This is what happens when you decide to centralize printing of licences, using cronies who hire incompetent staff and are illequipped.
The same mistake has been repeated on international passports , people have to wait up to 2 years to get drivers license and passports if they don't pay bribes to corrupt staff.
Drivers license that in some countries you can just walk up to a machine and print in less than 5 minutes.

Nigeria we hell.

Out of the mouth, the abundance of the heart speaks.

So Lagos is now your promised land by divine right from God to alleviate you Ibos above the owners of the land.

This thing you guys are doing with your untrained and mannerless mouths will backfire on you all.

The pogroms in the north did not just start one day.

Northerners had been bearing your collective insults on them for years prior to the coup of Jan 15.

Even afterthe coup,your people increased the insults and baragging on the mourning northerners.

Look what the result of that collective stupidity and how no one extended a shred of sympathy to you.


Yorubas will not go the way of the north but they will use every legal means to frustrate you back to your place as a migrant economic settler that you are.

Imagine a major tribe misbehaving everywhere.

which country colonized england? Which country colonized France? They are the colonizers. Forget ancient history of wars and invasions, no country colonized France and England.
Even Afghanistan has never been colonized

It is good to be consistently objective. She kidnapped those kids first and took them away from their father. Their father has now retaliated. That is good. Now she should go and do what she should have done in the first place i.e invite the Family court to mediate between her and her husband on how they will both take responsibility for their kids, including where the kids will live and when.

She had no right to have taken the kids in the first place. When relationships between two citizens fail or get into trouble, you invite law enforcement. Ask her to go to family court who will then ensure that she and her husband have an equal "joy" in having the kids and raising them. She should stop making noise in public.

We should also use this opportunity to educate especially women on this. The child does not belong to you alone.Always invite the courts if and when you and your spouse cannot reach an amicable agreement on where and how often your kids should be with each of you, after separation or divorce.

Does this amebo and self acclaimed professor of guesstimation aware that the father of the deceased has come out openly to tell us he was the one that pleaded for pardon for the woman.
After sitting down on his laptop writing his usual bullcrap, he will then come back to retract as he had done several times.

I hope you know that old cat lady and spinster is no longer the insult it used to be 100 years ago.

Many western ladies are choosing that lifestyle to have a peaceful and drama free life

Oga stop being so negative. Even if it’s not concrete, people that were not thinking before are now thinking. Shell just confirmed $2b invested yesterday. Qatar just announced $300b investment commitment in Nigeria over the next 10yrs.

For Gods sake you can criticize the govt and acknowledge the gains. Not every time politics. At the end of the day, whether you support Tinubu or Obi, they will come and go and Nigeria will remain. It’s Nigerians That will enjoy or suffer whether or not investors come to Nigeria or not. Celebrate any investment irrespective of who is in power because the investors don’t ask who you support when they create the jobs.

What’s wrong with you people?

People with investment funds who make decisions devoid of emotions have seen the wind, you are still waiting to see the wind?

Fortunately, a child is made by both a man and a woman. When she is done crying, she should go find the father of the child, either put him on child support immediately, or give the child over to him to raise, and have the authorities aware of this, so anything that happens to that child will not go uninvestigated.

This does not change anything.

The elephant in the room is the massive subsidy on power, and the underpaying of discos by a large percentage of nigerians. As well as the fact that at least 30% of nigerians do not pay for power, and less than 20% of nigerians actually pay above market price.

No matter how many times you change discos and gencos, the problem will still remain.

And anytime discos cut power, nigerians use violent means to intimidate them to restore power,or bribery, and the power theft and underpaying continues.

And we expect a sector that made less than 360 million pounds sterling equivalent last year to be like the UK power sector that made about 1 billion pounds annually in the last 4 years.?

Nigerians self. Even Aso rock is running away from the grid...as are many Nigerians, meaning customers are also reducing..

And we expect 24 hour light. Okay....call me when you wake up from the dream that you travelled to London after buying airplane ticket for N1000 only.

My President has spoken and the keyboard workers can now react to receive their stipend

The fact is whoever becomes the next President from the North, East or South-South after Tinubu whether in 2027 or 2031 must ensure Lagos is redistributed across Nigeria...how?

...by ensuring International Airports and Seaports are 100% functional in other parts of the country; if I can return to Australia by flying through my State Airport in Akwa-Ibom and I can send some goods through Ibom-deep seaport, tell me wetin go carry my leg go Lagos when I have the business minded Igbos surrounding my State.

As much as I have soft spot for GEJ, he messed up big time by not making it mandatory for Seaports and International Airports to be functional 100% in the South-South.

Australia with little less than 28million people has about 70 functional Seaports and 13 international airports.

What kind of Mumu leaders do we have from other regions who are so comfortable with the status-quo; allowing for the major ingredient of development to be in one Bleep..ing state and yet comfortable with it.

This must change, only a change will shut some people up finally

It was this bright when I saw something like a horse-like ship fly across the moon around this time 2 decades back

It's beautiful

What the hell is wrong this days ..I can say yes tinubu has tried to stabilize the economy..u can argue with your keyboards.but this security issue.. Tinubu has to get external help like tackle this thing before it got late like Gej did ..Gej got external help late ..that's why he lost the election..if tinubu face just economy and not security we will go back to square one

I am from Asaba and I am a complete Igbo man to the core. I will never forget the Asaba massacre during the civil war,where hundreds of our brothers and relatives were massacred by deception by the invading Nigerian army,simply because we are Igbos. May the soul of my igbo brothers massacred on that day(known as the Asaba massacre)by Nigerian soldiers,rest in perfect peace,Amen!
You will forever be rembered,the blood of saints waters the trees of freedom.

Basic:
I'm not surprised one bit. And a lot more of similar incidents should be expected over time.

I've always respected Igbos for their resilience, creativity, and business acumen. That traditional business mentorship strategy that involves sending an Igbo boy to Lagos to work with an established boss who in turn establishes him after some years is one of the most effective business schooling systems I've ever known of.

But the problem now is, most Igbo youths of today want to be like the Igbo big men who went through that system BUT are not ready to go through the system themselves. Many of them now prefer to waste their time on social media and argue over frivolous topics. And when the issue of making money comes up, they start chasing shadows and want the easier way out -- not the system that has worked for successful Igbos for years.
