Layi4real: They have learn in the hard way. Anytime they hear the word Protest they will run away. This boys will never forgive Peter Obi and Tinubu because both has a role in there bn to prison.
OgaTheTop2: Your airport experience is a big lie! In all my years of traveling to Nigeria I have never witnessed, seen or experienced travelers slipping cash to officers to skip the line. So many airport lies against our custom officers are so terrible...Omo, naija people!
I agree with you on this. All the travellers ensure everyone remain in check until it is your turn to have your document stamped. Yeah customs and all get to be overly friendly because they require tips (tips also happen abroad just that it is not generally expected from officials) . Overall Nigeria is still home
Gistmedia10: How did he manage to convince them? Think about it—over 100 married women, many of whom were the wives of dignitaries. It wasn’t money, and it certainly wasn’t hunger that compelled them; these women had everything they needed. So, what was the allure? He wasn’t even the most handsome man in the country, and it wasn’t power either, given that many of these women were married to some of the most powerful men there.
Did Baltazar use some form of spiritual influence, like voodoo, juju, or even a sexual spell to manipulate them? What makes this situation even scarier is that his primary targets were the wives of influential figures. How could they let him record their encounters without fear of exposure? It’s chilling to consider how he managed to operate in plain sight.
This raises a critical point for men everywhere: it might be time to monitor your wives’ activities closely. Because even the most devoted spouse could unknowingly become someone else’s secret 'toy.'
The power of a good deek. It's no magic. Referrals was also at work. That simple
SIRAO: I am an Ngwa man. Otti is doing well. He will still win again.
Doubtless Otti is doing well, what I am interrogating is your claim that Ngwa people gave him support when we are all aware that your son Onye Ikpeazu is the person you all supported to continue ra ping Abia state, thankfully the returning INEC officer (the Prof) extricated the nut from the fire this time.
Your people should just stfu and enjoy good governance.
I witnessed one on my way to PH from Uyo axis. The officer reviewed the vehicle papers and still insisted the bus driver give him something. I was forced to shout at him and identify myself. He grudgingly stepped back. While the people empathize with the police for their poor welfare package, they have actually turned it to a right abi privilege.
promami: If Obi leaves LP and go-to another party and Otti goes to same party, it'd be clear he's riding on his back for victory. If he runs on ZLP to test his popularity, he won't win. But trust Abia people, whether he's in same party with Obi or not, they won't vote Otti again no matter who he is riding on. He has dealt with people so bad especially Ngwa people that gave him the mandate.
Even if you are typing from abroad, you mean you don't read about the politics of this country? Did you say Ngwa people gave him the mandate?
saphiere: Former aide to president Gooluck Ebele Johnathan, Mr Reno Omokri knocks UK government over asking Nigeria and other English speaking countries if they can speak English before granting them visa.
In a clip captured by WonderTV Media, Mr Reno was seen discussing with UK government officials.
I recall US Embassy asking my uncle a similar question. My uncle's response was epic. He told the minion, if your father ever attended a good high school in the states, I must have taught him English. He stood up and walked away. They sent his visa via courier to our house inside 48hrs
LandMann: Perhaps you are the clown's alternate account or his spokesperson. Nonetheless I'll school you. The same way you can't expect a doctor to be a mechanic to fix a spoilt car/truck, or be a pilot to fly an airplane or be a lawyer to represent a client in court or be an astronaut to fly a spacecraft, etc, same way you can't expect someone like VDM or any other Nigerian to single handedly fix all the problems of Nigeria.
VDM chose few out of the many problems in Nigeria as a niche, and so far he's been doing it well and has gained reputation for it.
If everyone starts picking a niche or subset of problems in Nigeria and tackling it, soon Nigeria will significantly address her most pressing problems.
In picking any niche, you must also do so within the level of power and resources you have to tackle the problems, cos the problem will fight back.
The clown you are speaking for does nothing but clown himself on NL in hopes of making people laugh. Do we need more laughter right now in Nigeria?
Why isn't the clown you are speaking for tackling all the problems he identified himself? Why is he calling someone else to tackle them? Is he mentally retarded or is he handicapped?
My point is, leave VDM alone. Support him were you can and shut up if you can't cos he's doing his best within his means.
Do your own so we can clap for you instead of trying to pull someone down, someone you don't feed or pay to do what he does.
Only witches and wizards do such.
Are you one? Is the clown you are speaking for one?
I noticed you scribbled, believe me I didn't read a word of whatever you had to say. You are roundly right. Enjoy your weekend and don't burst a vein. If it's about VDM, it's age thing for you and your peers, someone like me have outgrown that stage in my life when I play to the gallery. Again enjoy the rest of your weekend and don't be too hard on yourself.
ecomalchemistt: The question still remains , how would you Multiply 100M if you had it today ?
What business would you delve into ??
Practical ideas please, no motivational speakers !
My first advise will be that you invest at least N50m or more in money market while you think of how to turn the rest over in any business that you may be directed. What the money market does for you is to ensure that the money will at least bring in about N7m interest every 6 month (that's an average of N1m monthly) and ensure that the capital remains intact.
Nomerci: Just like me,I picked 5m by Feb,but August it remained just 500k.as I dey talknto u,I'm left with 100k. I feel broke.and client. O gree pay again.
In banky w voice
Maga no gree pay
Nice one. One of my investments returned something higher than 6m on six months basis. I am reinvesting the capital plus interest. Another returned about 3.5m. I am managing the interest and already reinvested the capital. I have known poverty before out of stubbornness
Mitsurugi: While the agent must always inform his principal on such issues (and the AG WAS WRONG) the reason Mr. Governor has adduced for not challenging the legality of the EFCC is watery. That a fake police officer helped you apprehend a thief and recover money does not legalize his status.
This goes to the root of the agency's legality and might help it eventually in its independence and effectiveness. Let the right thing be done. In law it is said that nothing can stand on nothing.
The only lone sensible voice. Nigerians don't just understand legality. No one is fighting EFCC but what some of us are saying is that its existence should be regularized.
SKhanmi: Most of them avoid building the legs because of the pain. The gluteus is the largest group of muscle in the body and working them with squats will have you walking on eggshells for most of the time , but it is still not an excuse. The calves are different, they are the most stubborn, if one isn't gifted with large calves normally, it would take years to grow to any reasonable size. The guy in the second pic actually builds his legs, the first might be genetic, the rest are just deliberately skipping leg day.
My trainer and I had running battle about my leg till he said he wasn't training me again and I started doing my stuff alone. I have just ensured that my upper body is not totally disproportionate to my legs. Leg training can be hard and painful and somehow you don't get to see the result as fast as you notice the biceps/triceps and chest. Stomach/tummy is another stubborn area. I have chosen to do the minimal things to remain fairly buff without stressing the legs. I can't can't.
StaffofOrayan: Yes! you lost the war woefully and still got 20 pounds, Most of you got your properties back! Look at Gaza and understand what war means
Logical argument is difficult for you. I will pass.
stuffs2002: The Ogonis fared better because they own their lands which the IIGB0S wanted to collect from them
....And the Igbos killed Saro Wiwa and the Ogoni 9 because of Ogoni land? I always laughed with relish whenever my project took me to Ogoni land, their kids walking around almost naked on bare feet within a terribly degraded environment - I remember the book, 'sunset at dawn' and how Ken sold out. He is continuing the fight now from wherever he is. The North remains Ogoni's best friend
StaffofOrayan: What exactly did you think would happen? That You would have access to your funds to prosecute the war? You lost your money, that should have been the end of that story, Infact in most civil wars, whole ethnicities are systematically wiped out But Awolowo was a gentleman, if not you would all be muslims by now
None of these bears any relationship to our argument. You said the Nigerian government dashed igbos money after the war. that is the crux of my argument. All these tonnes of bull you are trying to share doesn't concern me
ShescreamEWOOO: i would have called you a liar but that won't be fair because maybe this is how your parents told you the story.
Let me educate you, before the war, ojukwu told your people to change their Nigeria currency to biafra notes, many igbos did but ojukwu himself never did, unfact ojukwu was busy robbing central banks i.e the central bank in my city benin.
After the war, ojukwu himself ran away with Nigerian currency. The igbos that have their money in Nigerian notes were paid back by the exact amount, the ones ojukwu were able to deceive to change their notes to biafra notes were paid 20 pounds each. The 20 pounds was a gift.
Nobody ever lost a war and got paid, biafra were paid, as at 1970 20 pounds can comfortably buy a land.
I take it you are a living witness and saw everything first hand since according to you my father misled me. My father did not author all of the books I have read on post civil war in Nigeria. Read wide on the history before, during and post that war. Just to add, Ojukwu funded the war mostly with his father's wealth.
StaffofOrayan: Oga what do you think war means? U young boys think war is some game where everything returns to default after the conflict! In war people lose life, property and sanity!!!
You claimed Nigeria gave the losers money. I sought to burst your bubble. Don't derail from the argument
Ironbull: And may I ask my people "who then led igbo to Gowon to slaughter them?" I mean who took arms against the Fed govt of then that led to the massacre, has any of my people intelligent enough to ask Ojukwu this question? No absolutely no, only busy pointing accussed fingers to Gowon, Awolowo etc "if a wall is not cracked open lizards can never hide inside.
Our own person for a reason that can be talked out on round table discussion took arms against the govt even without due consultation with the elders he went to a war and 3million souls perished and no one dare ask him or question him it is a big f u c k e r y, how dare him?
Abeggy no one should annoy me this morning. Amadioha fire Ipob.
Igbos have a name for wayward children like you. There might be a need for DNA test to determine your true root. And No, I don't even know what IPOB is or stands for. I still argued with my townsman over the MNK stupidity and the other one abroad but as for the war stories, go and read Emeka Madiebo's book. It was your then elders that gave Ojukwu the go ahead to declare Biafra seeing the number of dead and decapitated bodies being brought in from Northern Nigeria on a full scale massacre. May I never be related to something like you. Tufiakwa
StaffofOrayan: Over the last 40 years nearly 20 African countries (or about 40 percent of Africa south of the Sahara (SSA)) have experienced at least one period of civil war.
Make Una rest abeg, Of all the civil wars in Africa, only Nigeria gave money to the losers of the war! Una no go move on?
This is the consequence of not teaching history in schools. Nigeria gave money to the losers by freezing all their accounts and ensuring everyone with an account received 20 pounds only irrespective of how much deposit they had in their account? Arguing with Nigerians can be annoyingly irritating because they don't know and don't also wish to learn
[quote author=naptu2 post=132498147][/quote]The same Nigeria where Igbos were being sought out and killed and decapitated in the North? The same Nigeria where cries of Ariba rented the air with every swish of a machete severing any and every available igbo man? we will never forget and our children will be taught to never forget.
[quote author=naptu2 post=132498125][/quote]Lies and more lies. Listen from 9.45 to 10.45 and tell me we are being true to ourselves as a country. There is a reason the good Lord is keeping him alive. I believe same reason the likes of IBB shall never taste death for a long time to come.
phemray: He travelled how many roads out of thousands of roads across Nigeria. He only went to where he has interest because of meeting what of the roads other people are using? Yes, good he said it can not be fixed overnight and that they should prioritise completing the existing ones. Where are the governors and representative of the states and LG where the road passed. When obi was a governor, what was his efforts in completing existing roads. PDP did not believe in infrastructures then. Were the federal roads in Anambra completed? No. Roads were awarded and politicians used it to suffer Thier people because of elections campaign. If he is the president, he will concentrate on other roads and not the ones he passed because he will not have any reason to pass there. The federal ministry of works has Thier strategy and they are doing it.
With people thinking the way you do, I have no hope in this nation. They are using our commonwealth to buy SUVs, refurbish the VPs accommodation, buy new jet in a fleet with other aircrafts, building new coastal road to nowhere and we are busy defending mediocrity. It is well with you people.
Yemi listen to yourself. How does your comment address the point Obi raised with supporting evidence. Must everything be politics? I don't even believe that Obi has the answer to the deep rooted and well seated problems but when someone highlights glaring issues, isn't it commonsensical that we should review them and make meaningful comments? Except we are bereft of ideas.
