If there's a day as it goes by Reno didn't say something that concerns the incoming president of federal republic of Nigeria.

Someone close to Reno should dial ambulance number .

*The Parable Of a Talent*

*Peter Obi* was given a Talent. He imported foreign goods into Nigeria, sold them and made huge profits. He sent his profits to tax havens in the Bahamas. The Nigerian local companies collapsed and sent away their workers. The lack of jobs created insecurity, government is not receiving enough taxes because most people had no jobs, social infrastructure collapsed and poverty became part of people's lives.

*Abubakar Atiku* was given a Talent, he bought all government owned companies at very cheap rates. Sent the workers packing creating unemployment, poverty and insecurity. He stripped the assets of these companies and sold them at great profits. He decided to warehouse his loot in Dubai where he is currently residing.

*Bola Tinubu** was given a Talent. He invited the best brains, they developed a master plan. He employed the best hands for the implementation of the master plan. He invested the Talent in Systems, People and Infrastructure.
He created jobs, reformed laws, improved on the ease of doing business, he created opportunities, people were trooping to Lagos for a piece good life and new wealth. Taxes were collected. Lagos moved from 600million naira a month to 50billion naira a month and still counting .

Make your choice. I cannot make it clearer than this.
The difference is clear just like 7up.�����‍♂.

Centurion101:
I write this story to encourage people to always help if they are in a position to do so, especially is the situation is dire. What goes around comes around and you might just find yourself in a situation where you Will need help from strangers and hope they help you too.

Days ago I was in my neighborhood in South West running some errands at around 9pm on Sunday when I found myself in a very busy road packed to the brim end to end with cars stuck in a hold up trying to beat the jam to get to Thier respective destinations.

I turned the ignition off since I've already spent like 20minutes without moving an inch, a few seconds later I heard a loud bang it was a speeding bike who wanted to use it's small size to it's advantage to beat the traffic, upon close inspection I realized the bike has Just hit a guy with full force and ran away.

Consequently people came out to check on the guy that was hit,he was unconscious bleeding from the back of his head and face, unfortunately the bike's force banged him right into a very big cement structure that would probably weigh a couple of tons.

Nigerians being Nigerians started praying and speaking in tongues instead of administering aid to the guy, nobody was willing to touch him,there were just shouting and saying he is probably dead and they don't want police to charge them with his death.

At this point I tried to control the crowd to disperse and at least give this guy room to breathe and get some fresh air hoping that might resuscitate him,but there were like 50people gathering there and there is only so much a single person can do.

So realizing no one was willing to help this guy I fought my way through them ruggedly to get to the guy I realized he has a broken leg and arm and he was bleeding heavily but he has a pulse and he is not dead,
I don't know what I was thinking or what power came over me but the fact that he is alive made a difference to me and I said to myself I will take him to the hospital even if I have to carry him on my back and trek there.
I asked a man to help me Carry him, he asked do I know the victim and I answered yes,he is my junior brother.

so they helped me lift him up and I carried him on my back and began to speed, now the next thing was how to get transportation,we are in a hold up and no car is moving, by this point the crowds has dispersed and left me alone to tend to my PROBLEM.

I locked my car , sat the guy close to the side of the road ,I tried to find something that could apply pressure to reduce the bleeding,then it dawned on me that a cloth will do just fine,so I removed my shirt and tied it around his leg where he was bleeding the most.

Like I said earlier the task at hand was how to get transportation to the closest hospital, I began flagging down bikes but none of them stopped out of fear until I literarily ran in front of one forcing him to stop and told him to take me to the next hospital,I was about to start begging him to not let this guy die because of fear when this guy got down from his bike offering to help lift him so we can take him to the hospital,I don't know if it's God that sent him or it was just pure luck but he helped and we put the victim in the middle and started our journey to the hospital.

On the way I checked the guy's pulse and breathing like every second, telling him he's going to live one way or the other because my work will not be in vain. As God will have it he opened his eyes but he was still incoherent and totally out of it ,but at least now his eyes is opened and he is not laying down like a dead man,that kind of gave me an atom of hope.

Moments later we arrived at a private hospital and they were just about to close, apparently they had some issues with the workers that were supposed to cover a night shift, infact there was only one doctor on call and a few nurses around so it was all hands on deck, the victim was stretched in and as per private hospital wahala they demanded card and treatment fee up front, I even begged them to at least priorities the guy's life first but they said no money no treatment,so I paid for card, admission fee and treatment, it was 33,000 naira

After payment the doctor came in with the nurses and started working Thier magic, giving him some injections , cleaning his wounds,they even plugged him up with something that aided his breathing (I don't know what the thing is called).

After a couple of hours around 11:30pm the doctors came out and told me he was stable,that he had some internal bleedings that has Been stopped and he is responding fine to the treatment,they said I can go and see him if I wanted.

I went into the ward and checked up on him,he was heavily medicated and he couldn't really say anything that makes sense,he was just fixated on my face, strolling in and out of consciousness.

I slept in the hospital and the following morning around 8am he was awake and fine ,so I went to see him and when he saw me,he just started crying uncontrollably saying THANK YOU like a hundred times without stopping, this kind of made me a bit emotional because I've not really seen a lot of grown men cry.
He gave me his phone and I contacted his family members and told them what Happened, his mother almost passed out on the call, some minutes later they all rushed into the hospital. I peeked at them through the glass window when they went to his ward,the relief and joy in Thier faces is one of the most beautiful things I've seen in my life.

I left my number with the nurses there and told them to give to the guy when he is discharged and I made my way down to fetch my car, hoping and praying fervently that the car is still there and that was it.

That 33k was the best thing I've paid for in all my life and what happened just gave me joy and relief anytime I think about it.

The guy and his parents calls me like a billion times a day,they even offered to pay me back but I refused, collecting the money back is not worth the joy I got from doing what I did.

Thank you for all you did and God shall bless and reward you. I am impressed. You are a role model worth emulating.

Bless you. You have a good heart, keep it.

Guess you missed the part of my submission that clearly stated these things are not enough but they do exist and people are benefiting.....of course when something is not enough everybody there will be lobbying and use of connection...

Well, I agree with you but if we grade it those that get such opportunity cannot be more than 2 out of 10 academics. That's not "enough", that's "grossly inadequate".

Curious345:
truth is that you can actually change my mind ..

Your mind alone wouldn't change the outcome of the election.

Curious345:
tinubu has a track record of what exactly .. please school me

You have your candidate and I have mine. No amount of schooling will change your mind or mine at this material moment. So, let's not waste our both valuable time, let's rest ahead of an engaging new working week. Cheers

peepydelano:
He’s wooing his Oga lol. Sai Atiku our incoming president

Politics is a motherfacking game lolz

Curious345:
Tinubu always getting endorsement from OLD , WEARY LOOKING PEOPLE... YOU SEE!

Men and women blinded by tribe and culture .
..let me tell you this " tinubu will not be president "

We could be having an MKO SITUATION AGAIN.

Why the blackmail now? You are free to support any candidate. That's why they are many. If support is for only one candidate, why are parties many and candidates many? If they are blinded by tribe and culture, you are decieved by youthful look and unguaranteed promises to deliver good governance without prior track record. Which many consider as too much risk to take.

BRATISLAVA:
I don't know much about it, but why should people who don't work be paid anything? This is what promotes laziness and terrible work ethic. What was in their employment contract?

Nice contribution, you know there are some government organizations that are only engaged once in 4 years like INEC and National population Commission. They are without activities till another 4 years

owagbeba:
Bro, you described a very bad working condition: half-pay, no allowance, no vacation, no research fund, no transport allowance, poor working environment, hot office,

Come to think of it, why would any educated person with skill continue work in this horrible condition,When he could use his skills and render services to millions of Nigerians directly?

Are those working in this condition nothing to offer in the private sector?

Or are they truly the educated but no skills who make the bulk of the bureaucrats playing solitaire in government offices as ValCon888 described in his piece?

This is entirely a different debate. Well, to say they have nothing to offer in private sector is why they didn't leave doesn't sound fitting. I think, the public sector has alot of competent, qualified and dependable hands.

In private sectors, there are well structured organisations while some organisations are career traps.
When I was working with an indigenous Telecoms Company, I was having alot of hope for growth, but I starting seeing examples that I am not happy about. People spending 10 years without an evaluation for promotion, some department gets more promoted while the other does not, etc... I started reapplying for jobs else where. And as God will have it, I left for a better place.

The private sector has their own ills, but if you can find a better run organisations, it's better experience. Public sector is not well cared for and too much political influence is a minus for them. In general, private sector offer better growth and better work place experience.

IMASTEX:
Your reply is what I call a sensible debate as it should be unlike those kids that probably skipped debate section in high school. You clearly cited your points which was against the guy's view without needless insults. I think when a system is well structured to run properly which is largely the role of the government, only then will the employee's behavior towards work be well policed. Although, it is still the government "politicians" that use civil service recruitment as political gratification.

Bless you sir. That's another good angle to consider. They, the political class causes a lot of problems. They have something called job slots. All their political thugs and very unqualified candidates will get the jobs after the Legislatures, top executives and heads of judiciaries share the recruitment nos among themselves.

So, you have workers you can control, not ready to work and combined with a very challenging and discouraging working conditions.

JoffreyBeroth:
Thats exactly what he's saying, he is preferring a solution to this problem that you just stated. A lit of politicians in office doing nothing, they need to be cut off

Bless you

Difrent:
These are just conjectures.
ASUU have research grants....and lecturers do go for studies abroad....it may not be enough but it's available thro ugh tetfund.
Any government staff transferred will be paid DTA. It may not be immediately but they do get paid eventually because the Labour leaders won't allow such a government agency be.

With all due respect sir, all that you stated above are not true. And this is causing some people pains, don't trivialize it. Just try to do an undercover investigative journalism, you will be amazed by the facts you will gather.

When it's only IGP and his entourages plus Commissioners in charges of states gets DTA, is that not by privilege already?

How many lecturers get TETFUND? Put it on ratio. How many of them get funded doctorals without paying with their salaries? If you don't belong to the ruling clique, these inadequate fundings becomes elusive.

Take it easy na, the world is not ending anytime soon. You go see your children's children.

Na una make people sell their properties in 1993, saying the world would end that year. Some families never balance till now.

Call people to the path of God but never add gloom and hopelessness to it. Let God have His way in people's heart.

alsudan:
This is what Thiefnubuu plans to import to the National, good thing is that he starts next to zero chance of being elected.

The agberos in Anambra parks were created by Tinubu as well right? Continue, anywhere anus pricks you, you just poops. Sorry o

ValCon888:
The truth is that Twitter as a company is severely bloated. Too many employees doing too little.

Now that a businessman has bought Twitter, he wants to run it like a business.
Cut costs and increase profits.

Employees are a liability when they're not generating revenue to justify their expense.

And this is the same problem with Nigeria.
So many ministers, senators, house of reps, special advisers draining the country's resources.

Too many allowances that don't even make any sense.

Go to the ministries and government agencies to see the high level of inactivity going on.

They're simply pushing pencil, chewing gum, playing solitaire on computer.

We need the the CEO of a Fortune 500 Company to run this country. In less than five years Nigeria will have no debt.

It doesn't take rocket science to fix Nigeria. The people that don't want the country to be fixed prefer Nigeria as it is because they're profiting from the waste and corruption.

The ministries and government parastatals that are very engaging, what do govt offer them in return? Alaye leave matter for Mathias. With the way Nigeria is running it's workers renumeration, do you think workers will be dedicated? Look at ASUU after so much time at home and an agreement reached, Govt still went ahead to pay half salaries, is that a serious govt? You forgot an ebonyi lecturer that was assassinated while doing Uber because of poor pay and strikes, how can you be a govt worker and still be looking for side hustle? Like not out of interest in the hustle but to survive and feed?

Pls be considerate when criticize govt workers.

Have you said anything about the working environment of these people? They use their money to buy chairs and tables to sit on, offices has no AC, no stationeries, no imprest to run office, official vehicles are dead and not replaced,. No staff buses.

Some are work without going on leave for years, they transfer them in-between states with no DTA, they send on course and they have to pay their own money to register and never get any course allowance, I can go on and on. Lecturers use their salaries to fund research, no research fund or grants, even when they are qualified.
Majority of them are frustrated by the system.
Don't be too fast to be critical, investigate as well.

CaptainAyub:
Congratulations on your commissioning as the latest e-urchin, registered 4 days ago

You are e-urchin for Peter Obi and Labour in vain Party. So, why are you running riot over his own urchin activities for Tinubu and APC ?
You have the freedom to be an urchin for Obi, why are you blackmailing him over his own urchin efforts for Tinubu?

Let everyone do their own urchin in peace. It's a Free Urchin World.

CoronaVirusRelo:
Does it apply to Anambra people? Cos they seeked Peter for 8 years with nothing to show of it.

You bad o! But that's 100% truth.

Holybaddo:
Incase you don't know Tinubu and is Famuly Members are on their own

The Wise Yorubas know who to pick


We have suffer beyond Tribalism
We need good President base on merit not Triba

Merit? So, ATIKU-OBI-TINUBU are merits to you?

Na merit you call like that. Na wa o.

jamace:
Remind the guy that when fulani bandits were killing the yorubas, including Pa Fasoranti's daughter, Tinubu abandoned the yorubas and instead supported the fulanis. Remind the guy of Tinubu , "Where are the cows?", speech.
Also, remind the guy that when Sunday Igboho was fighting for the O'odua cause, Tinubu did not give a hoot, reason being that he was eyeing the presidency. Even when Sunday Igboho was imprisoned in Benin Republic by the FGN, prominent yoruba sons including Obj and Wole Soyinka went on solidarity visit to Sunday Igboho in Benin Republic. Tinubu was no where to be found because he was concerned more with his personal ambition.
So, why should the Yorubas support Tinubu, a greedy and selfish individual, who abandoned them in time of trial and persecution?

#ChopTheMoneyVoteWisely#

The guys are still in prison, they are Fulani but not herdsmen. They went on a robbery spree. She only happen to be their victim. I interrogated the accused their case is still in court.

iHateFraudsters:
Is one person "yourba People".

Come on ground and see that nairaland warriors are different from other social media warriors.

Even the Yorubas don't want Tinubu.

Tinubu already knows that, that's why he's fighting tooth and nail to come 2nd in the election.

To avoid further embarrassment.

Who told you Yorubas don't want Tinubu? Dey look.

Ireportlive:
Isn't it foolishness that makes someone pick a tweet of just and individual to attack an ethnic group of 40 million different individuals with different ideology

You see why is foolish to vote their candidate? They have an agenda that is not good for the Yoruba. A word is enough for the wise.

The man even asked a genuine question. When was the last time Igbo people supported a Yoruba agenda?

EdoBoy90:
He even suggested to me that the lady should travel first if the expenses are too much on him, like one or two months he will come over, I was weak he said it.

I think you need to tell him to abort mission. That lady has started giving him pussy and playing love and good girl to hook him. She is a gold digger.

You friend will suffer emotionally, physically and financially for the rest of his life if he falls for this scam.

APCnaPDP:
It is very difficult having proper conversations with you people with this mentality that everyone that doesn’t support Tinubu supports Obi or is Ibo. That mentality is frustrating, it is not always about Yoruba vs Ibo. Seriously.

Unfortunately, that's what it is on this platform. You are just a rare exception.

Iamlakexide:
Not only your future being mortgaged, your sense of respect too... Since it's a crime to ask integrity questions from a presidential candidate.

That's why we have to ensure that your bad propaganda does not win, cos you people are calling black white for us. Calling dirty clothes clean, so that we wouldn't know it's dirty and wear it like a mad people.

Obi is a dirty robe, you guys keep shouting he is clean. Call him dirty, so we know what we are dealing with. So, we don't support fake ass candidate powered by regional and ethnic sentiments.

APCnaPDP:
Atiku has visible business which I am sure you know about. I am sure you have heard about intel logistics, American university etc. I have heard Obi owns Next cash and carry and also started one bank.

What does Tinubu do?

That was after his vice presidential office role where his Principal, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo allege him of record breaking monstrous corruption and selling of govt assets to himself through his close allies.

Now, this is not to attack Atiku, this is to tell you all candidates have their shady dark secrets. People talk about it and we comment, no Atiku person will come for once head for this.

But if we mention Obi corruption deals, zombiedients will rush out to attack, and absolves him of all allegations and defend him as if they ran office together. And at the same time want to comment on Tinubu's wrongs.

All politicians in Nigeria are corrupt including Peter Obi. If you don't want to hear that of obi, we don't want to hear that of Atiku or Tinubu as well.

Don't paint Tinubu so bad and sell Obi as saint. They are all smart thieves in the devilish business of progressing at the expense of the people.

So, Tinubu does what Obi, Atiku, Kwakwanso, Ojukwu etc does. They are in same business.
