Driver is a luxury most people won't use because they prefer to flex their car themselves but domestic staff plenty die, in those villages and towns families will even drop their kids with you for free as long as they get fed and educated just to live with you from church mosque and community. In those places paying 10k for housemaid is even considered wastage.

Drivers are only for retirees in those type of towns and it's not hard to get people who will do it in exchange for small money or even minor favors

In a family with one car, driver is expected to drop oga at work and continue on to drop the children at school. Pick madam and the children from school etc while oga is still at work. And at the end of the day, go and bring oga from his place of work after dropping kids home. It's about functionality, not whether oga likes to flex his car himself. Oga will flex on weekends and to church on Sunday, but drivers job covers the whole family waka.

Ibime, you were making excuses for that criminal.
Just as how they tried and failed to Protect Hunter's tax fraud, there is no conspiracy theory if anyone does not trust the investigators. who knows what he could have revealed if they let him testify under oat

Be quiet. Next time let investigators do their work instead of jumping at every conspiracy theory. Financial crimes are not unravelled overnight. Before arresting anyone, you must establish solid audit trails that will stand up in court. Financial crimes are not murder where you just arrest someone hoha. You can't just charge someone in 2 seconds for financial crimes, you must unravel it before you charge him. There was no conspiracy to protect him, investigators were still getting their facts together.

I can tell from the half baked points you made about SBF which are straight out of misinformation portals as if SBF is being defended by anyone and won't get his just due if found to be breaking the law

Bankruptcy process of a company takes time to establish where the assets and liabilities are, and.if the directors have committed any fraud in the course of their work

Enron filed for bankruptcy in Dec 2001, their CFO wasn't arrested until October 2002

FTX has just been assigned a CEO to oversee this process who is the same CEO that unravelled the mess at Enron

Secondly, there is little legal framework for Crypto. SBF executed a flywheel scheme which while being unethical may not be covered by laws as little or no laws have been passed for Crypto. Scheme illustrated below. To actually nab SBF, they will need more than flywheel scheme and need to establish whether he has transferred creditors assets to himself, which I'm sure they will be eager to do. The FBI has put in an extradition request to Bahamas for questioning. Note that questioning is different from charging. USA does not play with financial markets fraud regardless of who the offender is. Their whole financial system depends on it.

Similar scheme was executed by Do Kwon with Luna in Singapore which collapsed in March or so, and till date, Do Kwon has not been charged by Singapore authorities because there is little legal framework to do so.

At least he is not eating chickens in a black home. He is just encouraging people to seek God. We do hope he took Christianity more seriously like you said.

I cannot vote and where I work, I don't usually talk about politics, religion, or any sensitive matter with anyone. I no want wahala. People sabi hurt these days. even here on nairaland

Conspiracy theorists and childish people that would not allow DA do their investigation and bring solid evidence against Sam Bankman Fried, were shouting that he was being protected. As if Financial crimes are investigated overnight. What do you have to say now?

Trevor012:
No amount of epistles will change those stats from being poverty stricken when Ronaldo dropped a 42goal season from the wings winning both Epl and European Golden boot. By eye test you mean useless shaku shaku with poverty stricken numbers like Messi was dropping. Barca also went going trophy less under the so called 2nd best player finishing 3rd in la liga. Barca finished a whooping 19points behind Madrid lmao. Sit this one out chief

That's why Ronaldo won, nobody is dragging Ronaldo win, but Messi no2 is sure.

Trevor012:
Easily the 2nd best player In the world in 2007/2008 for carrying Barca to another trophy less season while finishing 3rd in la Liga with poverty stricken stats. You can see how Messi always had to do the bare minimum to get high places in FIFA awards.

Stats of the easily best player in the world 😂

La Liga: 10goals 😂

Champions league: 5goals with 4 coming in the group stage 😂

Messi was doing Shakuskaku pro max and getting 2nd Best player shouts just like Hazard vs Brazil 😂. Ronaldo had to lead United to a champions league and league double while a trophy less shaku shaku Messi with poverty stricken stats was getting a top 2 finish. FIFA we hail thee.

That's why Wikipedia and Gen Z takes can be quickly identified. Messi stats for a winger was one of the best that season. Aside Lampard, Ronaldo and Gerrard, players other than strikers haven't started posting numbers then. The world was still transitioning from 4-4-2 setups where only strikers were expected to score goals.

Figo and Zidane win WPOTY in 2001 and 2003 respectively with only 9 league goals and Ronaldinho won WPOTY in 2004 without lifting a trophy. Roberto Baggio did not lift a spoon to win it in 1993, and George Weah did not win more than French cup while also winning WPOTY

All Gen Z know is the stats and trophies driven world from 2009 onwards. Those days na eye test dey win individual trophies, not stats.

Naira should calm down small, some of us have transfer to make

Messi was easily the 2nd best player in the world in 07/08 and visually the best on eye test. Only Ronaldos UCL win took top spot away from him.

Kids wey been dey suck breast then will be commenting from Google and Wikipedia in 2024.

popizaino:
Why don't we approach Messi if he will come cus i cannot imagine in the life of me how a player who is better than everyone else decides to be plying his route in an inferior weaker MLS league while we still parade bums like Broja playing top flight football in Europe elite Club.

Forget age Messi can still give you top level performance for 5years.

lol. A little knowledge is a dangerous thing

Messi is earning humongous amounts with sponsorship deals running into the tens of millions tied to his presence in America. Inter Miami average ticket price is nearly $400 because of need to afford Messi

He also has right to own his own MLS franchise or collect a substantial percentage of Miami shares after his deal expires

Man is setting up his commercial future and legacy in America, the largest commercial market in the world, you want him to come and be a regular employee in England.

Less than 50% will japa. Japa no easy, requires huge funds. How many fit write Plab and usmle pass plus the comfort some have already is enough, no be everyone wan be millionaire like afrodoc2

There are still doctors in Nigeria who don't have a hospital to practice many of them going into other careers

I knew a few doctors who were in banking and consulting

Who will treat Nigerians? That's where pastor Chris, Odumeje, Oyedepo Adeboye etc come in
Plus woman wey dey sell agbo plus that guy wey own chemist by junction

Ngige a former minister who was a medical doctor by training once said we have too many doctors than we can employ and they should japa

Japa rate is high amongst Doctors. Dey play

Any doctor wey really mean am go Japa.

What about George foreman of foreman grills?

His autobiography hasn't made it to the app yet. That should be the most exciting one

She is, but I actually think she exaggerates her tales a bit.

Theflint1:
Won't be surprised it's probably Barca paying for his bail through the backdoor. 1M is a lot of money, even for a footballer.

I doubt it. If it's not Memphis alone, I won't rule out a collection of friends who don't want to put their name to it and jeopardise their sponsorships. It's plausible they sent Memphis to be the face since is a campaigner for such cases and doesn't have much to lose

afrodoc2:
I think they played together at Barca so they definitely known each other. Alves' Brazilian and long term Barca teammates failed him sha.

Apart from it being probably easy to get money from Memphis, he is a rebel, so this is the kind of cause he is likely to get behind.

I think it's the rebel part. I remember Memphis impassioned speech after Benjamin Mendy got acquitted. Memphis is a "campaigner" on this matter, but €1m for someone he barely knows like that shows a fool easily parted with his money.

I just finish Tyson, Ali and Joe Frazier autobiographies and in all cases, you can see how these guys ended up broke. No discipline with money at all. Moving on to Roberto Duran who suffered the same fate.

Incognito9:
Depay rescued alves

This guy get money pass sense

All the Brazilians wey dey dance Makossa with Alves inside dressing room no go save am, na Memphis wey no sabi Alves go save am

To comot money for this Memphis pocket go easy

🚨👍 German-Finnish entrepreneur, founder of the file sharing service "Mega Upload" Kim Dotcom recalled the words of the Chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley, who served from October 1, 2019 to September 30, 2023

“There shouldn’t be a single Russian who goes to bed without wondering if his throat will be cut in the middle of the night. You must organize a campaign on the home front."
- Mark Milley

We will repeat: “American terrorism carried out by Ukrainian militants.”👍🚨

Milley - legit target 🤯

Only on Putard thread will a criminal nutjob like Kim Dotcom be quoted daily

swiz123:


They called your dog useless and you agreed with such analysis . He claimed emphatically that Gallagher is not useful to the English team and therefore useless and you agreed with him. He even suggested they don't call him

I have no business with what position Galladog plays on the pitch. But if you agree with him that Galladog shouldn't feature for England and you want him to continue representing us, thunder will fire you!!

You are very foolish. There are many players that won't make England team that will favour us. I don't have Palmer anywhere near my ideal England squad, and he is favouring us.

He said nothing new other than what I've been saying. Gallagher is a CAM and I won't pick him ahead of Bellingham and Maddison, my 1st and 2nd choices for the CAM position.

Same way I won't pick Palmer ahead of Saka, Bowen, Foden, Bellingham or Maddison for the RW or CAM positions and Palmer won't make my England squad.

Ibime:
Judging Gallagher as a CM is a pointless exercise and a waste of time

Gallagher is a CAM and the difference between both positions is as wide as Gallagher's performance at West Brom vs his performance at Palace

Gallagher is a CAM, and his style of play is similar to Steven Gerrard. He does not have the care of the ball for the deeper positions just like Gerrard but is explosive in the final third. Gallagher is our best CAM if we choose to play with a CAM. Anything else is a monumental waste of his strengths

BlueRayDick:
Whst I posted is the current price in naira. I don't know at what exchange rate sha.

U can see it's on their letter head.

No doubt, they make their price more competitive online for Western price comparison sites

I've been looking at Eko hotel specifically for a trip in June over the last couple of weeks, weighing it up against a trip to Accra, which one go favour me.

ddippset:
So Dani Alvez can't afford €1million to post bail?

Wetin some of these guyz dey do with their money sef?

Simple, he is said to have career earnings of £50m, of which he may have received £25m after tax and even if he was prudent, he would have spent £5m of it just living.

I don't expect a man to have 1/20th of his net worth in cash. Any liquidity he had was burned on lawyers fees. When he sells one property, he would have it.

Jovi10:
And why will Russia kill it's own citizens in other to mobilize when she can just mobilize are people anyways? If they wanted to mobilize they will definitely do that without any reason, so why would they have to kill their own people as a reason to mobilize? The way una dey take reason sometimes self ehn! Baffles me.

Russia has a social contract with its people - don't get involved in politics and we won't mobilise. They need something like this to mobilise,and they need mobilisation to win the war cos the number of human losses per km gained is too high for their present numbers.

❗️Xu Jijun:

On March 22nd, in an interview with the media, the Press Secretary of the Russian President, Peskov, stated that with the active involvement of the West in the Russo-Ukrainian conflict, the so-called special military operation had de facto escalated into a "war."
Since the beginning of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict in 2022, Russia has consistently insisted that a "special military operation" is being conducted in Ukraine. However, Russian officials, including President Vladimir Putin, have now begun gradually to use the word to describe the Russian-Ukrainian conflict.
This indicates an escalation in the scale of the war. Since March, Russia has started targeting military and industrial objectives across Ukraine, signalling the beginning of a new stage of confrontation between Russia and the West in Ukraine.
It can confidently be said that the terrorist attack on the "Crocus" concert hall has closed the chapter on the Russo-Ukraini...

So it's now safe to call it a war?

Justice for the hundreds of good Russians imprisoned for calling it a war in the first place.

shoodboi2:
Why trying so hard to paint them as Muslims when they don't even understand basic Islamic principles?

Even a Muslim baby knows that you use the right hand for everything considered clean and the left for those considered unclean.

If the so-called Muslim terrorists are performing shahada with the left hand, what does that tell you? Are they Muslims, or people paid to disguise as Muslims?

If they are fake, they are FSB plants

Ukraine has no reason to give Russia excuse for general mobilisation

Putin is the one who needs general mobilisation of Russians, perfectly timed after election

swiz123:
I love the way you tactfully called Gallagher useless. Something so glaring but can't be seen by your friend.

Unlike you disgraced pundit, he has eyes to see that Gallagher is an AM. I've always maintained that Gallagher is not a deep lying midfielder cos he lacks care of the ball. His strength lies in the 2nd run into the box. I am not at odds with his analysis, it tallies with mine 100%

USAfall2024:
Foden is likely to be an impact player from the bench at the Euros. Like you said: Saka offers more width and penetration than him at the RW. Also true for the LWs where the likes of Rashford, Gordon, or even Sterling are better options IMO. Foden's main competition should be Bellingham but from the past year's England games (including yesterday's), I think it's clear that Bellingham brings more to the team than him and has better a dynamic with Kane's tendency to drop back into MF role. Foden couldn't impose himself yesterday and was barely existent when he moved to the 10 role after the Bellingham sub.

If Man City goes on to win big trophies this season, Southgate will be in a very difficult position. He knows starting Foden from the bench might be the best tactical setup but that will incur the wrath of English fans who rates Foden as the best English talent. Walahi, big decisions ain't easy as a Coach but a man with balls has to make them!

Southgate is in no difficult position

It's very clear to me. Foden is a bench player for England

If Southgate mumu, he should let pundits pressure get to him
