Politics › Re: 'You have failed, follow Starmer's example and resign' - Peter Obi to Tinubu by higgs: 7:58pm On Jun 22
Tinubu asked GEJ to resign and he was right because GEJ was performing poorly
We are also right to call for Tinubu's resignation because his performance has been abysmal, much worse than GEJ.He should do the honourable thing and resign.
Business › Re: Historical Accounts Of Textile Factories In Nigeria by higgs: 8:03am On Jun 19
Nigeria has no industrial policy. If you even manage to set up a factory business, corrupt and predatory civil servants/politicians will keep extorting you until you give up and quit.Even Dangote may eventually give up with the level of sabotage he suffers from unscrupulous government officials.
Crime › Re: Father Mbaka Slams Makinde Over Oyo Children Kidnapping (Video) by higgs: 10:14pm On Jun 08
I sincerely don't know why it is taking so long to change the laws and allow state police.It is already obvious that current security arrangements cannot protect Nigerians.
Politics › Re: Obi To Youths: Don’t Expect Adeboye To Champion Change At 84. by higgs: 7:24pm On Jun 04
Obi is a democrat.He believes in peaceful change through free and fair elections.Citizens should be alert and ensure the coming elections are not compromised by vested interests.
akingold2:
Obi himself should champion the resistance against this disastrous Tinubu regime. Sowore is even trying.

Don't mind some of these people. He obviously makes these statements after smoking something.
helinues:
Something is wrong with this guy.. Children are kidnapped and you are talking about threatening.

Wouldn't the names be useful now to know who we are facing?
Crime › Re: Kidnappings In Ogun: Bag Used To Deliver Ransom Found In Seriki Fulani’s Kitchen by higgs: 8:42pm On May 30
A convicted kidnappers was given only 5 years imprisonment in a country where so many people have been murdered by kidnappers? One man has 30 children. I am sorry to say it but this problem will never end in Nigeria. We are an unserious and dishonest country
Politics › Re: Nnenna Oti Bus Terminal Umuahia: Abia Governor Honours INEC Returning Officer by higgs: 5:36pm On May 28
This is good. Nigeria's problem is a moral problem
Many Nigerians will sell their mothers for money if the price is right. It is good to appreciate and recognise those who act morally and courageously.
Politics › Re: Don’t You Dare!” – Oby Ezekwesili Blasts Bola Ahmed Tinubu On Children’s Day by higgs: 9:56am On May 28
You have summarised the situation. Many of these people do not really care if their people are being killed as long as the president is from their part of the country. We also saw the same thing with some northerners when Buhari was president.
1vandragon:
Well, bat will continue to turn deaf ears to calls for good governance.

Afterall, that same Orile LG where the kidnapping happened turned out to vote overwhelming in the just concluded apc presidential primaries. And this was after the beheading of the teacher by terrorists.

That primary would have been an avenue to send a strong message by the apc people in the LG either not voting in the primaries or voting against bat as a form of protest votes.

But since they voted for bat, his mind set is that even with his incompetence, he will still secure sufficient votes.

Some of you are just completely useless and hopeless. Your father doesn't owe you money. You should even be grateful if he gave you an education
Freshtruth:
Don't blame the young man some father's are wicked to their own my own father build 2 big hotels sold the 2 hotels for no reason mind u I was suffering badly as a son of a rich man if u no dey the family no blame the young man .
Travel › Re: Nigerian Businessman Sold Everything And Left The Country (Before & After) by higgs: 2:32pm On May 22
Required working capital for businesses more than doubled.CBN increased MPR so much that banks are lending to businesses at rates of 36% - 40%.
Truly,doing business in Nigeria is not for the faint hearted.
Celebrities › Re: Tioruju Mondusi: My Wife Confessed That 2 Out Of My 5 Children Are Not Mine by higgs: 3:59pm On May 18
Ha ha ha. Should we tell him? Keep deceiving yourself. Only a dna test can prove paternity conclusively.Ofcourse it is good if you trust your wife and see no need for the test,marriage is all about
trust.But you see all this "The child resembles me",forget it
Focusmind:
It also baffles me

The very day my kids were born, i mediately saw my and family features in them - very easy to see

Check the nose, the baby's yawning style, ear, lips and hair strands, especially the foreheads.

Get your own picture when you were born and compare it with your newly born baby

Men that are not involved in the growth of their kids are the people that likely gets this kind of surprise package from the wife.

When you are involved in the life of your child, it becomes easy for you to notice certain behavioral traits.

I bathed my kids when they were small and I talked to them, carried them, looked them face-to-face and i was involved.

There is no way you will not see your features or that of your family

Once you do not see any, you raise alarm and quietly do the DNA if you want.

NOTABLE TERRORIST LEADER THAT TRUMP INVITED TO THE WHITE US AFTER MAKING HIM THE PRESIDENT OF SYRIA.
Politics › Re: State Visits Not Tourism But Serious Business - Peter Obi; Tinubu's Aide Reacts by higgs: 3:03pm On May 16
You are probably not even intelligent enough to trade at container scale, if not why will you leave the substance of the critique and resort to asinine personal attacks? The point is valid,the Nigerian
president travels with mostly politicians and aides.
TimeManager:
This Peter Obi is a first class dullard, a third class container trader. President Tinubu has always been travelling with a few top Nigerian CEOs in attendance to facilitate investment opportunities.
Ironically, this same man and his noisy supporters would still complain if Tinubu travels with a large entourage as Trump did. Yet he is commending Trump who visited China in company of 20 of his oligarchy friends which is purely self serving, having nothing to do with the overall interests of America.

Travel › Re: Is Air Peace Reliable? Share Your Experience by higgs: 6:27am On May 13
Aviation is one business where many Nigerians have tried and failed.We must commend Air Peace for operating for more than a decade without any fatal crash.They are obviously doing something right.As a frequent traveller, I have experienced delayed flights with them but the percentage of flights that were delayed has been low.God bless them and may they keep getting better.

Christianity Etc › Re: Atheists In The House, What's The Source Of Your Morality? by higgs: 10:51am On Apr 26
Nigerians are some of the most immoral people I know. That is why our country is one of the most corrupt in the world. At the same time,we are one of the most religious places on earth. Back to the topic, religion is not needed for one to have a moral framework. A moral framework can exist without religion and the individual will function optimally as long as his moral values do not contradict the laws of the society in which he lives.This is why countries with a large population of atheists like China can have more law and order than very religious countries like Nigeria. If the ultimate validatior and source of morality is religion, then it can be argued that BH terrorists are not doing anything wrong because they are acting out of religious conviction (according to their misguided understanding) It is clear that the OP is not well trained in logical thinking and reasoning.

P.S I am not an atheist.
Travel › Re: Fulani Traveller Forced Off A Bus To Calabar After Passengers Complained by higgs: 6:38pm On Apr 24
Are you not in Nigeria? Why are you talking about brushing and bathing? Are you not aware that the reason the other passengers are afraid of the guy because of all the kidnapping and killing going on?
budaatum:
Entering bus is not democracy. You pay your fare and travel or walk!! And you do not need to lie that he "never brush and bathe, looking unkempt", and the fact you lie belittles your position.

I hope he sues the company for discriminating against him, since passengers should not be determining the companies policy.
Family › Re: As A Man, "Endure”, Nearly Destroyed My Life by higgs: 12:30pm On Apr 23
This is obviously a fake story to advertise a business namely;the counselling service. I think a transparent persuasive advertisement is better.
Family › Re: Marital Crossroads by higgs: 11:45am On Apr 23
He is not "washing his dirty linen in public" This is a nameless forum.If what he said is true,then the wife is obviously the type who only respects a man when he is financially comfortable. Double your hustle Bro,hopefully things will improve .
Pkay28:
As a man, you don’t have to wash your dirty linen in public. Have you had a proper heart-to-heart conversation with her? She only gossiped with her friend, yet here you are, sharing your issues with the whole of Naija.
She’s nagging? So are you. She’s complaining? So are you. Brother, she is your mirror — she is reflecting you.
You dated for three years. That’s long enough to truly know someone. Life in a new country will humble you, especially as a man.
My cousin once told me about their early days in Canada. During one of their quarrels, his wife called the police. Today, they are a happy family of five. I asked him what changed. He said he spoke only to his eldest brother, who challenged him to “chest” whatever his wife was saying, stay focused, provide for the family, and be the best version of himself as a man and husband.
His brother, who lives in Spain, gave him solid advice. He took it seriously: stopped attacking his wife with words, enrolled in courses, took survival jobs, and even sold okpa at some point. But most importantly, one night he sat his wife down, spoke to her calmly and lovingly, reassured her that their situation would improve, and asked for her belief and support. According to him, that single night changed everything.
He stayed focused, kept working, and eventually landed a good-paying job in real estate. Their lives transformed. It’s been three years now, and they have achieved a lot: the Canadian government support helped them save money, especially after their third child. They now own a good bedroom apartment, a car, and his wife is in nursing school. He has also successfully built a four-bedroom duplex back home in Nigeria.
To this day, no one in the family — not even his friends or sisters — knows about their past struggles. Only his brother knew. He only shared with me because I sought his advice, and he warned me not to mention it to anyone else.
Sir, this is your cue. Take that quiet night, have a sincere heart-to-heart talk with her. Reassure her, pray together, and stop dismissing her efforts. She’s pregnant — that child will open doors for both of you. But if you handle it anyhow, you will see pepper.
Please, be like my cousin. Rise up again as the man of the house and get your game back on. God bless you.

Foreign Affairs › Re: Israeli Military Replaces Crucifix Statue Of Jesus Destroyed In Southern Lebanon by higgs: 3:39pm On Apr 22
The great lesson to learn from this incident is that Christians did not go on rampage killing and maiming anyone.People of a certain religion need to learn to be tolerant like Christians. It is also good that the Israeli army did not deny the incident. Rather they apologised and took necessary actions.
Foreign Affairs › Re: Israeli Military Probes Soldier Who Smashed Jesus Statue In Southern Lebanon by higgs: 5:01pm On Apr 20
We are Christians,we don't fight for God.The statue is just a symbol and nothing more.Even if the IDF authorities don't punish the soldier ,we will only pray for him to repent and for God to touch his heart and free him from anger which causes such actions.May the blessings and peace of the Lord Jesus Christ be upon him,Amen.

In punishing this woman,the husband is also punishing himself because people will refer to him as "that woman's husband " forever. He should have just left the marriage...
Foreign Affairs › Re: The War Is Turning Iran Into A Major World Power - Dr. Robert A. Pape by higgs: 3:35pm On Apr 11
This professor is professing rubbish. Losing your head of state and top military command easily, completely losing your air space to foreign powers etc,these are not the characteristics of a world power.The Iranians are quite formidable and resilient because they don't fear death,which is quite common with people who have a religious ideology.The Americans are negotiating because they don't want American casualties which they will definitely have if they do a ground invasion.

How can people embezzle funds meant for maintenance of vehicles on which their lives literally depend? Corruption is truly a deadly sickness that first makes Nigerians foolish before killing them.
Crime › Re: Suspected Bandit Arrested While Travelling From Kogi To Join ISWAP by higgs: 11:54am On Apr 05
Right to bear arms does not mean right to execute
people without trial and due process. We need a functioning judiciary and more effective law enforcement not jungle justice
Gotocourt:
Why arrest angry instead of outright execution 📌💯🤷🏿.

We need the second amendment law just like in the United States of America 📌💯.

Ratified in 1791 as part of the Bill of Rights, the Second Amendment states:

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed".

It protects an individual's right to own firearms, a right confirmed by the Supreme Court to extend to self-defense within the home and, generally, in public.
Foreign Affairs › Re: Protest Against Igbo King In Eastern Cape Turns Violent, Properties Burnt by higgs: 7:16pm On Mar 30
Historically, we had no kings in Igbo land,we had our own form of traditional democracy. The British bastardised our culture by introducing warrant chiefs inorder to implement their indirect rule model which was also being implemented in other parts of the new country called Nigeria. Since then,some Igbos have become completely obsessed with the idea of kingship.Nollywood is not helping matters either. As for the South Africans,it is obvious their xenophobic fever has flared again. They need a dose of humanity.
Politics › Re: Aba’s Garment, Footwear Industry Can Rival Oil Revenue — Peter Obi by higgs: 3:04pm On Mar 29
It is very true.Do you even know the usd value of textiles we import from Asia annually? Now imagine if all that domestic demand is met locally and a big surplus is still produced and exported.Lets leave ethnicity and religion and use our brains.Good leadership is critical
Richtaiwo:
Here he goes again with another dubious claim. Aba footwear surpassing Nigeria’s oil revenue? If that were true, what is stopping them from fully pursuing such a lucrative venture?

This fraud needs to learn to distinguish between fantasy and reality, because Nigerians are far more concerned with facts than with superficial claims that can convince a baby goat.
