She should be dealt with...wether she pays up or not...as long as the case got to court, she never wanted to pay
Corrupt leaders and politician take undue advantage of Nigerians(under their watch)...now skit makers want to start doing same.
That "...and nothing will happen" mentality must stop.
Corrupt politicians plunging 9js into debt should take note..9ja's anti corruption bodies won't be ineffective for ever....for someone like that ex-kogi governor to have the guts to pick a forn for senate...there's a big problem.
Once you've given out something as a gift, you have no control over how it's used or valued.
Now you know that she's not in as much need as you thought she was.
The reason things like this happen is cos we sometimes render the wrong type of help to people...the kind of help she needs is not what you're offering.
If you confront her, she'll say sorry and you'll still move on.
So let it slide and move on.
sync: I have been keeping my old clothes for a while now. These clothes are all in perfect condition. They were clothes I got abroad while I was a student and some I acquired as a working class.
So some time ago I decided to select a few of them to give to my hairstylist. I called her a day before then and I asked her if she was interested, she sounded kind of cold and said yes. I took them to her the following morning on my way to work. She received it and only said “thank you”. I expected her to at-least message me later after probably going through it (cos some of them were actually brand new with the tags still attached) and showing appreciation, but she never did. Recently, I wanted to revamp my wigs and decided to take them to her. She wasn’t around at the shop when I got there so I had to wait. To my shock and dismay, I saw she was using one of my treasured dresses as her rag in the shop!! This was a dress that was in perfect condition when I gave it out to her, it was as good as new. That Dress Meant More to Me Than to Her and it dawned on me that value is truly personal
So my wig is due for collection soon. Should I confront her about it or just let it slide. Kindly advise
The Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Economic Affairs, Tope Fasua, has clarified his controversial statement suggesting that N10,000 could feed a family for several days.
Fasua said he actually referred to “a person” and not a family.
He made the clarification in a statement posted on his Facebook page on Sunday, following criticism over a viral clip from his interaction with Kay’s Hikers Club in Abuja on May 5, 2026.
The presidential aide said the remark was made in the context of rural Nigeria and was immediately corrected during the session.
“My attention has been drawn to the viral two-second clip of my interaction with Kay’s Hikers Club held on May 5, 2026, at The Destination, Abuja, wherein I stated that N10,000 is enough to ‘feed a modest family for several days’.
“There is a need to clarify that I meant to say ‘person’, and not ‘family’, and we were speaking at that point in the context of rural Nigeria.
“I immediately clarified my statement right there and then and emphasised to the audience the need for serious personal financial management in the context of global hardships,” he said.
Fasua said the engagement with the group, made up mostly of young Nigerians, lasted over two hours and focused on the country’s economic reforms, taxation policies and opportunities within Nigeria despite prevailing economic challenges.
According to him, some participants were confrontational during the discussion, but he considered the outing necessary to encourage direct engagement between government officials and citizens.
“Still, I believe it was an important outing, such that should be encouraged between government appointees and citizens — especially Gen Zs,” he stated.
He added that discussions during the session touched on issues such as the challenges facing foreign retail chains and the growth of Nigerian-owned businesses.
“In fact, the first salvo of questions was around the issue of Shoprite’s challenges, when I promptly brought up the bustling alternatives like Ebeano, Sahad, JustRite, HyperCity, Bokku, Market Square and other Nigerian brands,” he said.
Fasua also criticised what he described as sensational reporting and selective use of clips on social media, saying comments made during lengthy discussions were often taken out of context.
“We live in a world where people judge by headlines. We also live in a world where the media cleverly maxes out their popularity with sensational headlines and where the selectivity of reportage can put people in awkward situations,” he said.
The presidential aide maintained that despite Nigeria’s challenges, young people should remain optimistic about the country rather than seeking opportunities abroad.
“I will continue to inform the youths of Nigeria that statistically, they are better off building their nation than running abroad to already developed nations where they are often faced with daunting challenges and hurdles,” Fasua added.
Abi o...they should ask themselves what exactly about that statement erks them so much...if no be guilty conscience wan kii them🤣🤣🤣they know but they pretend to be blind and deaf to the realities..
Now na grammar all of them dey speak..with plenty statistics...no evidence 🤣
Ofunaofu: As the 2027 general election approaches, one of the most commonly used phrases among Nigerians, especially voters...is “Vote wisely.”
Yet, the phrase is often misconstrued as an attack on a particular candidate. In fact, many Tinubu/APC supporters seem to interpret it as a direct jab at Tinubu, reacting hysterically and launching venomous verbal attacks at anyone who says it.
Ironically, if “Vote wisely” sounds offensive to someone, perhaps they should ask themselves why
You sound like one of those benefiting from the insanely corrupt broken and dysfunctional system. Really The system is working like it was designed to? Guess it's now a crime to expect the barest minimum from Nigeria and nobody dare complain cos the truth mustn't be let out.
What offence did the OP commit that angers you so much?
Kaczynski: airports everywhere outside of east asia and nordic countries are turd holes, lagos is just more honest about it. the system isn't broken, it's working exactly as designed. you brought your kid into nigeria expecting some fairy tale instead got slapped with reality and now you writing a manifesto. congrats you discovered that nigeria isn't switzerland. did you think the airport staff were going to sing kumbaya and hand out free viagra samples? the trolley guys are hustling because that's the economy. you want change? go be a political leader instead of crying on a forum. and that guy extorting you? classic nigerian entrepreneur, persistence is a feature not a bug. if you can't handle 40 minutes of mild harassment, you are not cut out for the motherland. you stay abroad and spare us this novel.
RuMiRgO1stSon: This hilarious moment from National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) camp shows one corps member that cant sync his hands and legs during orientation parade exercise and it’s impossible not to laugh. Turning a serious NYSC parade into pure comedy. You have to watch closely to see what went wrong 😭 Have you ever seen something like this in NYSC camp?
Were camp officials not aware she fell ill? Didn't they have her medical history
What did they do?
Was first aid not admistered to her at the camp clinic?..that's if they had anything sef
Why were you the only one caring for her?
Were her parents informed of her emergency? Why wasn't she given a pass to go home or something?
Human life has become so cheap that everything is taken with levity... Just imagine...after she survived the journey to that place without being kidnapped... next thing now nysc&govt will form committee to do investigation and give press statement saying they're shocked.
Picture this...someone who is supposedly in charge of food you want to eat comes to you and he's on dirty dreads...long dirty fingernails etc You open your plate of abula to find a housefly in the mix.(multiple times...with different incidences by the way)
Your bikemen aren't the first to work in the sun all day...before the proliferation of these bike delivery services, there were microfinance marketers...ever heard of those They worked in the sun all day but they had to be smart and clean as much as possible....it was sacrosanct...I remember them coming to us multiple times back in the day to try them.
Whatever floats your boat...I only said what I won't do and it's not by force Q.E.D.
If you say they look sweaty I can accept that, but unkempt it just something you made up. How do you expect someone who works under the rain and sun to be as fresh as a cashier who is indoor with "beta" AC look the same way.
Skit or not...I can never use these dispatch guys..
They often look very unkempt.
The risk associated with the less than hygiene standard of eating out is enough with videos showing giant rats flexing inside showglass🥱 and people putting all sorts in their food during preparation
If you can't make the journey to get your food, better rest.

See this one calling people gullibl...I do not have your time else i'd have listed several instances of news that your masters debunked but later accepted. ..Then again, it's no use cos una no dey tink before una quote.
aspabay: You people just believed the fake news coming from unknown media houses and refuse to believe facts from Nigerian revenue services. Who do Una like this.
Which serious government policy do you think will be announced on a weekend.
The fake news merchants know what they are doing , allowing fake news to spread before Monday when govt will normally want to official debunk it.
Thank God they debunked quickly but you can believe what you want. That’s why you are G. U. L. L. I. B. L. E. -
As it's not an apc thing, see them m@sturbating and wailing at the same time.
They praised the meager N16B that was allegedly paid to affected Nigerians on the 700km coastal highway but are crying here....Una go cry taya..
Most of those affected don't have CofO...most even built on the wrong places on the Master plan. Those classified illegal are being considered for compensation...
Dem for give them 1bullion van each abi🤡
How do you expect someone with legal documentation like CofO to be paid the same as an illegal occupant who's being considered out of compassion Una no dey tink?
See that ftp 🤡 ranting about cost of building materials 🤣🤣🤣 is GSM responsible for the hike in cost of building materials ..you don't know who to blame for that?
GSM is no saint but non of your gods can stand near him.
The UK repartraites Nigerians everyday but they rolled out the welcome wagon (where propaganda machine paid nigerians £800 each to line up n sing mandate song- videos everywhere despite their denials 😎) for bat some weeks back...
Is the UK not still an ally of Nigeria? They even borrowed him money with direct instruction to expect more deportees
chopnaira: Sowore: Obi’s praise for north is hypocrisy — as Anambra governor, he repatriated northerners
Thats the thing...apc has no shame...from bubu time...
On a normal level, is bat or any of hisimps supposed to be campaigning at all...considering the situation No but much like bubu time, he'll come out tomorrow and say "well meaning Nigerians have begged him to continue"... Anti People Coalition 🤡🤡🤡
Unfortunately, most of those commenting seem not to understand the sarcasm in Kenya president's reply. He's not bragging about English...he's being sarcastic that despite all the 9ja grammar and best human capital...9ja doesn't have a working economy...na grammar dem sabi...that's what the man is saying.
Julibet: Our Government's failure to provide power has made us a laughing stock to the world.
This guy said he'll provide consistent power and after almost finishing his tenure, he hasn't. He should bury his head in shame.
They know how to deflect when asked direct questions.
sreamsense: That's a baby way of thinking. Citing irrelevant unprovable excuses. If not because Muslims married plenty wives and born plenty children in poverty, will they have needed external help in the first place talkless of misusing the fund?
If USA pity how you born children in poverty and how Muslims children are becoming raw materials for easy recruitment into banditry and Islamic terrorism, and give monetary help in form of USAID to fund education of your children, but instead your Muslim brothers diverted such money to fund terrorist camps knowingly or unknowingly.
Are you going to blame USA tht pity how you born children into poverty that are becoming raw materials for terrorism and banditry or you hold Muslims that diverted the money for misuse. Is it the duty of USA that gives you money to know each receiver to their family house.
If truly US fund Bokoharam and other terrorists, then to come openly and collect another one for this year. Tell Bokoharam and other Islamic terrorists to come with their ID cars as Islamic terrorists to collect for this year. There is no sense in your submission, it is just an Islamic propaganda to cover up criminality of your people
New footage from the Yuwe axis of the Sambisa Forest highlights the severe damage caused by precision airstrikes carried out by the Nigerian Air Force under Operation HADIN KAI in northeastern Borno State.
...not the classy Twilight kind but the evil disgusting Count Vladislav Dracular and Nosferatu kind. See that 🤡 mite saying "if it's true"....like his god asked "where are the cows"...sick
MrsAyomide: I don’t see the difference between supporters of this government and vampires…
They all derive pleasure from shedding of human blood..
Lamentations...but if them give you gun and uniform today now to go and deal with protesters who are fighting for things to change you will "obey before complain " and shoot at sight.
I really don't need all this info you referenced cos imo, no one misled anyone...only blind f*ols thought buhari would do anytging better or different considering his precedence and personality...the signs were clear...I petsonally never saw bubu and his band of liars/criminals as the way forward...bubu and all those who packaged him were obvious hypocrits but I guess Nigerians enjoy being gullible.
Most of those who supported bubu aren't supporting bat today except those "chopping"
Nigerians chose to be gullible especially our people who became myopic and tribalistic....now it'll take an act of God to redirect the nation.
Like I said in one of my previous posts at least now Nigerians now know how to pray correctly for not just change but positive change....unfortunately, they ain't ready yet.
anonimi: It means you should stone the hypocrites who misled us into this Tinubu continuum of APC extreme poverty shege, which was fraudulently sold as positive change 11 years ago.
2023: PDP and politics of healing Wike’s self-inflicted injury
Then, the race began in earnest for three years now, reaching a frenzy with the works of the two PDP committees on zoning. The first was the Gov Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi committee on the zoning of the PDP party offices. The Ugwuanyi committee quickly told the world the committee’s assignment did not cover zoning the office of the president. Though this was true, the question is: why didn’t the Ugwuanyi committee zone the PDP chairmanship to the North without aligning it to the divide that would produce the PDP presidential flag-bearer? The second committee headed by Gov Samuel Ortom of Benue state was specifically on the zoning of the presidential ticket and, with the votes of the representatives of all the 17 Southern states without any exception, the Committee unanimously recommended throwing open the PDP presidential ticket, which the PDP NEC simply upheld.
One thing irrefutably stands out – Wike shot himself in the leg. Here was a man who had an overarching influence on both committees but could not insist that the ticket be zoned South. Many had wondered why? The reason is also relatively in plain sight: the Southeast factor. As the clamour for zoning of the presidential ticket of the PDP to South reached its crescendo, many had pointed out the fact that though the PDP Constitution had prescribed zoning of the office of the president to be between North and South since the South-west and South-south had taken their turns in producing the president and the vice in this current dispensation in the persons of Olusegun Obasanjo and Goodluck Jonathan, zoning this time around, should not just be to the South but the Southeast.
Atiku Abubakar went a step further by offering to step down from the race if it would be agreed that the touted zoning to the South would mean micro-zoning to the Southeast. Wike and the rest could not take the Atiku challenge maybe because Atiku would likely back Peter Obi, who was his vice-presidential running mate in 2019 and an ally. The prospects of Peter Obi picking the ticket if PDP zoned South was so real compelling Wike to go for an open contest, believing he could pick it up ahead of Atiku, Tambuwal and Bala Mohammed, given his large war chest.
You'll have to answer your questions yourself o...
Does it mean it's right just cos it happened in those two scenarios you listed? Are the minorities in those states not clamoring for fairness and inclusion?
Nigeria and her states aren't the personal property of anyone or tribe.
anonimi: Why did an Ikwerre man Wike succeed another Ikwerre man Amaechi?
Why did an Ibadan man Makinde succeed another Ibadan man Ajimobi?
Eiya...fine girl like you...aside the conc intonation-no offence🙏
It's never too late though.
[quote author=Breaker001 post=139126610]A 37-year-old woman has sparked emotions online after opening up about her painful life story, blaming her current situation on years of sacrifice for her family.
According to her, she left Nigeria about 15 years ago, travelling through Libya and Italy before eventually settling in Germany, where she worked tirelessly to support her family back home.
In her words, she said:
“I blame my mother for everything I am going through right now, because no man wants to settle down with me. All my mates are married with children, I am the only one left. I will be 38 in the next two months, no child, no husband.”
She revealed that she started with cleaning jobs and later moved into caregiving, sending money home to build a house and improve her family’s living conditions.
However, instead of encouraging her to settle down, she said her mother urged her to focus on her siblings, asking her to bring them abroad and continue supporting them.
“My mother told me to forget about marriage and bring my siblings over. I struggled, worked two jobs, took loans, and brought them here. Immediately they settled, they got married and started their own lives,” she added.
She added that each time she brought up marriage, her mother discouraged her, insisting she was still young and needed to prioritize her family responsibilities first.
Now, years later, she feels left behind as her siblings have moved on with their lives, leaving her single and uncertain about her future.
“Now I am the only one left unmarried. I’m 37, no husband, no child, and my mother is still telling me to be careful and marry a man that will allow me to keep taking care of the family.”
She added that when she expressed her fears, her mother dismissed her concerns, saying marriage is not everything and that she could always adopt a child
My mother was the reason behind me not being married by now, each time I see a man who’s willing to marry me she will always say’ if I marry now who will help in training my siblings? and I’m closing to 40 years without husband and children, no one is ready to marry me again
