TravelRe: Six Countries That Grant Visas In 24 Hours Or Less by higgs: 2:35pm On Jul 08, 2025
It is all about efficiency. Delay does not neccessarily mean carefulness. If you have a checklist of visa requirements and a comprehensive database of undesirable aliens,you can even issue visas in less than 24 hours especially with digital tools and/ or AI
ayoolataiwo:
Visa in less than 24hrs?u must be joking,no wonder the countries mentioned,,how can a security conscious country give Visa in 24 hrs without proper security scrutiny

PoliticsRe: Nigeria Welcomes West Africa’s First LNG-Powered Container Ship by higgs: 11:46am On Jun 25, 2025
This ship uses LNG not CNG.The difference is energy density (LNG has more fuel in less space) and temperature of storage
RealGandalf:
Is this CNG really eco friendly? Why's this an achievement?

HealthRe: HIV Surge In Abuja & Lagos: Doctor Sounds Alarm After Personal Experience(video) by higgs: 5:42pm On Jun 22, 2025
Anyone who believes this cannot be a doctor. 75% means that three out of every 4 people in the country have HIV.It is a big lie.
HIV is a big problem, people should abstain or atleast use protection.But alarmists like this lady are not helping.
DrAda:
It doesn't matter what I believe. If the data clearly show that the prevalence has skyrocketed to 75%, your job, as a researcher, is to disprove this by pointing out any existing limitations in the report and going into the field to conduct your own study.
TravelRe: I Have Stopped Flying Airpeace ,Last One Was An Unused Ticket- Oshiomhole by higgs: 6:09pm On Jun 17, 2025
This is a guy who probably cannot even manage one molue bus.
Air Peace is not perfect but they have now operated for more than 10 years with zero accident related fatality. That is highly commendable. Oshiomhole should rest and enjoy the billions he made from being governor and currently a senator.
Foreign AffairsRe: US Weighing Options To Attack Iran, Demands Unconditional Surrender by higgs: 6:01pm On Jun 17, 2025
It is never a good idea to keep threatening others.The Iranian regime was always shouting "death to Isreal" and "death to America ".
Now the people they were threatening have had enough and decided to act.
Issuing threats while funding and arming Hamas,Hezbollah and the Houthis and at the same time trying to develop nuclear weapons is what caused this war.
TravelRe: The Moment The Sole Survivor Of The Air India Crash Walked To The Ambulance(pix) by higgs: 10:43am On Jun 15, 2025
His name is on the flight manifest. [Mquote author=Afrobasic post=135751279]I really have doubts about this guy's story.

Sole survivor walking away totally unhurt. Something smells fishy undecided

Seems to me he wasn't even on the plane to begin with, possibly a bystander who got bruised by debris.[/quote]
HealthRe: Doctor Not Nurse Refused To Treat Accident Victim At FMC, Abuja (Photos) by higgs: 4:21pm On Jun 11, 2025
He was not wrong.The hospital staff showed no sense of urgency in attending to the accident victim. An emergency should not be handled that
way.Imagine telling someone that brought an accident victim to hospital that you have no hand gloves?
ibechris:
I watched the video and the man in question was wrong.

He agitated the lady and i don't expect him making that video.

HealthRe: Nurse Refuses To Treat Accident Victim At Federal Medical Centre, Abuja by higgs: 8:19pm On Jun 09, 2025
You are heartless. One day you may also be an accident victim.If there is anything that prevents hospitals from treating accident victims, they should raise it with the authorities through NMA and the nurses association.We encourage evil and wickedness too much in this country
immortalcrown:
Is the good Samaritan willing to give the hospital his identity in case no one else shows up for the accident victim?

Nigerian database is too poor to support hospitals treating accident victims in certain situations. Many of you might claim that I am heartless. But isn't the nurse also a human? What if the victim fails to pay after treatment and the hospital mandates the nurse to pay the bill?

What if police later gets involved and detains the girl when no one else shows up for the victim? In Nigeria, some legal actions have been criminalised and poor people are the victims. For a nurse to boldly refuse to treat the victim, even when she knows she is being recorded, she must have had many bitter experiences in such cases.

PoliticsRe: No African Businessman Would Dare This — Isaac Fayose On Elon Vs. Trump by higgs: 3:04pm On Jun 06, 2025
No,the reason is stronger institutions. A strong judiciary will restrain a dictatorial president who tries to pursue personal vendettas
SmartPolician:
The reason is that in the west, leaders come to power to make positive impact, create jobs and make things better than they met it. There's a limit to the action Trump can take against Musk because he knows that Musk is the pride of America for being an extremely innovative billionaire who created tens of thousands of jobs and wealth in America and worldwide.

On the other hand, African leaders come to power to massage their egos and loot with reckless abandon. They don't care whether they create jobs or not. If you challenge them, they will introduce one policy that will see you return to your village broke or use security operatives to deal with you. That's why White South Africans argued, in the past, that black people have no business being in power.
PoliticsRe: I'm An Ikwerre Man, My Claiming Igbo Was Just Political - Rotimi Amaechi by higgs: 5:46pm On Jun 04, 2025
Amaechi is clearly an Igbo name.I read Elechi Amadi's The Concubine and the culture and tradition described there is obviously Igbo culture, all the gods mentioned are Igbo gods.However,I am of the belief that if a man proclaims he is not Igbo,we should accept and respect his wishes.

BusinessRe: Going Into Lending Business- Wish Me Well. by higgs: 9:26pm On May 31, 2025
Don't do it.
Leave lending for banks and other financial institutions. Use that 10m and go into business maybe become a sub distributor of a foodstuff or building material e.g rice,noodles, cement etc
Lending is a difficult and dangerous business, you may even lose your life.

PoliticsRe: NAFDAC Denies Extortion At Onitsha Market, Says Fine Was Imposed by higgs: 9:14pm On May 27, 2025
I am really embarrassed by what Nafdac has become. If truly the 700,000 naira payment is fine for storing drugs under poor conditions, the question then is:Do those who have paid and been allowed to open their shops now store drugs properly? Or are they permitted to store drugs anyhow as long as they pay Nafdac? May all the work Dora Akunyili and her team did not be in vain.

PoliticsRe: Peter Obi Calls Out NAFDAC Over Closure Of Market In Onitsha And Extortion by higgs: 10:15am On May 27, 2025
Nafdac should explain how extorting 700k each from hundreds of traders can help rid the society of fake drugs. Criminals who sell fake drugs, including Nafdac staff who collude with them, deserve the highest possible punishment. South Eastern leaders including governors,senators etc should hold Nafdac to account on this.

Do you think everyone is a christain like you? Polygamy is part of our culture
Klass99:
I think it should be criminalized across Naija to curb the excesses and arrogrance of Naija men when it comes to adultery.

I say this as a single woman who has been at the receiving end of far too many advances from married men. Most of them see nothing wrong with adultery, they make all kinds of excuses and arguments, to justify why it is not wrong.

Some will even argue that it is not a sin, it is an expression of love and feelings between a man and a woman. The way we practice this religion in Naija is too much, we over do it, blah blah blah blah. This is the latest argument I heard from a 60 year old married man grin.

I prayed for the salvation of his soul today. A lot of them think the bible is a joke and God is joking when he lists adultery as a sin. Perhaps making it a criminal offence may help to reset or rewire their brains.
