A Tale of Two Cities

Uyo vs Kigali

Lol, we've missed enough World Cups and are used to the feeling, don't know why they feel the need to bring drama every time it's starting to look like we'd miss another.

We can't miss the next one. This is a potential golden generation with the right coaching. We have the last 2 APOTY and many competent players. Also Yankee and Canada is accessible to many Nigerians, we go full stadium

Calculator people done come again

My bunk mate for Uni na him story you just tell, Year one he was very close to first class, By year 2 he was introduced to "Kashi"
By year 3 he has become an addict to betting. He will leave room going to class maybe Test dey at 12noon, he will just say let me bet N100 by 1130 he will be down say N5k, I will tell him guy your test is starting now He will ask me "Shey I wan leave 5k loss on table dey go for test ni" Make he try recover small.

Thats how one semester allowance will finish within 4hrs of betting, He will now start begging, or promising to help people take exams. It got to a stage he promised 3 people the same exam, same time and those he didnt show up for started chasing him around school. They caught him one day and beat him badly

He even did the same racket, promised exam runs for one girl wey be DPO sidechic, Police begin fnd am and he had to disappear from school for almost 1 semester leading to extra year

Today he isnt doing well at all, this was someone in his teenage years we all used to look up to him

My guy Kwame aka Calculus na the same thing. He was a bright boy hence his nickname Calculus

The first and only time I ever placed a bet in the bookies was following Kwame to go put £2 on the outcome of Porto Vs Monaco in 2004 UCL final, little did I know this has become a problem for Kwame. It was when his baby mother called us his friends to intervene in his matter that we knew the matter was serious. She was working while Kwame was in uni. Kwame will blow his student loan and start blowing money she brought home for groceries, failing to pay bills and absconding with money meant for the house upkeep.

Next thing you know Kwame and I will be en route to play for our uni football team, we are already cutting it fine for time, Kwame will say he needs to stop at cash point to withdraw money and place a bet before we travel. I stopped with Kwame at cash point, his hands were trembling, he will withdraw £10 and walk away from the cash point, leaving the £10 in the machine, his mind was so distracted. I will now pick the money and give him. Cut long story short, Kwame dropped out, and we heard around 2008 that he got caught in Canary Islands bringing drugs to UK (as a drug mule). His situation and need for cash must have got so desperate. This is not before dropping 2 more kids on that girl in quick succession. Kwame ended up with a long bid in Canary Islands, I think he got 10 year sentence. I wonder how she was coping with 3 kids and a delinquent baby father locked up abroad.

Last I spoke to a mutual friend a couple years ago, Kwame was back in UK, working as a driver for some escort agency (basically a pïmp/protector). He would drop the girls to wherever they were being hired and wait in the car till business is concluded peacefully. So I asked my guy to greet him and he also sent his greetings.

Kwame situation showed me to stay away from anything gambling, followed by one of my junior brother who wrecked himself gambling a few years later, which started with an innocuous trip to a casino and snowballed into something else. I won't go into his story cos village people are watching but like I always say, I'd rather become an alcoholic than a gambler

The Rwandan CB that didn't flee from Osimhen got his team punished with the 2nd goal.

This is a test whether the board has common sense or not

One single school out of 20,739 primary schools across the UK, but like the stupid idiot some are, this they think is UK policy.

Such idiots would likely claim all Nigerians are yahoos because of some few Nigerians yahoos.

Usual Maga tactic. Look for low probability anomalies and farm outrage. It's a successful tactic.

donjazzet:
This is very very disappointing coming from you. Words can't express my disappointment with this kind of sentiment. This is truly surprising coming from you and very careless.

Just like you are disappointed in Peter Obi, I'm in good company

This Gangs of London is too unrealistic

How can you murder a whole gypsy camp in UK? And in top of that, there was not a single child in the camp at night. I can't waste my time on this shït

Also too many short men as lead actors, their gangster is unbelievable

Iamoyindamola done recommend another nonsense

Boss, good evening please check if the Last one I sent is okay, I'm so sorry for always disturbing you sir.

No worries bros, I will check over the weekend. My connect is away on rig anyway till next month

Only Nigerians wear beach shorts you can't swim in

Can you swim in those shorts that are not waterproof and absorb water?

Awon drowning crew. Well it suits most Nigerians who take pictures at beach but can't enter water above knee height.

Even if this one is debatable, MAGA are authoritarian and will lock down American levers of power in subservience to the MAGA movement for decades to come. That's what Project 2025 is all about.

The only the these people know how to do is to lie.
Ibime could do a little research to find out what the truth is.

People criticize trump all the time. Why would border office decide to turn someone back for criticism? I am sure the guy was flagged that's why they checked his phone

I stand corrected if true

don't you think 💭 all is fair in fights and wars..
What she's doing is her own way of fighting back 🔙 from his opposition which is akpabio..

Like akpabio like tinubu,they own the institution,and the battleground to which these guys has captured won't be a fair ground for Natasha hence she chose to escalate it internationally with the sentiment whipping she's doing..

I don't see any police 🚨 calling here.. even thor she call police..
That adage no be for Naija gangsters..come see where yahoo boys dey use police and army tackle each other

Gangsters don't call Police bro. Like what is she hoping to achieve with all this? Get international support from sexual harassment activists against the Nigerian Government? How will this help her except ostracise her more from the chopping table. She is a gangster and gangsters don't break certain codes, because if they open file on her, there is more than enough to bury her. She is escalating unnecessarily and should leave the activism to clean hands like Chimamanda Adichie them.

The gangster code is best explained by these Jay Z lyrics. You can't be committing crimes and snitching on another nigga for his crimes against you. Man must have a code.


2 knocks on your door, one gun in your face
2 Blocks of C-4, I put one in your safe
Place the safe in the bath tub, I got one prior
You better hope this money don't catch fire
You so soft, no mask, no rope, one clip and I
Let this nigga run around untied
Haven't heard him in a while, and you know how come?
This little fãggot in the corner dialing 911
Snatched the phone, get a grip dog, you 'posed to be thug
What you telling the cop huh? I'm taking your money and drugs?
In the underworld, we take care of beef ourself
And another thing yo, we police ourself

Can't disapprove anything I say , eh?
One scientist is turned back , no reasons and all of a sudden a govt is fascist.
How many days is Tommy Robinson in solitary confinement in UK today ?
Take your self righteousness away. Liberals are the fascists.

Stop ranting. I am not a free speech absolutist neither are Europeans. Hate speech should be punished. So tell me why the scientist was turned away for merely criticising the President by the free speech absolutists.

basilico:
That explains why X is valued at $44 billion, after being called the worst investment ever. Because X is fascist , does not allow freedom of expression and bans everyone who doesn't worship Tesla?
The left is fascist. The right is righteous . The left is the one that blocks free speech ,cancels individuals and deplatforming others for daring oppose them.
How many people were fired for not taking covax?
Look at your EU imposing leaders across the block.. Ukraine, Georgia, Romania etc. That's upholding free speech.
Listen to yourself.

Ain't nobody got time for your rant

Omo, Netherlands dey play Spain ball

Netherlands only.weakness is striker and maybe a winger

They can put out a central midfield 3 that can only be matched by Portugal (Gravenberch, DeJong and Tijani) and their defence is the most stacked in the world

https://www.nairaland.com/8375359/french-space-researcher-denied-entry

"Free speech"has always been a fight for the fascists to lie without being fact checked. Fascists are the biggest opponents of free speech. They will lie, besmirch, intimidate and use levers of power to turn America into a uni party, just like their main man Viktor Orban has done in Hungary

This Natasha has a serious mental illness, she done carry her crocodile tears international

Will she tell Sky and BBC how many billions she stole or how many thugs she hired to beat and intimidate people during elections, or is she suffering from amnesia when it comes to that one

Gangsters don't call Police, (and she is a big gangster). What part of the game is this?

PDPGuy:
Terrorists are running wild in Zamfara, Sokoto, Katsina, Plateau, Benue, and Borno, yet no state of emergency. But in Rivers, where people are more focused on music, dance, and politics, they suddenly remember “security concerns.”

This isn’t about peace or governance—it’s about control. Tinubu and his people see Rivers as a goldmine, and they’re doing everything to seize it before 2027. If it were really about security, the military would be chasing bandits, not interfering in state politics.

Rivers people must wake up! This is not just politics—it’s a direct attack on their future. If they don’t fight back legally and politically, they’ll wake up one day to find their state completely hijacked.

Spoken like a true PDPGuy

BREAKING: ISWAP Terrorists Release Gruesome Video Of Sect Members Executing Three Nigerian Soldiers In Yobe

March 19, 2025

The Islamic State-backed faction of Boko Haram, the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP), formerly known as Jamā'at Ahl as-Sunnah lid-Da'wah wa'l-Jihād, has released a video showing the execution of three Nigerian soldiers.

In part of the video seen by SaharaReporters, the soldiers were shot dead by the insurgents with guns.

HansiBobo:
There's a saying in the Nigerian legal parlance that " a suspect is assumed innocent until proven guilty "....

The law deals only on facts and evidence

We ain't got time to figure it out while our only source of revenue goes up in flames

Personally I'm waiting for Fubara and Wike to spill the beans on the N400bln that Fubara was laundering for Wike. They will argue all manner of nonsense but carefully stay away from the crimes they committed together. Bastards both of them. One should win quickly and let us get on with our lives. Ain't got patience to take sides between the devil and his accomplice, nor am I foolish enough to seek salvation in a demon like Fubara. He made his bed, he should lie in it.

HansiBobo:
There's nothing Zulum did that Fubara did not do yet he was suspended.
Talking about aiding criminality, so far so good there's no evidence linking him to pipeline vandalism. For all we know, perhaps, it's a false flag hence giving a dog a bad name just to hang it.

Didn't Wike say he will blow the country?
Didn't he say he will put fire in state whose governors decide to interfere?

Could be a false flag but someone capable of burning HOA is more than capable of blowing pipeline.

liveLongNprospa:
So basically human lives nor get value 🤣🤣🤣🤣.
I just enjoy people admitting it.

You will see the impact on human lives when lack of oil revenue translates into the economy

Theflint1:
Well Tinubu is kinda a super boogeyman. So you think he didn't have several things put into consideration before he decided on this line of action, or that there weren't more diplomatic ways to go about things?

He knows whatever diplomatic path he'd have chosen would mean Wike's grip on the state weakening, and that's something he can't afford right now, especially with 2027 on the horizon.

Wake up and smell the coffee

2027 is already in the bag. Almost all Southern PDP Governors are subservient to Tinubu and will deliver except Osun which is inconsequential. Even Fubara would have delivered for him

This is simply about not killing the goose that lays the golden egg (oil revenue)

liveLongNprospa:
So what makes the SE states, Northern states that have LG's paying levies to bandits any different?

Why has he not declared SOE?

Materiality and foreign investment

You can't compare taxing LG for N2m here and there with taking out a $10m facility that generates $50m revenue
