You must be living in Mars, not in Nigeria. See the level which ethnic bigotry has taken you to.

PlasmaTV:
We dey borrow for Naija sha. Ahhahn!!! See money! Billions of dollars. The way our country borrows, one would think we don't generate any source of income.

Some senators and contractors will be praying for the loans to be approved on time because its payday for them.

Everybody can see how much this government wants to invest in power. We don't want to hear any excuses come 2027 about how/why electricity isn't constant ooo.

Only Senator Oyewumi Kamorudeen Olalere is still with the PDP.
_{His District, Osun West is the home district of Gov Adeleke}

I believe they currently have the 2/3 majority.
What do you think?

WhizdomXX:
If you mean all three contesting separately. I doubt. Atiku has resigned from PDP now.

WhizdomXX:
Do you mean Atiku and Obi will contest under ADC and get votes from only NE and SE? I don't understand the divide.

lionshare:
Abeg decode this formula: Abure, LP, Wike, PDP, North East, South East, Votes, Divide, Atiku, Obi, ADC.

Wallade:
You may have to go and watch the video of the Senate session when she was suspended again. Let me remind you:

She was placed on six months suspension without pay and ordered to apologize formally to the Senate for her unruly, disrespectful, disruptive and shameful behavior in the Senate on that day. Other wise, upon expiration of six months, the Senate will decide to extend her suspension provided she didn't do the apology.

Amotolongbo:
Let's break it down:
- 7 men + 7 wives = 14 adults
- Each of the 14 adults has 7 children, so:
- Total children = 14 x 7 = 98
- Total number of people = 14 adults + 98 children = 112

So, the total number of people is 112..

To those getting 63.
The question didn’t say each couple. It said each man and wife

we're all animals, what makes you think you're unique?, and FYI, we cannot stop living like them.

, before Christianity humans existed. We study humans not religion.

harmargedon:
come on bro, everyone can cook for themselves. It's not a woman's thing.
Aren't we animals too?

harmargedon:
when you compare what we call marriage to what animals that truly get married you'll see that we are just forcing it on ourselves. Pigeons are a good example, you remember how they used Pigeons for conveying messages in the old times. How did they do it, a party holds the other couple(female or male), then whoever needs to send a message attaches it to the pigeon then releases it. The pigeon will fly to wherever its partner is.
Pigeons will never mate another until if eventually it's partner dies. Its till death do them part.

But for humans, marriage was created for peace sake. Imagine dating a girl and another man starts asking her out, you'll be devastated right, and if you were to be in power, it would result to war. So paying bride price and owning her is a way to telling other men she's taken. But after that what happens, you start getting attracted to other ladies 'yes' that shows the marriage isn't for you. So you marry the second, third, fifth, till as much as your age permits.
If humans can understand like other animals, chickens and goats, we would just copulate for kids sake only.

Someome Trump is threatening to revoke his citizenship? Dude was born and raised in SA. I think he travel to the US on a student visa then started working illegally which would be enough grounds for his citizenship to be revoked by a hostile government.

mctech:
You have the same chances as he does if you are able to find your way to the USA and attain citizenship.

A friend who moved over said that the first thing he saw when he landed at JFK Airport was 'Welcome to the land of opportunities.'
He said that statement is indeed true. Dude is now wealthy. Another person said what he achieved in seven years, he can never get in Nigeria in fifty.

The founding fathers of the country intentionally made it so. The only thing that can limit what you can achieve in the USA is yourself.

Even in politics, the ONLY thing an immigrant can't be is the PRESIDENT.

🌍 Big Win for Nigeria on the Global Stage

Two Nigerian-born entrepreneurs, Adebayo “Bayo” Ogunlesi and Tope Awotona, have landed on the prestigious Forbes 2025 list of America’s Richest Immigrants — and their success stories are nothing short of inspiring. Eyes Of Lagos reports,

Out of 125 billionaires from 41 countries, these two Nigerians are flying the green-white-green flag high in the world of finance and technology.
💼 Meet the Billionaire Duo:
1. Adebayo Ogunlesi – $2.4 Billion

Ranked 77th, Ogunlesi made his fortune in private equity, particularly through his leadership at Global Infrastructure Partners, where he’s made high-stakes deals in aviation, energy, and infrastructure.

Fun fact: He once served as an advisor to U.S. President Donald Trump. But trust Nigerians — we’re not surprised. Bayo has always played in the big leagues.
2. Tope Awotona – $1.4 Billion

Coming in at 106th, Awotona is the founder of Calendly, the popular scheduling app used by millions across the globe. He built it from scratch — and did we mention it started as a side hustle?

Tope’s journey from Lagos to the heart of Silicon Valley shows that tech money no dey discriminate — just bring sense, code, and ambition.
🌟 The Bigger Picture: Immigrant Hustle is Real

According to Forbes, 93% of the immigrants on the list are self-made, building their wealth from scratch in industries like:

Tech

Finance

Pharmaceuticals

Energy drinks (yes, really)

From Elon Musk to Jay Chaudhry, immigrant billionaires now make up 14% of all U.S. billionaires, controlling 18% of total billionaire wealth.
🇿🇦 Africa Representing Strong

Aside from Nigeria, Africa is holding its own:

Elon Musk (South Africa) – $393.1B

Patrick Soon-Shiong (South Africa) – $5.6B

Rodney Sacks (South Africa) – $3.6B

Haim Saban (Egypt) – $3.1B

Marc Lasry (Morocco) – $1.9B

Bharat Desai (Kenya) – $1.6B

Together, these names prove that the immigrant mindset — built on resilience, hustle, and smart risk — continues to shape the U.S. economic story.
💰 Top 10 America’s Richest Immigrants (2025)

Elon Musk – $393.1B

Sergey Brin – $139.7B

Jensen Huang – $137.9B

Thomas Peterffy – $67.9B

✨ Final Thoughts from Eyes of Lagos

As Lagosians, we love to see it: Naija no dey carry last, especially when it comes to global money moves. Ogunlesi and Awotona prove that with grit and grace, the world is our market.
