Acidosis:
LMAO

You're telling a Nigerian rapper with over 25 million streams on one EP to find another job? A feat no other Nigerian rapper achieved in 2020

You mean a reality TV star, a brand ambassador/partner of Gotv, Orijin, Jumia, Mentos, Fire Condom, Beautiful Body UK, Oppo, Sickle Cell Foundation; a Chief, youth ambassador and member of Ogun state executive council to find another job?

What job do you have for him, please?

You just mentioned other jobs he already have. My point is that reality TV is not usually a boom in Nigeria, so if he is already brand ambassadors to all you mentioned, he can concentrate on that except he is just giving back to the society with the reality TV. It is not to demean what he is or has achieved but to say that people could be excited to view reality TV when it is first debuted, but holding their attention may be difficult especially if it is personalized. BBN has achieved that and for obvious reasons. I don't know how far Mercy and Ike went and other celebrities that have tried. But goodluck to him anyways.

This is just paid advert. Nothing more. How many reality shows in Nigeria has succeeded apart from BBN for obvious reasons? The man better find another job.

God bless you ojare. I said it then that some, like Kanu and his IPOBian disciples, were jubilating a 'job well done' prematurely because they could not see the big picture which is that they have shown their hands and genuine Lagosian now know who their enemies are and how to proceed going forward.

This is precisely what happened today with Lagosians unanimously standing together to shun this protest and turn their back on it.

Lagosians will remember Kanu and his IPOBians urging Lagos to be destroyed and for Enugu not to be touched. They will remember Kanu urging the mob to ensure Tinubu and Sanwo Olu do not "escape" while no such instruction was given as per Obiano etal.

Well Lagosians like you spoke loudly today and this is only the beginning of the end for enemies of Lagos and the SW.

How much was this one paid that he is this furious with the keyboard this morning. bro, calm down. Just collect you money and enjoy it in peace. You don't need to fight this hard to earn the stipend.

The Yorubas will soon find a way to blame the Igbos on this. It is a taboo to insult their new found masters - The North. Na Nigeria we dey and we move on. No one should complain. Everyone must bear his cross. We just re-elected Buhari less than two years ago, so our eyes are clear on the direction we wish to go and I think we are well in that direction.

It is not about Trump. Obama supported a Korean against NOI for World Bank President. It is a country where the President does not just take a position. It is institutional. America is a strong ally of South Korea, Nigeria is tilting towards China in trade which is against America's interest. The fact that NOI is our own sister doesn't mean everyone should support her.

The funny thing is that all those supporting Ordega and condemning those honoring Kiddwaya are not going to stage a rally to celebrate Ordega and others they feel deserve it. They just continue talking until the next BBN show, they carry on again. That is also our problem. The reason also we are not actively participating in politics, rather we criticize those who are there and call it dirty game. You can only change the world by taking a action.

What this means is that for a mild symptom that requires two weeks isolation, they will spend 1.4m. On what exactly. Okay, why not credit the patient with 500k and let him go home. You will see how the Corona will vanish in a twinkle of an eye once that alert enters. That way, government can save 900k per patient. Nigeria is really a scam!

Another hullabaloo of cluelessness.

Imagine a hub of 20 skilled Nigerians, housed in this big brother house and made to bring their talents to light (and not display nudity). Imagine a fusion of talents and industry? The resultant effect would be inventions and discoveries native to Nigeria, which would (perhaps) put us back on the global radar positively.

This your rant every year is not doing anything to end the show. You are rather contributing to the conversation which make the show trend. Since the last BBN, why didn't you organize this talent show you are talking about. Maybe that would have taken the shine off BBN. The organizers of BBN take action every year and smile to the bank with billions, we only criticize on Nairaland. Positive action is required to change any narrative.

Number one, the poster didn't attribute anything to Ugwuanyi, he only mentioned he drove round Enugu State. Enugu State as it is today is a progressive development from when it was the capital of Eastern region, through to when it was capital of old Anambra State till now. No one administration will lay claim to building Enugu as you may also want people to believe.

Umahi is a thief, he owns setraco the construction company building all the roads and bridges in the state, so who is getting richer? A lot of local governments does not access to water, electricity and healthcare, just building roads and bridges by enriching his pocket, people are very poor in ebonyi, I have lived there before!

Don't mind them. It is easy to deceive gullible Nigerians. We lack the strength of critical evaluation!

Politics › Re: Umahi Completes 5th Flyover In Ebonyi, 4 Others In Progress (Photos) by Holak: 11:14am On Jun 29, 2020

I commend the Ebonyi governor for his efforts. However, without sounding sarcastic, if you are building 9 fly-overs in Ebonyi, then it is a misplaced priority. First, the only city in Ebonyi that will require fly-overs is Abakaliki and I know it shouldn't be maybe one or two areas that such will be needed as priority. I want to say this to pin-point how our leaders prioritize projects they construct. My take is that because fly-overs are physical projects that are conspicuous, the governor is embarking on them to shine. That is usually the first diver for the projects our politicians embark on (Willie Obiano did the same thing). As I said, I commend him because others are not building anything (which is usually our defence for such). But in the 21st century, we should have moved governance past this. Government can never come up with any policy to better the lives of the people. Policies that will of course require them to sit down, think and spend money on things that are not seen physically but improved the lives of the people. They prefer to spend the allocations building fly-overs and big buildings with bogus contract sums so that people can point at them. Again, I am not saying these are not necessary but the motives are self-serving in most cases. And collecting allocations and awarding these contracts and collecting 20% is no-brainer. That is why anybody can be governor or President in Nigeria. You are not challenged mentally. Please this is not about Ebonyi man, generally applies to all politicans.

? The more you want to resist the temptation to join those that term this thing scam, the more NCDC tries to prove them right. So what magic did Kano do to reduce it to 1? If testing is reduced there, then what is the basis of sending these figures. The truth is that the number of infected persons is 100 times more than this in the country. What is the essence of data that is too far from reality. It can only deceive. Like in Kano, people will assume that the virus is gone and you wont blame them because that is what the figures say, but is that the reality? We are watching...

So Kogi and Cross River are in South East. These are statements that lead to bad blood in the country. The perception about COVID 19 is not a region thing. If for anything, it is only two governors of a state that have come out to officially pronounce their disbelief at least in the way it is being handled. None of those states are in SE.

Our standard in Africa is too low and too poor. The President of a country, in a national emergency, just appears in a ten minute recorded video to declare lockdown every two weeks. Not addressing any issue, not giving any plan on how to take care of the people within this period. In another clime, a President addresses the people everyday and entertains questions from journalists for more than an hour. Why do we have this low standard as a race?

When Buhari shut down Abuja, Lagos and Ogun, some people pointed out that he doesn't have those powers to do that including Prof. Wole Soyinka. Those who took these views came under the hammer as not being sensitive to the situation and pandering to constitutional provisions as against saving people's lives. Now, the same Federal government is quoting the Constitution to fault the actions of a governor who is also securing the lives of his citizens against COVID 19. I don't think FG has the moral right. Some people also supporting Wike opposed the FG on Constitutional grounds. We either decide to obey our laws or not.

That is the point. There seem to be a concerted effort to only portray negativity during this period, the reason I don't know. If you look at NCDC report, they have suddenly removed the number of people recovered from the sickness and only announce infected and death. Almost designed to instill fear.
