulani breeds) or what? How many litres of milk can the white fulani breeds produce daily?

The number there makes it impossible for me to list them because I am not too sure they have such in their ranches. I read about a Malaysian man who became a multi-millionaire from the industry. A solid middle class population to sell to and low interest rate loans from agencies are the key factors to building a thriving dairy industry. Now, does this mean Kenya has a stronger middle class than Nigeria?

see here: https://www.forbes.com/sites/jonathanburgos/2026/04/15/malaysian-tycoons-farm-fresh-dairy-outfit-is-taking-on-rivals-with-its-grass-to-glass-approach/

Kenya invested heavily in exotic breeds of dairy cattle from Netherlands, UK to improve their local breeds through a good breeding program. But Nigeria leaves the business in the hands of fulani nomadic farmers who can't even differentiate between beef cattle and dairy cattle.

So why are northern elites not pushing forward for this big time? The industry needs patient capital, and as illustrated, the Malaysian entrepreneur, even though ethnic Chinese, got gov't backing to expand his farm.

You might have come across L and Z farms. His recent interview here: https://nidacity.com/articles/nigeria-has-enough-cows-it-just-needs-muhammad-abubakars-system and a long time article about the industry here: https://www.economist.com/middle-east-and-africa/2015/06/06/uncowed

LalaGreen247:
I have seen some big Japanese twitter account make some racist tweets on their timeline with comments in approval of the tweet. Is that really the reality of thing in Japan?

You would most likely never come across such people in real life. The most obvious, which I have realised is an East Asian thing, is them not sitting close to you in the train, even when that is the only seat available, except in rush hour periods. Everything else, just go about your activity and act like they don't exist.

emmaodet:
Gbam!!!

Don't mind tbers we are even going to meet for help are rich enough to cater for their own sef first?
Someone is not staying in a duplex, not using a brand new car, his kids are just going to average schools of 100/150k per term, no be say e dey go vacation steady every year yet you are crying for Help up and down claiming such a person is wicked.

Is that not craziness and entitlement?
You see person wey still be tenant, dey use naija used car or tokunbo. What kind of help do you think such a person can really render kwanu?
And when you imagine such Help cryers are atleast 10 around you as family members and friends.
Where do you actually want to start from sef?

The bold is a good reference point - how many people can one give money to? Because Mr A asked does not mean there aren't others who have asked as well. So, if I give everyone who asked me for financial assistance, how much will be left for me? What if I dey owe banks loans and have to meet up with the interest rate?

People should focus on reducing their expenses. A big one is having few children and stop keeping up with the Joneses

Raph82:
There's nothing like dairy industry in Nigeria, that industry is non-existent here. We still have a long way to go getting the industry running. It's a multi-billion dollar industry lying fallow, yet untapped.

Seeing your signature, then this post. It is a thriving industry in northern Nigeria. But agreed, not up to the level of the Kenyans.

Onegai:
But we don't have the infrastructure to push STEM and we're not interested in doing so. Even your elites and upper middle class who can afford it, will pay for shabby STEM primary and secondary school education than actual serious work.

I work in STEM education, my colleague is pushing it at Primary and Secondary level and I know how hard it is for her to convince parents to invest.

We don't value education here tbh.

So, it is a cultural issue, not a money problem.

It might be your trade secret, but what is that significant difference in math pedagogy between top schools (say Loyola or any good Catholic school) in Nigeria vs say the Singaporean public school system (which you have referenced)?

SamuraiXXX:
Are you advocating violence?

I thought you were a mature and sensible person, i was wrong!

look at your signature, yet you accuse me of violence?

The person I quoted is a r@bid Igbo h@ter who is seemingly exposed, enlightened and educated. These are not Fulanis who bring out d@gger at the quickest provocation. These are people who are well-read and exposed. So their response will be systematic. Was I involved in the violence perpetrated in 2023? So, why accuse me of violence simply because I am predicting what will happen? He has stated it - redesignation of development for specific areas. Land use charges will be increased. Markets will be closed indefinitely. Till now, the Eze Indigbo of Ajao Estate is still in jail. Was I involved? Did I suggest that to those who imprisoned him?

DeOTR:
How about the government place huge tariffs on China imported safety foot gears once they're confident this company can meet the demand? I'm not sure China would do anything differently if they're in that shoe.

The local content act already solves that for him. It was stated in the article.

Onegai:
Because those subjects are actually important.

We need Arts, Humanities as well as STEM for balance.

You don't want STEM running the world. Tech bros are running the world currently and look at how horrible it is. They keep creating products that destroy humanity. They've calculated humans as necessary and unnecessary and Black people of all backgrounds are unnecessary because we contribute the least to humanity yetbour continent sits on vast resources.

I am a STEM professional, I'm trained to be as black-and-white as possible rather than look at the full picture.

Arts looks at the value of things and people and deems us all as worthy of life. Science weighs and measures everything precisely.

It is why AI is so dangerous: eventually it gets things wrong and works purely on Logic. Asking it personal questions for advice always leads to it making brutal inhuman decisions. I'm speaking from experience. It's why you shouldn't take blind advice from the internet: strangers don't know you and can't see the whole picture. AI works that way, it was written by people who needed it to give answers in a straightforward manner whilst sounding human.

This does really make sense, and while I do advocate for math education to be learned by everyone, we need the arts to balance things out. I do think my academic background of life sciences enable me to ask questions beyond the surface compared to if I were a pure math grad. Topical issues need to be looked at holistically and follow-up questions to fully assess them.

However, at Nigeria's stage of development, we need more STEM (technical and research) grads than any other category.

professorPABX:
He has passed the message across already. There is no need for any apology. From Gbagada phase 1, Phase2 to Ajah, from Ajao Estate, Okota, festac , Igando to Iyana Oba up to Agbara, etc. The redevelopment of houses at Ebute Metta to Iddo to Lagos Island.

There is no need for apology

Just as I expected...

Lands will be seized
Houses will be demolished
Market closure will be rampant and hastily done
Mysterious fires here and there.

na ordinary Igbos who make their daily bread and butter I pity the most. cho cho cho every now and then.

I expect the mother of all floggings next year.

DeepSight:
Any Nigerian having to apologize for living in Lagos is as absurd as an Englishman apologizing for living in London, a South African for living in Johannesburg, an American for living in New York, a Brazilian for living in Rio de Janeiro, etc. Lagos is the economic capital of Nigeria and also its melting pot and nerve centre.

Of course this takes nothing away from the historical ethnic Yoruba identity but in my view no one should reduce Lagos to a tribal enclave. It is a city of international standing with a rich mix of culture and commerce.

It is one thing to live in a city in a country, whether homogeneous or heterogeneous; it is another to claim you own all the lands in that city in an ethnically diverse country.

Dalohad:
Illbliss is too smart to make such statement.

I am sure this fake news is from one rabid Bulaban looking to cause their usual mischief with propaganda.

If Ill-bliss denies it tommorow, he will not post the denial..

We know how they think because we have studied them for donkey years.

Expect more of these propaganda fake news from the stables of APC bulabans as we move closer to election days.

They are only good at campaigning with ethnically inflammatory propaganda and fake news..

That is his official Twitter account and he tweeted unprovoked! BTW, he is not smart as a supposedly smart Sam Amadi even uttered that Igbos should govern Lagos.

folake4u:
Very very immoral.

We never even scratch the surface of what they've done so far.

I came across this article published over 50 years ago. I kuku bookmarked it. Let me catch anyone chant Gen-Z and all. I am dead sure those folks experimented with three.some. But dem wan let person hear word today.

Tinubu should listen to the IMF and do it, and if he doesn't , whoever is taking over should listen to the IMF and do it, alongside fighting corruption

I know people will abuse me, and will call me names for my opinion, so let me drop some facts.

Our budget this year is: 68 trillion naira

Actual revenue available to fund this budget is : 33 trillion naira
Deficit: 35 trillion naira...and to cover that deficit, that is where the loans come in.

Yes, oil revenue rose, but remember that we have a debt of about 150 trillion naira to pay for.


People like to abuse me on this site and call me agbadoe, but if it was Peter Obi, or Atiku in charge, based on what I know, I would give them the same advice. We all shout that we want government to stop borrowing, but when it comes to measures to stop borrowing, we suddenly become allergic to good advice


Tinubu is a bad leader, and I am not voting for him next year, by the way.


Nigeria has had this deficit problem for decades. Everytime earnings do not meet up with the budget, meaning we have to borrow. This is because of the fact that we rely on resources WHOSE PRICES WE DO NOT SET. We cannot set oil above the international price to fund our budget because our buyers will go and meet the cheaper option. Back when we had cotton, cocoa, palm oil, same thing. (Ghana some years ago raised prices of its cocoa to meet up with budget funding and buyers went to other countries, Nigeria included, to buy cheaper stuff).

Most of the rich and poor do not pay taxes, only people in formal employment pay PAYE taxes, and revenue from VAT was about 8 trillion naira , plus revenue from bank charges was around 4 trillion naira...for this budget.

And the 68 trillion naira is not enough for a nation of 230 million people. You can abuse me, but we are too big for the budget. And that budget is the money available before stealing and looting happens.

Y'all can abuse me, but we have to face cold reality.

Either we start listening to the IMF and fighting corruption, as well as improving taxation, or else, even if we vote Obi tomorrow, as i hope we all do, or Atiku tomorrow, or even Sowore, I guarantee that our debt would be 800 trillion naira in eight years time.

You are free to abuse me and call me names now, thank you. I no longer care.
If una no wan hear, then that means you should stop complaining about borrowing, because refusal to support improved taxation and anti-corruption measures means you support borrowing.

Again, I am voting for Obi next year, and in reality, I don't care about all your politicans. IF Obi fails, out he goes in four years, and so forth, until we get sane leadership. Maybe we go wait till the debt is 10000 trillion naira before we get our own MIlliei and LKY...it took Argentina to get into such severe debt that it was defaulting on payments, for them to wake up. Now their currency is strong and fiscal performance better, and eventually other areas will improve.

The figures are mind-blowing! Buhari and his cohorts wrecked the country. Then again, Tinubu supported him in 2015 and 2019.

To add, even if oil rises to 140 per barrel, Buhari used future oil sales as collateral for greater loans.

lawani:
If Nigeria remains one, the next Northern President should be Yoruba if there is anything resembling fairness and/or equity. The Yoruba are the second largest ethnic group in the North after the Hausa and they have gotten nothing up till now

Please let's crack better jokes, abeg.

Curious345:
Lovely combination.. but another Fulani man as president is very unsettling

When power is expected, rightfully so, to return to the north after Tinubu's tenure, which ethnic group is expected to take over?

P.S. Fulanis taking over means 24 uninterrupted years of Muslim presidency.

I'm curious, where do you see these groups to join?

Stephen0mozzy:
These clowns are one more reason why I'll personally discourage Seun from ever monetizing nairaland.

The average content creator posting werey in Nigeria has zero creativity. They only latch on controversial outputs, nudity to garner views. Zero influence, zero value, just clowning about.

Monetizing Nairaland is even worse because it's meant to be an anonymous platform. Anyone who wants money off monetisation should go elsewhere.

Skylenski:
Some of you don’t know the importance of spirituality you haven’t experienced any before so don’t bother to put your thought on it

Why did they have to wait until now? BTW, where was this juju when the British came calling?

Finally! Juju will be used for a positive development. Not everytime using it to monitor what goes inside a woman's vagina. Use your juju to fight those who kidnap, rape and slaughter your women.

That's when I will believe juju works in its entirety. You use your strength to benefit your life and people.

Starz825:
Very needless comparison

Some of those countries are doing better than Nigeria.

How dangote fortune take help me?

Some of you are profound eediots o. How is Burkina Faso better off than Nigeria?

I have travelled to over 15 Africa countries, 7 outside Africa, lived in America, currently living in England.

You all hype Nigeria too much, you all feel Nigeria is developed, Lagos Wey dey smell? Abi my hometown warri wey be like wetin I no know? Abi na Benin wey be like 1936 place. The only thing make it look nice abit is the people, survivors, survival mentality, brother chop brother instinct.

Lagos our commercial capital
Like joburg, Cairo, etc is a shit hole.

Before you die, don’t forget to leave and experience other cities, GIVE YOUR KIDS a passport they can survive on.

Add all the politicians, religious leaders, thieves, fraud, them no reach 10 percent of Canada and uk,

Egypt double of us.
Our population 250million, time 4 of Uk, times 5 of Canada, times 2 of Egypt.
We overhype ourselves, we are just noise makers.

Even the fraud, China and co sabi am, but we just overhype ourselves.

We need a mindset update.

Fashola did nothing for that Lagos, it’s a shithole, same as my foolish governors

Egypt isn't an "African country". The problem is you comparing Nigeria - a predominantly Black nation - to non-Black nations. Only South Africa surpasses us. If Benin City is bad, then countless of non-capitals in other sub-Saharan countries are way worse.

It should be Black to Black before others.
